p To morrow has been named az the most
fitting time for the ministerial intrOduc,

Mr.. Moran, Charge de Affairs, attended
the leyee, and wss presented.
| The harden Of the newspaper articles
published here to-day, on the subject OF
Mr.. Motley's arrival is generally to the
effect that the writers find ia. his speech
| in Liverpool an indication Of the spirit OF
| the Institutions given to him by President
| Grant ..... ~ as..s.s,.,
The Pail Man Gazette boasts that
America has backed down before British
pluck, and that urder these circumstances
the arrival of the new minister is of
small importance, and the best result they
anticipate from Mr.. Motley's missioa is
that his duties will afford him sufficient
leisure to prosecute his historical studies.
LONDON, June 2--In the. House Of Com
none last night in response to q query,
Mr.. Mosel, Under Colossal Secretary stat
ed part of the policy Of the government
towards lbs American colonies was to throw
the cost OF self defense on each colony. He
believed the cession of the Hudson Bay
COmpany's territory would be ratified by
Canada. Every facility would be given TO
forward the interests Of British Columbia
in connection with those of Canada.
Stafford NOrlhcote thought the Canadi-
ans able TO decide their own action, and
believed the question would be salisfac-
iOrily settled.
Mr.. Currie regarded Canada As future
highway to India, and ridiculed any pro-
iect of anneXing Canada 10 the United
States.
Mr. Adderly regarded the present ar
rangement as satisfactory. While gener-
ally disappearing of government guaran-
tees, he would vote for this. atiI
The Herald's special says the Star pub
fishes highly complimentary article, in
which it says the character of Mr.. Motley
is 10 itself a sufficient indication that the
United States will treat the pending SUBJ
ject honorably, while the presence Of Mr..
Bright in the English cabinet, with Glad
stone at the head Of the ministry, consti-
tute equally sufficient guarantee that Eng
land loves peace, and that determination
TO do Justice aRimates the ministry.
The Telegraph thinks Mr.. Motley Will
for the present devote himself 10 the dis
charge Of the ordinary duties OF his Office,
and in that capacity he may consolidate
that cordial alliance which ought to exist
between the two couDtries. 1t will be a
reproach to English politicians and jour-
mails il, for the sake Of pandering TO popu-
lar prejudices, they throw difficulties in
the way of the mission of good will
and peace, which Mr.. Motley declares
he comes 10 carry out even to the end.
The Times understands no new demand
has been addressed 10 England. Mr..
Motley enters upon his duties without any
prospect Of controversy, but at the same
time says the English government shOu,d
examine any new proposals and see if they
promise Just aud equitable solution. IL the
proclamation is made the subiect
OF grievance, we are bound to listen TO the
arguments addressed Us, though il is inn
possible any good purpose would be
served by raising such discussion. IA
Notwithstanding the tone Of the London
press, have good authority for saying
that not one of the newspapers have re-
ceive1 the slightest hint or indication of
Mr.. Motley's instructions, which am as
sured wiIl, in the end, be found thor
onghiy digaifed and IN firm American
tone,
