into any irritation of feeling over the
4 action OF the British Governments IN the
lpresent case; nor do we believe that
any exists between the authorities sof
1.-THE two Governments.
The law of asylum has always been re-
garded as one of the most delicate and
important branches of International ju-
lrisprudence. There is in human nature
an instructive impulse prompting a
lguilty man to flee from the scene OF his
crime, though as yet secret and un-
known. 'sThe wicked fee when no man
Ipursueth." The first offender against
criminal law betook himself forthwith to
flight. and became fugitive from just
| ice. And the offender as naturally di-'
rects his fight so as tosecufe an asylu
under some foreign jurisdiction. Among
all nations, even among the semi-ciyil-
lied, the right of asylum has always
been held sacred. As;society advanced,
and the relations of political communi-
ties became more intimate and fixed,
the necessity of regulating this right, so
as to prevent its abuse, became most OBJ
yious; and hence has arisen the forn1a-
ton of International treaties to give ex-
preston to public law upon the subject
of reclaiming and surrendering fugitives
from justice.
Among the older authorities there
were many who held that one govern
ment is bound as of duty under interna-
tional law, Independent Of treaty stipu-
lations, to surrender fugitive from JUS
|tice on demand of another government
whose laws had been violated. The
authority of such eminent names as
Vattel. Grotius, Martens, Heineccius,
and Burleinaqui may be cited as main
tanning the surrender of such fugitive
offenders as ga duty of common and in
dispensable obligation" by the law OF
nations. Our own Kent has likewise
inclined to the same doctrine, as may be
1 seen from his opinion as Chancellor in
The Matter Of Wdshbal1h 4 Johns-Ch,
i Rep. 107.
i Lord Coke, and Wynne, maintained O
contrary opinion; and many cases have
been noted as showing the diversity Of
opinion among public jurists upon this
question:. But the whole current Of
modern authorities goes to affirm that
The right OF one government to demand
of another the surrender of fugitiyes
from justice, independent of treaty, does
not rest upon any obligation imposed by
international law; but subsists merel,
by the comfy of nations. Our own Gov
eminent has always maintained that nc
foreign State, in the absence Of treaty
mas perfect and absolute right to de
mand of another the surrender OF q
fugitive criminal; though conceding this
imperfect right resting on comity and
mutual good will. And such may be
considered here as the settled doctrine
| Com. u. Deacon, 10 s. 6 n. 1875; U. S. .,
DavtS, 2 Sumner, 4e2.l
lt is clear, therefore, that it is to oul
treaty .stipulations we must look to gov
4 ern in this matter: and If Ehey are fount
imperfect, or rendered Ineffective b,
statutory law, we must amicably pro
ceed to frame new treaties, in order t.
con form to the universal law of asylum
and protect each nation from the felon
OF the other.

Two BABIES OF the same sex were
born Of two mothers at the same hour
in a clearinghouse at Des Moines, the
other day. Phe volunteer nurse for the
occasion took charge Of the newcomers
at the same time. The result was, she
got them SO woiuNy mixed that nobody
could tell which baby belonged to which
mothers and the babies themselves stub
bornly refused TO testify ON the subject.
Now there is a case to which a Con-
gressional committee OF investigation
ought to be Immediately called, and de-
tectiyes summoned TO tell all about it.
No doubt but that Bell and Whitley
would swear that they were employed
beforehand to work the job up, and that
one OF the babies was born with a reye-
nue. stamp on Its nose, and the other
with postal card between its eyes.
Decidedly this is case Of crookedness
requiring scouts, spies and detectives
TO unrayel. Let Clymer and his wit
n nesses be sent for. No time to lose; the
babies are hungry, and nobody knows
their proper boarding-house.

ssMovED AND SEooNDED."-We pub
lish in another column an account of the
manner in which the City Of Philadel-
phia took a census of its population for
the present year. Blanks were pre-
pared under direction ola Committee OF
the City Council, distributed to every
house by the police officers, three days
afterwards the blanks were called for
and collected, clerks Immediately en-
ployed to count and tabulate these re-
turns, which were completed in four
days. So that in one weeks time and al
a cost of only one quarter paid by the
Government for the city's census in 1870,
| Philadelphia had a full and complete
census of her population for the Centen.
| NAL year.
Now tits .smoved and secondedo that
4 our City Of Cincinnati do the same thing
/ in like manner. 1t ought to be ascer.
| tanned and recorded as fact of great in
terest, just what our city's population is
at this Centennial period ~ our coun.
try's history. Some Of the babies born
in Cincinnati this year will perhaps live
to look upon another Centennial year;
and the little darlings might want to see
| in 1916 what was the population OF their
| native city in 1876; and it would be sad
to have them cry for this when their
wishes could be SO easily gratified.
1t would be a good thing for all our
| settles Of the frst-class having popu-
lation Of over one hundred thousand
to do the same thing this Centennial
year, and hand the record thereof down
10 pOsterity. -.

Tax judgments Against Churches and
Charitable Institutions.

Charitable Institutions.
We invite special attention to an item Of
information that has been furnished Us by
an eminent legal friend. We are informed
that the city authorities have. in violation
of all law and all decency, published as
defaulter for taxes every charitable and re-
ligious institution in this city; that further
more their proper law officer, viz, the City
Attorney, or assistant attorney, has taken
defaults in all such cases, and that he has
gone so far as to confirm those defaults
into actual judgments for so much money.
These are what may perhaps be properly
called snap Judgments, because IT the par
ties in charge of these interests had been
notified they certainly would have filed de-
fens es, and as certainly defeated the zeal
GUS efforts of these learned gentlemen. The
judgments could not have been obtained it
the public had known anything about the
job.
But there is very little use in now dis
cussing the manner of the wrong doing; the
question is, what, if any, is the remedy!
We will remark that these scandal0us judg-
ments can not be signed for several days to
come, and consequently new trials can be
applied for. Indeed, we are satisfied that
Judge Lynch will, if the matter be brought
to his attention, refuse to sign any such
judgments until ample time shall have been
given every body to apply for justice. By
fiction Of law the publication OF de-
faulters' list is supposed to be citation OF
every person, individually or corporate,
therein named, but, in point OF fact, when
certain esta blishments know themselves to
be exempt by law from taxation, they never
dream Of looking in the list for their
names, and consequently judgment
against them is virtually one without
nOtice.-MOY7ling Star.

The New iberia Sugar BOacl, staunch
Democratic organ, is getting Disguised
with the action of the Vigilants in its
neighborhood. They have been commit
ting some indiscreet actions. They i'm
prudently left alive some witnesses to tell
of their misdeeds, and they receive from
the newspaper q fitting rebuke:
A correspondent informs US that recently
q negro man by the name of Urbin. living
near Broussardvilie, was ordered away by
the vigilance committee and given ten days
to leave, for no other reason, It is said, than
simply that he had not settled in full with
one Of his employees on last years crop,
while at the same time he claimed his en-
ploye was indebted to him for provisions,
furnished during the year. After that the
whole matter was arranged and settled,
and Urbin will not be troubled.
Our correspondent says this same vigi-
lance committee, year ago. ordered
another negro man away from this parish
timber out of Vermilion bayou, near Pin
Hook, but since then they had written to
him to come back. Under existing circum-
stances, we have approved Of the organlza-
ton OF vigilance committees, and thought
them useful in helping the civil officers to
bring to justice all violators Of the law, but
such hasty and ill-advised action as that
taken by our Cote Gelee neighbors we must
condemn. We hope past mistakes will have
taught them prudence for the future.
The Lafayette Advertiser has something
to say on the same subject:
We need no lawless tribunals in this par
ish The officers are competent and willing
to perform their duties, and would be glad
to accept the aid of ell good citizens in en-
forcing the laws. There are no evils ex-
listing here that can not be remedied in the
regular manner. In all kindness to the
gentlemen of the vigilant committees, We
would advise them to reconsider their sen.
tence of expulsion from the parish OF man
accused of not paying debt. And we
entirely to assisting the officers. and to
abolish their jurisdiction of all cases, civil
and criminal, or else disband.
