The President of the Convention said it was
necessary that he put to the House the motion
to make the vote unanimous.
The question was put and the President an
nOunced the result to be unanimous vote.
At this juncture a movement was made look
ing to the Endorsement by the Convention of
Grant and Colfax for denomination. Some
active and good deal of passive opposition
being arrayed against the Introduction of the
subject at that time, Gen. Lew Wallace, of
Montgomery, withdrew motion to suspend
the rules, and the resolution of endorsement
was referred, under the rule, to the Committee
on resolutions without debate.
The following nominations were made for
Secretary Of State:
Hon. w. w. Curry, of Vigo, George Arnold,
Of Wells, General William T. Spice

THE ALABAMA TREATY.
NO ILL-FEELING AT ALL-SHARP WORDS FOR THE
BRITISH CABINET ONLY.


From the London Times, Feb G.
An a5ortive end of the Washington Treaty
must provoke great regret on both sides the
sharper feeling. 1t need not and ought not.
There has been q mistake, and when this is
said all is said, at least so far as regards the
International aspect Of the misfortune. We
may justly feel some indignation at the negli-
gence or obtuseness OF the commissioners
who have led us into such an unpleasant posi-
ton, but we will not throw any Of the blame
on the American government, and we submit
that England is equally free from any share in
the fault OF the miscarriage. We go little
cause; but we can appeal to . very compassion
ate and neutral foreigner whether there has
been any unseemly vehemence ON this side Of
the Atlantic in reference to the probable sus-
pension of proceeding under the treaty. Pub
lie opinion has made itself felt very clearly,
but there has been no osacsy agaiaa President
Grant, his Cabinet, or the american people. The
strongest sentiment prevalent here-the senti-
ment, in fact, uppermost in all our minds
has been jealousy lest the national honor
of the ministry to notify the necessity of retir-
ing from the convention which had so different
a meaning in the minds of the two govern
ments. We could not go on treating the
agreement as binding when it had, In truth,
ceased to be an agreement pit all. Respect for
States required prompt remuneration of the
ambiguous reference, and If sharp words have
been used they have been addressed to our own
government, but to them only. II any other
judgment on our conduct has been formed in
the United States, it must be based upon ex-
tracts telegraphed across the Atlantic which
did not give the full sense of their authors.
We can not but think that the energetic re-
mpnstrances unanimously addressed to our
Government have by this time convinced them
that clear and uneOuivOca1 action ia the only
remedy for their past errors, and the only
means of preventing worse misf0rtunes; yet
We confess that we desire greater assurance of
this decision than the public yet possess. Com
Portable words of no particular meaning can
serve no purpose but mischief in the position
into which We have been brought; perplexity
and hesitation would simply conduct us to q
point from which we could not retreat with
honor. If We would avoid, As all must desire
to avoid, irretrievable entanglements, we must
recognize the truth that the time for consider
alton has passed and the hour of decision
come

THE MORTON-SCHURZ DEBATE.
Special Dispatch to the Mis- souri, n ,.r st.

Special Dispatch to the Mis- souri, n ,.r At
WASHINGTON, February 2l.-The debate in
the Senate is practically ended. All Schurz's
glory won yesterday was ruthlessly DESTROYED
to-day by the evidence furnished BY the War
Department. The main reliance of Schurz
and his hackers to prove the completely of the
government in the sale of arms direct to France
was the letter of Remington to the French
authorities, in which he boasted of his infu-
ence with this government, and led the French
authorities to believe that he was dealing d.
rectly with it. Schurz was provoked into re.
iterating this evidence to-day, with flourish
OF defiance, when Morton crushed him BY read
ing letter from Remington to the War De-
partment, written after the Department had
refused to sell arms to him, because he was
the agent of France, in which he bitterly COM
planned Of the injustice of the treatment of
the War Department, which he said compelled
him to buy arms Of third parties and paw two
prices
Sehurz looked blank at this development,
and had no reply. If Remington was good ev-
idence for Schurz, he was certainly good evil
dence for the government. SchurZ's new evil
dence which he brought forward YESTERDAY.
was dissected, and found to be extracts from
letters in French newspapers. This he had the
impudence to put forward as evidence to prove
the improper action of the government but
the most remarkable development was yet to
come A vote was taken on c nkling's amend
ment, which provides that any unlawful
communication between Senators and French
agents or spies shall be subject to inquiry.
which was agreed to-Sprague alone voting

became frightened and proposed to withdraw
the preamble. This was received with indig
nant protests Mr.. Sherman who has kept
out of the debate, denounced It rs q great
waste of time, rebuked Mr.. Sumner with great
severity of manner by Indignantly Objecting to
such proceeding, after such causeless attacks
had been based upon it.
