neighborhood of Napicau Napakiang, the
Susquehanna and Saratoga went on a
cruise to the eastward, and touched sew
eral beautiful islands, where they distrib-
uted live stock. They also touched at an
island named Bonian. To their surprise
they discovered a few European residents,
consisting of English, Scotch Irish and
Spanish, who had left whalers and estab-
lished themselves there. Among them
were about eleven women.
The governor of the island is Scotch
man. He claims the island as his own
and has been settled there about twenty
years. He has family of several chill
dren, one of whom was drowned a few
days before the Susquehanua touched

the chastisement he gave an editor for
strongly criticising his performance of

in Washington street, where Propeller

the unsuspecting fellow came down stairs,
and Adams sprang upon him, exclaiming,

the tribunal of the other great powers oil
the world for the conduct of its agents
in the affair of Koszta. This extraordina-
~ proceeding has left to the President no
other course, than at once to give to the
world the reasons upon which he rests
the vindication of the American functional
ries. and the views applicable to this case,
upon which his policy is based. To the
end that just and impartial Judgment
m0y be formed upon the whole controver-
sy, 1t is deemed proper at the same time
to publish the Austrian view of the trans
action, as set forth in the despatch of Mr..
Hulseman.
eve need not commend to the careful
attention of our readers the powerful and
conclusive letter of the Secretary of State.
Certainly one of the ablest and most inn
portant State papers which ever issued
from the Department of State, it will be
read with eager interest wherever the
English language is spoken; and its con-
illusions. sustained as they are. by a line
of argument wholly impregnable. and
presented throughout with grave aud
impressive eloquenee admirably adapted
to the subject and the occasion, will chal-
lenge the assent of every government
which recognizes as the rules of its policy
the great principles of international law.
''But it is an exposition of the spirit
which animates and inspires the foreign
policy of President Pierce that this let
ter of the Secretary of State will attract
most attention. Without deciding upon
the comparative importance of other great
questions OF foreign policy 10 which the
attention OF the Administration must have
been directed, and which may ere long
absorb the public interest. We may say
that we have in this letter mos conspi-
cuous and significant commentary upon
the noble declarations of the Inaugural
Address. While excluding any purpose
to aid or protect seditious political propa-
gandism, and drawing the necessary dis
tinction between the citizen and the domi-
cilated inhabitant, it will carry a new
sense of security to every man in foreign
lands. who may rightfully claim the pro-
lection of the United States. 1t will give
a new illustration of the position of our
country among the nations and by every
earnest and judicious advocate of the IL
beral cause throughout the world, it will
be hailed with satisfaction all the more
profound, because the policy which it pro-
claims and vindicates is based upon those
principles of internationallaw and justice
which form the only guarantee of the
peace of Christendom.'
