EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY INVOKED FOR
THE MoDocs BY TIE PEACE TAKERS. -
A number of letters has been received
from Quakers and other friends of the
Indian pence policy throughout the
country. asking Executive clemency in
behalf Of the Modoc Indians lately on
trial for the murder OF General Canby.
Many Of these letters raise the question
that the trial of the Offenders was illegal,
under the decision Of the Supreme
Court in the Mulligan case. that the
civil courts being open, the military
tribunal had no jurisdiction. Another
question raised is that General Candy
was killed while acting aa q peace COM
missioner, and not as On officer of the
army in war. These questions will
come directly before the President for
his action, as the court for tho trial of
the Modocs was organized in pursuance
of ON opinion of the Attorney. General
that the military court had jurisdiction
in the premises. The Judge Advocate
General of the army takes the same
view as the Attorney General, and will
approve the findings of the court, ns will
also the Secretary of War. The Presi-
dent, however, must approve and order
the execution OF the sentence, and upon
him will be pressure to set aside the
findings. The friends of the pence
policy declare that when all the argu-
ments ore presented to the President,
he will not order the execution of the
sentence Of death, in view of the doubt
full legality OF the tribunal before which
the trial took place. On the other
hand. old army officers declare that the
President will be guided by the opinion
OF the Attorney General, already rem.
dered, and his own sense Of justice; that
the prisoners were guilty of every vio-
lation OF the rules of civilized warfare
by violating flag of truce, and, there.
fore. were subject to trial by military
law.

FRAECE-HRNRI V.-The wisest and
beat men in France are looking for the
speedy return to the throne of his
fathers of Henry Duke de Ohambord,
grand nephew OF Louis XVI, and head
of the house of Bourbon. There are
some 80 foolish as to think that the
best educated men in France who look
for his return as the harbinger OF now
gl6ries for France. consider that he has
"Divine Right" to the throne, ire
spective Of the will of the French peo.
pie. Nothing in the world is more alb
surd. The Legitimists support Henri
Nv on altogether other reasons, based
on principles Of human law. It is that,
centuries ago, monarchy being the ma
tural form of the French nation, and
that nation not wanting to be tormented
by wars Of succession, laid it down in
their Constitution, that the succession to
to their throne should be by heirs male,
aud next in the oldest born of the Oldest
branch of the royal family.
This was agreed to- by France, when
she was self governing nation--a ma
tion suijuris. Legitimists hold, and in
perfect accordance with facts, that
France has not been self-go verniug
nation since The e1ecrabie murder OF
Louis XVI. They hold that, since
then, Franco has been governed by fac
tions and parties, never by her own
quiet and strong autonomy. The brief
reigns of Louis XVIII and OF Charles
y, offer no exceptions to this, because
ench Of those monarchs had the weak
ness to accept the revolution, that had
dislocated France, as the source of their
authority. Louis XVIII had the weak
ness to accept the throne, not by right

Constitution Of France. An unwritten

are. He is understood to have learned
how badly sundry of bis ancestors

a COMMERCIAL COSUNDRUM The fol-
lowing from tue cashier of Southern
bank has been often answered in these
columns:
South CAROLINA, August Is, 1873.
EDITOR OF THE JOCRS.4L oF. COMMERCE:
In answer il your columns to the oues-
ton put below would, I am sure, be
considered final, if not satisfactory, to
any one who reads the J0uyU0l Of Com
Merce. There is not shadow of doubt
upon my mind as TO your decision; but
it seems that my opinion in the premises
is not shared by all my colleagues here
Hence the reference to SO acknowledged
standard Of authority as yourself:
Can q bank receiving for collection n
draft upon house here, "payable with
current rate Oi exchange on New York "
refuse as payment therefor the check OF
solvent bank for the face thereof,
drawn upon bank of undoubted credit
i'll New York, and compel tho payer to
buy its own check at one-eighth per
cent. more premium? II the bank
stands upon the point that check is
not money, ard tie payer tenders bills
for the iace ofsthe draft plus one quar-
ter per cent. premium, which is the rate
at which other banks in the city ore
checked, can the former legally refuse
such IL tender? an early answer will
oblise "CASHIER.
REPLY Where q note or draft is pny-
able ''in exchange on New York, tie
tender OF ary first class sight bill on
this city is lega! ana sufficient. Where
it is payable with current rates of ex.
change Oh New York" this language
implies that the drawee is to pay tie
face Oh the daft in legal tender cur
rrncy. and to add TO the amount enough
to cover the current rate of exchange.
The proper legal tender is the currency
for the whole SIM; but lest there may
be some trouble in proving the suti :.
cheney OF the addition, it is customary,
where the parties cannot agree upon the
rate, to purchase an actual bill on New
York from drawer in good standing,
and tender that in payment. If no OBJ.
lection is made to tho standing Of the
drawer, that would be sufficient legal
tender, and o protest of the draft in re-
tuSal OF such an o1fer would be ut the
cost and risk OF the holder. The latter
always has the call in settlement of suoh
O transaction. The drawee Of draft
always prefers TO settle in cash with the
holder, Mt the full current OF exchange,
since he must endorse the bill he ten
ders. if that be insisted on; and it fol.
lows, therefore, that the bill must be
first class, and the terms Of the holder
exorbitant, if the drawee chooses this
form OF payment.

FRENCH AND SPANISH 1NTR1GUEs In
addition to the other embarrassmenis
and perils OF the Spanish Republic, it
is now threatened with All insidious in
huence on the side OF France. The re-
ports that the French Government, or
at least some Of its influential members,
are secretly aiding the Carlists, are tax
ing stronger shape week after week.
These refer to underha1d means. The
open demonstration is to take the form
of recognition Of the Car!ists rs bel
ligerents. although Don Carlos and his
forces arc confined to narrow strip OF
territory ut the foot Of the Appeoines,
along the French frontier, and are not
really legitimate subjects Of recognition.
But these secret intrignes Arc as signifi-
cant OF danger to the French Ecpablic
as they are to that of Spain. If Mac
Mahon is ouly the preface to the resto-
ration OF the Bonapartist Empire, or the
Bourbon monarchy in modified form,
according TO the recent understanding
between the Count of Paris and Count
Chambord, it is quite clear that it would
never do to have q Spanish Republic in
existence on the Southern frontier OF
France. The clearing of this latter out
OF the wuy would, therefore, seem to be
one OF the most natural preliminaries to
the restoration Of either the empire or
the Bourbon monarchy in France. This
appears to be the most sinister aspect OF
this latest phase Of French and Spanish
news.
