No company has ever visited Mobile that
has met with SO much success as this really
meritorious troupe Not only giving good
pantomime performance, but they always
present variety OF entertainment worthy
Of public patronage. The little girls in the
ballet are specially worthy OF attention, as
also the gvRnastic exercises and juggler-
inc. The iuggler in the troupe surpasscs
for skill the finest Efforts OF any Japanese
performer We have ever seen. IN The pan
fomime no better representation could tie
had than Mafilt, Bartholomew, Sanford

Hk RECOGNISED 1HE PoErRAn.-Dnfing The
war, whils Col. WEER's regiment, the 10th Kan
sas, was operating in the Indian Territory, one
day an Indian soldier came to the Colonel, for an
explanation of some duty which he had been set
to perform by some subordinate officer. After
getting an idea, from the Indian's imperfect Eng
lish, what be was driving at, the csaonel asked:
"Who gave you these ordosf"

Pending any Official statement from the Eng
lish government of its attitude with regard to
the Geneva Court of Arbitration, it will be well
to consider the exact position maintained by the
United States in the prosecution of her claims for
damages. Upon the ground that Great Britain
failed to perform its duties rs neutral in respect
to the rebel cruisers, during the late rebellion,
the United States demands that the Geneva Tri-
bunal shall award her damages. These damages
are direct and indirect. The direct damages grow
out of the actual direct losses in vessels and car
insurgent vessels, and the heavy national expen-
ditures caused by the pursuit in addition to
which the government puts in q claim for inter-
est, from an average day to be determined to the
day when the award is payable by the terms of
the treaty, namely: year after the date of the
award, the United States suggesting the LIST day
of July, 1862, as the most equitable day. The de-
tails of the direct losses to vessels and cargoes

The English advocates in their case object to
the payment of any damages caused by vessels
which were not both built and fitted out in the
English ports, and also probably object to the
payment of intcrests-and rightly, ~ no govern
ment pays interest on claims, claim not being .
debt until 1t 10 awarded by the court in which it
has been passed. Should the English govern
ment refuse to pay the damages fixed by the Ge-
neva court, it would be tautamount to war. in
which the United States would seek to collect
both the direct and indirect damages
The indirect damages, which have caused the
recent protests upon the part of the English press
may be classified as follows:
1. The loss in the transfer of the American
commercial marine to the British flag.
2. The enhanced payments of insurance.
3 The prolongation Of the war, and the ad-
dition of large sum to the cost of the war and
the suppression of the rebellion.
The history of these damages against which
the English object is substantially ~ follows:
The United States made an offer to the joint
hiRh commission to settle the whole matter by
accepting and expression of regret and the pay
meuf of sum in gross, and agree to fix the sum
with spccial reference to direct damages. II this
setflensent was mot made ct once, they reserved
the right to urge both direct and indirect DANA
eee. The eettlement was not made, the commits
sion simply adopting treaty which provided the
future means Of settling it-CASes1e 1r'ssse.
