TIE TREATY FAILURE - Eaciting De-
bate IN PaHianaeut Tho moving by
Lord Russell in the House of Lords. last
night, of his long threatened address to
the Queen, praying that instruction be
given to her Majesty's representatives at
Geneva to retire from the board of ar
bltration, if the claims for indirect dam
ages were not withdrawn, gave rise to
long and animated debate Che Earl
il his address, said that the honor of
English government required that it
shonh speak plainly, and that i. should
say to the United States ''withdraw the
indirect claims or no arbitration" The
bonbastic Earl concluded his address
with: "The nation must show, as it has
before, that it is jealous of the honor of
the British crown; it must treat the Unit
ed States as it treated them in the Trent
case" Earl Granville defended the right
of the United States to place its own
construction on the treaty,an to Introduce
the Indirect claims. He also efend ed
the commissioners who negotiated the
treaty aud very proderoly rebuked Earl
Russell for his sneering allusiou to the
Trent affair. The discussion assumed a
vide range. and during its con tiuuance
the members sharply criticised each

VIZ publish in our local column the
proceedings of the Conservative Meeting
held at the court house on Monday. a
great deal of feeling was exhibited and
at one time it was feared that the meetinr
would adjourn without accomplishing the
purpose which prompted the call. While
the feeling was by no means unanimous
it was nevertheless sufficiently strong to
indicate that the'people are disposed TO
defeat the present administration by any
means within their power. A nomina-
ton at Baltimore, it is generally believed
would ensure the election Of Grant. IF
no domination should be mado, he NAV
be defeated. Upon the action of that
convention, we may safely say, depends
the defeat or success Of tue Radical party.

THE ARREST oF Dr.. LANAuAs The

Of Or. John Lanahan for linc aud slan-
der, at the instance Of Samuel J.
Goodenough, was effected by two deputy
sheriffs, who grufiy refused him the
privilege of writing to his friends to
apprize them Of the affair, until he reach
ed the shorid's O;Gee. Here he declined
the permission finally accorded and was
sent 10 Jail. He WAS released IN Satur-
day, having given the necessary amount
of S. 600, which he might easily lave
done at first had he not pr ferred to wait
for bis brother from BALTIMORE.

Goodenough is brought before Judge
i'eoni1h, III inc CupeIiOI Ouu[G, ana the
affidavit on which warrant Of arrest was
granted by the judge is partially made on
affidavit and belief. 1t sets forth the
ground of complaint in the following
way: That the defendant has often re-
peated and spoken to good and worthy
citizens that the plointif was a common
thief and robber. and that he could prove
such to be the fact, and that plalnliffs
wife wore diamonds and other iewelry
bought with money stolen by him plain
tiff from the Methodist Book Cooceru, in
which plaintiff was employed that plain
tiff had stolen $20,0oU from said con-
Germ in one year, and that defendant pub
lished such false and malicious lioels in
letter to one of the Bishops of the NJ. E.
Church, and others. Plaintiff averred
on information and belief, that deienda ut
had disposed of his house iu this city, and
purposed residing in the city of Baltimore,
Md and prayed for his arrest before he
left the jurisdiction of the, court. The
damages to reputation and character were
laid at 1926, 900.

But the institution Of slavery formed hitherto an
almost impossible barrier TO emigration from
the free to slave states. There are not prob
ably In all of the southern states So 900
emigrantS from the free states. There has been
indeed . considerable emigration from Virginia,
North Carolina ani tennessee, to Ohio, Indiana
ard Illinois. This amounted to not far from n
quarter of a million; but apart from this there
are not probably $4,000 PERSONS of southern
birth residing in the "non-slaveholding states"
Now that the one great obstacle has been re-
moved it is to be hoped that the next census
will show very different state of thingsl that
there will be mutual interchange of popula-
ton between the great sections; that there will
be hundreds of thousands of eN.cOnfederates in
the west and northwest, aud hundreds of thou-
sands of Yankees, Hoosiers. and buckeyes in
the old "confederacy," each class modifying the
character of the region in which they take up
their abode; while every section will in like
manner receive something OF tone and impulse
from emigration from abroad. 1t is to be hoped
and believed that the American people of the
future will be cosmopolitan in so far, at least, as
to gather TO itself all that is good in the great
kindred races from which it has sprung. Nay
more, it is not altogether unlikely that we have
much to appropriate from the Chinese and the
japanese. A. II. C.
