York, July 9th.


THE AMERICAN QUESTION.
Great anxiety Was ey1nced among al1 classes
! In Engl0nd for later American advices-those
by the Bohemian having left affairs In m in
decisive state. Much credit WAS accorded to
the Union troops, and the feeling generally
was that they would prove masters OF the
/ situation.
| The London Morning Rst discovers come
parallels between the battle near Gettysburg
and TINT at Antietam Greek, and says: "For
aught We know to the contrary, both NAV
have at the same time marked the commence
ment and termination of a Southern invasion.
The Northern soldiers certainly tight best on
their own soil; for. except on the present oc-
casion and at Antietam, they have never held
their ground with such steadiness when cop
Ing with their Southern antagonists"
The London Telegraph thinks that Gen.
Meade nay be granted larger credit than
any Federal commander has achieved. He
has at blow altered the character of the CON
Aict.
The London Glo6s says that Gen. Meade
1pnght defensive action with steadiness and
Sill, but the victory had yet to be Won.
The London Times reviews the situation of
the two armies. General Meade's movements,
i says, we're probably somewhat more rapid
than tue Contederates expected Il is clear
that the position Of the two armies Is very
critical for each Of them, and that no further
| important movement can take place on either
eide until the issue Is decided one way or the
other The principal struggle Is yet to come,
ard few Will be sangu1ne enough to see in the
results Of the three days fighting anything to
/ Justify the Presidents hopeful anticlpations.
Il these three days fighting have only given
the Coafede1ates time to collect their forces
with some such object, md General Meade Is
heavily outnumbered, the result can hardly
be doubtful. and ii he is once seriously de-
feated, there is absolutely nothing to hinder
General Lee from doing his will IL Pennsyl-
yonia AID Maryland.
Referring to Vicksburg and Port Hudson,
as well US PennsylVania, the Times comes to
the corclnsion TINT although the chances Of
estimated at present theyare heavily against
the FsdeEals. and 4 defeat ut, any one Of the
points In danger would be irremelmb1e.
The London Tines New York correspon.
dent, writing on July s, continues to com.
ment on the remarkable apathy Of New York.
The British Army a.d iya1y Gazette says w
most probably the course of events would be
determined by the result of the battle Of JULY
!, and on 1t would depend whether Washing
ten tell or LIE retired into Virgins, with tbs
quantity OF valuable stores and plumber. Lee
eannot afford to stand still and If he found
Meade too strong for his army to attack
again. he would get away from the sword Of
the Federal militia and volunteers which are
gathering around him.
On the 18th Of July, In the House of Com.
mems. Lord R. Cecil asked the Chancellor Of
the ExcheQuer II he waa prepared to propose
th. grant Of any compensation to Captain |
Blake:y for the loss occasioned to him by the |
detention without cause Of the vessel Gibral- |
tar Gate sumteE,) on suspicion Of being in-
tended for the cause of the Confederate |
States, and whether Government would lay |
OH tic table the depositions or information |
upon which they acted IN the case. The |
noble Lord suited that the loss which Captain |

10000 and $1,000. He also complained |
that Government were eallowing themselves to |
become mere tools iu the hands of mr. Adams
the American Minister
The Chancellor Of the E1chequer said that
persons connected with the Gibralter had ad-
dressed inquiries to government as to whether |
the shipment Of Captain Blakely's guns would
cause the detention Of the vessel, and that
theF had no information whatever that lie had
sustained the injury which the noble Lord ap-
lay, the depositions upon which government
had ncted on the table Of the House. He re-
pudiated the insinuatlon that government had /
been ihauenced By any pressure brought to
bcar uIon them by the American Minister.
