rnmrnrnammmmmmmmmmm? ( Concluded from second page.) Under these circumstances, the present Administration was called on, within the first week of its official existence, to decide what course was due to the national honor in this new attitude of things.? They could not but admit that, by the principles of public law, as recognized and sanctioned by the usages of all civilized nations, persons engaged in military or naval enterprises, under the orders of their lawful superiors, could not he held individually responsible for wh it was done in the execution of those enterprises.? k a (l'nwA * uro u an rh*? hands of i<tVUCIIU| IIUn?1CI| TT UJ til .uv ?. > the judicial tribunals of the country, and by regular judicial process only could he be discharged. The Executive authority had no right to interpose its arm for his release. What, thee, was the answer of the Administration to the communication of the British Government? It was such as ^lr. R. believed the Senate would feel to be in accordance with the honest national pride of every American bosom. It was, in substance, this for he had not the answer of the Secretary of State then liefore him: You (the .British Government) now avow the destruction of the Caroline as a public act of military and/naval force, done ur?ter your authority. Henceforward McLeod and others, who acted under your orders, rnu-d stand excused in the eye of the law. Let the courts, in the exercise of the jurisdiction which of right belongs to them, allow his pica of immunity and discharge ; but we hold you responsib'e it his place, through all those modes of international redress which the code of na tions has provided for the prosecution o. vindication of national rights. " The ' ? rj American P ople," (anJ here, said Mr. R I use, in part, the very words of the an *wer returned by the Secretary of State,) ** not distrustful of their ability to redres? public wrongs by public means." is incapable of the poor revenge of pursuing a?, individual for a national offence, in which he was but the instrument of his Govern mont.' Mr. Rives appealed to the Senate?to *he sentiment of American pride?to that Roman spirit, which he believed yet survived in the bosoms of his countrymen, to na vwhether such a reply was not worthy ot tiie country and the Government? -Parcere subject is et debellare superbos" was the dictate of a lofty and magnanimous spir. it, whether in individuals or in States? u iutorinnc hniff recorded the conduct of Roman Senate on t e occasion of their ambassador being killed by the subjects of Demetrius one of the most powerful prince# of antiquity. Demetrius delivered the perpetrators of the act to the Romans; but the Senate suspecting that he had connived at or encouraged the crimo immediately sent back the individual offence , notifying Demetrius that they would hold the sovereign, and not the subject, responsible. Is it in following the example of the proud Republic that the honorable Senator from Pensvlvania finds n ground for imputing to the Adrnin stration, in the case of McLeod, a want of proper national tone and spirit? But the Senator tells us, also, that he dissents entirely from the views of the administration in regard to the principle of international law involved in the correspondence b tween Mr. Fox and the Secretary of State. What is the princi. - i . *i i pal tnus denied/ 1 cue u, as me Honorable Senator did, from the letter of instruction of the Attorney Genaral. It is there laid down in the follewing words: There is, therefore, now on authentic declaration that the attack on the Caroline was an aet of pnhlic force, done by military men, under the orders their superior officers, and is recognized as such hy the Queen's Government." That an individual forming part of a public force, and acting under the authority of his Gov. eminent, is not to ?>e held answerable as a private tresspasser or malefactor, is a . principle of public law sanctioned by (he usages of all civilized nations, and which the Government of the United States has I* - M .no inclination to dispute. The Senator from Pennsylvania contends that this doctrine is applicable only to a state of open,formal, and doc la red war. In this I beg leave to differ from him.? It is applicable to every case of a milita?y aggression committed by military men, acting in obedience to their superior authorities, whether it be in a state of general and formal war or not. What is the reason of the thing? Let us not stick in the letter, hut look to the considerations on which the rule is founded. Why are soldiers and military men not held individually responsible for acts of vio ience and trespass committed in military o|KTations, on the persons and property of citizens of another nation? Because in these acts tliev are the mce instru. men Ik of a higher Power, bound impera. lively by their allegiance to yield their services at the call of the constituted nil. j thorities of their country, and to obey implicitly the orders of their com mane.ing officers. It is not for the soldier or! the volunteer (for they both stand on the same ground) to inquire into the justice * or legality of the orders he receives.? His duty is obedience, while the responsibility for his orders is wifh his sovereign, or bis superior officers who issue them. And here I beg leave to refer the honor, able Senator to his favorite authority, (Vatte!,) from which he read an extract which I shall presently ahow completely sustains, when proper y understood, the ru^ailinn he n<spr! it tn ansnii. The nass ?" ? ? ' - f - a^e I am about to read refers to the ease *fa fraulv/i and, unjust war, of so ilagr^/it ? t . .' ' a character as to expose the sovereign who wages it to the unanimous reprobation of the whole family of nations. The author there says: "But, as to the reparation of any damage, are the military, the general officers and soldiers, obliged in conscience to repair the injuries which they have done, not of their own will, but as instruments in the hands of their sovereign?" "Itis the duty of subjects to suppose" the orders of the sovereign "just and wise, &c ? When, therefore, they have lent their assistance in a war which is afterwards found to he unjust, the sovereign alone is guilty. He alone is bound to repair the injuries. The subjects, and in particular the military, are innocent; they have act. ed only from a necessary obedience."? "Government would be impracticable, if every one of its instruments were to weigh its commands," &c.?Vattel, b. iii. c. 11, sec. 173. In this passage both the rule and the reason of it respecting the immunity from individual responsibility of persons employed in military operations, are laid down in the most comprehensive terms. They are regarded as mere instruments in the hands of the sovereign or superior j authorities; as much so in effect, as the i 1 I bayonets they play or the cannon they discharge. The rule, too, is expressed in ?erms so large and comprehensive as to ipply to every kind of war, in regard to "is character for justice; and to every * -i" in fn.mnlltlf A li_ 'l6^rC6 Ul Wfir, 111 I';s|icli iw luiuiitiiyi v?>.~ ration, and extent. There are many 'brms and varieties of the state of war.? n general, a declaration of war is reqnirJ, to constitute a solemn or formal war. Jut ''defensive war requires no declamion, not even, cn urgent occasions, an xpress order from the sovereign." [Vat. el, b. iii, c. 4, sec. 68.] So as to repris. Is. and other specific and partial acts of hostility. They are not accompanied vith a declaration of war, and yet they are j mblic wars, though of the imperfect sort. J ftatherforth, an able writer on the law of i nature and of nations, has well described fhese various degrees and denominations of war. He says: 4,If one nation seizes the goods of another nation bv force, upon account of some damage. &c. such contentions by force are reprisals. There may be likewise other acts of hostility between two nations which do not properly come under the name of reprisals, such as the beseiging each other's towns, or the sinking of each other's fleets, whilst the nations in other respects are at peace with one another. These are public wars, because nations nre the contending parties. But as they are confined to some particular objects, they are of the imperfect sort," dec.?B. ii, c. 9, s. 10. Of these informal and imperfect wars, neither accompanied with a declaration of war, nor extending into general and continned hostilities, the examples in modern times are very numerous. Not to speak of the memorable attack on Copenhagen, we have had, in our own day, repeated instances of these local, partial, and isola. ted hostilities, amounting, nevertheless, during their continuance, to a state of war, and carrying with them all the legal consequence of that state. One instance was too fresh in his recollection. Mr. K. said, having occured during the peri >d of his residence in France, and furnished too apt an illustration of the principles under discussion, not to justify a passing notice. While the tyrant Don Migeul was on the throne of Portugal, he practised the grossest atrocities, not only on his own subjects but on foreigners resident in his kingdom. The subjects of France came in for a large share of these injuries and indignities. Failing to obtain suitable reparation for them bv negotiation, France resorted first to reprisals on the Portuguese flag; hut these, too, failing of their desired effect, she despatched a squadron under Admiral Rotissin, which forced the entra nee of the Tagus, and, passing through the fire of the fortresses which line its banks, anchored within gun shot of the Royal Palace. The required concessions were speedily yielded to this vigorous display of force, and Admiral Roussin relumed in a few days to Brest, with the whole Portuguese fleet in his train, as the trophy of his sudden and sue. eessful coup-de-main. Here was no formal or declared war. It was an isola. ted act offeree. And yet will any one contend that if a sailor of Admiral Rous, sin had been afterwards found in Portugal, he could have been made personally answerable for the loss of life or destruc. lion of property which may have attended the operation in which he bore a part? But Mr. R. said he would hasten to pre. sent the Senate a most respectable authority on the laws of nations, which is di reef and explicit to the point in question. Before doing so. he would merely premise that the legal effects attributed bv publi its to a state of war related, first, to the impunity of individuals for any injury lo person or property they might commit in the execution of military operations, and, secondly, to the right of property acquired in goods taken by one belligerent from another. The passages he was about to read from Ruthcrforth would show that both of these consequences applied as we 1 to imperfect and informal wars, to reprisals, and to isolated acts of hostility, as to wars of the more formal and solemn kind. First, he says: 1 " The external lawfulness of what is done in a war, in respect of the memhers of a civil society extends to public wars of the imperfect sort, to a/;ts of re. < prisals. or to other acts of hostility," dec. 1 Rutherforth, b. ii, c. &, s. 15. J i And again he says: 1 "Neither the reason of the thing nor I the common practice of nations will give 1 them any other impunity, or allow thorn 1 any otherwise obtain property in what is taken where war has been declared, than in the less solemn kinds of war, which are made without a previous declaration." dec. "In the less solemn kinds of war, what the members do. who act under the particular direction and authority of their nation, is by the law of nations no personal crime in tliem; they cannot, therefore, be punished consistently with this law for any act in which it considers them only as the instruments, and the nation as the agent."?Idem, b. ii, c. 9, s. 18. Mr. R. said ho would put one more case, and only one more, in order to bring v more immediately home to the Senate the principle we have been discussing. I He referred to the attack upon the frigate Chesepeake. It occtired in a time of profound peace, on the bosom of one of our great estanries, and witjiin the jurisdiction of his own native Commonwealth. Would gentlemen have held the sailors and marinesof the Leopard personally amenable to our laws, and avenged the national in suit upon them? I presume not. [Mr. Benton, speaking across: I would have hanged every one of them.] The Senator from Missouri, we all know, said Mr. R loves a summary mode of proceeding; but would such an act have been recognised by civilized nations, and approved by the geieral sense of mankind? For the sake af rescuing the conflicts of war fr<m the cruelties and bitterness of personal revenge, the principle of individual immunity has been established by the code of nations; and I rather think that the Senator himself, upon reflection would have pursued a nobler course.. He would have obeyed the susrges'ions of a loftier chivalry, and directed his demands for redress to the oflTending sovereign, and not have wreaked hisvpugeance upon an involuntary instrument and an unresisting victim. Mr. R. said he would now proceed to show that the passage read by ttie Senator from Pennsylvania from Vattel and on which he so confidently relied to assail ,Td overthrow the position assumed by the Administration in relationto the principle of public law involved in the case of McLeod, was. in truth an authority directly and expressly sustaining that position. Let us again read the passage which the gentleman cited from that auther, b. ir, c. , s. 74 and 75. It consists of two sections. The first is in the following words: "But if a nation or its chief approves and ratifies the act of the individual, it then becomes a public concern; and the injured party is to consider the nation .not onflinr nfthp innirv. nf which (Id iuv ? Mn uuiiavt VI Iiaw ^ W. " the citizen was, perhaps, only the instrument." Now this describes identically the case of McLeod, in reference to the burning and destruction of the Caroline. That act has been approved and rati led by the British Government, and, consequently in the words of Vattel, it "then becomes a public question" between nation and na. tion, in which the Government of the individual is the real and only responsible party. But the honorable Senator passed lightly over this section, and dwelt with particular emphasis on the 7f?th section, which immediately follows, anri ia in these words: "If the offended State has in her pow. er the individual who has done the injury, she may, without scruple, bring him to justice and punish him. If he has escaped and returned to his own country, she ought to apply to his Sovereign to have justice done in the case." The Senator from Pennsylvania read this section as if it applied tc the same ease supposed in the preceding section, to wit, where the act has been approved and ratified by the Sovereign. But it is perfectly evident from the last sentence of the section that it does not; for it would be idle and absurd to apply to a Sovereign to have justice done upon his subject, when he had already ratified and approved the act of that subject. This section, therefore, must necessarily contemplate the case where the act of a foreign subject has not been approved and ratified by his Sovereign, and affirms the principle that, in such case, the offended State may, by virtue of her jurisdiction over all persons within h$r territory, punish the offending individual, though a foreigner, if she have him in her power. It does not contradict in any degree, the principle laid down in the preceding section, that where the act has been approved and ratified bv the Sovereign, he is responsible for the injury, and the individual is to be regarded only as the instrument. It is an universal rule of interpretation that, where there is an appnren': conflict between parts of the same authority or law, such construction shall he made, if possible, as will give effect to both. The ob- < vious explanation given above of these two 1 sections of Vattel satisfies this rule, as well as the plain import of the text. The Senator from Pennsylvania put a case which he seem* d to suppose would fa'rly test tho principle of international law involved in this discussion. He asked if Col. McNab should, under Unorders of the Colonial authorities in Canada, seize and rob the mail of the United States, could he set up his orders as a bar to a prosecution for such an offence in the American courts? Tho case put has not the remotest analogv to the case of McLeod. Such a proceeding would be a common felony, incapable of being sh'-Hcred under any plea of military obe. d ?e. The duty of a military man can never lay him under the obligation of becoming a highway robber. The capture and destruction of the Caroline, on the j other hand, however justifiable upon any I sound application of the principles of in- ternational law, is shown by all the cor- ' respondence and documents relating to it tP have been a military and naval operftflon, governed by all the rules and discipline of military nervice and subordination. j ihbrkma. i A Cotton umbrella wi:h a hooked handle was mis aid somewhere in town a we> k or two since.
