Halifax garrison, the last remnant
of the imperial army in Canada, will
he withdrawn next November. This
may be rega rded as continuation of
that policy of the gradual emancipa-
tion from imperial control instituted
shortly after the confederation by the
liberals of England, and interrupted
for time while Lord Beacenstield
was in power, aud now resumed with
view to its final completion. Brit
ish troops are not needed in Canada.
The government of the Dominion is
strong enough to maintain peace
within its own borders, and there no
longer exists the slightest danger from
the United States. With this in view
the militia acts are being amended to
provide for the enrolment of a perma-
nent troop of cavalry, another bat
terry of artillery and three companies
of infantry. These are not much, but
with two batteries already in exist
ence, and the mounted police, the
country will have a nucleus of "a reg
ular army sufficient for its present
needs.

The railroad hands on the Baker
City branch one day recently went
into Geo. Sally's saloon, near the
works, and informed him that they
wonld run the thing awhile, and told
the bar-keeper that he could take an
account of what stock he had on hand,
after which he could step down and
out, as they proposed running the >a-
loon, and he could bring on his bill
next morning. He did - requested
and they took turns tending bar, and
had n glorious drunk. Next morning
the bartender presented a bill fol
seventy dollars, which was immedi-

BY a recent order from the bureau
of Indian affairs "A new division of In
dian reservations in this section has
been made. Hereafter Quinalt and
Neah Bay will be two agencies; Sko-
komish, Chehalis, SquaXom, Ms
qually and Puyalup third; Tulaiip,
Port Madison, Swinomish and Lummi
fourth. During the past year the
Indians on these reservations have
been combined in two; Mr.. Edwin
Eells being in charge of one, and Gen.
Oliver Wood of the other. Under the
new order of things Gen. Wood will
have charge at Neah Bay, aud Mr..
Eells either at Tualip or Skokomish,
but which we are unadvised. Two
agencies will remain to be filled. This
change is startling one and entirely
unexpected.

NEW YORK, April l6.-To-day re-
porter interviewed Iturbde, who said:
"I am usually called prince, especi-
ally abroad, where have been during
the last six months. | suppose am
the only living heir to the Mexican
throne, but | have no pretensions in
that direction, and am quite content
to enjoy equal rights with other good
citizens of that growing country.
am a republican at heart, and believe
in the prevailing ideas of this conti-
nent. Gen. Daz is a very intel gent
and IA very able man, and has done n
eat deal of good for Mexico. He
knows the country and the people
thoroughly, and he und r,tands well
what its present needs are. He is n
sagacious man and quite capable of
giving the Mexican republic just the
kind of government it needs. | un-
derstand the object of Diaz visit to
this country is to bring about closer
commercial relations between the
United States aud Mexico, and | have
faith in his ability to accomplish his
purpose. If his ideas prevail, not only
in his own country, but this nation,
will be satisfied with the result. The
development of the railread system of
Mexico has helped that country To a
great extent, and Diaz is the instigator
of that system.

RESCUED GILBERT islanders.

There arrived by the C'y Of
Toxic Thursday five dark-skinned
natives of the South Sea islands,
who had been picked up in canoe
by the American ship NoHhern
Tight. The ship found them adrift
and in dying condition on Dcccm-

east. The boat contained ten per-
sons. five of whom had died from
starvation. There was one woman
among the survivors. They proved
to be natives Of the Gilbert group.
They were SO cmacatcd and looked
so wrctchcd, especially the woman,
that at first their recovery was be-
llcvcd to be Impossible. However.
they received all possible care aud
all recovered. Their story was that
in attempting TO cross from one
island to another u storm overlook
them and drove them to sea and out
of sight of land. They had nothing
to cat and managed to get only such
sustenance as a little rainwatcr was
able to give. The woman was in an
interesting condition and gave birth
to a child while on board the NORTH
erm Light. One of the men speaks
Il little English. They are to be
sent back from here to Australia,
thence to the Fiji islands and from
there to the Gilbert islantls.--,S. II.

EVENING
THE TREATY.

TliE news brought by the mail is
very rc-assuring, in some points--but
in others it does not look so well.
1t appears that the Finance Com
mittcc have sent in q report favoring
its abrogation. but the Committee
on Foreign Relations had this under
consideration. and. up to the time
Of the steamer leaving, had not
taken action. The friends Of the
Treaty believed. too, that they would
not take action this session. and
that now the only thing to be feared
was, lest in the hurry of the last
days of the Executive Session of the
Senate, between now and the next
meeting Of Congress, that some enc
my should rush through a resolution
empowering the President to abro-
gate the Treaty. Otherwise 1t is
safe till the next Session of Con-
yrcss. The President 1s said to be
very much against the abrogation of
the Treaty.
Another point which is OF import
ancc in regard to the Treaty, as well
as to these islands, is the fact that
the Senate passed the new tariff bill
for sugar On February 18th. This
reduces the duty all round by about
40 cents to 81 per cwt., in other
words, makes Il about AZ per cent,
ad ualorem. 1t Was believed
that the Lower House would pass
this, and up to the 2nd Of March.
no indication of any contrary feeling
had been exhibited.
The practical effect Of this win be
TO lower the price that planters here
obtain for their sugar from one half
to Que per cent per lb. This, on an
output of &C, 900 tons, means loss
to the islands Of over 81 100000. On
the other hand it will make the op-
ponents Of the treaty less bitter in
their action against it, as it will take
away one Of their strongest argyll
lnentS.
