The ( (overnrn-uit of the Cnited States would
feel justified in rotini; on th argument and
conclusion of Mr. Webster if tiie mob of
March 14, 1 VM, did not in some of its charac
teristics "infer trom the mob of l.'d. Hut it is
due to emir-- candor, due to this (iovernment,
and due to the iovernnient of Italy to punt
out certain ditlerences of which the Govern
ment of the Cnited Stales is honorably bound
tt take notice.
In the c:te the m ! of li."f Ir. Webster
asserts thai "no personal injury was offered to
any one;" that "the polic- and other lriral
atithorifies o:d all that nn, possible to pre
serve the peace and arrest the rioters; " that
"the mob acted in the heat of blood and not in
pursuance of any predetermined dan or pur
Hae of injury or insult;" that "the mob waa
i'ompoTHl .f irresponsible persons, t he names
of none nf whom are kii"'.ni to the Govern
ment of the Cnited States, nor, s.. far as the
fio erniL'cnt w Informed, to its officers or
ac'iit in N e u" ' r 1"H n s. ' '
As pro nply as possible after the lamentable
occurrence at New .rbins the President di
rected th" Att rney- t-'iieral to cause through
his department a lull injuiry to be made into
all fa- ts connected th' i'e.vith, and solicited his
opinion whether any criminal proceedings
would lie under th-- Federal laws in the
Federal courts against persons charged with
the killing of Italian suhjects. He has not
yet received theofiicial rep,rt. If it be fotind
that a pp'S-cuiion can he maintained under
the statutes i.f the Cnited States, the case will
be pr- scnted to the n-xt Grand Jury, neonpl
i:i' to the us'i;d m-'th'ls of erimiinil ad in i lus
tration. Hut it it shall be found, a.a seems
probable, that criminal pr-weelinis can only
(e taken in the court. of Louisiana, the
President can in this direction do no more than
urfe upon the State officers the duty of
promptly hr ;ni;i 11;' t he offenders to trial. This
was tone 1:1 his telegram to the Governor of
Louisiana as early a.s the loth of March.
li it shall result that the case can be proae
ri'ted only in the Mate courts of Louisiana,
an-1 the usual judicial investigation and pn-c-slure
under the criminal law is nut resorted
l, it w; 11 t .Jen be the duty of the Cnited SUtes
to consider whrili- r suuc other form of redress
may he a-ked. Ir is urvierstood that the State
(rrand Jury is iio-.v investigating tiie afJair
an-1 while it is possible that the jury may fail
to present indictments the Cnited States can
not assume that such will be the case.
The Cnited Stat- s did not by the treaty with
Italy Iwconie the insurer of the lives or prop
fiiy of ilidn subjects resident within our
territory. Ko Government is able, however
hih its civilization, however vigilant its
ptur-e sup rvisi ui, howc er severe its criminal
rodei and however prompt and inflexible its
citizens ntrainsT violence promoted by in
di ldual maiice or by sudden popular tumult.
The foreign resident must be content in such
cases t" share the same redress that is offered
by the law to the citizen, and ha-s no just cause
-it complaint or right to ask the interposition
of his country if the courts are equally open to
him for the redres of his j n j uries.
The treaty in the first, .second, third, and
notably iu the twenty -third articles, clearly
limits the right guaranteed to the citizens of
the commoting "u.ts in the territory of each
to equal treatment an 1 to free access to the
courts of justice. Foreign residents are not
made a favored class. It is not believed that
Italy would desire a more stringent construc
tion of her duty under the treaty. Where the
injury inflicted upon a foreign resident is not
t he act of t he rov ernment or of its officers, but
of an individual or of a mob, it is believed that
no claim tor indemnity can justly be made
unless it shall be mad. to appear that the
public authoriti- charged with the peace of
the community hav' connived at the unlawful
act. -r. having timely notice of the threatened
danger, have tbeen guilty of such gross negli
gence in taking the necessary precautions a.s to
amount to connivance.
If, therefore, it should appear that among
those killed by the mob at New Orleans, there
w ere some Italian subjects who were resident
or domiciled in that city, agreeably to our j
treaty with Italy, and not in violation of our
immigration lans, and who were abiding in
the peace of the Cnited States and obeying
the law s thereof and of the State of Louisiana, 1
and that the public officers charged with the
duty of protecting life and property in that
ciry con n i ved at the work of the mob, or upon ;
proper notice or information of the threatened
danger failed to take any steps for the preser- ;
vation of th- public peace, and afterward to
bring the guilty to trial, the President would, :
under such circumstances, feel that a case was
rata' l ished that should be submitted to the
ennsi deration of Congress with a view to the
relict of the families of the Italian subjects
who had lost (heir lives by lawless violence.
Accept sir, the renewed assurance of ray
hiiih consideration. James G. BLAIXE. j
niaine't. Keply In Rome.
The reply of the United States Secretary of
Mate, Mr. Blaine, to the Marquis di Iiudini's
Ust note on the subject of the New ( irleans
afl'air is the only important subject of conver
sation and newspaper comment throughout
Italy.
When it became known that the reply had
reached Italy, the Marquis di Hudini: the
United States Minister, ilon. A. ;. Porter,
and other persons holding positions which
would enable them to express valuable opin
ions upon the New Orleans dispute, were he
sieged with interviewers.
1 he substance of the opinion which the gen
tlemen referred to were able to express is that
the controversy is in course of adjustment,
and that so far as the future negotiations un
concerned the diplomats will seek chiefly to
establish and ma mtai n t he correct construct ion
of the various points of international law
which bear directly or indirectly upon the
Subject.
It is officially denied that there is any truth
in the report sent from Koine to the Iaily
Chronicle, of London, that the Hon. A. i.
Porter, the United States Minister to Italy, is
uon the point of departing from Rome on a
three months' leave of absence.
The Messagero says that Mr. Blaine's reply
to the Marquis di JUidini's last note evinces
the great desire of Mr. Blaine to elude the de
mands of the Italian Government, to escape
from indemnifying the families of the men
lynched at New I irleans, anil to refrain from
aecedinir to the Italian ( Iovernnient 's right to
intervene m the New ( irleans affair.
The Popolo Romano, also discussing Mr.
Blaine's reply, says that, in view of tin- tenor
of Mr Blaine's answer t" the Marquis di Ru
dini's note, it is difficult to form any idea a- to
how or when- the matter will end.
