The Three Rules Eliminated from the Treaty of ‘Washington—What Is Feared from Their Operation—Cabinet Defence of the Tribunal Conclusion—Disraeli’s Idea. TELEGRAM TO ThE KEW YORK HERALY, Lonpon, March 21, 1873, In the House of Commons this evening the Right: Hon. Gathorne Hardy moved an address to the Crown, praying that the government be in- structed to dissent from the three international rules adopted by the Court of Arbitration at Geneva. Mr. Hardy, in the course of an able speech in support of his motion, declared that in making it he had no party ebject in view, nor did he intend to cast the slightest imputation on the fairness of the arbitrators. Tne disclaimer was received with cheers, Right Hon. Mr. Forster opposed the motion, because it practically called fer a vote of censure on the arbitrators whe adopted the rules. These rules affected the United States as much as they did England, No other nation was interested, If England objects to them now it will appear as if we were smarting under the sense of having to pay the compensation awarded, and united action of America and England hereafter, in case of war with or between other Pow Would be impos- sible, Mr. Vernon Harcourt spoke strongly in favor of the motion. He declared that the rules never held water. The best thing possible to do was to re- qnest the United States government to withdraw them and substitute others which, in the event of war, would not make neutrality intolerable. Mr. William Rathbone, member fer Liverpool, Was opposed to disturbing the decision of the Geneva Board. He argued that the rules only re- quired England to enforce her own laws, Ii they were repealed England’s commerce would be ruined forever in the very next war. He hoped the House would not reverse the government's just and statesmaniike policy. Mr. Gregory, a conservative, sharply criticised the action of the Geneva Board in imposing dan- gerous liabilities on neutrals, Mr. Samuel Laing spoke against the motion. Sir Stafford Nortncote was disposed to favor it. He asked whether the government really accepted the ideas involved in these rules; if it did they ought to be made law. The Attorney General, Sir J. Duke Coleridge, asked whether it was wise and dignified to pass such an opinion as the right honorable gentieman’s address indirectly conveyed upon the conduct of the arbitrators whom the country through Parlia- Ment had thanked for their services. He contin- ued:—“We must submit to the award made at Ge- neva. We had better hold our tongues and pay the money.” He coniessed that it would be impossi- ble to submit the rules to other Powers for adop- tion without a distinct statement of the extent to which England consents to be bound thereby. Mr. Disraeli wag giad that the government in- tended to come to some understanding with that of the United States in regard to these rules. He hoped they weuld do so speedily, and then the two governments could jointly lay the rules before the other Powers for their consideration. Mr. Gladstone concurred in the view of the sub- Ject taken by Mr. Disraeli. He believed the rules would lose their force if England alone submitted them to the Powers, The governments opinion was unchanged, and he assured the House that the matter had not and would not be neglected, The motion was then withdrawn and the debate ended, The Three Article: icriminated by the English Opposition. ‘The Geneva Court of Arbitration, after reciting &@ formidable and technical preface, sets forth the principle by which it was governed in concluding the Alabama claims award, in tne’ following words:— Whereas, having rd to the fourth and sev- enth articies of the Bal Pas the arbitrators are Lace under the terms of the said sixth article, the matters submitted to them to be plies bythe three rules therein specified and A dose principies of international law not incon- tent therewith as the arbitrators shall deter- mine to have been applicable to the case.’ WHAT THR TREATY OF WASHINGTON SAYS, ‘The sixth article of the Treaty of Washington reads as follows :— An. 6.—In deciding the matters submitted to the arbi- nen eh lave ar be sa"apon bya the fellow! ‘thi incot rewith as arbitrators shall determine to have pose, Gg a ieee to the case:—Rules—A eee jovern- ment bor first, ou C4 b=! au vent the fi eting out, Ding, within KH abe ground ‘wo $0 of nny y rene whl Swat ich iar ‘on war aloes weet, with wt which it fost ft peacey aa ‘use fike diligence. to. prevent. tho departure ta jurisdiction of any vessel intended to cruise or to on war as above, such vessel having ing bese spec! adapted, in in whole or pare, wins thin such Jurisdiction, to wari mit oF suffer either delligeren at to make se of iis ports or waters ae the ot “ihe re Por sugmentation or arms or the recrui it cise iy a ence in its and, y Prevent, an yo Ng | mel tt a ee or) coramman her High Commissioners and Balen Ta’ com tare that Her Spe overnment eunnet amsent to the fore. oing rules as a statement of te of international few thick ae in. ont at time ‘4 2 the claims rove, : goverement.tn order to evince tesdentre of streartntes the frien: lations between the two countries and oft aking raiveastory provision fu m for ture, agrees ‘that, in dec! the questions between the two countries arising ont of itrators anu that Her Majesty's act upon the i th high contract to Knowledge of other maritigie Powers and to invite them to accede to them.

Governor Dixand the State Comptroller Like the Charter Amendments—The Committee Tired of the Bill—Comptrol- ler Green Again to Figure Up—The Senate Committee on Erle. ALBANY, March 21, 1873, The charter has not yet ceased to be the sensa- tion of the day. Governor Dix to-day inquired jast what was the status oftho present twenty- seventh section (recently the twenty-fifth), and, on being enlightened as to its provisions, said that it was @ great improvement on the old section. He said nothing as to the merits or demerits of the amended charter a8 a whole. The State Comptroller iso expressed approba- tion at the changes in the section. On the other hand, Senator Perry has received de- spatches from citizens in New-York declaring that everybody is madder than before, and not a‘mem- ber ef the committee seems entirely pleased with the amendment. The committeemen are, how- ever, utterly worn out and glad enough to have ended their labors even in this unsatisfactory way. As anevidence of the inane condition of mind to which such continuous charter doses have reduced them, Woodin, who hails from the Twenty-fifth dis. trict, is said to refer to himself hi habitually now as “the Senator from the Twenty-fifth eer.

OALDWELL'S OASE IN THE SENATE. Plorida Whistling for 90,000 Acres of Land. TAKING ISSUE WITH THE TREASURY. Collector Casey’s Appointment Under Considera- tion—Nominations and Confirma- tions of Officials. WasHINaTon, March 21, 1873, The Charges Against Senator Eu Casserly, of California. He is an oficial of more than Roman fortitude, not to say virtue, that can afford, in the light of recent events, to affect disregard of public sentl- ment and defy charges ‘of political and official dishonesty coming up from the people and finding Voice in these despatches, This majestic rote is now assumed by Senator Casserly. It has been an- nounced that the senior Senator from (al fornia. ‘will take no notice of the charges made against him to the effect that his election to the Senate was secured by the Bank of California, having made it a rule of hus life,” he Says, ‘not to notice such attacks,” The transia- tion of this, it is alleged, is that Mr. Casserly is inspired by the confidence of intrenchment behind ®@ financial fortress, impregnable to attack even from the august Senate of the United States, to wit, the Bank of California, There can be no doubt that Mr. Casserly, as well as his colleague, Mr. Sargent, on the principle that there no poll- tics in business, find their mutual reason of being in the exigent interests of this monetary Cotos- sus of the Pacific coast. There has been from the beginning, among the masses of that State, a moral conviction that Mr. Casserly was the ambassador of the Bank of California near the national seat of government, and that Sargent, otherwise known as “EfMigy’’ of that ilk, was also created Senator by the same potential voice, to supplement Casserly’s power and hold up his hands in the cause of his omnipotent creators and mas- ters. Mr. Casserly’s disregard of the forthcoming Memorial certainly does not procecd from an indifference to the declarations of the press, or the allegations of @ large portion of his constituency, but is, it is satd, deeply based in his confidence in the potency of the aggregated capital and overmastering in- fuence of the nabobs of the Bank of California, men like D. O. Mills, W. P. Ralston, Eugene Kelley, Barron & Co., and B, F. Hastings and others, who have compassed the money power of the whole coast in their gmpe and whose influence, ever exerted and never loosened, ramiffes to the small- est business relations and the remotest localities of the Golden State. To those knowing to the facts the truth of the syllogism is apparent that whoever might, could or would be elected United States Senator from Cslifornis, could not be chosen in opposition to the will of the Bank of California, and, therefore, Mr. Casserly, who was elected four years ago to succeed John Conness, owes his success to its intervention, and its preference of him is equally due to his unre- mitting allegiance and subserviency in and out of season. A power that can secure the nomination of so essential a member of the Executive Cabinet a8 an Attorney General will find little dimcuity in returning the man it pleases to the Senate from it sown bailiwick. These charges, which were first made in pamphiet form immediately after Mr. Casserly’s election and substantiated: on his own authority by Volney E. How- ard, an opponent of Mr. Casserly, are nob the vague suspicions of a few or the vindicative givings out of Mr. Casserly’s personal opponents. They are the moral conviction of the whole people of California. Mr. Casserly, as a newspaper man, has certainly not that imperial indifference to the Voice of the press which he ts said to profess. His sense of security lies in another direction. He believes, and has some reason for his faith, that the power that created him a Senator is equally Potential in the suppression of an investigation in the Senate, by the same token that it killed off an. incipient inquiry in the State Legislature: that elected him as soon as broached by auriferous dy- namics. There has been no mitigation of that popular decree in California that declared Mr. Casserly the creation of the great bank- ing corporation four years ago, but at that fume investigations were not the fasbion and that. Mohammedan fatalism, “What shall be, will be,’ was the rule, So Mr. Casserly has retained his seat for four years without interference from the People. But, encouraged by the possible and prob- able event of the Caldwell investigation, the me- morial, with the body of charges and allegations, ‘was prepared, and on that the Senate will be con- strained to take some action, should Mr..Casserly demand an investigation in the premises, or should he, with magnificent contempt above the compre- hension of our poor human nature, be oblivious to the existence of the many-voiced populace; and serenely Confident in the omnipotence of the Bank of California, serve out the fag end of his term with the charges resting upon him and tarnishing bis Senatorial fame. The Debate on the Caldwell Case C tinued—Zachk Chandler Growling at Morton. ‘The Caldwell debate occupied the greater part of the day in the Senate without any indication. as to. its mit. Senator Chandler prognosticated that the early part of next week would seg the final disposal of the case. Senator Ferry, from Cen- necticut, offered am amendment to expel Cald- well, which will come up in case the Morton reso- lution should fail. Senator Frelinghuysen. made & comparatively short and very sen- sible speech, opposing Morton’s resolution, but stigmatizing Caldwell’s conduct very severely. After him Senator Morrill, from Maine, made one of the finest speeches of the session. With a dignity approaching to grandeur he drew a terrible but true picture of the political demor: izauon in Kansas. He brushed away the vain sophistry of Conkling’s argument in favor of Cald- well like s0 muck cobweb, and denounced with unsparing severity the heinous offence of the Kan- sas corruptionist. In conclusion he announced his imtention to vote for Morton’s resolution to unseat Caldwell. Stewart followed and rehashed the weak platitudes uttered by the previous speak- ers in favor of Caldwell, There was, however, very ttle attention paid te him, and when he concluded the Senate went into exceutive session on the nominations, Chandler ia not contented when he hears Morton denouncing Caldwell for having used money to secure his election to the Senate, and he haw reason to be. indignant. Who knows #o welkas the chairman of the Congressional Re- publican Committee haw much hard cash this same Senator Morton made an earnest appesifor to be sent into Indians to aid in securing his own re-eleo- tion? Yet Morton prates about the purity of Senato- rial elections, aad Chandler sits grimly and listens. ‘What if he, some fine day, can no longer bold his peace, but hauls Morton over the coals? Florida’s Ninety Thousand Acres of Ag- ricultural College Fund. -Facts recently developed show some very ques- ‘tionable transactions relative to the disposal of the Florida Agricultural College scrip, amounting to ninety thousand acres: It seems that the scrip ‘was delivered by the Interior Department in Jan- uary last to Gleason F. Lewis, of Ohio, on an order of ex-Lieutenant Governor Bloxham, of Florida, clatming to be lawfully empowered: by the coliege for that purpose, Lewis has the scrip, but the State has received no money. The record in the Interior Department shows a@ very singular con- tract between Bloxham and Lewis. The scrip has not been formally aasiened to Lewis by the college | trastecs, yet Lewis holds tne serip vy aetivery. Tt is alleged that the State ts lable to lose all benefit from the scrtp by this transaction, and that neither Bloxham bad legal authority to dispose of tt nor had the Department the right to deliver & to sny Person except the party apecified in the act of Congress. The matter has been referred to the Attorney General for investigation. Pennsylvania's Warwick Wisely Silent, Cameron intended yesterday to have pitched into Hamilton, of Maryland, fer some recent criticisms on the recent election of Senator in Pennsylvania, but he slept over it and wisely decided to-day te hold his peace. Taking Issue with the Treasury Depart- ment. Mr. Wallace P. Groom, of New York, to-day de- manded payment, at the United States Treasury, of a one hundred dollar legal tender note in specie, or an interest bearing bond, or anything receivable for customs duties, and, payment being refused in either of these methods, he purposes having the greenback formally protested to-morrow, his main objects being to publicly attack the existing prac- tice of purchasing tive-twenty bonds which are not yet due with over due greenbacks, and to illus- trate the alleged need of providing government bonds that shall be interchangeable with green- backs at the option of holders. The Nomination of Collector Casey Under Consideration. Collector Casey's name was brought up to-day In executive session and went over under an objec- tion. With the exception of West and a few dis- contented republicans the only opposition will come from those republicans who want offices for riends, and who hope that by affecting opposition they can induce the President to buy them off by granting their requests, Appointments by the Secretary of the Interior, The Secretary of the Interior to-day appointed Congressman J. P. C. Shanks, of Indiana, Charlies Marsh, of Nevada City, Cal., and Agent J. L. Burch- ard, of the Round Valley Indian Reservation, Cal., to be commissioners, under a recent act of Con- gress, to appraise settlers’ improvements on the Round Valley Reservation, and report where its Northern boundary should be located.
