It is quite true that many of those 'in this country who have all along aided with the South, and who were most eager to pro voke a rupture with the North, have in the clubs, and other congenial circles, freely assigned this as one of their reasons. But few have had the moral courage to avow it in public. Mr. GL ennox; most justly, declines it altogether on behalf of Englishmen at large. " I do not believe that at " the time when the convulsion commenced there " was one man in a thousand in this country who " had any sentiment whatever towards the United " States of America except a sentiment of &free " tionate and sympathising goodwill—(cheers)— " or who felt anything but a desire that they " might continue to go on and prosper, and to " finish the work, whatever it may have been, " which Providence had appointed them to do. " (Cheers.) I have not the least scruple in saying, " for myself, that my opinion is, that not only " bad England nothing to fear from the growth "of the United States of America, but that, so °I far as we had a selfish interest at all in the matter, our interest was that the American * Union should continue undisturbed." Wilk regard to the future, Mr. GLADSTONZ bspeethat a better understanding and a more cor ad intercourse will exist between the two notions. The frank and honourable conduct of Federal Government and the American people bas given them a fresh claim on our sympathy mid good offices. The two nations understand melt other better for the collision that has termi nated so happily, and should be all the better friends for the future. This is the moral Mr. fkrurrorrs draws from the recent difficulty with reerd to the Trent. Since it has been settled in se prompt and honourable a manner we may fairly hope that " a spirit of brotherly concord " may henceforth regulate the intercourse of the two peoples. The settlement of the difficulty having made us better Wends, he earnestly depre cates any step likely to provoke a colli sion or misunderstanding with the Federal Government and the American people : " Let us form good auguries for the future from " that which now stands among the records of " the past, and let us hope that whatever re " mains, or whatever may yet arise, to be ad " justed in those relations between the two " countries which afford a thousand points of " contact every day, and must necessarily likewise " afford opportunities for collision—let us hope "that, in whatever may arise or remain to be ad " justed a spirit of brotherly concord may pre " wail ; and, together with a disposition to sod " our rights, we may be permitted to cherish * " disposition to interpret handsomely and liberally " the acts and intentions of others, and to amok% " if we can, aggravating the frightful evils of the " civil war in America by perhaps even greater " evils—at say rate, enormous evils to what, " though not a civil war, would be next to • " civil war—♦ny conflict between America and " Regland." Ma. Gi.serross is Ihe bet Cabinet Minister who has spoken in dotal ea the recent difficulty with America, as well as on our general relations with the Northern States, and his just and gene- roue words will be heartily welcomed by right thinking men on both sides of the Atlantic.

The main value of the speech, enhanced, of course, by the high position and au thority of the speaker, lies in this characterisev— its elevation of view and thoughtful impartiality, the anxious desire evinced throughout to do jaw lice to both countries. Mr. Gumtrees rises far above the petty devices mid vulgar temptations which, in discussing this question, seduce so many writers and speakers less gifted, I less honourable, and less high-minded than hiaisislL He has no theory to gratify, no party object be serve by undue depreciation of the Anssolsen people, and covert or open abuse of their Gomm meet and 'institution.

In a fiord, he has no sympathy whatever with that ow measured abuse of everything American, and use measured praise of everything British, whisk bigoted and vulgar minds insult their countzy by denominating an English point of view. On the' contrary, he adopts the maxim inculcated by moralists and instinctively acted on by honourable minds, of endeavouring in any disputed question to place yourself in the position of your opponent' instead of judging his motives and conduct from a purely one-sided point of view. This is a fact identical with that golden rule of supreme wisdom and justice, which all Christian nations professedly accept, of doing to others as you would they should do unto you.

(Per America, viA Quesastoms.) The excitement in regard to the Trent question has materially subsided. • Since the settlement of the Trent affair the Ame rican press has been much morn moderate in its tone towards England. The New York Journal of Costm2ree thinks that Mr. Seward's answer to Lord Lyons does not mettle the question of international law, but leaves it open for England to withdraw from the subject without denying or admitting the law laid down by Mr. Seward. The Journal of Commerce oonaiders, however, that England cannot honourably do this. The New York Evening Post considers that, although Mr. Seward states the informality of the seizure to be the reason for surrender ing Messrs. Mason and Slidell, the real reason is that America cannot afford to go to war with England. The New York Times urges the assembling of an International Congress for the settlement of the question of international law. It is supposed that Messrs. Mason and Slidell will proceed to Europe in the steamer Niagara, which sails from Boston in a few days. The New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, and the leading banks throughout the country, have stopped specie payments. Several New York banks, however, continue to Pay specie. The United States Treasury has also suspended specie payments. The interest on the public debt duo on Ist January will, however, be paid in specie, but the demand notes are no longer redeemed. It is supposed that the Eugenia Smith was an American vessel hoisting British oolours. The Etna has arrived out. The Asia, Adriatic, and Persia arrived at Halifax on the Slat December.

The Dana has news from Naples announcing that the brigands, having been vigorously pursued and hemmed in in the Capitalists, had sought re fuge in the mountains of Gargano, whence they made sallies, keeping the country in a state of alarm. . . . The government, however, have taken measures by which it is hoped tranquillity will soon be re stored. The official Gazette at to-day, alluding to the opening of the Rifle Association, slays :—" Gari baldi much re fretted that he was unable to be pre sent on the occasiou." A letter from Turin in the LoMpewlarre says : If. Brofferio having lately called on the president of the council on some business, Baron Ricasoli is said to have told him that the parliamentary left too much underrated his liberal intentions, bat that be was about to give so striking a proof that no one would say longer dare to doubt them He dm snout to the petition to which several therwand signaamws were affixed, and which M.

He could not now do otherwise than admit that in the kingdom of Italy there was yet an amniotic citizen wanting—the one who wan the first to proclaim and render popular the idea of Italian unity. I cannot say whether Baron Ricasoli will immis diatady carry out his projected amnesty, or whether he will wait for another recommendation from the parliamentary left. but what is certain is, that the measure has been pro mised to If. Brofferio, who communicated the fact to all his politica Mends. M.

(nom ow% owl PARIS, MoSDiT Emma. The answer of the Morning Post of to-day to the question put by the Daily News of Ssturday has , been telegraphed here en resume, and most of the evening papers express astonishment at its insuf ficiency. The Patric says :—" This explanation is scarcely one at all, and evidently calls for another." The Temps' opinion is, that "this pitiful excuse needs no comment, but we doubt much whether the House of Commons, before which the affair must necessarily be brought, will be satisfied with it." The Opinion Nationo.k merely says :—" The Post takes it very easy." The Pays makes no com ment on the news. The Presse describes the answer of the Morning Post as "peremptory," I , but does not otherwise express an opinion. It is to be observed that the two latter journals systematically endeavoured to make the worst of the Trent difficulty while it was pending. Baler's Correspondence mays :—" The Morning Post is not happy in its explanations ; they afford a complete justification for the criticisms of the Daily News." The Bourse opened somewhat languidly, but afterwards improved, and there was extraordinary animation in the latter part of the day. The de cree in the Moniteur imposing a differential duty upon the negotiation of foreign securities was no. unfavourably received, although the indistinctness of the line drawn between what are to be deemed foreign and what home values was re marked. As an instance of the general operation of the measure, it is calculated that the entire annual amount levied upon the Lombard Railway is 150,000 fr.—a sum which will be scarcely felt by the shareholders. Nevertheless, foreign securities did not participate to the full extent in the upward movement of the day. Route rose 50c. for cash and 40c. for amount, closing at 68fr. 90c. and 69fr. Mobilier rose 6fr. 23c. The Italian Loan, after fluctuating between 64fr. 6c. and 63fr. 55c., closed at 631 r. 95c., with a rise of 100. The contradiction of the report of a trentenary loan in Italy was generally believed, though some say now that it will take place, but it is to be only SO millions instead of 120. Railways were from Mr. to Mr, higher. Admiral Bonard, the newly-appointed French Governor of Cochin China, arrived at Saigon on Dec. 8, and immediately assumed the duties of his post. It is expected that by February he will re osive the reinforcements intended to complete his forces, and that he will immediately organise a grand expedition against Hue, the capital of the Annamite empire. News from Havannab to Dec. 11 reports, that by order of President Juarez, the Mexican troops had evacuated the ports of Tampico, Tabasco, Cam peche, and all the other ports of the coast which they occupied. The inhabitants of those places bad not fled, as was reported, but, following the example of Vera Cruz, had organised provisional governments. M.

This is a pleasant peep behind the scenes of a French government journal. A ukase of the Emperor of Russia has abolieht the preventive censorship of the press in Finland. The Correspowlancia of Madrid states that the Infant Don Enrique and his son were nearly suffocated on the 7th by emanations from ealor(iffre. Count de Bernntorif, Minister of Foreign Affairs in Prussia, has, according to a Berlin letter, introduced since the lit of the year an innovation in the mode of com municating with his agents in foreign countries, as, instead of employing the French language as previously, he writes in German. The new Archbishop of Warsaw, Mgr. Felinski, is only 38 years of age. fie was presented to the Holy See by the Court of St. Petersburg, and the Pope mails no objection to the choice, but, on the contrary, he was well pleased with it, as all the information received as to the capacity, seal, and opinions of Mgr. Felineiri was meet favourable. The government of Baden appears decided to set the example of suppressing the gaming-houses. The pre sent Minister at the German Diet is one of the most ardent promoters of that measure. It appears that the existing agreement is in force until the year 1870, but that from 1888 both parties have the right to banal it.

The mumbles for the Christmas week of each year were, 1847, ,4 467-231/.. ; 1856, 2,R33-128/. 9a. 5& ; 1857 2,816-1501. 13s. 7d. ; 1861, 2,150-148!. 15e. 2d. A dime** ensued, in the course of which some gentlemen expressed themselves fa vourable to • subscription for the relief of local distress, while others urged that it would suffice for present require invite that the stricter orders of the Poor-law Board should be relaxed, or suspended, so long as the distress continued. K. Bar on?, IL - P., said that Rochdale was better circum dented than some other towns, in that it had =other trade besides cotton to rely upon. Then again, of the the 00-operative societies' had taught a large proportion people provi dence, and in this respect, at least, had date good, whatever objections some people might have to them on other grounds. He considered it would be • great misfortune to give people to understand that they might spend whatever they liked in us times, and that in a time of diatribes a fund = ro be subscribed for their relief. Looking at the agoras which had be read, he could not avoid ooming to the conclusion that the calling of the meeting was pre mature. It was obvious that for systematic relief of distress, the most eflitheot machinery was the poor law, but there was one great difficulty in the feeling— arising from a commendable source--of humiliation in the receipt of poor law relief. The self-respect and independence of mind which this feeling betokened were commendable, and he considered that it might be held in respect without any new mode of relief being organised. The Poor-law Board mightbe asked, without any what he might call mealy-mouthineem. to grant the guar dians powers, in certain cases, to relieve, on the under standing that in prosperous times the amount advanced should be repaid. It was possible that some of the mill owners would& so with those who might be called their fixed hands. He forgot whether any public subscription was opened is 1847, but he knew that in that year his firm made such dehisces es he had referred to, and that there was scarcely • farthing lost. (Hear.) Some of the bor rowers, indeed, who had removed to other towns, actually came back when the firm got to work lin order to pay off their loans. That, he considered. told much for the chit meter of the people. (Hear, hear.) Th e Poor-law Board would not, he - thought, re quire much pressing at this moment. The commissioners, like other members of the government, wished to keep things quiet if they could ; and they would not be found so difficult to deal with as they might have been in prosperous times. He must con fess that he was not disposed to take so sombre • view of the crisis as many did.
