From the Philadelphia Saturday Evening POST
Secret History OF the War with Eng

Col Miller, Of Vermont, who was formerly
Representative in Congress from that State, il
now resident of Wyoming. In speech re-
Gently delivered at Warsaw, Col Miller revived
charge that has been often made, that our
Government, though causing much blood to be
shed In Canada, did not intend to conquer that
territory, because, by so doing. the free terri
tory of the Union would be extended. In proof
of this assertion, Col Nj. says that after Ger
Hull was convicted by court martial, Of .'trea-
son and cowardice, and sentenced to be shot"
he handed letter to the president Of the court,
which proved to be a letter from the Secretary
of War, directing hin 10 surrender his army u
tie British Col. Miller added:
The President, Mr.. Madison, stayed the pro-
ceedings of the court, which left it in such stu
alton that any President, at any future time,
could issue an order for he .falflment Of the SEN
tencc of The court!
Gen. Hull's oath, as officer in the army Of
the United States not to reveal his instructions
from the War Department, prevented his de-
fence to the public Of this traitorous act 1t
hung over him up to the last hour of his life
The fiat for his execution could have been issued
at moments warning even to the day Of his
death
Dr. Eusts remained at the head of the War
Department until the close of the year 1912,
Wnen ne was succeeded by J0hn Armstrong,
who Of course became acquainted with the
above matters. He remained in office about
two years, when, incurring the displeasure Of
President Madison, he was removed. Mr.. A.
then presented to the Government n claim of
some $50, 900, the payment of which was re.
fused Mr. Armstrong then published pam
phlct entitled "1stomd6,g Disclosures" con
tanning the foregoing in relation to Gen. Hull;
the Government Immediately purchased the
of the work, by the payment Of
Mr.. As claim, and ordered the whole edition
to be destroyed. This it was supposed was
done: three copies Of ii stat erist-one of which
is in the possession Of Col Miller, another in
that of Alvan Stewart, of Utica, and the third,
. mutilated copy, in the hands of Judge Hutch
nson, OF Woodstock, Vermont.
We have long entertained strong suspicious
that the conquest of Canada was no part of the
plan of the Administration in 1872. At the
of the war England was engaged
in mighty conflict with Napoleon. She could
spare but small force to defend the Canadas
Gen. Hull could have marched trumphantly
through the Upper Provinces. But there was
either iDabecility or treason at Washington

ENGLISH OPINION OF AMERICAN STEAMERS.
The Liverpool Times of the 9th Of September
says
"We perceive that splendid service of gold
plate is about to be presented by the merchants
of New York to Mr.. E. X. Collins, the pro-
jector of the line of steamers that bear his
name, which run between that city and Liver
pool No compliment could be better deserved
or more appropriate. The success of these
magnificent vessels is as complimentary to the
spirit and enterprise of Mr.. Collins as to the
genius of America We have never been stinted
in our praise Of transatlantic workmanship.
The most fastidious of critics must admit that
the American mail-packets are noble vessels,
and every way worthy Of the great country
which they so worthily represent The mer-
chants of New York properly show their appre-
citation of their distinguished countrymens SER
vices to commerce by the testimonial in ques-
ton, and we heartily wish Mr.. Collins an unin-
terrupted enjoyment of that which is most
| pleasing to good mantle respect and esteem
OF his feow-citzens"

spondent SAYS he procured about six thousand
feet of one and a half.inch pipe, and the water
has been passing through it since November
last, without any appearance of discharge at
the joints, or bursting Of the pipes. The man
ufacturers furnish the pipe at their works for
the following prices inch pipe, seven cents
per foot; inch pipe, nine cents per foot; 2
