THE NEWS BY THE AMERICA.

The Americas mail brings little Of special interest to
the United States.
The London Times keeps up dropping fire against
what magnes Of the warke purposes of the President
manifested by "the insulting mssives of his Foreign
Secretary, and the still insulting manfestoes of his
Attorney General apropos of which it gives column
of trashy and falsehood about the institutions
the United States.
If regard the ucubrations Of the Times evil
dence of the of knowledge of the people of England
rejecting their opinions then shall be constrained to
conclude that London is the inviting field for school
masters on this side Of Tmbuctoo. Let us see. The
British consul at New York got up allowed others
get up him. the story of the barque Maury being Rus
sian privateer, This precious piece of official deuson
reaches London the 22d of October garnished with
very pretty ornamental addition Of projected Irish
sion Of Ireland Thereupon the London Times breaks out
the 25h in spasms Of rage Of Spite and above ALL
terror for the striking feature of that manifestation of
the Times consisted in those commissions Of panic fear of
the United States which it exhibited did attempt
disguise by Of incoherent rawlings Of sheer in
under the Russian ag sweeping British commerce from
the seas; hosts Of fiery Cels wellarmed with Sharps RI
files and Colts revolvers dashing upon Connaugh and
Sussex Wessex, and Essex. At that moment the Times
had no suspicion that it was an ambitious President of
the United States preparing to raise the and
stripes the towers of Westminster Abbey and ST.
Stephens. Oh, no it not then the terrible ambition
Of the government of the United States which troubled
the Times but the weakness of that unable to
maintain its laws Of neutrality in the face of the desperate
awessness and miscellaneous love Of fight pervadng the
people Of the United States single week wrought
marvellous change in the visions of the Times for in that
week to London evidence that the President of
the United States too weak to maintain the laws of
his country but the contrary strong as to maintain
them against the llibnseringn of England herself and
that instead of the American ports being filed with Rus
sian privateesmen, they had been filled with British re-
cruiting officers who English though they might be-
had really been dealt with by the President rs mere
mortal men, nevcrthelcssas the Times now first dis
covers through tho "insung mssives of his Foreign
Secretary" At the time, the Times discovered that
the affair Of the Maury canard of the first feather
and that the British recruiting agents in New York and
Philadelphia in the clutches of sundry very positive
law officers, and the high road some American New

and of soda water, had little recovered from its convu
sions Of the 25h Of October took the spasms again
in aggravated type the I'd of November and so con-
tnued with occasional intermissions Of partial amend
