THE SHENANDOAH

ThoTe has been more correspondence on the
Shenandoah case, and others Of similar ckarao-
ter. It will be remembered that Earl Russell pro-
posed to Mfr. Adams joint commission to settle
the respective claims Of the two governments and
of theicitiaens of the two countries. This propo-
sition,t however, excepted such claims as those
arising out of the captures BY the Alabama, the,
Shenandoah and other s0called = rebel pirate
yessels.,, The reason for making this exception
was THAT the English government did not admit the
right of any other government to hold her re-
sponsible for the enforcement or non-enforcement
of their own laws. Leaving entirely out of view
the existence Of any valid claim on the part of the
United States against neutral power for damages
inflicted ON the high seas by the cruisers
of belligerent, the English government
assumed that every thing possible to be done had,
III fact been done to enforce the neutrality laws
Of the empire. As it was only on the ground Of
an assumed violation Of those laws that England
could be called to account In the matter, to &C
cept the discussion would be to admit the right of
another country to inquire into the manner in
which England executes her own laws within her
own territory-a point on which all governments
are peculiarly sensitive. This refusal of England
to admit the Alabama and Shenandoah claims into
the forum of discussion, imposes on the United
States the task Of proving that those vessels were
pirates,' and that if they were pirates Eng
land is responsible for their acts by virtue Of oonni-
vance or culpable neglect. Of course it would be
very difficult to make out such case to the salts
faction of the world, and hence we may presume
that these claims will eventually be dropped.
! On the other hand Mr.. Adams, under date Of
November 2lst 1865. declines, 'on the part of his
| government, the British proposition for joint
commission. @
/ The negotiations which were left unfinished by
1 Earl Russell, were taken up by his successor in
the Foreign Office, only, it appears, to bring them
Ito a sudden Termination. On the I'd Deem
\ Der, 1866, he writes to Mr.. Adams, saying
\ Her Majesty's government consider that no
advantage can result from prolonging the contro-
4 versy, of which the topics gsare fully exhausted,
but which might, probably, if continued, introduce
acrimony into the relations of England and the
United States.n Earl Clarendon persists, how
ever, in asserting that England has never deyated
1 from her duties as neutral power, and he de-
clares how strongly her Majesty's government and
the people Of England desire to be in close friend
| ship with the United States.
After this peremptory dismissal Of the subject,
it is difficult to see how it again be brought up
| for discussion between the two governments, I'M
ess the United States be determined to press it as
ground of permanent controversy.

An incident occurred at st. Louis on Saturday
last illustrating the fact that mules are not only
the most sagacous of all four legged animals, but
they sometimes do things on purely scientific prin-
ciples Adroye of about two hundred ofthese large
minded beasts were brought to the Illinois shore,
opposite the city, and it was concluded that the
best way to get them across was 10 start them on
the ice and let them walk over. As soon as they
reached the ice instinct taught them that they had
embarked on a dangerous Journey, and instantly,
the Oldest mule in the drove--one, too, that had
never been at circus and had no education--took
the lead, and one at time the whole two hundred
fell in,' and followed their leader in single file,
with safe space between, and thus, stretching
themselves into long line they crossed the river.
The circumstance was witnessed by number of
gentlemen who were impressed with the wonder
