The bill which passed the Sena'r a few d ivs since giving the Pre-i --dent power by proclamation to im poge certain retaliatory measiir s on Canadian fishermen and shipping in American ports has aroused tin Canadians to the highest pitch ol ’ excitement and caused them to say • Borne very haish things about then yankee cou-ins Rut their cousins mean business all the same and. no matter what may be the dam >ge to the business of the t .vo countries, thev mean th it Ainericm fisher men shall n »t be om t iged hj Can i da by any unjust discriminations against them by the Canadian g.iv arntnent, without having a dose of the s irue medicine given to Cana dians in American ports. The bill is now before the House Commit tee on Foreign Relations and will ceitainly become a law, and what it- more the law will be enforced It is not improbable that the two countries may become engaged in mc ual warfoe a a not very di taut day.

Dxvitt the great Irish agitator, addreese-1 a monster mass meeting in Ne\j York on Monday evening last. He devoted a large' part of hi- speec t > the troubles of! Ea'her McGlynn, th- <l‘po ed pas tor <4 >t. Siephen'B Catholic church of \'-w York, whi was suspended a week ago, for being over zealous in the support of Henrv George, the late “labor candid de*’ for Mayor of fa it city, and for making the decla fa’iou that “(here should be Uo such thing as iudividu d ownership in land,” in opposition to the known views and directions us the church ! authorities at Rome. Mr. P-v it I made a vigorous cefcnce of Dr. Ms Glynn’s po-ition and was biit-r 'and merciless in Ins denuiciatiori of Cardinal Simeoni, who is the Pope’Secretary, charging him with being the tool of England and act ing in concert with that country to persecute the Irish people and ob obstiuct their cause. Every time the Cardinal’s name was m-nfit ned by the speaker it w s receivtd with iiis.se> and groans by tha great gathering. He advised in his >pe ch that Dr. McGlynn should go to Rome and present Ids case and hie theories to t e Pope in per.-on. Dr. McGlynn has th- entire membership of St. Stephen’s church at his back and about $’0.(l0l> have been raffed for liis support h y eri thusiaS'ic admirers. Father Don nelly who lias been assigned to the chuich in place of Dr McGlynn, lias met with the gieatest ii dignities by by the congregation which refits to contribute a penny for his sup port. it this writing a nnmlw <4 of determined women bad taken posse-sion of the cliuri h and had to i>e fprcudv ejected by a squad of fifty polieem- n. 'I he case has a>- umed national proportions and ilii fin -I result of this clash between tne chinch and the Irish leaders will he -■agerly looked lor by the publ (• everyth- re. 'I he leaders have the people now, but there is scarcely i d-mbt ih it when the Pope nets in |a rson all oppO'ition to his decree ill cease. H O.HEN NO T TO VOTE. On Tm*> I -v last tin- (l-iiied S nti s -emite by a vote of 34 to 16 di ided .gaii si ilm pioposed amendment •> Im cuDStltiii inn all owing woianti U vote, feuaior B own, opp-n-ed t.m proposition ami said that as a mem ber of the select committee on wo rn m stiff a-ie he li d signed (with Senator Cockrell) a minority r< port io which 'hey had -ought to e.-tab lish lie f’lci that the p oposed legislation would be injudicious and unwise. He should not hesitate to rei erite tn-d-y a portion of whit he find then Said. He believed that 'he Ur tor intended that the Sillier ol in des and females of the titin a-r i e should be different, and that heir diuiea and obligations, wnile thex differed materially were w io equ dly important and equally honorable It was doubtful, he said, whether llie man or the Woman had now the in-st infln nee in government d iffairs. An intelligent, i oble, cul tivated Wi man was a power behind th throne. All h r influence was in favor of morali'y and good gov ernment. She n-w exercised an mperceptible influence in public -flairs mneli ereater than she couM if female suffrage were enacted It might be a gratifica'ion to a small minority ol women, but it woul I be i cruelty to n large m -joi ily ol lln in T'he most ign< rmt and less re fine'* portions ol the fem de popula turn (to sav nothing us tlm l a-ei classes) won d flock to the polls, while ihe refined, inteligent and virtuous women would stay ai home. Thus there would be a vast preponderance of ignorance and vice at the polls. Thing- are bad enough now in that connection. Was the Senate ready io expo.-e women to -uoh demoralization and the country to such a s rain in order merely to gratify a small minority at the expense of mortification to a large majority. He regarded the movement as an attempt to reverse the very I -ws of being. Neither ihe plnsical nor moral laws ol nature could be reversed, but this was a movement to attempt to re vere those laws. His opinion was tha a very large majority of the of the American people (and even ot the lemale sex) oppose this move meat, and they Were wise in doing so. He therefore protested agaii.st tile passage of the resolution. AGAIN REJECTED. The United States .'-enate in s - cret session has r<-j cied the nomin of Mr. James C. Matthews to be Recorder of Deeds in Wa-hingion city it will be remembered tha Mr. Matthews was rejected by the Senate la-t winter an i s-on after the adjournim nt of Co: gross Bresi dent Cleveland appointed and comm s ione-1 him as Rec >rder It is wry gener-ilix admits d th t Mr Ma'thews i- in •v r w a y qn.-ldi d fOi the office in,d hat hi? admini - nation of the position ha been a great improvement on Lis piedeces I >or, Mr Fred Douglas One of 'he I grounds of opposition to Mr. M a'thews was that he is a citizen of New York, but that is not a v ■ i 1 excuse in the light of precedents. I has also I c-aii stated that he would ! be rejected because he is a coloied D. m-icrat, which, if tme, ought to be known by the country. We don’t know if the sia f ement has been made by any one in a position to know, but the idea of such a cause bei g possible to be given for rejecting a nominee *o an im portant ( slice in this free republic, is abhoirelit to the genius ai d tra ditions of our government, (adored Democrats aie entitled to the same cons’deraiion by the Repub ic-m Senate as ate white Democrats, and anv other rule that givorsof p'o sciiption on account ol color must c dl forth the condemnation ol every intelligent colon d man in the ■ ovntrv. h is u-eless however, to specu late on the reag ms of Mr. Mat thews’ rej etion uhen it i- impos-i --l>le to obtain them owing to ihe practice ol consideiing (>miuaiion> in seciet Session.
