dur Relations with Canada.
LONDON, Aug. 26.-The Times, on the de-
sire OF the United States to negotiate recip- |
rocty treaty with Canada on the basis of the |
economical doctrine prevalent in the Union,
says: Canada is within operation. of England's |
commercial treaties, and could not establish
reciprocity with the United States without
transgressing the most favored nations clause
in these treaties. Whether apart from the
question of our treaty obligations there would
be any disposition in Canada to assent to the
proposal is most doubtful The mind of Can
ada can be freely expressed in the parliament
of the Dominion, and we are willing to abide
by its free declarations. There is no disposi.
tion to fetter Canadian liberty of action, even
if the adjustment of customs with the United
States was the result of it, but the prospects
Of the scheme are at least doubtful When
the subject was raised some four years since,
the Dominion government protested they
would never listen to any suggestion for the
admission of manufacturers of the United
States ON more favored terms than those of
the United Kingdom, and we have no reason
to suppose any change OF sentiment has since
been developed.
