THE BRITISH premier AND THE U. STATES.
Lord Palmerston, in The course of a speech which
he recently delivered at Tiverton, thus alluded to
the course pursued by the American authorities
in China:
We are often told to look to our cousins in the
States as models Of conduct, and there some
in which they might just we'll look to us, "a
Taught but IL We beg of the advocates Of the
peace to address themselves with ''eyes rightn to
the United states, pray what did their command
er do in this very difficulty in China in cOmpari-
son with our Officers, civil and naval, Why
there was boat belonging to one of their ships
of war fired ar. Well, that was a great insult
but there might have been an excuse made for it
that we Were engaged in these hostlities with
China, and il might have beon said that this
American was laken for an English boat. 1t is
true tile officers in that boat waved the American
flag, but the Chinese might have said II is a well
known strategy of war. and you wave the Amer
lean flag TO deceive us we believed IL an English
boat, and therefore fired at it. But did the Amer
Jean commando, like Sir Michael Seymour and
Sir John Bowling, demand an apology and de-
Inand that similar thing should not occur again?
Not the least in the world.
He inverted the usual course which is said to
be characteristic OF energy-a word and blow
he put il thus-a blow and a word (cheers and
laaghter) He began to knock down the fort
and after destroying that fort he sent to the Com
missioner to say insult had been offered to his
nag, and he hoped for an apology. (cheers, } and
an assurance to the effect that it would not hap
pen again (cheers;) and he gave twenty four
hours Tor Tins apology and explanation to be sent
to him but before this twenty -four hours had
expired the ship which was lying near the fort
saw something or other going on which the ofti-
GERS shrewdiy imagined Were for renewed de-
fence, II not for renewed attack. Well, this
American officer, without waiting and writing to
the United States to know what to do-without
waiting for orders from Washington-he did not
wait even for the twenty four hours to expire
but he said, ono, no, Mr.. Chinaman, this won't
do; you are throwing up fresh batteries and put
ting in fresh guns" and he commenced the de-
moliton Of the fort and took possession Of those
guns before the time had expired which he had
given the Chinese Commissioner in order to make
his apology and explanation. CHEERS

EX-President Pierce.

PHILADELPHIA, April 20.
Editor Star: Ex-Presdent Pierce is in New
Hampshire, but is expected here on Wednesday
next. The citizens here have been most attentive
to him-have preferred entertainments and recep-
tons, public and private, in every form, but all
Of which he has declined. He however sees
everybody, talks to every body and, it seems to
me, fascinates everybody.
Mrs. Pierce is steadily improving in health, al
though still great invalid. 1t is probable that
they will go to New England in the early days Of
