Montreal, Ca, May 20. The Witness
says: "Our Canadian executive is going to
exercise the came privilege as the Queen her
self in ratifying the treaty, without asking the
consent of Parliament. This will, We pre-
sumo, be final, as far as regards the fisheries,
but legislation may be required to open the
canals. All this is for the best, for two rea.
sons. First, ANY solution of international
difficulties is better than the arbitration of
war. Second, The Dominion of Canada
WILL We hope, gain by all she comedies in
this treaty, as well as by all she acquires
through it. There are certainly various
points in which we might justly have claimed
more, but upon the whole the treaty is, we
think, happy solution of a complication of
difficulties"
Ottawa, Ca, May 30. No explanation

Taxpayers' Convention,

The Taxpayers Convention of South
Carolina" that was in session during last
week, adjourned sine die on the 18th inst. d,
at which time it was thought that the
Convention would oppose the payment Of
certain portion of the State debt, but
these fears have been dispelled. The
convention was not repudiative conven-
ton. 1t is said that much was done to
remove misunderstanding, and inaugurate
period of better feeling and conduct of
public affairs. Gov. Scott was interview
ed by a committee of eleven, who re.
ported the following:
Your committee understand his Excel
lency as having committed himself to the
following propositions -:
First. That he signed no otheI bonds
than those set forth in the debt statement
made by the Controller General. and that
ther. has been no fraudulent or illegal
interest
Second. That the State and county
offices, both elective and appointed. have
been unnecessarily multiplied, and should
be reduced in number.
Third That many officials charged
with the administration of justice have
been incompetent and inaccessible to the
people. and that the many disorders com
planned of in the State have been created
by this cause, and that will replace them
with competent persons whenever he can
do so.
Fourth. That he is in favor of the Gu
mulative system of voting and minority
representation, and would be glad to see
it made part of the law of the State.
Fifth. That the election laws are de-
fec.ive and lead to fraud. and should be
materially amended, and that he will ex-
ercise his influence to that end
Sixth. That he would have the collec-
ton of the taxes next November post
poned until the first of March, 1872 and
not enforce the penalty for ncn-paymeut
until that time
Finally, the committee recommended
the following suggestions The Legis,
lature ensuring the full payment of the
royalty on the pbosphates; the repeal of
the acts granting exclusive franchises; a
stop to be put to the drawing of money
from the Treasury for alleged Legislative
expenses. on the order of the Speaker of
the House and President of the Senate
and that all appropriations and bills ought
70 specify the items under each general
mead the reduction of the number of
he State and county officers the enact
nent of law limiting each session of the
Legislature to thirty days. repeal the law
,iving a salary of s25OO to the Adjutant-
General. to give each police officer but
me salary and to abolish the commission
