I3oston Transcript.
At no previous tIme since he took the oath
of 0(11cc ( has the president had as delicate
a problem to deal with and as large a re-
sponshbhlhty to meet as at the present.
Upon him doveoives the duty of establishing
a peace that simail accomplish all for which
war was dechareci , be generous to our enemy
and leave the shipo of state riding securehy
iii the safe harbor of its long-tried ropub-
hicanism. Congress is not in session ,
but even if it u'ero it would have no business
to meddle with the preliminary negotiations.
The president has an opportunity such as has
been presented to few of hula predecessors ,
to mutake a great name for himself , and we
believe thuat he possesses enough wise die-
comment to look below the yeasty sentiment
that always rises to the surface of affairs
during a successful war anti see what the
sober judgment of the nation desires antI
expects. The question Is one for ( lie broadest
statesmanship to deah with ,
When the history of this present conflict
comes to be impartially written , the part
which the president has taken in it up to
tim present time will receive the cordial
approval of the candid historian. As far as
it was possible for , him he exhausted the
resources of diplomacy before ho consented
to a declaration of war at nil. Ho tefOsed
to be hurried into it hy the pressure of
jingoism anti sensationalism , and when at
last ho yIelded to the inevitable lie did so
in a conservative manner that kept witluin
safe limits the reckless hmpetuoaity which
would have hurried us Into all sorts of
dangerous excesses.
Since hostilities began he has conducted
the war with energy and skill , and con-
sidening how unprepared we were he has
accomplished more than those who did not
entirely ignore tllo condulions expected. flut
he has conducted it in his own way and it
has been a much wiser way tluan though be
hInd paid any attention to the exhortations of
those newspapers that have been dulgently
manufacturing a brummagem public opinion ,
It has been a vigorous war , but it has never-
thebes been a humanitarian war in its
methods as well as its purpose , Yet In
three monthus be baa accomplithed so much
that Spain anxiously inquires upon what
terms It can secure peace ,
That inquiry brings thuo president to the
most ditilcuit portion of hula task. That he
will have a conviction of what lB Just and
riglut hut the premises we do not doubt.
That ho should have tluo courage tf that
conviction Is equally necessary , Ills
authority In the first negotiatiouls is so large
( hat ho can act wIth a comparatively free
hand and that which he and the represent-
ativee of Spain may agree upon will be sub-
atantially the terms of peace , The senate
does not keep in as close touch wIth the
feelings of the people as the house , but it
learns something during the vacation sea-
eons , and to throw down an arrangepteut
establishing peace , to which the parties
most interested and this natiopa of the earth
had adjusted their ideas , would be a
hazardous proceeding , This president has
been wiser titan congress durIng this whole
contnoyersy and it ha gratifying and reassuring -
suring , now that events are approachIng a
crucial point. that so much rower at the
outset rests In his bands , It he will act
as his own judgment dictates in this matter
wo can afford without apprehension to await
the result. , -

PEACE TREATIES OF TIlE PAST.
Slow Former VnrsVcre hirought to
flit Antienhle COnCIIIM1)1I ,
Philadelphia Ledger.
As a rule , the setthcrnont of the terms
of peace treaties Is a rather deliberate
process. In former wars iii which the United
States was engaged the troops were lcept In
the field for a considerable period after the
war was practIcally at an end. ' It requires
seine time to arrest the momentum of
war , though the speedy disbandment of
armies , after the necessity ( or theIr existence -
once Is over , is highly desirable for ninny
reasons. rorntcrly ( lie lack of quick corn-
nitunication prolonged wars after peace hati
been formally agreed upon.
Two treaties of peace \vero signed after
the revoitutionary war. The preliminary ar-
tides were sIgned at I'arie , November O ,
1782 , They were ratified by congress April
15 , 1783. The final or definitive treaty 'as
not signed until September 3 , 1783.Vash -
higton hestued his farowchl address to time
army November 2 , 1783 , and time army was
formally disbanded out the following tint.
Nearly a year passed between the signing
of the preliminary pence treaty and thto dissolution -
solution of the Amorhcaui army.
The frequcultly recalled battle of New Orleans -
leans was fought two weeks after the peace
agreement between the United States anti
Great firitnin lund been siguuetl at Ghent.
The treaty was signed Deceunbor 2 , 1814.
It did not reach Now York until February
11 , 1815 , In the meantime ( ho unnecessary
battle of Now Orleans had been fought , as
well as the naval battle between ( lie United
States frigate Presitlent anti four British
frigates. Stuclu 'as the slotm'ncss of Internal -
nal communication iim those days that desultory -
tory hostilitIes 'cro kept up for several
days oven after the arrival of the treaty in
Now York , Modern telegraphic commnuni-
cation wlhi prevent such incidents in future
wars ,
In tluo Mexican war the granting of an
armistice from August 21 to September 7 ,
1847 , by General Scott to the Mexicans after
the battle of Cberubusco was prophetio of
peace , but the formal jmeaco treaty was not
signed until February 2 , 1818 , and ratified
May 19 , 1848 , Iii tIlts instance there does not
appear to have been a preliminary treaty ,
thus purpose of which is to set forth the general -
oral terms of peace and to note items to ho
settled in ( ha final treaty , Iii ( lie civil war
there was rue peace treaty , for the reasOn
that there was no recognizable power with
which ( Ito United States could deal after
the collapse of the confederacy.
Pence treaties becotnu binding upon tIme
powers signing them from the date of signr
ing , but it is haiti down by autluorlties on
internationah law that when ( lie war luatm
been on the sea or In distant regions the
treaty should contain a stipulation that cap-
tunas made between the date of signing and
actual ratification of the treaty shah be re.
stored , It Is a principle of international law
that when a power traui&fers Iii a treaty of
peace some of Its territory to the victor
the fealty or allegiance of the inhabitants
of the transferred territory to the hag of the
conqueror is not guaranteed. Under the law
of nations there is nothing to prevent an
exodus Of all the people of transferred teru'i-
tory it they choose to go , The modern doe-
trifle is that allegiance iii founded wholly on
consent ,
Itis probable that the final treaty of peace
between , the United States and Spain will
be an elaborate instrument , owing to tue
many Spanish lslan'Is and dependencies
whose future status must bo fixed in the
document. The disposition of theu posses-
siena mCat be settl4 by express stipul.
