From Our Own CorrepcndnU 1 '
London, May' 1(5, 1871.
Thanks to the enterprise of the Times' corre
epondent at Philadelphia, we hare got the full
text of the Treaty of Washington before us, and
public opinion is of course very busy upon it.
The general feeling is, I think, one of eatisfae
tlon and relief, for we all feel that we hare a
right to look you confidently in the face and
claim to have proved the sincerity of our desire
to sacrifice anything, short of national honor,
for the sake of lasting amity. Surely, tho ques
tion has reached Its dying day at last. Nine
years have passed away since the unfortunate
escape of the Alabama brought it into being,
and now we heave a deep t Igh of relief (not
regret) at the prospect of relegating Ik forever
to the mummy-chamber of history. We gladly
notice that, on your 6ide, that position which no
Englishman would ever have conceded that the
Queen's proclamation of neutrality was a griev
anceis now tacitly abandoned, and that there
is nothing in the treaty that alleges or even
hints that we have any atonement to make be
yond euch as may be found to be due in respect
of damage actually done by tho Alabama and
her consorts. More substantial proof of the
'friendly eplrit" in which this country has ap
proached this settlement could hardly have been
given than her consent to waive the advantages
of her strictly legal position in the question ef
liability, and to be judged by a retrospective
application of new rules of international law.
Kule 1 bears obvious marks of having been ex
pressly framed to convict us In the mat
ter of the Alabama, but it may still be
doubted how far the arbitrators will find ns
guilty when they come to apply those perhaps
intentionally vague expressions "due diligence,'
"reasonable grounds for belief," "(vessels) in
tended to cruise," to actual circumstances. It
may not be difficult to see on which side the
balance of concession lie, but we are not dis
posed to be too curious to look. Enough for
ns if we have convinced you of our national
good-will, and by this treaty secured a more
cordial understanding between the two great
branches of the Anglo-Saxon family.
This morning we learn by cable that there is
every probability of the treaty being ratified by
the Senate, and little doubt is felt here that
Parliament will do the same, though a threaten
ing cloud haj, I grieve to Eay, appeared in the
atmosphere of the House of Lords, where last
night Lord Russell gave notice that, on Monday
next, he will more an address to her Majesty
praying that no convention for the settlement of I
he Alabama claims may be ratified which con
tains conditions contrary to the law of nations
and the British municipal law in force at the
date of the alleged depredations. But the treaty
will, if the steamer bearing it arrives in due
course, have been ventilated in the Commons
before Monday comes, to we may hope this
storm-cloud will be dissipated ere it bursts. '
There was something both new and true, to
our thinking, in Lord Bedesdale's remarks on
the same hackneyed question a few nights back,
lias any one observed, he asked, now that
President Grant's Government represents all the
States alike, that the South is in effect asking
damages for injuries which the South itself
committed ? When the principal has been for
given, are not claims against the agent ipso facto
barred? Is not this a case of A allowing his
partner to proceed against A's own agent ?
But enough of this grave subject, absorbing
though it Is just now. One of the novelties f
the London International Exhibition, which has
by this time been found to be a worthily popular
and attractive resort, is an international fan
competition. The competition was confined to
ladies under the age of five and twenty, and as
many as 120 fan mounts, beautiful and artistic
workings in and on such diverse materials as
eilk, vtllum, ivory, lace, woods, paper, and
peacocks' feathers, were sent in. Princess
Louise, Marchioness of Lorne, has carried off
the third prize, a 4 10 note(0, with an admirably
executed "Skating Scene." Iler art faculties
are indeed of an exceptionally high order, and
they have been carefully and thoroughly trained,
as all will allow who saw the bust of the Queen
which she exhibited at the Royal Academy a
couple of summers back.
Mentioning the Royal Academy, I cannot re
frain from noting en passant that after accept
ing the many hundreds of pictures which throng
the walls of its halfscore galleries, it this year
rejected no less than two thousand five hun
dred! One would hardly have believed that
even in crowded London so many luckless
wights were struggling with brush and palette
for a livelihood. Manchester millionaires must
all have their picture-galleries nowadays, and
their long and not discriminating purses are
answerable for a great deal of the trash upon
which good oil colors are wasted.
Two causes celebres at Westminster have
formed an item in every public print and most
private conversations of these last few days.
The Crown has been prosecutingseveral young
men, among whom Boulton and Park are the
prominent names, on a very serious but unmen
tionable charge, of which they were last night,
much to the relief of the public, acquitted;
while In the Common' Pleas Sir William Bovill
and a special jury are busy with the so-called
Tlchborne claim, which involves an ancient
baronetcy and a rent-roll of A'24,000 a year.
Seldom, If ever, has so Interesting and romantic
a story been laid before a British jury. Seven
teen years ago the young officer of
carbineers wbo, if the present claim
ant be really he, Is now Sir Roger Tichborne,
was shipwrecked lu the Southern Seas, and be
lieved by all but his mother to be lost. Ten
years later, the mother's repeated advertise
ments produced the present claimant from the
Jush in Australia; he came to England, was re
cognized by the mother as her son, recognized,
too, by several former brother-officers, and by the
family lawyer and banker, and now seeks to
oust the present possessors from the Tichborne
title and estates. His story is that an American
ve36el picked him up and carried him to Mel
bourne, where poverty drove him into low life
and obscurity, till by chance the mother's ad
vertisements met his eye. His opponents flatly
deny his identity with the person be professes to
be, declare bim to be a rauk impostor, and as
sert that his bolu ttory is trumped up la con
spiracy with an old colored servant of the
family (now in bis Interest"), whom they accuse
of having furuiohed hint w ith alt the tau-ily his
tory and other facts on which bis eUttmienn
hong. There are two hutdred witnesses to be
xamined, so you may form some Idea of tbe
time the trial Is likely to occupy, and the money
it is cof ting daily. In tbe Boulton and Park
case seventeen counsel were engage 1, of whom
five were present, and two past, members of the
House of Commons.
A remarkable sensation has been produced by
a paper In Llackwod styled "The Battle of
Dorking." The author, taking the imaginary
position of a twentieth-century historian, nar
rates with alarmingly vivid verisimilitude an
invasion of England by an enemy of the latest
Prussian type, who, after beating our channel
fleet, lands, routs our forces, and overruns the
island. It is a sufficiently opportune warning
of whnt may one day happen If we don't wake
up ts the real state of our national defenses.
You should read tho thoughtful and sugges
tive preface which Tom Hughes has written for
Mr. l'hilpot's new "Guide Book to the Canadian
Dominion." He is of opinion that your interests
no less than hers wonld best served by Canada's
independence, but owns that if she has not
strength or character to stand alone, annexation
is probably the best thing that can happen to
Eurdett Coutts, the wealthy and benefit
cent, has accepted a peerage, and will hence
forward be the Baroness Burdett Coutts.
