MORE ANNEXATION. 1t would seem from
the following extracts from the Liverpool Stan.
dard of the Sd inst, that the people of Canada
are becoming restless under their colonial sys-
tenn, and begin to desire to annex themselves
and territory to the United States The STAN
dard publishes an address from Canada to the
conservative members of the British Parlia-
meat, in which it is sad
"Whether, therefore, England wishes it or
not, Canada will certainly cut her connection
Immediately.
''The Canadians, by joining the United
States, will continue all the privileges which
England's colonies enjoy under free trade sys,
tenn.
'sIn losing the British American colonies,
England will lose employment for 80, 900
sailors, and the finest naval nursery in the
world, the amount Of tonnage in that trade
being greater than that of the trade to all
India and China.
"But it is not simple loss 10 England; the
command Of the St. Lawrence will give gain
to America equal in extent to our loss, thereby
trebling her naval power, while it leaves her
with no rival or enemy in the north"
The Standard says:-
"We cannot perceive upon what plea we
can resist such movement on the part of Ca
nada, if it be resolved upon; or even defend
much longer the granting of supplies to meet
the cost Of our establishments in that country"
Time will make the people Of the United
States masters Of the whole continent, proyi-
ded there be no preciptate action on the part
OF our Government, such as plunging the
country into disastrous war, which will re-
tard Its advancement, lift do not restrict its
power 1t is not improbable that, in ten years,
the American flag will wave over the capitol Of
Mexico, by the free consent of its inhabitants
The people of that country will contrast their
degraded and debased condition with that Of
the inhabitants o. the United States and will

FRoM SWITZERLAND. We have been ia
yored by gentleman Of this city, with the
copy of letter dated, Missy, Canton de
Fapd,) January 10, 1916, which says-"Our
Canton is so unsettled that an honest man can
not live. The rich the great, the learned, the
wise and religious community, emigrate from
their native country, in order to go where they
can enjoy tranquility. Our Canton has form
ed Iiew constitution and compelled the peo-
pie to accept or submit to it. They have had
new elections and chosen men of their own
cast-issued proclamations, and compelled
pastors and ministers to read them from their
pulpts, contrary to law, and suspended such
as refused to comply. The pastors and minis
ters on their part, convened TO the number of
l60 and resigned; so that in our Canton we
have but 80 ministers, ten of whom do not Of
ficate. Our religious state is worse than our
political, as the religious community is obliged
to assemble at their pastors in oratorios or pri-
vate houses. Government has prohibited pas
tors to preach and instruct-caused the Orato-
rios to be closed, and appointed new ministers,
all from their own class, one minister for three
or four parishes. 1t follows, that several of
the churches are closed-and even in private
houses we worship in a state of fear"
The letter gives an account of the introdnc-
ton of the Jesuits in the Canton Of Lucerne,
and the Intellectual effort made to expel them
the particulars Of which have heretofore been
laid before our readers.

Insurance ON VESSELS The New York
Journal of Commerce says that the Board of
Underwriters of that city, are about to decline
insuring cargo upon the decks of vessels, and
a committee has been chosen by the Board, to
confer with the Marine Companies throughout
the United States. A statistical report of
some Companies in New York says, that for
every IL they have received for deck premi-
ums, they have paid $40. Let our ship build
ing friends in future build all their vessels with
high decks, as doubtless the Companies will
take this stand. The laws of Great Britain
vitiates insurance where the vessel has any
cargo on deck.

The News FROM MExIDo-.Nore RunoTs.-
The n. Orleans Pcayune, received last night,
after noticing the reported Imprisonment of the
American Consul at Matamoras, says
In addition to this, we learn verbally that a
Mexican who was the bearer of dispatches from
Mr. SRdell at Matamoras, to Gen. Taylor at
Corpus Christi, had been shot by the author-
ties at the former place on his return. 1t is
also said that 5000 Mexican troops are station
ed there.
There was a rumor ntown yesterday, to the
effect that Mr.. Slidell himself had been thrown
into prison, but this undoubtedly took its rise
from the above. Should it tarn out that Mr..
Schatzel has really been incorcerated at Mata-
moras, Gen. Taylor cannot reach the vicinity
of that city witht 90 great speed. We have
heard of several other acts committed by the
Mexcans of late--one of which was the shoot

EXHIBITION OF AMERICAN MANUFACTUREs'
We were amongst those who some years sInce
made an effort to procure an exhibition OF a.
merican manufactures to be held periodically
in the city of Baltimore. We believed that
such exhibitions would prove incentives TO the
exercise of skill and consequent Improvement
in the manufacture; and hence we zeaIously
co-operated in the attemptto open them IN our
own city;-but the effort failed for the want OF
adequate patronage. We are pleased, how
ever, to see it announced, that a National Fair
will be held IN the city of Washington, in May
next, and we have no doubt that the artists
and mechanics of Baltimore will take care to
be duly represented. Under existing crcum-
stances this movement is peculiarly proper, as
Congress will soon have under consideration a
bill so to reduce the tariff as to render the skill
and enterprise of American workmen mea-
surably unavailng. Let members of Congress
have the opportunity Of examining the pertec-
ton to which American mechanism is
brought, and it may convince them of the pro-
priety of continuing to foster and protect it
against the pauper labor of Europe. In the
various mechanic arts we believe that the
workmen of Baltimore cannot be easily excel
led; and as they will have every facility of
forwarding their productions to the contempla-
ted fair in Washington, we hope that they
will not fail to be fully represented We pre-
sumo that it will be splendid affair, and we
should dislike to see Baltimore come off "se-
cond best,n from neglect or inattention.
