LIVERPOOL, Nov. l5.-Ihc London
Eee,uny Herald bitterly Jenounces the
non-intcrvention policy Of the British
Government, and says that the language
OF Lord John Russcll's despatch, mocks
the hopes and insults the memory of half
a million of starving English laboring
men.
The Herald then charges the British
Cabinet with abject patience and das-
tardly submission in hopes TO retain the
parliamentary support of the Bright
Golden party.
The Duly Nems thinks that LordRus-
sells answer is the best that could have
been made without entering unnecessa-
rily upan decision OF the merits of the
case and reloices at having escaped from
entangllng diplomatic associations with
France.

PANS, Oct. 80 Europe watches with
painful interest the struggle which has
been raging more than a year upon the
American continent. The hostilitcs have
provoked sacrifices certainly Of a nature
to inspire the highest idea Of the per
severcnce and energy OF the two popu.a-
tons, but the spectacle which does 50
much honor to their courage is only
given at the price Of numbercss calami-
