The Alabama Claims Discussed.

LONDON, February The subject of the
treaty of Washington and the claims Of the
American Government for indirect damages
was again introduced in the House Of Commons
and gave rise to another exciting discussion
Mr. Ralph Osborne in the course Of his re-
marks said the Alabama question was the
most momentous one that Eng land had been
called to pass upon within a century. He COM
pared the astute lawyers who composed the
American Commission with the novices who
represented England, and said the latter had
been completed outwitted. If, said he, law
yers had planned the English case We could es-
cape with the payment of six millions sterling
The American Commissioners had served their
country we'll and achieved triumph. Mr..
Osborne continuing, said the trouble lay at
home; the Government had armies which
could not march and ships which were uusea
worthy, and now they had treaty which they
could not stand upon.
Mr.. Otway, formerly Under Secretary of
State tor Foreign Affairs, blamed the Govern
ment for all the trouble which had been
wrought. He thought, however, that the
American government would recede from its
extreme demands, but said in case it did not,
England, having ADMITTEDLY the principle, indi-
rect claims, must be prepared to meet the cnor
nous demands upon US.
Mr.. Gladstone and several other members
defended the action OF the Commissioners and
of the Government, and said they hoped the
American claim for indirect damages would be
withdrawn.
LONDON, February 7.-Earl Granville's dis
patch contains no threat to withdraw from the
arbitration, and makes neither demand nor pro-
posal 1t simply calls attention IN temperate
aud concliatory language to the meaning that
England attaches to the treaty. Gladstone S
speeches yesterday and to day are widely criti-
cized as mischievous, offensive and needlessy
irritating, and it is believed several members of
the Cabinet strongly disapprove of their pas
sionate Tone The Cabinet and the people are
unanimous for abandoning the arbitration un-
less the American claims are modified. There
is no intention of offering an sffront to America.
The situation is regarded in the highest Eng
fish aud American quarters as extremely grave,
but not hopeless.

The House Of Delegates having come to the
conclusion that it could do nothing with the
Land Scrip fund, has dropped the bill and the
Senate have taken it up, bill having been
introduced and ordered to its second reading,
to divide the fund between Richmond College,
Hampden Sydney College, and the Hampton
Normal and Agricultural School, but whether
this will be acceptable is doubtful, and SO the
fund will, in all probability, remain in statu
quo-doing nobody any good, and the discus
sion of its division costing the State as much
as the fund will amount to. A costly gift it
will prove.

conductor of the freight train, seeing that u
collision was inevitable, jumped from his train
and sought safety in flight.

SEEKING THE North POLE From the St.
Louis Democrat, Jan. 80. Mr.. Octave Pavy
a wealthy and adventurous young Frenchman
arrived in this city day or two ago, he hav-
ing come here for the purpose of consulting
Captain Silas Bent in relation to voyage
which he proposes to the North Pole in an
ingeniously constructed India rubber raft. This
raft is composed of four keel shaped cylinders,
fastened together on the decks by wooden Stats
to which the necessary masts and rigging are
attached. 1t was designed by the inventor as
a life boat, to be carried on vessels and used in
case of fire or shipwreck. 1t is so small that
it occupies very little room, in fact Mr. Pavy
carries his packed in barrel. Such raft can
not be capSized, and will float in the severest
storm. 1t will carry about ten thousand
pounds of freight besides the crew. Captain
Mikes, who accompanies NJ. Pavy has crossed
the Atlantic in fourteen days on this same raft?
He will attend NJ. Pavy on his trip toward the
Pole.
NJ Pavy finding the Union Pacific Road
and 60 to San Francisco by some other route.
He will leave San Francisco in the spring, and
will steer for Petrozavodsk where he will take
on board provisions, fiu5, dogs and reindeers.
Sailing through Behring's Straits, NJ. Pavy
will bear for the land discovered by Captain
Long, about five hundred miles broad, which
he will cross in sleds drawn by reindeer and
dogs, taking his boat with him. This land lies
between seventy-one and eighty degrees Of
latitude, and will be reached, it is expected,
some time in August. After crossing it he ex-
poets to find the open Polar Sea described by
navigators, on which he will embark and sail
around to Greenland or Sptzbe zen. He will
take five men, hundred rel eer and forty
provisions for six months He has splendid
flag presented to him by the New York Geo.
graphical Society, of which he is member
He will sail under the French flag. The un-
dertaking appears to be hazardous, but Mons.
Pavy is confident of being able to solve the
problem of the route to the North Pole.

1t is said in reference to the British treaty,
that "this Government has not yet re-
ceived the text of the letter from Lord Gran
vile to Gen. Schenck, and therefore cannot
take official action upon it. There is no proba.
bility that our Government will withdraw any
part of its statement of the case, but will leave
the British Government to pursue its own
course, or the tribunal of Arbitrator to act in
the premises, according to the treaty stipula-
tons. Nor is it likely that our counsel will
take any action, in order to accommodate the
