the serious apprehensions prevailing in England, at the date
of our latent telegrams, of a disruptioo of friendly relations
with America. In the of a war between the two
countries, the Americans would doubtless direct the best
efforts of their navy for the injury of the British-Indian
commerce. more especially of the cotton trade. And, more-
over, the injury that American clipper-built steamers, pri-
vateering in the Indian ocean and Arabian eft, might do to
our shipping may be learned from the destruction that
hu been wrought by the Alabama aloe.. Our Bombay
harbour, and our Indian waters, are at present far from a
state of security spinet the mea-of-war and privateers of a
belligerent power.
The Sindian states that the aspect of affairs with
Persia is threatening. Much important official

likely that a treaty will be ratified between him and
