THE OLD Rt?EOIP1 OCTTY
TREATY,
If wo occupy some space in taking
notice of Mr, Edward .l arrer's recent
letter to the New York Sun, it will be
only for the purpose of showing the
Canadian people what kiucl of work

Cartwright -Farrar combivasiou has set
itself to perform We have no expects -
tion of influencing feeling in the Unit -
ted States, and we have no particular
desire to influence that feeling. The
people of the republic will make their
own tariff in their own interest. Can-
ada will take a like course. If the an-
nexation propaganda shall succeed in
convincing the Washington authorit-
ties that it will be wise for diem to con-
tinue exceptional ditties on Canadian
products, oar ouly argument will be
that it will be wise to put exceptional
duties on LTnited States ,products en-
tering Canada.. 'But at present it is
necessary only to tall attention to the
fact that the Canadian annexationists.
advise the United States government
to retain the duties against Canada,
and even to make them higher, in the
hope of driving Canada into annexe,

eiistence of the treaty was wholl
ass
urto the wars spoken of and not th
aty. The treaty went into opera
tion in 1854. In 1853, before the tree
ty became operative, the total export
of Canada, including the value , o
ships built at Quebec was 45,950,325
or 423,801,300. In 1854, after the trea
ty became operative, it felt to $23,019,
188. Not much evidence of prosper
ity from the treaty there. In 1855 the
wars • broke out, and the value of ex-
ports rose to a little more than $28,000
000, and to a little more than. $32,000,•
000 in 7856. The war stopped but the
treaty continued. The war ; had put
up the exports, but the treaty did not
keep them up, for the total fell to 427,-
000,000
27,000,000 in 1857; to $23,472,609 .in 1858
and to $24,766,981 in 1859. Thus af-
ter the treaty had been. in operation
five years, there was no appreciable in
crease in the value of Canadian ex
/stets. In 1860 our exports made a big
jump to $31,612,192, without any as•
signable reason, except perhaps that
the harvest of 1859 was unusually
large. Then the war in the United
States broke out. Men were withdrawn'
frpm productive industry, and con-
sumption greatly increased.. Prices
rose immediately, and during next six
yearsthe average value of all Canadian
exports was $37,600,000 yearly. In
1866 the reciprocity treaty came to an
end. Canadian exports ought to have
fallen off in volutnes, but they did
not. In 1867 the value was $40,476,
102, Nothing is more clear than that
the aid reciprocity treaty was not of
great value to Canada. It enabled
Cauadianfarmers to sell itf the United
States products which otherwise they
would have sold at equally good prices

Up to the hour of noon on Tuesday
the new Cabinet had not been coin-
pleted. A list hacl been prepared for
submission to tde Governor-Geueral

rug last, but it was all infergnatil and
subject to revision. A diliicsilty had
sugbustecl itself as to the position to
be assiguecl to Hon, Mr. Carling•, Mire
ister of Agriculture, or whether the
Premier would eventually yield to pies
sure that had arrisen in certain quart
ors so far as to leave him out of office,
which he was most reluctant to do.
The matters in question where at
length reconciled, so far as the Council
was concerned, by the acceptance by
ale Carling, after great deliberation,
of a membership without portfolio -a
post which he can accept with dignity,
since the offer was 'accompanied by
many warm expressions from Sir John
Thompson, approviup; his past conduct
of ofpieial affairs.
