Peace Negotiations.

The British Ministry appears to have
reached the conclusion that its only escape
from the difficulties of the Turkish question
must be by assuming the attitude of the
most vigorous of the peacemakers, and the
world is consequently called to witness the
queer anomaly that England, which sup
ported the Ottoman government in its re-
sistance to o joint programme OF reforms
which might have averted the war, now prac-
tically compels that government to accept
terms of peace that will be palatable to the
friends OF Servia. On Wednesday of last
week the Sultan's Ministers were determined
not to grant an nrmistice, and to propose to
the representatives in Constantinople of all
the great Powers terms of peace that it was
known beforehand could not be accepted.
In other words, Turkey was determined to
continue the war, to crush Servia and to
trust to the mutual jealousy the great
Powers have of one another to prevent their
acting in concert to restrain her. But she
did not notice that there was new element
in the case; she did not consider that indigna-
ton which her acts had excited in England.
Her Britannia Majesty's Ministers, how
ever, considered it, and when they learned
on Wednesday night of the refractory tenn
per in COnstantipople they perhaps sent
some peremptory messages thither; and
then, in order to keep up the appearance of
not seeming to govern Turkey altogether by
their own will, they invited the other minis
ters to join Sir Henry Elliot in new remon-
strances. All that was done, and the Turk
has consequently modified his course and is
likely to accept moderate terms. If the
whole trouble passes away thus the British
government may congratulate itself that it
has escaped from q great difficulty very
adroitly for to have stopped the pressure
on Turkey by making the war, and to avoid
recriminations for the war by making peace
would be to succeed, as the world goes, in
the way Of diplomacy But the success is
not o solid one. Just now the discussion,
it is true, is not on the original issue it is
on making peace and saving Servia- But
the other issue will not down. Peace once
made, Turkey herself will be the first by
her acts to force the great States to return
once more to the consideration of that gross
misgovernment and oppression that led to
the insurrection and England cannot inter-
fere again to save Turkey.

chosen representatives in an international
match We like the Irish all the better from
meeting them at the butts. and they feel not
less cordially toward us because of our sue
cesses. Yesterdays result cannot fail TO in

participated in the match and Of all who
In every respect it was a well-contested trial
of skill, and we have every reason to antici-
pate that it will leave no heartburnings
behind it.
The impetus given to manly and athletic
sports by these matches is theme upon
years ngo few Americans could shoot Mt eight
hundred or q thousand yards, fewer still
could handle the oar with skill, and none

and dexterity of polo. Now we are match
for all comers, which. is saying great deal
when our rifemen are pitted against antago-
nists who can make fifteen bulls-eyes in sue
cession and compelled to contend with
teams which exceed the best scores ever
made at Wimbledon. With such results
attained in 80 short time and with so little
practice, with an almost equally brilliant
record with the oar and the sail,
the future must be as rich In promise
for US as it is for our more experienced
rivals. Tho only trouble is that the
standard is becoming 80 high that the next
generation will be compelled to take up the
plant of the old theatre-goer, who never

ing. If international contests ever fall into
desuetude it will be out Of despair at
reaching the brilliant records of the present
epoch.

Tweed's Extrnxlition.

It seems waste Of energy for any one to
trouble himself as to how or why it is that
Tweed is surrendered to us by the Spanish
government. There is no doubt of the fact
that he is to come hither, and the fact is
what is important; and the whole public
must equally rejoice that, whether his COM
ing is or Is not an embarrassment to any
person or any party, the discredit of his
escape through the slippery ways of our
local prison keepers may yet be effaced by
his punishment for tho offences of which he
has been guilty. 1t is, however, but natural
that it should stir the wonder of the people
to find man thus snapped up and handed
over to justice by the authorities OF one Of
tho countries with which we have no treaty
for the surrender of fugitive offenders. and
country within whose limits it is commonly
accounted that q criminal from this country
is safe. There is no end of queer surprises
in the administration of justice, but it is
very queer surprise indeed that if Tweed
had gone straight to England country
with which we have treaty-he would have
been safe and might, like several other fugi-
tives, have snapped his fingers at us, while
his roundabout journey to q country with
which we have no treaty simply lands him
at last in Ludlow street. In Spain the gov
ernment order on a subject of this nature is
supreme. Though nominally o constitu-
tional country the habeas corpus is not
thorn in the side of justice, and there is no
point of support in the law to protect
fugitive rogue from the supreme authority.
An extradition treaty in such circumstances
is not necessary. II is only necessary to
have the good will of the government. and
that, it appears. had been gained by us in
this case by an act Of the same nature, our
government having delivered to the Span
ish authorities fugitive from justice. 1t is
said that in SO doing our government arbi-
trarily trampled on the law, which might be
a nice point for courts to deal with, but its
discussion elsewhere would hardly be profit
able. 1t must be remembered. however,
that Mr.. Seward was not ignorant of our
laws and not the man to wantonly offend
them.
