FOREIGN.
lord Granville and the CIayton-Bulwer
Controversy.
LONDON, February 9th.-Lord Granville,
in dispatch dated January 7th to Minister
West, in reference to the Clayton Bulwer
treaty controversy, denies that any analogy
exists between the cases of the Panama and
Suez Canals. He cordially concurs in Blaines
statement in regard to the unexampled de-
velopment of the Pacific coast, but denies
that it was unexpected. He says the declara-
tons of President Monroe, anterior to the
treaty, show that he and his Cabinet had a
clear idea Of the great future of that region.
The development of the interests of the
British Possessions also continued though
possibly less rapidly. The Government are
of opinion that canal, as waterway be-
tween the two great oceans and Europe snd
Eastern Asia, is O work which concerns not
only the American Continent but the whole
civilized world. With all Difference to
the considerations which prompted Blaine
he cannot bellows that his proposals
will ba even beneficial in themselves. He
can conceive of no more melancholy phase
than competition between nations in their
construction of Notifications to command the
canal. He cannot believe that any South
| American State would like to permit for
| eign power to erect Notifications on its terri
tory, when the claim to do SO is accompanied
| by declaration that the canal is to be re-
garded as part of the American coast line. It
is difficult to believs that the territory be.
tween it and the United States could retain
It's present independence. Lord Granville be-
lieves that the invitation to all maritime
States to participate in an agreement based
on the stipulations of the Convention of 1850
would make q convention adequate for
the purposes for which it was de.
signed. Her Msjesty's Government would
gladly see the United States take
the initiative towards such conven-
ton, and will be prepared to indorse and sup
port such action in any way, provided it
does not conflict with the Clayton Bulwer
treaty. Lord Granville, in a subsequent dis
patch, draws attention TO the fact that Blaine,
in using the argument that the treaty has
been source of continual difficulties, omits
to state that the questions in dispute, which
related to the point occupied by the British
in Central America, were removed In 1860 by
the voluntary action of Great Britain, in
certain treaties concluded with Hondural.
etc, the Nicaragua settlement being recog-
nized as perfectly satisfactory by President
Buchanan. Lord Granville says further that
during this controversy America disclaimed
any desire to have exclusive control of the
| canal.

Der fer Tipperary, sought to withdraw his
amendment to the address in favor of the re-
