ncse bill without remonstrance without notice. not
only breaks all obligations Of treaty or general com
ity. but it strikes a whole friendly and honorable
! nation in the face.
Mr. Blalne'5 quotation from Judge Curtis is wide
| of the mark The question before the court was
whether a provision of a treaty could be made the
ground IN civil suit in courts for recover
/ ing dutIe, levied by Act Of Congress IN excess OF
treaty rates. Judge Curtis decided that the ques-
| tlou whether the Act of Congress was consistent
with the treaty was not COgulZ1ble m the courts
No question Of international duty or ot the blhdihR
force of treaties as between nations was raised or
! discussed Ii was from first 10 last mere question
/ of pr vate Tlght-Whcthcr our own importers
could set mp the treaty against an Act oI
/ Congress. No one questions the power oI our ','-
crnment 10 break all her treaties to-day, aud tdJ

/ tIon made by MIR. Blame The question OF her
