England and the United States. —lt is stated
that Mr. Buchanan’s letters by the Arabia announce
that the feeling in political circles in England is
much modified towards the United States on tie
present differences. The rea lion is even stronger
than is indicated by the press, and is favorable L
a reasonable adjustment. No difficulty is now an
ticipated on that score, although there had been no
very recent conferences, owing to Lord Claren

ances. After alluding to the unjust manner in
which Lieut. Maury had been treated bv tiie Board
he said il was not because of inefficiency that of
ficers had been stricken down, but it was a system
of espionage—as was said by a victim of the

grasping the sceptre, wielded it with despotic
sway.

The Case of the Brig General Armstrong.
Judge Gilchrist, the presiding justice of the
Court of Claims, says the Washington Union, of
the 17th inst., delivered the opinion of the court in
: this important and interesting ease. The opinion
! i s said to be by the learned counsel who heard it
! read, one of the most marked ability and profound
legal research. It settles the long-discussed opin
ions of the rights and duties of neutral nations—
reviews the rights of our citizens, and the obliga
tions of our government towards, them—discusses
the question of arbitration by the government of
questions involving rights of its citizens, and the
responsibility of this government towards its citi
zens in cases coming within this class of claims.
A more interesting case at this time to the people
of France, Portugal, England, and our citizens
generally, could not be given to the public:
The opinion of the court in the case of the pri
vate armed brig General Armstrong vs. the United
States, was delivered bv Chief Justice Gilchrist,
Judge Blackford dissenting.
liie points involved in the case were substantial
ly as follows :
Ist. That the evidence proved that in the engage
ment between the boats of the British squadron
and the American brig, at the battle of Fayal, in
1»I4, the British were the aggressors.
2d. That Portugal being neutral in the war be
tween the United .States and Great Britain, as she
claimed the rights, so she was bound by the obli
gations, of a neutral.
3d. That where a vessel belonging to a belliger
ent is destroyed by another belligerent in a neutral
port, the neutral is bound to protect her neutrality
by all means at her disposal.
4tli. That the Portuguese Governor used no
means whatsoever to protect the neutrality of her
port, except by expostulation with the British com
mander, although, to a considerable extent, he had
means at his disposal.
oth. That even if a neutral be unable, at any
particular point, to resist successfully the force of
one of the belligerents, she is, nevertheless, bound
to redress the injury sustained by the other bellig
erent, by making compensation for the injuries sus
tained.
tith. That by the law of nations all independent
powers stand upon an equality, as regards their
rights and duties, whether they be relatively weak
or relatively powerful.
7th. That in the circumstances of this case there
was no call upon the United States to submit this
claim to arbitration.
bth. That the United States have the right to
submit to arbitration the claim of one of their cit
izens upon a foreign government, either witli or
without liia assent; but they are bound to see that
in the submission li is rights are carefully protected,
md that he has a full aud fair opportunity of being
heard.
9th. That it is a principle of universal applica
tion that no one shall be condemned unheard, and
that every citizen, however humble, lias a right to
>e heard in defence of his rights ; and that if he is
not permitted a hearing accordingly before the tri
■ unal that is to pass judgments upon his rights,
be judgment of such tribunal cannot be held to
• c valid.
loth. Tiiat when the United States submits the
laiin of a citizen to arbitration, if lie is not per
j .lifted a bearing, or to be represented before the
| o biter and heard in defence of his rights, and the
j ward is adverse to him, the L’nited States becomes
! esponsible to the claimant for the damages he
ias sustained.
11. That whether the question in the present
ase was a question of law, or a mixed question of
tw and faet, the claimants had a right to be heard
»efore the arbitrator.
12. That even if it were doubtful which party
vas the aggressor, and even if it were a doubtful
juestion whether he had a claim on Portugal, he
utd equally a right to be heard.
18th. That, the United States having made a
reaty, which by their construction precluded the
iaimants from being heard, and having refused
heir sanction and authority to him to appear and
resent his case before the arbiter, and his award
laving been against him, under these circum
stances the United States are bound in damages.
The taking of testimony was ordered.
13TWe extract the following from the Journal
f Commerce, in it* summary of news brought by
:he steamer George Law :
From the Panama Star, March 5.
The Central American Filibusters. - Not
withstanding the strong sentiments expressed by
our United States exchanges in favor of the Walk
er Government in Nicaragua, we have never vet
met with one solitary reason to change our first
opinion, which we have frequently expressed, that
not only will Walker’s expedition prove u failure,
but that Walker himself v. ill either he shot or driv
en from the country. We are no friend of a ne
gro government, such as that of Nicaragua has to
a great extent been, but still less are we favor
able to a fillibuster scheme such as that got up by
Walker and bis party which can only result in dis
satisfaction and bloodshed.
Our views on this point are confirmed by every
arrival from Grey town. Bv the last British steamer
we are informed that the Walker Government only
exists by the most despotic rule, and that his whole
followers would desert were it not for the dread of
being shot, a fate which is sure to attend any one
who even dares to complain. No one is allowed
to leave the ranks, and the new recruits who join
his army are unfortunate persons, who are picked
up by force and actually made prisoners of, and
kept so until their services are required as soldiers.
His rule may still exist a very few months, but its
fate is inevitable. Six hundred foreign paupers,
with nothing to recommend them but their bowie
knives and revolvers, can never be successful in
gaining the good will of the people upon whom
they force themselves; and just as soon as the
slightest chance opens for the purpose, will Walker
and his followers be as mercilessly murdered, as
have been the unfortunate victims of his wreckless
ambition since he entered the country,
j The force coming down upon him from Hondu
ras, consists of over five thousand men. Walker
has one thousand two hundred foreigners, and a
considerable native force—and with the most vigi
lant discipline he is drilling aud keeping them to
gether. No one who goes to Granada, without a
special permit previously given, ever returns. He
[iresses them all into the ranks of his forces.
The pav of Walker’s troops in Nicaragua is now
reduced from one hundred to twenty-five dollars
per month. His force consists of about six hun
dred men.
In the absence of our Central American exchanges
we learn from the Panameno that Guatemala, San
Salvador, Honduras and Costa Rica, have celebra
ted a treaty, offensive and defensive, against the
Nicaragua Walker Government.
A strong force iias been raised in Honduras, with
the intention of marching against Granada.
General Cabanas, who formerly was leagued
1 with the Rivas Administration, has joined the al
lied States against Walker.
The Guatemala Government has purchased some
vessels, with the intention of keeping an armed
force in her harbors. She is increasing and drill
ing her army, and sparing no pains to place her
self in a position to sustain the Central American
treaty.
The French frigate l’Ambuscade hnd readied
Punta Arenas, with strict orders to put down any
fillibuster expedition she might fall in with on the
high seas.
The Boletin Official, of San Jose de Costa Rica,
publishes a lengthy letter addressed by Wm. Nel
son, Esq., and Captain Stout, especial agents of
the Panama Railroad company to Central America
to the Hon. D. M. J. Cavazo, Minister of the State
of Costa Rica, relative to the opening of a steam
communication between Panama and Central
America, pointing to the advantages that, would ac
crue to Costa Rica by the opening of such a line.

Take Care of Your French.— One of the most
j iudricous conversations took place not long since
: m Paris. The parties were a Yankee, who had
I studied French on the ship as he came over, and
j riio garcon of a hotel. The new-comer was lmn
* .try, and had watched anxiously the movements of
the garcon, who was putting tilings to rights in Ins
j room ; but the phrase for getting dinner wouldn’t
I come to his memory. He had seen in his Ollen
dort that ,F ai faim 1 1 am hungry i were the magic
! words to be used for that purpose. At last, he
thought he had them.
“< ’iareong, ’ said he, beckoning witli his fore
finger.
The garton approached.
“fc iareong, J’ ai une femme,” (I have a wife.l
“Eli bieti, monsieur !” answered the boy. “I
hope that madam is quite well.”
| The Yankee, mistaking this for a promise to
| serve up. waited awhile, but, seeing that the boy
I did not take any step to fulfil, concluded to try
| again.
“ Gurcong,” said he, beckoning as before, Je suis
fameaur dam famous).
The garcon answered, with a low bow : “ All
; Englishmen, monsieur, are covered with glorv,”
and went on with his work.
The second open sesame had failed. The Yan
; ke# grew desperate ; at last he was sure of being
\ right.
” Carton, Jesuis une femme” (I am a woman).
' This made the garcon open his eyes ; but, guess
ing in a moment what was wanted ; “Ah, monsieur
wants to say J’ ai faim /”
s it !” cried the relieved Yankee who
now tails the thing as a good joke on himself.

In the People’s Court, 1 ltli March, 1856.
The City of Charleston j
vs. - Rule Kisi for Mandamus.
The City of Augusta. \
On motion of Counsel, it is ordered that the city
of Augusta show cause, (if any it have), why a
Mandamus should not issue, to compel ii to con
nect all the railroads and subscribe half a million
of dollars to build the Savannah Valley railroad,
for the special benefit of the city of Charleston.
And now, at this term, comes the defendant into
Court, and by attorney, pleads to the disability of
the plaintiff, tor that Charleston is a foreign corpo
ration, having no right, to appear in this Court.
And tiie defendant further says that the interests,
the dignity and the honor of Augusta will be com
promitted by being subjected to a mandatory writ,
at the instance of sueli foreign corporation. And
the defendant, for further cause, shows that her
true interest and honor demand that she should
employ all her resources and influence In aid of
internal improvements in her own State, and in
such manner as to benefit herself, which slip is ad
vised and verily believes can be most effectually
done by aiding to build the railroad from Camak,
on the Georgia railroad, to the city of Macon. This
is an enterprise whicli will bring to the city of Au
gusta a rich and profitable trade, from the counties
of Warren, Hancock, Baldwin, Jones, Bibb, and
other counties of Smith-western Georgia, and
change the courseof trade from that region through
Augusta instead of Savannah, and give additional
business to fifty miles of the Georgia railroad.
For these reasons, the defendant prays the Court
to dismiss the Rule at the cost of the Plaintiff.
By the Court—Having heard the pleading and
the arguments of Counsel, on both sides of this
case, the Court will take time to consider, and de
liver its opinion on Saturday, the 29th of this inst,,
to which day the Court is now adjourned.

*3?" There are plenty of young Gentle
men, as well as plenty of old ones, whose beards
are turning gray, which gives the former a good
deal of uneasiness, and exposes the age of the lat
ter. To avoid these little perplexities, we advise
such of our readers to use Prof. WOOD’S HAIR
RESTORATIVE, which will, in the course of a
few weeks, change the white hair to its natural
color. It does not dye the hair, like the most of
the Ilair Restoratives, but produces a gradual
change of color front the roots of the hair to the
final end, and gives it a fine and glossy appear
ance. We have seen many persons who have used
it successfully, and pronounced it the only inven
tion which has come up to their idea of a “ cure
for gray heads.” We commenced using it about
two months since, and if we are any judge of age
and beauty, it has made us at least ten years young
er—in fact, we are beginning to look quite young,
and feel very much like getting a young wife. The
change is miraculous, and it would be as difficult
to find a gray hair now' as it would be to find an
idea in the head of the Duke of Buckingham. We
know several old maids and some young widows,
whose locks are just beginning to assume a silverv
bue, and who have been talking seriously about re
sorting to this remedy; and we advise them not
to delay any longer. It never fails.— St. Loins

The most extraordinary discovery in the World is the

H. G. FARRELL’S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT.
flip HE beautiful and fertile region skirting the
B desert of Arabia, abounds with rare plants
and odorous woods, whence are procured those aro
matic gums and balsams of which this Liniment is
composed, and by whose stimulating, unctuous and
penetrating properties it is, when applied, diffused
through the whole nervous system, allaying the
most intense pain in a few minutes. Try it, when
you will be convinced that no preparation possesses
in so high a degree, its perfect anodyne qualities.
Its action is prompt and effective. It penetrates
the flesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, re
storing use to limbs paralysed for years, and where
tlic flesh has wasted away, leaving nothing but
skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing
new flesh to grow out and fill up the shrivelled
part. It restores the synovial fluid or joint water,
and this is the reason why it has been so success
ful in diseases of the joints. In affections of the
Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great reme
dy stands before any other ever produced. For
ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe
cific. For any internal inflammation, you will find
it gives great relief. It has no equal in the world
for Rheumatism—also, cramps, swelling, numb
ness, weak joints, Spine and Chest, pains, wounds,
chilblains, burns, sore throat, bites of insects ami
reptiles, salt rheum, warts, corns, mange, and in
deed nearly all diseases which require an internal
application, and many others, are greatly benefitted
by it. It is used externally with great success in
goitre, or swelled neck, Scrofula or King’s Evil,
Liver Complaint, nervous diseases, Ac. For Horses
or Cattle, it is as effectual as in diseases of man.
Will cure any case of Sweeney in existence; also,
Spavin, Splint, Ringbone, Big-head, Fistula, Farcy,
Poll Evil, Windgalls, Strains, Bruises, Ac.
look out for Counterfeits !
The public are cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called !
W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan
gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having I
the name of Farrell, many will buy it m good i
faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex
ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error j
when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil
effects.
The genuine article is manufactured only bv 11. ;
