aWa="lupply, as well as other concessions, fey which negotia-
tions are in pmeme.
This con on has bean granted by the Emperor of the
French. and has for its object the supplying water from the
river Verdon to Ale (Provence. In the south of France. The
water will be used far Irrigates the lands on its route, and
also for supplying the towns with pore water, which is greatly
needed, upon the same principle as our kliglish water cow-
ptnien the shamed which, as Is well known, stand at very large
Eiren hd ama, having Leroy= enormously In value, besides pay-
extraordinary dividends.
e concession has been panted for 90 years, and among
other privileges It may be mentioned that the sum of four mil-
lions of franca (SIO8,000) cash subvention, or money gift, has
been made by the Free= doveranuent, the Department of the
Bouclies-du-RhOne, and the town of Alt to the holders of the
soncemion.
The beneficial results In southern countries of irrigation are
well known. In warm climates, where agriculture Is almost
impossible without water, laud, otherwise of small and nominal
value, is known to produce, when supplied and Irrigated, four
=weeny* crops every year ; hence the great rise in the value of
such land to five or els times Its original value, Una securing a
to the Company from subscribers coming forward
large, avidity Octal= their share of the supply of the water.
This revenue will be Increased by the use of the water for
household and sanitary purposes, and by Its employment as
hydraulic power, for which there is a great demand.
The couesedon being for 98 years, gives this Company for all
practical purposes of revenue a complete monopoly of the
supply ; the value of which may well be estimated by the !or-
dinate shareholders in the existing English wider companies.
The whole of the works are contracted for by eminent con-
tractors for a fixed sum : they have been engaged upon them
since June last, and are bound to complete them by December,
1867, less than three years.

however, the Directon are able to give the most satisfactory

CORRESPONDENCE WITH THE UNITED

STATICS.

A collection of offuiial papers concerning North
America was issued yesterday. Their dates extend
from the end of October to the middle of Jantuiry
last.

In a letter, written to Lord Russell in purrn-
anoe of Mr. 13eward's instructions, dated Novem-
ber 23, Mr. Adams sets forth the enterprime by
which the peace of the citizens of the United States
jeopar by persons harboured in Canada,
and complains that the Queen's government had
done nothing to supply the demonstrated defects of
the laws intended to guard its neutrality. In '
despatch to Lord Lyons, dated November 26, Karl
Russell reviews the main topes of Mr. Seward's
despatch to Mr. Adams. Mr. Seward had re-
ferred to the American Act of March 10, 1838,
making the laws of the United States more efficient
foe the protection of the neutrality of the republic,
as an example of what might have been expected of
Great Britain wider similar circumstances. Lord
Russell argues that the question is a difficult one,
and that an act like that of 1838 would not meet
it. He continues :

I my else dame that dories the late issurredion in
Poised, dthessit the govoisessato of Audis and Prussia
were, hem to timed ewe lateceds, =damnable. to
that Memeed sad ahheugh their edam of on
wed mush more available and much moss than
oars ever can be, yet insurgent expeditioes from Galicia
and from the derby of Posen wend very frequent mom-
ream The Gossiper of Canada, it is admitted by the
United Stake governmeet, has dens all that he could
lawfully de; and if hie offsets should fail, sad other
memuree of moreemos ecosideat with the nation of our
goverment AO be found requWis, her Majesty's govern-
ment will not hesitate to propose then.
He accepts the Isaias to Isresiaati the slue
treaty, with the hope that when peace is restored,
the former agreement may be renewed, as advan-
tageous to both parties. To Mr. Seward's remarks
that the neutrality proclaimed by her Majesty
has failed as well in the British home ports as in
the colonies ; that it must continue to fail so long
as asylum is allowed there to active agents of the
enemies of the United States, and so long as those
persons are in any way able, by evasion or other-
wise, to use the British ports and British borders
as a base for felonious depredations ; and that the
only remedy which the government of the United
States is able to conceive is the " recognition by
her Majesty's government of the first and exclu-
sive sovereignty of the United States in all the
waters and territories legally subject to the juris-
diction of this government." Earl Russell replies
that this proposal amounts to nothing lees than a
demand that Great Britain should cease to acknow-
ledge the belligerent character of the Southern
States, and treat the Southern citizens as felons
and pirates, and he enters into a general defence
of the recognition of the belligerent character of
the Confederates by this country. Be adds :
Seth being the state of affairs, her Majesty's government
are not prepared either to deny to the Southern States bel-
limed MOM or to propose to parliament to make the laws
of the United Kingdom generally men stringent. . . Her
Majeetys government cannot find in the hostilities which
prevail on the continent of North America any justification
for 8o altering the laws of the United Kingdom as to deprive
the citizens of the Southern States of America of that
asylum which Great Britain has always afforded to men of
all nations and at all political *Dices.
It will be observed in the sequel that in Canada
at least this unbending policy has not been main-
tained, but that the Goveruor-General was soon
instructed to seek increased power to remove
persons who plot against a friendly State. Lord
Russell proceeds to say that there has been
much in the conduct of the American govern-
ment of which he might complain ; but he trust.
in the returning sense of justice and respect
for law which usually distinguish the United
States, though for a time they are obscured.
The welfare and prosperity of the United States
are earnestly desired by the government of her
Majesty, and the necessity of securing peace and
harmony on the border between the Bri-
tish and the United States territory is fully
acknowledged. With this disposition on both sides
her Majesty's government cannot doubt that ade-
quate means of repression will be found, and that
signal failure will attend any wicked attempts
which may be made to involve the two nations in the
calamities of war. It is a pleasure to Earl Russell
to conclude his despatch by noticing the handsome
terms in which the Secretary of State declares him-
self not only able, but obliged, to acknowledge that
the Canadian authority his, in the last instance
mentioned, "thus far co-operated with this govern-
ment in faithful and diligent efforts to bring the
disturbers of public peace to justice." Her Ma-
jesty's government trust such faithful co-operation
in the performance of friendly offices may long con-
tinue on both sides.

AMALGAMATION OE LONDON BOAT-CLUBS. —A
meeting of the renresentativa of the London boat-dubs,
for the purpose of having a general opening day on the
Thames-and other important beau:ems, was beM last night
at Radley's Hotel, Bridge-street. A large number of gentle-
men sat down to dinner. and Mr. Herbert Playford, of the
London Bowing Club, Laving taken the chair, opened the
proceeding by stating that the meeting had been called
together, firstly, for the purpose of considering whether
it was not advisable for the interests of boating generally
upon the Thames that they should have a general open-
ing day. If they came to a decision that such should
be the ass, then they must fix time and place, and, this
matter settled, others might arise. A long discussion
then arose, in which all the clubs joined, and it was ulti-
mately resolved that the whole of the metropolitan elate
should open their season on the 25th of Marsh, at Putney,
end a subcommittee was formed of the following gentle-
men, who should consider other minor details connected
with the subject : —Mr. Ebsworth, Twickenham Bowing

Boydell, London Rowing Club ; Mr. F. itichardeon, Nau-
tilus Rowing Club ; Mr. C. W. Ram, Add Rowing Club ;

Themes Rowing Club ; Mr. Limier, West London Rowing
Cob ; Mr. G. T. Purdie, Ilex Rowing Club ; and Mr. J. E.
Brain, Excelsior Rowing Club. The subject of an amal-
gamated club was then token into consideration for the
purpose of forming one great club, from which the Healey
crews should be chosen, and the question was ultimately
left to the sub-committee above named.
