The Basin OF The 81. John.

The editor Of the State Of Maine. who re-
turned home from the Aroostook expedition
by the way Of the st. John. thus writes Of
that city and cogna,e matters:
St. John city has been built up by the
trade Of that region known as the basin OF
tho river st. John. Thi. region contain.
over l7,OOO,OOO Of acres, or rising 5000
square mile. OF territory, OF which 1000 900
acres are in New Brunswick, 1000 200 in
Canada. and G.OOO.OOO Of acres. or oyer
1000 square miles Of this territory in Maine
and by FAR the mos, valuable portion Of It,
also. The soil j. better, the timber Of bet
ter quality, and the streams far easier to
drive. In point Of tact. this territory lar
ger than the entire state OF Massachusetts.
which contains OILY I.s00 square miles, or
100000 acres OF territory, naturally be-
longs TO new Brunswick. TIE treaty Of
1883. which in terms gave US this territory.
was made in entire ignorance OF the geosra-
ply Of that region. The American Com.
missioners in 1888, urged, that the st. John
river sho.ld be the boundary line, but the
British Commissioners objected claiming the
entire st. John basin, thinking the words OF
the treaty would give 1t. The Americans
consented to the St. CFoiI rs the boundary.
Nothing could DO palmer, in point Of fact,
than this, tina, by the words OF the treaty OF
1888. the entire basin Of the St. John, above
the point where the duo north line strikes IL,
belonged TO Maine, bu, il is equally obvious
that tho treaty was made in ignorance OF
the facts, and IN the belief that the basin Of
the st. John was given up TO the British.
Since the treaty Of Washington in lSi2,
this region has made considerable progress
but it 1. only recently. that its bdsiness re-
lat!ons have been generally understood
The river ST. John is its natural outlet as
wa. the Mississippi that OF its own vast ba-
sin. Tho Ere canal Grs, tapped tina, basin
and railways have since taken the trade Of
its upper portion, 10 the Atlantic Cities,
which would have otherwise gone to New
Orleans.
Bangor can with equal success, tap the
st. John basin by railway, and take the
trade Of threc.fourths Of this region to the
pcnobscot. A line OF railway from Bangor
to Prcsque Isle, with u branch 10 the ST.
John at Woodstock, would do this, aud
cause the immediate settlement Of the coun.
try. A halHa million Of people would soon
occupy this territory.
