as your counsel in the impending impeachment,
I felt an embarrassment, growing out of my
official position. , I then said that, although there
was no legal incompatibility between my acting as
your counsel in my Individual capacity and hold

yet, as the duties of counsel in such a ease
must engross all my time during its progress,
my attention would necessarily be withdrawn for
an indefinite period from the discharge of official
duties. When,after further consideration, I con
tinued to feel the force of the objection, and said
to you that I could not consent to hold any office
and at the same time engage in your defence,
you were further pleased, in View of the alter

CITY COUNCILS
Both branches of City Councils met yesterday after
noon.
Select Branch.
Mr. Stokley, President, in the chair.
A message was received from his Honor the Mayor,
submitting the names of sundry persons for confirma
tion. as police officers. The nominations were
concurred in.
A number of petitions were received and read from
various quarters of the city and were referred.
A resolution instructing the Commissioner of Mar
kets to rent' the Hunting Park to the highest bidder,
was
A petition wiling for the division •of the Fifth
Precinct of the Twenty-sixth Ward, was referred to
the Committee on Pol.ce.
Mr. Jones submitted a report from the Committee
on Law, containing an ordinance for the publication
of the new City Dijest, by Messrs. King & Baird.
.111 r. Ring offered a substitute that the publication
be by Messrs. E. C. Markley & Son. On motion; both
ordinances were recommitted.
The Committee on Law also reported a resolution
that the City Solicitor be directed to enter suit against
the Germantown Passenger Railway Company for salt
ing their tracks.
Mr. Hopkins did not like to force a multiplicity of
cases upon the City Solicitor. He opposed such de
cisive action as that of immediately entering suit
against this cornnany.
Mr. King said that this road had violated the ordi
nance.
The company did not deny the faot of their salt
ing the track. but they simply dented the authority of
Councils to prohibit them from doing so. The City
Solicitor should at once enforce the ordinance of
Councils—it is his duty—and we should not be stayed
in prosecuting such offending corporations, by the
fear that the multiplicity of cases would engross all
the time of the Solicitor and the Courts. The speaker
believed that no hypocrisy should he shown in this
matter; either the ordinance should be enforced or
repealed.
Mr. Franciscus hoped that the resolution would not
ho referred. Be held it to he important that Councils
should learn whether they had control of the turn
pikes or corporations within the city Waite.
Mr. Kamerly wanted to know what harm there could
be in referring this to the City Solicitor for his opin
ion. A week's delay would certainly not seriously in.
terfere with the interests of Philadelphia, and a clear
opinion should first be received. and it undoubtedly
would be better for ultimate legislation to have full
information.
Mr. Hopkins did not wish to shield any of those
corporations; but since they had received a decision
from the Supreme Court with reference to the rights
of these roads, we should not hurriedly take cases
into court which might probably in the end invalidate
this decision, unless Councils were perfectly wetl•in
formed as to the justice of their cause.
The motion to refer to the City Solicitor was car
ried. ,
Mr. Kersey submitted a report from the Committee
on Defense and Protection, asking that the arms of
the city be Issued to all legally organized militia com
panies, upon giving ample security.
Mr. King toped that the resolution would pass.
..These arms were of no use to the City of. Philadelphia,
and they would be much better kept by these com
panies than they would be under their present control,
without wishing to disparage the latter. Volunteers
would at all times take especial pride in keeping their
muskets In good condition. These arms are wanted
by ambitions young men who bad just as high mili
tary aspirations as the gentleman from the Twenty
st (Mr. Jones), who opposed the resolution. More
than this, Councils will be giving to those men who
manifested their bravery in the late war, and who now,
without arms of their own, wished to keep up their
military organizations.
Mr. Kersey remarked that six companies were with
out accoutrements, and to fully equip them KID stand
of arms would be required.
A motion to refer was carried.
Colonel Page offered a resolution Instructing the
Committee on Railroads to inquire into and report
noon the propriety and exp?dlency of causing a re
duction of the passenger fares on the city railroads.
Referred.
Mr. Daffy offered a resolution instructing the Coin
mittee on Police to inquire into the feasibility and to
consider the propriety of establishing a telegraph
line, in connection with the fire alarm telegraph, for
the transmission of private messages within the city
limits, thus making it a source of revenue to the city.
Referred.
The following Mlle from Common Council were con
One asking that the Monroe Grammer School build

office and police station. Referred.
One appropriating 31,000 to the Shinier Hose and
Steam Fire Engine, for damages susmined to their
horses by falling into a hole at Second and Moore
streets. Passed.
The Chamber then went Into Committee of the
Whole, upon the consideration of the appropriation
bill to the Department of Highways. A long debate
ensued, and the bill finally passed, with amendments.
Adjourned.
Common Branch.
At 3 o'clock President Mercer called the Chamber to
order.
An invitation to attend a drill of Company A, Phila
delphia Fire Zouaves, was accepted.

From the Committee on Finance Mr. Potter reported
a resolution asking for the discharge of the committee

increase of teachers' 'salaries. Plumed. ,
On motion of Mr. hiyeni, Chairman of the Commit
tee on Police, Mr. was allowed to erect a
bulletin board in front of his place of business.

and Trusts, reported the "badge ordinance."
The ordinance; in its first and second sections, pro
vides for a badge made of bronze metal, of oval
shape, with a border running round the edge repre
senting a section of hose. Inside this, and parallel to

third section orders that each badge holder (that hi,

whole ordinance was referred to the Committee on
Law, with instructions to report next Thursday.

The Debate in the House of Commons
on the Alabama Claims Continued.
Lon Don, March 12.--Mr. W. B. Forster could not
conceive anything more calculated to conciliate the
two countries than the concluding remarks of the
noble Lord, and although he objected in some slight
degree to the course which the noble Lord had taken
with regard to the negotiations; though he believed
that he had been most anxious to bring then to a
favorable conclusion, and that there was really less
difference between himself and the American govern
relent than the noble Lord perhaps supposed, there
was one part of the motion of his honorable.
friend, the member for Reading, which was
couched in strong terms and hardly borne
out by the speech of the noble Lord as to
the failure of the negotiations with the United
States government beyond the immediate point at
issue. lie should very much regret the fact of any
such failure, for this had been the first serious prin
ciple of arbitration, which, if acted upon in this case,
would, doubt ess, be extended to disputes of still
greater importance. [Hear, hear.] With regard to
this question of arbitration it was but duo to the
noble Lord to remember the difficulties of his posi
tion. Originally, when Mr. Seward offered to
arbitrate, the war was still proceeding, and
it was for the interests of the Ameri
can government that the questions should be
referred, but when in 1867 the noble Lord made a sim
ilar offer, the war had ceased, - and it was for our in
terest to terminate the contrnversy. But the posi
tion of the American government had changed.
They fell back from their position of advocates of
belligerent rights to their old standpoint of a great
neutral power, and advocates accordingly -of the
privileges of neutrals. Hence the noble Lord was now
placed in the position of making an offer in
accordance with-our own-interests, which the- British
government had refrisedWhen made by the Americans
in accordance with their interests at the Moment, He
did not for a moment syinpathlze with the complaint
of the American government in what they called our
premature recognition of the belligerent rights of the
Confederates, but he did not think the
ground now broken by that government
was the one stated by the noble
Lord. He did not believe they expected anything
so absurd as that. He should state there was no civil
war raging at the time of the recognition. The
American government did not allege that tnere was no
civil war raging at that time. What they did allege was
that there was do war raging at sea. They said it
was not your business to act upon assump
tion of what might take: place '
but you
did so by proclaiming your neutrality in a war which
had not then begun, and which, for ought yon knew,
never might have begun. He thought that was an
unsound opinion, but it was one held by a man in
America of very great intelligence He might have
observed thatthough Mr. Adams had protested against
the recognition, and though Mr. Seward had conse
quently referred to the matter the first official dispatch
on the subject from the American government, writ
ten in April, 1865. In that dispatch, it
was stated that the dispute between the
countries had its origin by this country
having acknowledged the Confederates as belligerents
on the sea, before they had a single vessel of their own.
He thought there were good reasons for believing that
the American goven meet were mistaken in the po
sition they took. He was not ashamed to cot:dress
that during the struggles he was partizan. In comm.
quence of his views on the slavery question, on the 9th
of May, 1801, be put a question to the goyernment on
the subject, and in reply the late Sir G. C. Lewis
stated that the proclamation would be issued. Cer
tainly, at that time, the issuing of the proclamation
appeared to himself and other friends of the
North as not an unfriendly act on the part of
our Executive towards the government of the United
States. [Hear, hear.] Therefore ho could not
agree in the opinion which Mr. Seward had formed of
the proceedings, but as the point was one which
warmly interested the North betore the publication of
the Queen's proclamation, he had heard that
letters of marque were about to be issued
in • this country by Mr. Davis. acting for the
Confederates, and' he had been anxious to as
certain the light in which British vessels sailing under
said letters would be regarded, Ile had been inform
ed that the crews of said vessels would be looked
upon as pirates, and he believed there was no doubt
that would have been-the ease—forty—years—ago—on -
which a difference or opinion might exist. He
t homAt. the:.noble. LOlll,lllll _lieeretters—of - ,tfret--leye
`l7tireign Affairs, expected too much of Mr. Seward in
his dispatch of November 29, 1867. Mr. Seward said
the United States government was distinctly
informed by . Lord Stanley that they mast
altogether waive their conviction that the proclamation
was not justified. He distinctly understood Mr. Sew
ard to complain that as a preliminary to an arbitra
tion on the Alabama claims the noble Lord, Secretary
of Foreign Affairs, required of him to waive his con
viction that a proclamation was premature and con
trary to international law. In effect the noble Lord
said to Mr. Seward, "I will notrefer the other matters
• to arbitration, but you acknowledgeyourself wrong on
the grounds that you have constantly taken. to
the proclamation not having been premature 'and
contrary to international law.'
Lord Stanley—l did not require that. I only said I
oected to have that question before the arbitrator.
[Hear, hear.]
Zdr. W. E. Forster would infer from the noble
Lord's own dispatch that he went further than that,
and he believed that Mr. Seward had arrived at the
same conclusion. Again, as to not referring the fume-
Son to arbitration; while he thought we had the clear
est ease on the pont itself, he could not see why we
should object to make that case before an arbitration.
There might be an objection to such a course if -arbi
trhlion was merely meant to be a mode of making
confession where we knew we were wrong,
but he believed that we, parties to the treaty
of Paris, intended that arbitration should
in future be regarded as a = means of
deciding disputes between two nations by the inter
vention of a third party without war or threat*, of war.
In that line be trusted arbitration would henceforth
be regarded, and, therefore, he could not see that the
fact of our thinking ourselves right was any reason
why we should decline arbitration as between our
selves and another nation, also interested in the mat
ter; but, taking the opposite view, however, Mr.
Seward did not ask for so , much.. He thought Mr.
Seward's last dispatch admitted of a different
interpretation from that which might nat
urally be given to , his first dis
patch. He appeared to require there ehould he
Arbitration on the question of the prochimation ' as
well as that of thecialms• against the Alabama. Bat
he thought that the noble Lord's arguments on the sub.
ject of recognition must have had their effect on Mr.
Seward. Inakie4ast dispatch he-either :changed his
ground, or defined it so as to admit of a different In
terpretation being given to his demand from that
which the wording of his first dispatch
Teemed to require. In his last dispatch
be only claimed to make use of his opin
ion on the recognition as bearing on the case
of the vessel.: His impression was that if the
noble Lord had replied to the effect that although we
could not for a moment think of referring the ques
'Hon of our sovereign power to recognize the Con
federate States, and that we did not think ouch re
cognition had anything to do with thedeparture of
the Alabama, yet Mr. Seward might state his opinion
on the subject as an argument to be
taken into consideration
I although, in our judgment,
it was not a sound one. fhe bad made such a reply,
them could be but little doubt that the representative
of the United States, :at •• the arbitration,
would haver felt that Mr. Seward's • argument
was an unsound one, and in that event
we should have beard no more about it. But as
Mr. .Seward stood committed to his opinion, it was
hardly possible that he would abandon it at the bid-
ding of the noble Lord. After all this was only a hitch,
and be believed some mode of surrounding the dn
.. catty might be devised. Everybody in En.
• gland wished •to have the difficulty ami
cably arranged, as did every party In the
United States with exception of Pentane. The
noble Lord was himself most anxious to settle, and it
his suppositions were correct that all the United
States government wanted was to maim use of certain
arguments, he hoped the noble Lord would not allow
the negotiations tb break off on that ground, but
- would - reserVe - to - littlitielf - the r ght - of-disrayving
those arguments. We are also to consider whether
this matter could be settled otherwise than by arbi
tration. [Hear, hear.]
He thought flat it a statesman of high position
were sent to America with power from the noble
Lord, the matters in dispute might be arranged. Of
coureelt was not for him to point out thecxact mode
in which this was to be done, but he trusted the noble

The Moose of Commons.
LOsoorr, March 12--Midnight.--In the House of
Commons to-night, Mr. Gregory inquired what ground
the government intended to take in regard to the use
of mixed juries for the trial of foreigners in English
courts.
The Attorney-General replied that the government
bad not proposed to interior° with the decision of the
judges on that point.
Lord Stanley made an explanation as to the present
state of the controversy with Spain concerning the
TornadoCßEC. He, said the last step taken by England
was to demand the release of MacPherson.
Earl Mayo, Chief Secretary for Ireland, said he
would submit to the consideration of the House a
plan for a new Irish university, the officers of which
were to be named by the Catholics, but whose
privileges were not to be confined exclusively to
Catholics.
The House then went into committee and resumed
the debate on the grievances of Ireland.
Mr. Horsman, member for Stroud, said the ministers
had promised a reform in Ireland. Their reform
proved to be only a commission of inquiry, and a new
university. More than this was needed to conciliate
Ireland. He deprecated the creation of a new col
legiate of the character described by the Chief Secre
tary for Ireland as likely to foment sect bitter
ness and anger. The Laity were satisfied
with the present system of national schools He
declared that no ;ministerial statement had ever
caused him so much pain. A great opportunity was
offered to conciliate Ireland, which should no longer
be ruled by English laws, customs and prejudices, but
according to the wishes of the Irish people.
Mr. Robert Lowe thought there was no good reason
why different religious sects should not agree as well
in Ireland as they do here. The ea tstence of. Fenian.
ism was not in point, as an evidence of discontent,
for there was no proof that the great body of Irish
people sympathized with that rebellions spirit, which
was confined to American agitators. ehe trouble was
deeper seated. It was untrue that Ireland
had been injured by English legislation. General
assertions only were made about land grievances, hat
no facts were presented. Ile was opposed to the
system of small tenures, urged by Mr. Mill and others,
as not the highest type of civilization, and which, if
adopted, would be stereotyped ad
Ho deplored the establishinent of sectarian
collegesinei t her the clergy nor the laity wanted them, '
and the proposition was simply a trick of the govern
ment to gain time. The fact was that one-tenth of
ail property in Ireland was public, but was used for the
benefit of only one out of twelve of the inhabitants.
This 'lves the great evil, and it was a scandalous one.
Mr. Thomas Hughes made a speech, in which he
urged general reform in Ireland.
Mr. Vance in the course of his remarks argued that
free trade bad been very injurious to Ireland.
Mr. Jacob Bright forcibly denounced the anomalies
of the Irish Church establishment.
Mr. Mill deplored the beggarly account of the Irish
policy of the Ministry, and approved of the manly
speech of Mr. Lowe on the Church question, and con
cluded with all argument showing that auch a college
as was proposed was impossible.
31r. Gathorne Hardy defended the government,
ai% ip!! a long review of its Irish policy. Ile said he
believed the same fears were expressed, and reasons •
given, in 1813. Yet how many year.; had the Whigs
held power since then without taking any action in
regard to the grievances of Ireland.
At 11 p. m the debate still continued, and the House
will probably hold an unusually long session.
Minister Adams.
LosnoN, March 12.-The "British League of Peace
and.Liberiv - propose to offer Mr. Adams an address
through John Bright.
Henry W. Lord, about to retire from the American
consulate at Manchester, was entertained by the mer
chants_of that city_last..evening at a farewell dinner.
The Mayor of Manchester expressed his regret at the
departure of Mr. Lord, and warmly eulogized his rep
resentation of the United States.
