RS THE HIGH COMMISSION. Apprehensions of a Hitch in Its Deliberations. The Sessions of the Week Not Very Encouraging. England's “Peace Offering” Not So Generons as at First Supposed. The Old Johnson-Clarendon Treaty Stipu- lations to Be Adhered to by England, British Stubbornness Against American Backbone, WASHINGTON, March 12, 1871. The Joint High Commissioners have finished the ‘rst week of their deliberations. They have done a great DEAL OF DINING AND WINING, ‘but very little business. The hot weather seems to ave already affected some of the members, but they will have hotter weather and hotter work be fore they conclude their labors, IN ADMINISTRATION CIRCLES the idea given out 1s that all the pending ques- tions between tuis country and Great Britain will be speedily settled to the satisfaction of both coun- tries. Prominent people here, however, who take the deepest interest 1p this important international affair, who closely watch all the indications and who have taken special pains to acquaint themselves ‘with the course of the proceedings, are inclined to the opinion that the Commission will NOT ARRIVE AT ANY CONCLUSION ‘that will meet the sanction of the Senate or the ap- Proval of the country. The removal of Senator Sumner from the chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate 1s in this special particular regarded asa most unfortunate clreum- Stance for the country. Leading men, whose opinions represent those of millions of constituents, are apprehensive as to the result, and they are free to say that they ao not believe thé Commission will arrive at any satisfactory adjustment, At all events they have confidence in the force of public senti- meut and the deliberate Judgment of the Senate. The protracted sessions of the Commission give credibility to the generally received impression that ‘our Commissioners do not find the ENGLISH COMMISSIONERS AS YIELDING as it was supposed they would be, and the idea finds growing strength that, whatever may have | been the general understanding between Mr. Fish aud Mr. Thornton, some of the members of the American Commission consider that they have higher duties to perform than merely to register the conclusions agreed to beforehand by the Secretary of State and the British Minister. Indeed, so far has this impression gaimed credence that already the probability of the Commission bursting up, not from physical, but mental causes, is freely can- ‘vassed, 4t is reported that a very singular change of pinion has taken place in the views of the adminis- tration CONCERNING CANADA wince the date of the President's Message last De- ember. Then the creation of the Dominion of Canada was referred to in anything but complimen- tary terms, as @ semi-indepeudent but wholly irre- Sponsidle government, Now, it is stated upon good authority, that the administration regards she establishment of the Dominion government as a step toward annexation to the United States and altogether worthy of being encouraged and sus- tained by us. Heretofore many people in the United States believed that the establishment of the Do- minion, like the attempted establisnment of the em- pire in Mexico, was a blow aimed at the United States in their hour of peril and a fagrant and posi- tive VIOLATION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THE MONROE DOCTRINE, changing the simple form of a colonial provincial government into a dominion, a sort of mongrel mon- archy, to be erected into a kingdom hereafter if suc- cessful. The failure of the Dommion would inevit- ably bring about the independence of the people of Canada, as it is Known the people there would not revert back to the provincial system. Yet it is now said that the administration deems it the part of good statesmanship to en- courage the success of the Deminion and thus effec:ually frustrate the hopes of liberal Canadians im favor oi independence and freedom from English rule, If these rumors are not correct as to the changed views of the administration it is only right that the government should have an opportunity thus aforded of denying them. MR. THORNTON'S RECENT LETTER to a New york lawyer is freely commented on here, 88 going to show the determination of the English Commissioners to insist upon a consideration of the British cotton and other claims as an offset to the Alabama claims. The expression of thoughtful and patriotic public sentiment, as represented here, and in these despatches carefully communicated to the HERALD, is reproduced in what looks like an origi- nal form in the following editorial article, which appears in the first number of the new Washington paper called The Capital:— The result of the labors of the Joint Commission, if any result it is feared, greatly disappoint pectations of those sanguine regard the Commission as a peace offering on the part of England.

By direction of the British government, Mr. ‘Thornton catied Mr, Fish’s attention to the existing aimoulties With her ajay’ North American pos- sessions regarding the fishery question, and reviv- ing & seggestion made in 1866 by Mr. Adams, at the Ume American Minister near the Court of St. James, proposed that Mr. Adams’ idea of a joint commission to adjust the fisheries dificul- Ues should be put in shape, the commis- Sion, as Mr, Adams haa s! sted, to consist of three members on each side. But never a word dia Mr. Thornton hint as to anything outside of the ‘sheries matter, which was to be made, as in 1854, the lever with which to re-instate the oid reciprocity treaty with Vanada. That the British government Was impressed with the urgency of the fishery difficulty is seen in the very pointed references made to it in the Queen's speech at the openii of Parliament last month. At Unis stage Mr. Fish lugged in the Alabama mat- ter, and England consented, but with the under- standing that the fishery question was first to be dis- josed of, Is there anything in all this to show that England was anxious about the Alabama matter, or. in agreemg to have it discussed she is willing to abandon what she has repeatedly declared to be her ultimatum? She consents to discuss the Alabama question, and at ence selects two of her strongest champions to fight for her view of it, Her Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Karl Granville, hastens to calm the English minu by declaring that no conclusion of the Commission ts binding upon her, and her leading journal aftirms the fixed purpose of England to go not one step beyond what she has already done. And this brings back the inquiry, What has she agreed to? Simply that she is willing to leave to arbitrators the question, pure and simple, as to whether she 18 responsible for the depredations of the Alabama, and whether the United States are responsible for the claims of British subjects during our civil war, and She has said that if such an arbitration 18 agreed to she is willing to abide by tts decision and pay any balance found due, but that she will net consent to Jeave to arbitration any form any other question as t her neutrality Jaws nor her proclamation of neutrality, nor her sympathies nor that of her people, either for or against the United States. This is the sum and sub- stance of the matter, and this 1s the only arrange- ment about the Alabama clatims which the English Commissioners will to, If such an arrange- Ment will be satisfactory to the American people we could have had it years ago, without the neeessity of the venerable head of the State Department having oe, aaa the role of Touchstone for the public THE ROMAN QUESTION. The Pope and the People—Uonnecticut Demon- strations in Support of the Holy Father— General Movement in the New Haven Churches—Consolation by Resolutions and Material Aid. New Haven, March 12, 1871. This evening iarge and enthusiastic meetings were held at St. Patrick's, St. Mary’s and St. Jolin’s churches, for the purpose of uttering a protest against the seizure and occupation of Rome by King Victor Emmanuel. At St. Patrick's church Rev. Father Hart presided, and opened the meeting with an address. He said they had met to extend their sympathies to the Holy,Father in his affliction, and to protest against the act of Victor Emmanuel. The occupation of Rome | could not be justified by the laws of nations. 1t was nothing less than highway ro bbery, He had seized | the patrimony of Rome and committed an outrage against the Catholic world. The pastor pronounced the plébiscite submitted to the people of Rome as ahumbug. There had been, he said, plédiscites that were right, The one voted | upon in the United States declaring secession wrong | Was an instance. England declared im favor of the plébisctte at Rome, but if a pidbiscite could be sub- mitted to Ireland her people would vote for free- dom from British rule. The piéviscite at Rome was carried by the force of 60,000 bayonets. | He believed that God would yet make His power felt at Rome and that the Pope would come out of his present trials triumphant. Resolutions were then adopted protesting, in the name of 200,000 Catholics in the diocese, against the occupation of Rome and exten@ing sympathy to the Holy Father. Short speeches were made by several of the mem- bers of the church endorsing the resolutions. At St. John’s church the meeting was called to order by Rev. Dr. Carmedy. Bernard Relily was elected chairman, and F. J. Fox ana Peter McQuade secretaries. Father Carmody stated the object of the assem- biage, and made a short address, They were present, he said, to mingle their voices | with Catholics in every clime Im sympathy for Pope Pius IX. He had been insulted and wronged, and thereby they had been tnsulted and wronged. | King Victor Emmanuel bad no right to | Rome. She belonged to the Catholic people all ever the world, Over a thousand years ago, after ; Rome had been made desolate and nearly a ruin, the Popes had assumed her rule, and through their | vVivifying infjJuence, assisted by the great gifts of the people, se had been made what she was. The gifts of the Catholic people made Rome theirs, and her seizure was an outrage to the Catho- lic worl They were assembled to protest against this violence and outrage, and he trusted | they would not cease to work until the Pope was restored to his temporal power. | Resolutions similar to those vefore spoken of were | reported by a committee, and after shert speeches by several present were adopted by the vast au- dience rising to their feet. | Atst. Mary’s church Kev. Father O’Brien presided, and, with brief remarks, introduced resolutions like those adopted by the ether churches. Judge W. E. Kobinson made a strong speech upon | the resolutions, stating the reasons why the Pope | should be allowed to retain his temporal power and | be free from the restraints of any outside govern- ) ment. L. Hayes and Charies Atwater and others also | spoke. The meeting was very enthusiastic and applauded heartily the remarks. The German Catholic church also held a meeting and adopted the resolutions. At all the churches committees were appointed to sign the resolutions and transmit them to the Arch- | bishop, to be sent to Rome. Lecture Last Evening by Bishop Bayley at St. Joseph’s Charch—Fierce Denunciations of Victor Emmanuel and the Italian Govern. ment. St. Joseph's Catholic church, Sixth avenue and Washington place, was crowded to inconvenience | last evening to hear the Right Rev. James Roosevelt | Bayley, Bishop of Newark, lecture on the Roman | question, After referring to the present position of ‘as golng through, the lecturer went on to — of peed nie ae ce iceman CHARACTER OF THE ITALIAN GOVERNMENT. He had followed its history since its formation, and he knew of no government of ancient or moda- ern tmes that had gained its points so much by falsehood, bribery and treachery as it has done, ; Little Prussia, now the leading Power of Europe, had attained its present strength by corruption and its dimensions by robbery. It has taken pos- session of the Papal States by violence, and on the principie of might conquering right. To show the | Corruption and profligacy of the government, it was | enough to state that when VICTOR EMMANUEL | ascended the Italian throne the national debt was only $30,000 and now it exceeds $3,000,000, And this with all the Church property which they had conils- caied and all the convents and monasteries, the pri- vate preperty of individuals, of which they had taken pessession. This robbery and confiscation \w erpetraied in the name of liberty. Not con- | tent witn having robbed the Churca of ‘iis property | they had gone Ww work deliberately to corrupt the minds of the people and turn them away from re- ligion. No government but should nave some RELIGION AND MORALITY at its foundation, but these would be looked for in | vain m that of Victor Emmanuel. Newspapers filled with immoral and mfidel teachings were pub- lished, and foul aud disgusting pictures were ex. | hie 1 in street windows for the express purpose of corrupting the minds aud morals of whe people, | The character of YHE PONTIFF WAS ATTACKED by these pi rs and disgusting caricatures of him | were disiributed about the streets. The speaker | could not understand how any person professing | the first principles of religion could approve of an | applaud such acts, as many have done in tuis ceun- ty andin England. He could only attribute it to | tlie bigotry of such people and their hatred of the Catholic religion. There can be no | two things more different than what is called liberty | in Europe and what is understood by the word in | this country, and he believed that in no nation was there liberty understood and enjoyed except in America, On THE CONTINENT OF EUROPE liberty meant {reedom from ali restraint and the right to commit all crimes against society and morality. Liberty, — progress and revolution were only words used for robbery and plunder, The lecturer then referred to Garibaldi, the master spirit of this organized band of robbers. That “great and good man,” as he had been called, had acknowledged himself that ne com- menced life as a pirate on sea, and he (the speaker) believed that he continued since to be a pirate on land. THE LONDON TIMES very truly taid some time ago that he had only one idea, aug tat jas A hatred of priests, Some people may say and believe that the Italian government have a good end in view, the consum- mation of which will justify all the TREACHERY AND TYRANNY, force and fraud, which it bas exercised, But people should be very cautious and conservative in their opinions in this respect. It would be carrying the doctrine of the ends justifying the means too far, and, further, these ends appeared to him to be neither good nor desirable. His lordship closed by expressing his firm conviction that the Pope will in be ruling in Rome before many years. # The lecture was lisiened to throughout with great ntion, and at the close the Rev. Father Farrelt thanked the congregation for the large attendance on so stormy an eveming. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. The Ku Klux Committee—Proposed Measures for the Protection of Loyalists in the South— The Question of an Early Adjournment. Wasainarton, D, ©., March 12, 1871. The Joint Outrage Committee. The committee appointed by the republican Sena- tortal caucus yesterday consists of Morton, of Indiana; Poole, of North Carolina; Scott, of Pennsylvania; Edmonds, of Vermont; Fre- Mngbuysen, of New Jersey; and the committee of the House republican caucus con- sists of Butler, of Massachusetts; Shellabarger, of Ohio; Mercur, of Pennsylvania; Thomas, of North Carolina, and Coburn, of Indiana. They will mee to-morrow morning to prepare a bill to protect loyal citizens of the United States in the full enjoyment of their rights, persons, liberty and property against Ku Klux outrages. Such offences are regarded as and will be declared violations of the constitution of the United States and therefore the President will be authorized to employ land and naval forces in certain cases for the purposes indicated. Although no measure has yet been prepared if 18 supposed that it will be proposed to appoimt commissioners to take cognizance of offences for the purpose of bringing them before the courts, The Senate caucus resolved to legislate only on Ku Klux outrages, while that of the House resolved to give such legis- lation the preference over all ether subjects. The Early Adjournment Question, ‘There is a disposition on the part of some of the Tepublicans to adjourn without any legislation whatever. The democrats will oppose all measures in relation to the South. The Interest on the Pacific Railrond Bonds. It has been published im some papers that the Sec- retary of the ‘Treasury intends to demand the payment of interest on bonds issued to the Union Pacttic Raltlroad, This is not true. The question whether the roads are liable to pay interest before the bonds are due does not appear to pe settled by the recent act of Congress, The Treasury is paying the roads one- half of the proceeds of transportation, as required by sald act. Contest for the Seat of Delegate trom Utah= The Female Saints and Suffrage. The Mormon question 1s revived to some extent by the claims of the Gentile candidate in the last election to the seat in Congress now occupied by the Mormon Utah delegate. I was in Salt Lake City during the election. There were over 20,000 votes returned for Captain Hooper, who was Brigham Young’s cnosen candidate, and who, of course, was declared elected, The census taken soon after the election showed the total population of Utah, including ali the women and ail the children, to be less than 90,000. That many thousand illegal votes were cast for Hooper 1s a fact which Was patent to every one, and which even the saints themselves could not call in question, That many illegal votes were also cast for General Maxwell, the rival candidate, 1s a fact which even some of the sinners in Corinne will be willing to substantiate, The vote returned for the Gentile in Corinne ex- ceeded the total population of the town; so thas, so far as the point of illegal voting is concerned, there 18 NO avantage on either side, except with reference to numbers; and in this the Prophet, the Apostles and the Elders, wbo went to the polls with many of their Wives and concubines, had a vast advantage. The Gentile was completely “overwhelmed by superior numbers,” However, the Gentile claims the seat in Congress, and he gives his reasons. There is one noticeable difference between the two rival candi dates, and that 1s this—that @aptain Hooper re- ceived his title of captain on account of having commanded a company in the Mormon army which sought to defy the authority of the United States, and General Maxwell received his tile of general on account of his signal services in command of a brigade whieh fought for the honor of his country. Hooper has lost little save his hair, but Maxwell lost his leg in batue and bears on his body the marks of other wounds, Yet Hooper isa saint and Maxwell ts a Sinner. Maxwell is here to contest the seat with Hooper, He appeared beiore the Committee on Elections of the House of Representatives on Satur- day, and presented a statement of his case. The matter wall ceme up again on Tuesday on a motion of Maxwell to reconsider the action of the commit tee, which decided to give Houper sixty days to take testimony io favor of himself. The following 1s Maxwell’s stirring story:— That on tue first day of August, 1870, there was heid an election in Utah Territory for Delegate in Congress; that J was regularly nomiated as the Gentile candidate, and received every legal vote cast in Utah Territory for said Delegate; that the number of votes so received was 1,093; that Wil- liain H. Hooper was the regularly appointed Dele- gate for the priesthood of tue ‘Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,” so called, of Utah— a rebellious, law-defying church organization exist- ing in Utah, whose ovject 1s to destroy this govern- menut and butid up a theocratic monarchy, and whose members pretend to owe no allegiance and give none to any government, person or thing, ex- cept their priesthood, which centres in one Brigham Young, ‘Prophet, seer and Revelator,” whose power over his subjects is uulimited tus side of the grave; Unat upon the certain pains and penalties of death in some cases, and in ali — being deprived of employment and ostracised f; Were and driven from their homes, the imhabdi of (tab, with the exception of the Gentiles and apostates, irrespective Oi SeX, age or citzenship, were by the priesthood commanded, aud, through fear and ures; dia cist their votes for “Elder?
