States during the seme period—that is. paid by: the Wnited States,
The New Treaty.
The Joint’ High Commission is un.
derstood to bave completed a treaty for
the settlement of all questions of con~
troversy between Great Britain. and.
the United States. It is called the
“Treaty ef Washington,” and is on the
whole favorable to the United States,
and will secure the final adjustment of
all differences. From the synopsis given in the Washington National Repudlicam, we learn that a tribunal of arbix«
tration is constitated, to consist of five
arbitrators, one appointed by the United States,one by Great Britain, and
thé Other three each by a designated
sovereign State in Europe or America.
The treaty establishes special rules for
neutral duty and obligation, in addition
to generally received public law, which
rules, although not admitted by the
British Commissioners to have been in
force at the time, are yet, it is agreed,
to retract, and to govern the decisions
of the tribunal of arbitration. This
tribunal may either award damages in
detail or in grows, at its discretion, or
it may refer this ‘daty to a board of
assessors sitting in the United States,
It also shail report from time to time,
with payment to be made accordingly.
The British (ioverament’ trankly ex=
presses its regret for the occurrences
complained of by the United States.
For the adjudication of all other claims
of citizens of the United States against
Great Britain or againat the United
from the 13th of April, 1861, to the 9th
of April, 1865, aa ordinary mixed commission is provided, to sit a} Washings
ton, with an umpire to be nominated
if necessary, by a designated frtenaty4
Pewer. This limitation of time is material in substance, for it confines the
reclamation against the United States,
to the incidents ot actual war. lt is
accom punied also with a declaration on
the‘part of the British Commissioners
to the effeet of excluding claims on‘account of slave property,
No claims of British subjects who resided in the South are to be allowed on
account of cotton seizures,
In regard to the fisheries, in addition
to the liberty already secured to theim
by treaty of 1818, fishermen of the United States shall hive the liberty to
take sea fish on thé coast and shores, .
and in the bays, harbors and creeks otf
the provinces of, Quebec, Nova Scotia
and New Brunswick, and the colony of
Prince Edward’s island and islands ads
jacent, without being restricted to any
distance trom shorwith permission
to land upon svc y coasts, shores and
islands, and also upon Magdalen ‘iss /defendant waived; and it was supposed . this heavy” stock on hand, his mills,
lands, lor the purpose of drying their
nets and curing. ‘their ‘fish, subject of
course, in ¢his ‘respect, to the local
rights of private property; and the.
same liberty is granted to British subjects On the eastern sea coasts and
shores of the United States north ot
the thirty-ninth parallel of latitude.
Thie treaty is not to inclade on either
side shelb fsb, \6r salinon and ‘shad fish:
eries in rivers atid ‘mouths of. rivers,
It is turvher ‘agreed that fish oil ‘and
fish of all kinds, except the fiah of inland lakes and their rivera, aud except
fish preserved in oil, the :predace of

Dominion of Canada, or of Prince Edward’s Island, shal! be admitted in
each country respectively tree of ‘duty:
The privileges thus conceded to ‘the

British Government, but. is not admit. :

those, accorded to subjects of Great . ,
Britain, and to “prevent ‘or avoid con~

the free transit of merchandise to and

as in the United States, and abolishing
provisional export duty on American
lumber on the river St. Joho.
The northwest boundary question is
to be submitted to the Emperor of Germany, each country to be permitted to
produce evidence sustaining its claim:
It will be remembered that the question at issue is, which of ‘the channels
passing the island of San Juan is the
line separating the two countries,
The privileges accorded are consid»

PoLITICAL Straws, — The recent
municipal elections in this State show
a strengthening of tbe Republican
party, anda closing up of the franks
for tle approaching contest. The same
phenomenon is noted elsewhere, and
even in Indiana a healthy and strong
Republican sentiment is manifested in
the recent jocal contests. The Indiannapolis Journal, Speaking of the
election on the 2d inst., says: “The
entire Republican city ticket is elected
by majorities ranging between two
hundred and nine hundred. General
Macualay, our candidate for Mayor,
Jeads the ‘ticket. His majority is 860.
The Republicans elected their candidates in the First, Second, Third and
Fourth wards, while the Democrats
elected .n the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh,
Eight and Ninth wards. The Repubfidence, The Council now stands 10
Republicans to 8 Democrats, The Republicans of. Terre Haute, Lafayette,
Logansport, Greencastle, Shelbyville
and Conbversville have ulso achieved
splendid Republican victories, and redeemed their cities frota Democratic
smisrule and corruption.

tion has sprung op about the waste
flow of the wells between this city and

thus weakening the wells near this

doubtedly great force in this objection.
The statute prohibits such practices,
