Seizures by the Government.
THE INJURY THEY DO.

The manner in which the Government
has seized sugar, ETC., throughout the
S'ath and West, even if warranted by
law. which We doubt, is having very in
furious effect upon the merchantile com
munity; 1t has sown the seeds Of distrust
in mems minds. and the consequence is
capital fights shy Of everything which is
imported. for fear that no matter how fair
may he the transaction, the strong arm Of
thu Government will interfere, and their
goods. bough, M good faith. bs con6sca-
It'd. We have heard Of many cases where
goods having been seized on suspicion, in
the possession Of parties who purchased
them, AT second hand, were finally released
as being all right; but tue merchants have
been compelled to pay the costs, amount
ing not "nfrequentIy to thousands Of dol
lars. Could anything be more unjust an d
oppressive. That the Government can
seize goods after hnving been passed
through the Custom House and gone into
the hands Of second and third parties. and
hold those goods for any fraud upon the
customs perpetrated through. the .gency
Of its own ofic-rs, seems to us as a mon
strcns proposition. and If it is maintain ID,
will very essentially cripple our commerce.
No man under that constructor Of the
law would b. safe, however fair or honest
might BE- his dealing. and We have heard
merchants Of high standing assert that if
such action was maintained, they would
b- compelled to abandon their pursuits.
The fret thing 70 be do.. is to select
honest officials s-if that b. possble-and
10 fix their bonds AT such sums as will
secure the Government in the event Of
fraud Hshe sworn officers Of tn Govern
ment prove corrupt, it .is not to be expect
ed that they will not find men ready and
willing to Join them. especially WIN the
Government ha. continually wink-d ut
the backslidirg Of its employees. Frauds
will continue to occur just so long as gov.
ernuneuss exist. and the best manner to
lessen them is to use proper discrimination
in the selection Of eisst.. aaSst, Who are noto ss
lR%Ssiy 'Sssii! corrupt, simply 10 please some
politician. how can it BE- expected that
they viii prove uur- ~ snow, and that
their ofiiciai robes viii! not become soiled.
We repeat, there j. no shadow Of equity
in tho action Of the Government seizing
goods after they. have passed out Of the

TnE Hos. IL. MorLEY.-JohnI 10th
rop MOtloy, the newly appointed Minis
ter to the Court Of st. james, was born
in Dorchester, Mass, April Is, 1914.
After graduating ut Harvard College In
1881, he passed number of years In
Europe, partly IS a student at the uni.
veraitIea of GottiRgcn and Berlin, and
partly in general Continental travel. Up
on his rcturmto the United States he de-
voted himself to- tire stWdy Of law, and
in 1867 was admitted TO the bar. This
profession, hwever, bs soon abandoned,
and during the next 20 years his atten!
ton was chiefly directed toward literary
pursuits. A novel entitled "Morton's
Hope" was published by him in lsaa,
aud second, "Msrry Moant,''- appeared
ten years later. Hia history of the '.Rise
and FaN Of tbe Duteh Republie,p which
appeared in 1856, placed MIR. Motley In
the first rank Of modern historians. 4 He
was appointed Minister TO Australia in
November, 1891, which position he oc.
cupied until 1867, when, on tbe occasion
of the memorable McCraoken scandal, he
rendered his resignation in the famous
reply TO Mr.. Seward's remarkable diplo-
