1t is already plain that the ehist opposi-
ton to the Treaty Of Washington, viii be in
England and in Canada, and it is fortunate
for this country and FOR the cause Of future
harmony between the two nations, that the
English government can ratify the treaty on
its part, without submitting it to any legs-
la.i0n or representative body. That the
British ministry viii ratily it, is to be ex-
pected, for they have been constantly con-
suited. as it is stated, on points of doubt, by
the English members Of the Joint Com
mission.
The London Saturday Reriec, discussing
the work Of the Commission when its results
were intimated but not fully known, remark
ed 1t is perfectly competent for two
maritime Powers to determine between
themselves their respective rights and liabili-
ties as belligercnts or neutrals but their
mutual relations and reciprocal claims must
depend, up to the date of the convention, on
the common law of nations Tie English
Government, except as it is represented by
the Commissioners, has not hitherto, in con-
trayention of legal precedents, acknowledged
its responsibility for the escape Of an I'M
armed vessel from an English port but it
has for some years been willing to refer the
ISSUES of lqig and Of tact to any properly
qualified tribunal" These words were ut
tered in expectation Of a settlement, and
constituted the mildest statement of the
English position How far England has re-
ceded may be seen by measuring them with
the provisions of the Treaty. Instead of re-
ferring the issues of law to tribunal, she
has assented to our statement Of rules and
made them retroactive. Instead Of refusing
to acknowledge responsibility, she has prac
tically admitted it. But John Bull does not
like to admit that he has been in the wrong,
any more than other people, and as a natural
consequence considerable portions of the
English people will accept the declaration
with a very wry face Yet it is manly when
one has been in tie wrong, to admit it
frankly and squarely, and great nation
like England can well afford to do it, in this
case. In Canada, the opposition to the
treaty is very general. The people of the
new Dominion hoped to get renewal of re-
ciprocity by the treaty, and they have not
got it, 50 they grOwl over the portion relat-
ing to the fisheries, and are generally dissat-
isfed. We do not know that this will tend
to quiet opposition to the treaty in this cOun-
try; but it will certainly help rather than
hurt the treaty, with our people.

Rulof, the Murderer.

The execution Of Rulof, the murderer,
took place at Binghar upton, on Thursday af-
ternoon. The chara eter Of the man and Of
his crime have me De his case one Of the
most celebrated in the annals of crime in
this country. Burglars as a class are not
distinguished for classical attainments, and
condemned muir ierers do not commonly
spend the time Of their incarceration, and
their last hours before execution, in ransack-
ing dictionaries and writing pathological
treatises. Rulcf was undoubtedly a fair
Greek scholar. lie had evidently a strong
tasts for linguistic studies. and there has
been good deal written To make him out
profound and erudite philologist. But ae-
cording to the testimony OF competent men
who have looked into the matter, his know
ledge was fragmentary and imperfect, and
the cause of sound learning will lose nothing
by the non-eOmp letion Of Rulof's universal
method Of language" in order to complete
which the wretched man asked in vain lor
reprieye from the gallows.
Our readers will most Of them remember
the chief incidents of Rulof's last crime.
The midnight attempt at burglary in a Bing-
hampton dry goods store, the effort Of the
clerks to defend their employers property,
the deadly seattle in the dark, the shooting
of one of the clerks, by one Of the burglars,
proved afterwards to be Rulof, the flight Of
the three guilty wretches, the attempt to
ford the Chenango river, the drowning Of
two of the villains, the leader and chief
criminal escaping to receive more terrible
retribution at the hand of man, the dis
covery of the two drowned bodies, the clues.
faint, but positive, which pointed to Rulofi,
the difficulty in completing the chain of evil
dence, the long delays and legal quibbling,
the final production of the missing links,
and Ruloff7s trial and sentence, are all IA
miliar to the public, and to repeat their de-
tails would be to recount a more than twice
told tale.
Since his trial, RuloH has been almost
constantly occupied with his studies and
with bis book. He had promised to make a
confession (for which be asked $1,000, pay.
able to his brother), provided his relatives
made no objection, but his brother and son
