If Ciccro's judgment of human ma

liberal exercise of the g,atiu Del than
those Democratic papers whose utter

The Case Stated.

The Cincinnati Enquirer thus plainly
states the case of the controversy between
the United States government and Great
Britain:
The following are the little indirect
claims which the United States proposed
that John Bull should settle at the Geneva
Conference:
l. Claims for direct losses growing out of
the destruction of vessels and their cargoes
by insurgent cruisers.
2. National expenditures in pursuit of
those cruisers.
3. Loss in the transfer of the American
commercial marine to the British flag.
4. The enhanced payments of insurance.
5. The prolongatiOn of the war, and the
addition of a large sum to the cost of the
war and the suppression of the rebellion.
The moderation of the above is remark
able. 1t only constitutes bill probably as
large as Germany presented against France
after its conquest of that power. 1t is very
surprising that Bull don't Immediately hand
us his check for a thousand millions of dol
lars or so, without making any fuss about
it. We are amazed at the fOrbearance of
our Government. Why not ask Bull to pay
the whole expenses of the war and have
done with it?
