neg. The Philadelphia Press has this :
A note received at this office last night
says :
" The other papers publiehthe annexed Hat with
copy of notice of meeting for organization as sent
to each member by to-night'z mail, as an item of
news. We expect your paper to do as much."
The expectation is in vain. The "an
nexed list" is a roll of the Republican
State Central Committee, with the post
office address of each member. As a com
pliment to these gentlemen we might print
it, but as an "item of news," never.
The Press is right. There is a great deal
too much "dead head" advertising done
by the political press. The editor has
the same right to expect pay for his
wares as do those who print tickets, paint
banners, furnish music, etc. It is his
stock in trade.—Pittsburgh Post.
GEN. HARRY WHITE,
The Republican State Central Commit
tee met in Harrisburg, on last Wednesday,
and many good Republicans wero led to
believe that some action would be taken
to make the ticket, nominated at the late
State Convention, more satisfactory to a
large portion of the Republican party,
but nothing was done, and it is pretty evi
dent that as long as that distinguished
bourbon, Russell Everett, controls the
Committee nothing will be done.
For the purpose of showing our readers
how Gen. Harry White's nomination for
Congressman-at Large is received, we copy
the following extracts :
" Gen. Harry White was nominated for two
positions, Congress.at-Large and Delegate-at-
Large to the Constitutional Contention. The con
vention should have known his unfitness for one
or perhaps both of these positions, but it did not,
and measuring its fitness for a nominating conven
tion by some of its insane acts, the people may con
gratulate themselves that he was not nominated for
Governor and Judge of the Supreme Court also.
He has not seen fit to make his choice of the good
things flung at him by the convention, but he can
not hold on to both, and the committee at the
meeting to-day should see that the State ticket is
made complete as speedily as possible. There is
no time far delay. Some good Republican should
be substituted for Mr. White for Congressman-at-
Large, unless the party is solicitous to lose one of
its Congressional delegation, and we are satisfied
that is not the case."—Chaniberobarg Repository.
" Gen. White is a lucky man. He is a State
Senator, and the late Republican State Conven
tion nominated him as ono of the two Congress
men-at-Large, and also as one of the fourteen
Delegates-at-Large to the State Constitutional
Convention. This is piling it on pretty thick.
Unless the General resigns from the Congressional
ticket it is to be feared that the Republicans will
lose one of the Congressmen at the next election.
There is a little too much 'White' on the State
ticket as it stands at present."—Reading Joornal.
"We agree with the Journai that 'White is a
lucky man,' but we feel his lock will destroy him
in the end. That he is a gentleman of extraordi
nary intelligence and of great importance,
is gen
or•lly admitted in the State. Having been set
&tide for Governor, it is marvelous that the State
Convention did not fill the measure of his ambition
by.heaping upon him the additional honor of •
Presidential elector."—Dclawars County Republi
can.

THE INDIRECT CLAIMS.
In the absence of any real cause of com
plaint against the government the apposi
tion press has united in an effort to embar
rass the Administration by prejUdicing the
public mind on the question of Indirect
Claims in the Alabama "Case." The de
mand for indirect losses, they say, should
never have been made; but, having been
included in the American "Case," its
abandonment will drive the President from
the White House, and cover his Adminis
tration with lasting disgrace. This is the
style of argument of the opposition. It is
certainly in very bad taste, as the sequel
will show. It will be time enough to judge
of and condemn or approve the acts of the
Administration after they have completed
their work and the result is officially before
the public. So far the facts will sustain
the assertion that great prudence, a strict
regard to integrity, and a noble magna
nimity have characterized the line of policy
pursued by the Administration from the
first conference of the Joint High Com
mission down to the present time. Let
us refresh our memories by a reference to
the leading points in the controversy.
After the Joint High Commission met,
and was organized, the American Commis
sioners informed the representatives of the
British Government, that claims would be
presented for direct and also for indirect
losses, growing out of the depredations of
the Alabama and other cruisers which had
been built, and in whole or part fitted
out, armed, equipped and manned in Eng
land or her Colonies, and proposed that
"the High Commission should agree upon
asum which should be paid by Great Britain
to the United States in satisfaction of ALL
the claims and the interest thereon:' The
British Commissioners replied that they
were not prepared to admit that Her Ma
jesty's Government had fai.ed to discharge
the duties imposed on her as a neutral, or
that she was justly liable to make good the
losses referred to. "But," they continued,
"Great Britain, for the sake of the main
tenance of friendly relations is willing to
adopt the principle of arbitration," and
they added, as the records show, "We now
repeat, on behalf of our Government, the
offer of ARBITRATION?' The offer, on
specified conditions, was accepted. There
was no objection made by the British Com
missioners to the presentation of any part
either of the direct or indirect claims.—
This part of the controversy was settled.
The Tribunal was to be governed in their
proceedings and decisions by certain rules,
agreed upon by the Joint High Commis
sioners, and embodied in the sixth article
of the Treaty. The first of these was that
"a neutral government is bound to use due
diligence to prevent the fitting out, arming
or equipping, within its jurisdiction, of
any vessel which it has reasonable ground
to believe is intended to cruise or carry on
war against a Power with which it is at
peace," &c. Second, "It must not permit
belligerents to mako use of its forts," &e.
A,nd third, 'To exercise due diligence in
its own ports or waters, and, as to all per
sons within its jurisdiction, to prevent any
violation of the foregoing obligations or
duties."
The Joint High Commission, with these
preliminaries completed, proceeded to draft
the Treaty. in its first Article we have
these words :
"Now in order to remove and adjust ALL com
plaints and claims on the part of the United States,
and to provide for the speedy settlement of such
claims, which are not admitted by Iler Britannic
Majesty's Government, the high contracting par
ties agree that ALL TUC SAID cLAius growing out
of acts committed by the aforesaid vessels, and
generally known as the Alabama Claims, shall he
referred to a Tribunal of Arbitration, to be com
posed of five arbitrators," ,ke.
If full and ample provision is not made
in this first article of the Treaty, read in
connection with the previous protocols, for
the presentation and adjudication of Indi
rect Claims, then Webster has failed to
render the true meaning of words in the
English language.
Now let it be remarked here, and dis
tinctly understood, that the Government
never did expect or desire a money consid
eration for anything beyond direct losses,
amounting in full to about $17,000,000.
This has been repeatedly stated by mem
bers of the Administration and in public
speeches in the United States Senate. The
desire was to establish a rule or principle,
so that if at any time in the future either
England or the United States should be at
war with another Power, the other, or neu
tral, should not permit acts that would lead
to direct or indirect damages without being
responsible for the same. This was the
motive for sending those claims before the
Geneva Ttibunal. At the same time that
there were sufficient grounds for making
the charge, even in a pecuniary point of
view, there can be no reasonable doubt.--
Even Lord (then Earl) Russell himself
admitted that aid and comfort had been
extended, under the eyes of his Govern
ment, to the Southern Confederacy. In
his speech, April 26, 1864, when ho was
Principal Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, he said :
"It so happens that in this conflict the Confed
erate States have no ports except those of the
Mersey and the Clyde, from which they fit out ships
to cruise against the Federale."
After this admission it will not be diffi
cult to decide bow far England should be
held responsible for our losses, direct and
indirect. Here again : In his speech in
Parliament, March 13, 1865, Mr. Bright
said :
'•I shall confine myself to that one vessel the
Alabama. She was built in this country; all her
munitions of war were from this country, almost
every man on board of her was a subjects of Her
Majesty. She sailed from one of our chief ports.
She is reported to have been built by a firm in
whom a member of this House was, and, Ipresume
is interested."
Mr. Cobden, in the Commons, May 13,
1864, warn the Government of the im
mense losses they were inflicting upon the
United States, in violation of international
law and neutrality obligations. He said :
"You have been carrying on hostilities from
these shores against the people of the United States,
and have been inflicting an amount of damage on
that country greater than would be produced by
many ordinary wars."
The American "case" was prepared and
printed in accordance with the provisions
of the first article of the Treaty. Copies
were forwarded to England and placed in
the hands of Mr. Gladstone and others.
For seven weeks after its receipt no ex
ception was taken to its contents. Near
the close of those weeks the British Par
liament was about to assemble, and Dis
raeli in searching for materials for argu
ments with which to annoy and embarrass
the Premier. fell upon the Indirect Claims,
and by We aitl" cir the public — press,
raised a storm about the head of Mr.
Gladstone which threatened the stability
of his Government, and the loss of his
position. Then England began to realize
the extent of the damage she bad caused
to the United States, of the consequences
of which she was warned by Bright, Cob
den, and other British statesmen. The
apparition of immense piles of bags of
gold being transported from her Treasury
vaults to Washington, loomed up in mag
nitude and amount, as some of their own
papers stated it "equal to the cost of the
Prussian and French war."
Poor Gladstone, in his haste to put him
self right before the country, delivered a
speech in which he denounced the "ease"
and its claims, and spoke disrespectfully of
the government from which it emanated.
He said :
"We don't admit that the language of the first
article, even if it were taken by itself, would bear
the construction which it has been endeavored to
attach to it. We contest that point, of course re
serving it to fall back on this appeal. A man must
be insane, a nation must be insane, to suppose that
we would admit impossible claims of this charac
ter in a peaceful arbitration, which, not even in
the last extremity of war, slot even in the Ibrrest
depths of misfortune, a people with a spark of
spirit, with a hundr edth part of the traditions and
courage of the people of this country would consent
at the point of death to admit. (Loud cheers.)
That is an argument, I grant, bounded upon prob
ability, founded upon assumption. It is a simple
demonstration of an absurdity, as we think it is to
be. It is a well known principle that you are now
to assume absolute infatuation, absolute insanity,
on the put of the negotiations, when there is a
rational construction which will exempt them from
that charge. Ido not know that I need trouble
the Rouse further, except by saying that that I
look forward with a sanguine hope se to the course
which the America), Government may take on this
matter."
Disraeli had accomplished his object.—
His success was so far complete; but to
further embarrass the Premier he gravely
informs him that the American Govern
ment cannot withdraw its claim. Ile said:
"Seven weeks had passed without their having
received the slightest intimation fir. m Her Majes
ty's Ministers. They had circulated their case
throughout the world. They had translated it into
every European language. It had been sent to
every Court and Cabinet; to every Sovereign and
every Minister. It teas impossible for the American
Gorernment to recede from their position, even if
they had believed it to be an erroneous one. And
then, to aggravate the difficulty, the Prime Minis
ter goes down to Parliament, declares that there is
only one interpretation to be placed on the Treaty,
(hear, hi 0.r,) and defies and attacks everybody who
believes it susceptible of another. Was there ever
such a combination of negligence and blundering?
(Hear, hear.) And now, gentlemen, what is about
to happen? All we know is that Her Majesty's
Ministers are doing everything in their power to
evade the cognizance and criticism of Parliament.
(Hear.) They have received an answer to their
"friendly communication," of which, I believe, it
has been ascertained that the American govera
ment adhere to their interpretation, and yet we
prolong the controversy."
On receipt of that "friendly communi
cation" front Her Majesty's Ministers, no
fault could have been found, or exception
taken, if the American Government had
respectfully withdrawn, from the obliga
tions of the Treaty and closed negotiations
upon the subjeot. Their own leading Lon
don journals admitted that fact, and with
alarm apprehended such a result. The
Loc o dou Daily News said :
"It was unquestionably open to the Federal
government to have treated, our protest against
the assumptions of the American Case ins manner
which would have placed a bar upon all further
negotiations. They might have accused us, with
a certain show of plausibility, of drawing from our
treaty engagements, and might have declined to
proceed with the execution of the compact."
A different policy was, however, pursued.
The Administration replied to the Lfriend
ly letter" in a friendly spirit, but declined
to recede from the terms and conditions of
the Treaty, and suggested that this new
difference or misunderstanding of the pro
visions of the Treaty might also with pro
priety be left to the Arbitration to decide.
England declined to accept this very rea
sonable proposition, and removed the threat
to withdraw from the Tribunal.
After further correspondence, and find
ing that England was firm in her decision
to withdraw, and by this course cause the
Treaty itself to be lost, our Minister to
England was authorized propose to the
British Government the construction of a
new artiole to the Treaty. This was not
accepted, but another proposition was hand
ed by Lord Granville to our Minister, and
by him was transmitted to Washington, to
the effect that "The President of the Uni
ted States, by and with the advice and con
sent of the Senate thereof, consents that
he will make no claim on the part of the
United States in respect of indirect losses
before the Tribunal of Arbitration at Ge
neva." This is a reversal of the policy
proposed to be established by the Ameri
can Government; but if England prefers
the rule as the basis of a principle by
which to be governed in the future, the
American Government can magnanimously
make the concession and waive the presen
tation of claims for which England by her
own Commissioners, mast fully provided
in the Treaty to which they affixed their
signatures and their seals. We say mag
nanimously, for the American Government
is master of ate situation and in a posi
tion either to persist in her claim going
before the Tribunal, or to throw up the
Treaty itself, present the British Minister
with his passports, declare war, and take
the British American Colonies as security
until the terms of the Treaty are fulfilled.
She has done neither of these things—has
preferred, in her strength, to waive her
rights in order to reach the end of a pro
tracted controversy and restore friendly
relations with Great Britain and her Amer
ican Colonies. The United States Govern
ment, as master of the situation, can afford
to be generous toward a foreign power, as
she was to Lee and Johnston when they
were compelled to acknowledge the weak
ness of their army, and instead of holding
England to her contract and exacting the
pound of flesh, she yields to the importu.
nity of her venerable ancestor, grants her
request, and bids her go in peace.
But while the United States Govern
ment might adopt this course with honer
and credit to itself, another policy may
with equal propriety be adopted. Eng
land's last proposal has with great pru
dence, been referred by the President to
the United States Senate. There the
whole subject of controversy is under re
view and debate. A decision will be ar
rived at after careful examination and ma
ture deliberation. The President and his
Cabinet will be governed by the result of
this congressional inquiry. Nothing will
be done in haste, and no final action will
be taken that will be inconsistent with the
interests of the people and the honor of
the nation.

THE DIFFERENCE.
jd Engliid, under a ruinous system of
free trade, the workingman rarely rises
above a perpetual struggle for existence,
and the prospect of an almshouse in old
age. In the United States under protec
tion, the workingman, if prudent, almost
invariably becomes the proprietor, alone or
jointly, of an establishment, and in the
end leaves his family a competence.
Take three illustrations, one from Wes
tern experience. another from the Middle
States, and the third from New England,
"The growth of woolen factories in the
West," says an observing writer in Wis.
consin, "has been unprecedented during
the last ten years of protection. Wisconsin
had fifteen woolen factories in 1860, while
in this group. of Western States there are
no less than six hundred." And note
"These factories are owned largely by men
of limited means, who hare worked their
way , from the position of common labor
ers." In England such a result is simply
impossible. The weekly receipts are in
sufficient to meet the expenses of a bare
existence, and the surplus dollar at the end
of the week is a thing unknown. Take
another illustration.
In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, there are
696 boiling and heating furnaces; 497
nail, tack, and spike machines; 13 railway
spike machines; 69 steam hammers, some
of them weighing 16,000 pounds; 195
engines, a snore of rolling mills, 7 pigiron
fUt:naces, 48 foundries, a dozen immense
steel works, each producing annually from
$500,000 to $1.500,000 worth of steel; 3
locomotive works, a number of rail facto
ries, employing 400 men ; about 75 glass
works, producing glass goods annually to
the value of $7,000,000; 8 white lead
factories; sheet and bolt copper works; 58
petroleum refineries; cotton mills, employ
ing 1,500 persons; woolen mills, and oth
er industries. The entire product of the
Pittsburgh industries amtounts to just about
$100,000,000 annually, four fifths of which
goes West, Ohio being the largest pur
chasing State. Now mark : James Par
ton,
after a carecul personal inspection of
these industries and inquiry as to the
ownership of these gigantic establish
ments, stated in an article on the
subject in the Atlantk Monthly, that
a hover portion of the proprietors of
to-day were the workingmen a few years
ago, many of whom are Scotch-Irish nat
uralized citizens. And be might have
added that many of those self-made met
are now millionaires. our third illn.tra
tion is taken, by way of variety, from the
old New England States.
Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massa
chusetts are hives of industry, particularly
manufacturing industry, their annual pro
ducts approaching $400,000,000. It is
stated by statistical writers that seventy
five per cent. of the present owners of
those manufactories started in life a few
years ago as practical mechanics at weekly
wages. They are now not only at the head
of many of those great as well as the
smaller manufacturing establishments, but
they are the owners of over fifty per rent.
of the capital in 'ested in all those indus
tries.
In these illustrations, which might be
extended almost without limit, we have a
fair illustration t,f the different results of
protection to home industries, and free
trade and low wages. Protection is the
workingman's sure road to competence,
and often wealth ; free track conducts him
in old age, if not before, "over the bill to
the poor house?'
FREE TEA AND COFFEE.
We published, some time ago, a speech
delivered before the Senate, by Sena
tor Scott, of this State, advocating the
abolition of duties on tea and coffee.
We considered it one of the strongest ar
guments made before that. body, and felt
at the time that it would have its effect
upon the members. Senator Scott's stand
ing among his fellow Senators is such as
gives his opinions an influence which few
others share to an equal extent. His ab
solute freedom from all connection with .
rings or factions., added to his well known
and recognized ability as a statesman, and
his high toned moral standing as a man,
all conspire to give him an influence above
that ordinarily enjoyed by persons in his
position, and in congratulating ourselves
upon having so strong a representative,
we are glad to hr.ve a practical illustration
at hand, in the abolition of the lax on tea
and coffee. From the first of July will
date the era of free tea and coffee. Upon
that date all duty upon these luxuries of
the poor man ceases. and the toiling mil
lions, all over the land, will bless the man
who had the humanity to recognize their
wants, and ability to supply them. We
may properly regard Senator Scott as the
special champion of this measure, and
honored instrument of its accomplishment
We may add that the people will not be
slow to recognize the benefit secured, or
to show their appreciation of the man when
ever opportunity offers. We publish be
low an article front the Philadelphia Bul
letin cf May 2d, which fully accords with
our sentiments :
Protection to American Industry being one of
the cardinal doctrines of thin Community and of
this paper, we cannot but rejoice that instead of
reducing the duties on iron, oo al, salt and a hun
dred other articles, the production or which sup
ports millions of our people, Congress has simply
abolished those on tea and coffee. The fallacies
and the insincerity of the advocates of Free Trade
are shown by the tact that the only opposition to
the bill just enacted came from them. it received
the support of all protectionists in Congress. And
hero we may as well let the people of Pennsylvania
know that the passage of the bill was largely ow
ing to the earnest and judicious exertions of one
of their Senators, Hon. John Scott. Those who
watched the progress of it in that body know
that it would have failed, or been postponed per
haps until next cession, but forSenatorScott's per
sistent exertions. He watched all the contrivan
ces of its opponents, and was prompt and skillful
in frustrating them. To him more than any other
individual member of Congress are the people of
the United States under obligations for the re
moval of the tax on their tea and coffee.—lfead

he says:
" Somerset has been virtually destroyed. The
published acoonnts are not exagerated. They scarce

as that which befell Chicago or Chambersburg.
There is suffering and need of immediate relief.
We have been for a long time closely related to

TILE INDIRECT CLAIMS CONTROVERSY.
Important developments have been made
during the week in the controversy be
tween England and the United States on
the question of Indirect Claims. Presi
dent Grant received a proposal, by tele
graph, (May 10,) from the British Gov
eminent, of which the following is a copy :
DISPATCH FROM GEN. SMIRCH
Lord Granville, a few moments since,
submitted to me in person the following
draft of an article which, if the Govern
ment of the United States think fit to
adopt, will be accepted by her Majesty's
Government. I made no comment on it,
but said I would telegraph to you immedi
ately.:
Whereas the Government of her Brit
annic Majesty has contended, in recent
correspondence with the Government of
the United States, as follows, viz : That
such indirect claims as those for the na
tional losses, stated in the case presented
on the part of the Government of the
United States, to the Tribunial of Arbitra.
tiston at Geneva, to have been sustained by
the loss in the transfer of the American
commercial marine to the British flag, the
enhanced payments of insurance. the pro
longation of the war, and the addition of a
large sum to the cost of the war and the
suppression of the rebellion, firstly, were
not included in the Treaty of Washington,
and further and secondly, should not be
admitted in principle as growing out of the
acts committed by particular vessels alledg
ed to have been enabled to commit depre
dations on the shipping of a belligerent,
by reason dutch want of due diligence in
the performance of the neutral obligations
as that which is imputed by the United
States to Great Britain ; and.
Whereas the President of the United
States, while adhering to his contention
that the said claims were included in the
Treaty, adopts for the future the principle
contained in the second of the said conten
tions as far as to declare that, it will here
after guide the conduct of the Government
of the United States, and the two coun
tries arc therefore, agreed in this respect..
In consideration thereof, the President
of the United States, by and with the ad
vice and consent of the Senate thereof,
consent that he will make no claim on the
part of the United States in respect of in
direct losses as aforesaid before the Tribu
nal of Arbitration at Geneva.

On receipt of this proposition from the
British Government Gen. Grant called his
Cabinet together, and laid the dispatch be
fore them. After deliberation the Presi
dent and Cabinet decided to lay the com
munication, together with the entire cor
respondence upon the subject, before the
Senate. The following is.
THE PRESIDENT'S SPECIAL MESSAGE TO
TUE SENATE.
To the Senate of the United States :
I transmit herewith the correspondence which
hes recently taken place respectingthe divisions of
opinion which have arisen between the Govern
ment and that of Great Britain with regard to the
powers of the Tribunal of Arbitration created un
der the Treaty signed at Washington, May 8, 1871.
I respectfully invite the attention of the Senate to
the proposed article submitted by the British Gov
ernment with the object of removing thedifferences
which seem to threaten the prosecution of the ar
bitration, and request an expression by the Senate
of their disposition in regard to advising and con
senting to the formal adoption of an article such
as is proposed by the British Government. The
Senate is aware that the consultation with that
body in advance of entering into agreements with
foreign States has many precedents. In the early
days of the Republic, General Washington repeat
edly asked their advice upon pending questions
with such powers. The most important precedent
is that of the Oregon Boundary Treaty in 1846.
The importance of the results hanging upon the
present state of the Treaty with Great Britain
leads me to follow these former precedents, and to
desire the counsel of the Senate in advance of
agreeing to the proposition of Gref.. Britain.
U. S. GRANT.
WASHINGTON, May 13, 1572.
THE CORRESPONDENCE.
The correspondence betwen the two gov
ernments, consisting of mail dispatches
and telegrams, would fill two pages of the
JOURNAL in small type.
In the first dispatch of Lord Granville
to Mr. Schenck, dated February 3, 1872,
he passes over minor matters and at once
proceeds to notice what he terms "certain
claims of an enormous and indefinite amount
which appear to have been put forward as
matters to be referred to arbitration,"
meaning the claim fur consequential or in
direct damages. Earl Granville argues
that this claim was not anticipated and
would not be admitted. Letter two is a
more formal one from Mr. Schenck to
Lord Granville, stating that Graaville's
communication had been forwarded to
Washington. Then follows a letter from
Mr. Fish to Mr. Schenck, with another
addressed and to be delivered to Lord
Granville. In this letter of Mr. Fish to
Lard Granville the question of agreeing to
the payment of a gross sum to cover all
the claims, and without the action of a
third party, is referred to. Mr. Fish
courteously but firmly states that the Pres
dent would not have consented to a com
mission to make a treaty if he had not un
derstood that all claims of whatever kind
were to be the subject of settlement, that
he was willing to abide by the decision of
the arbitrators, whether any of the claims
should be admitted or rejected, and that
the President regretted the action of the
British government in objecting to such a
settlement. Throughout it is apparent
that our government did not expect to get
the "enormous" damages which Lord Gran
ville seemed to fear were expected, and
the object in submitting the claim for con
sequential damages was more with a view
of leaving nothing unsettled, and to show
what opinion had been held of the conduct
of England. All the despatches that fol
low, except the last one of the British gov
ernment with the proposition submitted to
the Senate, are only a reiteration of the
same points and arguments which have
been published heretofore. The despatch
of Lord Granville of the 20th of March is
very elaborate, anti is a tine specimen of
special pleading.
INDIRECT CLAIMS IN THE SENATE.
The message from the President, and
accompanying correspondence, was ordered
to be printed, and copies are now in the
hands of the members. The New York
Herald correspondent, disregarding the in
junction of secrecy obtained a copy, by
some means unknown, and telegraphed the
entire correspondence to New York Herald,
in which it was published, occupying three
pages, ou the following morning. It is
now before the public, and will be closely
examined by the people. It is not safe to
predict the decision of the Senate upon the
subject under controversay. There will be
no hasty action. England evidently is at
fault. The Treaty is clear upon the right
to lay the claims for indirect damages be
fore the Tribunal at Geneva for adjudica
tion. The United States expects an award
for direct damages, but does not expect a
dollar for indirect losses. The object of
securing a reclgnition of these claims is to
establish the principle of responsibility
by which both of' the Powers to the con
tract shall be held, under similar circum
stances, in the future. But England ap
pears to be terribly alarmed that an
award of an immense amount will be made
by the tribunal, and begs that the claim
for indirect damages may not be pressed
as a part of the "Case" to be considered
by the Arbitrators. The question now be
fore the Senate is mainly on this point of
waiving the Indirect Claim. It may be
done as a magnanimous concession, with
out detriment to the national prestige; or,
the Senate may advise a different policy.
The President has wisely referred the
question to them, as the peoples' represen
tatives, and he will be governed by their
decision and advice. This is right. It is
the very best course to pursue, and there
can be no doubt that when the controversy
reaches a final adjustment, it will be in
full accordance with the intelligent public
sentiment. N. 11. P.
Miscellaneous Items,
T. Buchanan [taad died in New York city
on Saturday night last, and was buried in
Philadelphia on Tuesday.
The Italian Government has sent a commu
niration to the government of Prince Chailts,
of Roumania, protesting against the persecu
tion and oppression of the Jews in the coun
try.
New Hampshire and Minnesota have both
declared for the nomination of Gen. Grant. It
is wonderful how persistently the people rally
to his support notwithstanding the Cincinnati
convention.
On the 6th inst., Mr. Poland, a member of
the House, introduced an amendment to the
Constitution, prohibiting the election to the
Presidency, of a Senator, Representative, or a
supreme Judge.
Governor Hoffman has vetoed the act rela
ting to the local government of the city of
New York, which was framed by the Commit
tee of Seventy and by the Legislature during
the first part of this month.
A body of Curlists, which had been organ
ized in Portugal, and was about to enter Spain
with hostile intent, was met on the frontier
by a detachment of Serrano's doughty troops,
beaten and driven back into Portugal.
In San Francisco, a few days ago, a little
girl cat an orange which she had picked up in
the street, and died in agony a short time
after. The evidence at tue inquest showed
that the fruit was impregnated with strych
nine.
The following epitaph is to be put on Has
zini's tomb: "Tribute of homage to Guiseppe
Mazzini. His body to Genoa, his name to the
centuries, his soul to humanity." Garibaldi
is honorary president of the monument coin.
mittee.
The Senate Committee on Patents consid
ered the question of the extenson of the
Wheeler & Wi.son Lewing machine patent and
decided to act finally on it at the next meet
ing. It is believed the committee will decide
against the extension.
The production of Anthracite is Pennsyl
vania last year was 17,6d5,401 tons, from 437
collerics ; and in Great Britain in 1870 the
production of coal was 110,431,192 tons, from
2,851 colleries, so that our average was great
er than that in Britain.
An obscure individual by the name of Mc-
CLOSE is reported as authority for the state
ment that Minister CURTIN forwarded his res
ignation "fully three months ago." If this be
true there must be something wrong with the
mails between St. Petersburg sun Washington.
At the instance of Hon. G. Meyers, Secreta
ry Robeson has had the examination of
Island made with a view to asking for au ad
ditional appropriation to carry on the work,
and he will accordingly send to Cu , : House a
request for half a million of dollars, and ask
the committee to insert in it the Omnibus bill.
Tcnnie C. Claflin—one of the Victoria
Woodhull Blood firm—has made proposals to
the Ninth (N. Regiment to elect her Colonel
of the regiment vice James Fisk, jr., deceased.
She is iu dead earnest, and protesses to know
at least as much about military matters as
Greeley does about farming.
The court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia,
has decided the local option law constitutional.
The case came up on mandamus to compel the
issuing of a license which was refused by the
city authorities because the house was within
Germantown, where the people lied decided
against license being granted.
The Nebraska Repub. icon State Convention at
Lincoln, adopted resolutions indorsing the ad-
ministration ; favoring an admendment of the
Constitution providing for the election of
Senators, postmasters, and other Federal offi
cers directly by the people, and favoring the
delication of the public lands to homestead
and pre-emption purposes.
Lieut. Gen Sheridan has forwarded to the
War Department particulars of the pursuit of
a party of Illinneconjie Indians, who stole
horses from McPherson Station on the Union
Pacific Railroad. Tony were overtaken by
Capt. Meinhold's company of the 3d Cavalry,
at the Loop Fork. Three of the Indians were
killed, and some of the horses recovered.
The claim of the United States against
Great Britain as nled by the American Com
missioners before the Geneva Conference es
timates the entire direct damages resulting
from depredations on the American commerce
and shipping, by Confederate cruisers fitted
out in British ports, at $.9,000,000, inclusive
of $6,000,000 claimed. of damages by the Shen
andoah.
The House, by a very larg3 majority, de
feated General Butler's favorite manner of
keeping alive the suspension of the habeas
corpus act by taking a recess till November
next, the present act expiring with this session
of Congress ; and the indications are that
there will be enough hostility to it in the
House to prevent its re-enactment this session.
Carl Schurz was not popular in the army
as a military commander. The War Depart
ment sent him to Shermen when that great
commander was "marching through Georgia."
Sherman sent him to Slocum, then command
ing the left wing of the army. Slocum who
was every inch a soldier, had no use for Carl,
and so stated, at the same time asking what
he should do with him. "Confound him!
Drown him 1" returned "Old Tecumseh."
