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.?

> 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_

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.
