The pate lie buildings are good, hot the bouses are inordinately unaii and in most uataocesi seemed cramped. lam told that this u on account of the expanses of heating in srm ter. wcieh a>e very great, a A hence the ph Uosopny of having a umali boose to * arm. The country is beautiful in some pace*, and although there uno distinct type of femi oine beauty, the darker tJa.uadian girl* are exceedingly pretty. The lack of 'general wealth tbroorbout toe country unotice*b e in the ahaecce of showy ecjuipages, well w*Ted street* and expHMiveiy built nousea. Nor do th# people eeam to" be inclin'd to pay much for aomaeatstita. A city of the .ze of Montreal, which I believe numbers 000, ha ae raguiar theater and ftepead* a poo travehng and excmdingly bad snow* for it* entertainment at this aeaaoa of the iear. During the week, for instance, there baa been only one theatricil performance in town. The feeling in Canada about the retali ation mease re . § very strong. It is the only question which intrudes itaelf into conver sation at ail poihte and about which all Can ad .an* speak with equal interest. It U, in fact, a vital interest with them, although it it only one of many in the United State*, and it i* indicative of tba. tendency the country is taking toward commercial union and an teration. The tremendous prosper!ty of the state of Michigan since it became a part of the union i* taken a* a fair indication of what the state of prosperity would be if the boundary line were thrown down and there were no restrictions in the trade of the two countries. The theory which Add* the readiest acceptance nere i* that of Krastus Wiman. He lias pointed out that Canada is a series of states among which there is free trade, and thst within its border* it i* prosperous. In the same way the United mates i* acoliecti /ti of state* which trade with each other on a baai* of absolute equality, a. and everything within it* bor bers is also prosperous. Yet tbe*e two giants of commerce, the Dominion and the United (Hate*, lie side by side, divide! by a barbed wire fence 4,000 miles long, which hampers the interchange ofgoodsaud fa ces both countries to g> to no end of bother, confusion and expense. A* the custom* which the United States pays to Cana la average about the same a* those that Can ada pa/a to the United States there would seem to b# no proper reason why the 4,000 mile barbed-wire fence should not no kicked down and the two countries be a! lowed to trade in peace and equality. Toen they could whoop thing* ■ pall along the line by putting up a wire fence of ind.sjiutabK majestic and heroic proportion* ail round the North American continent, barring out from competition with the two count: its tbe whole civilized world; but wit in this protective fence the vanoui commercial in terest* .and trade* of the entire continent would mingle as freely and unrestrictedly as the droia ol water in Lake Superior. This i lea of commercial union u of verv recent birth and it i growiug vigorously, f find that many of the most enterprising business men now in Canada favor it strongly. There is, however, a consider able tory (dement here and a great deal is said about loyalty to great Britain, what is due to to the mot tier country, and soon, but more selfish interests are getting a large and \nprossive start of loyalty. Canada is anti always has been perfectly independent in commercial matters, keeping her old mother outoi competition as rigidly as shuli.as tier many, and hence it mav be reasonably pre dicted that tbs commercial spirit wdi carry her into commercial union some day. Trie President's action on the fishery mat ter ha* curiously enough accomplished what an endlesa amount of internal agita tion had failed to do. The Canadians have been driven together, and a feeling of pa triotism ha* been developed. This senti ment has, low ever, little to do with Great Britain. It believes iu Canada itself a* a nation and encourages the independ ence. Once Canada arrives at the point where she believes implicitly iu herself and ceases to rely on Great Britain, one-half of the battle is won. And this is very much the case even now. Canadians point to the many commissi u.s which have been entore l Into by Great Britain w ith the United Htat< ns to boundary and other matte: s, and rightly or wrongly, many Canadians think that their inter sis have been sacri ficed in order that; Great Brtain should maintain le-r own position tix-a-ris to the Americans.

He doesn’t say much a* a rule, despite ms plentiful ampli tude of word*, but be ha* feelings and they are violent. Toe far: i* the Canadians are a trifle more imprs***i with tbeir own im portance than a strict consideration of the facts warrant. They *peak of a war with tbe United States in a pitying way at time* as tbAign toen: would not be much chance for u* ia the event of an outbreak.
