the American question.
Great Britain deputations from religious
denominations, including the Congregational
Union, the Baptist Union and the Baptist
Board, had an interview on the 9th with
Earl Russell on the subject of the threatened
war with America.
The English papers continue to TEEN with
articles on the American question. These are
mostly confined TO speculations. As the
nearest precedent yet quoted to the Trent
case, the Times draws attention to the affair
Of the Dutch brig Hendrick and Ali1a, cap
tured by the British in l777, while she had
on board i've officers for the American army,
The ship and officers were released by the
British Admiralty. The judge ruling that
although the officers frankly admitted their
positions, yet as they were passengers on a
neutral ship which sailed from one neutral
port to another neutral port, the proximate
destination of the passengers were entitled
to be regarded as an innocent destination,
and they were consequently set at liberty.
The Times claims that this case plainly es-
tablished that between one neutral port and
another all persons and things whatever may
be legally carried.
The London Daily News, in letter from
Hamburger, gives an account of q meeting
of English merchants there, at which Mr.
Ward, Britishcharge de affairs, read a paper
purporting to be Earl Russelrs note to Lord
Lyons in regard to the Trent affair. This
note is worded with great moderation. It
describes the seizure of Mason and Slidell in
the terms of Capt. Williams report to the
Admiralty. 1t makes no mention OF the
opinion of the law officers of the Crown, of
which so much has been said in the papers,
but simply and explicitly characterizes the
capture of the Commissioners as an infrao-
ton Of the Law of Nations and an Insult to
the English flag.
1t declsirs that the Cabinet at it. James,
considering the cordial and friendly charac-
ter of the relations existing between England
and the United States cannot doubt far an
instant that the Captain Of the San Jacinto
musl have acted without authority from his
Government.
1t then adds that the British Government
feels confident that the Government of the
United States will not hesitate to take the
only step possible under the circumstances
namely: the release of the prisoners, and
making a. the same time suitable reparation
for the insult offered to the British flag.
