The DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CANADA AND ESa-
LAND.--While the Canadians are boiling over
with rage and demanding indemnities Of the
press and people Of England are thanking us
in the most cordial manner for arresting the
progress of Fenianism They see and realize
that had 1t not been for the interference
of our government Canada would long ere
this have been wrested from them. "The
American government" says the London
Times, "has acted in a manner which even
exceeds anything that could reasonably have
been expected from the most friendly nation.-
There are two very important admissions in
this culogium on this country-that the action
Of the British government towards us duriur
the war has placed that government outside of
the claims Of being friendly nation to the
United States, and also that the special inter
ference and protection of the British provinces
by our present administration exceeded what
IT would have been II England had been our
ally during our last troubles. Il Is gratifying
to see that this action Of our authorities is ap-
preciatcd in that country, even II they are not
in Canada. II may be that our Canadian
neighbors look upon II In different light and
are indignant that the United States so uncere-
moniously prevented their breaking loose from
the reign Of John Bull. Neither the people of
Canada nor Of this country appear satisfied
with this result 1t is, therefore, sort Of relief
to know that the course Of the Washington
government is approved in one country even
II we do have to 90 across the Atlantic 10 find
It, The London Times pretends that "those
energetic and genuine acts OF friendship will
be long and cordially rcmembcred,r Thsss

CoMMoDORE STocKToN.-This, distinguished
officer whose death, following So soon on that
of Rear Admiral Gregory, was announced yes
terday had reached an advanced age, and had
long been identified with the naval and public
historyo the country. He entered tie navy
early in life, and took part in several of the
principal engagements during the war of 1872.
He was afterward commander of the American
squadron on the coast of Africa
He took great interest in the employment of
steam in the navy, and the famous sloop-of-war
Princeton was built under his direction. 1t
was on the occasion of displaying her that the
party was given by him on the 2Sth Of Febrt-
airy, 1874, at which President Tyler, the Cabin
ct and many members of Congress were pres
ent and which was destined to become so mem
orable. Several of the company went on deck
to witness the firing of the new guns which
had been cast expressly for the Princeton when
one Of them, the "Peacemaker," exploding,
killed Mr.. Upshur, the Secretary ofState, Mr..
Gilmer, the Secretary of the Navy, Mr.. Gard
ner, whose daughter the President afterwards
married, and several others.
During the war with Mexico Commodore
Stockton was placed in command of the feet
in the Pacific Ocean, and took command, civil
and military, in California. In 1850, having
meanwhile resigned his commission and retir-
ed to private life, he was elected to the Senate
of the United States, and distinguished him
selfby introducing the measure to abolish fog
ging in the navy. He sustained the Nebraska
bill and Lecompton policy, and acted with the
democratic party. In 1861 he was chosen a
member Of the Peace Congress, and supported
the conciliatory policy. He has not since TAX
en- part in public matters. He died at Prince
ton N. j., ON Sunday last M
