FROM THE DOML.NION
The Georgian Bay Canal.

OTTAWA, March 24.-An influential delega-
ton from Chicago have had an interview with
the Railway Committee of which Sir George E.
Cartier is chairman, and consisting of leading
public men of both political parties. Governor
Bross, of Illinois, In an interesting and lengthy
speech setting forth the advantages of the
Georgian Bay Canal, said the business men of
the West had come to the conclusion that a canal
avoiding st. Clair Flats, Lake Erie, and Welland
Canal, with only eighty miles of canal and
slack water navigation, with capacity
for vessels OF one thousand or
twelve hundred tons, and corresponding en-
largement of the St. Lawrence, is the only chan
mel adequate to the wants of the commerce of the
West. He then sketched the rapid increase of
Western trade, and proved from statistics that
had the canal been in operation this year its
revenue would be over two millions and a half
and that for 1870 would exceed four millions
What the West wanted was the cheapest and
largest possible outlets to the ocean.
Governor Bross said a large majority of the
people of the West were in favor of free trade
and reciprocity, and are determined to have it.
If legislators now at Washington will not give
it the West will send those who will.
Mr.. Holden said that Mr.. BIoss deserved thanks
for his elaborate statements, and that there was
perfect unanimity among all parties as to the
Importance OF improving all avenues leading to
the West.
Sir A. T. Gale trusted what was going on at
Washington would lead to settlement of these
questions.
Mr.. Holden, as q representative of Chicago,
thanked the committee for their good feeling.
Sir George Cartier, in reply, favored reci-
procity between the two countries, and aided
that Canada should be thankful for the express
sion of the desire of the people of the West to
supply us with their great trade.
This morning the deputation breakfasted with
Sir +. Hicks.
The House of Commons has voted six millions
ior the purposes of the lntercolonial Railway,
the road to be built broad gauge, to correspond

Der of the London Distributing Commttee:-
No. Al LOMBARD STREET, LONDON, E. c.,
March z, 7l.-Gentlemen:-I have the honor
to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the
Goth ult., addressed to Messrs. Moran and Nor
gan and myself. Ere this you have received
advices of the action of the committee on the
distribution of the money placed in the hands
of Mr.. Morgan, but IL may be proper for me to
say that the best means within our control have
been used TO extend relief to those parts of the
rural districts of France that suffered most
severely by the war.
1t may also be proper for me to say that the
committee and other Americans in London are
much gratifed by the liberality manifested by
citizens of the United States, aud especially by
the citizens of New York, in the donations they
have made to sufferers in France. Such prac
tical illustration of sympathy for these dis
tressed people is an evidence of what Christian
civilization is doing to create fraternity between
the inhabitants of different and widely sepa-
rated nations.
Very respectfully, your obedent servant,
HUGH MCCULLoCH.
