Woad Mr_.Seward, as the Globe calla it, is ceas- ing a• great ferment on the bonder just now. It is unpssible fir travellers to cross by any of the u+nal avenues into the dominions of Ma L iucoln without a deal of trouble and expense. If a person ap- pears directly bef.re the American Consul at. the -point at which he wishes to cross, he has to prove his identity -ant always easily dorso, -and eller that there comer the disagreeable necessity of " forking over " from two to sit dollars for the bit of foolscap, yclept a '• passport." The rata which the Consuls are permitted to charge are sac badly defined that those worthy individuals have it in their power to practice extortion to a very considerable extent, and if report be true they are nothing loth to do all in their power to render the business extremely remunera- tive to ll aturlro if not to their master. They, moreover, manifest • supreme coo - tempt fur greenbacks, which galls mightily the :Americana who have occasion to conte to this silt. R hat earthly good this passport system can do, apart from the drop it throws into the bottomiew bucket of the Federal exchequer, it is imp seible to conceive. It _ moot throw a sinelc obstacle ir, the way of raiders, it wan en- tirely uncalled fpr by any act of the CrtO- dian Governaucnt or' people, and it toe doubtedty leads many intelligent Ameri- cans to leek the got•stein whether they arc not speedily drifting in the •' Centralising despotism," a they term it, of 1':uropean tyrenice. The system appears to be deprecated with equal vigor on beth sites of the line. Canadian journals condemn it a iniquitously umjiat, and the Awcri- can border pap rs denounoe it an being absurdly suicidal, and hence, they il.dig- aently demand that it stall be. exploded at once. The people of :llichig:n, and the W'cstgenerally, are espciilly angry with Mr. Sewarl,anh fail to see why thci- accu3tomed routes of traffic and travel should be thus ruthfully shut up to please the fancy of an illiberal o@leial at it ashilI ton. Whatever the cause may be, one fact is patent, the busi- nese relation, which have so long nubsiet- ell between the two countries bare Ie•cri sunpnded far the past work, and if the ayatew is continued nonioteroourne must be the order not of the day merely but of the cutire scaan. Thu blockin r u h of r Ibe great tLron};h ruutoa of travel has done much damage to the ('anadian and West- ern' Railways. $ercrel trains per ,day that used to be crowded are taken off dtu- getlter, and. the few that do run cannot pouibly pay expense', The attitude of the (:lobe upon this question is somewhat remarkable.
