The finals have been unsettled and de-
dressed by the threatening aspects Of the
affairs. The following is an extract from
leader in the London Tin.es;--"We expect
to hear every day that our Minister Ut
Washington has received his passports and
and is on his way home. That, of course,
will ompel similar proceedings on our part,
with regard to the American Minister. Mr.
Crnmpton and Mr. Brickham, the two inof-
fensive gentlemen representing their Gov
ernments at Washington and London, will
probably pass each other in the Atlantic,
after deploring the existence OF this domes'
tic Quarrel" II further says:--"England
has really apologized enough to satisfy ten
Eurooean empires. We cannot hold her
responsible for the arrangement. The
Americans must reckon on an obstinate re.
sistancs, if they drive US to il. Let them
count the cost be fore they take any fatal
steps Else after two or three PAGES they
will make their calculations in vain"

The Manchester Chamber of Commerce
held it's annual meeting on Monday the 4th

cd by John Bright, III. p, and moved by
the Mayor Of Manchester, was unanimous
Nv adopted. Resolesd That this Chamber
has observed with deep regret, that Difficult.
ties have arisen between the British Gov
eminent and the United States with regard
to the construction of a treaty on the sub
iect of Central America, and the attempts
which are alleged to have been made to en-
list men for the British army within the Ju-
ri,diction OF the United States. This Cham.
Der would urgently impress upon the gov.
erument OF this country the propriety OF
considering these questions in conc'liato-
~ spirit, with a strong determination to
spare alike to the United Kingdom and Uni
ted States indescrbable evil which must
arise from any interruption OF amieable re
Iations between the two countries.
