The maxim‘ expressio unius est exclusio alte wed smorg the Grst in the lawyer's horn-book; and, a3 the Queen’s Advecate truly observes, it i¢ conciusive on the present point, Every instrument which engages the siz- nataries not to do certain acts empowers and eniisles thei to do every other act of the same claus, Moreover, the Americans have expressly reserved to us our pro- tectorate of these Indians, it rests with them to define the powers which they admit to be lodged with us. What is the protectorate? Mr, Reverdy Johnson treata us no clearer ajfflirmati deasriptios of it than the rhetorical phrase we quoted—it is, it seams, the “shadow of a name,” Negatively, he defines it in this Se We never istend- 0 to do anything which cou’d enable the enemies of this miserable remnant of lodians to butcher and starve them, snd we thought that both Great Britain and the United States owe it to their high character for civilize tion and humanity to interfere so far in their behalf as to expulsion of nda they occupied, without extioguish ing by # reasonable indemnity the {ndian title, according to the rules of justice which have besn admitted both by the Exglish and ourselves.’’ There sre plenty of words here, bat what cothey meau? That a jeint protection ve his shins sosttered about it is reduced to the ‘shadow of amams.”” Acd the prac- diffisult to induce the Duke de Nemours to surrender t rights of his orphan nephews to their cousin, the Coant de Chambord, with the tame facility with which at the head of ten thousand men, he surrendered the Talie- rig to @ balfarmed and undisciplined mob; but, in @ matter so nearly ccncerning the destinies of her chiidren, the widowed Duchess of Orleaus claims, as ia patural, a right to be consulted, and a Greases to her royal aad ‘dear brether-inlaw” a» letter om their behalf, ecuched in terms which it is @'fisult to read without igh of sympathy for her fa len greatness, and without « smile for the stra: position which the neoeerity of ihe case drives the mother of the legitimate ‘">atilor of the roysity of the barricades to asrums. Since the unfortunate Moria Antoinette no prises hae married into the royal famity of Frangs with brigb! hopes and clearer prospects than !!+len, Duchess of Orleans. Her husband was the heir apparent of a wise and powerful king. who traloed ia the school of the sternest adversity, had learned the art of winaia: acrosn, and seemed likely, according to the short sighted prevision granted to man, to preserve it by the sane talents by which he had gained it, and hard it dowa in unimpaired, or even augmented, digcity to hia successor, The Duke of Orleans enjoyed a wice and earaed pepulariiy iv Frazce, and possessed an affabliity of man- pers and ® wartial decision si firmness of character which premised eafety for bis throne and glory nad aus- cows for his arma. The first cloud that darkened these fa'r prospects was the untimely death of this young Prince, just at the time when his father’s deslinio, years began te need his sspport, aad the evil counsels of sycophants and intrigners inmost required the counterac- ion of » fresh and vigorous intellect. What the woman felt it is easy to imagine. What the Princess and her children lost it ta impossible to estimate, Wiih the Dake D’Orlvans were dashed to the ground the hopes and the fortune of hia wife and children, Yet for six yeara the reign was protracted in spparent power and splendor, and the widow might dry her teara when she mused oa the splencid destiny that awaited her so2. At last came tha ‘21th of February, and in two or three hours the fabric of the mother’s hopes and ambition melted like snow befure the blast of @ furzace. Alone of all her house, she had the courage to confront :he threatening wultitade, and, strong in her maternal love, to expose her unarmed breast to the and muskets of the brutal mob. The efforts was in } but stil, im foreign exile, she bas clung with a mo ‘ther’s constancy and s woman's simple true heartedoess to the hopethat the day shali yet coms when France shall recogaise the title of her ctild, acd reatore him to the throze of his grandfather. The last blow has been was substituted by the convention for the single protec torate of Great Britain’ Or that Great Britain is only en- titled to'interfere in case a war of extirpation is waged against the Mosquitoes? Or that Great Biitain, though entitled to protect the Morquitoer, is bound to dasist i “reasoradle indemnity’’ for their lands is tendered by Costa Rica or Nicaragua? ry, aud say whether Mr, Puff extrasted » more extra ordinary meaning from Lord Burleigh’s pbake of the bead than Mr. Johascp doaa from the simple language of this clearly drawa inetrument. In the United States, tue publication of ths correspon- dence may probably serve a little to warm up the tepid ¢regs of antl: British feeling; but,wa are not induced to thick that it will retard the progress of the negotiations now proceeding at Washington, or postpone the ultimate nettlement of ccnflicting claims in Central Ameris President Pierce has, fortunately, no concern with the ralscarrlgge of Mr. Clayton’s policy, and is under n0 ob ligation to consult the credit cf his party by icuisting that the Protectorate ef the Morquitoes has departe: from us. In the view of the exietiog American govern- ment. we have still, beyond our actual posrsssions, cor- tain rights in Central America to retain, modify, or sur- render; and they sre not so honorable or valuable a4 to put the two latter courres ext of the question, if reason able terms are proposed by the A uerican Executive. We sre pretty rure, too, that the people of the United Stat ‘will not think the worse of us in the long run, for re! ing to be tricked by Mr. Clayton's tranepsrent sophism, However prone our cousina may be to drive # hard bar. gain, they are not famous for reepesting the persons of whom they gat the better; and they will probably be all the more con’ented with the approaching arrangement when they see that we know our rights and uaderstand their value. [From the London Times, Jan. 20.] The correspondenee laid before the American Oongrene reepecting certain British treaty rights in Central Ameri- cn, will probably interest the people of this country only in so far as it may apprar to affect the relations between | Epgland and the United Stat+s. Tae actual question at issue is certainly not more attractive than diplomatic questions usually ae, but its general character ac ailia of intelligible exposition, Gesirable thas canal, counscting the Atlantia and Pa- cifcocesnr, ehould b+ cons:ructed across the Isthmus of Nicaragua.

Bat, in making thie assertion, we must freely add our belief that Britikh interes's would rustain no kind of damsge from fuch ap adjustment as would be more agreeable to the American goverrment thau tha maintenance of our lawinl rights. The whole question, in short, bears oon tiderable resem blanes to thet of the flaberies, which threatened to produce unpleasant embroilments some ¢izhteen months ago, The rights of the sase, as deduel ble from argument, u-nge, and the letter of treaties, rest with the British; but there is jast so much rearon in the desires of the Americans as might induce @ friendly government to consnit them. We cannot say that their wishes are altogether ee defensible in thid care as that of fisheries; for, whereas im the latter the ecnveaienc id interests of their enilors were ericently covoerned, ia the present instance they are contensing for Ui'tle more than exala. tive territoriel predomizancs.

These, however, are very grave matters indeed; the people of England are happily endowed with ae too great a sobriety of temper, as well as with too clear a jndgment, to proceed to #ach extremities without due cause, and without very sufficient proof. Noone pre sume that in the confidemce of married life the Queen and her busband may aot ocoaversa upon public affeirs, When the Engiish nation ibe rately accept foreign Prince as the consort of their Queen they must needs accept this consequence, this inconvenience, if they will. It is a lesser insonveni’ ence than woula ariee from the sdeption of any other course, But, because it is not to be expected from haman nature that two persons in so intimate an alliance shonid never open their lips to each other upon subjects of the greatent in erest to them both, does it therefore follow that the Prince Consort must necessarily be wad enough to propose, and the Qaeen be mad snough to seqniesce in, suggestions contrary to the interests of tae country? Eesides, what becomes of the Mivisters of State, aud of majoritles in the honses of Parliament! The wicked sud silly people who set these rumors afloat were so ill ip: structed in their trade of calumny, and #6 ignorant of ‘the matterin hasd, that at the outset thoy literal y con- founded together a8 the same thing the Cabivet Counsil and the Privy Council. Because Priace Albert nas @ member of the Privy Connell, therefore he was up 20 to exercise & great and devisive influence upoa the coun. cils of the cabinet, Such is the state of this ridiculous controversy, which was batched up by the despair of one extreme political party, and greedily canght up by auotier. Tne same ru- mor which accused the Prince cast the province of accus- er upon Mr. Roebuck, ‘Roebuck was to get up in the House of Commons, and then we ould see what we sbould eee.’”’ We bad just the same reason for belleving that Mr, Reebuck bad undertaken the functions of ac- user as we had for believing in the guilt of Priace Al- bert. The real nature of the case, as far as Me. Roebuck is conce: may be seen la snother portion of our ool- umns this cay, in the form of a most manly and sensible letter which he bas just addressed to that ome of ou! cotemporaries from which he had reosived hie brief.‘ Rumor,” says Mr. Roebuck, “has taken an unwarraptable liberty with my name.’ His ia not the only name with which ramor has of late occupied iteelf, ‘nd much in the same way. We have no doubt that a few days will silence the most obst: deter ined grumblers among all thove who to bring accusations without proof agai man. The Prince Consort is suraly well enough aware by this time that he has nothing to do with ths duties of government. 11 knows that any attempt to atepout of his legitimate province would be firmly repelled; and he is far too wise @ man to sacrifice his well earaed pcpu- larity for spy such foolish schemes ef political powar as bis calumuiaters bave dared to impute to him, As to what remains, when the mob of acousere who have been #0 busy with hia mame have recovered from their tempo: Tary vertigo, sey will be esger to make him fulsome amends fcr their previous tojuntis we". . ‘TO THE EDITOR O¥ THH DAILY Nw 2 fm—A friend having icformed me yesterday vax. nas in the rabject of a jieg article in your paper, | was duced to read the article, as I was desirous of kaowing bow one who led so quiet and retired a life could hecome the subject of s political writer’s lacubrations. I found it stated in the article in question, that it was currantly reported that I intended, on the opening of Parliament, to question ministers on the subject of the alleged terierence of Prince Albert with the business of gover ment. Now, on this statement I beg to remark that the person who first set this rnmor afloat took au unwar- rantable Hberty with my name, as I never, by writit or by word of mouth, gave anybody reason to belie that [bad such an intention. I neither intend to make much irquiry, nor have I ever iatended doing so. I may sink in your estimation by this declaration; but surely a man ought to posseas some evidence before he brings an acousation—and such an inquiry 80 made {s equivalcat to an accusation; and o1 he who puts the question coght to believe that there exists some grounds for the irapuiation which it conveys. I, however, ave no evidence re pecting the matter, and was not 6, until I read the article in the Daily News, that the charge was seriously made.
