Légende

Count Sclopis, President of the Geneva Court of Arbitration, 1872. 'There have been many reports, chiefly from American sources, that the decision of the Geneva Tribunal has been arrived at, that it is against England, and that the amount of the pecuniary award to America is even in course of being settled. But nothing definite is known, and these rumours may not contain a particle of truth...There is every confidence in the probity and intelligence of the arbiters and in their earnest desire to mete out even-handed justice between the two claimants; and, whatever may be their decision, in will be readily acquiesced in by both countries. Count Sclopis, the president, represents the King of Italy. He is a jurisconsult of great repute in Italy, and has been for several years President of the Italian Senate'. From "Illustrated London News", 1872.
