Washington Letter. (Prom our Regular Correspondent,/ 1YeshleetOn, May 211,'1)1, One of the surprises of the Behring Sea negotiations is furnished in the an- nounoement made last evening in the English House of Commons by the chan- cellor of the exchequer, to the effect that on Monday next he will introduce a bill authorizing the Queen to prohibit Brit- ish subjeote from sealing in Behring Sete for a period, to be defined among the provisions of the bill. This notion clear. ly indicates that Blr. Blaine's proposal in regard to a closed season has been ac- cepted by the British government, and that this Lear its power will be used in putting au end, so far as it can, to the ex' termination of seals in these waters. The President yesterday received a ciph- er despatch from Minister Lincoln, iu London, informing him of the action of the British Government in the House of Commons. The question engaged the President's principal attention yesterday, and be had uonferenoes at different times on its various phases with Secretary Fos- ter, Secretary Tracy, Seoretary Proctor and Acting Secretary Wharton. One point considered was the advisability of sending war vessels to Babying Sea to reinforce the revenue cutters in prevent- ing the taking of seals in case a closed season is deciied upon. This fleet would of course oo.operate with the English war ships now in those waters in the en- forcement of the agreement as concluded. Itis understood that the Secretary of the Navy reported that there are three naval vessels that could be prepared for this service without much delay. If the agreement should be euforoed, however, a curious contingency might arise in the ease of a vessel sealing in Behring Sea out beyond the three mile limit, and au- thorizingly flying another flag—say that of Germany or Italy. What, in such a case, would be the effect of the British. American agreement ? The more the platter is considered the more evident it becomes that, if the seal industry is worth preaeving, it must be done through a general international arrangement to whish the ma irilue powers girt, then Peewit. The 'white squadron is not to be dis- solved, as a great many navy officers have predicted and as a great many more #?11,v8 hoped that it Weald, but 5118 wishes of Admiral Walker, who eommanda both the white squadron and a vast amount of influence at the department, are to be re- spected, and he is to take his splendid ships around home waters this summer for some extended manoeuvres that are intended to serve as object lessons fur other ships and other commanders. There has been an undoubted effort on the part of certain naval folks outside of the squadron to get the fleet dissolved, but the presence of Admiral Walker in town for the past two or three weeks has given him an opportunity to convince the authorities at the department that the exeroisea of the squadron in Tampa bay have been productive of better results as regards the instruction of the navy in modern pranmuvreing than any aeries of squadron movements ever held. The United States treasury receives many mysterious centribubions sent in by unknown persons whose conscience accuses them of having swindled the gov' ernment in one way or another. These contributions are of course assigned to the 'Iconsoienoe fund." Moat of the frauds thus rectified are oommitted against the Gusto= and internal revenue laws. The majority of people seemed to regard the government us they do a cor- poration, which, having neither a soul to be saved or a body to be kicked, may be cheated to any extent justifiably ; but now and then an individual turns up who gets worried about it afterward, Such penitents send the amount they think they owe to Washington usually, where the sums pass through the hands of the bureau of public moneys into the treas- ury. Contributions of this sort as low as atwo-cent stamp are received, while sometimes they are as high as several thousand dollars. A while ago eight halves of as many $1,000 notes came in, accompanied by a notification that the remaining halves would follow if acknow. ledgement was made of the receipt of the Met consignment. As an earnest of good faith the movers of the third party intend to try to beat Maj. McKinley in his canvaae for the governorship of Ohio. They do not hes. itate to predict that McKinley will be beaten by 20,000 majority. Hon. Jerry Simpson, who is a pronounoed free trad- er, baa been assigned to campaign work in Ohio and a program has been laid out for him. There ie no other campaign to particularly demand his attention, and he will devote considerable time to edu- cating the farmers of the Buokeya state. He will probably go into the first state in June and will make another stumping tour when the campaign grows hotter, near the time for the election. Huron County. Blyth firemen have been presented with $60 in oaab as a token of the way their eervieee are valued by the villagers. Inspector Paisley has planed to the credit of Clinton as the first distribution of the License fund for 1891, the sum of $080.

The GodeSieh Cadets are engaged to take part, in the big firemen's tournament at Seaforth on the 10th inst. They will be in charge of their popular captain, Geo. Stewart.
