General News Summary.
Washington News.


The note of Earl Granville, sent to Sec
retary Fish through General Schenck, was
read to the Cabinet at Washington on the
23d. A general conversation ensued, con-
thinning several hours, in which the merits
of the questions presented concerning the
Interpretation Of the Treaty of Washing
ton were discussed. A dispatch says:
"Application was made for copy of the
British note for publication, but without
success, the refusal being based on the
ground that to furnish it would not only
be against precedent, but disrespectful to
the British Government at this stage OF
the proceedings; and 1t was further
said tonight, by high executive
Officer, that not even the sub
stance Of the British note could now
be communicated through an official
source, nor had it been repeated to any
private parties. AT the same time it was
remarked that as the note was OF a
friendly character, and couched in del
icate language, and AS the reply would be
in like temper, there was, therefore, no
cause whatever for apprehension as to
the continuance Of peace between the
two countries"

A Washington dispatch of the 9th
says: "The Cabinet was in session about
two hours to-day. The reply OF Secre-
tary Fish to Earl Granville is not yet com
pletcd, though the points are agreed on.
The American statement of the case will
not be altered, as by the treaty full pro-
vision is made for the amicablc adjust
ment of all differences through the Tri-
bunal of Arbitrators, both parties having
pledged themselves to accept their YER
dict as full, perfect and final settlement
of all claims"

published in the Avis of thu treatment give a prisoner nMeJ Jail
The Counclc onanedt aHy to the Interpolation being put"
1t reads as follows:
Would the Government explain whether the rpnshatong given in letter from crpon-
dmt signed in the ST. Crx Avis No. 25 27 Mach last of the treatment which a Prisoner
ID teSt Crx Jalbadr received is consistent with truth?
2d Cpwn Member AnhoD sMd he presumed the Article in question was generally known,
he would therefore, confueh unefo those pon.whee he would like get His ExpelenyS
explanation II mmpnulaed the oumi satnns contained uthe Article and sale it was in
egTd to the truth or correctness of those aMnn8h ahe wished an expanauOn; for If the dis
c1pL0n there's en be true it may with usIceb be termed brutal. Under ordinary circumstances
he would nt have ahached SO much weight to an OnynO Newspaper resOmdence but the
Article in quHonb bears uponH Itself certain aamp of auheidty@ that many who read it may
be led to cnIdHt as more. than ordinarily reliable. Thea article is namely, a sucGnct repesen-
an Of convaMnw which the Judge hadhad with. two Prisoners that had previously escaped
fomjal; tho Conversations could scarcely hwb had my other witnesses hand the three neg~es who
had @Eed in Selling the prisoners and had brought them to the Judge at night time; it could
scarcely be from them that epr@@ntrin had come many would therefore be justified in believing
tito be the Judges onu representa- ion, emauaing drcHyh from himself; at all events the note
appended below teS da article would sem sMw What the Judge had known Of the article before
it Ws8 sent to the Editor for pubntOn,a and thief ofhsn having made no objections to the state
monn in the ahIe while a word from him ath he dmhtdt the correctness would have taken the
sting tom it, leads ouet suppnet that e Judge withheld that word, because he could not say it.
The TneHvon0r said that as soon as the Government had received information of the honorable
Members intention to bring the question of that Newspaper aroe before heC Council as an inter-
peahon, he had demanded the declaration of the Poiema@trat Chrsumsed under whose auho-

time, not a little has been gained. Com
plants have been heard after the Military
Ordinance that the expenses for that branch
are still too high may be a salary might
here and there be too high, and could be
reduced; but at all events 10 to $4,000
have actually been saved on that branch
alone, and that without attacking the eff
cheney or usefulness Of the force we are
further going to save some thousands in
the expense for the Superior Authority,
although $1,000 will be missing in what
we formerly had under our control and
by the aid of the Mother Country a sum
OF about $4,000 will also be saved for the
Superior Authority there too. These saw
lngs, and more that will come later, will
certainly bring down the expenses with
$4,000. Now, he was not aware that
it was ever expected that greater results
could be come at in that length Of time
and with that experience. If there has
been argued sometimes against the Gov
ernment's stand, that was a perfectly ma
tural consequence of the different positions.
The Government is required to have in
view permanent objects and to guard
against being influenced by ephemeraI or
passing situations, and to discOuntenance
measures that would tend to weaken the
administration beyond what is necessary to
control public order. However, in con-
Guiding, he would express the hope that
serious differences do not exist, since both
parties are engaged in the same work and
have the same interests and he would
with this beg to take leave Of the Coun-
Gil.
The Chairman said we have Just now
been Informed by His Excellency of his
intention to leave these Islands. When
His EXcellency came here, we all knew
that he would not remain here Tut we
had hoped to have seen him carry into
effect some more of the reforms which he
has commenced, for we believe that the
man who frames a plan will be the best
one to carry it into operation. But it has
been decided otherwise and we cannot help
it. We may, however, hope that His Ex-
c%ellcncy when rendering his advises to
his Majesty the King and His Government
will always have the interest OF the colony
at heart. There is one thing, which His
Excellency has achieved, namely the Or
dinance for the appointment of a School
Inspector, which must be considered as
the cornerstone for establishing better edu-
cation in this Island and when we see
our children, the children of our labouring
population and of the poorer classes en-
joying this benefit, His Excellency's name
will be connected Herewith and remember
ed with gratitude. And in now bidding
Farewell to His ExcelIency he would beg
IN behalf of the Council to wish His Ex-
c~ellency all possible prosperity.
