Special Dispatch to The N. Y. Tribune.

The Steamer Treat Affair
WASHINGTON MONDAY, Dec. 23-LOrd Lyons held
another conference to-day with Secretary Seward at the
State Department. There is testimony of high author
ity that the conference friendly and satisfactory;
aud it is known that Lord Lyons, who, when bidding
guests to a Christmas dinner last week ntmated that
he necessities of bis position might consran him to
postpone the feast sine die this afternoon several hours
after his visit the State Department. issued cards OF
invitation.
Thus far only the President and Secretary Seward
have handled this delicate affair in the American inter-
est The last regular Cabinet meeting was adjourned
by from Mr.. Lincoln, to avoid the risk OF gen.
eral am premature discussion which might establish
policy.
1t is probable that the action of the State Depart
men has already practically determined the conduct OF
the Government. To morrow a meeting of the Cabinet
will be held which relations with England will be
thoroughly discussed.
Public expectation here has anticipated from MIR.
Lincoln an offer to leave this difficulty to the decision of
umpire to be selected by England herself from one
of the four great European Powers if the opportunity
to make this Offer is allowed him. But if the alterna-
tive of war a surrender of the Rebel Emssares
be forced on u.s. it is expected that the President will
himself all the responsibility, and deliberately
make his CHOICE deciding he decided the proposition
to Fort Sumter, after thoughtful delays. Sur
render in preference war; without doubt the choice
of many influential persons here and it is pressed upon
Mr. Lincoln by both civilians aud military men, high in
position. Hence the persistent assertion by several
our contemporaries, which we again pronounce untrue
that this conclusion to surrender without consdera
ton has already been arrived at. The President will
be governed 10 his decision by this determination &c
| crush out the rebellion
That England is almost beside herself is the tenor
the latest and most Trustworthy private letters. They
say that passion has swept away reason in manner
and to an extent unknown since 1881 and that the
tonal sympathy with the South developed by recent
events is startling. Great credit is given by of the
most trusted of these writers to the British Government
for so long resisting the pressure of Louis Napoleon anc
of The working classes represented by the weekly
journals of the largest circulation among them to repu
date the blockade.
It remains to be seen whether the dispatches to Mr.
Adams which went week after the seizure informing
the British Government that Capt. Wilkes acted with
out specific instruction. will aay the popular excite
ment or abate the Ministerial demands.

go without transportation. He could move without
waiting for the enemy to get ready.

An "Army of the Reserve"

The New York Herald says that the Confederate
States have three hundred and sixty thousand actu
ally under arms. Supposing that this is So how many
of them belong to that force of which military men
speak when they talk about the army of the reserve"
There are some twentythree twentyfour companies

many of these companies have had chance to see SER

The same may be said of the Lncolnite army. They
