Yeeun neu'a Chrl-tiaa As.seiatisu and Rv-
erett Lyesuns Jsint Discus-ieu.
The discussion between the AbOve-named
yceume Of the question: Resolved, That the
lntertata Of civilization demand the estab-
lisbmeut OF an international court for the
setllenIent OF disputes between nations, ("
which was continued from Friday, came TO .
close on Saturday alghL
Mr. Buitum opened for the affirmative,
and made Due Logical argument. He held
that history plainIy showed that arbitration
was the best means Of settling International
difficulties, and cited numerous instances In
support Of this assertion. The proposed
court would sottle disputes q, cordlng 70
reason aud justice, and not, as war does, BY
chance.
He was followed on the neestlye by Mr..
Piper. who made an excellent speech, hold
Ing that the diverse character Of the nations
which would be represented 10 the proposed
court would render reasonable declhions In
possible. The court would largely represent
monarchical sentiments, and would be detri-
mental 70 republican Interests. Mr.. Tillman,
Mr.. Murdoch and Mr.. Freeman followed upon
the same side, and were opposed by Mr.. 1illy,
MI. Ross and Mr.. haeBride for the affirm
alive.
NJ. Murdoch made an eloquent address,
and was frequently applauded. lie followed
the same line Of argument pursued by his
predecessor, holding that the proposed court
would become a mighty tyrant, lending its
Influence 10 monarchlai governments, and
utterly crushing every attempt to overthrow
tyranny. Il would have no means to enforce
la DEGREES unless II resorted TO the sword; Il
would crush national existence, and place the
International affair Of republics In the hands
OF despotlc tyrants.
Mr. MAeBrlde replied 10 Mr.. Murdoch In q
speech which brought down the house."
lie held that war was custom, and could be
abollahed At pleasure. The proposed court
would simply become the authorized lnter-
prefers Of The code Of International laws at
present recognized by all the nations Of
chTistendom. Ia this glorious land Of free
dom men from all the nations OF the earth
live harnonlously under the same governs
ment and settle their disputes without blood
shed. Nations, which are composed Of this
same material, may do the same thing.
War IL . great evil. No great evil exists In
the universe for which God has provided no
adequate remedy. Mr.. MacBride made the
leading speech Of the Affirmative, and was
frequently applauded during Its delivery.
Hon. Horatio King, who acted In the place
Of Mr.. Delauo, delivered the declaion Of the
umplres. He said the ability Of the two
lyceums was evenly balaaeed, but the Everett
lyceum had made the strongest argument
AZ long as human nature remains n Il is war
was a necessity. lie therefore gave the imam
lmous decision Of the umplres In favor Of the
Everett lyceum,
