An Arrangement with Canada.

The Canadians, with Sir A. T. Gait at their
head, continue to demand some commercial
arrangement with adjoining countries. They
urge it so earnestly that it is plain something
is wrong in the New Dominion. In Nova
Scotia, province that has all along evinced
unwavering hostility to the Canadian Con-
federation, complaint is heard about the fish
cries, to the effect that American fishermen are
given to encroaching on them. This we can
readily believe, for the average American can
not exist 10 peace without encroaching on all
contiguous old fogies but he need not trespass
on Canadian fisheries, for in reality our own
fisheries ia Alaska are superior in every
respect. Indeed, in everything, institutions,
system of government, people, customs,
country and wealth, we are so completely
ahead of Canada and, therefore, independent
Of her, that we do not need any commercial
arrangement with her, unless it is the annexa-
ton arrangement, and in that one we are
willing to give her q great deal more than any
commercial arrangement will give her. We
see that part of tho bottom in the harbor of st.
John, N. B., dropped out, apparently, the other
day, leaving deep sea where before was the low
beach, This may be typical of a warning to
the whole Dominion that the bottom will drop
out of the new confederation, unless they
come into the Union.

Oar European Mail Bs1goe.

BY special correspondence from st.
Petersburg and general 4 comprehensive
mail report from other central points Of the
Old World we have to-day a very interesting
news exhibit, in detail Of our cable telegrams,
to the 9th Of March. Our writer in the Russian
capital informs us Of the continued interest
which was manifested by the imperial family
in the Burlingame funeral arrangements and
of the men0riam of the name and services of
the Characterization diplomat. Politics
was still more animated in France, and the
different party leaders becoming more and
more decided, not to say vehement, in the ex-
preston Of their opinions. Rome was
full Of piety, fear, joy, argument
contradiction, and apparently at times
hope, the shell of the Holy City pre-
senting q very fair representation indeed
Of the bark of Saint Peter when
tossed by the sea storm at Galilee. Pho Mono,
as the earthly representative of the great
High Priest, did not appear quite so confident
as did his Master in the first crisis; for it is
pretty plain that his Holiness keeps his eyes
open, and is pretty much "wide awake" on
every occasion. He has faith, certainly, but
apparently not just in sufficient amount or
strength to endow him with confidence to
strike out boldly on the troubled surface of
the Ecumenical Council. England has large
amount of crime-murders, forgeries, rob-
berries and suicides The Wicklow Ireland,
peerage claims case, which was being
prosecuted before the House of Lords,
was sensational, but of interest, in the char
acter of the testimony. The circumstances
which attended the Oneida disaster collision
were canvassed by portion of the London
press. Ireland was still agitated on the land
question. The Hon. Robert O'Brien, brother
to the late Smith O'Brien, fell dead when
dressing for dinner. Struggling humanity
abroad thus presents its sorrows, sufferings
and hopes to the transatlantic democracy,
seeking consolation and hopeful inspiration by
means of the printing press and the free and
independent pens Of America.

sense Of the greatness and nobleness Of their
calling and their position. 1t is peculiarly the
province Of the newspaper to aid in this awak-
ening, and, il necessary, to lead in the Chris
tian enterprises of the age; for the press not
only furnishes mental food, but creates the
craving Of the appetite 70! more Ap2t 9pJy
satisfies inquiry but awakens it; and, as Id
nobler spheres Of thought and sentiment, in
philosophy, poetry and the fine arts, the object
ct which we aim ought to be an inward one
an 97nobiement Of the intellect-so in our
dealings with mankind we should aim to in
struct rather than to force, to inspire by our
own example reverence in others for God
and love for the pure, the true and the beau
tiful in the soul. The minds the measure OF
the man.

gregational church, which, if it be a large
church, probably contains all there is Of the
population of Greenwich, has declared in favor
of women and even minors voting on church

allurement will bring all the outlying female
and juvenile population Of Greenwich into the
fold.

THE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD.-The last
proposition in regard to the Navy Yard is that
General Sherman, Admiral Porter and some
other specially educated officers Of the govern
ment shall choose site for a new navy yard,
with view to the strategic and other points
involved in its safety during war and in its
usefulness for the defence of this city. This
ib . good proposition, and will, it is to be
hoped, result in the choice of position up

COMPLIMENTS AT ALBANY.-The little chill
dren at Albany have forgotten the admoni-
ton of Watts, and have suffered their angry
passions to rise in shocking way, apropos to
some little charges of improper propositions
from one member to another. There is
peculiar attraction in strong language for the
public ear. People listen with great zest for
every syllable of personality that passes be-
tween public men, and the more piqnant the
language and the less it regards the decencies
of discussion and debate the better they like
it. In Mr.. Fields denunciation of Mr.. Aims
worth, therefore, they find peculiar flavor,
and in Mr.. Ainsworth's charge against Mr..
Fields something far daintier and finer than the
ordinary diet Of Albany reports. We do not
see, however, that the debate is likely to exalt
our legislators in the respect of the people,
and there is but little public profit in it, since
it is not possible that such exposure of the
way things are done at the State capital will
cause them to be done in any other way.

THE RICHMOND MUss. The municipal trou-
bles in Richmond are nearly over. Ellyson's
police have been seizing and disarming Cha
hoon's police, portion of whom are shut up
in one station house, while Ellyson's men have
possession of the city. Mayor Chahoon has
finally done what he should have done at
first--appealed to the law. An injunction has
been served on Mayor Ellyson, and Judge
Underwood will hear the argument on Wednes-
day.

THE DISAPPEARANCE OF COLLECTOR BAL
IEY.-The special officers Of the Treasury are
al at work overhauling the papers and pro-
perty left behind by Collector Bailey. No clue
to his whereabouts and no cause for his disap-
pearance have yet been discovered. 1t is not
even known yet whether he has taken any
government money with him or not. But
there seems to be but little doubt that he has
in some manner laid himself liable to the law
and Is skulking to avoid the penalties.

PRINCE PIERRE BoNAPARTE's TRIAL.-Prince
Pierre Bonaparte will be placed on trial to-mor
row, before the High Court of Justice Of
France, under indictment charging him with
the homicide Of the late NJ. Victor Noir. BY
cable telegram, published elsewhere, it will
be seen that the court convened in the ancient
city Of Tours yesterday. Intense interest was
manifested by the public in the proceedings.
In view of this we specially elucidate all the
facts connected with the august tribunal, COM
mencing by the publication Of the decree Of
the Emperor Napoleon, under which the judges
and jury are commissioned. Prince Pierre
Bonaparte's appearance and mode of life in
the prison OF La Couciergerie were specially
reported from Paris in our pages on the 10th
inst. The members of the Noir family, with
their friends and legal advisers, were at Tours
promptly. The fatal act has been fully accom-
plished. The fiat justitia alone remains.

HAYTIEN MIsRULE.-It was thought that

Bergh ms n Humorist.

We hasten to make reparation to Mr.. Bergh
for wrong we recently did him. We said he
had no humor-that joke was worse than
wasted upon him and only attracted his atten-
tion as demonstration of hostility. In this
we were greatly mistaken, as is shown by his
graceful and good-natured statement before
Judge Bowling Of his case against a rather
scurrilous piece of newspaper fun. He OBJ
jects to illusions to his peculiarties of person,
because, as he justly observes, these are
things he cannot mend. An actor of happy
memory was once Kissed because he was so
ugly in feature, whereupon he assured the
audience that it was easier for them to get
was voted that his spirit and wit were fair
equivalents for beauty, and he was as good as
a handsome man for the rest of his life. So
when Bergh assures this public that if he
could only reshape his person to his own fancy
he would be as handsome as Judge Bowling
himself, it must be admitted that he gives us
an intellectual equivalent for comeliness and
fair proportions, and that his high standard of
taste and felicity of statement are worthy his
fame as q man Of true humanity and indomi-
table moral courage.
MORE CoUNTERFErTING. In addition to the
counterfeiters who make limitations of all sorts
Of promises to pay, the attention of the police
is now invited to the counterfeiters Of Worces-
tershire sauce. The fact that men can be
punished for making condiment here under
the same name as q condment commonly used
in England exhibits queer state Of law.
We have law of copyright for the pro-
lection of such noble piece of literature as
the lying label on bottle Of peppery trash,
but we cannot afford law for the protection
of the authors property in good book.
MISTAKEN AMEs.-General Ames, in COM
mand of the national troops, maneuvred his
forces so we'll that he was returned by recon-
structed Mississippi as one Of her Senators.
But committee of the Senate reports against
his admission, on the ground that he was not a
resident of Mississippi at the time Of election.
We are glad to see that there are some things
In reconstruction that the Senate will not
swallow.

WALL STREET is not often victimized by
strangers or by persons from the country. 1t
seems, however, that two Englishmen, who
have been doing business in Baltimore, came
on to New York on Wednesday and manipu-
lated over fifty thousand dollars out Of bro-
kers in Wall street and disappeared. They
used forged letters and checks. 1t seems hard
indeed if Wall street cannot have monopoly
Of her own thieves. bH u tf h1 'tdons' even

COOP DISCIPLINE is evidently the
best disposition in the Police Commission to
keep up the morals of the force by exemplary
penalties. Officer Coffee, who will be remem-
bered as having very suspicious relation to
dead mans gold watch, has been dismissed
from the force. Other policemen tempted by
watches will be apt to consider whether their
places are not worth more than such piece
Of plunder. And the officer who arrested the
victim in case of assault and permitted the
escape of the assailant is on trial, and his dis
missal will have good effect against that
common abuse.
