In the House of Representatives at Washington,
on the let April, Mr. Ward, of New York, from the
Committee on Commerce, reported a joint resolu-

tion setting forth, among other things, in the pre-
amble, that by the treaty made by the President on
the 11th September, 1854, for the purpose of ex•
tending the reciprocity trade between the British
North American colonies and the United States,
nearly all the articles which Canada has to sell are
admitted into the United States free of duty, while
heavy duties are imposed on most of those articles
which the people of the United States have to sell,
with the intention of excluding them from the Cana-
dian markets; and that the President, during the
36th Congress caused to be submitted to the House
an official report, setting forth the inequality and
injustice existing in our present intercourse with
Canada, subversive of the true intent of the
treaty, owing to the subsequent legislation of
Canada; but it beiug desirable that friendly relations
should be continued between the United States and
the British North American provinces, :and that
commercial intercourse should hereafter be carried
on between them upon principles reciprocally bone.,
ficial and satisfactory to both parties, therefore re-
solved :—" That the President be authorised and
required to give notice to the British Government
that it is the wish and intention of the Government
of the United States to terminate, at the end of
twelve months from tho expiration of ten years from
the time the treaty went into operation, such notice
to be given at the expiration of said term of ten
years, to the end that the treaty may bo abrogated
as soon as it can be done under the provisions
thereof, unless a new cosvention shall before that
time be concluded between the two Govern-
ments, by which the provisions shall be abrogated
or so modified as to be mutually satisfactory to
both Governments ; and that the President be,
and is hereby, authorised to appoint three commis-
sioners, by and with the advice and consent of the
Senate, for the revision of the treaty, and to con-
fer with other commissioners duly authorised,
whenever it shall appear to be the wish of the
Government of Great Britain to negotiate a new
treaty between the two Governments and the people
of both Governments, based on the tree principles
of reciprocity, and for the removal of the existing
difficulties."
