views ibis part of tha subject, particularly op a
demand hat been made by our Government upon
ihe Uuramneut of Great Britain for explanation
ss ta the outrage committed, tha answer to which
it ia hoped will prove satisfactory.
Ai to the other points preeraled io the deetend
made by the British Minister for the - liberation "
of Aleiander MacLeod, the Committeo believe the
of tb case to be, that the steamboat was seised
ad burnt as stated bef tre, sad that a eitiaaa or
citifiwof Nsw York vera murdered io the affray.
And there were reseons to indues a belief that
Macleod wee portietpt crimU. K He was at first
arretted, sod upon yarioos testimony being taken,
was then discharged. He wss afterwards arrested
i saeond lime. Upon the evidence Ibenpresetitad,
be wu imprisoned to swait bis trial. Tha re wu
oo invssioa of British territory to seize or tabs him,
Bui epos his beinf, voluntarily within our territory,
ha wu arrested ss any ciliseo of the United States,
charged with a -similar ofieoes, might have been.

Great Britain, or because be coaimiited Ihe crime
at the lostigstion or under ths authority of British
Provincial officers ; much lees do we know of any
law that would justify the Pres'deot to deliver him

verntiiettV If we bad been at oped waf with Great
Britain, aod MacLeod bad committed the cflencee
charged, theo be might have (alleo under the rulee
and regulations of war, and been treated as a pri
mosr of the United Sutoe Government, and would
have sees subject lo the laws of natiooa in war.
But as the alleged criminal acts, in which MacLeod
it charged lo bo implicated, wdre committed In
prvf-xind pesce, it is a crime, as far as be rosy be
cuocenwd, ad- IV against the M peace and digvitr "
of the Suis of Nsw York, and her criminal juris-

DEMOCRACY WElfA VE EVER HAET
The National Intelligencer establishment, which
stands decided of record to the Bank of ths United
Stales for about ft90,OUU, (double its worth.) announces,
with official ceremony, we sew Cabinet. . Iti$ of
nacesswy (says tbs organ st tbs new dynasty) toot

expression of the list deeieiun of the Exseo'.ive c-
' saltations, Tbe Madaoaisa could only my that h ie
earreatfy reported that Geo. tUirison bee made the
following appointments." The National Intelligyeeer
not only has " the pleasure ot being able to inform our
readers that m all probability tbs Cabinet of the aew
Prrsidant, to for to depend sa kirn will be thus com
aused," but, aa we have seen, andertakes to explain
why it is made before the President ie maogureted.
-We paint lo these circumstances that the public m iy
onderstaad at sacs where to look for authentic ax post-
bona of lbs designs of the new-bora Cabinet
To some if may bs surprising tbat the dependent
Editors of tha Bank should bseome st once the sdopted
organ of sn Aawwatraiioe pledged to reform abuses.
Toss it seems a matter of coons. The cela sues
and abuses of tbe Bash's origin msde the new Admin-
---wirstion-end why shseld it aot employ ths w stresses!
which the Bank employed!
' But there is between ths Bsnk and the new mads
NKlionaries of tbs Government a relatioaship which
renders tbe kmditd condition ot ihe conductors of the
National Intelligencer one of perfect Wherhood.
' Mr. Webster, (the Premier) the whols world knows,
bas lived for yean spaa the Bank being its sitorney,
us counsellor, its Senator, ita envoy, its every liting.
If Mssaa Jeodonand Biddleeonld now be brought lethe
book before the lagialaiurs of Pennsylvania, it would
be found del the outfits which Mr. Webster bas levied
. oa tbe sjerchsaw, wars bagatelles compared with the
great aggregate sum which in tbs course of years, be
baa drawn from ths Bank. It m wash wholmale politi

Mr. Ball, the. new Secretary of War, ths public
cannot have forgotten, stands rscordsd, in Mr. Tyler's
report, aa eocoiniaodaled, ia "a fair kutimu tran$oe
tioa,n by tbe Bank, in just one thousand dollars more
than James Wataoa Webb. Ths Utter, when hs lorn,

with ofly4wo thousand dolls ra, Whin Mr. Bufl irsva
ceer his oppeeiiioa ia Congress to that institution, the
rsmiasioa waa baiaooed by mty-inreetniioasBdftcility.
As to pecuswry rslatmns of the subnrdinats mem-

Tbat the Bank orna should be tskon ss the or?sn

perfectly appropriate, and we could not but mil at
the weak attempt of the Madiwmian lo secure the sdp.
