The aunouneement in certain Canadian journals that the mission had failed, is entirely without foundation. On the contrary, Sir Sohn Macdonald and his colleagues are meeting with even a larger measure of seeeees than they anticipated, and they are tanfid• lint that an aereetaetat, setist,tctury alike to the Canadien peonle aid to the gentlemen with whom they are in treaty, will he arrived at before long. rThe London papers with one or two exceptions, treated the subject fairly.

ONER 1N TUE LONDON TAIL SWALLOWS A QUANTITY oft' CLASS, At noun on Sunday John Cochrane was taken to the Police Station by his wife and aubsequeutly remanded to jail on a sparge of being daageroue to be at large. He had been dltlitking for some time past, and was soffrliing from nervone exeite'neut bordering On deli- rium tremens. It was just dinner time when he was placed iu No. 2 ward at the jail, and he was dealt out a plate of potatoes along with the other six prisoners in that department. He was surprised when handed a apoou with wbioh to peel the tubers, and asked. Svhytlte(prieouers were not provided with knives. A uliuute afterwards he arose and walked into the water closet, and when a fellow prisoner followed in a few tnoneuts he was found with the j blood giishing from his mouth. He had iu his hand:a few pieces of a fratnelesa; ullrror,nsed by the prisones while shav- ing,aud around bis neck was a harmless scratch from which but little blood oozed out. It was at once surmised that he had attempted suicide by swal- lowing portions of the mirror, and this theory was borne out by Cochrane's ackowledgnlellt. The turnkey land jail physicau were called, and owing tct the startling amount of hemorrhage, and the nature of the case, all hope was abandoned of the unfortunate m'an's re- covery, Nearly half a galla'a of blood was vomited, Dr., Payne wall aunimon- ed by Mrs. Cpctirane as a least resort, and mads an examination of the would- be suicide's throat. Just, as be was turning to leave Cochrane had a violent vomitting fit and spat out a large piece of glass two inches and as half in length and one inch in width, 'which bad been lodged deal) doavu in his throat.

American rings grad corners bad completely crushed all attempts to introduce manufaotnre,s into Canada, and would have oontiv.ned to do so tin- lese Canada, by her r ew tariff, had en- deavored to prevent it. The new tariff has already forced the Americana to clamor for a rEcip rated treaty, which previously had been contemptuously refused.
