American Claims.

American Claims.
Earl Russell, In his despatch to Minister
Adams, says her majesty's Government must
decline to make reparation and compensation
for captures made by the Alabama, or refer
the question to any foreign state. The Cover
ment however is ready to consent to the ap-
pointment of commission, to which shall be
referred all claims arising during the late civil
war, which the two powers shall agree to refer
to the commissioners.
Mr.. Adams considers there is now no dis
pute as to the fact that the recognition OF the
South as belligerent was an act such as was
never done by one nation toward another IN
state Of amity He charges the Br1tlsh GOV
erment with having acted without knowledge
and upon mere presumption IN assuming that
evidence Of the blockade was imperfect. Ihe
blockade was in consequence not the cause OF
the British policy. lie lntlmates that II the
doctrines and practices of the British Govef-
ment are allowed to become q rule, the United
States will not be the greatest losers thereby

posa of Russell, to refer the question IN ols-
pute to commission, will be accepted by the
United States.
