of them were saved, while of the female passengers Meswas the sole survivor.MR.LACASSE'S STORY UF TIE CATASTROPHE.Mr Lacasse was on deck about five o'clock Monday morning when the oollision occurred sul had been ties tor a few hours, They bad à gond passage up to this time, when it was a thick fog.He heard @ horn blow, but could hardly tell in what direction.It was while the steamer war also blowing ber a came u them.He had hardly soy warning of the collision until he saw the ship loom way à crash.He rau down to the cabin, awcue hie wife and brought her on deck.Mrp Lacasse saved nothing but the dress which sbe wore.8he knew but few of Lie passengers on \u2018La Bourgogne\u201d and those wero mostly people she had met on board.Un board the \u2018\u201cCromart ,\" where she vas trested with the greatest kindness, she had to borrow shoes, a hat and cape.Mr.Lacseze had in hia pocket at the Lime hia gold watch end a pocket book containing some papers.Of course the people on the raft had been drenched aud the papers in Mr.Lacasse\u2019s pocket bouk were sonking wet, but safe, and though bis watch had stopped he thought it was not much damaged.he clothes he stood in were the only articles he ssved.His money was io his valise, which now lies at the bottom of the sea.Boon after the providential escape of the raft n man was seen struggling near and he was pulled oo hoard and thus another was added to the list of survivors, Just before the steamer foundered one mao, a cabin passenger, went iosane and threw himself into the wos, \u201c THE STORY OP THE LOOKOUT.Wm.Haley, who was

a piece of wreckoge and koocked out of the whirl and thie was their salvation, BRUTAL ACTION OF THE CREW, When the steamer *Girecian\u2019 had got comfortably decked aud the *'Lillourgogue\u2019s\u201d survivors were able to reach the ears of reporters, many of them told horrifying sod barrowiug tales of their own escape aud the experiences of wavy who perished.Some of the meo sey membersof the \u2018Le Jourge gae's\u201d crew acted in the most brutel manner towards passengers after the collision, attacking them with oars and other weapons is order to prevent them from getting on the life rafts and into the life boats and thus interfered with their chances of escaping.THE CAPTAIN COMMITTED SUICIDE, After the steamer and ship crashed lo- the ship, says that the

and so English opal, served by English energy and Engnr skilled labour, avoiding the North Auweriean culonios, flowed int the United States by the million sterling.Investments are 30 much safer iu a country whose ical situation paves it from the danger of foreign compl ications, said the fir-uoning disciples of the Manchester School, snd if Canada were only wise enough to sever the British couneetion, her position would be equally bappy.Canadas was not wise, and her patriotic advisers have since had leisure to remember a truth not to be fuund in the works of à modern prophet : *A man's ten shall be they of his own hoasehold.\u201d \u201d To Canada\u2019s gain, and the distinct luse of the Stales from the withdrawal of the U, E.Loyalists, ample reference is made, and their beneficent influenes u this country is liken~d to that of the Normus wpon England.All that Canada owes to the French Canadians, \u2014to their quaint Od World ideas and romance, their noblences of mind, their conserva- tises and their loyalty.\u2014is alen acknow- Jedged ; and of the peneantry we read : «ft has à passionate devotion for Csuada and everything Canadian, but unlike the swaguering and noisy putnotism of the Americans, it is mute.\u201d That New World theoretic radicalism, which is largely pro- pod by the Scot, and which has made w Zsaiaud the laughing stock of the world, is hero kept in check by a eonser- variem, tbe imckbune vf which is Loyalist and French-Canadian, says this apologist for our virile land, which, if it Bw produced » Macxeszie and Croke Baowy, bus aluo brought out » statesman like Sir Jonx Macvosaco.Speaking of the trids of the United Empire Loyalists aod their trontment, Avuswcat makes the coimsek, which 3m apperentiy just, \u201cand which, we hope, will not woul the sus- eeptibilities vf vur friends tu the South : \u2014 \u201cPhe Boer is, perhaps, mot the highest type of Western eivilization, but asa fue he is generous and enlightened as eom- pired 1 the Ameriews of the RBevolation- ary era.\u201d A little farther on be mays :\u2014 + She (Canada) is the only daughter-nation born of England up to the present hour, andit was she who, when the light of British Unity burned low in the Council halls, the Mother Country kept it brightly Laraing in her own.For more thans gonerstion her Parliament was Imperial indeed, the Parliament at Westminster Tiperinl only in uame-a fact which, ovum at this late day, g ves print to the sonrnfel remark of au American politician when he heard of Sr Wieæount fully.forgotten, and her vistent steadfastness ; A ar.Ah: who shail to the land she rn mother, is largely lire, und the city has been well fled with attributed to American unfriendliness and British neglect.but more than all to Loyalist tradition.We quote again :\u2014\u2018* Feline British diplomacy hes made her rely upon her own resources to checkmate Yankee designs, State or Federal ; the unscrupulous diplomacy of Washington has made her tenacious of purjume, far-sighted, aud wary.For a high sense of bonor and respect for international law the Dominion is indebted te her connection with the Ku pire.In a dispute with her neighbor she must think, not only of her own, bat of Tipenal interests she must act, not with the bad manners and worse faith permitted to a you: gf country, but as becomes a great Empiro with à noble tradition.That she has proved equal to the task the main facts of her history amply demonstrate Bugland herself has never accepted an unfsir treaty more quietly than Canada accepted the Oregon Treaty and the Treaty of Washington, or carried out distasteful obligations in à better spirit.Her powers of self- restraint were equally tried in the matter of the San Jusn Award, and Ly that stupendous piece of folly, the Peace of (ihent, which paved the way for American claims in the Lasin of the Columbia.Twice war has been forcad on her by the United States.Three times during the years 1866-70 her territory was invaded by Fenian bands, equipped snd organised across the Frontier.American assistance the rebels of was openly given to Upper Canada aud to the half Iwceds in 1870 and 1855.Fur over « hundred years New England fishermen have, at intervals, hed in Duminion waters.Not sn very lung ago Yankoo cruisers forcibly seized Canadian sealers ou the high seas, an act of wer which the England of any other period uf our history would have sjuickly resented.But we were then only just beginning to wake from our dreams of universal peace, and the incident was referred to arbitration ! Unfriendly fealing.too, was the basis of the DixaLey Tarifs, the Aliens\u2019 Exclusion Bill, and the Alaska Railway an Homestead Bill.To these may be added international discourtesies without end, and the evagion vf treaty pledgos inconvenient to keep.| Hesent instances are the maintenance vf gunboats on the Great Lakes in defiance of the Treaty of Washington, snd the refusal to extend bonded privileges at Fort Wrangel.As Me, Macxevat, Premier of Ganads in the early seventies, once remarked : \u2018It is useless to expeet that the United States will fulfil trea'y obligations, | The Dominion, on the other band, has always acted towards the Republic with unfailing courtesy aad in perfect good faith.Not once during her whole earver as an Euglish Colony has she stepped beyond the bounds marked by international law, or involved the Mother Country in a dispute which could have heun avoided.Considering the provuca- tions whe har received and the newness of her traditions as a semi-independent State, her attitude of dignified self restraint has been preserved with mat reranrkable cun- si.tency.The average Brito), to whom Canada is chiefly known by fishery and boundary questions, has auother opinim.He forgets that these have arisen frum her position on the North American Contment aud not from her own fault.Many of the affronts she received, adds the author, would bave proveked Great Britain to war had she sutfered them.Oa the question of the treatment of the red man sds is held up as the unly country againat whom no one ean mil, and the only country which has been uniformly kind and considerate to him.Ten treativs form Canada\u2019s agreements with her aboriginal children.The United States have negotiated nine hundred \u2014 faw of them kept, and the result is that the Americans need thousands of troops to do what 500 Canadian Mounted Policemen do infinitely better.The States have at present within their borders 150,000 red men who have no standing in a Court of Law.In Canada every Indian is a subject of the Quer Our handling of the Clergy Renerves of the divorce question are referred twin terms of the highest adwirarion, and referonce is made tobfie GrouGE CARTIER sayiug : \u201cCanala is the right hand of England.\u201d Suwming up whai Canada has still in view to attain her present visions of Imperial interasts and destinies, AUGKSCAT says :\u2014 sir Winpigp LAURIER is negotiating for a fast line of steamers across the Atlantic.Every effurt is being made Ly the Survey Department to establish tho practicability of à quick route to the Kast by way of Hudson Bay.A gigantic eanal acheme to ennneet Lake Superior withthe St.Lawrence, by way of Lake Nipissing aid Frough River, is being seriously considered, not only hy statesmen, but by capitalists.Wien tinished it will enable the Navy to defend the shore-line aa far as Manitoba, and Ontario to get a share of he grain trade of the West.The latest Imperiai stop nf the present Liberal Ministry is to offer preferential treatment to our sorely pressed West Indian Islands.Fur twenty years past a knot of Canada's leading men, with Sir SasbroRD FLEWING at their head, have advocated the advantages of the Pacific cable scheme, and are doing it now with more spirit than ever.Thess are great undertakings, byt not greater than the fmperis] works already in existence.To this South Africa, Aus: tralia, aud the Dominion herself hesr witness.It must be remembered, tou, that though her growth has been slow, it has tended to give weight and steadiness to political thought, and enables her to absorb aliens with no ill effect.But neither she nor the economists who taunt her with it on this side the water, see it in tht light.Everywhere in the Empire vdr point of view has come to be determined hy the Christianity, of which we boast se much, unly 08 high days and holidays ; on ordinary occasions by the grossest ma- terialum.Because Canadas has pot grown rich with phenomenal rapidity, knows suthing of trusts and huge monopolies, of commercial kings and a selfish plutocracy, of mushroom cities and a population whose ehief characteristic is its cosmopolitanism, she is \u201cto bu damned as unprogressive ! Measured by this standard, England made no progress until the middle of last century.Bit happily for the world there is another and a higher standard by which to estimate the greatnew cf » nation, and ft is by this one Canada rises or falls.As wealth is understood now, she is, no doubt, poor, Batwa country witha population anil resrurces such as hers mus\u2019 bo rich, if not actually at lepet potential'y, and when the day of ber prosperity dawns she will kn-w how to Lear it wisely.Hor industrial expansion has besn où à small scslo as comparod to the United States, but she is mistress in her own house.Her population is not large, bat it is highly dasiplinel and animated by a lofty ideal.The volume vf liar trade may be uticant, but not so the morsi and spiritual forces generated hy a century of effort.While the Republiz has been developing ber material resources with such feverish energy that every sound principle is being lust io the desire to get rich, the Dominion bas teen laying the foundations of 8 great na- During the last few days thera has been a large influx of American visitors 1 wall of hin Siamese superior, who re his post ns à source of personal rove very little can be accomplished in the way vf progress or reform.There nre, for instance, \u2018financial inspectors with à accounts to inspret ;

that they will, on the other hand, successfully conciliate American susceptibilities or ward off American hostility for more than a very brief period seems much more open to question.[t may not be out of place to recall the fact that the arbitration and payment of the \u2018Alabama\u2019 elsims has been looked on in America as a grievance and injustice ever since, Yours, &c., RD.\u201d Either the writer «f the letter ur some other friend having had the écurtesy to invite our atteation to it by merking the copy of the Put containing it, we are under the necessity of replying to some uf the statcinents that it eeutains, lost silence be taken for approval.It je impossible for anyone cognizant of the eondition of affairs in Canada, to subserite truthfully to he allegations of outrageous «flicial partiality for the United States in its conflict with Spain on the part of ths British Government.The filse meutrality alleged agwinst the Government, if practised at all, would be more in evidence here, in Canada, than anywhere else, and every Canadian knows that it is utterly false to charge such official decrptinn and double dealing agaist either the: British or Uanalian Governments.The thoroughness of British neu- teality is so marked in this country, that it is quite as common to hear a Cabinet Minister in Quebec openly professing sym- perhy with Spain, ae it is to hear another sapressing.perscnally, directly oppusite Sentimen 5 and opinions.Where \u201cR.D.\u201d hae heard the cry mised, outside of the Jingo Prem, of ** After Cubs, Cavada,\u201d it would be interesting to learn.Certainly nobody hero either knows of or fears any soch alleged threat.The attack upon the Br tish Government's eflurt to c:ment yet more firmly the friendship between Great Britain and the United States stamps the writer of the letter at once as no judicious friend of the D.ininion of Canada.Rather than alienate the rympatbies and destroy the confidence of the Colonies by their policy of cliwer relstions between Crest Britain and the United States, the Tnporial Government adds to their popularity and esteern iu the Duminion of Camada, which is naturally more deeply interested than any other part of the Empire in the maintenance of close and friendly relations between the great English-speaking powers of the two hemispheres.That it is not alone those of quite recent times, or those who are in sympathy alone with the present dominant party is British polities, who urge a cliser union between Great Britain aud the United States, is evident from the following very recently published lerter of Mr.GravsroNE to his American publishers, CHAuLES SCRIBSER'5 Sons :\u2014\u2018Daimeny Park, Edinburgh, March 17, 1880.Dear Sirs, \u2014I bez leave to acknowledge the receipt of your ubligisg draft for £67 18s.2d.Such lucre as proceeds from labour of the brain [ always estoons the least filthy of that which comes into my hands.And again E have a further pleasure in becoming, in however humble a degree, a vehicle of English thought to the American mind.The union between the countries is close and is likely to grow close still.Elunor to all those who seek to eorroborate the bond !
