reared, purporting to be dispatch written

knowledging his having forgotten to submit
the British proposal for arbitration to the
Secretary of State of the United States, on
tn 9th OF February last, with reference to
the existing disputes on the subject Of Cen
trail America, was authentic.
Lord Palmerston replied, that the dispatch
IN question was correct copy of letter sent
by Lord Clarendon to Mr. CHAMPION, but 1t
must be obvious from the whole dispatch
that no inconvenience to the public service
had occurred from the accidental delay of Mr.
Champion in presenting the letter, because
the same offer of arbitration had been COM
municated to Mr.. Marcy through Mr.. Blu
chanan.

whether, with British property to the amount
OF more than three millions of pounds ster-
ling locked up in Russia, it was the intention

OF Peace, and whether, if the blockade We're

that the armistice extended to sea as well as
to land.
