Chureh depends more on the character of its Isy members than is generally supposed, if not more than upon its ministers, and it ex- horts church members to do their duty and not rely too entirely upon the work of the pastor. The Catholic Review intimates that “the Archbishop of Canterbury never opens his mouth but he puts his foot into it,” and alludes to his recent assertion that Protestant Christianity in England is in danger of con- version to paganism, from heathen strangers in her cities, and at the same time asking Money to send like weak-kneed Christians into heathen lands, where they are sure to be ‘wooed to their eternal damnation. ‘The Christian at Work encourages perseve- vance in well doing, saying ‘delay is not denial;"’ that our duty is to sow the good seed, and the Allwise, in His good time, will fructify it. The Tablet has a vigorous attack upon the so-called “Old Catholics,’ whom it plainly calls heretics, and prophesies that the Pyotest- antsects will not, in the long run, derive much comfort from them. It cautions the wife of Father Hyacinthe that the man who, at his pleasure, forswore his vows to the Church, may find it convenient in time to forget his latest vow as she grows old. ‘Tho Liberal Christian treats fear as an ele- ment of religion, recognizing its use, yet depending more on the development of con- science than on inducing terror as a stimulant to religious excellence, Goop News rrom Taz Lowzr Bay.—The Spanish war steamer Numancia, amply coaled and provisioned, and crew all well, set sail yesterday for Cadiz.

Thanks to a mer- cifal Providence, we have been very fortunate this season in our exemption from pestilential diseases. Tae Frencu Loan m Bartise Inptu.—The project for the new Treasury loan of the French Republic has met with unprecedented success in the great cities of British India. The Cal- cutta Englishman of the 6th of August pub- lishes the following announcement: —‘“Up- ‘wards of ninety lacs of rupees were sub- scribed in Bombay to the French foan, and about six lacs in Calcutta’ —that is, Bom- bay has subscribed $63,000,000, and Calcutta $4,200,000 in American gold dollars to the grand experiment which the French people are mow making for the sustainment of democratic self-government and equal political rights in Europe. ‘Tae Srraicut-Ovr Democrats of Philadel- phia have agreed to postpone the nomination of a third party Presidential electoral ticket until after the Pennsylvania October election, which most probably means the indefinite postponement of this third party.

TELEGRAMS TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. The following special despatch to the Hezzatp has been received from our corre- spondent in Geneva, by way of London:— Gxneva, Sept. 13, 1872. The Court of Arbitration appointed for the settlement of the Alabama claims case between Great Britain and the United States declines to admit the principle contended for by the American counsel in the proposition that Eng- land is responsible in general for the escape of tue Anglo-American rebel cruisers from her ports, on the ground of a non-exercise of due diligence, or that there was any disposition evinced by the English authorities to connive at a general infraction of the Queen’s neu- trality during the moments of the escape of the vessels. Th Court then decides, next afterwards, that in the'special cases of certain cruisers submitted by the Americans there was such want of due diligence as makes England liable for their particular acts. The Court of Arbitration rules out from the record, both of statement and of proceeding, the case of the privateer Georgia, and also all matter which has reference to the cruise of the Shenandoah before reaching Melbourne, holding the last-named vessel liable only for the capture of the American whaling ships which have been already named in the course of the argument. The damages award is three and a quarter millions of pounds sterling, or sixteen mil- lions, two hundred and fifty thousand Ameri- can dollars in gold, one-half of the account footed up for the losses sustained by the Ala- bama. The judgment as signed by all the arbi- trators, with the exception of Sir Alexander Cockburn, Lord Chief Justice of England, who gives a lengthy dissenting opinion, ac- cepting the ruling of the Court in the case of the Alabama, but arguing that in the case of the other ships there is no ground for any award against England, whose governmental courset hroughout from the first occasion of the premises was in accordance with international law and consistent with her neutral obligation, consistent even with the three rules of the Treaty of Washington. bi The above recapitulation of facts presents the main points of the Geneva Tribunal deci- sion in the Alabama claims case as it will be orally delivered and given by the President on Saturday, the 14th inst., in open Court, atthe council room in this city. The Decision. Geneva, Sept. 14, 1872. The decision of the Alabama Claims Arbi- tration Tribunal in award of the settlement of the case between Great Britain and the United States, delivered to-day in the council room in this city, begins with a recital, in formal, tech- nical language, of the terms of the Treaty of Washington; recites the names and titles of the arbitrators and agents appointed by the arbitrating governments; sets forth the facts of the assemblage of the Court in Geneva, the exchange and verification of the powers of its powers apd the presentation of tha natianal English and American cases by the agents and counsel. JUDICIAL DECLARATION ON FACTS ACCEPTED, Having concluded this legal and judicial preface the Court decision continues to de- clare, verbatim, as follows:—The Tribunal, having fully taken into consideration the treaty, the cases, the counter cases, docu- ments, evidence, arguments and all commu- nications which have been made, and having impartially and carefully examined the same, has arrived at a decision, and presents, as fol- lows, its THE AWARD AND THE BASES OF THE AWARD. Whereas, having regard to the sixth and seventh articles of the Treaty of Washing- ton, th> arbitrators are bound, by the terms of the seventh article, in deciding the matters submitted to them, to be governed by three rules therein specified, and by such principles of international law are not inconsistent therewith, as the arbitrators shall determine applicable to the case. THE SIXTH ARTICLE of the Treaty of Washington reads thus :— ARTICLE 6.—In deciding the matters submitted to the arbitrators they shall be governed by the following three rules, which are agreed upop by the high contracting parties as rules to be en ag applicable to the case, and by such principles of international law not inconsistent therewith as the arbitrators shall determine to have been ap- Plicable to the case:—Rules.—A neutral govern- ment is bound—First—To use due diligence to pre- vent the fitting out, arming or equipping, within its jurisdiction, of any vessel which it has reason- able ground to believe is intended to cruise or to carry on war against a Power with which it is at peace; and also to use like diligence to prevent the departure from its jurisdiction of any vessel in- tended to cruise or to carry on war as above, such vessel having been specially adapted, in whole or in part, within such jurisdiction, to warlike use. Secondly—Not to permit or suffer either belligerent to make use of its ports or waters as the base of naval operations against the other, or for the purpose of the re- newal or augmentation of military supplies or arms, or the recruitment of men. Thirdly, to ex- ercise due diligence in its own ports and waters, and, as to all persons within its jurisdiction, to prevent any violation of the foregoing obligations and duties. Her Britannic Majesty has commanded her High Commissioners and Plenipotentiaries to declare that Her Majesty's government cannot assent to the foregoing rules as a statement of principles of international law which were in force at the time when the claims mentioned in article 1 arose; but that Her Majesty’s government, in order to evince its desire of strengthening the friendly relations between the two countries and of making satisfactory provision for the future, agrees that, in deciding the questions between the two countries arising out of those claims, the arbi- trators should assume that Her Majesty’s govern- ment had undertaken to act upon the principles set forth in these rules, And the high contracting parties agree to observe these rules as between themselves in future, and to bring them to the knowledge of other maritime Powers and to invite them to accede to them. THE SEVENTH ARTICLE of the Treaty of Washington reads thus: — ARTICLE 7.—The decision of the tribunal shall, if Possible, be made within three months from the close of the argument on both sides. It shall be made in writing and dated, and shali be signed by the arbitrators who may assent to it. The sald tri- bunal shall first determine as to each vessel separately whether Great Britain has, by any act or omission, failed to fulfll any of the duties set forth in the foregoing three rules, or recognized by the principles of international law not inconsistent with such rules, and shall certify such fact as to each of the said vessels. In case the tribunal find that Great Britain has fatled to fulfll any duty or duties as aforesaid, it may, if it think proper, pro- ceed to award a sum in gross to be paid by Great Britain to the United States for all the claims re- ferred to 11; and in such case the gross sm so awarded shall be paid in coin by the government of Great Britain to the government of the United States at Washington within twelve months after the date of the award. The award shall be in du- plicate, one copy whereof shall be delivered to the agent of Great Britain for his government, and the other copy shall bé delivered to the agent of the United States for his government. DUE DILIGENCE. Whereas the due diligence referred to in the first and third of said rules should be exer- cised by neutral governments in exact propor- tion to the risks to which either one of the bel- ligerents may be exposed by failure to fulfill the obligations of neutrality on their part. Whereas the circumstances out of which the facts the subject matter of the present controversy arose were of a nature to call for the exercise on the part of Her Majesty's gov- ernment of all possible solicitude for the ob- servance of the rights and duties involved in Her Majesty’s proclamation of neutrality issued on the thirteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-one. THE CONFEDERATE NAVAL COMMISSIONS, Whereas the effects of a violation of neu- trality, committed by means of the construc- tion, equipment and armament of a vessel, are not done away with by any commission which the government of the belligerent power benefited by the violation of neutrality may afterwards grant that vessel, and the ultimate step by which the offence is completed cannot be admitted as a ground for the absolution of the offender, nor can the consummation of his fraud become the means of establishing his innocence. ‘ SHELTER AND AID IN NEUTRAL PORTS. Whereas the privilege of exterritoriality ac- corded to vessels of war is admitted into the law of nations, not as an absolute right, but as founded on a principle of courtesy and mutual deference, and, therefore, can never be appealed to for justification of acts done in violation of neutrality. And whereas the absence of previous legislative rule cannot be regarded as a failure in the law of nations, in @ case in which the vessel carries its own con- demnation. Whereas, in order to impart to supplies of coal a character inconsistent with the second tule, prohibiting the use of neutral ports and waters as bases of operations, it is necessary that such supplies be connected with special circumstances of time, person and place. CASE OF THE ALABAMA, And whereas, with respect to the vesgel called the Alabama. it clearly resulta frgpq all the facts relative to her construction in the | So far as relates to the Georgia, Sumter, port of Liverpool, her equipment and arma- ment in the vicinity of Terceira, through the agency of other vessels despatched from Great Britain for that purpose, that the British gov- ernment failed to use due diligence in the per- formance of its neutral obligations, and, not- withstanding official representations made by agents of the United States during the construc- tion of the said ship, omitted to take effective measures for its prevention, and that orders for her detention, which the British govern- ment did finally give, were issued so late that the executing of the said orders was not practicable; and whereas, after the escape of that vessel, tho measures which were taken for her pur- suit and arrest were so imperfect as to lead to no result, and therefore cannot be con- sidered as a sufficient release for Great Britain from the responsibility she incurred. Whereas, despite the violations of neutrality thus committed, the same vessel was, on several occasions, freely admitted to the ports of colonies of Groat Britain instead of being proceeded against, as she ought to have been, in any and every port under British jurisdic- tion where she might have been found. VOTE ON ENGLAND'S PLEA IN JUSTIFICATION. And whereas the government of England cannot justify itself for its failure in due dili- gence on the plea of the insufficiency of the legal means of action it possessed. Four of the arbitrators, for the reasons above assigned, and the fifth, Lord Chief Justice Cockburn, for reasons separately assigned by him, are of opinion that Great Britain has in this case failed by omission to fulfil the duties pre- scribed in the first and third rules established by the Treaty of Washington. THE OASE OF THE FLORIDA. And whereas, with respect to the Florida, it results, from all the facts, that the English authorities failed to take measures adequate to prevent a violation of neutrality, notwith- standing the representations of the agents of the United States to the effect that Her Majesty's government failed to use due dili- gence to fulfil its duties of neutrality, It likewise results from the facts which have been presented relative to the stay of tho Oreto at Nassau, New Providence, to her issue thence, her enlistment of men, her supplies, and her armament, with the co- operation of the British vessel Prince Alfred, in Green Bay, that there was negligence on the part of the British Colonial authorities. Whereas, notwithstanding the violation of neutrality which Great Britain committed in the case of the Oreto, the same vessel ata later date called the Florida, was on several occasions freely admitted to British ports. And, whereas the judicial acquittal of the Oreto at Nassau, New Providence, cannot re- lieve Great Britain from the responsibility in- ourred under the principles of international law, nor can the fact of the entry of the Florida into the Confederate port of Mobile, and her stay there during a period of four months, extinguish the responsibility pre- viously incurred by Great Britain; ENGLAND'S FAILURE IN NEUTRAL DUTY. For these reasons the Tribunal of Arbitra- tion, by a majority of four voices to one, is of opinion that Great Britain has in this case failed by her omission to fulfil the duties pre- scribed in the first, second and third rules established in Article Six of the Treaty of Washington. THE CASE OF THE SHENANDOAH. Whereas, with respect to the case of the Shenandoah, it results from the facts placed before the Court that in the departure from the port of London of the Sea King, and her subsequent transformation into a cruiser near Madeira, the English gov- ernment is not: chargeable with any failure, down to that date, in due diligence to fulfil the duties of neutrality; but whereas it results from the facts connected with the stay of the Shenandoah at Melbourne, and especially by the augmentation which England admits to have been clandestinely effected in her force of men by enlistments at that port that there was negligence on the part of the British au- thorities at that place; For these reasons the Tribunal of Arbi- tration is unanimously of opinion that England has not failed by the act of omission to fulfil the duties prescribed by three rules of the Treaty of Wash- ington, or in the observance of the principles of international law with respect to the Shen- andoah during a period of time anterior to her entry into the port of Melbourne, and, by a ma- jority of three to two.votes the tribunal decides that Great Britain has failed in her duties as prescribed in the second and third rules of the treaty in the case of the same vessel—the Shenandoah—from and after her entry into Hobson's Bay, and is, therefore, responsible for the acts of that vessel after her departure from Melbourne on the 18th day of February, in the year 1865. CASES OF THE TUSCALOOSA AND OTHER -“‘TEND- Ens.” As relates to the cases of the Tuscaloosa, the Clarence and Tacony, the aiders or tenders to the Alabama and Florida, the Court is unani- mously of opinion that these accessories must follow the lot of their principals, and submit to the same decision. So far as relates to the case of the privateer Retribution, the tribunal, by a majority of three to two.voices, is of opinion that Englan/) has not failed to full her duties qndet, ‘the rules Nashville, Tallahassee and Chickamagua, the Court is unanimously of opinion that Great Britain has not failed to fulfil the duties pre- scribed under the three rules of the treaty or by international lew. BULED OUT OF COURT. The Court is of opinion that the Sallie, Jeff. Davis, Music, Boston and Joy are excluded from consideration for want of evidence. ‘THE FORM OF INDEMNITY CHARGES. And whereas, so far as relates to the par- ticular form of indemnity claimed’ by the United States for costs incurred in the pur- suit of the cruisers, it is not, in the: judgment of the tribunal, properly distinguishable from the general expenses of war. Therefore, the Court is of opinion, by a majority of three to two, that there is no ground for awarding any sum by way of indemnity under this head. PROSPECTIVE INJURIES. Whereas prospective injuries cannot properly be made subject for compensation, inasmuch as they depends in nature on future and uncertain contingencies, the tribunal is unanimously of opinion that*there is no ground for award under this head, ESTIMATING THE DAMAGES, Whereas, in order to arrive at an equitable compensation for damages sustained, it is ne- cessary to set aside all double claims for the same lossq and all claims for gross freight so far as it exceeds net freight. INTEREST ON THE AMOUNT. And whereas it is just and reasonable to allow interest at a reasonable rate. THE FINAL AWARD. Whereas, in accordance with tho spirit and letter of the Treaty of Washington, it is prefer- able to adopt the form of adjudication of a sum in gross rather than refer the subject of compensation for further discussion and delib- eration to the Board of Assessors provided in article 10 of the Treaty of Washington, the Tnbunal of Arbitration—using the authority 9 ee monsly, only in the case of one vessel. This’ is plain evidence of belief im the genuineness’ of our neutrality during the war in the United States, and disproves the flagrantly unjust ac- cusations of unfriendliness in the American case presented at Geneva. We cheerfully con- sent to pay the sum awarded, as tending to obviate similar difficulties in the future. THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON. Official Statements from Geneva—The Amount of © the Award. Wasurnoton, Sept. 14, 1872. The aggregate award in the Alabama case, as stated in the despatah received at the State Department to-day from Hon. J. C.

Mr. Davis states that the text. of the award of the arbitrators at Geneva has been publicly announced there, Tho United States receive thé gross sum of fifteen and one half millions of dollars ($15,500,000) for losses sustained by the acts of the Alabama, of the Florida, and of the Shenandoah after leaving Melbourne. It will be recollected that by the terms of the treaty the amount is payable in gold at Washington within one year from the date of: the award. MYSTIO PARK MEETING.
