Thus in a perfectly peaceful and strictly just manner the much-vexed questions at issue have been settled without recourse to the abitrament of arms. The United States Government is to be congratulated not only because it has gained its point, but chiefly because of the dignified and states manlike manner in which she handled the subject throughou.
