The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-09-21
The Geneva Award.
From the n. Y. Sun.1

The rlllnur comes from Geneva
that the Arbitration Tribunal on the
Alabama claims has made an award
of damages to the amount of 81, 800,
900, to be paid by Great Britain to the
United States on account of the dep
relations committed by the Alabama
aud other Coafederate cruisers. As.
suming this Iport to be true, the
present owneE of these claims will be
entitled IS receive from the United
States Treasury this amount of mon
ey in proportion to their Several
losses. We say the present owners
of the claims, for many of the orig
inal owners have parted with their
interest in them to spectators, who
are the individuals most interested
in the final disposition of the moneys
to be received from England on this
account.
i3ut If S1i4 issnSce2t reader snpposes
that our Government, as the result of
the Washington treaty, is simply to
receive the amount of money named
in the Geneva dispatches, or any
other amount, in full settlement of
the difference between the two coun-
tries, he is greatly mistaken. The
same treaty which provided for the
submission of the Alabama claims to
arbitration also provided for the ar
bitration of the claims of British sub b.
jects against the United States, and
claims of this character are now under
consideration by d board appointed
for the purpose. What sum they
amount to no person seems to know.
AS long ago as March 81, 1864, no
less than four hundred and fifty
claims against the United States Gov
ernment were on file in the British
Foreign office. These claims included
damages for the capture or detention
of vessels, the Imprisonment of Brit
ish subjects, the destruction OF cotton
and tobacco, and other acts arising
ont of the war in great variety. But
they did not include many cotton
claims for greater amounts which
were filed at a later period; neither
did they inclgde claims registered at
the british Mission in Washington.
The total number of cases in which
damages are claimed against our Gov
ernment is very large, amounting to
millions and millions of dollars, and
these. it must he remembered, stand
as an offset against any damages
awarded in our favor by the Geneva
tribunal.
1t would be rather Il disappoint-
ment to those who have built such
high hopes on the results of the Wash
ington treaty if it should ultimately
turn out that instead of receiving any
money from England the balance
should appear against US III the fral
tseYrie,a,ss.s q .,Ue1ttI4es. But even ii E
such should prove to be the case the
United States will now be committed
to the paymelE of the American citi-
zens who hold the Alabama and kim
dred claims, which is an excellent
thing for them, however it may affect
the national treasury. The adrolt-
ness of the management which has Sc
cured this result cannot be too highly
estimated by the fortunate claimants,
among the largest of whom, we have
Good reason I'd believe, are some OF
the very men Who have borne con-
spicuous part IN the negotiations be-
tween the two countries upon the snb-
ject.

The Maine EectiOn.

From the \. I. Tribune OF Sept, llth.
We Judge that Maine has given the
Grant ticket Is majority OF not quite
sixteen thousand. In 1868, at the
corresponding election, it gave that
ticket 20, ,403 majority, on a full vote
of l31 ,265. All the Grant nominees
for Congress appear to be reelected /;
Speaker Blaine coming tolerably
near his old majority, and Chandler's
son-in-law squeezing through over
Pike. Neal Dow is reported as giving
effective aid to the Grant candidate
on temperance grounds, and in some
quarters it is quite evident that the
voters subordinated national to local
considerations. Five dollars have
been spent by the Grant managers
for every one they spent in 1868, and
fifty for every one spent by the LIB
erals. The resources of Il treasury
filed by taxing every civil official, at
home and abroad, the influence of a
Post-Office department whose head
took the field to command i'll person,
the power of a twentyfour hundred
mile coast dotted with Custom-houses,
the votes of tlie4iIittery Navy Yard,
and the resources sYfsa political organ
ization well nigh perfect, coupled
with proscriptive pressure never
equaled, have thus fallen over 1000
short of the majority of four years
ago.
OF the difficulties and discourage
ments under which this result was
attained we do not now need to
sneak. The Cincinnati movement is
revolution, and revolutions do not
begin in populations like that OF
Maine. It has been an absurd say
ing, plagiarized from the old one
about the Keystone State, that as
Maine goes, so goes the Union. But
the Union did not go as Maine did in
1856, any more than III 1S46. IN fact
it has often been a follower, not 8
leader of political change IA measure
of the current, not Il means OF starting
| it. Let us use it as. measure:
! We may estimate the change on the
vote of Maine, wrought by the Liberia
| Republican movement, at about five
per cent. We may be certain that in NJ
| other part of the Union will tht
! change be less s;-in few so small

The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-09-21

The Shreveport Times says of the
crops: One of the leading planters in
this parish specially impressed itnpon
us the other day that we request the
pious people of both city and country
not to offer up any petition for Fain.
Indeed, II heavy rain now would do in
ealculable injury to the cotton. Near
~ all that will ever open is open now,
while the fields are banks of dust. A
rain would not only beat out and into
the ground great deal of the staple.
but would cover with dirt that left on
the stalks. The result would be sncll
crop as that of 1858, we believe,
which was about one half dirt. Itwas
no unusual thing that year for 200 and
800 pound bales to be packed in press
es that would only turn out $50 pound
bales of clean cotton
| A large planter on the river above
/ here Informs lis that the worms have
completely stripped the cotton in that
neighborheea, and that no crop will
be made. Where three weeks since,
he expected to gather bale to the
acre lie will not gather half q bale.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-09-21

Pennsylvania, Indiana, Connecticut,
California, and Alabama, from the
Grant column to its opposite. Add
these to the States already Democrat
ic, and we have l55 out of the l64
Electoral votes necessary to choice.
But Missouri is clearly ours, and her
fifteen votes leave but fourteen more
to make up, after the Grant rout in
October, out of New Hamshire, Rhode
Island, Arkansas, North Carolina,
Ohio, Illinois, and others scarcely less
probably ours.
The lesson, the,. of the main cleo
tion is plain 1T reveals a percentage
of change, which, with proper organ
ization and work, gives us PennsyIva-
MIA and Indiana in October. After
these, the battle wins itself.

This is from the New York 1fibane
of Saturday before last:
We reprint to-day, from the Name
Standard, a well considered and rea-
sonahle estimate of what the Liberals
and Democrats of the State may prop
erly expect. 1t shows beyond question
that if they are able to reduce the ay-
erage majority of 10000 twenty-five
per cent, bringing it down to $4,000 a
similar decease of the Grant vote all
over the Union would insure the cleo
tion of Greeley and Brown by an
overwhelming majority of the electoral
vote. 1t would be fairer to compare
with the last State election majority
in year VIXEN Grant was n c;tntsittatc.
The State was then carried by 20,403,
and twenty-five per cent reduction
even on this would indicate percent
age, which, if carried throughout the
Union, would far more than insure our
triumph. We should like to see the
Liberals do much better than this, but
in-view of the tyrannical organization
of the Grant party and their lavish
expenditure of money in the cam
paign, it is possible that they may fal
little below it. They have made :
most gallant fight, but the odds were
overwhelming from the start.
