From his manner, how? ever, and general hearing it could easily he NM that he, for oue, was satisfied with the result., and that he did not anticipate any opposition on th* part of the Scnat*?. From sources likely to bo well informed, it ia learned that the treaty grants to the United Stat.a practically everything lt asked for. Hie head, land theory advanced hy tho ("anatlinn repre? sentatives is totally abandoned, and an interpola? tion given to the three-mile limit more in tw cordance with the views svitertaini'd hy all civilized nations at the present time. The treaty of 1818, if an;* reliance can be placed inion these 6ame sources of Information, is amended so as to permit the entry of American vessels Into Canu'lian harbors for any purpose, except to take, buy or cure. Tbe conditions and the regulations to be made according to such conditions, under which American vessels can enter Canadian ports, are, it is said, also clearly defined in the treaty?one will admit of no farther misunderstanding. The disputes of over one hundred years' stand inf? between tho United States and Canada seem thus by signature of this treaty to have roached a termination. Before, however, the treaty ena be made effective it will have to be nititled by a two-thirds' majority In the Senate, it will have to receive the assent of the Dominion of Canalla and the Province of Newfoundland, and will also have to be rat ilied by the Queen. Thc treaty was taken to the Whit? Hostel by Mr. Bayard to-night and will probably be bout by the President to tho Senate tomorrow. 1I1E FIRE RECORD.
