federates. The Morning Post denounces in
bitter terms, the proclamation Of Butler IN re-

that the government is bound to recall and
court martial him It says such an act as this,
if not promptly aisavowed, Will soon turn the
scale finally and decisively in favor Of the cause

LATEST The Paris Patrie gives rumor Of
an approaching negotiation TOR joint offer Of
France and England to act as a mediator IN
American affairs
The London Times editorialy approves Of
the plan Of mediation, and says that Europe
ought not to look calmly on the impending
struggle and if the offer Of mediation be de-
layed, the more important question, that OF
negotiation with the Southern Confederacy
may have to be considered
The Iimes' advocacy Of a mediation had
no effect whatever upon the Liverpool cotton

Il am further informed that, in published

had committed outrages beyond the pale Of
civilized warfare, and whom Gen. Price had
refused to exchange as prisoners OF war,
