There never was a greater political blunder
than the so-caled Reciprocity Treaty with the
Canadian Provinces. We denounced it at the
time as a most short-sigbted and ill-judged
movement, but had the pain of seeing several
members Of Congress, whose course it had usu'
ally been our fortune to approve, led astray so
far as to give their support TO this great Pro-
Slavery measure. The result has verified our
iudgm ent. Instead of attracting the Provinces
into the Union, it has removed them further than
ever from it, and that act of annexation which
vss then approaching its copsummatiOn is now
adjourned to most distant if not unattainable,
future. On this head a correspondent of The
Herald at Toronto makes the following interest
ing statements:
The fever Of annexation TO the States, which was
n dangerous epidemic three years since throughout
entire Canada West. has most miraculously abated
since the Reciprocity Treaty took effect. Many pO-
iitical writers in the Northern States were under
the belief that this treaty, producing an interchange
free from duty, Of large variety OF the prodncuohs
of the field and the forest would increase the inter-
course of the people On both sides of the lakes and
the st. Lawrence. bring the Canadians into closer
union with the Yankees, infuse more perfect knowi-
edge of the characteristics of BOTH that it would be
the means Of bringing about annexation to the
States at period not far remote. The Aboltionlsts
and Free So1ers have been most anxious 10 eAtenu he
area Of the States in this direction, hoping that two or
three new States would be organized out OF the two
provinces. But the idea is mistaken one the
Treaty has not had, nor will have, any such effect
The people here are delighted with the features oil the
Reciprocity which affect them. They are aware mat
.he benefits are all on their side. These benehts,
which 80 abundanty fall upon the masses OF the people
In these provinces particularly the Upper have had tne
effect of aueting their annexation anxlehes: In
a word the Canadians are delighted with the heci-
procity Treaty being much of aeaure OF anneSa
ton az they desire at present. and possibly Tor hall
century TO come
But for this treaty Canada must have sought
and obtained admission into the Union before
the year 1860; now she will not seek it before
the year 1900, if she ever does. Without the
treaty we should have had the aid of the free
people of those new States in the momentous
struggle to set bounds to the aggressions OF
Slavery; now they will only come to u.s. II
they come at all, after that arduous struggle
has been won. 1t is enough to make one des'
mir of Ere edom to see how her best defenders
are often deluded AMI used by the enemy just
as they were in the passage of this mistaken and
pernicious treaty.
