And this is the state of thb!gs to which there are people in both countries who ap- parently desire to return. If we had treat- ed our responsibility as lightly as some of those who criticise the result of our labours, we should long ago have relinquished our Mak in •despair. (Great applause.) You will readily believe that it was Lot an easy task for us to reconcile contending views and conflicting interests. Both sides believ- ed that they were absolutely and entirely right. Both aides in a controversy always do. (Laughter.) Neither side probably hilly appreciated the strength of the argu- ments that might be brought forward her the other, and it was only the anxious desire all of us lima to cement and confirmthe friendly relations between Great Britian and the United States that encouraged us- to pursue our labor. THE REsIILT Or THOSE LABORS is now before you. It is admitted, not to the impassioned prejudice of partisans, but to the calm and. sober judgment, to the aorninon sem and. reason, and, above all, to the friendly feeling of the peoples of both countries. (Hear, hear and applause.) • I have seen this treaty denounced as a surrend- er. It is rather an interesting fact that on the same da,y I received a copyof an i im- portant newspaper published n Canada, • which denounced our agreement as an ale- jeet betrayal of all the rights of Cenada— • --(applause and laughter)—and the same morning I read an article in an •itfluential organ of public opinion published in New York which declared that the humiliation of • the United States wag now oomPlete, and: that there had been a cowardly ebandon- *sent of all the claims and contentions of , WEER TrIaismans, I have never concealed my opinion, and bade it here trenight, that it was only good. policy on tba part of Canada, it was only whet good zeiglthothood denim:idea of Can- ada, that she ehould not interpret these legal rights in their ettietest SCuSe, but that they thould concede to a friendly nation all the conveniences And. all the privilegee that they could possibly Accord without aeriours injury to their own eubjects. (Hear, hear, and applease,) Canada deolinee, and always has declined, to allow her ports and barbora Proindence lee plum:din closeprox. imity to the great fisheries oi Wee banks—to allow those porta and harbors to be made BARR OF OVERATIONS FOE COMPETITORS who rigidly exclude her from their markets.

We have settled another matter which has been .OZ OF CONSTANT CONTROygItSF since „this Convention of 1818. We have deliniited. the e'icolusive fished- waters of Canada, You are aware that it -has been the contention of the Dominion supporters by highlegal authority that ander that treaty the ashermen of the United States were debarrred from fishing within three miles ofany of the bays or harborlidif Can- ada. On the other hand, the United States have contended that they were entitled to fish anywhere within three miles of the shore, whether in bays or outside of them. We have settled the difficulty by what may be called. a compromise, but at ana rate by an arrangement which is itt accordance with the lateet international law. We have set. tied it substaatially in agreement with the principles of the North Sea Convention, the latest instrument of the kind in Euro- pean diplomacy, and we have tattled it in a way that I firmly believe will be eatis. factory to every reasonable and fair-minded man. I have seen it objected to that certain land -locked bays of Chaleur and Miramiciii have been exoludel Of course they have been exeluded, because these bays come by nature under the exclusive territorial juris- diction of Canada. I should like any Ameri- can who may be present here to -night to say how he would like to apply the ten -mile limit or thiee,mile limit to the shores of the United States ot America wieheut 'taking care ee exclude such, bays aS the DelaWare Bey, cei the Chesapeak Ba,y oe the other sertell'esfruariee or bayson the coast of the United,States.

(Hear, hear and loud applause.) Now, gentlemen, I hope bavo not wearied you by—(cries of no, go on)—by dealing in Rome detail with the separate provisions of this treaty; but I leave been mamas before I left your shores to do anything which lay in my power to remove some of the misapprehenstonswhichitseem. ed to me prevailed itt somequarters respect, - leg it. The plenipotentiaries on both sides were animater' by a feeling of arodety as to future poseibilities if an agreement were not arrived at, animated also by a strong cleave to draw closer the ties between the two greatest nations of the earth, England and America.. (Hear, hear.) They prepared and submitted this agreement The respon- sibility now rests npon other shoulders. It rests in the first place, no doubt, upon the people of the lJnited States, a country where public opinioti is all-powerful. It resta up- on the Senate of the United States, upon that great legislative and executive body which in the past history of the country has played so distinguished arole,and'for mypart I cannot bring myself to doubt that they will RISE TO THE ImroATARCE or THIS GREAT °MAME, that they will not suffer party interest to influence them in a matter of international welfare, and that they will do all in their power to aid our efforts in promoting a con- cord upon wbich the peace and well-being of the world may depend. (Hear, hear, and applause) I trust that they will remember the words of General Grant, written by him when heewas almost on his death bed, and which may be considered, therefore, as his last legacy to the American people. At the closing chapter of his memoirs he says; -'- 'England and the UnitedStates of America are natural allies --(hear, hear)—and ought always to be the best of friends." (Prolong- ed applause.) That great worrier, who had fought more battles and won more victories than any man en history, did not look upon war with the eomplacencer with which it is regarded' bY irresponeible politidians and editor e of newspapers. (Tumultuous and deafening applause.) General Grant thought he saw the bet guarantee for, peace in the friendship, which he deemed it his duty to promote. • !That' friendship, believe mee is important to the intereete of both our na- tions, It is dictated by our common oeigie --(heae, hear)—by the ties of blend and of history, by, our teaditionse. and gentlemen, I believe that there is no higher ambition eopper salts bre irapragaated the weed, end when harried, it SIVOs pee t.he meet "betietifal greenan pek-1o1s,i."
