“Tnis dispatch la in reply ta my letter
of £3d of August, in wliloh I forwarded
a copy of tbe report famished by Captain
Sullivan of Her Majesty's ship hirias,
oa tbe cccarrenoe la qaettioo
Mr. Everts now remarks that the
United States Government have not been
pat in possession of the depositions that
form the basis of that report, and are on
able, therefore, to Bsy whether upon their
consideration the view which the Gov
ernment of the United States takes of
these transactions, npan the sworn state
ments of their own citizens, would be at
all modified. Her Majesty's Government
have not had the opportunity of consid
ering the statement m question, bnttbe
deposition.: which accompanied8nl!ivanje
report, and which I now have tbe honor
to forward, appeared to them, in the ab
sence of other testimony, to be conclu
sive as regards tho facia of the case.
Apart, however, from tbo facta in respect
to which there appears to be a material
divergence between tho evidence collect
ed by the Vuiti'd Slates Government and
that collected by the colonial authorities,
Mr. Evarte takes exception to my letter
of tho 23 J, on the ground of my state
ment that the United States fishermen
concerned have been gnitty of
breaches of the law. From this he
infers an opinion on my part that
it is competent for a British authority to
pass laws in suspension of tbe treaty
binding American fishermen within the
three mile limit. In pointing out that
tbe American fishermen had broken the
law within tbs' territorial limits of Her
M» jesty dominion?, I had no intention of
lnlcrrcatialiy laying down any principles
of international law, and no advantage
would, I think, be gained by doing
so, to a greater extent than the
facts in question absolutely require.
fondly believe, however, that Mr. Ev-
arts would in disonaeion adhere to the
broad doctrine which some portion of his
langnsge wonld appear to oonvey, that no
British authority has any right to pass
any kind of law binding Amerloan?, who
are fishing in British waters, for if that
oontentioabe just tho same disability ap
plies a fortiori io any other power, aod
tbo waters most be delivered over to an'
aroby. On the other hand, her Msjes-
ty"* Government will readily admit,

British sovereignty sa regards theso mat
ters is limited in its scope by the the en-
gSijementa of the frosty of \Vorhingl.n,
which cannt be modified or affected by
any municipal legislation. I cannot an
ticipate that with regard tr, these princi
ples any difference will be fonnd to exist
between tbo vlewe of the two govern
ments. If, however, it be admitted that
the Newfoundland legislators have tho
;ht of binding Americans who fish
hin their waters by any laws which do
not contravene existing treaties, it
must further bo conceded that the dnty
of dototfuining the existence of any such
contravention must be undertaken by tne
governments, and cannot be remitted to
the discretion of each individual fisher
men. For each a discretion, if exercised
on one side, can hardly be refused on the
other. If any American fisherman may
violently break a law which ho believes
to be contrary to tbe treaty, a Newfound
land fisherman may violently maintain
it, if he believes it to be in accurdanoo
with the treaty. As the points ia issue
are frequently subtle, and reqnire consid
erable legal knowledge, nothing bnt con
fusion and disorder conld result from
from each a mode of deciding interpre
tation of treaty. Her Majesty’s govern
ment prefer tbe view that the law enacted
by the Legislature of the country, what
ever it may be, ought to be obeyed by
natives and foreigners alike, who are so
journing within the territorial limits of
its jurisdiction, bnt that if a law had
been inadvertently passed which is in any
degree or respect at variance with the
rights conferred on a foreign power by
treaty, the correction of the mistake, aa
committed, at tbe earliest period after its
existence shall hare been ascertained and
recognized, is a matter of international
obligation.
It ia cot explicitly stated in Mr. Evart’a
dispatch that he coasiders any recent acts
of the colonial legislature to be incon
sistent with the lights acquired by the
United Slates under the treaty of Wash-
mgton; but if that is the case, HerMajes
ty’s Government will, in a friendly spirit
oonsider any representations he may
think it right to make upon the subject,
with the hope of coming to a satisfactory
understanding.’

WasHiiroTOX, November 14.—The first
of a series of cases,involving the right of
the Mormons to contract polygamic mar
riage, came up for argument to-day in
the United State# Supreme Court, in the
ahree of an appeal from the SupremeCourt
of Utah. The oaie ia of general interest,
because it present* to this court for the
first time the question of the constitu
tional right of Congress to prohibit poly
gamy, when it asenmes the goiae of re
ligions dnty, and is held as an article of
faith. Counsel tor the prisoner contend
that Congress is restrained from such
pronibition by the first amendment lo
the Constitution of the United States,
which provides for religions freedom.
Counsel for the United States argue that
this rigid interpretation of the constitn -
tion would prevent Congress from pun
ishing any crime in th* territories, which
might justify iueif by an appeal to re
ligions conviction, and so lead to reme-
drlen disorder. Th* decision is awaited
with interest.

very small section of that party. It ab
stains from stating the aims of the con
servatives, and argnes the necessity for
protecting institutions which are in no
danger, bnt carefully avoids specifying
the constitntion among these. Bo purely
negative a document, breathing a de
