The change Of tone on the part Of the Lon
don Saturday .Res1eso, hitherto one OF the
strongest advocates Of the secessionists in
England, excites much comment. That jour
nal looks upon the recent Federal victories
as great, II not decisive, and in measure
gives up the cause Of the South as vlftually
The Liverpool Chamber Of Commerce held
its lt.yearly meeting on the Sd. The speak
ers expressed the opinion that the American
var was not far from It's close, including
James Spence, the notorious secession adyo-
cate.

4 proclamation from the same source re.
jec:s every compromise not based on the In-
dependence Ct Poland nnd the boundaries Of
1i72 seye1al insurgent leaders were hung
Adyices are said to have reached Paris from
New York that the Government has definitely
renouEccG CONSUMPTION, and the fact Is at
t1ibuted to tho progress Of pacific ideas in

changed.

The London Times in IN editorial upon
American affairs, as depleted bT the adVice5
By the Great Eastern and Asia, regards the
Federal successes checked, and tho Confed-
crates rs having rallied and offered something
point Of fact the 20 far successful Federa1s are
for the moment checked. Their victories
have been considerable, but they do not seem
to zee the way to follow them up. Such
difficulty Is not likely to be lessened If they
continue to press into the Confederate
country.
The Times Gays that nnacr these circum-
stances, 1t is stroke Of smart policy Of the
New York papers to declare tat the new
draft for 0,00O men Is Intended only for
var with Great Britain, with Gen. Les still
threatening them upon tho Potomac. The
Fcdera1 Government will find enough on their
hands at home. However. they are no doubt
right to resort to any clip trap or violence to
enforce the CONSUMPTION, for 1t is quite eyi-
dent that II they cannot reinforce their
armies, their invasion Of the South must
coDe to O stind.
The Daily Neus looks Upon events In to-
tally different light. The latest news, 1t says,
records number Of additional Federal i'd
yanteges, which show that the Union forces
nre turning to account their recent victories,
by pushing forward at every point Of their
extended line.

France, England and Austria, are fully re-
solved to act In unison In the replies to the
Russian Note. They will not send separate
replies, but collective and identical note.
