The following summary of news was
sent out BY the City Of Baltimore, which
left Liverpool On the 29d, and Queens
town, 23d Of January:
The question Of European Intervention
in the civil war in America is being much
more freely canvassed, the proceedings at
Charleston for the alleged general inefi-
cheney Of the blockade being the excuses
put forth for such step.
The text of Earl Russell's letter to the
Liverpool Shipowners' Association had
been published. The letter says that the
British Government notified Lord Lyons,
when the measure was preparing, that
such plan as the stone blockade would
seem to imply despair Of the restoration
OF the Union-the professed object OF the
WARRIOR it never could be the wish of the
United States Government to destroy cit
les from which their own country was to
derive portion Of it, riches. Such q
plan could only be adopted - measure
OF revenge and as an irremediable injury
against an enemy. Lord Lyons was
further told that even as sc!iene OF en-
Uttered and sang1inary war, such meas
ure could not be justi6able. 1t would be
blot against the commerce of all nations
and against the free intercourse of the
Southern States with the civilized world
Lord Lyons was desired to speak in this
sense to Mr.. Seward, who, It was hoped.
would disayow the illegal project Now,
however, says the letter, that the project
seems to have been carried into effect
at Charleston, Lord Lyons will be in
structed to make no further represent
tations to Mr.. Seward with i view to-
prevent similar acts OF destruction at othe,
ports. Il was statsd that the French
Minister at Washington had been furnish
ed with the formal disapprobation Of the
French Government Ut the conduct of the
United States Government in choking up
Charleston harbor with stone, and that he
would join Lord Lyons in protesting
against the act.
The London Times continues its denun-
Citations 81 the stone blockade, aud asserts
that the project Of the British Govern
ment against Bologne in 1904, was far
different thing, having been designed to
shut in hostile feet.
The London Morning Pest saws that
matters in America are evidently approach
ing situation in which the de ftscto row
ernment Of the South may claim consider
alton in Europe. Some journals say that
il, in spite Of the remonstranees against il,
other Southern ports are served like
Charleston. England and France win have
nothing left for them TO do but to inter-.
