practice, and far the failure OF the match Il fhe
least to be regretted. Nor can Doubt the enrractnsa
Of his recent statement, that the time barely NECESSARY
for the match itself could not be spared without
serious loss and inconvenience both to others and
to himself But cannot but think that in all fairness
and c0nslderateness, Mr.. Stanton might have told
y0R Of this long before he did. know no reason why
he might not have ascertained It, and informed you Of

Mr. Jelnlger Symons, instructed by Mr.. Smith, of
Gloucester attended on behalf of the defendants and
Mr. John Jones attended as American Yice.Consul.
II appeared that the complainant native of New
York, and that the ship was American, the CAPTAIN
an American, and that the complainant had joined
the snip IN New York under the American flag. Mr..
Symons commended that the magistrates had no urs-
det1on in the case as the assault alleged have
been committed on the high seas under the American
flag, and by the Captain who was himself an Aneri-
can. The case could only be entertained by the
American Government. He cited clause in an Act
Of Parliament, and also case which clearly estah-
llshed this point.
The magistrates therefore refused to entertain the
charge OF assault, being of opinion they had no juris

must he made to Mr.. Jones' the American Yice.Con-
