The following in his peroration : “Ja every form in which the claim of property right can be put it ie untenable. It is cpposed to the great princip'e which lies at the very root of the whole controversy —the principle of the freedom of the seas,—the principle that upon the sea ships of all nations are equal, whether the ship of a great or an insignificant power; the principle that upon the high seas ships are part of the territory of the nation; the principle that upon the high seas subjects of every mation can take at their will, according to their ability, of the products of the sea It is not a light matter that this is the first time in the history of the world that any nation or individual has ever claimed the right ot property in any free swimming animal in the ocesn; that this is the first time in which exception has been sought to be made to the right of ell mankind to take from the ocean the fish and animala con tained therein. The advancement of this proposition is grave enough; still giaver are the sanctions invoked in the name of international law tor the vindication and defence of those extravagant and unfounded pretensions. What are those sanctions? They are the affirmation of the right on the part of the United Stated for ail time to search, seize and condemn the veasels of a friendly power engaged in, or ab ut 'o be engaged in, pelagic s:a'ing, to take from them the seals they have ac- quired, and drive these to ports from which they sailed. In other words it is this, an assertion of those acts on the high seas, only permitted by international law, to belligerents, or exercised against pirates, with whom no nation is at peace. I have endeavored to argue this question with as much closeness of reasoning as I could command. I have not indulged in vague speculation, nor embarked upon meta- physical discussion. I have felt it my duty to try to assist the tribunal in ascertaining what law is, because I conceive it to be ths function of the tribunal not to make but to declare the law; not to consider what the law ought to be, but to say what the law is; not to formulate new rights, but to atlicm what they believe to be existing rights in this domain of law. The armory of the argument is_ full. Here indeed are the weapons of Achi'les, bnt where are the strength and skill tu use them with full force and effect ? I have dea't with the law as I believe it te be. I am content to think that that lew as it has come down to us, fashioned by- the wisdom of ages, modified by experience in its evu- lution by human society, is a ticting and noble instrument to serve the just pur- poses of mankind in the adjudicativn of their rights. Mr. Carter in his impressive opening well said that submission to arbi- tration was a great fact. Mr. President, it ig a fact of weighty moral significance. Here are two great powers befere you, one a representative of the civilization of the old world—great in its extent of dominion; greater still in its long enduring traditions of well ordered liberty and the stability of its institutions, The other a young but stalwart member of the family of nations; great also in the extent of territory, and almost boundless resources; great, too, in the genius and enterprise of its possessing ecormous potentialities for good on the future of the human race. These nations are in difference. Britain conceives that s!e is wronged by these seizures; that her sovereignity has been invaded; her rights upon the high seas set at naught. Happily the bread extremity was avoided. These nations have not sought to turn their plough shares into swords to settle their differences. They are here before you, friendly litigants, peaceful suitors, asking by pacific means the adjustment and determination of their rights in time of peace. This is indeed a fact of great moral significance. ‘* Peace hath her victories not less renowed than war.” This arbitration is a victory for peace. Will youraward be « victory for peace. You alone can answer. It will be a victory for peace if it conforms to principles of the law, which have been consecrated by long usage; stamped with the approval of generations. That law which has grown up in response to that cry of humanity, heard through all time; a cry some- times inarticulate, sometimes drowned by discordant voices of passion, pride and ambi- tion, but still a cry that has gone up through all the ages, ‘‘for peace on earth and good will among men.” The President said: Sir (Charles, you have reaped so much applause in the courte of your profession as a lawyer, and farefamed speake er, that what I might add would be but of emall purport. I will merely say that the vigor and incisiveness of your argument ; has been fully appreciated. We feel that England has done honor to this tribunal when she chose as her counsel in this honorable case one of her ablest and most powerful legal debat- "Webster followed, supporting Rassell's ar- gument against the restricted meaning placed upon the terms *‘northwest coast” and ‘*Pacifie ocean,” quoting American authorities against each other most effectively.
