Extract ofa letter from the AMERICAN Consu!
ard 20. at Liverpool to his friend in this City,
dated,
LIVERPOOL, Nor. Z, 1879
Your attention is, no doubt, earnestly directed
to the consideration of the probability OF speed,
termination OF the War, and OF the line Of conduct
mat rs iikeyt 10 be pursued by this Country in fur
thclanoe OF that object.--From all the informa-
ton ". possess the subject we think the prcya-
lent Union to he that abandonment OF the right
| OF impresSment, restitution OF American pro.
perty condemned under the Orders 10 Council need
not TO be eXpested, lnng as the present Minis
tiers remain in Office :; and, that as they viii proLa-
by nave strong majority in the ensuing ParIia-
inent, together with the support of the Marquis
We!esley's & Mr.. Canning party there ON ali nc
eas'ons where the Policy Of the War with America
rs brought INTO question: may look for vigorous
prosecution OF the contest, il Congress do not deem
the repeal OF the Orders in Council satisfactory
| " In case OF q failure OF Sir John b. Warren's
rni;son, the attention of this Government will be
directed 10 the means Of continuing the necessary
| supplies OF Provisions for the Peninsula and the
| british West India Colonies, of procuring certain
articles OF american Produce required for die con-
sumption OF this Country, and of relieving their
Manufacturers by facilitating, much as possible,
! propoit'onate export of British Goods.
| " II is generally believed that provisions whether
the property OF Neutras or Enemies, will be UNI
! mcested by this Government when imported into
the Peninsula from the United States: but whether
Licences for that purpose will he granted Amer
Iean shipping as before or to Neutral Vessels only,
| Government has not yet determined =
:. Provisions and Lumber will be so much want
ed In the West India Colonies, that the import of
those articles will probably, be permitted either un
DER licences, or by instructions to the respective
| Governors to that effect.
| " With respect TO the American Produce which
may be required for the consumption OF this Coun-
try 1t Is difficult to hazard an opinion as to either
the particular articles, the of the import
which may be perntted.--FIaxseed Clovcrseed
Naval stores Wheat, Flour and Rice are likely to
De scarce, ana an opinion is entertained that they
w'li be allowed to be imported in Neutral bottoms;
but, perhaps, subject TO proportionate export in
| such Vessels, Of British Manufactures
| The arrival IN London of a few Licences from
France, Tor importation of Cotton into that Country
| has caused more demand for the article, as it will
| take about 5000 Bags out of the London market
| " we beg to refer you to the annexed quotations.
! which are the current prices Of this day.
and are very respectfully,
Your most obedient servants
| JAMES MAJRY & CO.

declaring the Licences, Passports valid, that
were grantedby Admiral Sawyer to American Yes
ses carrying provisions to the Peninsula and direc-
ting that all suc Vessels, having been detained bv
British Cruzers shall be released"
