Secretary Boutwell ta becoming seriously alarmed at the strong indications of efforts for bis Impeach ment, and, in view of the proposed report of the Ways and MeanB ComiLluee giving a fall account ot bis Syndicate operations, Is preparing to answer the demands of ttie committee lu reference to tho matter. It is rr&nlcly admitted by higb officials at the Trea sury Department tiiat, In order to put tho loan upon tho market at home or abroad, the Secretary did step outside 01 the law and violate the terms of tno acta of Congress, approved July 14. 1870, and Janu ary 23,1871, which expressly forbid auy increase of our bonded debt or the payment of more than one naif of one per cent commission to agents or the sale ol bonds ror less than their par value in coin, In the following words:?

And a suui not exceeding ououali of one per cent of t;ie bouds nereln authorized is hereby appropriated to pay trie expense of preparing, issu ing, advertising ana disposing ol lUo satne. MR. DOl'T WELL'S VIOLATIONS OF LAW. It is absolutely nee.ssary here to recapitulate the most flagrant of Mr. Uoutweli's violations of law. though the Uebald readers must be familiar with the larger portion ol them, but not with the essen tial particulars, wmch will oe fsuud lurther oa. Two huudred million dollars of the new bonds, a Uttie over one-eighth ol the amount authorized by Congress, have bccu put upon the market and dis posed ol; but at what cost The answer is given In Mr. bouiwell'a own orgau In the following words:? Mr. Itouiwed'n plan of funding the national debt has uud a pretty inlr trial. The sum and substance of the Secretnry's success is the funding of $209,00 looo at five per coat, on the payment ot a nouns ol oue aud a half per cent to the "."syndi cate" of loreuu bankers who have agreed to take the toau. Add to the bouus (k V)00, uO) $i.oou,o>o more lor the aggregate cost of printing the new bouds, advertising, explain.ng aud comnicuiliag the loan, and the entire cost ot tuuaing the $200, '0. joe at 3ve per ceut is $1,000, It must be borne lu mind Uat this $4,000,009 has been paid oat by Mr. ltoutweii, nut for negotiating $2jo,co'j,ocio or bonds sold for coin, but mainly to pay favorites lor handing one set ot bonds over their counters and taking back another. At this rate $39,00),339 will be cxpcndel in converting tho amount authorized by congress. At this rate $30,000,090 will ba expended in "explaining, adver tising. ccmmending" aud paying '"bonus" to favorites be,ore the entire loan can be converted; for conversion is all there 13 ol It. THE FIRST VIOAATION. Congress appropriated a sum not to exceed one mdiion dollars to pay the entire expense of con verting the fi 'O.ouo.OJO live per ccuts put upon lite market last soring, it Is admitted that Mr. boat well has expended tub four times the maximum al lowed by law. llorein has he violated ooin the let ter and spirit or the law. Congress expressly pro. vidod thai half the amount saved by reduction of interest the brat year shou.d cover the cost of con version. It is admitted that Mr. boutwoll has ex pended more than he can save In two years. congress expressly provided that the expenses of the conversion should not increase the taxpayers' burden a single cent. The burden imposed by Mr. Bontwell's .Syndicate operations Is just two million dollars greater tnan it would have been it he bad 1st the business entirely alone I THE SECOND VIOLATION. The law ot Congress expressly forbids any increase Whatever oi tho bonded debt or the nation. It is notorious that secretary boutwell Issued $2oo,ouo, uoo oi the live percent bunds beiore, mouths before, culling in a like amount or six per coats. Under the head of "Jlebt bearing interest In coin" lu tne last monthly debt statement the secretary gives $8i,7:m, loo us the total amount or new five pei cents onuuuding, whou it is notorious that full ?2oo,oa,ooo nave been bearing interest lor moutns. THIRD VIOLATION. Congress has provided t>y law that the new Ave per cents suan not be disposed of lor less than their vein pat value. it is no orious that the Syndicate, by hook and crook, actually obtained the new bonds trom Secre tary boutwell lor much less than their par value lu 0018. fourth violation -a rino job. The .secretary o: the Treasury is authorized only to exchange the new oonda lor old bonds or sell thorn lor coin, it Is notorious thai Mr. boutwell has taken miliums upon millions of dollars of national bank ocrtilicuies of deposit In exchange 1 or new bonds. ud the ;ith oi September last the Treasury Depart ment held $2t),t)'..'8,-too oi these national bank certifi cates ol deposit, received in exchange for the new bouds. lwcutv-six millions four hundred and eighty-four thousand and lour hundred dollars of these cerudcaios oi deposits ot ooiu were issued by tue fust Nalmual llanx ol Washington, of which Mr. H. D. Cooke, of the firm oi Jay Cooke at Co., U President. i do uot flud anv one who even pretends there were $20, 09,909 o. coin la the First National bank of Washington at any time during the month or September. That institution, nevertheless, found uo trouble in geitlug secretary Bout well 7b take that ainouut el its ocrtihcatos of deposit, bearing uo In terest, in exchange lor United Mates bonds bearing five per ceut interest. H was undeistood at the Treasury Department that .Secretary boutwell would hold tue certlDcates three mouth*; and. at the end ot that time, if the bank was not ready to take them up. either by lurn iug in old bouds or payiug coin, an extension would not bo rofuseu. The transaction was both safe and pruUinble for the bank managers, but teirlbly severe ou ilie taxpayers. But the worst feature of this transaction Is its palpable violation o< the law or Congress, which re guirestbe new bonds to i>o exchanged lor the old or sold at uot loss than meir pur va MMrtradoM Mtifd Owing to the Ulaeeo of IIm Mara mt Walaa. OTTAWA, OM?. Dae. 18, 18T1. The Grand Date and bis party left their splendid apartments la the St. Lawrenoe Bail this morning, and are new the guests of Lord LUgar, the Gover nor General of Canada, at his offloial residence in this oily. The day was one ohnrncMristto of a Canada winter, bat the railing snow did not mate rially impede the progress of the train, which con sisted of four Pullman oars, and was the finest palace or parlor car train that ever Invaded the Dominion capital. There waa bui -a small crowd at the Montreal atauon to witness the departure of the imperial party, bat ho was met at the depot oy quite a largo con course of people, who gave cheers or welcome wbea the imperial visitor made Lis eppearanoe. He proceeded immediately to the residence of the Governor General, followed by a large and entirasia3tio orowd. Here, as in Montreal, there will be no popular demonstration, on acconnt of the illness of the Prtnoeof Wales. The only formality will be an address of welcome by tho Mayor to-morrow alter noon, and in the evening Lady Llsgar will hold a re ception in Donor 01 tho distinguished guest, to which numerous prominent Canadian and American gentlemen have been lnvued. The quiet nature 01 tbe Cuke's visit to Canada has been wholly in deierenoe to bis own wishes. Ex tensive preparations had been made both here aud in Montreal lor a pompous display as well as lor a brilliant ball in each city, but in conseqnenoe of ine illness of tho heir apparent to the Knulish throne the Duke desired that they should be abandoned. He has, nevertheless, received many informal and private courtesies, which has rendered bis visit very agroeabie to himself as well as to tbe people V VIJ swtvvwwsw WW with wuom be bas come lu contact. It tbe Prince couttnues to improve, and his recovery is assured bovonu a doubt, it is probable that the Duke will hereaiter accept sncb demonstrations of welcome as may be accorJed him during the lntiauce of his tourncyiugs turough toe Dominion and the United Itates. The parly will leave here Wednesday morning for Toronto. Cost ol lbo Bull lu Boston.

Before leaving Boston tbe Duke expressed con siderable sympathy for the poor of tbe city, and Major Gaston was most agreeably surprised when the Imperial visitor forwarded to bim the snm of $1,500 lor distribution among tbe deserving poor, wuu an accompanying expression of hope thai they would acoept It to furnish some trlding oomfort.

THE ALABAMA CLAIMS. Meeting at Gene?a?The Tribunal of Arbitration. Statement in Behalf of the United States. [From the Boston Advertiser. Deo. 18.] At a meeting of tne Tribunal of Arbitration ap pointed under the Treaty of Washington the "case" in bebair of the Unltod states was presented by Mr. J. a a Davis. After reciting the provision# of the treaty the statement proceeds:? The United States have the honor to lay before the Tribunal of Ai Duration this tnoir printed case, accompanied by the documents, the official corre spondence and other evidenoe on which they rely. They propose to show oy an historical statement of the coarse pursued by the British government toward the United States, irom the outbreak of the insurrection in the uoutuern States, that thero was on the part 01 that government a studied uuirtend itnosaor hxed predisposition adverse to tne United States, which furnished a oonstant motive lor the several acts of omission and commission bereiu<cr complained or as Inconsistent with Its duty as a neutral. Having adduced the evidence of this fact, the United States will next endeavor to allow wnat they deem to have been tne duues of Great Britain toward the utlited states in respect to the several cruisers. The United states will then endeavor 10 show that Great Britain failed to periorin those dunes, botn generally and spectfloaily, as to each or the cruisers, and that such /allure involved the lia bility to remnueiate the United States lor losses thus Indicted upon them, upon their cituena and upon others protected by their dag. Lastly, the United States will endeavor to satis y the tribunal 01 Arbi tration that it can Und in the testimony ample ma* terial lor estimating the amount of each injuries, and v iu ask the tribunal to exercise the power con* i erred Uy the Treaty of awarding a sum Ingres Vj be paid by Great Britain to the Uui.ed Stat tne claims. Under the hrst bead, namely, that or the nuiriendliness of the British government, the statement reviews the relations between Great Britain and the United States from the treaty or peace in 17*3 to the outbreak of the rebel* Hon. The Ufitea of the various events which marked the beginning of the rebellion are slated wnn minuteness, and the times at wnich tidings thereof reached Europe are carefully analysed, with reference at every point to official documents; and the conclusion is" reached with regard to the Queen's proclamation M of neutrality that the British government received In the aiternoon of the lltli of May, ls6i, its hrst complete and official copy or the President's proclamation; that is, ten days alter Lord Johu Russell had decided to award tuo rights oi belligerency on ibe ocean to the Insurgents; eight days alter the subject nad been referred to the law offloars lor their opinion, and Ave days alter the de* ctsion oi tlio government uponanat opinion bad been ed in the House of Commons. The United announced States admit, in the language or the President's Message to Congress, 6th December, 1869, that "a nation Is its owu judge wheu to accora the rights of beiligerenoy. either to a people struggling to tree themselves from a government they believe to be oppressive, or to independent nations at war with each other." But the United Statos deny that the facts then known to the Brltlsa government justi fied the recognition or the rebels as belligerents, and Htm less Jusiltled the advloe to France to accord the same recognition. Ou the 1st of May, 1861, Mr. Dallas told Lord John Russell that Mr. Adaius had apprised him (Mr. Dallas) of his inten tion or suiting in the Niagara, and that no might be expected In London aoout the 12di or lath. In point of lact Mr. Adatus did arrive in i/radou on the eveuing if the lain or May. The Queen's pro clamation had been Issued on tue uiorntiu of tae same day. Other poiuts made in the statement nuner this head are these:-That the British govern ment studiously concealed Irom the United Slates the fact of its negotiations with France for a con certed recognition or rebel belligerency; tbat the British government entered into direct negotia tions wita Jefferson Davis respecting the Pans Declaration or 1866, the use of the British legation at Washington for such a pur pose being an act ihat might well be regarded an j act of war, and at least to be regardei a- an abuie i oi diplomatic privilege and a violation by tae Queen's Foreign Minister of tne neutrality enjoined on all her subjects by ncr proclamation. The history of the negotiations of lsoi for the adhesion of tho Untied biates to tue Deo'.&ratiou of Fans or 1868 is recited, to prove that the British and Frcacn gov ernment expected the Issue or letters of marque by the rebe.s. and tuat those governments in tended to legalize such letters in the eyes oi law and to countenunco the bearers or ilieui in the de struction or the commerce or tbc United states. The conduct or Great Brbaln In these matters n contrasted wltb that or the United states in the Trent atialr, and, finally, speeches or British states men during tee war of the rebellion, including one of Karl Kusseil as late as Oth June, 1864, are cited, to snow the unfriendly am ram toward the govern* mentol the Union. Lord V.estoury is quoted to show that these various evidences or unirteiMUness are pertinent 10 the case lor the cousiderat.ou of tliu The next head or the statement is an exposition or the duties of a neutral l'ower as they are estab lished by international law. These are deduced irom a great variety oi authorities, such asihi Queen's proclamation, the Foreign Enlistment acts oi Great Britain and the United States, tne history of both of which is investigated, including tne pro ceedings of tho British ro.i a I commission appoint 1 In 1837, the recent act of Parliament in coaforniity with its recommendations, and a judicial opiulou by Sir Robert I'Utllmiore as late as 17th January, 1871. Eminent authorities are cited to prove that interna tional law is a part or the common law oi England. A definition of neutrality naviug been deduced lrc:ident of municipal law. 'ihirl, that a neutral is bound to enforce its municipal la ws and Its ex ecuilvo proclamation, that a belligerent nas the right to ask it to do so and to ask for legislation to increase tue power of tne executive to this effect. Fourm, that a neutral is bouuu to exercise due dil igence to prevent the lilting out, arming or equip ping, within Its jurisdiction, of any vessel winch it has reasonable arc una to believe is in tended to crulso or lo carrv on war against a Power with winch it ts at pejee. Fifth, itiut a neutral is bound to use due diligence to prevent ihe co isiroc lion of such a vessel. Sixth, that a neutral is bound to u?e like diligence to prevent the departure from its jurisdiction ot auv vessel intended to ciuise or carry on war against any Power with which it is at peace, such vessel having been specially adapted, In whole or lu part, within tts jurisdiction, to war* j like use. Seventh, that a nemrai may not permit or suffer either belligerent to make use oi its ports or waters as tne case oi naval operations agaiust the other. Eighth, that a neutral is bound to use I due diligence in Us ports or watere, to pre vent cither beiligereui. from obtaining mere a I renewal or augmentation of military .supplies, or i arms tor belligerent vessels, or ihe recruitment of I men. .Ninth, that when a neutral falls to use all j tue means in its power to prevent a breach oi neu trality of its soil or waters, In any of the loregoiug respects, the neutiul shoulu make coin pen-anon for the injury resulting theretroiu. renin, that this ob- I ligation Is iiot discharged or arrested by ihe change 1 of the offending vessel Into a puoile man-of-war. I Eleventh, tnat tins obligation Is not discharged by I a b aud men', attempt oi me unending vessel 10 1 evade ihe provisions of a local municipal law, I 'I welltli, that the o ence win uot t>e "deposited" so as lo reiei.se the liability of the neuiral even by tne entry ot Hie offending vessel in a port of tho bel- j ligcreni and there becoming a man-of-war, l; any part oi me original fraud continues to Uaug ubout the vessel. I The exposition or "Wherein Great Britain failed to perforin its duties as a neutral," covers a vast I variety of historical detail, noine oi me priuolpal points are the loiiowing:?The pnvl points are the loiiowing:?The pnvl ege oi breaking bulk and transshipment was accorded to reocl ves sel ut Nassau iu December, 1661. The United (states ask tue tribunal to find that tins act, not made necessary by distress, was a violation of the duties of a neutral, ihe vessel* o: war of the United State* were practically excluded irom the haibor of Nassau, while it was open lor free ingress una egress to venule of the insurgents purchased or built and owned by the rebel ntuiionties, bring ing their cotton to be transshipped m British bottoms lo Liverpool au l taking ou board the car goes oi arms una munitions of war which nac' been despatched thither from Liverpool.

This treaty was luce a rock upon the boaeh, showing that the great foicea of civilization had been making program i his U not the first tuno this prinolple i>mi bees recognized. In the eariy Christian days It bad beta acknowledged, in 1858, in France, this great prfe. cH>ie had been practloally shown. Mr. Glad stone, the Premier of Eugiand, then said that was a noble triumph of clvliizaUoa But that statesman was determined *2} a noble and a boiler triumph in this Washington Treaty. The two moat powerful na tions on the face of the earth, instead of going to war, referred their differences to eminent men* (Cheers.) lhat was the grandest triumph in the history of the world, in oonirast with the course Franoe aud Germany pursued, this great event seemed to show to us that wo ought to ftu down and glorify peaoe.

It 'bat there were concessions to nmv*, 'l fb-1' ban paryes might bo satisfied wltnthe imperial justicd of its provisions.
