allowed. The vIoe Consul a

opportunity allowed. The Vice Consul at
St. Pierre Is j. j. Ciceron. Some cases OF
arms were consigned 70 him while the pms.
sions Of the people were still hot, He
boarded the vessel having the arms, and
directed them through the Custom House.
As soon as the news Of the arrival Of the
arms was known, q warrant was sworn out
for the arrest OF the Vice Consul and he
was locked up, but admitted to bail after
an imprisonment Of two days. The Pro.
cureur Of the Republic, who signed the
order otimprisonment and made the arrest
In person, trampied upon all the rights Of
immunity inscribed in the Consular Con.
vention between France and the United
States. The Vice Consul was simply nc.
cused oil being in possession Of implements
Of war, which constitutes in the EXTREMIST
case only au offence, and the immanities
accorded to consuis are never forfeited ex.
cept bya certain crime. II was evidently
to please the black popuiRce that Mr. Cice-
ron was thus treated, and the best proof OF
It that can be given Is the fact that after
his arrest, judicial quests were made in the
houses Of several Of the white residents.
The Vice Consul was released on bail ut
the instance Of the American Consul, Cap.
tain Garfield, q relative Of the late Presi.
dent. The Vice Consul has sent the par.
ticulars Of his arrest TO the State Depart.
ment at Washington.
