was no power from which England received
assurances of support more hearty and more
spontaneous than from the United States of
America. Even the Minister of the Union in
this country testified to the cordial sympathy 1
of the Cabinet of Washington, and the nation
over whichit presides. He expressed an APP
prehension as to the duration of our alliance
with France, and our ability, alone and I'M
aided, to resist the overwhelming might OF
Russia; but he desired US to be under no ap-
Fprehension on chat account, for that the Uni
ted States were willing to make our quarrel
their own, and aid US with thousands of stout
hearts and brawny arms.
We cannot blame our Ministers, that in
their urgent need of men they sought to avail
themselves of the resources of the West. At
the same time the government gave most
stringent orders that nothing should be done
in the endeavor to obtain recruits, to violate
the municipal laws of the United States.
However, it unhappily soon became too appa-
rent that the American Minister and the Brit
ish Government had alike mistaken the posi-
ton of our TRANSATLANTIC brethren. The SYM
pathies of the land of freedom were found. in
q great measure. enlisted ON the side of Russia.
Orders were Immediately dispatched to Amer
lea to desist from all attempts to recruit, and
| give no cause of annoyance to the susceptible
| ty # the nation.
! The American ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, how
ever, not to neglect the opportunity of turn
ing public feeling in the interest of the presi-
dental election of 1856. Their Minister at
i London was desired to demand discontinue
ance of all endeavors at recruiting in the Uni
ted States. The British Government answer
ed in the most concillatorys tone that what was
demanded had been already done, and ordered
an explanation which proved highly satisfacto-
ry to the American Minister, who could not
but remember his own sanguine anticipations
of a contrary feeling, and SO for time the
matter remained.
The American Government was not SO
easily satisfied, and returned to the attack with
a despatch, of which we will only permit our
selves to say that it was i'll calculated to re-
Istore good feeling between the two countries,
and by no means fitting acknowledgment
of the readiness shown by our ministry to re-
Icall mistake into which they had been so
+ innocently led. To that despatch the British
Government has rendered temperate but
ldignifed reply, and has seconded its diploma
Icy by strengthening its West India fleet with
the ships which have arrived from the Baltic.
In this position affairs now stand.

States is attracting throughout the British
Empire degree of interest equal to the war

which cannot be denied but the exact cause
of the embodiment is not by any means clear
. Yesterday rumor prevailed here and in Lon

of st. James had either been recalled or would
leave for the United States by the packet

We happen to know through private

Of which his Lordship assured the American
Minister that the British government were
informed on unquestionable authority that
ships were being built and fitted out in the

dies, and on other Of the British possessions
But the interview between the English foreign
Minister and the American ambassador was
SO friendly that the last named parsonage was
to have dined with Lord Clarendon yesterday
, (Friday.)
!. Since this friendly interview took place an
Iarticle appeared in the London Times, which
Mr.. Buchanan may think is calculated to COM
promise him in the eyes of his own govern
ment and the American E.4blic, and he NAV
have looked on the statements which it con-
tanned, as a breach of confidence.
The article to which we refer must have
been inspected by some member of the gov
lernment--possibly by some member of the
Cabinet, and therefore, without at all endors-
ing the rumor to which we have referred, we
can readily conceive Mr. Buchanan's annoy
ance at having his name mixed up with a

referred to in the Times of Thursday.
