We bare been shown by the Hon. J

statement subscribed by a numln-r of rclii
hie American citizens, which I worthy
the attention of the Home Government.
To render the matter Intelligent, It must
be remembered that the 49th parallel which
la our Northern Roundury, runs through
rich mineral country, lying between the
Cascade mountains and the Columbia Ri
er, and that it is absolutely necessary that
miner traveling to and from the different
localities, ninst cros the parallel, A meri-
can miners designing to work In A merican
mines have to traverse a small portion
Rritisli Territory, and Rritish miners have
to pass through a greater strip of our T
ritory to reach the mines in Rritish C'olum
bia. No United .Stales officer is in the
vicinity to guard the revenue, and thus,
largo quantities of English fronds are puss-
d throiijrh onr Territory free of duly.
Rut Americans enjoy no snch exemp
tion. Every dollar's worth of merclmn
di.e, has to pay duties, although it is mere
ly carried through Rritish Territory, en
route, for mines south of the Roundary
line. A Custom Ilnuxo has been stutinnrd
near the line, anil Rritish officers ore ta-
tioned there to make collections. Di
these custom house officers stop' at the col
luction of duties, there would he no jut
CAUe for complaint ; but the following cx
orbitnnt taxes In the shape of Tonnage
Dues, Road Tax, Ac, aro levied:
RoadTsx $10,00
Tonnage Duea per Ton 8.00
Wagons (each) 10,00
Single Teams (each) 4.00
Horsemen 1,.10
All Foreign goods brought into th
United States, not regularly entered nt the
Custom House, nre subject to seizure, mid
it would seem necessary that a Deputy U
a. M irslinl might find work, if gtutioned
near iort Colville.
Our revenue laws should not bo violated
with impunity. JJut our business is now
with the grievance of our fellow citizens,
in being subjected to the nhove enormous
taxes tor merely passinir llirouirh Rritish

impossible, then we demand thut Rritish
miners passing through our Territory should
incur I ke restrictions. Such is the only
method to protect our traders, nnd enable
theur even upon our own soil, to compete
with Rritish Columbians. The country in
that vicinity is fast filling un. Some 400
American miners ere ut present wintering

peeled that our people can long neaceabl

Francisco Mirror says: "Among the cur
rent topics of the day, nono appeals more
directly to the American heart than the
spontaneous outburst of friendly feeling
elicited from the English pep0 tjr our re
ception ot their national darling, the Prince
of Wales,. whose earliest misgivings were
ns to the possible unfriendliness of his re
ception in tho United States, but who
himself acknowledges that he was obliged
to enter the dominions of Uncle Sum be
fore he could sincerely sny that ho had
found a friend. Tho correspondents of the
London journals who accompanied the
I rinee are extravagant in their eulogies or
tho people, nnd physical characteristics of
the United Slates, while the net of the
Pr inee of Wales iu proceeding to Mount
Vernon and planting a tree by tho tomb
of Washington has endeared him to all
true American hearts. In time to come,
when the peerless diadem of England shall
grnce the brow of the future sovereign, he
may find his account in these conciliatory
proceedings. The Prince has returned to
his home, und meanwhile a visit of the
Queen herself to the United States is talk
ed of as on event certain to happen."
