A PRETsNr FOR A,WAR.-Tho Britt.

A PRETSNT FOR A,WkR.-The British
Minister at Washington, las called on the A.
mericarG Government. to release man ramed
Nc Cleod, now in cuatodyin The State Of New
York, on charge Of murder and arson, as com
Hitted at the burning orihe Caroline, an account
OF (which may lie found on our first page. The
President has replied that there is no validity in
the demand, inasmuch as the case comes within
the jurisdiction Of the State of N. Y, in which
the act was perpetra,ed.
The circumstances nonnected with the ar
res, ofIhe prisoner, (says Mr.. FORSYTH forbid
his release. He was charged with arson COM
mited upon American soil and American prop
erty. The history oftls burning of the Caro-
linc was.he history ofa g.ca: outrage, and the
prisoner was confined or arranged under the
charge Of being ono ofa band OF lawless marau'
deu. He made his appearance in New York
voluntarily, after tho commission Of the offence,
and was imprisoned as one of the guilty party.
The president, ,cO6tinues MIR Forsyth, knows
Of no principle Of international law which calls
for the release Of such an offender.
The President has frequently been charged
'by Federal editors, with neglect of duty in not
demanding of the British Government, redress
for the burning oftbo Caroline, and the invasion
OF our territory. By the correspondence just
pUbliUhed,it appears he has done his duty in ma
king and reitsratng the demand, an no atten-
tion has been paid to it by fhe British Govem>
ment. Will those editors who have wonged
Mr.. Van Buren,, cOrectthe erori We shall
see. Il will test theil honor. In the mean
time, what will be the end Of this controversy,
10 beyond conjsoture. Wars have sprung from
nlFhur causes than that. It will depend on
