New YORK. May S.-A Washington
special dispatch SAYS: The Union feeling
in the interior of North Carolina is not of
an earnest kind that can be relied on.
Prominent citizens admit their defeat, but
still maintain logged adherence to the
State rights theory. In Carteret, Greene
and Wayne counties, Union meetings were
held. The resolutions declare they will
aid the United States Government in the
restoration of law and order throughout
the State.
A Raleigh letter says JEFF. Davis passed
through Charlotte on April 22d. The
opinion Of loyal citizens is that he will at
tempt TO reach one of the numerous inlets
on the coast where light draft steamer
can enter and bear him and his treasure
from the country.
A correspondent who recently rode
from Sherman's to Sheridan's lines, says
the planters are extensively engaged in
cultivating their lands. There is vast
amount of tobacco on hand. JEFF. Davis
did not leave Johnston's lines till the con-
clusion of Sherman's truce. He was at
Monroe N. c. April 26th.
Change of British Views.
New YORK, May S.-The London Star
thinks recent events have materially alter
ed the state of things from what it was
when England recognized the rebels as
belligerents, and says JEFF. Davis, with his
at Danville. is different per-
son. in view of international law, from
JEFF. Davis at Richmond, backed by Lees
army. The United States have an I'M
questionable right to dispute the validity
of the commission of Davis. and to de-
mand that wa, vessels of the United States
shall not be subjected to vexatious re-
straints. The Star mentions the necessity
Of the speedy resumption of trade between
England at the South, and says they can
not, with propriety. make representation
10 the American Government in this re-
>pect. as long as they recognize the rebels
as belligerents.
How the News Of the ABSuoSlnatton
was received in England.
The London principal journals alike de-
scribe the intense excitement which the
latest news created and alike gave utter
ance TO warm eulogium upon President
Lincoln and bitter denunciations of the
The Paris and continental journals con-
tain articles on the subject.
The scene on Change at Liverpool will
not soon be forgotten. The excitement
has seldom if ever been exceeded. Late
IN the day a request was sent TO the Mayor
to call a public meeting 20 express the
.orrow and indignation of the people.
Hundreds signed it. The Mayor issued a
for meeting in st. Georges
Hall on the afternoon Of April 9th. to be
adjourned to the evening of the same day,
10 that the working classes might likewise
have an opportunity of attending. The
tlags on the hall and other buildings, and
the shipping. at Liverpool, were at half
mast. The Liverpool Post, of April 9th,
is printed with columns in mourning.
The Times SAYS: Nothing in political
history can be remembered that has ever
drawn forth a more unanimous feeling
than this news. Personally, President
Lincoln enjoyed the kind regards of every
one in England. The extent TO which his
influence was exerted in upholding AMIGA
Bile relations between England and the
United States is shown by fall Of unusual
severity in all classes of securities. The
Times, editorially, says: The news will
be received throughout Europe with sor-
row as sincere and profound as it awoke
even in the United States.
The Daily News says: Lincoln has not
fallen in the flush of triumph, for no
thought of triumph was in that honest,
humble heart. HIS task was accomplished.
The battle IF his life was won. In all
time to come. among all who think Of
more than rank. the name Of
Abraham Lincoln will be held in rever-
ence and love.
The Star paws warm tribute to Lin
coin, eulogizes his steadfast policy Of
peace, in spite of all provocation toward
England, and also expresses great conf
dence that the North, even in the hour of
its iust indignation, will demean itself
with the magnanimity and clemency which
have thus far attended its triumphs.
. The Telegraph says: From vulgar cor
ruption, from factious hatred. from mean
est jealousy and uncharitableness, this
great ruler was wholly free. At last came
what seemed to be the fruition of his Ia.
bors and the reward of his patience and
courage. He entered Richmond as q con-
ouerer, but he launched no decree of pro-
scription against the South, for the fight
appeared to him be over. and it was not in
his large heart to bear malice against q
beaten foe.
Much uneasiness was evinced concern
ing the fact that Andrew Johnson would
take his place, and unfavorable deduc-
tons were drawn from his conduct at the
at Washington, and also
from the tenor of his various speeches.
The Daily News says it has made care
full inquiries, and is assured, on reliable
authority, that the incidents SO regretable
which occurred at the installation OF the
Vice President cannot. without injustice,
be taken to represent Johnson's charac-
ter.
The news Of the assassination was pub
lished throughout England, April 26th.
The sympathizers with the South evinced
as much of feeling of indignation as the
warmest friends of the North. It was the
all-absorbing topic Of conversation, and
caused an almost entire suspension Of
