ing declined to accede to the de-
mands Of the American Minister, he

The news of the death of Presi-
dent Taylor produced great sensa-
ton in England. The leading jour-
mails devote much space in reviewing

f1ict will ensue.

blockade. There was an action be-
tween a man-of-war and a German
steamer, on the 2lst, in which the
former suffered considerably.
