The Central American Troubles.

The statement that the policy to be pur-
sued by this Government in reference TO
tho Central American troubles was deter
mined upon at yesterdays Cabinet meeting
Is not confirmed by any momber of the
Cabinet. The policy to BIO pursued has al
ready been shown by Secretary Bayard's
letter and the instructions issued by tho
Secretary OF tho Navy
Rear-Admiral Jouott commanding the
North Atlantic Squadron, now at New Or
leans, yesterday telcgraphed 20 Commander
Clark, OF the Alliance, instructing him to
proceed to Cartagena and Barranqullla,

which have been seized by the insurgents
without compensation may be fOrcibly re-
covered, aud says that the United Magda.
lena Steam Navigation Company of New

tary Of State to the seizure ofthoir steamers
by an armed force.

GarIand's First
Appearance Before That Body AT.
ter the War.
In looking over some old Supreme Court
reports THE CRITIC reporter discovered a
decision in regard to Attorney General Gar
land, which Is Of particular interest just
now. The decision was rendered short
time after the war. Before the late un-
pleasantness Attorney General Garland had
a number of cases before the United States
Supreme Court. He had been paid por-
tion of his fees, but the cases had not been
decided.
Nothing was done with them during the
war After the surrender Mr.. Garland came
to-Washington and asked to be allowed to
practice before the Supreme Court in order
that no might wind up the
cases which were in his charge. He could
not take the iron -clad oath because he had
borne arms against the United States.
The modified oath had not then been en-
acted. General Garland's request was for
a long time considered by tho court. 1t
finally decided that as an attorney before
that body could not be considered an oili-
Ger of the Government, therefore ii was not
necessary that he should take an oath.
The present Attorney General under that
decision resumed the practice which had
been Interrupted by the war. He was the
first lawyer who served in the Confederate
army who was allowed that privilege.
