Canada parted ths thrust by an inquiry = 70
the naval armament on Lake Ontario. Neither
side would assume any clearly defined rsspon-
sibility for these expensive works, and when
the negotiations ended an that had been
arrived at was that Crest Britain would
"do Its duty" with regard 10 6'e Lakes, and
that if Canada would commence the Western
Qualifications and give good SECURITY the
government would ask the British Parliament to
guarantee the requisite loan. But, fsst of all,
the assent of the Colonial Legislature was 70
quired. At this point the negotiations on the
most vital question Of the whole five were
abruptly broken of, and two of the delegates
have returned to Canada to obtain the neoes-
sary sanction for . resumption of the diplo-
macy.
Thus rests the Canadian imbroglio. II we
can do anything to assist our neighbor, Il they
will only let us know, we will willingly lend
them hand.

Our RESTORATION m EUR0PE.-The America
arrived yesterday with three days later news
from Europe. The feature Of the Intelligence
is the continued advance in American securf
ties. Five-twenties had gone up to seventy and
threequarters, an Improvement of one-quartef
since our last advices and twelve and three
quarters since the surrender of Lee. Thus our
reconstruction at home and abroad goes on

CAMPAIGN SUBSCRIBERS. We will fur
nish the CHRONICLE for the Campaign,
ending with the paper dated October 26,
for fifty cents.
There is no better way to fight cam
palgn, than to put the county paper in the
hands Of the people. It's quiet, weekly
visits will accomplish more, at less cost,
than can be accomplished by the use Of any
other means. If committee were ap.
pointed in each township to canvass it, and
see that the paper was placed in every
family in the township, either by subscrip-
tion or contribution, more weula be accomp-
lished during the campaign than could be ac-
compished if a public meeting was held at
every farmhouse in the township, The lead
ers of the Union Party have heretofore seri-
ously neglected this method of electioneering
and we hope they will pay more attention to
it hereafter, Let us have club offrom five
TO fifty campaign subscribers from each Post
Office in the county, during the present
campaign and see what the result will he.
You need not fear that the paper will be
continued longer than the time subscribed
for, as we invarisbly discontinue papers
when the time paid for expires.

mittee intend, if the people will properly
respond and encourage their efforts TO

The administration of the Government
State and Nation-is in the hands Of its
friends, and until all the questions growing
out of the overthrow of the rebellion, and
the re-establishment of the National au-
thority are properly and fully adjusted it
should remain there.
There is, there can be no better way Of
fully and fairly presenting to the people,
the issues involved in a campaign than
through these public meetings, and We dc
hope the Union people of the county will
GO to work at once, determined that every
man and woman in the neighborhood where
these meetings are to be held shall attend
them il their influence and example cal
prevail on them to do SO. .....

THE FOURTH CoRPs. There have been
a number of reports in circulation during
the past few weeks about this corps, and
the probabilities of its being mustered out
Of service. The following from letter to
the N. Y. Tribune, dated New Orleans,

various rumors and indicates that the 4th
corps will not be mustered out, for some
time at least:
s'The last of the Fourth Corps left here
Yesterday for Texas. The men OF the com
