THE LONDON TINES WAR.-The foreign pa
pers by the Asia, contain interesting specula-
tions in regard to apprehended difficulties be-
tween this country and Europe, the essence of
which we publish-smong the rest the beli-
cose article of the London Times in relation o
this country, and the comments thereon of
other English papers. Coming at j time when
all was peace and not thought entertained OF
any menacing difficulty between the two coun-
tries, this singular emanation from the Times
will attract much attention, and in this coun-
try cause high degree of irritation against
the British government and people. Neither
the fears nor the threats Of the Times appear,
however, to be responded to by the English
press, though we presume they will meet with
abundant sympathy from certain classes who
in England as we'll as in this county, carry
their national anmOsities in their sleeves and
keep them excited by constant rubbing. The
Times sudden denunciation of American fill
bustersm at time when it has been most eff
fectually repressed by public sentiment in this
country, is evidently only a pretence which
serves it to talk of peace whilst it incites to
war by an acrimonious and insulting TRADE to-
ward a people who have no wish to injure Eng
land, and no cause certainly to fear it.
