we may safely congratulate ourselves that there Is
no Government, thai there Is no nation with whom
we have political or commercial Intercourse with
whom we are not upon terms Of tho mott satisfac

On the Slsl. Lord Paimerston attended soiree oi
the working classes IN the Clty Hall OF Glasgow
and was presented with an address. In the cOurr,
Of his speech be alluded as follows to American
affairs:
alt will be our anxious desire to pursue q course
calculated TO preserve the and welfare Of the
country, and We have done 50 in regard 10 the Ia
mentable events passing among our kintmen on the
North American continent, and In spite Of great In.
vitstous from each Of the two parties To take
sctiye part in the contest than we have thougbt it
our duty and for the national interests that should
take. Loud cheers. There are In the United
Kingdom, as there are In America, Union and Con-
federae advocates.
There are some who wish euoce.s to the North
there others who desire 10 see the separation OF
the South from the North. II s not ftting or be-
coming that the British nation, rs nation, should
take part III that contest. Ii s laInentable event
In the history Of mankind and depend upon !! that,
though war in any circumstances is great stetion

civil war is she most to be deI lored for there
you have fighting brother egainss brother, relation
ranged against relation.
"You have o contest scattered over wide sur.
face Of country and you have Oesolstion marking tie
tracks Of each cOntending army perhaps greater
than would be inflicted BY the invasion Of for
tign force. We lament that state Of things We
should be most happy IL II had been ! the power Of
this country by amclble in,erpoeiton TO reconcile
those couflctiDg parties; but we felt and we know
that any attempts of that kind in the existing state
of things would bave an effect the very revere OF
that which was intended. IL would not accomplish
ehe purpose In view and might render It CiBicul, If
not impossible if different state Of things should
arise, that the friendly c0unsels Of England could
then be listened TO with success. lCbeers
4" / am persuaded that you, gentlemen, and the rect
Of the people Of England, think thai we acted rightly
in taking that decbiop. That war bss, indeed, IN.
6icted deep suberings and privations upon large
portion of the working classes OF this countryess,
perhaps, in point Of interest here in Glasgow THAI in
Manchester and other towns in the manufacturing
districts, but even bere it mnst have been grevously
felt, and mauy pereOns might have thought We, by
sakiDg part IN the contest and declaring ourselves
Tor oUe Side the other, might have put an end TO
that priyatiOn and terminated those suiieiings. But
tbst would have been a Ehort-sighted yiew, and de-
pend upOn it, if We bad taken that course we sho1ld
have failed in our object, and increased, instead Of
diminishing, the suferngs which We intended to al
ltvi6te."
The Morning Post Gays: "The year is commenc-
ing prosperous for the Confederate cause both at
home and abroad. Before il closes we sincerely
hope the gallant struggle, in which the Southern
e'ses have engaged IN yiudcation Of their independ
ence, nav bo crowned with complete success"
