UNITED STATES.

W ASHINGTON, Le ec. 15. Phe official instructions frem Secretary Blaine to Minister Lowell, on the modifica tion of the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty, are |} made public. In his letter, Blaine says this convention was made under

UNEXCEPTIONAL AND EXTRAORDINARY CON- DITIONS,

which long since ceased to exist, and that the remarkable development of the United States on the Pacific coast, since then, calls for some essential modification in the treaty. The presumptive intention of the treaty was to place the two powers on 4 plane of perfect equality with respect to the canal, but in practice this would prove utterly delusive and would, instead, sur- render it, if not in form, yet in effeet, to the control of Great Britain. The treaty binds the United States not to use its mili tary force in any precautionary measure, while it leavea the

NAVAL POWER OF GREAT BRITAIN PERFECTLY FREE AND UNRESTRAINED.

The Clayton Bulwer treaty commands this Government not to use a single regi ment of troops to protect its interests in connection with the Inter-oceanic Canal, but to surrender the transit to the guard ianship aud control of the British navy. If no American soldier is to be quartered on the Isthmus to protect the rights of bis | country in the Inter-oceanic Canal, surely, | by the fair logic ef ne itrality, no war vessel | of Great Britain shou'd be permitted to appear in the waters that control either en- | trance to the canal. More. COMPREHENSIVE OBJECTION TO THE TREATY

is urged by this Government. Its pro- visions embody a misconception of the relative positions of Great Britain and the United States with re spect to the interests } of each Government in question pertaining | to this Continent. The Government of | the United States has ne occasion to dis | ayow an aggressive disposition ; its entire | policy establishes its pacific character, and among its chief aims is to cultivate the most friendly and intimate relations with its neighbors, both independent and colonial.

To guard her eastern possessions, Great Britain holds and fortifies all strategic points that control the route to India. At Gibraltar, at Malta, at Cyprus, her fortifications give her the mastery of the Mediterranean. She holds & controlling interest in the Suez Canal, and by her fortifications at Aden and en the Island of Perim she EXCLUDES ALL OTHER POWERS

her right to control the isthmus transit; and |

The record of the court granting Guiteau’s wife a divorce having been produced, Mrs. Dunmire was recalled to the stand this morning. Scoville objocted to much of her testimony, and her direct examination was cut short. It was developed that Guiteau had taken an active part in the campaign of Horace Greeley. The cross examination related to several interviews purported to have eccurred between witness and newspapers, wherein she stated that Guiteau was insane, wit- ness denying every such utterance. Before she left the stand Guiteau made a speech, in which he said that he had the highest respect for Mrs. Dunmire. is married new and has children,” and he wished her all happiness in every walk of life. He showed impatience and seemed relieved when she left the stand.

Sone expert testimony was introduced for the prosecution but no new points: were brovght out. The court adjourned te Mon- day.
