british Interests In the North.

The Wilmington IN. O. Journal estimates, or rather
ventures the suppOstOu tha; the amount of Northern
and Western corporation bonds helin Great Britain will
reach Eve hundred millions of dollars. This estimate
probably exceeds the truth very largely. The Journal
thinks this may be the Why Great Britain may
lot recogniz, independence fearing that war with
the cited States will ensue, and the interests OF her
subj scs be forfeited Il Gres Britain contempates the
possibility Of with the North at all she also con
templates the possibility nay feels the certainty, that

teress Of her subjects condition of her making
peace Il will be a clause in the articles OF peace that
the American corporation bonds in the hands of English
holders shall be on the fOotingas those held by
Northern citizens or else Great Britain will not make
peace when, wi h such ally the South abe would
b able 10 compel aequeseenee in her terms 1t may be

WASHINGTON Dec. G.-The Tribune Of the 4th says ::
correspondent OF the Slavery Standard writing from
Washington gives the following Stewards recent de-
caraon which the correspondent heard Seward utter
"The effective part Of the our side is over. There
may be more fghdug bat the less there is Of il the
surer we are Of speedy peace. Every battle saved,
which can be honoraby avoided is gain to the cause
q the UniOu. The real danger is over If We escape
tNe danger 10 be apprehended in our foreign aIis, all
viii be well"
What does the eharlAtan mean9 Is he seeking to
dupe u.s. or bis ON sls-or is he the dupe Of his
oTn trickery few nights ago he assured serensdng
party, in Washington, that glad tidiugs might be
erp,c,ed very sOon. Now, he says the danger is past
the war is over Cameron, on the other hand, pro
claims that the rebels are invinc;ble unless the
desperate eIpedients are at once resorted to- Whom
A's we TO believe
The concluding sentence Of Stewards declaration leaves
IL to be Inferred that he npprehends danger from abroad
The silence Of the message the arrest of Mason and
sde gives rise TO the suspicion that the trickser Is re-
srving to himself loop-hoe for escape. If John Bull
Is Indignant he will apologize and repuiiste the action
o. Wlkes De only fears that John will not afford him
q chance to apologzH.
