NIB. RoEBUoK wITHDRAws HIS MOTION
TO RECOGNIZE THE SOUTH.
3 In the House of Commons on the even
ing of the 18th, Mr.sRoebuck rose and
said +: Sir, [ rise for the purpose of moving
that the order be read for the purpose Of
its being discharged Hear, hear. I
brought forward that motion under the
feeling that I was about to invite the
House to, take step which would have
the effect of putting an end to the horrible
carnage now going on in America, and
which would also serve the commercial
interests Of Great Britain. For so doing
l have incurred much obloquy--an oblo-
guy that has come from a very noisy, if
not very wise, party. daughter II
| must say that my present determi-
nation has not been, influenced there
by. The noble lord at the head of the
government had said that the continue
ance Of this debate was an impediment in
his way to the good government Of the
country. Hear, hear. have paid re-
spect to the noble lords wishes, and [
have likewise induced my honorable friend
(Mr. Lindsay to forego his feelings in the
matter. '. ........ .... r.'-'.... r.
When the lord sat down on Friday last,
my honorable friend and myself were per
fectly, or at least, very nearly, satisfied
with what bad been stated and if moth
ing more had been said there the matter
would have ended; but official arrogance
is a plant Of portentously rapid growth
loud laughter --apd the Under Secreta-
ry for Foreign Affairs thought fit to bring
charge against my honorable friend, to
which he believed his honor and his feel
ings called for an answer. But, sir, a
little cool reflection has taught him that
lnsinuations of the kind coming from such
quarter may not be regarded. Loud
cries OF oh, oh, and hear, hear.7 ID
1t has been stated that the time has not
yet come for the consideration of the
question and | have yielded to the sug-
gestion. But let the noble lord bear in
mind that there are two dangers before
him which he will have to meet, and
which England will have to meet /; and
one is the possibility of reconstruction
OF the Union upon Southern basis, and
the other is the acknowledgment of the
Contederated South by the Emperor of
the French alone. ..-, g~ I..,..,
These, are two great dangers for Eng
land-[ cries Of no, and hear, hear. 4 The
noble lord will, / have no doubt, with his !
long experience, fully justify the conf
dence of the people ID his consideration
OF these two great questions. [ leave
them, sir, without hesitation in hishands,
though ! must say my opinions are entire
ly against the. withdrawal of them from
public consideration at the present time. |
England and England's interest demand \
the decision Of this House, and it is only
under feeling of great respect for the
NOBLE lord that now withdraw the mo-
ton, [ Hear, hear.1 -.ar, ,t. ..
Mr.. Lindsay followed with an account
of his interview with the French Empe.
ror, and endeayored to vindicate himself|
from 'rl,i the charge of being San amateur di-,
plomatist." >, . I'll. |
Viscount Palmsrston followed, review
ed the personal question in regard to the
volunteer mission of Reebuck and Lind
say as ambassadors in behalf of the rebels
which be pronounced irregular, and that
the British government preferred to get
its communications from foreign powers
through its accredited ministers and ,diplo-
matte agents. ~, ;. ,;,,'
The O'Donoghue protested against Roe
bucks bitter hostility to the North. He
believed that Roebuck and his friends
were actuated by the belief that the de-
struction Of the Union would be of great
advantage to England. He should con-
slider 1t the greatest calamity to the world.
The london Times, editorially, shows
the inexpediedcy Of Roebuck's motion,
contending that the present time is inop-
perfume for interference. s...
An important debate took place in the
House Of Lords on Polish affairs, Lords
Russell and Derby both agreed that it was
not e case for armed intervention, and
England could DO nothing further than
submit proposals, which she had done.
Hord Org Derby deprecated even diplomatic
Interference. 4 lsas. y t 3
'Ii This i debate was considered by the. Lon
don journals as decisive Of the, policy
which England would pursue. ss
