The settlement of the fiahery question has already created an argry controversy between the Government and opposite organs. Several official newspapers, guided by the tone of American Dispatches, have little praise for 6ir Charles Tnpper; others say they will content themselves with congratulating the Commissioners on the conclusion of tnur labors until the treaty is puolishei. The Libeials.or opposition papers.nuanlmouslv deplore the alleged result, a Montreal and a Halifax newspaper accusing Messrs. Tnpper and Chamierl&in of wilfully sacrificing Canadian interests. It has been arranged that the next international move will be in the direction of the location of the tourdarv line between British Columbia, the most easterly province o! the Dj minion, 8Dd Alaska in the event of a satisfactory settlement of the fishery question. The matter is to tte submitted to a commiss'on on wbich England will be represented. The Canadian Government, it appears, has been pressing for the appointment of a commist ion lor over a year pa?t The dij puted territory involved comprises mmy thcuaida of sauare miles. The gold regions are located near the supposed bounddary Hi e, but as tbe jurisdiction of both countries is doubtful, considerable lwleiEims prevails General Cameroo, official secretary to the Fishery Commission, will probably be one of the Canadian Commissioners.

Witness the igaomimaas Harrender of our fisheries by Mr. Caamoerlain, Mr. West acd Sir Charles Tnpper. Mr. Chamberlain waa doubtless more interested in finding a market for his woolen screws than in obtaining a better market for Canadian fish. From the first it was apparent that the negotiations mu3i tad either in a complete fizzle or a sacrifice of Canada's interests. The worst has har pened. It is announced that Mr. Chamberlain, Eir Charles Tupper, Mr. Thomson, and the other parties to the surrender, are quite satisfied with the result. How could they be otherwise? Could they, with any show of decency and self respect, express dissatisfaction with their own work? Did Lenedict Arnold ever express dsssatisfaction over his own treachery ? 1 1 is urged that the surrender should not be discussed lest it be rejected by the United States Senate, If the American Senators reject the treaty they will prove themselves better friends of Canada than ttoae whose duty it was to protect and defend our interests before the commission." The News eays: "There is one thing pretty certain, and that is that Canada will not be made a sacrifice in this matter as she has been often before in others. But if it should turn out that tbe tendencies of any proposed agreements are In that direction, then let the government at 0:tawa look to it. It is strong now, but before the public clamor such a course would create, its support must speedily fall away and bring ruin to it " The Mail (.Independent) of Toronto, commentirg on the treaty says: "As a matter of fact it was foreordained that the Dominion should Buffer. Mr. Chamberlain told us in so many words tu at he had come to America to terminate the fiahery dispute eomebow, and the English journals frankly stated that England could not aflord to quarrel with her best foreign customer for the sake of our fish. It has been the fate of Canada from the beginning to suffer for imperial interests, but in this instance the cup presented to oar lips appeara to be an unusually bitter one.' Tte Montreal Herald says: "We have, therefore, simply got nothing, while we have piven up oar -touch and trade' contention which the fleet was fitted out to enforce in 1885, and have conceded everything. Common justice to Sir Caarlea compels us to reserve our critiscisms until we learn what the treaty means, but we fear the worst from the tone of the American prees. We have not learned what efforts, 1! any, were made to get our fish admitted free, but feel that any arrangement abort of ttat will be looked upon as a f iilnr by our fishermen and a sacrifice of Canadian interests." The Halifax Chronicle (Liberal) says: "Dispatches from Washington declare that the treaty just concluded is satisfactory to representatives of the three countries. Tula is quite possible, and yet, it may be very unsatisfactory to the people of one of the countries at least. From authentic reports reciprocity is left out of the act. It is not even stipulated that Canadian fishermen are to have the right to sell their fish in American markets free of duty. What then, in the came of commerce, is there to hope for in the treaty wbich has now been signed. Unless, however, we mistake the temper of the country, the people of Canada will resent any surrender of the rights of Canadian fishermen for the mere purpose cf suiting imperial interests. This is a qnestion in which Nova Scotia is especially interested. More than half of the entire fibbing industry in Canada belongs to Nova Scotia.

New Yokk, February 18. Double-leaded and in the moat conspicuous position on Its editorial pege, tne Sao this morning prints the following: "On to 21 of February, 1871, the State of Mais chartered a company to build an 1 an aid west Una of railroad acrow its
northern territory, named the Penobscot aiid Lake Meganiic. An amendment of its rt&rter, made on the 2.3 :h of February, 1!-S1, authorized tbe corporation to lease or oil its line of rood and property 'to any ither railroad company, domestic or for ei?n.' The purpose of this amendment was to enable the Canadian Paciffs Rail way Company to build and operate a portion of its transcontinental line on United Slates soil. Tue same act of the amendment changed the Maine company's name to the International Railway Comp in y of Maine. A subsequent amendment, made on the 14th of March, 1887, extended to the road's lessees or purchasers the time within which it was to be completed to tie 1st of January, 1S89. "The road, property and franchises of the International Railway of Maine were sold to the Canadian Pacific Company and are cow owned by that company, and this Rrltish corporation is building in a hurry the mcst important por'.ion of its entire line, on and across United States territory without the permission and almost without the knowledge of our Congress. "The Gulf of St. Lawrence is closed by Ice for nearly bix months in the year. It is the commercial necessity of the Dominien of Canada to have free access to the winter harbors of her maritime provinces. A map of North America shows that the constructed acd located lice of the Canadian Pacific Railway is the stra'ghtest and shortest from the Pacific ocean to the At-
I lantic. The railroad system of the State ' of Maine connects with all the great winter I hsrbora of the Dominion's maritime proi vinces. The shortest and cheapest cut " a v a ii it i a uom juomreai to an mese narDors, ana particularly to Louis burg, on the island of Cape Breton, ie by the line of the International Railway of Maine from Lake Megan tic to the Mattawamkeag river. Of all tbe ports on this continent, Louisburg is tbe nearest to Liverpool. The Canadian Pacific Company has already published the trip distance thronen this harbor, from Vancouver on the Pacific to Liverpool in England, to be only eleven days. Therefore the Canadian Pacific, which is the Canadian Government on wheels, encouraged by the past, and confident of the future, has determined to take and use a six rod-wide-strip of the State of Maine, in crder to accomplish this shortest route and best connexion, and to trait to British diplomacy and American politics for a sanction of this seizure of the soil of the United Statte. "Maine exceeded her Stale's rights when she authorized one of her railroad corporations to sell its property and franchises to a foreign corporation, to be used and enio ed within her boundaries. Only the Ftderal Government, acting through the Congress and the President, cm confer such authority on a foreign corporation. Commeice between any of our States and a fore'gn country, and foreign commerce across any of the Slates, are exclusively within the power and control of the general Government. The States can not deal with euch foreign commerce at all. It is the veriest exaggeration cf lawlessness on tbe part of the Maine Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company under which tbis British corporation claims the rifht to construct and operate a railroad on United States territory. "It has not the shadow of a right to do iL So wholly destitute of right is this piratical corporation, that if, instead of buying and finishing an uncompleted Maine railroad for its commerce with Europe, it had leased such a line, it culd not lawfully bve transported eoola over it to Halifax, Picton or Louisburg. The first paragraph of the. as yet, unabrogated twenty-ninth article of the treaty of Washington covers imports Into and exports from ports of tbe United States and not Canada. The right of free trao&it from Canadian ports through our territory confeired by the second paragraph of that article, attaches only to importation destined for the Un'.red States and not for Canada, China or Japan. Certainly this right of free transit does not confer on Great Britain the privilege of bulling railroads or constructing canals within tbe territory of the United States. In like manner, no authority caa be got by the Canadian Pacific Railway to build and operate a road in Maine out ot the thirteenth article of the treaty of Washington, which was killed by the partial abrogation of the treaty and the treasury crder of Daniel Manning, but was resurrected and held to be in force for the benefit of the Dominion government on whef Is. That was simply a contrivance to enable Canadian railroads to participate in the inland commerce ot the United Stales, to carry freight from one point in our territory through Canada to another point in cur territory, but not to a Canadian port end thence to Earop?. "No, the State of Maine has no more authority to legalize the operation by a Canadian corporation or railroad within her territorial limits than she has to suspend the navigation laws of tbe United States, on her coast, and admit Dominion vessels to coastwise commerce in all her harbors. Indeed, if it be conceded that, under existirg treaties acd laws, the Canadian Pacific can build or operate a railroad acro33 Maine, the light cf that corporation to build branches from its trunk line southward into all of our-States and Territories must also be conceded. We call upon our Government to summarily suppress this invasion of United States territory by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company." Close of UU Trial. Chicago, February 18.

Pak Chung Yang, the Chinese Minister at Washington, is much shocked at the decollete mode of dress customory in American society. It is evident that Pak is not highly civilized. Yta Thon Lee, a Corean graduate of Yale, who recently married an American maiden at New Haven, Conn., is one of the editors of a weekly tobe cilled the Chinese Evangelist and soon to be started in New York. J. W. January, of M'nonk, 111., when confined in Anders umlle prison, amputated both ot his own feet with a lirge pocset knife. He baa the iuife still, and recently found his feet. Dr. W H. Brail-y, of Philadelphia, had them preserved in alcohol. John L. Sullivan will return to this c an try from Europe early in April. He ia now at Windsor training f ir his iua;ci with Mitchell, and tekts daily wilkj in her Majf s'y's park. The strained rftlitions between Victoria and Sdlliyin s'ill continue, but John L. dota not mind that in the least. Colonel Halbert 8 Greenleaf, a Federal ofheer in the civil wer, now of Rochester, . Y.j has cent to feenator anc, of Njrth Carolina, a fine Jersey bull calf. Colonel Greenleaf says in his letter to the Seoator: "Please acceDt the bull ca'f sent you yesterday as a slight token of my regird for a certain Robel Brigadier,' the worat of the lot." Washington go?sfps, who are always lookicg for a tew eenstiou, have been sayirg of late tbat General Grant's widow hid bten snubbed by President and Mrs Cleveland. They asserted that Mrs. Grant cal'ed cn Mrs. Cleveland and tbat the latter did not return the visit nor even send a card to the former mistress of the WThite House. There is ret tbe slightest foundation for these allegations. Mrs. Grant did not call at the Wnite House duricg her recent stay in Washington, nor did Mrs. Cleveland meet her duringtbat period. Tne inventive genius oi Washington gossip3 will now turn to some new achievement iast as ab surd as this baseless yarn. LIVE STOCK EXPRESS.

News of the establishment cf an enterprise in connection with the cattle trade, to be known as the American Live Stock Express Company, which will make the trip from Chlceeo to the East in forty hours, is not regarded with much enthusiasm among Chicago shippers.
