The President called upon the mover of the resolutions, Mr, Swartzwelder, to make some remarks. Mr. Swartzwelder said that he feared the Intensity of his emotions, consequent upon the death of a friend bo long known and valued, might prevent their just expression. He said the great cardinal virtue of’ Justice McClure, that which most dis tinguished him, was integrity ol heart and head, of the affections and the thoughts. He was emphatically an honest thinker and doer, scrupulously conscientious in thediss oharge of his multifarious duties, "scorning delights, and living laborious d.ys,” inso much that he fell at last a victim to his sense of doty. : In the administration of the criminal law, (though a humane, benevolent and ten der»hearted man) ha kept constantly in view its end—Juslice; ana where the facts were evident, he rarely permitted the end to be sacrificed by the means, justly bellev* ing with that great criminal lawyer, Jus tice Hale, that severity towards the culprit was justice and mercy to the community regarding the living spirit of the law rather than its dead letter. Profoundly versed in criminal law, he broaght to the enforcing and illustration of its principles a memory t-ich in varied read ing and a taste and fancy that adorned and allured while iv convinced, Sensibly alive to all the gentle and hu manizing influences of poesy and art, he did not disdain their use and aid in giving grace and comeliness to dry abstractions; in legalargumqntation, as in architecture, he gratified the senee while he improved the use; familiar with the literature of the past and present, he culled from the gardens of the poets and divines, Shakespeare and Taylor, Puller and Milton, flowers where, with to adorn and beautify the otherwise arid domains of Poster and Hale. So just a magistrate, so gentle a man, eould not be otherwise than a good Chris tian, and sure of the Christian’s reward. May we strive to acquire his Christian graces and emulate his virtues. Peace to his ashes. Hon. A". W. Loomis said that the highest eulogy he conld pronounce upon the official oharaoter of the departed was a repetition of that written by Byron on the death of Henry Kirke White, who fell a victim to •verexertion in making literaryresearehes. ae did thedeoeased to his unremitting, la bor as a Judge.

The National Intelligencer, in an articlo apparently semi official, says : “Whatever may be the disappointment of any at the result to which the adminis tration has come in tho settlement of a question which constitutionally devolves upon the Executive branch of the govern ment, we are sure that all will applaud tho firmness and sincerity with which the ad ministration, resisting a natural tonde-.cy impressed by tho concerted drift of publi opinion in our own country, has resolvod to do what it believed to be right in tho premises, and it surely should give a pause to all who mey be dis-osed to challenge tho propriety of the resolution to which the administration has come whon tney note that a contrary decision would leave us in opposition not only to tho views ol (yro&t Britain, but ala? to those which th government of France announces respect ing the principle of public ] hW involved in lhHtrH.nsaction.

(Translation.) Administration of Foreign Affairs, ) Political Department, No 32. } Paris, 8d December, 1861. Sir:— Tho arrest of Messieurs Mason and Hudoll, on board tho English packet “Trent” by an American cruiser, has pro duced in Prance, if not the same emotion as in England, at least extreme astonish ment and sensation. sentiment was at once engrossed with the lawful ness and the consequences of such an act and the impression which has resulted’ from this has not been, for an Instant doubtful. ’ The fact hes appeared so much out of accordance with the ordinary rules of in ternational law, that it has chosen to throw the responsibility for it exclusively on the commander of tho San Jacinto. Ills not yet given to us to know whether this supposition is will founded, and the government of the Einperor has therefore also had 4o examine the question raised by the taking away of the two passengers from iJjg i'reiu. The desiro to contribute to prevent a conflict, perhaps imminent, between the I two powers for which it is animated by sentiments equally friendly, and the duty to uphold, for the purpose of placing the rights of its own flag under shelter from any attack, cortain nrincipies essential to the security or neutrals, have, altor mature reflection, convinced it that it could not, under the circumstances, remain eaUroiv silent. 1 (fee , &0. u/V 0 ourdo<, P re g‘Bt. the Cabinet o!

J If it were admissible that under such cmditions the neutral Bag does not com pletely cover the persons and merchandise it carries, Ha immunity would be nothing more than an idle word. At any moment the commerce and the navigation of third powers would have to suffer from their in. nocent and even their indirect relations with the one or the other of the belliger ents. These last would no longer find themselves as having only the right to ex act from the neutral entire impartiality and to interdict all intermeddling on h’s pattin acts of hostility; they would im po»o 6n his freedom of commerce and navi anon restrictions which modern in tornatiunal law has refused i u admii as legitimate, and wo should, in a word fad back upon venations practices, ag’ainu which, ill other epochs, ni power has more earnestly protested ihan the United State*, If the Cabinet of Washington would only iook on the two persons arrested as robelß, whom it is always lawful to seize tho question, to place it on other ground’ could not be solved, however, in a sense' favor of the commander of the San Jacin to.
