EarI Rusncu on the EsscLade-DebHTe On
the American QusstiOH la the EreRoh sen
ate, etc.
By the arrival Of the steamship North Ameri-
can, adEices from Liverpool to the 9th ult, and
Londonderry to tie 28th, have been received.
The papers relating 20 the blockade Of our ports
had been laid before the British Parliament.
Among them is q letter from Earl Russell to Lord
Lyons, dated so late as the 10Th ult, declaring
that the fact of SHIPS having successfully run the
blockade was no proof Of its ineficiency. He
argues that a neutral State should exercise great
caution regarding q de JaotO blockade, and ought
not 20 disregard it unless the right of the block
AIDE should he abused. The unemployed labor
ers at Liverpool had made some demonstrations,
but had been pescably dispersed by the police.
We annex some of the details of the news by this
arrival:
DEBATE IN THE FRENCH SENATE
During the recent debate IL tie French Sen
ate on the subject of the reply to the speech from
the throne, the Marquis De Boissy said:
If you DO not give the English time to form
a new coalition you will easily conquer them.
For this you have only to manifest neutrality
with America. You will then see England Of
fering 20 the world the spectacle of 3 people en-
during everything for the sake Of money, and
naughty only with the weak. You know how
humble she has always BEEN with the United
States. Ii she now wishes 60 involve you in the
American struggle, it is to weaken a power Of
which she is afraid. l hope never 20 see France
involved in a war with the United States, tor the
humiliation of that power you'd give England
the supremacy of the seas. ] now ask myself
whether ought te enter on the Italian question.
No, no. Twill not, then, do so, but only re-
greet that the amendment on the evacuation Of
Rome, that has been 30 much talked OF, should
not have been produced in this discussion.
The President-No amendment has been pro-
duced the MOHitcur said that the amendment
you speak of was not pTesen ed.
The Marquis De Boissy-Iregre that it should
have been lost by the way.
81. Bilault, minister with a portfolio-Ths
government is anxious to clearly make known
its sentiments on another point, mooted by the
Marquis de BOissy. When on the other side of
the channel, a member of the English Chambers
not sharing in the feelings of his n~eighbors and
of his colleagues, makes by chance a violent
motion against our country, French feelings
suffer from it, and it is not without emotion that
the echo of such a discussion is heard on this
side of the strait. The reason is that the two
great nations are proud and susceptible on what
touches their honor. Expressions of hatred, ex-
changed from one tribune to the other, are most
Objectionable. As to America, France will never
forget the bonds of kindness which unite her to
the United States. History points out TO her
that war with them is impossible, but that does
not prevent her from being Paines at seeing the
children of the same people destroying each other
and their common country. The government
has recommended and prseticed neutrality. 1t
would not allow events to compromise the pTin-
ciples which it defended and made prevail in
1856 in the Congress of Paris; but it feels The
strongest friendship toward the United States,
and cannot comprehend how any one could wish
to impeI it to a combination which would have
for lis object TO force an entrance into the south
ern ports in order 10 load cotton. On the part
of France such conduct would be madness, aud
England, whose interests are more deeply en-
gagged in the question, and is now on good terms
with the United States, would not venture on a
line Of policy which is not that of France, and
to which the Emperor viii not lend himself.
