ENGLISH BEHAyIoR ON THE 'cLAIMs.'
IFrom the New York Tribunel
British public opinion accepted the Treaty
with twice the etfusion and delight which was
exhibited here. They grew almost idyllic In
their expressions Of satisfaction II they dream,
ed that because we were reasonable, we had
renounced all our rights and our claims, that
was not our fault. We gave no such assurances
at any time. They refused lump sum to cover
all damages, in consideration OF which we had
offered 10 waive our claim for indirect losses.
We were therefore driven to include those in our
bill, or stultify all our previous action. WheR
our case appeared, there was a week OF surly
comment which grew at last into violent denun-
citation. The tempest Of vulgar passion culmi'
mated yesterday in an uncaled-for paragraph in
the Throne Address and foolishly impulsive
speech from the Treasury Bench.
What the result OF all this will be- it is prema-
ture to say Every day of this cAuseless excite
ment in England makes the matter more difficult.
THE PRESIDENT on TUE ENGLISH QUESTION.
[From the Y. HerAld,l
II the President were moved by vulgar ambi-
ton, il he saw war as passion or the means OF
power and glory, il he were controlled by the
ignoble purposes which were underlying the
character OF Napoleon and Frederick, he would
welcome a conflict with England upon the very
issue which she 70 unwisely thrusts upon US.
But the President, as we have said. is a man OF
peace. He has shown moderation prudence
and love for peace which gives us the highest
guarantee that he will not wantonly canse a
single gun to be fired in anger. For this reason
more, perhaps, than any other his resolution
to accept no indignity from England and 10
be moved by no menaee-to stand By the Amer
lean cease" as presented by his Cabinets
joyfully accepted by his country. He will find
the country behind him. He will see that what
ever division there may be ON domestic ques-
tions as against England upon an issue like this
the country Ia a unit, and will support him to
any extent and in every emergency. Tho cause
is not of party, but Of the Republic, and every
patriot 30 regards it.

IMPROVEMENT OF THE DELAWARE BY EN-
GINEERING OPERATIONS.

The letter Of q correspondent from New Castle,
published elsewhere calls up the general subject
Of the improvement Of the navigation Of the
Delaware, and OF the various harbors upon it..
In the report of General A. A. Humphreys, Chief
of Engineers, to the Secretary of War, submitted
in October last, and printed by order Of Con-
gress, several important operations of the Engi-
neer Department, on the Delaware are referred
10.
In reference to New Castle, General HUM
pheys says ''the ice-harbor has boon injured by
encroachments Of whAryes, and shoAling Of
the bottom. 1t is one Of the original series of
Delaware ice-harbors, and its maintenance is
required by the commerce OF that river" He
therefore recommends an appropriation OF S67,-
600. for this harbor, of which 100000 will be
needed for the construction of three new piers.
and the remainder to complete the repairs of the
existing one.
The General also regards the ice har5or at
lseedy Island as required by the river commerce.
The work there was never more than half COM
pleted, owing to the insufficiency Of the appro-
priation, and being constructed of wood is fast
decaying. He says the upper line of piers re
quires to be rebuilt, and to be constructed OF
stone above the water level. The expense will
be s19O, 900.
At Marcus Hook the harbor has been substan-
TALLY completed. and will be OF much service in
the ice season. No further appropriation is now
needed. The amount expended was S34 ,S2s SO.
In the Christiana, at Wilmington, the report
says:
The appropriation Of $4,000. made for this
improvement, is being applied to the deepening
''of the entrance from the Delaware, and Of the
river between Third st. and Market ST. bridges.
"The rock, in mid-channel, short distance
above the Third street bridge will be removed,
and the channel at the entrance will be WIDEN
1" ed as much as the appropriation will allow.
The improvement OF the river requires the re-
movAl OF small amount OF soft material just
below the mouth OF the Brandywine some
additional cutting above the Third street
" bridge, with some widening Of the channel, and
81 small bar cut away above Market st. bridge.
&" There is another rock short distance below
" the one which has been taken out and be-
'low the Third street bridge. ledge projects
" into the channel from the South bank. These
." should be removed"
The original appropriation for this work was
$4,000, of which, up to June 80, 1871 only S2,-
739 "A had been expended For the next fiscal
year, the amount required for the work is sl5,-
900.
