The Hay-Pauneefote Treaty.

From various English sources We gather
the impression that in allowing the Hay
PauncefOte Treaty TO lapse, Lord Lans-
downe. British Secretary Of State for For
eign Affairs, imagined that he was admin
istering a deadly sRub 70 this country. and
Furnishing 1t cruelty for its bad treatment
Of his old friend in the Little Breeches-"
If that impression be correct, the noble
Marquis does not require accident insur-
ance. 4 powerhouse smoke stack might
fan down upon without Earring him
In very truth, he could not have done a
thing more acceptable 10 the intelligence
and patriotism Of the United States than
10 xiii that contract Of seryility 10 Great
Britain. II is out of the way now, and
the old Clayt0n-Bulwer corpse 1t sought
10 galyauize into life disappears with it
or viii IS soon as d vote can be taken on
its formal abrogation in Congress.
In the Senate yesterday. Senator Nor
gan told his colleagues some sound Ameri-
can truths on the subject Of this treaty
and of the British Government purpose
10 hamper and delay construction Of the
Nicaragua Canal in the interests of the
Suez Canal The latter waterway has
turned out to be a first-class Investment
Of about eighteen per cent As Senator
Morgan explained. the opening Of an
American Iuter-oceanic canal Wouid divert
a great deal Of commerce from the Suez
route. and that consideration, coupled
with Great Britain's unwiuiugness TO see
the United States possessed Of the com
nerciai power and prestige the Nicara-
qua Canal would give il, sufficiently ex-
,5lains the opposition from that quarter.
The Clayton Bulwer Treaty which sue
cessive British Governments have used
as = club over our heads for fifty years.
IS thing which a single American kick
would resolve into a pinch Of aaast- The
politicians on the Otls-r side all the while
they have been conjuring with it, have
known that ii never was in force. legally
speaking: or. that if it Was. their own
Government killed 1t in 1852 But no
American administration has had the
courage to recommend its formal abroga-
ton. Congress should wait 10 longer for
executive suggestions on the subject II
s. a fictiOnal block on the wheel OF our
material progress, and it should be ditch
ed as soon as that can be done. AS Sena-
tor Morgan justly observes. Great Britain
