The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele, and even bad books. With the tome of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctanc e were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled .‘ Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits,- fully establish their . claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in prxof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to Ishich flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhoetl," is one of the (ew books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim hi tke character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Magnet.. _ _ _ DIRECTORS. VISCOUNT INGESTRE, M.P. LORD PETRE. HENRY A. AGLIONBY, Esq., M.P.

The Court of Directors of the New Zealand Company hereby give notice, that a limited number of allotments of pre liminary Lands, each of which consists of three sections, viz. one acre of Town Land, fifty acres of Suburban Land, and olie hunched and fifty acres of Country Land, ace still open for Sale in their second Settlement of Nelson. The price of each allotment is 3001. Indigo . Que;eitron Bark 1 1 7111 111 of 2. These allotments were unsold' when the general ballot for priority of choice was held on the 30th August last; never theless the numbers which represent them in the original Re gistry of applications were placed in the wheel with all the other numbers, and the unsold numbers were t raven promis cuously with those which had been previously disposed of; consequently to each of the unsold numbers definite rights of priority of choice (distinct in respect to each of,the sections above described) have been attached by the ballot. 3. Until further notice, any party, or his agent, attending at the New Zealand House on any Thursday at three o'clock, r.st., and producing the receipt of the Company's Bankers, Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smiths, for 3001., will be entitled to draw in the presence of the Court of Directors, from a wheel in which the registry numbers of all unsold allotments have beets deposited, with special precautions for their security and for the fairness of the proceeding. The register of the original ballot vv ill then show to the party draWing any number, to what rights of priority of choice he is entitled. 4. Applicants, therefore, will obtain preliminary allotments, on precisely the same terms, - with respect to price and the chances of priority of choice, as original purchasers. 5. A list of the registry numbers, with the rights of choice which were attached to each by the original ballot, may be seen at the New Zealand House, on application to the Secretary. 6. Present purchasers wilt be entitled to the same privileges, in respect to an allowance io► cabin passages (not exceeding 25 per cent. on the purchase money), as those who bought allot ments before the general ballot. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, same, nay most of' them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex • tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita• tinn in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set down by the every-day observer as the result of common eau.ses, sueh as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Consumption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opprobria of medi cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitti-d to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as any other class of ffections. We do not think we go too far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly moral a book.—Conservative Journal. We recommend the. work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral. as wel las physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will be most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in need of them.—Statc swan.

PRICE 5(1 CORRESPONDENCE RELATING TO THE DETEN TION OF AMERICAN VESSELS ON THE AFRI CAN COAST BY BRITISH ARMED CRUISERS. LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. STEVENSON. Foreign-office, Aug. 5, 1841. The undersigned. her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has received two notes, addressed to bins on the 13th of November, 1810, and on the Ist of March last, by Mr. Stevenson, Envoy Extraordinary strut Minister Pleni potentiary of the United States, convlaining of the starch and detention of the United States vessel Douglas, and 6f the treatment of her crew by Lieutenant Seagram, •'Of het Ma i jesty's,prig Termagant, employed on the coast of Africa in stressing,the slave trade. n 'these two cummttnieations from Mr. Stevenson it i s stated, that on the 21st of October, 1839, Lieutenant Seagram hoarded the I)cuglas while she was pursuing her voyage on the coast of Africa., examined the ship's papers and the passengers' passports, broke open the hatches, hauled down the American flag, and seized the vessel as a slaver; that he kept possession of her during eight days, namely, from the 21st of October, 1639, to the 29th of the same month ; that the officers and men of the Douglas became ill from their exposure to the sun, and that in consequence three of them died, and the Captain is still in bad health. And Mr. Stevenson expresses the con fident expectation of the President of the United States that her Majesty's Government will make prompt reraration for the conduct of Lieutenant Seagram in this case, and will take efficient means to prevent the recurrence of such abuses. The undersigned has, in reply, to state that, in pursuance of the wish expressed by Mr. Stevenson on the part of his Govern ment, a strict investigation has, by order of the Lords of the Admit alty, been made into the panic:Win of the case, and the result is as followsr. - • Lieutenant Seagram, commanding her Majesty's ship Ter magant, employed in suppressing the slave trade on the coast of Africa, had been apprised by the commanding officer of her Majesty's ships on that coast of an agreement entered into by that officer with Commander Paine, of the United States-navy, for searching and detaining ships found trading in slaves :under the United States flag; and Lieutenant Seagram having, on the 21st of October, 1839, met with the ship Douglas, carrying the flag of the Union, he boarded her, and made inquiries as to the voyage for which she was bound. Lieutenant Seagram was received on board the Douglas with great incivility, and a dis inclination was shown to reply to any questions relating to her voyage ; but he ascertained that she was bound to the River Brass, and he found on board of her seven Spaniards who were going t) that river where no trade but the slave trade is carried on. Lieutenant Seagram requested to see the papers of the Douglas ; but the Captain of the Douglas could p►oduce no Custom-house clearance, and had made an entrance on his log that, on leaving the liavannah, he could not procure one, and that he had returned to the harbour to obtain such a paper, but had left the harbour again without it. • This cir cumstance appeared suspicious to Lieutenant Seagram ; and on exanitning • tbe papers produced by the Captain of the Douglv, he found, that the Douglas was consigned to a well known slave-trader, Don Pablo Teisas, who was then on board of her, and to whoni the slaving vessels Asp and Lark, which had been recently condemned for slave trade, had been consigned. Lieutenant Seagram pressed for permission to examine the hold of the vessel, and the consignee gave him permission to examine her freight, because he conceived it was protected by the United States flag ; and, under the same impression, he acknowledged to Lieutenant Seagram that her cargo was Spa nish, and had been shipped as American solely for the purpose of avoiding seizure. The, hatches of the vessel having then been opened, and Lieutenant Seagram having proceeded to examine her, it was discovered that siseiras fitted out for the slave trade, with lea guers, hoops, and staves, a slave deck, in planks, and three complete slave coppers. Lieutenant - Seagram reports that, under these circumstances, he should have sent the Douglasto the United states to be de livered up to the authorities of that country, but that he had received orders from the commanding officer of her Majesty's vessels on the coast of Africa not to send any vessels to the United. States until he should have been informed what course the United States Government took as to the slave vessels Eagle and Clara, which had been sent to the United States by the commanding officer, with a view to assist the American Go vernment in preventing the abuse of the national flag of the . But Lieutenant Seagram, not having received any informa. tion on this point at 'he end of eight dais after the detention of the Douglas, thought it his duty then to release the. Doug las, instead of detaining her lon ger or sending her to the United Stales. Pied in believing that, instead of doing anything* wouLl be complained of by the Government of- the tnited States, they were furthering the views and forwarding the wishes o that Government. From the facts above stated there appears little doubt that, if the Douglas had been sent to tke United States, she would have been condemned for trading in slaves under the flag of the Union. And had she been tried by the Mixed Commission at Sierra Leone, the proofs that the slave-trading voyage on which she was engaged was in fact a Spanish enterprise, were strong enough to have warranted her condemnation in the British and Spanish Courts as a Spanish slaver. With respect to the assertion that three men died from the effects of exposure to the sun, in consequence of the deten tion. of the vessel, the undersigned has to state that it appears that the vessel remained on her own account, in the African seas two months after her detention by Lieutenant Seagram; and, as none of those men dLPd tritil After throe wft months ; there seems no reason to suppose that the death of the three men in question was occasioned by the detention of the vessel by Lieutenant Seagram. With respect to the statement that Lieutenant Seagram or dered the American flag to be hauled down, it is to be oberved that the master of the Douglas, in his protest declares, t hat lie himself, and'not Lieutenant Seagram, ordered the United ( States) flag to be hauled down. As to any of provisions or stores, it is stated by the American master that the English prize crew brought their provisions With them to the Douglas, and he does not even as sert that they consumed any provisions belonging to the Doug las, or that any of the stores of that vessel were lost. With respect to the allegation of the American master, that the prize crew had secreted one demijohn of rum, forming part of the cargo of the vessel, it seems probable that there is an era or in that allegation, because the hatches of the vessel were opened and closed again in the presence of Lieut. Seagram, and no complaint was made to that officer, either by the master or the consignee, that any loss or damage hadbeen done to the cargo. Indeed, the master, on resuming the charge of his vessel, de clared to Lieut. Seagram that he had no complaint to make. From the foregoing statement it will appear that the visit, the search, and the detention of the Douglas by Lieut. Seagram took place under a full belief on the part of that officer that he was pursuing a course which would be approved by the Go vernment of the United States ; and in his conduct toward the crew•of the vessel, he appears scrupulously to have avoided any act which would justly give cause of offence to a friendly Power. The undersigned has, therefore, to express the confident hope ,f her Majesty's Government that, upon consideration of the whole. case, the Government of the United States will be of opinion that, although the act of Lieutenant Seagram in detaining a United States slave-trading vessel was, in the abstract, irregular, yet the impression under which he did it, and the motives which prompted' him to do it, exempt him from any just blame. But the undersigned cannot refrain from requesting Mr. Stevenson to draw the serious attention of the Government of the United States to this case, which affords a striking example of the manner in which the Vessels and flag of the United States are employed by Spanish, Portuguese, and Brazilian criminals, to protect their piratical. undertakings, in utter con tempt of the laws of the Union, and in open defiance of the Federal Government. The undersigned avails himself of this occasion to renew to Mr. Stevenson the assurance of his dtstinguish4tintsideration. A. Stevenson, Esq., &c. &c. &c. PALMERSTON. LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. STEVENSON. Foreign-office, Aug. 5, 1841. The undersigned, her Britannic Majesty's secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has received the note which Mr. Stevenson. Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the United States of America, addressed to him on the 27th of February last, complaining that the schooner lago, bearing the United States flag, and commanded by Mr. Adol phus Dupony, had been detained by her Majesty's brigantine Termagant, Lieutenant Seagram, and that the schooner Ilero, under the United States flag, and commanded by Mr. B. M'Connell, had been detained by her Majesty's brig Lynx. Mr. Stevenson complains, in the first place, that injury was done in these cases to the purposes of the voyage, and to the cargo and stores on board the vessels detained ; and he con. tends, in the second place, that her Majesty's naval officers had no excuse, and much less any justification, for detaining these vessels ; and he adds that it is wholly immaterial whether the vessels detained were equipped for or actually engaged in slave traffic or not. With regard to the allegation of damages done to the car goes of these vessels, the undersigned begs to remind Mr. Ste m,. lost was atop by - the cr e w of the lago whi le the master s v i e g n , : e o , t i n th t . h w a t t o h a e tt p i al tb er e s w ea h s i e ch of he the traz g m o i , t t t i e i d e .tootnheeytr,ir.iitiliecrh was absent on shore, and, it was not abstracted by the ciew of the detaining vessel. And it is fair to presume, that the chro nometer and the watch, which were a l so l os t on b oar d that were taken by the same pers ons w h o s t o l e th e money. r s \ith regard to the damag e sa id t o h ave b een done to the g vessel, were upon the Hero thatrotlur at searchinmgttheer,and he o e f a v c e g s u se ai l, ht th: h u . nder signed has requested th e B oar d o f A d m i ra l ty to cause inquiries to ae be sVeol, m Ste venson with the result. With respect to the justification which the British officers had for detaining these American vessels; with regard tb the detention of which Mr. Stevenson says there is "no shadow of pretence for exercising, much lessjustifying, the right of search or detention of vessels under the United States flag by vessels of her Majesty.'s navy,". the undersigned has to state that a formal agreement was entered into on the 11th of March, 1840, by the commanding officer of her Majesty's ships on the coast of Africa, and the officer commanding the vessels sent by the United States Government to suppress the slave trade of the United States on the African coast ; and by that agreement, those officers, for the purpose of carrying into execution the . " orders and .views of their respective Governments respecting the suppression of the slave trade, requested each other and agreed" to detain all vessels, under the United States flag, found to be fully equipped fur and en , gaged in the slave trade ; and it was agreed that such vessels ;hould eventually be handed over to the United States cruisers, if proved to be United States property, and to Bri tish cruisers if proved to be Spanish, Portuguese, Brazilian, or English property. The undersigned would, therefore, submit that the com manding officers of her Majesty's vessels had no reason to suppose that, when giving effect to this agreement by detain ing vessels bearing the United States flag and engaged in slave trade, they were doing a thing which would ha disagreeable to the Government of the United States. Such eases, however, cannot happen again, bacause positive orders were seat by the Admiralty, in Febru u•y last, to all her Majesty's (mixers employed for the suppression of the slave trade, riot again to detain or meddle with the United States vessels engaged in the slave trade. These orders have. seen sent by her Majesty's: Government with-great pain and regret, but as an act uuc by them to the rights of the United States. Her Majesty's Government, however, cannot bring tin in selves to believe that the Government at Washington can se riously and deliberately intend that the flag and vessels of the Union shall continue to be, as they now are, the shelter under which the malefactors of all countries perpetrate with impunity crimes which the laws- of the Union stigmatise as - piracy r.nd punish with death. But, unless the United States Government shall consent to make, with the other. Powers of Christendom, some agree merit of the nature of that which their naval officer on the coast of Africa spontaneously entered into with the British naval commander on that station, these abuses will not only continue - to exist, but will increase in magnitude - every day ; and the end will be that the slave trade will be carried ou cx •clusively under the shelter of the flag, and by the speciai pro tection of the Executive Government of that nation, whose legislature was among the first to pronounce the crime infa mous, and to affix to it the severest penalties. The undersigned avails himself of this occasion to renew to Mr. Stevenson the assurances of his distinguished consideration,- A. Stevenson, Esq., &c. l'A LIVE R STON. P. S. I return to you, according to your request, the .papers eut:_aud-in your note of the 27th of Fehr-nary last, on the subject of the lago. With respect to the hp, the undersigned has to observe that the vessel was fully equipped for a slave trader ; that the papers found on hoard of her were of a suspicious character ; that all her crew but two were Spanish. And her Majesty's Advocate-General, to whom the case was referred, has reported it to be his opinion that. the Commissioners at Sierra Leone would have been justified in proceeding to the adjudication of the vessel ; and that if the case hart been investigated by them sufficient proof would have been afforded that the vessel was in reality Spanish, and not American property, and that con sequently she was liable to condemnation. The undersigned trusts that the foregoing statement will show that there is good reason for doubting that any wilful damage was done to the, cargo of either of the two vessels in question by theerews of the detaining ships; and that, although it is indisputable that P.ritish cruisers have no right, as such, to search and detain v easels which are the property of citizens of'the United Stites,- even thOugh such vessels may evidently be engaged in slave t rade, yet in these cases the British naval officers acted in purl mance of a special agreement will a naval officer of the Unit , :d States; and they were, therefore, justi- MR. STEVENSON TO LORD PALMERSTON. 32, Upper Grosvenor-street, Aug. 9, 1841. My Lord—On my return to London,•aftera temporary ab-' tence of a few days, I found the two communications which your Lordship did me the honour to address to me, under the date of the 6th inst., in answer to my notes of the 13th of November, the 27th of February, and the Ist of March last, complaining of the seizure and detention of three American vessels, the Doulas, lago, and Hero, and the ill-treatment of their crews, by her Majesty's cruisers employed on. the African coast in suppressing the slave trade. Having, in my previous communications, said all that I deemed important on the subject of these repeated aggressions upon the vessels and commerce of the United States and the rights of their flag, I can have no inducement at this time to trouble, your Lordship with any further remarks ; and I shall, therefore, content myself with transmitting to my Govern ment, at the earliest day, copies of your Lordship's notes, with whorl it will rest to decide upon the Sufficiency of the explana tion which they contain in justification of the conduct of the commanders of her Majesty's brigs of war the Termagant and the Lynx. It is proper, however, that I should seize the earliest oppor tunity to acquaint your Lordship that, in relation to the agree ment which it is alleged was entered into between the com mandereof the British squadron on the African coast and the officer in command of the vessel sent by the Government of the United States to suppress the slave trade, allowing the mutual right of searching and d e t a i n i ng a ll B r iti s h and American vessels found trading in slaves, I have no other in formation than that communicated in your Lordship's notes, and have no reason to suppose that. stich authority had been confided by the American Government to any of its officers. ' I pray your Lordship to accept assurances atny distinguished consideration and respect. A. STEVENSON. • LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. STEVENSON. Foreign-office, Aug., 17, 1841. .; Viscount Palmerston presents his compliments to Mr. Stevenson, and with reference to Mr. Stevenson's note of the 9th instant, has the honour to . transmit here with, to Mr. Stevenson, a copy, of the agreement entered into between Captain Tucker, of her Majesty's sloop Wolve rine, and Lieut. Paine, of the United States ship of war Gram pus, which was referred to in the notes addressed by Viscount Pahnersten to Mr. Stevenson on the sth instant, on the sub ject of the detention of the vessels, the Douglas, the !ago, and Hero, by her Majesty's cruisers. A. Stevenson, Esq., &c. LORD PALI%JERSTON TO MR. STEVENSON, Foreign-office, Aug. 27, 1841. The undersigned, her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, his had under his ,consideration the note which Mr. Stevenson, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Ple. nipOtentiary of the United States, did him the honour to ad dress to him, under date of the 15th of May, 1840, complain ing of the detention of a brig under American colours, called the Mary, by her Majesty's ship Forester. In this note Mr. Ste - venson n , assuming the information . fur nished to the United States Government by Mr. Trist, their Consul at the Havannah, to he complete and correct, prefers a claim for indemnity to ;he owner of the Mary, and asks for the exemplary punishment of the commander of the Forester, and those concerned in the proceedings taken by that officer against the Mary, proceedings which, in Mr. Stevenson's opinion, seem to want nothing to give them the character of a most flagrant and daring outrage, and very little, if anything, to sink them into au et of open and direct piracy . , • 4 -lirt-trfthirsi gittfetig" "link the honour to inform Mr. Steven son that the more - particular information which has been fur nished to her Majesty's Government, as to this vessel, places the question in a very different light from that in which it has been presented to th.s Government ePthe. United Sratos; and the undersigned trusts that the following statement will satisty Mr. Stevenson that, although the vessel herself, being ill built, might not have been intended actually to convey negroes the coast of Africa, yet she was in reality the property of a Spanish slave-dealer, and was employed by him for the pur• poses of slave trade. The papers found on board this vessel by the commander of the Forester showed that, on the 24th of January, 1839, a bill of sale was prepared at the Hava.nnah by Mr. J. A. Smith, the Vice-Consul of the United States at that port, setting forth that a permahent American register (No. 48) had been granted to the brig Mary, of Philadelphia, on the 17th of June, 1837, and that the brig was at that time owned by Jossph Snowden, of Philadelphia, and was commanded by J. 11. Haven. Joseph J. Snowden, the original owner, then gave a power of attorney and substitution to Charles Snowden, who again nominated Pedro Manegat, the notorious slave dealer, but who was described in that document merely as a merchant at Ha vannah, to sell and transfer the Mary. Eight days afterwards Pedro Manegat professedly sold the Mary to a person named Pedro Sabate, of New Orleans, who, on the 2d of May, appointed as her master Charles Snowden, thessame person who, three months before, had named Pedro Manegat as his agent to sell the Mary; and on the 18th of.lune Pedro Sabate replaced Snowden, by appointing David Tomlin son to the command. • This Pedro Manegat, the pretended seller but real purchaser of the Mary, is the sanie indiVidual who, in like manner, owned the following nominally American vessels, namely, the Hyperion, which left the .Havannah in December, 1838, as an American vessel, and was afterwards condemned as the Spa nish schooner Isabel ; the schooner Hazard, .whiefi' was de tained and erroneously released in February, 1839, under cir cumstances similar to those which mark the case of the Mary; and the Octavia, also condemned as Spanish property; which last named vessel Pedro Manegat had only employed as he did the Mary, namely, to carry goods for the purchase of slaves to agents on the coast. The Spanish master, Thomas Escheverria, and a Spanish crew, were shipped on board the Mary as passengers; among them were several individuals who were recognised as having been formerly captured in slave•vessels, Escheverria himselt having been master of the Spanish schooner Norma, when that vessel was captured with 231 slaves on board. The ship's articles set forth that the crew was engaged to naviffate the Mary from the port of Havannah to the Gallium, or wherever else the master may direct. • In twoor three papers which the master David Tomlinson produced to prove his American citizenship, he is styled Pils B. Tomlimorty, and in the third P. B. Tomlinson, while in the log, enclosed in Mr. Stevenson's note, he is called Captain Thomason. The clearance and bills of lading show that the owners of the cargo were Blanco and Carvelho, Pedro Martinez and Co., Pedro Manogat, and Thomas Eseheverria, the Spanish captain, all well known slave traders ; and the consignees. Thomas Rodriguez Baron, Ignacio P. 8010, and Theodore Canot, of the Gallinas, long and well known to the naval officers employed in suppressing the slave trade on the coast as factors for the purchase and shipment Of slaves. Thus the papers produced to the Captain of the Forester, b\ Tomlinson, were of themselves sufficient to show that this was one of the then frequent cases in which the flaw of the United States had been fraudulently assumed; and all doubt was removed as to the real character of the undertaking in which the vessel nas employed, when, on farther search, there were found on board slave coppers, two bags of shackles,' large water leaguers, and a slave deck—the latter being noted as shipped under the denomination of five hundred feet of lumber. Under these circumstances, the undersigned is of opinion that the commander of her Majesty's ship Forester was fully justified in considering the Mary to be a Spanish vessel, and, consequently, in taking her before the British and Spanish Court ; and, accordingly, when the British Commissioners reported to her Majesty's Government that the Judges had refused to allow the Mary to be libelled in that Court, under the impression that the mere fact of her having the Ameri can flag hoisted should have protected her from visitation and search by a British cruiser, the British Commissioners -were told that there was, in the opinion of her Majesty's Government, reason to suppose that the Mary was a Spanish, and not an American vessel, and the Judges ought therefore to have allowed her to be libelled in the British and Spanish Court ; for that, although British ships of war are not authorised to visit and search American vessels on the high seas yet if a vessel which there is :rood reason to suppose is in reality Spanish property is captured and brought into a port in which a mixed .British and Spanish Court is sitting, the CommisSioners may properly investigate the case, and, upon sufficient proof being adduced of the Spanish character of the vessel, and of her having been guilty of a breach of the treaty between Great Britain and Spain for the suppression of the slave-trade, the Court may condemn her, notwithstanding that she was sailing under the American flag, and had Ame rican papers on board. With respect to the general question of the search of vessels under the American flag by British cruisers, the undersigned begs to refer Mr. Stevenson to his other note of this day's date relative to the case of the Susan, in which the under signed has fully, and he hopes satisfactorily, replied to the re presentation made by Mr. Stevenson on that subject. The undersigned begs to return to Mr. Stevenson the log kept by John Hutton, while acting as mate on board the Mary ; and avails himself of this occasion to renew to Mr. Steven son the assurances of his distinguished consideration. PALMERSTON. LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. STEVENSON. Foreign-office, Aug. 27, 1841. The undersigned, her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the note from Mr. Stevenson, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from the United States at this Court, dated the' 14th of April, 1840, on 'the subject of a complaint made by the American Government against the officer in com mand of her Majesty's bri g Grecian, for having boarded the American merchant ship usan, when off the light of Cape Frio, in the month of April, 1839. The undersigned begs leave to state to Mr. Stevenson, in reply to the remarks contained in his last note, that her Ma jesty's Govermnent do not pretend that her Majesty's naval officers have any right to search American merchantmen, met with in time of peace at sea, and if in some few cases such merchantmen have been searched when suspected of having beentengaged in the slave trade,'this has been done solely be cause the British officer who made search imagined that he was acting in conformity with the wishes of the United States Go vernment, in endeavouring to hand over to the United States /47 ../41'1'6{ ~~ }. riTENING SUN. r end aittion% fit the Man tu 4 alk ffitAridt — 1. 4 Pant violation of the laws of the Onion, Such things, however, will not happen again,lattetruse - Orders • ve been given which will prevent their recurretiee4 , . But there is au essential and fundamental difference heaven , ' ?' - 'arching a vessel and examining her papers to sip• whet hershe is legally provided with documents. entitling her to the protec tion of 4tly, country, and especially of the country 'whose t!agshe may have hoisted atilt! time. For though, by einanuat par lance, the nerd flag "is used to express the test of nationality, and though, according to that acceptation of the word, he; Majesty's Government admit tha , British cruisers are not en titled in time of peace to search merchant vessels sailing under the American flag, yet her Majesty's Government do not mean thereby to say that a merchantman can exempt. .himself from search by merely hoisting a piece of bunting with the Uni:ed States emblems and colours upon it; that which her Majesty's Government means is, that the rights of the United States flag exempt a vessel from search, , when that vessel is provided th papers entitling her to wear that fir, and proving h e r, to be Unileel States property, anti navigatteraccording to law. - But this tact cannot be ascertained unless an oaiee r. cruiser, whose fluty it is to ascertain this fact. shall board of the merchantman shall bring vessel, or unles s the master his papers on beard the truiser ; and this "examination lot papers of merchantmen. suspected of being engaged in the ,lave trade, even though they may hoist a United States flag, is a proceeding which it, is absolutely necessary that British cruisers eineleyed in the, suppression of the slave trade should continue to practise, and to•which her Majesty's Government are fully persuaded that the United States Government can not, upcin consideration, object ; because, what would be the consequence of a contrary practice? What would be the consequence if a vessel, engaged in the slave trade, could protect herself from search by merely hoist ing a United Slates flag? Why, it is plain tha' in such case every slave trading pirate, whether Spanish, Portuguese, or Ilraailian, or English or French, or of whatever na tion he might be, would immediately sail under the colours of the United States ;. every criminal could do that, though he could not procure genuine American 'papers; and thus all the treaties concluded among the Christian Powers, for the suppression of the slave trade, would be rendered a dead letter. Even the laws of England might be set at defiance by her own suWects, and the slave trade would be invested with complete impunity. Her Majesty's Government are persuaded that the United States' Government cannot maintain a doe trirw which would neeessardy,lead to such monstrous conse quences; but the undersigned is bound in duty frankly to de. clare to Mr. Stev enson th a t t o suc h a doctrine the British Go, vernment never could or would subscribe. The cruisers employed by her Majesty's Government for the suppression or slave trade must ascertain by inspection of pa pers the nationality of vessels met with by them under circum stances which justify a suspicion that such vessels are engaged in slave trade, in order that, if such vessels are found to belong lo a country which has conceded to Great Britain the mutual right of search, they may be searched accordingly ; and thatif they be found to belong to a country which, like the United States, has not conceded that mutual right, they may be allowed to pass on, free and unexamined, to consummate their hatended iniquity. Iler Majesty's Government feels convinced that the United States Government will see the necessity of this course of proceeding.. lint her Majesty's Goverrm►ent would fain hole that the day is not far d►stant when the Government of the United States will cease to ()unfound two thingt which are in their nature entirely different ; will look to things, and not to words, and perceiving the wide and entire distinction between that right of search which has heretofore been a subject ,of discussion be tween the two countries, and that right of search which almost all other Christian nations have mutually given each other for the suppression of :he slave trade, will ,join the Christian league, and will no longer permit the ships and subjects of the Unio■ to be engaged in undertakings which the law of the Union punishes as piracy.. The undersigned avails himself of this occasion to renew to Mr. Stevenson the assurances of his distinguished consideration. A. Steverson, Esq., &c. PALMERSTON. MR. STEVENSON TO LORD ABERDEEN. .39, Upper Grosvenor -street. Sept. 10, 16.11. The undersigned, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Mai. potentiary from the United States, has the honour to acquaint the Earl of Aberdeen, her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for ;Foreign Affairs, that he has had the honour to receive the two communications addressed to him by Lord Vis. count Palmerston, her Majesty's late Principal Secretary of State fur Foreign Affairs, tinder date of the 27th ultimo, upon the subject of the improper and harassing conduct. of British cruisers toward the vessels and flag of the United States in the African seas. In communicating the decision of her Majesty's Government upon the claims submitted to its consideration, it would have given the undersigned great satisfaction to have represented that decision as one calculated to do justice to the individual claimants, and in accordance with the just rights and interests of his country. lie had indulged a confident hope that the complaints which had been made upon the sub ject would have been followed not only by suitable atonement and reparation, but by an immediate abandonment of the system of wron' , and violence to which the vessels and com merce of the United States had been so long exposed, through the misconduct of British cruisers in the African seas. This course he had expected; not less from the justice of her Majesty's Government than the friendly relations subsi,t- Mg between the two countries. It is, therefore, with painful surprise and regret that the un dersigned now learns from Lord Palmerston's communications, that these proceedings of her Majesty's el uisers have not only been approved and justified, and the injuries which ensued to remain unredressed, but that a right is now asserted by her Majesty's Government over the vessels and Sig of the United States, involving high questions of national honour and inte rest, of public law, and individual rights. Having heretofore, iu his correspondence with Lord Palmer ston, discussed the merits of these claims and the principles in. volved in them, and presented the views and expectations of his Government upon the subject, the undersigned does not feel it incumbent. upon him, at this time, to ilium again the general diseustion, or-recapitulate the particular circumstances by which these cases might justly claim to be distinguished. Referring Lord Aberdeen to the previous correspondence which has, taken place, the undersigned will refrain front fur ther discussion of the individual cases, and content himself with a brief examination of those parts of Lord Pahnerston's notes in ,which a power is, for the first time, distinctly asserted by her Majesty's Government ever the vessels and flag of the U n it e d States is time of peace, on the high seas. In order to ascertain the precise nature and character of this new and ex traurdinary power, it may be proper to quote those parts of his Lordship's communicatiou in which it is asserted. They are in the following words : " The undersigned begs leave to state to Mr. Stevenson, in reply to the remarks contained in his last note, that her Ma jesty's Government do not pretend that her Majesty's naval officers have tiny right, to search American merchantmen met with in 'time of peaee at sea; but there is an essential and fundamental difference betteeen searching a vessel and exa mining her papers to see whether she is legally provided with documents entitling her to the protection of any country, and especially of the country whose flag she may have hoisted at the time. For though, by common parlance the word ' flag' is used to express the test of nationality, and though, according to that acceptation of the word, her Majesty's Government ad- Ida that. British cruisers are not entitled, in time of peace, to search merchant vessels sailing under the American flag, yet her Majesty's Government .do not mean thereby to say that a merchantman can exempt himself from search by merely hoisting a piece of bunting with the United States emblems and colours upon .it ; that which her Majesty's Government mean is, that the rights of the United States' flag exempt a vessel from search when that vessel is provided with papers en titling her to wear that flag, and proving her to be United States property, and navigated according to law." And again : " The cruisers employed by her Majesty's Government for the suppression of the slave trade, must ascertain, by the inspec tion of the papers, the nationality of vessels met with by them under circumstances which justify a suspicion that such vessels are engaged in the slave trade, in order that, if such vessels are found to belong to a country which has conceded to Great Britain the mutual right of search, they may be searched ac cordingly. ; and that, if they be found to belong to a country which, like the United States, has not conceded that mutual right, they may be-allowed to 'pass on free and unexamined, to consummate their intended iniquity." Here is a direct assertion of a right, on the part of British cruisers, to board and detain all vessels sailing under the flag of the United States, whether American or not, for the purpose of ascertaining, by an examination of their papers, their national character, and deciding whether they ate en titled to tile protection of the flag of the country under which they sail. Now, it is proper to remark that the attempt which his leirdship makes to distinguish between the i ight of search (a right, however, which he disclaims) and that which he asserts, is wholly fictitious. They are essentially the same for all the purposes of the present discussion. Indeed, the right to board, detain, and decide upon the national character 01 vessels navigating the ocean in time of, peace, may justly be regarded as more odious and insulting, anti giving place to wider and more important injuries than the right of search, which is put tily a belligerent right, and cannot be enforced in time of peace. But if the distinction was admitted to be a sound one, yet nothing would be gained in support of the right which Lord Palmerston claims for her Majesty's Govern ment. The inquiry must ;till arise, whether a power even of visitation or detention can be rightfully and lawfully exercised by one 11:u ion over the ships of another in time of race upon the high seas. That it eannet the undersigned w t 1 now pro ceed briefly to show. And first, as to the principles of public law and the usage of nations. By these it is expressly declared that the ves els of ail nations, in time of peace, navigating the ocean hall be exempt from every species and purpose of interrup tion, and detention, unless engaged in some traffic contrary to the law of nations, or expressly provided for by treaty and compact. Now, although piracy is admitted to be an offecce against the public law, and therefore punishable in every country and by every nation, no matter where com mitted, it must yet be borne in mind that all piracies are not offences against the law of nations Piracy, therefore, by international law, and that which may be made so by the municipal law of particular States, are essentially of a dif ferent character, and to be treated accordingly. Hence it is that offences declared to be piracy ky the municipal laws of any State can only Le tried and punished by the country within whtee jurisdiction, or on board of whose ships on the ocean, the offence may have been committed. Now, slave trade is not. cognizable under the law of nations. Al though prohibited by most nations, and declared to be piracy by their laws, and especially by the statutes of Great Britain and the United States, it is yet not an °llene. against the public law, and its interdiction cannot be en forced by the ordinary right of visitation, detention, or search, in the manner that it might be if it was piracy by the law of oations. That this is the acknowledged doctrine of interna tional law cannot, it is presumed, be doubted. It is so ex • pressly declared by all writers upon the law of nations, and has been acknowledged by the British Government, through its highest judicial tribunals. Her annals are full of instruction on the subject. The following is the language held by one of her most distiuguished jurists .. . “ We are disposed to go as far in discountenancing this odious traffic as the law of nations and the principles recognised by English titbunals will allow us in doing; but. Le3ond these principles we do not feel at liberty to travel. Formal decla ratiuns have been made and laws enacted in reprobation of this practice, and plans, ably and zealously conducted; have been taken to induce other countries to follow our example, but at present with insufficient effect. ; for there are nations which ad here to the practice, under all the encouragement which their own laws give. What is, ;hen, the doctrine of our own Courts, of the laws of nations? AVhy, that this practice is to be respected ; the slaves, if taken, to be restored to their owners ; and, if not taken under innocent mistake, to be re stored with costs and damages." Again : "It would be, indeed, a most uxtravagant assumption, in any Court ofthe law of nations, to pronounce that. this practice, the tolerated, the approved, the encouraged object of law, ever since man became subject to law, was legally criminal." ? to (cont end ntlie a e i. thetm l e a k , ' v t the D s t l ' a e :e h t ( i r ad i C i a i i s e e s t t , l n ' t s rar G y o t ' .o . forbidden it, and, consequently, no right g lorvriamtieo: iven to any one , is not the trade lawful to all Governments . who have not nation over the slave ships of another in time of peace, inde pendent of express treaty kt ipulal 1 . „„, by which the ex t ent o f the power io be exerc i sed must be regulated. The right, then, which Lord Palm erston asserts de rives no support from the principles of the p ublic law, but is left to stand upon the grounds of expediency and necessity as the means of executing the existit ',,, treaties for the s upp ress i on o f t h e s l ave trade, and without which his Lordship asserts they would become a dead letter. Whether this be so or not the undersigned has no ~.~ I
