ARMSTRONG 1T is very we'll known that the
Clayton cabinet Of General Taylor was exceedingly
ambitious of the popularity of little breeze Of
war, as ar as it could be raised without any real
danger Of resort to the skina ratio regwm OF
bayonets and gunpowder. Hence the very ridicu-
lous BorAbsstes Furioso Rare-up with Poussn, his
expulsion from the country, and the buster of im-
pending war and impending fiddle sticks. Next,
in imitation Of Old Hickory and his demand upon
LOUIS Philippe for the twenty five millions Of francs
Of French indemnisies, Mr.. Clayton made his
peIemptory demand upon Portugal for indemni-
fcaton for the less of the brig General Armstrong,
an American cruizer, captured by the British in
Portuguese harbor, during the war Of 1872. The
death of General Taylor, however, cut short all
our expectations Of a speedy somewhere, if not
at several places at the same time, and turned over
diplomatic and domestic affairs into the hands OF
the present administration.
Mr.. Webster forthwith proceeded not to fight,
but to trtst with Portugal; and it was agreed
between the two high contracting parties in this
case to throw over the subject to the aroiIraon Of
the Prince or President of some other power.
President Louis Napoleon was accordingly selected
the umpire; and, from the tenor of the foreign
tracts which published yesterday, he has decided
may be expected to decide, against the claim for
indemnity, in the case of the General Armstrong
We shall not now attempt to show the prejudice of
the opinions of the English press upon this suS Sject
1t would be waste of time and Dor, especially
the French President is reported to have decided
upen the case. Agreeaby to our understanding of
the history Of the case, however, We have always
thought the claim valid one against Portugal;
and, if there has been decision, all that
rely upon is this, that Louis Napoleon will be
governed more by the facts and the law Of nations
than by the opinions of the British press; and it
seems to that their ntermeddling in the mater
at this point of the business, is neither necessary
nor strictly magnanimous.
