OnnnIs and Continental Union.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: In the mat
ter OF your editorial on the ship canal from the
great lakes to tho sea, published Sunday morn
ing, allow me to point out that while you
showed your usual discernment in stating that
the best route Is through the great lakes to the
st. Lawrence River, you erred in naming Mon
treal as the natural terminal.
On the contrary. Now York city Is the natural
terminal, for two reasons One. that the great
freight movement is in the domestic trade. in
which Montreal has no part; and, second, that
tho season of navigation between New York
and Lake st. Francis is two months longer than
the season between Montreal and the Straits OF
Belle Isle.
Therefore, tho southern connection would ex-
tend the season of navigation at Montreal two
months or moro In the year. and making the
Canadian water outlet for this period through
United States territory would be the most now.
erfnl OF all in favor of continental
union. and of peaceful policies until such union
be accomplished.
1t is obvious that New York is not interested
in the supposed military aspect OF the canal
problem. but she is interested in the commercial
side OF Il.
When the ship canal ia built New York will
be it's terminal. New York will have the best
and cheapest possible transportation with tho
interior The one down.gradc route from tho
Rocky. Mountains to the Atlantic coast Of tho
United States will terminate here. and will for.
ever insure to New York the commercial SUI
premacy Of the world.

grant his request; and that for reasons
similar to those which had previously
thwarted the purpose Of our Consul'Gen-
eral. Mr.. CALHOUN and Gen. LEI were per
mitted to 10 only two miles from Havana,
to the town of G~uannbacoa, where DIR.
RUIZ was killed, and where they held
an investigation into the circumstances OF
Ru1z's death. While the two American
officials were on the way there, and dur
ing the few days of their stay there, they
were 20 closely watched that they could
never look beyond the Spanish guards. Mr..
CALHoUN's views in Cuba were narrow;
his experiences were humiliatlng, and the
information he acquired was small in
amount. II our memory Is correct, he was
permitted to make a run as far as Matan-
zas, where he was able to see a large body
of Spanish troops. The President's Special
COMMISSIONS soon left Cuba, having been
prevented from executing the moro Inn
portant part Of his instructions, and with
out pursuing the larger investigation which
he had been directed to mako, IL possible.
wEYLER prevented him from learning the
state of affairs In Cuba
1t seems, however, that, notwithstand-
ing E1Lhh y ODbJTuCtlOu, ITcSlueuL NlC-
KINLEY is yet DESTROYS Of obtaining from
Cuba moro satisfactory information than
he has been able to secure up to this time.
BY dispatches to THE Sur from Havana,
We have learned that tho President has
sent to Cuba another trusted agent, Mr..
FIsHBAoK, who has been instructed to
make an inspection of the American con-
sular offices In the island, in tho company
Of Consul General FrTzHUaH LEE.
Most assuredly, it is within the right Of
this Government to inspect Its consular
offices in Cuba, and to send to Cuba for
that purpose such agents as it may choose.
WEYLER does not possess the authority to
issue any order prohibitory Of this inspec-
tion, or to make any attempt to prevent 1t.
No such interference could be tolerated, as
it would be in violation of treaty rights
and international customs. He Is bound to
protect our inspectors while they are within
the Spanish lines; and, II they shall &c be-
yond those lines, 1t will be at their own
risk and hazard.
We take a deep interest in this mission
Of Mr.. F1sHBAoK. II he is the right kind
Of a man, he will perform the duties of It
to the satisfaction of the President and Of
the American people.

Another Mission to Cuba.

About ten months ago our Consul.Gen.
eral at Havana was DESTROYS of making a
journey in Cuba, for the purpose of visiting
those parts of the island at which our sew
eral Vice-Consuls are located. We have
fourteen vice-consular Offices in Cuba, and
it was Gen. LEES purpose to make an In.
spection of them, the report of which was
designed for the information of this Gov.
eminent.
The Spanish authorities at Havana were
unwilling that he should make the Journey.
saying that. as the island was in a state of
Instruction, he could not travel in safety.
Gen. WEYLER could not give him a snlro
c0nduct beyond the Spanish lines; could
not provide him with an escort, could not
do anything for his protection In the terri
tory controlled by the rebels. Gen. LEE him
self was ready to take all risks, but Spain
insisted that his life should not be endan-
gered. So many instructions were placed
In his way, so strongly was WEYLER op-
posed 10 his purpose, that he gave up his
plan, and never made the inspection which
he had been DESTROYS of making. The truth
Is, that 1t was not to SPANS interest
that Gen. LEE should obtain direct knowl.
edge OF the state of affairs in the yarious
provinces of Cuba, or ascertain by per.
sonal observation the motions of the reyo.
luton. His report thereupon would prob.
ably nave been of a disturbing character.
Again, in May last, when President Nc.
klNLEY sent Mr.. WILLIAM j. CALHOUN
to Cuba as his Special Commissioners for
the purpose of making inquiry as to the
killing of DIR. RUIZ, and as to other matters
OF Importance to this Government. the
Special Commissioner received from the
President instructions the execution of
which would enable him to obtain such in.
formation respecting the progress of the
war as was needed at Washington. When
Mr. reached Havana, he sought
permission to travel to parts of Cuba where
he could procure the desired knowledge.
Gen. WEYLER declined. or. rather. he
directed Gen. ARMADA to decline. to

an Incentive to retain the present system.
Yet we had hoped that the new policy Of
the Choctaws might ave found imitators.
A few years ago the representatives of the
FIVE tribes, in a meeting at Eufaula, de.
nounced the Dawes commission and re.
fused to make n terms with It. Since
then the Choctaws have broken up
the unity Of the tribes on this question.
The five tribes were exempted especially
from the operation of the severalty allot-
ment law, because the treaties Of the Gov.
eminent with them pledged to them home
rule, and We must keep faith with
them. But while we should refrain from
forcibly taking away any Of their vested
rights, the true interest Of the tribes
seems to lie in accepting the overtures
which Congress has made to them.
They should become American citizens In
the fullest sense, abandoning their tenure
Of lands in common, and substituting for
that tribal authority, which is a relic Of
their savage condition, Government under
the form Of a Territory n ultimately Of a
