The English Press on the Alabama Treaty.

The London papers have elaborate
editorial comments upon the rejection OF
the Alabama claims treaty by the Senate
Com mittee. The Times believes the real
ground for the rejection is the charge OF
British bad faith made in the Boston
petition signed by George B. Upton and
others. The Daily Nesos says:
The English people will be unani-
nous in feeling that their concessions put
them in the right in this matter before
the moral judgment of the world. We
have. satisfied the Government which
first advanced the claims upon US, have
conceded everything which American
diplomacy felt it could fairly insist upon,
and it is not now for US to take any
further step in the matter. 1t is quite
impossible for EDglishnen to understand
what their American cousins want, and
we can now do nothing but wait for some
Ineligible exposition of their require
menfs. But it must be distinctly under
stood that we wait in the full conviction
that we have granted all that could be
granted; have satisfied to the full all the
demands made upon us; and have thus
completely cleared ourselves from all
responsibility for the failure of these long
and troublesome negotiations. We, at
least, went into these negotiations with q
desire to settle them, and that desire has
prevailed over every other sentiment.
We were anxious TO close up an open
wound; to remove a cause of offense to
give costly proof of our desire for
peace, union and brotherhood between
kindred nations. Henceforth no respon-
sibility belongs to US. We shall regret
that a perpetual danger 10 our friendly
relations should exist; but if these Ala
bama claims remain forever unsettled,
the blame will not rest on England 1t
must be clearly understood that though
We may stand upon our concessions, and
grant them as readily to the Government
of General Grant as we have done to
that of Mr.. Johnson, new proposals for
settlement must now come from the
other side if they are ever to be made at

who may be said to have distinguished himself ir
the late war. Able and eloquent, man Of splen'
did address, with fine person and carriage, it is
safe to say thst the Office was never adorned by q
more distinguished character. His career in the
war was that of brave and chivalrous soldier,
who won the respect even Of his opponents.
The fifteenth Vice President was Hannibal
Hamlin, of Maine; and the sixteenth was Andrew
johnson, of Tennessee. 1t is unnecessary to speak
Of these gentlemen. Mr.. Hamlin is q very ordina-
ry man; perhaps the most so, with the exception
of the present incumbent Schuyler Colfax-who
ever filed the position. Andrew johnson was
really superior character, whom death, for the
third time designated as the controller Of the Ex-
ecutive Mansion. Severely denounced and bitter
ly assailed, he may rely with confidence upon pos.
terity doing justice to the great measures Of bis
administration. The man who, without any ad-
vantages in early life, could rise from village
alderman to be President of the United States,
passing, in the meantime, through all the grada-
tons, could not but have possessed sterling quail
ties and q vigorous intellect
