/ pose is now on his way TO Siberia bearing the
testimonials voted by congress 10 those who
generously succored the survivors OF the un-
fortunate Jeanette expedition. IL is graft
! flying to revert TO the curdiality our inter
course with Spain. The long pending claim
! of the owners of the ship UnmasOnic for loss
/ suffered through the admitted dereliotion of
I the Spanish authorities on the phil
/ lipine islands has been adjusted by
I arbitration and an indemnity award.
/ TIE principle OF arbitration i'll such cases, to
whlca the United states has long ana CON
stautv adhered, thus receives fresh and
gratifying confirmation. Other questions
/ with Spain have been disposed OF or are un-
/ der diplomatic consideration with a view 10

! OF Jan. 2 and Feb. b. 1854, has been found
! Inadequate to the commercial needs of the
! United States. and the Spanish Antilles and
/ the terms Of the agreemeat are subjected to
! conflicting Interpretations in those islands.
