FRENCH sPOLIATION CLAIMS.

In the court of claims at Washing
ton, Judge Davis delivered the opinion
OF the court in relation to the liabihty
OF the government for the French
spolialion claims, in which the chief
Justice and all the judges concur. After
deciding that the statute giving the
court jurisdiction required an exami-
nation of the validity OF the claims as
against France aud the assumption Of
the responsibility for them by the e.
>. IN the treaty of 1900, the opinion
sets forth the obligations assumed bv
the two governments in the treaties of
l7S, by which France pledged herself
to secure our independence and we un-
dertoOk to guarantee her American
possessions and to give her other speci-
al privileges. Following the history of
the two nations after our peace with
Great Britain, it shows the illegal at
tacks npOn American commerce by the
French revolutionary government and
our failure to abide by our promises to
France made in l778, and then con-
cludes that by the treaty of 1900, as
shown by that instrument itself and
the negotiations which led 10 it, the
spoliation claims were surrendered in
consideration that the United States be
released from any obligations under the
treaties of l77S, and the court, after
discussing the law, is of the opinion
that the claims are valid obligation
against this country, which sacrificed
the rights OF its individul citizens to
secure great national advantage. Con-
siderable space is given to the exami-
nation OF the relations of the two cOun-
tries between 1898 and 1900, which, it
was said by the government counsel.
amounted to a state of war, SO that any
claims for seizures then made would be
invalid. The court holds that while
the relations were strained almost to
the point of war there was no solemn
war which made every citizen of one
country the enemy of every citizen of
the other, annulled treaties and
legitimatized the seizures. They also
hold that the treaties of 1903 and 1881
with France and the treaty of 1919
with Spain do not apply to the spolia-
ton of claims, and therefore the claim
ants should recover. The claims arose
from seizures by French privateers of
American merchant vessels upon the
high seas between 1893 and 1901. They
were pressed by the United States upon
'''SS, "h'iO IL nuCC uTScu OtueT uc-
mands upon us; finally by the treaty of
$500, ratified in 1901, the two sets of
claims were set off one against the
other and dropped from International
controversy. Then the owners of the
spoliation claims began to urge them
upon the United States, upon the
ground that by surrendering the rights
of individual citizens for a valuable
national benefit the United States be-
came bound to pay the citizens injured.
MANY reports have been made in con-
gress in favor of this view and but
three against it, and those three were
made prior to the publication of the
correspondence on the SUBJ
Iect. Two acts were passed providing
tor payment, but one was vetoed by
President Polk, the other by President
Fierce. Finally congress, by an act
approved by President Arthur, sent the
matter to the court of claims for exam
luaiion

Parted.

The silver brooks will miss thee
The breeze that used to kiss thee,
And ruifie with soft caress thy curls of
sunny hair:
When the early dew drops glisten
On the roses. they will listen
For thy step upon the garden walk, thy
laughter in the air.
The meadows gay with flowers,
The summers leafy bowers
VIII know thy Joyous smiles no more: the
woodlands stand fOrlOrn;
hear the soft complaining
Of birds, from mrth refraining,
lhat greeted with their carols sweet tby
waking every morn.
Poor mother! hnsh thy weeping
Above thy darling sleeping,
Nor iret with aught of earthly grief the still
ness where he lies.
Flowers in his little fingers,
Where the rose flush still fingers,
or the angels are his playmates on the plains
Of Paradise.

lFrom the BROOKLYN Magazine.l
This is her dainty room,
Where Youth and beauty find their perfect
bloom;
This is her cosy chair;
How oft her form has nestled softly therei
Here is her cleaning glass,
BY which her graceful figure used to pass;
And. though she be away,
1t seems her smiles are there, and still will
stay.
These are her favorite books,
The pages longing for her loving looks.
Here is her happy bed,
The pillow where she nightly rests her head
She comes-her step know;
Bless thee. sweet room! Alas, that must
go!
