The task o. intervening even in the most friendly way
between tho two hostile communities in America is
OF so much decacy that tho country will gladly leave the
matter n the hands Of the government to choose such
opportunity aud modo Of action may think pro-
nor The statements OF Lord Pamerston and Lord Rus
sell last night to the effect that the British govern
mcnt at least has intention Of Offering med at
present and that no proposals ON tho subject have been
mado by the French Emperor.
