Ee is ¢ ety? xo 4 — DevadaDaily Transeript. i under the jurisdiction of Portugal, anchored geuver found, But this is untrue. ~ehip of a brother of Jack Hays. Several eo WEDNESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 28, NEUTRAL RiGutTs.—Secret diplomacy is ® curious game, wearing a mysterious air until its purpose is acomplished and published to the world. It would seem that in a free country, where theory makes the will of the people law, some régard would be had for public opinion, and some means taken to collect it. If the Awerican people were called upon to deg@ide to-day whether they ~ would justify the seizure of the Florida in the port of Bahia, there is no doubt that their voice would be nearly: unanimous for such justification. But diplomacy may make apologies and reparations, and thus sanction the precedent that a mere pirate ship, acting without prize courts, burning its captures in mnid ocean, may take-refuge and refit in neutral ports. The ry sign between a privateer sailing under fhe «ommission of a responsible governm@pignd apa of Jeff. Davis’ pirate ships is as yarked as that between a regular soldicr-and the St. Albuns’ raiders, ’ The English. presa, true to its’ instincts against us, has seized upon the capture of the Florida-to exclaim against our lawless disregard of neutral rights, and loudly calls for English intervention) When:Mason and Slidell were captured, our Government refrained from following English precedents for such acts,. and -was consistent with its own record. Butas there is no precedent for the employment by any civilized government of sueh piratical-crafts as the Florida, there is noue for such captures. .The only instances nearly in spot are ‘those .furnished by the English government itself during the present century. “Ev 1807 that power seized the whole Danish fleet, at. Copenhagefi, nearly destfoying the city, and yet there had been and was profoynd peace between Denniark and England. The only plea was expediency. Seven years later two English men of war attacked an captured the U. 8. frigate Essex, after a bloody fight, in, SMheutral harbor of Valparaiso.— No apology or reparation was ever.made for this dastardly act. The same year the American privateer brig Samuel Armstrong wasin Fayal Roads, under the guns of the fortress. She wad attacked by boats from three British men of war, which she repelled, inflicting severe loss. The attack Wag renewed, although the government of Fayal remonstrated, and the British threatened to destroy the towh if the authorities interfered. The British were again repulsed by the privateer, but the men of war coming up within short range opened broadsides upon the gallant . ‘little ship, which was soon destroyed, as well as part of the town. The owners of the Samuel Armstrong have never sueceeded in getting any reparation for their loss. This bullying, piratical ‘mistress ofthe seas,” after violating neutrality in every quarter of the globe, and capturing and deetroying national vessels ad libertum) affects horror at the cutting out of a pirate ship by @ power of which it is jealous. We would like to see by what kind of logie it would Justify intervention in the Florida affair. It has been saill that by the seizure of the Florida our Government abandons the right to use privateers in any future war, because these may by this precedent be seiged wher-, teer is known to the laws of nations, and is governed by the laws of war. It has no right to commit the atrocities which have characterized the whole course of ‘the Alabama, Florida, &c. But the chief distinetion is that a privateer sails under the flag of a recognized government, and is a quasi ship of war. That character could not be aseribed to any. of Jeff. Davis’ vessels, which have neither legitimate parentage nor any port of their own to which they can take prizes, and hence they daily violaty the laws of nations by indiscriminate burnings in mid ocean. Such crafts are enemies and scourges of mankind, and are not to be likened to any class of war vessels heretofore recognized by public law. te" A large number of newsboys and sev, eral printers were arrested in San Francisco “on Sunday, for issuing and selling a bogus extra containing news that Richmond and Savannah had been taken, Butler killed, &e. i" A new piratical enterprise has nln detected at San Francisco, wider the leaderarrests have been made, including Hays. THERE are no funds in the Nevada Preas, and Johnson, and believed, thongh a SouthZack Mowrdomeny has started a paper ealled the Occidental, in. San “Francisco, to perform the hopeless task of’ writing up Copperheadism, and writing doion free schog)s. His need of tha latter, or of common honesty, ‘is shown by the following extract from. his sheet of Dec. 24: “The President telly us that the total expenditures of the navy departinent, of every descriptiin, including . the cost of the immense squadrons that. have been called into existence from the 4th of March, 1261, to the first 6f . Nov ¢mber,.1264, are ($2,366,726,235) two thousand three hundred and sixty-six milligns seven hundred and tw enty‘six thousand two. hundred and thirtyabve dollars. . Nows*there are supposed to be in the whole world ebeut one thousand millions of people, sa:that if. we weré fo divide the cost of this navy dmongst the inhabitants of . the whole earth, including white, black, arid red ;: men, women and children, the tax would be upwéfds of $2.25 to eaéh individual,” He goes onto show that thé cost of the navy, based -on hia figures, would build E9" A. testinionial of the Century Chib of New York was! recently given to William Cullen Bryafit, as the first of American poets, a well-desetved misehance Mi.
