Oa the part of the United States it may be contended, that Mr. Chatfieid’s numation to the President of Honduras was never more than a mere menace, and that, before any steps were taken to alter its character, the temporary or permanent sovereigaty of Tigre Island had passed by treaty to the Union. An advocate of Great Britain may, on the other hand, urge that Mr. Chatfield took the strongest measures which at the time were in his power, aad that the subsequent occupation of ‘Tigre was strict- ly part of a continuous act—in consequence of, and in strict comnection with, its commencement. Yet we are much mistaken if any but the law- yers of either nation will be content with such a view of these curious transactions.
