that this is the case to leave them up 10 the very
last moment the most ample opportunity OF re-
consideration and retreat from a position hastily
and unadvisedy taken up. The consciousness
that we are equal to any encounter that may
be forced upon may well teach Us patience

From The London Tins', June%
We have received fresh intelligence from the United
States as to the progress of Ministerial opinion and
resolution with reference to this country and We are
sorry to find that the prospects OF settlement OF the
dispute seem more remote than ever. we iear tnat
the letter notifying to this Government the dismissal OF
Mr. Champion may be every day expected IN England
This event, which, through the mist OF the future,
calculated to inspire the most gloomy apprehen-
stone seems to have lost little Of it's magnitude it
comes nearer, and 10 be- after ALL not uncomfortable
evil Considering how much we have already borne
how we have apologized and re.apologized-hOw We
have oere to refer to arbitration, and submit
ted to that arbitration refused how We have argued
expostulated, and demonstrated and all to purpose
We may well allow this incident to pass over with the
rest. We have at any rate, in this case the mean-
choly satisfaction that we able to make complete
reprisal, and that fortnight after Mr. Champion has
eas.d to represent at Washington Mr. Dallas will
the United States at the Court Of St. James. There
WILL however be this remarkable difference between
the two csses-that Mr. Dallas has been treated with
all resp CT while Mr. Champion will be ordered to leave
the Territory Of the Union after having endured
more than probably any British Representative
in any foreign court during the present century
has been called upon to submit to. Not only
has Mr.; Champion been subjected to a vr;
tual trial in the persOns Of Messrs. Hertz and
Strobe whose veracity he has publicly and solemnly
disputed apparently not without very sufficient reason
but a new method of anLOy ance has been Uncovered
by which is sought not merely to give color to his
ci.missa but TO affix indeEbe stain hitherto
spotless character and TO send Minister back TO
England not only dismissed, but degraded Mr.. Cramp-
ton has advsedy stated in his letters to Lord Caren
don that Mr.. Clayton, Mr. Marcy, and Mr.. Cass have
severally admitted TO him that Ruatan is undoab;ed
Brtsh possession with which America has not the
slightest claim TO interfere. This statement is met
with denias more or less earnest from the different
persons implicated by il. But, beside these, evidence
ted the fasehood of bis statements. What answer
our Minister may be able to make to these accusations
we do not know. In the meantime, it seems very
difficult TO believe that man Of experience and abli-
~ should male deliberately and advsedly official
statement which he has felt himself, subsequently,
when challenged, obliged to withdraw. Here Mr..
Champions words in the very last letter of the
