FROM BALTIMORE.
The Sea Gull Case,


BALTIMORE March 30.-In the United States
District Court, Judge Giles has filed his opinion
in the case of the owners of the schooner Sarah
Watson against the steamer Sea Gull. The case
was a libel growing out of a collision at sea,
the libelants claiming the value of the schooner
and her freight, and also representing the
owners and insurers of the cargo, claiming;its
value. The libel being for total loss, the
Judge decided first as to the question of abaud-
onment, that the master and crew were justified
in leaving the schooner when they did On the
question as to the respective courses of
the vessels at the time of the collision. there
was the usual conflict of testimony. The Judge
held that the manner of collision demonstrated
that the course of the schooner was changed
before the collision, for which change no excuse
was shown, and therefore the schooner was also
in fault. In such case the damage to both YES
sells must be equally borne by both, and the
costs equally divided. The Sarah Watson was
owned in Philadelphia, and at the time of the
collision was bound from Wilmington, n. c.. to
New York, with a cargo of $500 barrels OF
rosin and other freight.

Proceedings of the Parliament.

Proceedings of the Parliament
OTTAWA, March 30-In the House of Com
mons last night Mr.. Langevin, Minister of
Public Works, explained the canal policy of
the Government in connection with the report
OF the commissioners. No vote would be asked
Tor the Sault Ste. Marie Canal at this session. but
about 5000 600 and $2S0,00 would be asked
respectively for enlarging the Welland and
Ottawa Canals.
In accordance partly with the recommends
ton OF the commissioners, nothing would be
done. with the Chambly Canal, Murray Bay
Canal, and deepening the St. Lawrence between
Montreal and Quebec but there would be an
item OF 100000 in supplementary estimates for
deepening the river between Kingston and Mon
treal Mr.. Mackenzie alluded to the Importance
OF rendering our commerce independent of
American highways, after the events of last
year, and regretted that nothing was to be done
in regard to the Sault Ste. Marie Canal, though
action had been promised at the beginning of
session.
He did not think the enlargement of the We'll
land Canal would produce the results anticipated,
but that it would rather benefit Oswego. He
Thought the best line Tor western trade was a
large canal along Ottawa, which Mr.. Shandly
said could be constructed for Sl2 000. 600. There
was no reference to the mining trade of Lake
Superior or the Rideau Canal. He blamed the
Government for not being prepared to announce
some policy for the future.
The debate on the admission of British Coum-
bia, and the construction of the Pacific Railroad
was continued last night aud will be resumed
to-day. 1t is meeting with considerable epposi-

deg. to Shanghae, at the mouth of the Yaug-
tse.kiang (China) In latitude 81 deg. north.
This is the shortest and quickest route between
the China of commerce and America. No direct
route from Puget Sound to Shanghae could save
time over this one, for what they might gain In
distance they would more than lose in the
roughness of the Northern seas. We apprehend
that San Francisco will always do the greatest
bulk of the China trade; but that fact will MOI
prevent the Northern Pacific Railway from
taking vast deal of the inland Asiatic trade
from the Central route, and Duluth from cutting
in on Chicago's anticipated state of its general
distribution
The Northern rdll,ody route seiu be yer,,
densety peopted ty a ,oedltI,y and prosperous dg-
rlcuHurdt population, stretching dlcdy on either
side Of H for oUei 400 miles. The Central line
will of necessity always have sparse popula.
tion, made up of miners aud herdsmen, Then
again, the Sioux City branch road puts Colum-
bus, on the Union Pacific, 100 miles nearer to
Duluth than to Chicago. The distance from San
francisco to Chicago is 2405 miles, from San
Francisco to Duluth, via Columbus and Sioux
City, 300 miles. 1t is estimated that an area of
nearly 100000 square miles will be tapped by
the trade of Duluth, including, of course the
Saskatchewan and Red River countries. Aud
this estimate is accompanied by the following
plausible remarks upon the capabilities of the
country so drained by the Lake Superior town.
Careful explorations and Investigations, both OF
the soil and climate Of this vast region have now
fully demonstrated that within this area Is found
territory sufficient to make twenty states equal in
extent to the State of New York. admirably adapted
TO the raising OF stock, production OF wheat and Ali
the cereals and, in all respects, having as attractive
features to unite and sustain hardy population
and as capable OF production, any equal amount OF
territory within one area on the American continent
the rapidlty with which this vast region will be set
tied and developed may be Illustrated by the pro-
gress and development OF the State of Minnesota
Ths State was admitted into the Union ia 1853, was
unconnected with the kast by railways until the
past three years, but is now taking a prominent
position as producing State among the old States
OF the Union. This progress will appear from the

A SIGNIFICANT EST,IMA TIE OF DUL UTH
The Sacramento (Cal.) Daily linton, pub
lished at the original western terminus of the
Central Pacific Railroad, has significant edito-
rial on the future of Duluth, and of the belt of
country traversed by the Northern Pacific Rail-
road. 1t says:-
The Central and Union Pacific Railways have
done little or nothing toward advancing the in
terests OF the country through which they pass
and have rather set back than forwarded the
prosperity of San Francisco, the western termi-
nus OF the line. The natural sterility of the
country is to blame for this in great part; the
selfshness, and therefore the stupidity, of the
management of the roads, especially the Central
part, has done the rest against us. The Northern
Pacific Railway will have great natural advan-
tages of route over this Central line. 1t will
cross the river system and penetrate the valleys
of rich agricultural lands which stretch away
from the rim OF the great basin or desert that
forms the heart of the North American Conti-
nent; and in addition TO this it will invite, and
must soon secure, connection by
railway and by water with the
. still vaster agricultural region of that
far North which, beginning on the Red aud
Assinniboin rivers, extends to Athabasca Lake
and includes the valley of the Saskatchewan
the largest and richest body of land on the con-
tinent not yet touched by the white settlements
Nothing unrealiZed is surer than that the Sas-
katehawan, from its head to its mouth, at Lake
Winnipeg, will be drained through this North.
ern Pacific Railway, and so on into Lake Supe-
rior at Duluth, and thence by direct water lines
avoiding Lake Michigan. The whole railway
system of Minnesota, in course of construction,
completed or merely projected, indicates this as
the ultimate course of the trade of the "New
Northwest" The railway, now completed
from Saint Paul to Duluth, is one hum
dred and fifty-four miles long. Hitherto what
ever trade the region penetrated by this road
had went to Chicago. II will hereafter forever
remain at Duluth. The st. Paul and Sioux
City road, connected at Columbus with the
Union Pacific, will take another great share of
the trade of the Northwest to Duluth. There
is an aggregate of 14Sl miles of railway (not
counting the main line of the Northern Pacific,
100 miles more), nearly every one of which
roads win contribute directly to the growth of
Duluth. The Northern Pacific is reckOned on
as the route to the Asiatic trade We don't be-
lieve this hope will be realized TO anything like
the extent OF a monopoly.
The future route, we think, may be direct from
San Francisco to Osaka, thence through the
Inland Sea and Straits of Capallen, latitude S4

The Nilsson Concert.


Mile Nilsson and her associates we're cor
daily greeted by large audience last evening
at the Academy of Music. The entertainment
consisted of the whole of Rossini's Stdbdt Mater
and series of miscellaneous selections in addi-
tion, which prolonged 1t to a late hour, to the
tedium Of all but the irrepressibles who go to
concert with the determination to get the full
value of their money, and who consider them
selves personally aggrieved If singers do not
promptly respond to every demand for encores.
The StGbdt Mater is poetical but not q very
devotional composition and at times the dolo-
rous language is strangely at variance with
the vivacty of the music. Its very imperfec-
tions as work of art, however, have contribu-
ted to its popularity, and the performance last
evening would have been highly enjoyable if
the orchestra had been little less noisy and the
chorus little more So for the volume of sound
which came from the crowd of ladies and gen
tlenen who filed the stage was strangely dispro-
portionate to their number, and could not but
excite the suspicion that great many attended
as auditors rather than performers.
Mad'lle Nilsson sang the "Inflammatus"
superbly, and very graciously gave an encore,
probably being moved thereto by the hiss which
greeted her refusal to repeat with Miss Cary the
duet "Quis est Homo" which was given with
much delicacy and feeling. The quartette
'Sancta Mater" was finely rendered by Mad'lle
Nilsson, Miss Cary, Signor Brignoli, and Siguor
Verger, but was spoiled by the loudness of the
orchestra Signor Brignoli did not distinguish
himself in the "Cujus Amman, and the voice
OF Signor Verger was almost drowned by the
instruments in his solo 'Eia Mater" Miss
Cary, who more than sustains the high reputa-
tion she won at the beginning of the season,
sang the "Fac ut Portem" in such manner as
to elicit the heartest applause.
The second part of the concert consisted of
the Coronation March" from the Prophet:
a performance of the introduction Rondo,"
with "The Carnival of Venice for an encore by
Mr.. VleuZtemps; the tenor "Romanza, from the
second act of Trdciatd, by Signor Brignoli
who sang less carelessly than he did in the first
part of the entertainment; and the "Roi de
Thule" and "Air de Bijou," from Faust, by
Mad'lle Nilsson. This was the gem of the per-
fermance, and the sentiment of the scene in
which these airs occur was rendered in a manner
that could not but excite the strongest desire to
see Mad'lle Nilsson in the opera. For an encore
the beautiful little Swedish laughing song which
Mad'lle Nilsson has given on several previous
occasions was sung, and another recall elected
"Old Folks at Home" the simple beauty of
which created a far more profound impression
than some of the more elaborate selections upon
the regular program
