The pik tl the United States has, moreover, mated that inasmuch as the slave trade on the coast of Cuba continues on the increase i is its inten- tion to send a larger mumber of vessels to that coast for the purpose of surpressing the tragic. (Hear, hear.) Such bas Deen the spontaneous result upon tho part of the American government of the action of ber Majesty's Ministers towards it upon this subjeet. Wpat I have contented myself with doing has been to forward to the government of America the accounts given by our commanders upos the African coast of the atrocious desecration of the American flag in the prosecution of the slave trade; and no language, I am happy w say, could be stronger than that which Lord Napier informe me was used by General Cass when he heard those reports, altogetuer independent of any com- ment which was mate upon them by her Majesty's go- yervmest, (Hear, hear.) And, my lords, while upon this subject, cannot refrain from expressing my satisfaction at another cbange which has taken place in ‘reference to the question of tho slave trade. Your lordships are well aware of the complaints which have lately been made in consequence of the adoption of the French ‘scheme of negro «migration to the French colonies, and you cannot bave failed to learn with satisfaction that the French government has within the last fortnight or three weeks abolished that system on the East Coast of Africa, where it had Jed to greater complicatious than in any other quarter. hear.) You have slso been made acquainted by & paragraph in the speech from the Throve that we are carrying on negotiations with the go- ‘yernment of France, at their invitation, with the viow of arriving at eome agreement by which the entire abolition of that system of nogro slavery might be accomplished— (bear)—and through which we may be able, under pro- per régulations—ia fact, under the same regulations which revail in our own case—to supply France with really free favor from the East Indies. (Heary hear.) Nothing, Tam happy to think, now seems wanting to enable us to bring all nations—each acting for itself, but at the same tims acting in unison with others—to the resolution to concur with ua in the suppression of the slave trade, and to abau- don a plan from which the well known horrors of the trailic but too often often result. (Hear,hear.) But one thing is wanted to congumate this good end, and that one thing is pence. (Hear, bear.) When the Russian war begun the slave trade had all but died away, Its complete abolition was checked by that event; but if we should oaly be for- tunate enough to enjoy for ‘some years to come the bless- ing of peace, the trade will, I feel assured, be completely extinguished, (Hear.) That blessing we have now every reason to hope awaits us. The speech which was recendly ly delivered ty the able and powerful ruler of France to the’ French Chambers tells us so upon the best an- thority, inasmuch as he from wheee lips it fell ts all prwer- Ful euther for peace or war. We have his assurance that Uity will be maintained, and we have no reason to doubt bis word, inasmuch as Lo man bas more faithfuily or loyally kept those treaties which, when he ascended the throne in 1852, ho promised to observe. I have, therefore, my lords, the strongest confidence in the cont! nuanee of peace, and the existence of that blessing is all, I feal azsured.gghat is required in order to put an end to a trafic odious®® itself, aad which this country has made 80 many and such great eacrifices to abolish. (Cheers.) ‘Gre Far! of Cranzxpox—I am glad my noble friend has beet afforded the opportunity of explaining to the House the course which he has taken in reference to this impor- laut subject, and also of setting right public opinion with respect to certain concessions which he is supposed to have made. Tho community at large have no means of acquiring information upon such transactions except througt: the medinm of the press or the papers which have been laid before Congress; to one of which—the despatch of Mr. Dallas, which was alluded to by noble friend bebini mo, and which J must say is one of the most graphic ard interesting documents J ever real in my life— T would particularly refer. It presonts such a picture of “the interior’? as is rarely given. (A laugh.) It des- cribes how much my noble friend opposite talked; how mueh ue listened—(lavghter)—and dilates upon the ad- iration which he expressed for the despatch of General Cass. But it would seem that when my noble friend asked Mr. Dallas to report to his own government the conversation which had taken place, the reply was that it was so multifarious that it was completely out of his power to comply with the request. Mr. Dalias, however it seoms, suggested that my noble friend should him: undertake the ollie of preparing a minute of the conyer- sation, and accordingly the noble earl went to his desk, and with the utmost readiness wrote down that minute of all that passed of which your lordships have heard, and which is certainly a most important document, binding as it docs her Majesty’s government to uadertake great treaty obligations. I for one—possessing some slight ex- perience of such matters—could not help envying the self confidence displayed by tho noble lord in sitting down to compose ina few hours sucaa document, al- though ny surprise is somewhat diminished by the ‘ex planetion which he has just given, to the eflect tat he had prev.ously held communication upon the subject under discussion with the law officers of the Crown. Ishoutd not, however, have troubied your lordships upon this oc- casion were it not for what has fallen from my noble friend with respect to the course which he says was pur- sued by his predecessors ia office. It would appear that the noble earl cousiders we claimed aright of search, which could be exercised only by belligerents; and to exercise which, in time of peace, would be comtrary to international law. Wo, however, ‘never claimed or exer- cised any such right. The state of the law, as well as our practice towards vther countries, was laid own with the utmost distinctness by my noble friend above me (the Earl of Aterdeen), in language which commanded the assent the Minister, who, atthe same time, filled the office of lary for Foreign’ Affairs in the Uniled States. Jt was then provided that we should have the means of ascertaining the nationality of a ship, and of learning whether she was in reality entitteii (0 carry the colors which she Lore. It was understood that this course sbould always be pursued with great caution and diseretiun, and on the responsi- bility of the officers in command, and it was provided at the same time that no yeesel entitled to fly the American colors should be meddled with, nor should the British officers. meddle with such a veasel, even though it abso: Jutely had a cargo of slaves on board. Now, no doubt on ‘the coast of Cuba acts may bi en committed by our offi cers which can hardly be josti hough we do not even know the truth of that. “It is perfectly true that mail af- ter mail brought over a catalogue of British outrages, some of which were manifest exaggerations, and of cours such instances demand stric' suppose, we ebsll r 7 believe that, except perhaps on the coast of Cuba, this search has been cxercised with great care and discr’ by our officers, and, so fur from the American govern- ment having cause for displeasure, I think they ehoula be obliged to ue for having rescued ‘their flag when borne under such illegal and disreputable circumstances. Hear.) believe, at all events, that the Parliament and the Ministry’ of this country wo obliged to any other Power which rescued English fag from similar disgrace. (Hear, bear.) But, ‘in reality, the right of search, so understood, ‘did work well. It was aiways confined to the African coast; it very rarely interferd with the legitimate course of commer*s, and the result to both governments appeared perfectly satisfac tory. If, however, as tho result of my noble friend's altered arrangements there is to be no inquiry of this sort as to the nationality of a vessel, and if that nationality is to be assumed from the colors wh choores to fly, why there is an end of ail precautionary measures. (Hear. ) The Fari of Mutweenvey—I may not bave mate myself thoroughly understood, and perhaps your lordstiips will allow me to explain. If the course just suggested oy the noble earl were pursued, what would be tae use of the identical instr Those instructions are intended to give our cruisers the right of chailenging ouly, so as to put an end to the anomalies which arose in the practice of different commanders, and to prevent the disputes which have hitherto taken place between the two countries. I do not give up the right, which,on the contrary, isa well-establisbed right; but at the same time we bave thought it desirable to Gx the responatbility upon the offl- cers exercising it. ‘The Earl of Canexpox—Not haying scon the instruc- tions I cannot give an opinion respecting them; but I do not clearly understand, even now how these identical in- structions will enable a British officer to institute inquiry asto the ‘nationality of an American vessel. (Hear, hear.) A‘ all events, we must have the same sets of rules and regulations for all nations. We cannot have one code for a powerful and another for a weak pation. (fear bear.) We must exercise the same forbearance, same abstinence from inquiry, in respect to every’ flag, wo that tbe Monaco must allowed b: British cruisers to pass aa unnoticed as that of Ame- rica. (Hear, hear, and a» laugh.) But I believe the American government are quite as desirous as our own honestly to down the slave trade, and aro just as unwilling as ourselves that the national flag should be prostituted by shielding this sbomina- ble trafic. I can only hope that the new regulations adopted and these icentical instructions will be enc- cessful; but to be successful they must be adopted by other Powers than by France and Engiand, for otherwise they might be easily eluded by adopting the flag of the country which bas not subscribed to them, and they Would thus become wholly inoperative, (Hear, hear.) Karl of Aumeprxy—It should be remembered that the right of search is by no means inseparably mixed up With the slave trade, and is only connected with - dentally. Considering it as an abstract right, the nobie earl opposite (the Earl of Malmesbury) talked of our exer- cising this claim with a high hand. Now, I will read to your lordships bow this ‘high hand” was exercised twen- iy years ago—excrcined in a way which perfectly satiated @ American government, and which has worked per- fectly well ever since, without unduly Interfering with the Course of trade. In ‘a despatch dated October, 1841, to Mr. Stevenson, I adopted these terms: — ‘The undersigned renouners al! pretensions on the part of the British government to visit and search ameriean vessels in time of peace. Nor is it as American that such vensela are ever visited; but it has been the invariable praccice of the Bri- tish navy, and, as the undersigned beileves, of ail navies in the ‘world, a by v the rei > ioowility of merchant vessels met with on the high seas, if there be good reason to Apprehend their illegal charueter. ‘To carry out this system a code of instructions was framed with the utmost care, and has ever since remained in force; and if the new regulations spoken of by the noble earl prove ag effectual as they were, he will do more than | expect, for I believe no code of instructions on this subject could be clearer or more advantageous to commerce than that drawn up about 184i by Dr. Loshington and others. But it now appears that the American Minister has been congratulating his county Om some concession made by the noble earl, and President, in his annual moseago, bas also pooh] = acted 4s though it were something q new. low I venture to say that twent! cars everything which it was possible for tho ‘austioane 10 demand, oF for us to grant, had been granted. I will just read, however, a qualification which was then laid down, and which it may be useful to remember:— ‘The President may be assured that Great Britain the Just claiios of tho United Staves. We mage nets, interfere in any manner whatever, either by te with Vemeels of the United Bates, keown it we still maintain, and will exer quiry; bat I the right fteeit would be I maintain still that tt is quite impossible to ‘right thus laid down. (Hoar, hear.) If tho noble car! reserves that right, he does all that I ever pre tended to do; if he gives up more than that, the resuit, I cannot but think, will be that it wiil become impossi- Die to maintain the police of the seas. (Llear.) ‘The Ear! of Canisix—l hope that the principle so fore: bly proclaimed in the extract just rend by my noble friend inti- | will wot bo departed from in the polisy of this country, Males we are ‘argured of very palpablo. advantages from the adoption of some other scheme. I believe [am cor- rect in stating tbat the prinoiple just announced is the iden- tical one always acted upon until the accession of the pre- | sent government. (Hear, bear.) The adoption of the new code referred to by the noble ear!, and to which I heartily wish all possible success, will, I trust, be deter- mined 00 at the earliest possible moment; for until some- | thing is resolved upon respecting it the high seas will be | left with absolutely no protection whatever. (Hear. ) | _, The Bart of Dsnny.—There snems to, mo, » fa point of fact, to be only an imaginary éifference betw | expressed on both sides of the House. Nobody contends | fora moment thal this cowniry or amy other has a | right to board and to visit the ships of another nation, | On the other hand, nobody denies that this country or any other bas aright, upon well-founded suspicion, to ascertain the nationality of a vessel carrying @ particn- lar flag. The question is, however, in what manner is that right to be exercised, and what (ings are to be taken in pursuance of it? Now, as long as thero is no definition ag to the course to be ‘taken {a such cases, you aro always liable for the errors or indiscretion of the rticular officer engaged, and in point of fact, although Bet mmay have ascertained. that there were’ plausible grounds for suspecting the flag, it is quite clear he bas committed an infraction of law should that suepicion turnout to be ill-founded, Nevertheless, it is admitted that, under such ciroamatances, there exists reasonable ground of suspicion, an ings aro taken accordingly, that is an infraction of the law for which no country would demand redress. But the object of my noble friend—and I hope he will succeed in effect- ing it—is to come to a distinct uuderstanding between the French and American governments and tho government of this country for the purpose of avoiding any cause of difference, for the future, arising outof a visit paid by tho commander of a cruiser in order to ascertain and to verily ‘the nationality of a vessel. That was the sole object my noble friend bad in view; but he has neither abandoned any right which this country could claim, nor has he a ‘Were not pr ly en- Lord Brovauam had heard with very great satisfaction the statement of bis pe re the Becre tary ot Biake for Foreign Aduirs, that were in progress between the governments of France and of this country which there was reason to hope would have the effect of ex- tinguishing that slave trade which has been partly re. pressed on the western coast of ACr ‘with satisfaction from his noble friend opposite that a code had been submitted to the French government which was Ukely to lead to a satisfactory solution of the difficulties which had arisen with respect to the right of inquiry or the right of visit, whichever it might be called, and that, in all probability, the quostion would be placed on sa! factory footing by an agreement between the three Pow- ers. He quito agreed with his nobie friend below him, who was formerly at the head of the Foreign Department, that the question with regard to search was not of neces- sity connected with tho slave trade. It was a question which applied to common piracy as well as to that which he (Lord Brougham) certainly thought as bad as any pira- cy—the slavetade. He asked their lordships what would De the consequence if the principle occasionally contended for on the part of France and the United States were laid down—that no cruizer hada right to stop a vessel upon the high seas for the purpose of uscertaining that the flag hoisted by such vessel was one which it was entitled to use? Be must say that he thought the absurdities aud in- consiatencies to which so extravagant a doctrine would lead had been rather understated by his noble friend be- hind him. Supposing a vessel—say a common pirate— hoisted a national flag, according to the doctrine contended for, no cruiser, except a cruiser of the country whose flag she hoisted, had a right. to stop her and institute an inqui- ry. The conaequence would be that sucha ship would take care to hoist the flag of acountry which had no cruiser at all (“hear,” and @ laugh)—and she would, therefore, be certain of escape. His noble friend had put the case of Monaco, and many similar instances might bo mentioned. For example, San Marino, with ite 1,500 in- habitants, although having a flag, might have no cruiser, ani consequently the San Marina flag might be used with abgolute and inevitable impunity, not only by slave traders, Dut to cover any nefarious transactions, The difliculty was undoubtedly to make a distiaction ‘tween visitation, which incladed the right of boarding and searching, and mere inquiry in order to ascertain’ the natiouality of a vessel; but be did not think such inquiry could be insti- tuted without the risk of great inconvenience and of pos- sible collision between ‘rent countries; for much would depend upon the temper, prudence and ‘sagacity of the officers—possibly very young men—who were intrusted with the duty of ascertaining that vessels were entitied to hoist the flags under which they were sailing. (Hear, bear.) He believed the only way of preventing such collisions would be by adopting some code, or set of instructions, which might be agreed to by the United States and other countries. It must be remembered that by the law of nations, which it was now the fashion to call “international law,” there was no distinction between one country aud another; and the little States of Monaco and San Marino had just the game right to appeal to the law of nations, and to demand the scrupulous observance of its provision, as Frauce, Eng- laud; or any other Power. (Hear, beat.) He had’ heard with’ great gratification the statement of his noble friend posite, that he entertained no doubt, from the aspect irs on both sides the channel, that peace was likely tobe maintained. He (Lord Brougham) earnestly hoped, and devoutly prayed, that his noble friend might be right in thet expectation, and that bis hopes were not too san- guine. Knowing, as he (Lord Brougham) did, the strong, the unanimous and the heartfelt opinion and feeling ot all men on the other side the channel, as on this, against any breach of the peace, and after a long and uninterrupted continuance of that'invaluable blessing, he would have deen better satistied, and have felt the more sanguine in his hopes, if there were in other countries, as there was in this, constant, legitimate and regular expreesion of public opinion and of public feeling derived from the in- estimable privilege of a Par! te The subject then dropped. MINUTE OF CONVERSATION PETWEEN MR DATLAS AND YORD MALMEUORY, JUNE 8, 1858, Her Majesty's government are not prepared to justify or excuse euch acts on the part of their offloers is have been complained of by the United States goverament, if they are truly reported. Her Majesty’s government recogniee the principles of international law as iaid down by General Cass ia his note of the 10th of April, and that nothing in the treaty of 1942 supersedes that law. Her Majesty's government, however, think it most in- digponsabie, in the interest of civilization and the police of the seas, that there should be a power of verifying the nationality of a vessel suspected on good grounds of car- rying false color, Majesty's government would wish to learn from the United States government their views in detailon this point, in the hope that some mutual arrangement, by way of proceedings to be executed by our respective officers, may be found effective without being offensive. The French have Istely proposed and laid down this one, viz— That a boat may be rent alongside of a suspected ship, and may ask for papers, but not, unless tnvied, board the vessel. Such is our arrangement with France, MALMESBURY. (Confidential } In any further communication on this eubject it is re- quested that the letter following the date may be quoted. ‘ADMIRALTY. M. Sm—The treaties with France for the suppression of the slave trade having been abrogated, Iam commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the’ Admiraity to acquaint you that no vessels under the French flag can be legally Visited or searched, unless from positive information or from strong grounds of suspicion, there may be reason to believe that such flag bas been fraudulently assumed; in which case the utmost caution and circumepection must be used. All officers are required to obgerve that when- ever versels under the French flag may have been boarded upon suspicion the master or ownera will be en- titled to iudetonity for apy injury or iosses which they my have sustaned by detention, if it shall appear that the vessel is bona fide entitled to the protection of tbe Freoch flag, whether engaged in the slave trade or not. It is only in cages in which vessels not legally enti- tled to the protection of the French flag may have assnmed it fraudulently, that they can be lawfully detained or vieit- ed, and a special report in each case is to be sent direct to the Secretary of the Admiralty, as well as to the com- mander-in-chief, when vessels under the French flag may have been boarded on suspicion of fraud. The same cau- tion should be shown in visiting vessels suspected of fraudulently using the flag of the United States, or of any other nation with which Great Britain has not a treaty un- dor which the right of visit and search could be given to officers of her Majesty's ships. ‘The Italian Question. THE LATEST FROM PARIS TO LORD DERBY’S ORGAN. {Paris (Feb. 12) correspondence of London Herald.) Tt would be absurd to consider the fluctuations of pub- Ji¢ opinion in Paris as any indication of the real state of affairs. To-day the war rumors aro in the ascendant; to- morrow the party will probably be masters of the field, But the situation appears ‘The more thie state of uncertainty is the more trying it proves to those interesta on whose prosperity that of the contrary so much depends. Though six weeks have elapsed since the first tidings of a serious mis- understanding between France and Austria first threw Enrope into « panic,a solutim appears as far off as ever. Nevertheless, I am assured that diplomacy has not idle, but it does not appear that any sa- tisfactory ’ understan has beon arrived at. It ould be premature st this, stage of the proceedings to State what has been done; it will be sufficient to gay that as yet Austria has steadily refused to make concessions which the Cabinet of Vienna feel would amount to the abandonment of all the Austrian possessions of Lombardy. It in difficult to way that she is much to blame in this. However obnoxious the slave trade, it would be too much to expect the West India planters readily to have accepted Proposals for its abolition, especially when not the slight. eat prospect of compensation was held out. in is ecitely n this case, and hence the alarm of the unwar- like public, who only now begin to perceive how matters really stand, The withdrawal of the Freuch and Austri- forces from the States of the Church would be immediately Jollowed by a universal insurrection, which must lead to hos- talities between France and Piedmont on the one hand, with Austria on the other. If wise counsels prevail, how- ever, the danger will be averted. Let Franco aud Piedmont remember the memorable speech in which the first of Piedmontese statesmen, Maseimo d’, lio, blamed, in the Turin Parliament, the headstrong and dan: re course pursued by Cavour in the Congresa of Paris. le pointed out that the regeneration of Italy was a ques- tion of time; that the proper way of making corn grow was to water and cultivate it, not by pulling at the stalka to make them longer. In a word, he intimated that the in- terest of Piedmont was to instil’ the practice of liberty into the Italians by her example, and that by previpitating matters she would postpone the indepen of Ttaly’ and perhaps lose all that she had gained wise policy be followed?
