IMPORTANT DECLARATIONS Ey TIE BEITIsH GOVERN
NEST As TO AMERICAN AFFAIEs-Lord John Russell
IN the House % Commons made an important state
meut on American affairs. AS TO the Federal Govern
Ment committing au infringement on international
Jaw by collecting duties from foreign ships before
breaking bulk The law officers Of the Crown said
so much depended ou circumstances, that no definite
instructions have been sent 70 cruisers. The British
Government believed that such collection Is imprac-
ucau.r, ami that "a blockade Will only be recognized
when effective, aud regarding letters u marque,
Lord John Russell said i; Is the opinion Of the Gov
eminent that the Southern Couieieracy must be re-
coguiz,I as Leligereuts.
II the house gf Commons, Mr.. Ewsrd asked
whether, seeing the possibility Of Priyateerung being
permitted and encouraged by the Southern Con:ed-
ertcy, the American Government had sufficient ma
val force IN the Gulf Jt Mexico for the protection u
British property in American ships; and If priyateers,
sailing under ;he flag Of an uurccognizel power,
would be deal, with A. pirates.
Lord John Russell said that Her Aajesty's Gov
erumeut had directed that q naval force Tor the pro-
lection Of British shipping be sent 10 the coast Of
America. The Government had received accounts Of
the progress OF the war in the States of America.
The Government heard the other day that the South
eru Coniederacy had issued letters Of marquee, and
that IL was intended by the United States Govern
meut that there should be "a blockade Of AL the South
eru ports. There were some points Of law in these
questions, and they had been referred 10 the law
officers Of the Crown for their opinion III order to
guide them IN their Instructions 20 Her MajestS's
Minister ia America, and the Commandant Of the
Naval squadron. The Government has felt that il
was their duty TO use every possible measure 70 avoid
taking part IN this llmeutabie contest. Nothing but
the important duty Of protecting British interests in
case they are attacked j~ustides the Government in
interfering at all. We have not been involved in any
way in that contest, by any act or by giving advice,
and, for Gods sake, let Us, II possible, keep out Of il.
The London Times says that the excitement OF the
Northern and Southern sections Of America mas had
no parallel since the era Of the French revolution.
ITALY.-Large bodies of Italian troops had EN-
parked from Genoa for Southern Italy, and 5000
had reached Naples. The official journal of Rome
denies that Sardinia has made conciliatory proposals
to Rome.
