OPINIONS IN ENGLkND.

THE IMPRESSION AMONG BUSINESS MLH-WHAr
Is THOUGHT OF LORD GRANYiLLES DlPL0-
MACY.
LONDON May 11.-Mr Gladstones announcement
in the House, last night that he would take the
world into his confidence on Monday, makes all
speculation superfluous. need only record the i'm
pression which has weighed on London all the week,
that there is little hope of favorable statement.
Twice at least, the city-which means the leading
business houses who have access TO some informa-
tion-has made up its mind that the negotiations
had ended in deadlock With ITS usual tiInidity,
il has discounted the failure and stocks have kept
tumbling while money has risen and the bank
directors talked themselves into panic and put the
rate upto five per cent. There was quite general
belief that the crash would come last night, and
good many members and other people went
down to the House expecting to hear
from Mr. Gladstone that all efforts to ar
ran ge the differences between the two Governments
had failed There had been Cabinet meeting that
morning-there has been something IKE one day
this week-and the most dsquieting rumors respect
ing the result Of it were circulated. Ihey are
summed up in paragraph in amorningpaper to the
effect that a dispatch was sent yesterday to the
United States Government intimating that England
positiyely refuses to proceed with the Arbitration
That s SO intrinsically mprobable-ndeed. it is i'm
nossible-that it is worth quoting only as showing
what people here persuade themselves into beIiev-
ing. or, at any rate, printing.
Nv belief is that the English Government would
hive been more likely to come TO terms II they had
carried on recent negotiatonsin the daylight Inelr
secretiyeness has only added to the popular appre-
bension that they were contemplating some sort OF
surrender. and the knowledge of that apprehension
has reacted upon Ministers, restraining them' per-
hans. from concedng points which they themselves
felt TO be valueless. 1t is said that Lord Gran
Vile is for going further than be can per,
suade Mr.. Gladstone and the rest to follow him. VI
| Gen. sehenck. have heard similar remark made
the two together amounting TO an in.i''soh ..i"'
! II Iord Granville on the one side and Gen'schehck
on the other were giveu carte blanche they would
snesdilv agree People who ought to know say that
Gen. schenck has shown great ability ana persist
ence throughout the 70 no u'S
a,,,.n, or ssnppointment and without
a fresb resonrce to meet an unexpected difficulty

DOMINION OF CANADA.

DISCUSSION ON TIE RIGHTS OF CANADIANS TO
THE ST. CLAIR FLATS CANAL-sHARP PRAc-
TICE ALLEGED ON TIE PART OF THE UNITED
STATES.
OTTAWA, May 21.-In the House, last night,
Mr. Stephenson moved an address for the correspond
ence respecting the seizure 10y United States Customs
officials, OF the steamtug and barge. tho property OF
Hiram Little, in st. Clair Flats Canal He referred 10
the circumstances OF the seizure and the expenses In
Cured by Mr. Little and thought the matter ought TO
be fully Investigated
Mr.. Mackenzie said lie would like 10 know how tho
Government intended TO proceed in the matter. Tho
question was serious one, involving the rghs "
Canadian navigators BY the Treaty 1t had been as
sumed that the canal American property. The
Americans were aggressive in their canal policy aud
put to trouble for the least nfracon OF their rules OF
lghterage &c. Now it important TO know how this
matter stood under the present Treaty, for Mr. Les
property was seized presumably for violation Of tho
regulations governing American Canals. BY the Pre-
mier's explanation. the canal admitted to be IN
American territory.
Sir John A. Mcdonald said there could be objection
to this motion being granted lie did not know that bis
honorable friend would make any Of the correspond
ence after he had it, The United States authorities
gave up Littles vessel without demanding the costs
As regards the canal the Treaty did not IN any way
deal with tho boundary In these waters. Under The
Treaty OF 1862 all channels between the Islands situated
in the ST. Lawrence were free to both nations and stu
remained free no matter whether they were on Tho
Canadian or the American si0e or TIE DOuhudly lhe
Americans he believed made the canal under the nprc
sion that 1t was IN their own territory II tho
map signed by Porter and Barclay, two Engll,h
Commissioners, correct, the canal was un-
doubtedly within American Territory. Some Of
the law officers OF England had expressed the opinion
that that map conclusive evidence on the question
OF the boundary. On that opinion Her Maesty's Govern
ment bound TO act and therefore, settled the qucs
ton. The Treaty gave the OF the canal on pre-
cisely the same terms the American citizens. II tho
honorable member could show by Messrs Porter and
Barclays map that the canal was our territory. we
could still assert right TO it, for the Treaty Ia no way
affected our boundary rights.
Mr. Mackenzie contended that the canal question was
simply another piece OF sharp practice on the part OF our
American neighbors.
Mr. Stephenson said 1t was time the question was se'
tied as 1t was that might arise again. and was time
they should know whether Canadians had a right 10
trade in American territory without let hndrance
from Americans After some further discuss o., tho

face of the continued refusal of the English Govern
ment to accept terms which wero In fact though not
in form, compliance with the English demands.
1t is the fashion here just to accuse the Ameri
can Government of vacillation. We are represented
as ready to concede everything last week. and as
Withdrawing now from what we then accepted;
which do not believe. The English are always
wiser than we about our own affairs, and they have
discovered that it is the Cincinnati Convention
which has wrought change in the councils Mt
Washington. OF that leave others to judge For my
self wish only to say that am longer OF the opn
ion which Ibelieve expressed and which certainly
held last week. i thought then that our Govern
ment had conceded the substance and were holding
out on point of form; and felt that it vas not on
a point of form that the Treaty ought TO be ship
wrecked If what we have been told on this side
about recent negotiations be true the present de-
mand of the English Government is really unreason-
able and something moro than that. 1t seems to
imply doubt of our good faith, and II that be so
trust nothing will induce Mr.. Fish to give way. L
will defer what have to say about that till next
