FROM NEW YORK.

Nrw YoRk. July l6.-The Daily News
says the Americans in London met on the
18th OF July TO celebrate the day, but no &C.
account OF the proceedings is given.
The same Journal editorially denounces in
sarcastic terms. the mischieyous malgnity of
the Times for its phsrasaical and ill-timed
lecture TO America in her hour of trouble.
The Morning Star has also denunciation
OF the Times for its outrage on American
sensibiities on the most sacred of all days to
the American people. Ii hopes that Amer
leans will treat the insolence of the un- En-
glish writers with dsdasn. and says the wri.
ter Is not more the enemy of their country.
than the disgrace of his own
The Morning Herald urges that the pros
ecution of the war and the celebration of
the Fourth Of July, constitute as glarng a
case as was ever alleged against civilized na-
ton. and that il professions meant anything
in America the mere reading of the Declar
alton OF Independence should suffice to con-
denim the invasion of the Confederate
States as utterly inexcusable in principle and
erroneous policy.
The Epoca of Madrid says the Spanish
Government has received most satisfactory
communications from its Representative at
Washington, as TO the favorable effect pros
duced upon the L. 5. by the disinterested
policy which Spain has adopted with regard
10 Mexico.
The present relations in the Cabinets at
Madrid and Washington are most cordial.
