The announcement, and through a conservative paper, the Toronto World, that Sir Adolphe Caron had been disturbed for some time by charges of corrupt praotioes, -r- preferred against him in anonymous letters addraaaed to ha govwnor-gensral, that ho had taken some pain to locate tha writer, and that, with the aid of expert in handwriting, it had been finally decided he was no other than the redoubtable Dr.

Montagna, produced on Saturday a pro-bond sensation. The revelations mode in connection with this busir show clearly tha tattering ooaditioa of the government, tottering to a foil. Even conservative papers admit that the cabinet is new in a very bad way, that one of the minister referred to, perhaps both of them, will have to retire in disgrace. The Ottawa Journal, independent conservative, rafleets the feelings of so -many in an article from whioh we extract the following At such a juncture no Canadian need feel presumptuous if he venture to express the opinion that paanut politics in this country have ooomi to a head where a bi would be a god-sead.

Obtained Abroad And PnbUshad By tha London Chronicle ford Aberdeen Was Party To tha Docamaato-dorprlaa At tha Creation Of British Sentry Loxdon, Jan. S. Tli special commissioner of the Chronicle telegraphs to bu paper this morning the officiul cormpoo-donee, hitherto unpublished, between the governments of Great Britain and Vene-suela during the period betwesn November, 1840, when sir Robert, Hohombnrg was appointed commissioner by the British government to survey the western territory of British Guiana, and. April, 1842, whoa England finally remersd tha boundary posts which he baa let at various point in that territory to form the to-oalled Schomburg line.

It appears from thU eorrespoodanoe that in October, 1841, Senur Fortique, Venezuelan ministar in London, wrote to Lord Aberdeen, secretary of state for foreign affairs, expressing surprise at the erection id a British sentry box upon Venezuelan territory, ana urging the neoessity of entering upon I treaty of boundary as a previous step to I tha fixation of limits. Lord Aberdeen replied to this on Ook 21st, saying that he had received Robert Bahomburge repork It appears, Lord Aberdeen continued, that Robert Schom-burg dented the boundary poets at certain points in the country he surveyed, and that he was fully aware that the demarcation was made between the government of Great Britain and Venezuela, but it dose not appear that Mr. Schomburg left behind any guard-houses or sentry boxes or building bearing the British flag. Senor Fortique replied to this on Nov. 18th, asserting that Mr.

Sohombnrg doubtless overstepped liia instructions by planting at a point at tha mouth of tha Orinooo several post bearing the Queens initials, and he has raised the British flag at tha same place, with a show of armed force. He has also performed sots of domiuon and 8eoor Fortique reminds Lord Aberdeen that Venezuela had not received an answer to her proposal to arbitrate the boundary before Mr. Schomburg started, and that by au not of extreme courtesy to the British government Mr. Schomburg had not been forcibly expelled. No reply being reoeived, Senor Fortique again, on Deo.

8th, addressed Lord Aberdeen, insisting upon the oonolosion of treaty end the removal of Mr. Sohomburgi posts, protesting against the delay, and quoting a promise made by the governor of British Guiana to two Venezuelan commissioners, that no forts should be erected or troops sent into tha disputed territory. Lord Aberdeen broke the silence on Deo. 11th, oonffrming the Schomburg line as a mare preliminary measure, and objecting to the removal of the post, whioh afford the only tangible means by which Gnat Britain bpreparad to discuss tha He oontinnee These posts an erected for that purpose, and not, aa the Venezuelan government appears to apprehend, as indications of dominion ana empire on the pert of Great Britain. Senor Fortique, on Jan.

10th, 1842, regrets that he is obliged again to insist upon the remove! of the past, end he predicts that their non-removal would give rise to disorders. Ha points to the example of Venezuela ana the united states of Columbia, which first made a boundary treaty and then delimited the territory. The Chroniclee commissioner, in hi despatch, then quotes Lord Salisbury's despatch to secretary Olney, to the enact that these posts were removed on the distinct understanding that Great Britain did not thereby abandon her claim to that position, and in this connection he gives two documents from the governor of British Gniana, dated Demerara, March 0th, 1842, and one bom Mr. OLeary, British consul at Canons, doted April 8th, 1842, both expressing the hope that nil ground of remonstrance will be removed by Great Britain's concession of the removal of Mr. Schom-burga landmarks from Barinia and else hara.

The Chronicles commissioner then oon-cues as follows Observe that there is no word Indicating the condition asserted by Lord Salisbury. If the foregoing documents are genuine, and their source excludes any suspicion to the contrary, then the Sohombnrg lino is proved worthless ss a baaie for any territorial plan, Gaifctad ConuspoaAenea, Tha despatch to tha Daily Chronicle from its special commissioner at Washington, giving' hitherto unpublished correspondence between the governments of went Britain and Venezuela during the COMB EARLY.

President Brewer ptooeeded to administer the oath office to the other commissioners, and then commissioner Alvey acted in a like capacity for the president. At 12i80 tha adjournment took place and the commission had been in session for just one hour. The four commissioners went back to secretary Glueys oflloe, and after telling him of what had been dim walked over to the White house to pay their respect to prerident Cleveland. They spent about fifteen minutes with Mr.

Cleveland and then went to luncheon. The four commissioner! remained with secretary Olney for half an hour disoueeing routine mutton pertaining to their organisation. Mr. Olney will not in any way participate in the work of tlie commission, and when the oommiteioners emerged from hie office into the diplomntio reception room he remained behind. Each member of tiie tribunal, with the exception of Prof.

White, reoeived bis formal oertitioate of appointment from the president to-day. The form of tha credential is as follows To tlie Hon. David J. Brewer: Yon are hereby appointed a member of the commission to investigate and report upon the true location el the divisfonallino between the territory of the republio of Venesuela and that of British Guiana. It is expected that the commission will avail itself of ell possible information, will apply to the matter ell pertinent raise of municipal aud international tlaw, and will make a report to the president of their conclusions together with the evidence and documents submitted to, and considered by them, with ae little delay as is compatible with the thorough and impartial consideration of the subject to ba dealt with.

Who lehombursk Was. Robert Herman Schomburgk, the author of the line between Venezuela and British Guiana was a Prussian scientist who wandered a great donl over the world and lived almost everywhere. He was born in 1804, and died in 1863. In hie youth he was a clerk in a mercantile house in New York, and in that capacity drifted to South America, and finally settled in the Island of Barbados.

Ha found it in tho lagoons along the banka of tho the lily wen so large and covered so much water that the light-footed Indiana used to stand open them. Schomburgk returned to Georgetown, British Gniana, and there wrote a book which was published in German by his brother in 184a This by a rough map iff the coufitry he pW. About the earns time he wrote a pamphlet in English upon its natural festered and nave bis theory as to when the Tine between Guiana boundary Tina between Guiana and Ve suela ought to bo drawn. It wue an arbi-1 tnuy lino, traced upon a map, without reference to tho territory over which Holland hud claimed jurisdiction, or the terms of the treaties by which she transferred it to Great Britain.
