It is also understood that General Meade has made a requisition upon the Secre? tary of War for the body of Jenkins; but, up to a late hour to-night, the arrest had not been made. .

A young man was walking up Fat- , rio.- -street, about ten o'clock at night, when on reaching the Victoria Hotel another man, who 1 ?tates that he was only a passenger in the 1 ?treat, remarked to him that his coat was on 1 fire. The person addressed immediately threw i off his coat, depositinK it in Cook-stroefc,which runs at the comer of the hotel, and quickly disappeared. On searching the bu.-ning coat the man who gave tho alarm found a bottle containing some liquid, which on the police coming up, he flung down in the street, where it ignited. He aliege'l as his reasoD for doing so that ho feared it would explode. A crowd collected, amone whom, it ii reported, men poked up tho blazing mass, took papers ont of the pocket, and on the police going away with the aocond man in custody, tore them into fragments. If the account be correct, it would appear that the polios were not?t once alive to tho importance of seizing the coat, and that documents which might have prov sd to be of some consequence escaped them. The burn? ing liquid was believed to be phosphorus. CHARLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUAR ? 4, 1868. Tue Alabama Claims. Lord HOBART has written a lefter to the London Times in which he warns his coun? trymen that they are drifting towards a war with the United States, and urges them to open their eyes to the consequence of a suspension of all negotiations with regard to the Alabama claims. It is not often that an English nobleman writes as frunkly and freely upon a vexed question as Lord HO? BART has done in this instance and his opinions are likely to receive cain, conside? ration on both sides of the Atlantic. According to Lord HOBART, the letter of Mr. SEWABD to Mr. ADAMS breaking off ne? gotiations respecting the Alabama difficulty is probably of more consequence, as far as the future of England is conceded, than any similar document published in vecent times. The failure of these negotiations means unfriendly relations between Eng? land and the United States. Unfriendly relations mean the risk of war. A war be? tween the United States and England would be "a calamity as great as any wi.ion could afflict the world." Lord HOBART says that this oountry has loyally done ita duty in regard to Fenianism, but it may now be obliged "to oonform its principes and policy to those which it considere to have been the principles and polioy of I his ooun? try during the American civil wa.:. Noth? ing else is wanting to make Funianism, which is now only troublesome a ad vexa? tious, serious and formidable." ..The matter, then, stands thus : The United States Government has pressed upon the British Government a formidable list of claims on account of losses inflicted upon Amerioan citizens by the depredations of the Alabama and other vessels of her class, and has at the same time stated very clearly the grounds on which it urges the settlement of those olaims. Thoso grounds are Recapitulated by Mr. SEWARD in his dispatch of the 27th of August, 186(1, and are shortly as follows : That by the Queen's proclamation of 1861 heiliger eztt rights were wrongfully conceded to certain slaveholding States then in insur? rection againet their lawful government; that, in consequence of such concession, thoie States obtained, among other advan- . tages, power lo assume a national flag, and to seize and destroy goods and shipping of the United States; that thereupon, from the very nation whioh had mainly occasioned thia inj-otll/O, Ibv,. yr????J?it nWlIl BnCly ^ icame the recognised property of the insurgents, and inflicted enormous injury upon Amerioan trace and navigation; that, to prevent such vcsrels from leaving her shores, n ) serious, or, at least, no sutlioient effort, waE made bj the government of this oountry; that, more? over, such vessels were repeatedly har- 1 bored and protected in various port j of Great 1 Brit ain and her colonies, and that Great Bri- 1 tain owes to tho United States indemnity for 1 the losses which have thus been sustained. 1 The British Government while refusing to 1 admit the validity of this reasoning, offers 1 to refer the question to arbitration; but 1 on one oondition-that in the casu submit- ! ted to the arbiter no acoount shall be taken of the recognition of the insurgent States as belligerenta.by the royal proclamation of 1861. On this condition it insists, because it considers that the question as to the legality 1 or propriety of that reoognition is of a kind 1 upon which "every State must ba held to 1 be the sole judge of its duty." Tie-United ' States, on the other hand, while assenting ' to arbitration, desire that the 'whole con? troversy' may be referred to arbitration at it stands; not for decision upon its merits, ' but in order that their demand fo.- compen? sation may be laid before the arbiter, ac? companied by the arguments on vhich it is founded." This is a ?onoise statement of the whole matter in dispute, and Lord HOB/.RT says : j "It comes then, to this,-that the British 1 Government has refused, not only to yield to the demand of the United Stales, but to submit the case, exoept in a very partial ; and limited form, to arbitration. Is the 1 British nation prepared to aocept the re? sponsibility ? To decline to comply with tho j requisition of a foreign power because you 1 consider it unreasonable is one thing; to ; refuse to adopt the only existing method, exoept war, of settling the dispute, is quite ] another. And it may well be askec. whether, 1 if a question such as that of the recogni? tion of the South as belligerent, inflicting, ] as it did, serious loss and injury upon a ' friendly State, be not a proper nubject for : arbitration, any great question jf foreign polioy can ever hererfter be deoided by any j other than those time-honored but some- 1 what illogical authorities, bullets and oold steel." At the time of signing the Declaration of | Paris in 1856, the British Minister proposed that a paragraph should bo inserted in the protocols expressing a hope that in future ? all nations will, before declaring war, refer ! the question at issue to tho judgment of a neutral State. This was agreed lo by the j four great Powers, yet the Britis'i Govern- J ment, on the first opportunity for applying it, protests against its application. "There is, however," says Lori HOBART, 1 "no need to rely upon this urgument, for in 1 the present case it happens that r.o one pro? poses that any decision shall be pronounced j ipon the right of Great Britain to recog- j lize the belligerency of the South. The ; United States do not require-on the con? trary, they expressly exclude from their requirements-any such arbitrament. Upon the particular question to be submitted to the arbiter which is the question whether compensation is due to the United States for the losses Inflicted by the Ala? bama and her coadjutors, both nations are agreed. That such an arbitration may be resorted to without prejudice to national dignity both are also agreed. But one of them demands that certain facts and infer? ences which the other considers material to the issue shall be excluded from the case laid before the arbiter, simply because his decision might otherwise be influenced by the solution, in the hidden recesses of his own mind, of a question upon which 'every State must bethe solo judge of its duty.' The decision given by the arbiter will amount neither directly nor indirectly, neither ex? pressly nor by implication, to any opinion upon that question, rle may consider it; he may arrive at a conclusion upon it, and his decision may be influenced by that conclu? sion. But what that conclusion is, whether he has been abI* to form one, or whether he believes tbtu :he question has any such bearing upon the particular issue referred to him as that he need consider it at all, no one will ever know. Acts and words sup? posed to derogate from national honor have throughout all time been guarded against or avenged at a terrible cost to the world; thia is probably the first time that it has been thought necessary to defend national honor at the risk of the most calamitous consequences against the secret thoughts of j the heart'. I trust that it may not be even nov too lato to hope' for a renewal of the negotiations. Will the English people, tac? itly acknowledging the morbid susceptibil? ities imputed to it by its rulers, or actuated by the childish fear of hoing thought afraid, allow itself to be committed to an irrecon? cilable quarrel with a nation of whose friendship it stands just now peculiarly in need, and to be at peace with them ls of j incalculable importance to itself and to the worldjor ?ill it insist on the settlement, by way of arbitration, without captious and sensitive reservations, of a question which ought not to be kept open for a single day, and whioh an impartial tribunal can alone satisfactorily deeide ?" New Bootu. COUNT MIRABEAU. An Historical Novel, by Theodore Mundt. Translated from the Ger? man, by Therese J. Radford. New York : D. Appleton it Co. 1868. Charleston : John Bowell. MIRABEAU cannot be called light and sparkling. On the contrary it is somewhat dull and prosy; but the reader may skip both platitude and moral reflection without losing the interest of the main story. The translation is sufficiently well done; and the book is recommended to those who de? sire to obtain a better idea of MIRABEAU'S extraordinary career than is gained from common and ponderous history.
