is no more bound to repair them than to
indemnity citizens against destruction by
food or fire or earthquakes. The govern
ment as matter of grace. may by act of
congress give indemnity for such injuries,
but there is no existing statute authorizing
the payment of such claims. There is no
occasion for the further investigation of
these claims. They must be promptly re-
jected if presented anew to the accounting
officers. 1t would be impossible for any
government to make good such losses
during war, and especially a civil war. as
are here claimed. Certainly there is no

Last Nights Dispatches.
FOREIGN.


LONDON, April Sin the house of
lords this afternoon Beaconsfeld, after q
retrospect of the governments past policy,
criticised the treaty of San Stefano, draw
ing conclusions similar to those contained
in Salisbury's dispatch. Although every
treaty was deviatiug from the treaties of
1856 and 1871 he would not call them viola
tions, because had they been considered at
the congress- as England desired, they
might have been regarded as suggestions.
He showed that the possession of Bessa-
rabia was not trihing local interest.
Lord Palmerston had strongly insisted
upon its cession to Roumania, as involving
the Independent navigation of the Danube.
The congress could not take place after
Russia refusal to conform to her previou!
engagements and to the treaty of Paris
He pointed out various ways in which the
existing situation in the East lmperileC
the British Empire. He could not see
why England should be unarmed when al
the other powers were arming. Tht
British Empire must not only be enjoyed
but maintained.
