No one can deny that the oljects sought to be efftected by thase who proposed the Washington Conterence were in the highâ€" eat degree important. No one can deny that the preservation of peace and the resto:ation of friendly relations between G:eat Britain and the United States are matters which concern not only the two nations mere directlyeinterested, but the whole world.

And yet with such moâ€" mentous questions hanging in the balance, with the future welfire of Christendom, the future progress of civilization at stake, there have been men here and in the United _ States who from first to last hare re garded the whole question from a mere party stamipnint, and have only looked upon the Treaty as something upon which to base a party ory, or found a number of miarep.esentations wherewith to injuare the charscter and position of a political .rival. We do not envy the feelings of men who could thus act. Narrowâ€"mindei and bound down by prejudice, what dan« gerous guides of public opinion are they! How uiterly deficient must they be in every stitesmanlike quality, and _ how fatally the future prospects of this country would be injured were the administration of its affhirs entrusted t> such ‘men.

Finally the arbitration b «ard rejected our whole claim for consequenâ€" tial damages, â€"deciaring that it could not even give it consideration, much lees allow it. When this point was reached, England was ready to proceed wilh the . arbitration, and the Treaty wus Viewed aright, however, the Treaty of Washington And its ratification may be regarded as a triumph for both nations If we believe in Christian civilizition, if we havre any faith in that code of morals which teaches «bove all other things the necessity of kindly charity and mutua\ forbearance, then we must perforce look upon this last result of Anglo cessions, these eflorts on the part of both nations to promote good feeling, grand results have been obtained, and it is no light honour for Canads and Canada‘s statesmen to have participated in this, the proudest victory which Peace has won for many a year. Had the concession asked of us been greater, had the Dominion Government frailed to obtain any settleâ€" ment of the Fenian claims, we should have been accepting an enormous responâ€" sibility had we refused to do our part toward»= giving effect to the Treaty. Under such circymstances we can scarcely fail, as we said before, to regard with feelings of contempt, those who either here or elsewhere, looked on this great question from & party stand point alone. The course pursued by the Oppoâ€" sition in this country during the past five years, might indeed, have prevented us from hoping any better things from them, yet we must confess that we believed they would hare approached a subject of such dii. Fortunately, however, those who did all they could to prevent the ratiticaâ€" ties of the Treaty, to prolon; and inten sify the unfriendly relations which existed between the greatest Empire and the greatest Republic of modern times, and more than all, to check the progress and We feel contiient that this is the view which will generally be taken of the mat« ter in the future, and we are equally sure that it is held by a large majority of the people of both nations toâ€"day. The Treaty is a victory for both Great Britain and America, and it is one from which each derives equal glory. There should be no question as to which has got the best of the other, In this as in all international arrangements of a similar nature, there have necessarily been concessions on both sides. Great Britain conceded something, the United States Somceded something, and Canada, the first colony in the Empire, gave up something also, for which however she receives a substantial return. By these mutual conâ€" As you announce. some time ago Mr. Merrill has resigned the Superintendency of the Government Works on the Ottawa. The situation is a very important one, probably the must important oftice of the kind in the gift of the Sovernment.

We believe that it will be so regarded. It is easy enough to sneer at the. Treaty, to defame those who were instrumental in bringing it about, but we believe that in future years, when thos» who for sellish party ends have sought to misrepresent all matters connected with it have passed away, in all the record of Angloâ€"Saxon fame nothing will shine with a brighter an4 m re deathless lustre than this peaceful triumph of diplomacy, ths noble and successful efftort to soive, by amic.ble means, questions which in the days gone by would most assuredly have led to war with all its atten lant train of misery and desolation. e To the E itor of the OTTAWA TIXRY : Dear Sir,â€"Reassured by the deep inter eat which you have always taken in everyâ€" thing concerning the Ottawa Valley, and believing thas you still entertain the same hearty wish and sincere goodâ€"will for: its welfare, I presume to beg space in your paper for a few brief sentences. destroy the prosperity of this country. bave failed in their wicked and unpatrio tio efforts, and the Treaty of Washington in ‘an established ftact.

Their conference was long and earnest. I heard afterward that De Lacy tried again to bring about an understan iing, and even admitted that he had Lesn instructed to use every effort to induce me to apologize; but that Lane told him that he was satistied that it would be perfectly useless to enileavor to obtain any retracâ€" tion or apology from me. ‘At last De Lacy left, bowing ceremoniously to me as he quitted the room, and then Lane turnâ€" ed to me. " It i« settled for to morrow morning at fivre o‘clock, behind the Phenician ruins on Corradino ; pistols, of course, We had better have some dinner now, and that will give you an hour or two before you turn in w see after any business you want to attend to.

(Continued, avenging what | had induced myself to consider his maliciously false imputations upon Miss Cornewall. . _1 had but little to do in the way of preparation, and that little was #0on done ; a letter to mother, another to Rose, a few lines to one or two old friends on the chance of the worst ; and then Lane and I drew our chairs up to the window, and smoked and talked until our watches warned us that with the prospect of an early journey before us, we could no longer deier going to bed. Some strange facts connected with the disappearance of a literary gentieman during the lite war hive only recently been brought to light. The circumstances of the case are as tollows.â€"Among other Englishmen who remained in Paris after the imP-}mo--t was Mr. Hutton Dowling whn used to write for the Builder and some stientific rpon. tie wis also the author of several works, his most successâ€" ful mme being &a book of metric tables, printed by Mesers. Jockwood &Co In Nove r Mr. Dowling got weary of reâ€" maining in Paris, and mide up his mind to leave the beleazured city in company with a numhber of his compatriots, who were allowed to depart under the charge of Mr. Woodhouse, of the British Em bassy, After pasaing through the Prusâ€" siin l nes the party split up, one portion desiring to gct home through Beigium, and the other portion, having :no money, being obliged to maike for Versailles with Mr. secretary Woodhouse. Mr. Dowling went with the first portion, and after he lett Paris his wife and children, who reâ€" mained behind, never saw him again. After months of fruitliess search, Mrs. Dowling thought of writing to her hus band‘s publisher (who did not know her address), and to her astonishment she learned that Mr. Dowling had written to that gentleman towards the middle of December, 1870, simply luting that hef was confined as a prisoner of war at Stralsund, was well treated, but was in want of money. It was clear that he had not been permitted to say more. The money was forwarded with all the expediâ€" ton possible, but the captive was dead before it arrived at that bitterly cold point of Germany where he had been thrown into prison. A communication was adâ€" dressed a couple of months ago to the commard nt of stralsund to ask fo> any information he could afford, and that offiâ€" cer gave some particulars of Mr. Dowling‘s death, which was â€"evidently iroduoed by hud.fi:p and the climate, but declared himself unable to say why he had been made a prisoner of war. ‘The British l-‘oroi&()flioe hxas been applied to, and in due time some explanation may be afforded of this painful case. > No _ Yesterdsy was probably as hot a day in London as any which has occurred in many years. Ateight o‘clock in the morning the thermometer was 76 deg. in the shade, and by two p.m. had reached 85. The sun temperature reached 150 deg. Heary distant thunder was heard in the afternoon. and in some places a few drops of rain fell, but there was nothing which could be called‘a storm. In the provinces it was otherwise. Fromalmost all m.n of Engâ€" land we hear of th.nder a d ‘+torms of extraordinary violence, and in many inâ€" stances fatal results to huauman life {un been reported. At Noninghm;,dyuterdq «fternoon, a pensioner nam Carter, while sheltering under a tree, was struck by the lightning and instantly killed Another m«in who was within two yards of him escaped unhurt. In the town a youth while at work at a prinviing press, was struck and seriously inj.red, being c n veyed home insensible. Uther casuaities are reported. The storm over the North umberlind coast raged for an hour. A vlack cloud settle i on the sea ; the light ning was territic. A fHâ€"et of Scotch fishing boats were proceeding out of the Tyne. t‘he lightning struck the foremost of the Ten Brothers, of Eyemouth, and killed John Atchison who was forward, injuring L. Rutherford and R Jacks. kutherford is dying and Jacks will recover The bea on on ihâ€" soutb side of the Tyne was sruck. and John Purvis, pilot, was thrown down and severely hurt. Pcrm have been injured also as Newcastle f G:teshead ‘by the lightning. the heary raies and hail. A boiler burst at Quseborne just befor the express train . n the Northâ€" eastern R«ilway came up, and part of the boiler was thrown on to theline, The exâ€" prâ€" ss was brought up before injur wasdone but it is reported one man was killeq in the pottery where the explosion occurred Near Bradford a man named William Scott was suidenly overtaken by the rising of the water and drowned. The Midland line between Bradford and ueeds was blocked in consequence of the bursting of a milil dam on the hiliside over Thackley tunnel. The Scotch express could aot M‘yl:d qnitnneo and conâ€" equently conve ts passengers to mllold,whnoo they proceeded by the (Great Northern train to London and the South. Thot{:ntlm who was killed by il.ishmln‘in storm of Monday, mentionâ€" ed yesterday, at Low Mowtho ne, was Mr. Robert Tuan. son of one of tho‘?rinci- rld, farmers of the Yorkshire Wold Valley, He was walking across a grass field towards the house, returning from ordering some ’women to get aw :y as a storm was coming, when he was struck. The provincial papers devote several columns to report.ng the storms, which in the midland and northern counties appear to have hbeen Of}> a most alarming character. The Liverpool Mercury says : A thunderâ€"storm of a most appalling character visited Liverpool and the district yosterday, commencing. s on after noon, and lasting almost continuously far into the night. In the earlier hours of the storm the entire heavens were frequently overshadowed with clouds. ~The electrical discharges were exceedingly vivid,â€"thunder cruhu...boiu‘ occasionally absolutely deafening.
