The RIGHT OF S RARCH

President Tyler has sent in message to Congress
the right Of search, IN accordance with resalu-
ton calling for Information. on that subject. The
following is extract from the message, as 10 the
eight Of search
The attempt 10 justify such preten-
sion from the righ: 10 visit and detain ships
upon reasonable suspicion of piracy would
deseryedly be exposed ID universal con-
demnation, since Il would be an attempt
10 convert an established rule Of maritime
law. incorporated as principle into the
international code by The consent Of all
nations, into arule and principle adopted
by single nation and enforced only by
its assumed authority. To seize and de-
tain ship upon SUSPICION Eof piracy, with
probable cause and 10 good faith, affords
no just ground either for complain on the
part ofythe nation whose flag she bears, or
claim Of indemnity on The part Of The
owner. The universal law sanctions, and
the common good requires. the existence
of such al rule. The right under such
circumstances, not onfr 10 visit and de-
tain. butsto search asbip. is y perfect right.
and involves neither responsibility nor in
demnlty. But with this single excep-
tion, no nation has, in time Of peace. any
authority 10 detain the ships Of another
upon the high seas on any pfetext what
ever beyond the limits Of the territorial
jurisdiction. And suchl am happy TO
find, is Substantially The doctrine Of Great
Britain herself. in her most recent official
declarations, and even 10 those now COM
municated 10 The House These decla-
raiions may we'll lead JUS 10 doubt whether
the apparent difference between The twn
Governments is not rather one of definition
than Of principle. Not onl. i The r;ohtl
OF search, properly so called. d;scIa;msd
by Great BfIiain, BIT even that Of mere
visit and inquiry is asserted win onalis.
