In retaliation for tho termination of the
Reciprocity treaty, the Canadian Government is
preparing a series Of measures intended TO annoy
and injurc as much possible American mer-
chants and shipping masters. One of these
measures is an act now before the Dominion
Parliament, forbidding American vessels TO carry
goods or passengers from one Canadian port to
another, under pennly Of four hundred dollars
aud the forfeiture Of the goods. This act, if il
becomes a law, will undoubtedly take away from
our lake shipping much valuable business but as
regards the Canadian people, It will be decidedly
biting OF their nose 10 spite their face. It
amounts 10 Just this that no Canadian shall be
permitted TO make use Of the facilities Of travel
aud freight Afforded by American vessels, but
must either resort 10 land carriage or avail him
self of some Inferior crail belonging to his coun.
trymen. II would be very much like prohibiting
the people Of the North River towns from going
from one landing to another on steamboats, owned
in New York or Albany. Still, If the Canadians
are patriotic enough 10 stand il, Americans will
not object. Only it is doubtful whether every
such turn Of the screw will not make Canada
more dissatisfied with its present situation and
more anxious for a radical change.

Is It not about time that engine'drivers
were taught tina, they have no right to run over
deaf people who get in the way Of their trains
Every few weeks we hear of some unfortunate
deaf person being Killed on railroad track, and
the cOroners jury is stupid enough to aoquit the
cngine-driver because IL is testified that he blew
his whistle before he ran his victim down. Ii IL
true that it would be troublesome to stop train
every time human being was discovered to be
in front of II, and there should be some way Of
Furnishing such an interruption OF traveij but

defence was that there was indeed cheating in

cheated The firm actually produced witnesses
to prove, and testified themselves, that the
smaller of the two returns was the true one, and
that they had procured the fictitious larger one in

Appended 10 THIS list Of Killed, wounded, and
prisoners follows a list Of war and other mate
nal captured by the Spaniards, in which. among
other most Heterogeneous articles movable and
immovable, appear IS, 763 horses, 81 can.
non, 6,5i5 firearms, guitar, 8lS camps, 4
doves, sos ntrenchments, 100000 cartridges,

As to the 2,2ol prisoner taken and not ran
somcd, il would be interesting to know where
they are, or what has become Of them because,
although, under date of September 10 last, Gen.
SIcKLEs states TO Mr.. FIsH that the Spanish Sec.
rotary Of Foreign Affairs had promised him that
the vanqushed and prisoners should be pardopc ed,
II is patent TO the world that the Spaniards, from
the very commencement of the revolution to the
present hour, have invariably shot every prisoner
taken in battle.
The sixty -four cannons Of the Spanards, with
their -four battalions Of artillery soldiers, from
which II is natural to suppose q considerable
force was reserved for the defence Of interior
towns-for the Cuban roads admit, with few ex.
ceptions the use Of mountain artillery only
have, wo observe, captured siSty-onc cannons
from the Cubens We were not aware that the
patriot cause could even boast of having been
able to obtain anything like such a number Of
great guns, They have certainly not landed over
twenty guns in all, and the only inference is that
the rest were captured by them from the Span,
iards.
Dcducting, however, from the total Spanish
force the 40 900 home guards, and the ! ,7o5
more killed, wounded, and captured, which is
the total loss 10 which they confess, we are left
