RECIPROCITY.

Tre one happy hit of the Liberal Gov- ernment of Canada has been the giving of a tariff preterence to British goods in the Canrsiimn market. Upon every other point their administration has been

almoat

disappointing to the people and a vind'ca- tion of the conduct of their predecessors. For instance, they deno inced the extrava

gance of their predecessors; and they have i creaved the ordinary exependitures of the government to the extent of four millions of dollare a year. They denounced the National Policy; and they bave been com- peiled to retain the essential! features of the Nationa! Policy taritf,—while the few de- pirtaures from protection which they have made, as in respect to binder twine, have

Tuey have done every- thing that they declared o be wrong, and nothing that they declared to be right ; and the corruption of their numerous “deals” and “jobs” stinks in the nostrils of the people.

But, after much costly bluodering, they have at length afforded differential duties for Britis goods, This action of their’s has won the favour of the British Gov- ernment and people; for the British Gov- ernment and people appreciate advantages in cor markets, even though theyare free tiadeis ?

Chamber of Commerce, is reported to have ssid :

“* The result of this will be that instead ofour goods supplanting and replacing Eng'isk goody in the Canadian market. Envglich goods wili supplant and replace our yoods to the distinct disadvan:age of al] of our mapufacturiog industries. Is it nettime, therefore, to meet our best cus- towers upon a fair and friendly footing ? I+ it not time to have arrangements made by which a commissioner can be appoint- ed to settle all these vexed questions now in diepute, and to moreover arrange for a reciprocal trade treaty, even upon the simplest lines? This reciprocal treaty might go no further or be more inclusive thon the recip ocity treaty of 1854; but if it were enacted and ratified, it wou'd at Jeast secure for the United States in the markets of Canada those trade advantages which the English Manufscterers ard

SHAFTER FEARS DRINK.

He Will not Have the Troops Paid Lets They Should get Demoralized.

Wasuincron, D. C.,- July 21.—General Shafter’s army in Cuta will notfor the preseut receive any pay from the United States Government. This baw been det- inately deciied by the Washington anchors ities upon the recommendation of Major~ General Shafter.

The paymaster’s department of tle army had made definice arrangements to pay the United States army in Cuba some time next week. Paymasters had receiv~ ed orders to proceed to New York city, and there take a vessel to Santiago. Preparations had been carried so far that the money to pay this army had, I aader-~ stand, been put on board one of the trans- porte now at New York. Secretary Aiger cabled General Shafter to this effect, and General Shafter immediately replied advising the Secretary for the present to postpone the payment of the troops,

General Sbafier’s reasons for pot pay~ ing the troops upder his command at the present time were very forcible. He ard in his despatch thatthe distribution of more than @ million dollara among twenty thousand troops in foreign territory would have a most demoraliziog effect upon the entire army. He intimated that the things needed by the men could be suppli- ed by the government, and by the people of Santiago.

The money intended for the troops at Santiago has been temporarily deposited

in the Sub-Treasury at New York. The troops will not be paid forat least a month.
