BRUSSELS, June 5,--The upper chamber have con-

The Alabama Treaty.
LONDON, June 5.-The temperate speech of Cla-
rendOn in the House of Lords last evening, the
subject of the Alabama treaty, has elected the fol-
lowing comments in the London journals of this
morning.
The Standard says the negotiations for the Alabama
treaty failed because America never intended them
to succeed. If England now admits 1t her duty to
renew her efforts for a peaceful settlement 1t is
without hope that honest desire for such settle
ment will be appreciated but by small section
Of the American people. In the meantime, until the
details of Mr. Motley's mission is known, we should
fold our hands, and limit our compliments to him as
a great historian
The Times says:-For our part, considering the
demands of America and the ready concessions OF
England, we wonder that the latter got of so well.
The rejection of the treaty more lucky chance
than the result of anybody engaged in behalf of
Great Britain.
The star says Americans NO longer doubt our
willingness TO do them right in our determination TO
preserve our national character and credit.

THE sTREETs-As the public learned several days
since ION the 1st Of the month), the warrants of
number Of the street contractors were withheld be-
their districts had not been properly cleaned,
the action of the Board Of Health in this matter,
while it secured the appreciation of the citizens OF
course could not fail in awaking disappointment, II
nothing more in the minds OF the contractors Evi-
dently some of them imagined, as under the old sys-
tem they could do they chose clean or not clean,
and still receive their pay. When the hrst OF the
month came, and their final reports showed their
sections yet far behind, they asked but didn't re-
ceive. The Board of Health couldn't see the matter
in the same light, and pay was minus. The derelict
contractors, at any rate some of them were rather
vehement in the language they employed when re-
fused but to no avail Spurred on by the fear that,
in case their districts were not broomed and sho-
yelled hastily they would lose both pay and contract
W. thin the past two three days they have been
making superhuman eXertiOns. Several OF them
will probably in consideration of the efforts they are
now honestly making, get their warrants in a few
DAYS but others stand very poor chance of retain
ing their contracts at ALL Other parties more capa-
bile, experienced, and honest, will have to take their
DlaceS.
