LONDON, FRIDAY, MARCH 10:

Lair night Lord ROBB'S CECIL put a question
to the Government on a subject which has lately
acquired • factitious importance. Great pains have
been taken of late to persuade the public that the
Government of the United States Is nursing a
grudge spinet us, and the' next Liverpool steamer
will take out to America the astounding mention
of one of our principal journals, that this fact makes
Englishmen less eager than they otherwise would be
for the termination of the American war. It was
very difficult to support these representations of
the policy of the Government of the United States
by • reference to facts, but theclaims which that Go-
vernment made long ago upon our own for damages
sustained by its peaceful citizens by the depreda-
tions of the Alabama are matters of roomed.
It was therefore thought expedient by thee*
who on this side of the Atlantic make it their
business to cultivate • policy of distrust between
the two countries, to represent that the Govern-
ment of the United States was pressing claims
which it would be the duty of our own Government
to resist. Lord ROBERT Czar.'s question of last
evening grew oat of the state of opinion which
these representations had fostered. He asked—
" Whether any communications had been received
" during the last six months at the Foreign-office
" from the American Government, or the American
" Minister, demanding compensation for losses
" occasioned to citizens of the United States by
" the operations of the Alabama or other vessels
" conimissioned by the Government of the Conte-
" Berate States." The question was answered I
by Mr. LAYARD, who stated that "no such
" communiustion had been received from
" the American Government." His reply
will disappoint the hopes that have been fed on
the prospect of an embroilment of this country
with the United States ; but we are greatly
mistaken if it has at all disappointid the authors
of the alarming reports which have so industriously
been circulated, to the destruction of public con-
fidence, the limitation of business, and the
depreciation of property. These men are adepts in
the trade of spreading false news, and whether
they announce a great European league against
England—as in the spring of 1849—0 r the cer-
tain conclusion of a peace—es last August—the
effect is equally disastrous, overthrowing commer-
Mel houses and bringing families to ruin. There
is no journalist in • position to be celled oa
to state the relations between the Govern-
ments of Great Britain and Al3l4ffidi who
has not always had the means of knowing the facts
stated last night by Mr. LAMAS!). Owing to the
form of Lord ROBERT CECIL% question, the whole
truth could not, however, be stated in Mr.
LAYAZD'S reply. As long ago as October, 1863,
Mr. SINTARD wrote to Mr. ADAMS a despatch,
afterwards published in all our newspapers, in
which the writer set forth the grounds on which his
Government claimed to hold that of Great Britain
responsible for the damage done by the Alabama.
Having stated these, Mr. SRWAILD proceeded thus:l
" In saying this, however, it is not to be under-
" stood that the United States intend to act dog-
" matically or in • litigious spirit. They are
" seriously and earnestly desirous to maintain not
" only peace, but even amity, with Great Bri-
-44 tax, This Government confesses
" very freely that it does not regard the present
"hour as one that is entirely favourable to • I
" calm and candid examination of either the facts
" or the principles involved in such oases as the
" Alabama. It looks forward to • period when
" our intestine war shall have ceased, sod the
" interests and passions which it has awakened
" abroad as well as at home shall have subsided
" and disappeared. Though indulging • confident
" belief in tlie correctness of our positions in re-
" gard to the claims in question, and othei* we
" shall be willing at all times hereafter, as well as
" now, to consider the evidence and the arguments
" which her MAJSATT'S Government may offer, to
" show that they are invalid, and if we shall not
" be convinced, there is no fair and just form of
" conventional arbitrament or reference to 'which
"we shall not be willing to submit them."
