wet6 received News was also received oil me
advance of the American troops to the RIO
Grando.
Intelligence from this country to tn l6!h
nit. was received on the 18th, via Havre' II
embraces the news Of the passing Of the notice
in Congress, which, OF course, was regarded as
the event Of chief Importance. The daily pa
pers all common upon it. Generally it's not
regarded as a belIigorent measures, mr. does
there seem to be any marked apprehension OF a
war as a result. The Morning Herald thinks
it likely enough that the American Govern
ment is disposed to renew negotiations, and
thinks that the glorious success Of the British
arms in Asa, was Of considerable importance
10 a calculating nation like American In
short. the Herald thinks that there is a chance
that the question will return to the position II
held SOME months since. 1t thinks from OH
eial statements, that the Americans are not a
BILE, in the event of war, to take Canada and
closes its article thus:
"We would advise them to look nearer home
and while their imagination is running up
on the plumber of a rival alton, let them
take heed for New York. The Terrible, the
Retnbution, Cyclops and !other steam-frigates
would be rather unwelcomo visitants in the
United States Capitol, if they came in warlike
guisc. But as we have said, We do not anti
cipaie immediate war, the present resolution
will, without doubt, end in renewal OF negotia-
lions. How those negotiations themselves
will terminate depends in a great measure up
on the continuance ofSir R. Peel in office. If
England submits to domination, at the hand OF
~aposlate rulers athome, bullied she undoubtcd-
ly will be abroad"
The Times thinks that the form in which
the resolutions passed is extremely dignifed
and becoming, and looks upon it as o triumph
ofthe moderate over the ultra party. 1t closes
its comment with the following declarations;
"Thus far, then, and in more respects thar
one, the American notice materially improves
the prospects Of a speedy settlement. 1t re
cognizes, in general terms the basis upon which
alone such a settlement can be attemp
ted, and, by putting an end TO the period o
: joint occupancy, itprepares US to maintain t
the fullest extent the rights we derive from
present occupation. Whatever be the fate o
provisional treaties, we presume that no on
J will contest the rights and interests which hav'
grown up by their protection and authority ar,
sacred, both under the letter Of those treatie!
: and under the original rights to which we noN
revert in all their force. Our position as clair
ants upon an unequal footing with the Unite
= States fafthe partition Of the whole territory
dispute IS rather strengthened than weakene
by the abrogation Of the treaty, and we cannc
doubt that the ministers of the Crown will B
ready and upon the receipt of the notice firm
: ly and explicitly I odeclare to the Cabinet
: Washington, what those rights are which the
z have long been ssresolved and prepared to mail
hs tain.n Every incident which has occurred
the course of these discussions has more al
. more fully convinced us that whilst q compr
:. mise is necessary, and indeed, our own stat
ment of our claims suggests a division, no su
:, render can be attempted.
W. are not conscious of having advanced al
" argument, OF made any assertion, which is n
greatly within the %strictest limits to wifi
British rights might have been carried and b
low the line which has been traced for the Pc
J icy of this country lies nothing but4insecuri
and disgrace. To that position we thereto
g adhere; we have no doubt that the ministers
the crown will adhere to it no less firmly, CO
fdent that, in the maintenance of just rlgh
as well as in securing peace, they are suppo
ed by the unanimous resolution Of the peoT
~ of England.
In Parliament nothing has been done. T
debates on the Corn laws are still continued
There was an increased public confidence Il
the new measures Of the ministry would p
vail, but no further action had taken place.
The London Herald announces that the b
ish Government has entered into q further CO
-. tract with the British and North Americ
-. Royal Mail Company, by which a steamer v
ma l
ia leave Liverpool for New York every alterni
~ Saturday during eight months Of the year,
addition to the present regular trips to BOst
~ which are to sal, however, on Saturdays. I
,oro will give a weekly communication between
two countries. A steamer will leave Liy
,iob pool every Saturday and one will also leave
Their Boston or New York on the same 4
This is an important announcement, if Il
and we take it for granted thatwOuld not
!. erwise have been made.
u, A great deal Of ill-feeling prevails among
~laboring people, and in several instances sv
49,. have occurred among the operatives. 1t
- public meetings of the san class are also
\ %quently made.
