As an example of this we aeed valy direct attention to the hostility displayed towards the opening of the West River, a consamutation accomplished by the British Minister, it is true, but for which the British authorities, with charac- teristic magnanimity and true statesman- like spirit, daimed no special privileges. If ever a Foreign Ministe played the part of the dog-in-the-manger it was M. Gérard, and, to call a spade a spade, the attitude adopted by the French towards the epening up of this splendid waterway to foreign commerce, without international distinctions or reservations, was in every way" contemptible. If we pass any erities upon the French cóministr tion in Tonkin or the uther Coluntus, it is not house of any personal hostility.
