WASHINGTON CITY, June Is.
The reader will ind something 70

the foreign articles inserted in this
days Monitor. The cabinet council
that was called Immediately upon the
arrival of MIR. Rose in London was
significant of the anxiety of the British
ministry to learn something authentic
with regard to the disposition of the
government of the u. States. Thar

But it does not appear to me that
the representations of Mr.. Rose will

IN opposition to the dictates of reason
