Russian tourists accompanying him could not resist
the temptation to join In the chorus.
MAGNIFICENT sCRNERY.
The journey to and from the miues was through
the most delightful portion Of the Clear Creek
canyon. and although the lofty peaks ana towering
ranges were but faint specimens OF the highest
grandeur Of the rocky range, they were, neverthe.

the rocky cliffs which divide the Atlantic and
Pacific.

Several stops were made during the journey, to
allow the Duke to gaze In admiration on the en-
chanting scenes which surrounded him, and II was

TIE CRoToN WATER.-Under the last NUM-

to add to the supply Of water in Croton Lake
by the purchase of property bordering on other
water spaces. Whether or not these bargains
were contaminated is no matter Of concern to
the people of New York just at this time. But
our citizens want to know what they may ex-
pect next summer, when the usual droughts
affect the supply Of water from the fountain
head. Comptroller Green, who seems to run
the municipal machine, should be on the alert
to see that water famine does not occur in
this city the coming summer.

Commerce Between Canada and the United
States.


The commercial relations between this
country and the Dominion have been
hitherto carried on upon an unsettled
basis, giving satisfaction to neither side. The
Canadians have argued that the consular and
import charges in the United States were ex-
brilliant, and prevented the development of
the best interests of the two nations. Ameri-
can business men, on the other hand, have
maintained that an Illicit trade has been forced
across the frontiers, and that while they have
been endeavoring to cultivate friendly re-
iatons and trade with the Dominion on
the same basis as the country compels in
every other instance goods are brought in
without paying duty, and hence the articles
on which all the fees had been paid had to be
disposed of at proportionate loss. Yester-
day the Canadian Board of Trade at Ottawa
discussed the matter in the presence of vari-
GUS delegates from the United States. The
same complaints were made, and the same
explanations given, as in numerous other
instances; but the only hope that remains of
settlement, such as will be acceptable to both
sides, derives its inspiration from the resolve
lof tho delegates to meet in Washington and
,endeayor to obtain from the present Congress
q relief from import restrictions to such an
extent as will permit Of the development Of
the powerful mercantile interests BETTING two
neighboring and friendly nations. M

Just a Little.

The New York Tribune gushes Just Q
little over the result Of the Democratic
State Convention, assembled at Roches
ter on the 10Th:
Triumph is in the air. Scarcely has
the man who preferred Grant and
party to Reform and Liberal Re
publicanism been defeated in Con
necticut, till word comes from Ro-
chester that the Democracy of the En-
pire State has fairly and enthusias-
tically committed itself to the Cincin-
natl platform. 1t thus puts behind it
the whole record of the war, accepts the
work of thew war as final constitutional
amendments, negro suffrage, and ALL,
lifts itself from the slough of continuous
and deserved defeat, and turns hopefully
toward the problems of the future. We
reckon this one of the most assuring to-
kens of victory in November; but
whatever may come then it is victory,
not for party, but for the whole coun-
try, now. We know no spectacle which
the non-partisan patriot will more Joy
ously contemplate than the absolute ac-
ceptance by the Democracy of the be-
nefcent principles of the new Declare
tion of Independence at Cincinnati"
