Some Journals argue that o definite answer
was not to be expected BY the Europa, and
think the cause Of peace loses nothing by de-
lay; others construe the delay unfavorably.
The Morning Post thinks Il diminishes the
hopes of peace, and that the Washington Gov
ernment will propose compromise, which will
not be for moment entertained. The Times
asks, Why should the declsion be delayed If fa-
vorable for peace, and says the immediate sur
render Of Mason and Slidell would have been
a greater blow to the confederates than VIC
tory on the Potomac, and worth millions to the
Federal exchequer..
Russell, in his correspondence to the London
Times, predicts that the Cabinet ct Washing
ton would refuse to surrender up Mason and
slidell. He also says that victory over the
Federal army has become political necessity,
and that Gen. Mcclellan is being pressed on
all sides to make forward movement d
ward tendency in. war risks. 5s, ,so
The Paris Patrie and Pays say that the gov.
ernment at Washington offered to restore Ma.
son and Slidell on condition that England would
not recognize the Southern Confederacy.
The London Morning Herald says that If the
Slidell and Mason affair is settled, England and
France have an inducement on commercial
grounde, to recognize the well earned indepen-
deuce OF the Confederate States, and unless the
step is manfully taken by the ministers at once
1t is certain to be taken by Parliament on Its
assembling.
The Daily News says that any ecogution of
the Confederate States Ia too abhorrenb to Eng
lish principle to be really subject for appre.
hension.

The priVateer Sumter, on arriving of Cadiz
with the officers and crews Of three Federal
