Our latest English papers give us the following
summary Of intelligence:
LORD PALMERsToS ON THE AMERICA AN WAR.
Lord Pamerston had been addressing his eonstitu.
ents at Iverton on the general policy of his Govern
ment. In the course Of his remarks he spoke as
follows the American war:
Then there was the American civil war There
is much difference OF opinion to the merits Of the
contending parties. Some are for the North on the
ground of their hatred of slavery Some are for the
south, on the ground Of their love Of freedom and
independence. We might have been involved one
way or the other II We had listened to many OF those
who urged different courses ofaeton. Weniight have
been involved III the quarrel; but believe the coi-
try Is glad we have abstained from following that
course. Cheers. Wocould have had nothing TO gain
and We should only have added thousands Of our
own SONS to the hecatomb of victims which that ca
lamt0us, bloody and siaughtering war hrs sacrificed
Cheers. We may hope that time and reflection -
aud recent aivices from America show some favor
able sympto,ns-snd the fact of the immense losses
which have been sustained and the slight hopes
cess which appear on the part OF the North may
rant the hope that many months will not eapse before
some progress will be made towards healing that
tremendous breach which now exists. Cheers !
But of this am convinced, that il we had yielded
to those who, from the purest motives and from u
sincere Conviction urged to interfere to otferour
mediation, and to endeayor to reconcile the parties
before their differences ripe tor adjustment,
should not only have failed in accomplishing that
between that country and this and have rendered
the future establishment of good relations between
Us and themselves less easy and more difficult
hear, hear therefore, think that neutrality
IS night. L am sure that it is appreciated by the
country at large" Cheers.
kE@LAsn's DAseRa fEoM REUNITED AMERICA.
From the London Herald, August a.
BY so-callcd neutrality We have
earned the jealous hatred of both sections of the
hate Union The reports that have reached as
to the proposals OF Niagara dipomatists suggest to
ls the alarming thought that in the next American
war we1ay be called upoD whether wish il not,
to play a prominent part. The negligent apathy OF
statesmen has let slip the opportunity of securing
the gratitude and friendship of the Southern people
Ii an alliance for the conquest of Canada should be
insisted upon by the North as one of the conditions
OF peace We can hardly presume to blame the South
Tor acquiescing i'll the bargain IF we in Europe
nave withheld the right hand of fellowship we can
not wonder that should agree to an alliance ofen-
lye and defensive with its late enemy in the West
We shall have but ourselves to thank for it, if we
should lind ourselves helpless on sudden, i'll the
presence OF powerful conspiracy, to extend the do
nlnlon Of a rival empire the whole vast CONT
nent between the lakes and the pole.
THE POSITION OF THE BELLI0EEESTs AND ISSUES
OF THE CONTEST.
From the London Times, August q
On all points the prestunptions
which onoeinspirited the North have now expired
The south, on the other hand, has lost but sugl.
hope. The Contelerates commenced the struggle
Will tile JlaC would hot endure the
loss uf Its cotton supplies, and that either the block
AIDE would be raised iii the interest of our manutac-
tufelS, OF that disastrous to trade would be
terminated BY European intervention In this ex-
pectatIou they Were deceived, but they confronted
the disappointment with unabated resolution, ana
determined to fight t It war out themselves. This
they have done and now, III the fourth wear of the
contest they lind themselves with armies capable of
meeting any armies VI their enemy, with good credit
and an established reputation. They obtain what
they want in spite OF the blockade they living
under well-organi2ei government; and if they
escape disaster III Georgia, the may fairly say that
the fourth campaign o! the war leaves them III Il
better position than ever.
Meantime the North is in difficulties about the re-
iniorcement Of its armies, and is approaching the
crisis of a Presidential election, There is chance
for the SouthpeIiiaps the best yet otfered--in the
conflict of opinions which the political struggle Will
evoke; but 1t would be vain to speculate the
tual results either of the election the campaign.
As regards the final iss,le of the war, consider
the prospects Uf the Contlerates to he good as
ever; but the FuIelals have shown such nsensi-
bllty to defeat, and such an intiexbe tenaoity oi
purpose that We cannot anticipate any early teri-
nation Of the strife Perhaps the success of She
man in Georgia, or of Farragut ut Mobile, might
counteract the disappointment produced by the fail
OF Grant III Virginia, and more inspire the
FedeIas with expectations of absolute success bat
III Europe we can only employ the lessons Of this
eventful campaign TO confirm convictions of the
hopeiessness Of the and the necessity of !
speedy peace.
