isting Reciprocity Treaty. Such con-
tinuancc, in view of the relations
of that country with the American
system of States, should, in my
Judgment, be favored" The neu-
trality laws bad been successfully
enforced during the recent revolu-
ton in IIayt. Various European
Governments, especially that of
Italy, had displayed anxiety for the
abolition of American import duties
upon works of art. 4 continuation
Of the discrimination in favor of the
work of American artists abroad
might, rs some of the latter feared,
result in the practical exclusion Of
our painters and sculptors from the
rich fields for observation, study and
labor which they have hitherto en-
ioyed." The prospects, announced
that the long-pcnding revision of the
foreign treaties of Japan may be
concluded ut n new conference to be
held at Toxic. The Reciprocity
Treaty with Mexico is commended
as one of the first objects for the
attention of Congress. One of the
most important subjects Of the
message is the Nicaragua Canal, and
we give the reference to that in
full =
With the Republic of Nicaragua a
treaty has been concluded which
authorizes the construction, by the
United States, of canal, railway
and telegraph line, across the
Nicaraguan territory. BY the terms
of this treaty sixty miles of the river
San Juan, as well rs Lake Nicaragua,
an inland sea, forty miles in width,
arc to constitute part of the pro-
jcctcd enterprises. This conveys, for
actual canal construction, seventeen
miles on the Pacific side and thirty
six miles on the Atlantic to the
United States, whose rich territory
on the Pacific is, for the ordinary
purposes Of commerce, practically cut
off from communication by water
with the Atlantic ports. The polit
ical and commercial advantages of
such 4 project can scarcely be over
estimated. 1t is believed that when
the treaty is laid before You, the
justice and liberality Of its provisions
will command universal approval at
home and abroad.
The remainder of this abstract
will appear tomorrow.

The unlawful practice of leaving
horses unfastened and unattended
on the street should be put down
with n strong hand. 1t is fraught
with peril TO the lives and limbs of
the public, and with danger to pro-
perty. If the police were less sleepy,
the evil could be suppressed very
quickly. A sufficient number of
examples could be made in the Police
Court on any day to have at least 4
weeks wholesome effect. Then the
operation could be repeated, and the
next interval of general good be-
havior would doubtless be longer,

say without bOasting that during all

The cowardly attempt of a young
money aristocrat TO murder an editor
in San Francisco has called out q
widespread expression of opinion on
the Pacific Coast against that mode
of replying to attacks of newspapers
upon persons whose actions are
legitimate matters of public criticism.
1t is to be hoped the wealth of the
culprit's family in that case will not
prevent full justice being meted out
for whatever degree of crime events
may determine the act to be. The
tyranny of wealth is bad enough,
but if murder is to be allied to it
with impunity, Nihilism will have at
least one justification.
