Mr.. Dallas ia Hnslana.

We extract the following from an In
teresting letter to the New York Her
aid. dated London, April 25th:
You are aware that a percmptory de-
mand was made by Gov. Marcy on the
British Government, last January. for
the recall of Mr.. Crampton, British Min
lister at Washington. Lord Palmers:on,
has not yet complied. with this demand,
and Mr.. Dallas has, according to iustruc-
fious, requested his answer since his ar
rival, ana is daily expecting. it. The
Prime Minister here must lie in u Elk
as we say. If he refuses to recall hs
minister at Washington. it is likely that
Gov. Marcy will send him of, which he
will be justified in doing, for he has
abundant cause III rrovoking Mr. Gramp-
toms completely in the enlistment nat
ter Lord Paimerstnn must choose b.
tween recalling his Minister, who ha.
simply obtyca bis instl u%ctions from
home, or allow him TO be dismissed BY
our government, which would naturally
break off diplomatic CONNECTION for. .
time between the countries. This would
not lead to war, Which it is ridiculous
to think of, but it would create uneasi.
ness on this side, aid ccrtaiLly upset
abe Palmerston Cabinet. The Prime
! Minister is III a " fix" | repeat; but
| he is the best hand in the world to get
out of it. Tbe shortest way would be
for him to hut to Mr.. Champion to re-
sign, and for this timely at Lord Pa
mcrston could give him a better birth AT
home. This would end all difficulty
without bringing up the question ofhoL-
or or dignity. One thing is certain
] Lord Palmerston must get out of this
| scrape without endangering the peace
ful relations of the two countries, fer
the commercial horror of England at
their interruption was SO heartily OK
stressed at the Lord Mayors dinner to
Mr.. Dallas, of last week, that 10 Cabi-
net here can stand au hour which cohtcn:-
plates any thing but amity with the Uni
ted Status.
The Times was compelled by this dc
monstration to come out AMI praise Mr..
Dallas admirable speech TO tie skies,
and its one is completely altered since
the public have read It. No American
Minister to Z. gland ever made Il great
sr hit, for In u few sentimCntious phra.
ses, he demonstrated thatno ~iinpedimen;
stood in the way OF a pacific arrange,
meat, ifsome " inexorable, State policy =
did rot seek another solution. Ht
struck the nail on the head, aud the cy,
Of this country is vigilantly directed Il
the measure of the government. Ii
short, there is 20 mistaking the sent;
mcnts of the English people towards us
for since Mr.. Dallas's happy DEBUT at the
g. Mansion House +" diuner, he has Lea
run down by calls aud invitations fron
the highest in the land, which his ardt,
o1s duties, at the present j~uneture, force
him to- decline. He is quite the topic
of CO.. we. sat on, an, anecdotes o. i
are circulate ahort MIN. One i
:, worth relating:
Many years ago Mr.. Dallas was il

reused by this neglect, and he stoppe'
his visits to his lordship. One day
meeting a mutual FREUD, Byron inquired
: Well, what has become of that Reput
