Some of his remarks poskcss an intercst beyond the Province, as serving to indicate the grounds on which the proposition submitted to the Come mittee on Ways and Megns was founded, and the conchisions at which a clearâ€"headed man has arrived in regurd to the immediate eflect of abroggtion of the treaty, with no commercial substitute of any kind. Te a In the first place, Mr. Galt ju.'(it.’wd:hc' readiâ€" ness of the delegates to acquiesce in teciprocal lâ€"gislation instead of a treaty, as the basis of future intercourse, and « their further| awillingâ€" noss to disregard . points of form, ll:;::lt were found â€"to interfore with the object in ‘view. _=It is not by standing up . for minor points," he said, «" that | a man presorves his selfâ€"respect, but by | holding fast to those great points in which more than mere ctiquette is concerned ; " a nemark which we commend to some of the gentlomen At Washington, who would allow the whole qBesâ€" tion.of reciprocity to go by default ratker than give up their punctiliousness in the matter of reopening negotiations. . In sych a case, preâ€" vedence or formality amounts‘to little., “Iu- main end to be attained is the renewal of sdme commerci@l arrangement, which can be regoir ed ouly by resumption of hegotiations, topding to the adjustment of mutually satsfactory terms. â€" To enact the bill now before Congfess or any other bill, without cm)flf?l':lhn ith representative of the Provineés, will be futjle ; for it will give effect to it one view of the question, while really uséful legislation » supposes an arrangement resting upon mu 1 concessions apd securing mutual advan & Althc :?lrin-nmmrilly disposed to a cheorful xpirit among the Provincials, and to holdip a prospect of trade in other directions, a«an uitimate equivalent for the trade t will be lost with the Uhited States, Mr. Gait 1HB CANADIAXN MINISTER ON THE RECIPROCITY NEGOCIATION®. minor points," he presorves his selfer fast to those great px mere ctiquette is con we. commend to so Washington, who aw will be lost with the United States, Mr. Gait irankly . admits the present .«em mt which â€"must follow the cessation of recigroâ€" city. Me expresses great regret at the failure of the late negotiations, "becaube," he‘is geported to have said, <1 belicye iwe cannot suddenly change our customers withâ€" out inconvenience, and because, asa practjcal man, ] cannot shut my eyes to the fact that thore will be a great disturbance of resulting from the termination of the treaty." Undoubtedly ; and from this @grea@t distubâ€" ance of trade " our mercantile community will suffer, as well as the people of the Provintes. It is not possible suddenly to arrest a trade so vast as that which has grown up under the treaty, without producing inconvehicnce &and loss on both sides of the Lakes, Comparaâ€" tively, of course, the disturbance will be lers scriously felt by this country than by Canada, because, in our case, the amount of trade to be affected bears a smaller proportion to our aggregate of trade.‘. BomeTnterests, especially upon the frontier, will neverthcl ss sufler soâ€" riously, and, in the existing position of busiâ€" ness matters, beset, as they are, with uncer» tainty; we caunot prudently afford to be indifâ€" ferent to a trade amounting to sixty or seventy millions annually. & % The Canadian Minister of Finance hasavei â€" d himsclf of a polititical banguet to explain ind v.adicate to his countrymen the course Mr. Galt is " not without hope that the t me is not remote when the United States will testore the trade to a satisfactory footing." If Congress were not given over to the negro, to the neglect of the vast fioancial and commerâ€" cial â€" problums which await solution, we too should hope that a f w« months would suflice ty establish relations of reciprocal trade more liberal in their nature, and consequently more fruitful of profit than the relation which has terminated. â€" Sooner or later, we are confident, such a result will be reached ; and meanwhile, perhaps, a little experiense of the evils, as well as the losses, which the disarrangement of legitimate commerce on the northern frontier will occasion, may belp to bring some of our Congressional obstructives to their senses. To hasten this result, hov.ever, our businegs people should «xert‘ themselves to impress upon Congress the importance of the inferest ut stake, and the necessity of caring forsthem promptly and practically, We have réasons for belicving that the Secretary of the Treaâ€" sury appreciates the embarrassment to his Doâ€" partment, and the injury to the revenue which will be inevitabie if no arrangement be enterâ€" ed into. The measure prepared by the Comâ€" mittec of Ways and. Mcans is in itsclf proof that that body at length bâ€"gin« to realize the necessity of action. _ It is therefore expedient for the commercial bodies of our city to make theainselves heard upon the subject ; as it is also ;'::‘rdicnt for those who are familiar with the trade carried on under the treaty, and who will be the first to feel the effects of its disconâ€" tinuance, to exert themselves by petition and otherwise to induce the Ways and Mcans Committee to revise its scheme, and adapt it more judiciously to the purpose contemplated . The Chamber of Commerce of this city might with particular proprity, take the lead in the movement ; for having last year adopted a reâ€" port in favor of a renewal of the old treaty, with modifications, its members may be ::r posed to look with more than common & faction upon the liberal terms which the Provinces are now prepared to sanction.â€"N. Y. Times. We notice with, regret, by the Peterâ€" borough papers, the death of Col. Walter Crawford, who has for the last thirtyâ€"five years been a resident of that County, .Col. Crawford wasa true type of an Irish gentleman, . He saw some service in the army in hbis earlier days, and after coming to this Country was ap~ pointed Crown Lands Agent for the County of Peterborough, a Position which be hbeld until the office was abolished in 1861. . He has reached his eightyâ€"sixth year, but up to a few years ago wore his age so well that he would hardly have been suspected of having passed his three score years and ten. . He has how» ever for a year or two been very feeble, and his death was not unlooked for. In his death the County loses another of the links, which cannect t)e presentgeneration with tq past. â€"Ha Apectator.; Nzw Arusâ€"To Mr. Watkin belongs the hongr for bringing for the first time a deeply important question beforé Parliament, and for rticular infoufation respecting it he in inâ€" debted to his. American experience. â€" The «jwestion which be basmooted involves a comâ€" plete revolution in the kind of rifies with which the British soldiers are armed, and which we believe will surcly come, as came the revolution from the = old brown Bess" to the Entficld. ~ Mr. Watkin referred to the exâ€" ecllence attained by the Spencer and the Hay siflies manufactured in the United States, loadâ€" ed at the breach and firing repeated shotsâ€" seven and upwards. These rifies. are not a purely American invention, but they are an American improvement and adeptation of sevâ€" eral European ideas, and so far they are the most terribly destractive weapons ever put into Abe hands of man, or &t least of which we have any record in hbistory. The great genius and forte of the people of the United Btutes lie in improvements of this kind ; and it would be gross folly for other people not to avail themselves of any real progress made, These new rifles do not require powder and shot and caps, like the Entfield, or othâ€"rs in use; but the cartridge, in a brass tube, conâ€" tains the whole charge tegether with the deâ€" tonating powder, and they fire off one after another with the rapidity of a revolver pistol, The bullet is made a little larger than the. barrel, and the force with which it is propellied is prodigious. Mr. Watkin speaks of its killâ€" ing at 2,000 yardsâ€"cousiderably over a mile. It is related that a company or regiment of the Federal army, armed with these rifies beâ€" fore Pctersburg, completely demoralized a much larger body of Confederates, from the force and rapidityof their fire. ‘The effect is. much greater than multiplying one ma«s seven times, It is also related of ‘:iz Bpencer rifles that" they kill with fatal precision at a much great distance than the report of the discharge can be heard, and that on several occasions in the late war, the Southerners were confused from death coming, as it were, from the air, they not seeing cither the fiash or hearing the discharge of arms. The cost of changing the whole service may be great. . But cost is nothâ€" ing compared with having the very best weapâ€" ons, when men stand ut in mortal combat before their enemies to their libertics and their homes.â€"Montreal Gazetie, present .ecm the cessation of reci s great regret at negotiations, "becar the 3 1 ‘:
