IN THE HOUR (H 7 NEED. BITTER ATTACK ON GREAT BRITAIN. BY UNITED STATES SENATOR. By 'MceraDh—Presa Assaefaltcn—Ooryi'isht (Rec. May 8, 9.-10 p.m.) Washington, May 7, Senator BristtfW, in tfpposhig the I'rinama Canal Tolls'' Exemption Bill, declared that- the Bill benefited England nioro than tho other nations, England had been tho United States' ciicuiy in every hour of iieed siueo tho revolution. Never since tho American patriots shed their blood on Bunker Hill had Great Britain not rejoiced when America sacfe with misfortunes, Never had her audacity been shoivn stronger than in tho present demand. for tins repeal of the l'olls Exemption clause. Unfortunately for tho United States, it Ji»d an • Administration, temporally itt ohargo <jf its affairs, which, in sentiment, seem* cd more English than American. - It was (ho said) astounding that Great Britain should ask the prated States to, incur tho whole risk o£ building tho canal and then to- give tor (Oteat Britain) all the advantages vfitlMt p'fice'. Tho Carnogio Peace Endwmsnfc had been used to slander its own Gavernment and to stir up strife throughout tlio United States. The debate on thft Bill is likely ?&' be prolonged, as amendments aro forthcoming daily.
