ENGLAND AND AMERICA.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—Pray publish in your influential journal a communi-
cation you will see in the Times of this• day, dated Paris,
October 24, and signed by a " States"-m an, -headed " Eng-
land and America." The Times in London. and the New
York Herald in New York, are doing everything in their
power to create a hostile spirit between the English and
Americans, and they are succeeding much better than every
true Christian and well-wisher to both countries can desire.
The most perfect harmony and brotherly love ought to
exist between these two kindred nations ; but I am grieved
to say that the breachbctween them is widening every month,
principally owing to the unprincipled, and unscrupulous, and.
mendacious writings of the New York Herald and the Lon-
don Times. Who knows that these two worthies are not in
league with one aeother? When Bennet, the Scotch rene-
gade, the contemptible editor of the New :York Herald, was
in London some time ago, he was very intimate with the
editors and proprietors of the Times; and I see the most fre-
quent quotations in the Times from the New York Herald,
whilst the respectable and well-conducted Ameri-
can papers, such as the Boston Daily Advertiser, the
New York Commercial, the Philadelphia United States Ga-
zette, or Philadelphia North -American, or the Baltimore
Patriot, or the Washington National Inielligencer, ate en-
tirely neglected, and never referred to or quoted from. As
well look for the genuine and respectable public opinion of
the United States in the New York Herald, as search for the
respectable public opinion of England in the London Age and
London Satirist. I hope, Mr. Editor, you will publish the
Paris article I refer to, because it shows, in a temperate and
enlightened manner, the evils and inconveniences likely fo
arise between England and America principally owing to tl.e
unwise and unpatriotic writings of a portion of the press on
both sides of the Atlantic. Most sincerely do I hope the
most amicable relations may always exist 'between our two
countries, and that the only strife shall be, which shall be
foremost in promoting the blessings of peace and the art&
most calculated to civilise and benefit mankind.

TOTHEOF THE TIMES.

Sir,—ln order that you may not refuse to insert in s.our
columns the following remark, whose purport is peace, on an
article in your number of the 22d inst., wh6h has just met
my eye, I will make them as short as posrible. I might send
them to another journal, and through the hands of a distin-
guished man, whose name alone would procure them pub-
licity, but I prefer to address them directly to you, and trust
to your magnanimity.
It is a matter of observation among the English that the

inhabitants of the United States "hate them'," and wouht,
on the slightest provocation, or with no provccation at all,
be glad to rush into a senseless war. This is not true, but
it is so generally believed by them, that a very short time
since I was requested to write a letter, demonstrating the
contrary, to be put into the hands of one of the leading men
in your country. We do not hate you, but all the actual
wrongs you could heap upon us would hardly stir up such
bitter blood as the venomous outpourings of the Quarterly
Reeiew and other periodicals have done.
