ARRIVAL OF THE BRITISH QUEEN.

AhhIN AL Or 1 he Dill 1911 QUEEN.
The British queen arrived in N. Y. on
the morning of the 5th inst. bringing full
London and Liverpool files to the 10th Of
March.
The people of England appear to have
been PanicSlruck at the intelligence which
reached that country by the packets Geo.
Washington, U. States, and Westches =
ter, from ~ Y. The first named vessel
took out the news of the s!oppage of the
u. Stales Bank-the second that of the
Indictment of Mcleod, and the Westches-
ter Mr.. Picken's Report in Congress on
the Mcleod affair. These three cause
combn ID, created a sudden panic among
all classes of persons, and the Funds at
the Stock Exchange we're materially low
cred in consequence.
We find it utterly impossible in our lin
tied space, TO give at this moment even
synopsis of the comments of The press
upon this intelligence, but upon Mr.. Pick
ems report which seems TO have created
the greatest shock the Glope says-'The
painful effect of this ntemperate party
document must otherwise produce on
the strongly cherished hopes of the peo
pie of this country, of an anikable adjust
ment ofthe dispute, will be much relieved
by the tone of the principal speakers in
the debate which ensued on the question
of printing the report.
''We see nothing in this manifesto of
empty and unreasonable denunciations
qualified as they are by the strong express
sions of dissent and reprobatiOn with
which it was received, to shake our belief
that peace will be preserved
The Morning Chronicle Of the 9th says
The publication of this report created
considerable uneasiness. In this feeling
we confess, we do not altogether partic-
pate. The very men who drew up this
document-it is plain upon the face oft
must have felt they were putting their
names TO case upon which no nation
would venture TO enter upon hostilities.
The languag Of men who either were con-
vinced that they had a good cause,
or we're determined TO go to extremities
in bad one"
The Times says-tWe shall not quote
from this offensive and unjust TRADE, but
we earnestly invoke our readers to study
it, in extense, for themselves, and then
Judge what chance exists of fair or just
treatment of Great Britain from these au-
thoriiies with which such catalogue Of
insults could have originated.
"If the Harrison Government be, as we
believe it will be, against the report, is
there not ground TO fear that they too may
be too feeble to resist the factionp
From the money articles in the same
papers we find that this American news
caused panic in the markets.
The Dispatch says-'The stOppage of
tho u. S. Bank will cause great deal
cf misery here as well rs in America -
