ENGLAND.
In Parliament, on Friday night, Mr.. Gladstone
stated that on Monday last when Lord Palmer
ston announced the intention Of the government
to continue diplomatic relations with the Ameri.
can Minister, he did not give any explanation OF
the motives which led to that course, nor advert
to the conduct Of the American Government In
the dismissal of Mr.. Champion. At that period
there was reason to expect an immediate discus
sion OF the question, and therefore he might have
thought that explanation at that time premature.
He thought it important that the House should
know, as early as possible, the nature Of the reply
the government intended to give to Mr.. Marcys
despatch respecting the dismissal of Mr.. Cramp-
ton. He wished to know when the government
upon the table.
Lord Palmerston said that Mr. Gladstone rightly
understood the motives that induced him to alb
stain on Monday from making observations upon
the subject. Motives equally as strong prevailed
on the present occasion. He would therefore saw
in reply to the qlestion, that he had no doubt of
being able to lay all the papers upon the table, in
GLIDING Lord Clarendons answer to Mr. Marcy, 10
the course Of the next week and probably at an
early day.
Sir j. Packington said the honorable gentleman
had acted quite right in asking the government
for the production of the papers, and he was glad
to hear that in the course of few days the House
would be in possession of the answer returned to
Mr.. Marcy's despatch. II would perhaps be only
fair towards the government to postpone any dis
cusson on their conduct with regard to the enlist
ment question, until the despatch was produced,
but he earnestly hoped that discussion would not
long be delayed. ,r
He spoke in no party sense and with no party
object, when he said that he regarded with feelings
of the greatest an1iety-he might almost say Of
shame-the present state of our relations with
America. For the present painful position of af-
fairs he attached the blame judging only from the
public documents which were in the hands of hon.
orable members, to what he considered to be the
serious misconduct and unwise policy of Her Ma.
gesty's government, by which the government Of
the United States had been irritatei, deceived,
and offended Under these circumstances he re-
GREETED that Mr. Baltic felt himself under the me-
cessity of Withdrawing his motion, but he trusted
that the intention Of Mr. Moore, Or some other in
dependent member would afford honorable mem.
bers on the conservative side Of the House an OPP
portunty Of calling attention to the real merits of
the question.
Sir G. Grey strongly deprecated the tone adopt
ed by the Hon. Baronet in expressing 30 decided
an opinion upon the question at the present mo.
ment. he was glad to find, not only from the
cheers on his own side of the House, but from
the manifest indications on the side of the hon
orable Baronet, that his views did not meet with
general concurrence.
Mr.. Moore appealed to Lord Palmerston to APP
point an early day for discussion upon the cub
ject.
No answer was returned, and the subject was
dropped.

which two thousand invitations were issued. Mr..
