was absolute, and that to that
body must be left the question of rejecting
or allowing the claims known as " indi-
rect losses" When a reply is made, this
will be the position taken. The President
is very firm OH this point, and he is unan-
imously supported by his Cabinet, and by
all the Republican strength in Congress,
including Mr.. Sumner and Gen. Banks.
The opinion is nowhere entertained here
that the British Government will insist
upon such thing as withdrawal of this
part of the case of the United States The

THE ALABAMA CLAIMS CONTROVERSY

II we look at the Alabama claims con-
troversy and Judge the situation from the
official correspondence that has thus far
passed between thetwo governments, there
is certainly nothing to create alarm. But
taking into consideration the intense ex-
element that has existed in England, and
the spirited debate in the Parliament on
the subject, the situation may at least be
considered grave. Our dispatches tLis
morning inform us that in the money
market at Frankfort our bonds have de-
clined one-half to seven-eights per cent.
Up to this writing we have nothing late
from London. We find in the dispatches
Of Mr.. Crounse TO the New York Times the
following statement Of the situation on
Tuesday night, which may at least be con-
sidered semi-Offieial:
THE friendly communication to the Gov
eminent of the United States, regarding
the Interpretation Of the Treaty of Wash
ington, alluded to in the Queens speech,
consists, so far as this Government is yet
advised, Of note from Earl Granville to
General Schenck, the substance Of which
the latter communicates by telegraph.
This lie not in the nature of demand, nor
even request that there shall be any
withdrawal Of the claims for direct dam
ages. 1t alludes to the excitement in
the public mind and in the press on
the subject, and ascribes it to the
different Interpretation put upon the
Treaty by the United States from that
which it received at the hands of the
English Government. This simply gives
this government all opportunity, if it de-
sires, Of making an explanation, or
even of Withdrawing that part of the case
which is the subject of misinterpretation;
but there is no demand OH the part of the
English Government that such action
should be taken. No reply has yet been
made. The subject was informally talked
over in the Cabinet meeting to-day,
and the expression of the members of
the Cabinet was quite unanimous
that the references Of all claims and
questions to the Geneva Tribunal

We therefore think that the wild invectiyes
of the London press are silly and preposterouS,
and that the Queens request to the American
government to modify its case and retrench its
claims is out of character, and unbecoming the
dignity of great nation. If certain parts of

A Sensible Woman.

A western lady, in writing to the
Des Moines Register,on the woman ques-
ton, says: You may look at this mat
ter in what ever light you will, but
simmer it down, and it is but quarrel
with the Almighty that we are not all
men,
The woman who said that is sensible
woman. If married, she is crown to
her husband, and if any one adds,
Yes, ten shillings,' we shall not dis
pute the reckoning God made every
thing beautiful in its season, and har-
monies of nature, about which poets
sing, and philosophers dream, are real
and actual, if we would open our eyes
and ears to enjoy them. The woman
rebellion against this harmony has al
ready disclosed evil enough to make its
leaders pause, if they were capable of
reflection and susceptible to reason.
Thus far, not one good has it sought,
good is to be done and evil alleviated;
the real evils are left untouched, while
reckless war, under false pretences,
is waged against virtue and the peace
of society. This lady, who writes to
the. .Registsr, hasyput the whole thing
into the compass of nutshell; it is a
quarrel with the Almighty, and will
end as quarrels with Him always end.

Terrible Tragedy Seventeen
Persons Frozen to Death.

Genflemen who came in on the Kan
sasSCity, st. Joe and Council Bluffs
road, Informs us that on Sunday last a
terrible affair occurred in Saline county.
Nebraska. A party of immigrants
withtheir families were passing through
the county, westward, when, the cold
constantly increasing, they concluded
to camp and light a fire. They were Oh
piece of high prairie, and several
miles from any house, but some three
miles off was piece Of timber. After
unhitching their teams the men started
for this timber to procure fuel. Not re-
turning for several hours, the women
left tlieirschildren and started to- hunt
them. This is all>that is known, save
that the next day the bodies of seven
teen persons, who had perished from
the intense cold, were found. The chill
dren who were left in the wagons were
the only survivors of the party who had
started to procure homes in the west. d

have been enabled to CLEAN the sad

cratic travelling companions, CONVERSE
ton turned upon Darwin and his theo-
ry. The ladies argued the pros and
cons in a womanly manner, looking to
MIR. Carlyle for approval. He gave
every fdire ladye the same kindly nod
and smile, no doubt remembering Josh
Billings saying, 'Wooman's inflooence
is powerful-espeshila when she wants
ennything.p One of the party, after
she had given out, said,
