The culmination in this latter respect come in 1783, whon, by the Treaty of Versailles, the British Gororament engaged to make "the most positive measures to prevent the Newfound

auders from interrupting in any manner by a34] their competiting" the French fishery. Thứ was a pure act of superfuity of folly, for Eng land bad at that time no local territorial anconat to settle with France, and yet she transformed at s otroke of the pan, and without consulting the Newfoundlanders, a mere right to ocassion- ul accommodation into something ragembling an exclusive right of use and becupation. French diplomatists have not been slow to take. advantage of these extraordinary treaties, and as a result British anbjects have been frusted as foreignnes in their own island, their note and sheds destroyed, and the French installed- from Cape St. John to Cape Ray's absolute minsters of the situation. Some years ago, se we have said, much friction arose, and vehement projesta verò made by the colonists: the result. was a suggested agreement which, according to the Novianadiautors, gave away most of their rights.
