The San Juan Boundary Question.
LONDON, June 14.-In the House Of
Commons this afternoon Gregory gave
notice that he should question the govern.
ment as TO the effect the postponement Of
arbitration will have on the settlement
OF the San Juan boundary, fishery ques.
tions and on the Canadian loan. Glad.
stone replied to the interogatory from
Horsman that the papers concerning the
recent negotiations withthe United States
would include everything except Stafford
Northcots declaration as the responsible.
ty Of the British Commissioners.
In tho House Of Commons, Horsman
wanted to know whether the records Of
the High Joint Commissioners would
contain any minutes with regard to indi.
rect claims, or show whether the question
OF these claims was reached at all; also
where they would prove that the with.
drawal OF said claims only rested on an
understanding between the commission.
ers. Gladstone required notice Of the
question before giving II full answer,
but would state that no communication
had passed between the commissioners of
Her Majesty's Government, showing that
the exclusion OF indirect claims rested on
an understanding.
Corrance asked Il Her Maiesty's Gov.
ernment intended TO proceed with arbi.
traton on the matters which had no re.
lation with the Alabama claims, Fenian
raids, fisheries on Canadian waters. For
the purPose of obtaining the floor Cor.
rance made motion 10 adjourn. He
criticised the government, charging 1t
with neglecting the Canadas and exacting
their assent TO the treaty ot Washington
under duress.
Gladstone protested against portion.
He claimed that his answers were misun.
derstood. He had said that the post.
ponement OF the board of arbitration
would not affect the treaty but defeat one
OF the provisions, He might as well
have said that when one of the wheels Of
the carriage failed, all failed. In reply to
Viscount Bury's enquiry Of last night,
Gladstone promised that all papers would
be laid before the House tonight.

THE WASHINGTON TREATY.

NEW York, June 14.-The ReralFs
Washington special says: 1.-THE points of
the draft Of the Instructions from the
British Government to their agent at
Geneva have been received ia Washing.
ton. The note recites the correspondence
had on the subject of the supplemental
article and the refusal oil the United
States to discuss the propositions to amend
the article and compel Great Britain to
reluctantly withdraw from tho arbitra.
ton and leave the responsibility of a
failure upon the Government of the United
States. Reference Is made to the arrogan.
cies of the U. y. in attemptingIto dictate
the treaty stipulations which the British
government shall accept, and the refusal
OF the United States to discuss the pro-
posed changes is contrasted with
the friendly spirit evinced by Great
Britain in making these propositions. II
the counsel for the United States have an
opportunity to speak before the arbitra.
tors, 1t is understood they will, in the
most emphatic manner, express the con.
tempt which the United States has had
for Great Britain throughout the contro.

Convention from the Sixth District Mr.,
Voorhees, promptly and imperatlvely de.
clined the use Of his name in that connec.
tion, and Of these facts there Is abundant
proof to show that the district did not
mean to repudiate his course. he was the
next morning unanimously agreed upon
by the district as delegate from the State
at large. This was done without the
knowledge or consent Of Mr.. Voorhees,,
and, as we understand, for the purpose OF
preventing the action Of the district on the
evening before from being misunderstood
or misrepresented as 1t has been as TO Mr..
voorhees, position in this district, VIC
know that he can have the race for Con.
gress by unanimous consent, and we fur
ther know that the strongest Greeleyites in
the district have approached him, urging
his acceptance oi the nomination as the
only hope Of carrying the district against
the Grant party and thereby saving the
Congressman the State ticket and the Leg.

ST. LOUIS.

ST. LOUIS, June 14.-The Republican
tomorrow will contain the following,
using the exact language suggested by
Mr.. Schurz, in reference to the proposed
New York consultation:
"The meeting Of gentlemen opposed
to the reelection OF Grant, which,
according to a dispatch published yes.
terday, will be held in New York on the
Goth Of this month, is to be comprised
of gentlemen representing all the differ.
ent shades Of opposition, and not as has
been suggested in some quarters, OF men
uniavorable to Mr.. Greeley as q candi.
pate for the Presidency, It's purpose Is
10 unite all the elements of opposition
for action. The list of the signers
of the invitation as given in the dis
patch can hardly have been complete as
we have been informed on reliable auth
ority that the use Of the name of Senator
Schurz was obtained only upon the under.
standing that the invitation should be
signed also by some other gentlemen
known to be friendly to Greeley and
distinctly representing the Cincinnati
nominees and should be addressed to
prominent men known to be of the same
way Of thinking.
The Republican further states that "the
assumption which has gone out from the
East that, because Mr.. Schurz was disap-
pointed in the result Of the Cincinnati
nomination, he will not support Mr.. Gree
ley, is very far from being true. We
have no doubt whatever that the Sena-
tor, should no opportunity be embraced
before, will, in his own emphatic manner,
establish the truth Of the statement at the
meeting in New York, on the Goth. The
Senator regards 1t as now certain that the
only candidates Tor President before the
people next November will be Greeley
and Grant"
