The Treaty expires on the sixteenth of March next. The United States, through their press, have been advocating the policy of refusing to renew the Treaty, and Annexation: their Consuls (witness Consul Potter, of Montreal.) have declared that the “only way to bring about Annexation isto starve | us into it by refusal of Reciprocity; their Se- nators and Congressmen make it their daily | talk; their Secretary, Mr. McCulloch, in his Annual Report, deprecat s the idea of renewal ou the former basis; and to crown the summit of their insolence and coercion, we find that the President, in his Adress, expresses ap- proval of this policy, and looks forward with pleasure to the termination of the Treaty. Now, what should our course be ?—to beg the | United States Government for its continu-| ance ?—to ask as a favor that anofher year!

and so far from desiring a renewal which is un- fair unto one of the leadin-: trade and foremost interests of our Provinces, we hope that no such Treaty will he renewed. Why should Americans come down here and get British Registers for their vessels, when our vessels are refused similar privileges?

The New York Tiibune says: ‘* The reason why Drake’s Plantation Bitters are so universally used and have such an immense sale is, that they are always made up to the original standard, of highly invigorating material and of pure quality, although the prices have so largely advanced,” &c.

The 7r:bune just hits the nail on the head. The Plantation Bitters are not only made of pure mate- rial, but the people are tuld what itis. The Recipe is published around each Bottle, and the bottles are not reduced in size. At least twenty imitations and counterfeits have sprung up. They impose upon the people once, and that’s the last of them.

The Plantation Bitters are now used in ail the Government Hospitals, are recommended by the best physicians, and are warranted to produce an immediate beucficial effect. Facts are stubborn things.

“«* * * JTowe much to you, for I verily be- lieve the Plantation Bitters have saved my life.

“ Kev. W. H. WagGoner, Madrid, N.Y.”

«* * * Thou wilt send me two bottles more of thy Plantation Bittere. My wife has been greatly benefitted by their use. Thy friend,

your Plantation Bitters, the popularity of which

are daily increasing with the guests of var house, ‘Sykes, Cuapwick & Co.,

*¢ Proprietors Willards’s Hotel, Washington, D.C.”

In the course of hum orvus allusions to the passing events of the day, the worthly Commodore took a flight from Abraham Lincoln to Ada Menken, and from Asiley’s to L’Africaine, the latter of which production he bid recently witnessed, and begyed to make one remark about. He had often heard of very indiscreet acts on the part of persons entrusted with the command of ships, but he must observe, enpassart, that the behaviour of Vasco de Gamu in leaving his ship, while he saw running a strong gale) upon a lee shere, to visit an admiral, was very | reprehensible conduct, which, if repeated, | ought certainly not to be overlooked.
