NEW CANADIAN STEAMSHIP SERVICE.
A considerable number of persons travelled from Paddington, on Wednesday to Milford Haven, on the inviting of the chaimmat of the Canadian Steamship Company and of the chairman of the Milfont Docks Company. The special object of the expedition was to participate in the inauguration of a new line of steamers to Canada bound for a new port by a new route. For the new line and route many advantages are claimed. It is urged that the port of arrival in Canada, which is named Paspebiuc and lies at the end of the Colonial Railway on the north side of the Bay of Chaleurs, is free from ice all the year round, that the route is substan. tially shorter than any other between this country and Canada, and that { is a great trade to be developed. The Gaspesin, the first vessel, to make the trip, started for Canada yesterday morning under happy aus pices, for she has a good gargo and a large of passengers, including to be preliminary difficulties to be encountered by those who desire to make Mil- ford a port of arrival and departure for ocean going liners have been overcome. The dis- tance from Paddington to Milford is 247 miles, and it was accomplished on Wednesday in five hours and a half. Some of the navelling was very fast indeed, being at the rate of quite 62 miles to the hour."

If the French had been content with Canada they might perhaps have kept it till now, but they tried to seize the whole interior of the continent, and to keep out the westward flow of British population by a line of military posts. After describing the creation of Ontario by the inflowing thousands, of United Empire and of emigrants from the mother land, the lecturer told in brief the history of the North West and British Columbia, and concluded by suggesting that British manufacturers should display some energy in taking advantage of the preferential tariff established in Canada this year. It was of no use to have an open door if they would not go in. At present Canada took quantities of goods from other countries which we could supply, even without a reduced tariff, if our manufacturers were more anxious to please their customers.

The course of conduct on the part of the French that led to the conquest of the Canadas by Great Britain is the same course of conduct that the French are now pursuing in Indo- China.
Not content with Cochin China, Annams and Tonquin they are attempting to seize the whole interior of the peninsula and to Jan, extend themselves from sea to sex.
