States to the People, the power right Of secession s

The Right Kind Of a Consul.

Canadian paper, says the New York
Sun, commenting upon the Int summary
massacre Of Americans in i,vanna, says
tha. the impression is preyalen, that had n
British or French mon>of.war hoen lying
IN the harbor, ms was the United States
sloop-of.war Albony. and had BRUSH o,
French Consul been in the city such a
wholesale massacre Of British or French
subjects would nel have taken place. 1t
then relates The following enecdole:-
In 1920, two English snilors, who had
comm.,ed crime in Hav.nn~, were abou
to be shot. They were clearly guilty, but
The British Censul insisted they should be
tried. This the government refused. The
Consul demonstrated, and the Captain Gen.
eral became insolent The hour of exc
cu:ion came and the Consul was on the
spot-he brought with him the consular
flag the British Union Jack,' and agntn
earnestly demonstrated, but in vain. The
officer on the plaza was about to proceed
in the execution of his duty. he Consul
finding all further remonstrance useless,
placed himself in from. of the men, unfold
ed the Union Jack, which he threw over
the kneeling prisoners, and sn'd--
"Noao. shoot at that flag, If 20" aarsI"
They were remanded to prison, and that
night they escaped.
tis very natural that the most intense
indignation should be felt by the Ameri-
can people against the presen, American
Consul at Havana, but if ii should turn out
That he only acted according to instructions
of his government, much Of the opprobri-
um will be removed from him. No doubt
when Congress assemblies an inquiry will
be made as to whether Consul Owens had
special instructions faom the government
10 act as he is reported to have done.
