Frothe New York Herald.l Policy of EnglanA and France Toward the Twoonfederacies.

ed policy of Mr. Icoln's administration to blockade the hts of those southeil States which bayelceded from the Union the news which publish to-day iron England and F'rae must be regarded O the highest importce. This intelligence consists of an arIle from Le Poys, o Paris, the organ oiouis Napoleon, edited by the man whovrites the emperor's pamphlets, foleshowing his role in the political drama oEurope, and who has without doubt wrih the article to which we refer, foreshaddng the part his master is about soon to P on this continent in favor of the south coniederacy; also a telegraphic dispatcfrom Washington an nouncing that Id Lyons, the British Minister to the Uted States, has com municated to our eernment the determi nation of Englandbt to acknowledge a paper blockade, buonly such as, IS actual and eifectual.
 Now, as it wou be utterly out of the power of our govement, if its naval force were ten times as Feat as It IS, to render a Ulockdut Oi tIlt puoaHu hiiitS VI CoaAt from North Caroh to the Rio Grande actual and efectua the announcement of the British govement amounts to the fact that declaram of a blockade on the part of the new adnistration can only be a mere Jurtum fulm of no practical value, and which cannote carried out without going to war wi England and other European powers 10 are agreed upon the public law of blocHe, and will not suffer their commerce toe interrupted in viola tion of that law.
 This intelligence; only confirmatory of that which we ha' already published IS to the policy of theritish government and British statesmen. Lord Palmerston, in a speech which oureaders will recollect having read in olcolumns, indicated in very distinct termthat the separation of the cotton. States pm the North must be peaceable. Lord bugham, as ia friend of human improvent," though leader of the abolitionistsleclared strongly, in a letter which we Ablished. in favor of "peace, comprore and concession y And Mr. Bright, MP, a statesman repre- senting the commeial and popular inter ests of the countryaid in speech at Birm- ingham on the 22of January: "Thele are clouds-clouds pacularly in the West which promises areat change of clrcum- stances, and I belre that every thought ful man at this mnent is deeply anxious as to the future; the question is passing from mouth to m,th, how long will the Chancellor of thExchequer be able to raise seventy mibns per annum on the industry of the c0try?'
 The Torento Zder, the organ of the Canadian governent, stated about the same time, on "r highest authority, y that the home goynment would recognize the independence the southern States; that it would not rmit its commerce to be interfered with byar between the North and the South; anthat 1t was Tn tavo' of a peaceabe settloent in the event of a final separation ofle states. The Lonion Times, after asseng that |" If southern confederacy be fined and take its place among the powerof the earth, it woild become, in fact ,the real United States, while the North puld be only the rum" goes on to "earstly pray that, in the event of the Unh not surviving the tn- rible trial througMhich 1t was passing, the separation mint be an amcable one" It assigns for its encst prayer this reasn: "Civil war, in allourishing country ad among kindre, people, can never e contemplated wtout horror by natln like ours, and W tlust that neither te voilence of the poole nor the weakness f their leaders wllling this calamity the American Umn" This reason ws only intended to orrate on us as 1t IS wd calculated do; bt the true British reasa is that a war void be destructive to te commercial and manufacturing interests ! England, and. penaps result in nsu- rection and revoltion in that countr, seeing that five miions of the populata are directly depenhg on the cotton plat to keep body an soul together. Te London Chronicle f the 18th of Januar gave the real soluion to English polio when 1t said:-" he question is, in fac little short of If and death. Ruin { merchants and mllowners, and starvatia to the rest of the poulation, hang immec- ately in the balane. One years faille in the American crp, or postponement i the American supfy, produce calamats worse than any war or famine with modern experienced To the same eft is the language of Lord Palmerstos organ, the LondonPost of January 21:
 England is nov threatened with grt danger in two forrs-the one immediai, the other not very istant-and that dang concerns not only he national prosperit, but the very existnce of something lie five millions of tn population. The fit form is that, in the existing state # things in the southern States of Non American, civil war or servile insurrectn may prevent the otton crop being sownn March or gatherM in September. 1e second is, that S soon as the southn confederacy has consolidated itself 1t y revive the slave tade, and thereby thry difficulties in the way of our obtaing cotton from it as before.
 The second Of tlese dangers has alreay beer wisely removed by the southern ct federacy. The first depends on the l. minstratcn of the northern confedela :; and if Mr. Lincoln be able to carry what he announces in his inaugural, Q danger is imminant; for his policy ny lead to such bloody collision as would r,- der a general war between the two conf- eracies ienvitable. In that event Engld will undoubtedly quarrel with the northn confederacy. In another article, unu date of January 3Oth. the London Ia says, that in the contingency of civil VI in the United States "the cotton tr;e would be paralyzed and the sword abrcd and terror within would tell with equay disastrous effects in | ancashire as in Sofl Carolina; and England, therefore indepeii, ently of all higher considerations, hasa i- ish motive in preserving the peace." Hee, the London Heyold of the 5th of Febr,ry anticipating the official news which we i've just received from Washington, says:
 "Thc United States, so long as ey cohered, felt strong enough to stand aoi from the public law of Europe; but he secession movement, besides opening a
