The BIockade and ForeIwu Powers.

WAsHEGToS, Aug. 9o.-As much is
saiG abou! the attitudes of the European
powers threatening the blockade, after
special inquiry at the State Department,
there is authority for saying tha. in the
instance that when the Niagara was off
the station OF Charleston harbor for TWEEN
ty -four hours, Lord Lyons brought the
subject to the notice of the United States
Government. With that exception, which
happened twelve weeks ago. no foreign
government has expressed word of dis
content, concerning the blockade. On
the contrary, it is universally respected
by foseign governments. although some ol
their subjects are very active in endeav,
oring to evade the blockade, and are very
clamofous against it.
