THE CANADIAN COMMISSION.
In my last annual lnssase / referred
to the pending negotiations, With Great
Britain in respect to Canada. A Joint
high commission had been created for
the purpose of adjusting all unsettled
questions between the United States and
Canada, embracing IL subjects. Apart
from these questions the most friendly
disposition has marked the intercourse
of the United States with Great Britain.

This government has maintained an
attitude of neutrality in the unfortunate
contest between Great Britain and the
Boer states of South Africa. The United
States representative at Pretoria was
early instructed to see that all neutral
American interests be respected by the
combatants. Upon the withdrawal of
the British agent from Pretoria the
United States consul was authorized to
exercise the customary good offices of a
neutral for the care of British interests
In the discharge of this function oppor-
