AMERICAN DIrLoAATIsT5 IN EUROPE.
The representation Of tic United States at
the European Courts has become, since the
rebellion, matter Of deep importance. In
thc old days Of Southern domination, men
were not unfrcquently sent to Europe, who,
;,y their manners and character, created pre-
jndiees aisa;net the New World, which
still lingcr In circles where pnlish and culture
are regarded as necessary chasactcrfstics Of
a diplomatist. England has been gcncFully
fortunate s1r. Everett, Mr. Lawrence aud
Mr.. Dallas were welcome guests in English
society, and maintained their position with
simplicity and dignity. Mr. Adams
las faiscd the reputation Of IN
American Ambassador even higher. But
in other eourts unsee,nly spectacles
have been occasionally witnessed in
which nm American Minister has figured
with ureuviable conspfcuousness. The
names of Soulc and Webb arc still remem-
bcrcd. The English Liberals then, who look
to the United States with pride and hope,
cannot be uncouccrncd at what is rumorcd
or is done in this particular part Of the
American Administration. Toward Mr..
Adams Of late, many Of Ills English friends
who were wont to see him constantly during
the war, and to imbibe new confidence from
The never ceasing fount which his Exccllency
possessed, have felt themselves placed in
circumstances Of considerable as.!c:s.ey. aa::.!csey
They could not talk with him of Amer
ican politics without speaking freely OF
tie President, and in Mr, Adams
peculiar position, this would have
been opposed to their sense Of what was
scntlc1uanly and right, so most OF them
have stald away. Mr.. Adams doubtless un.
derstands their motives and attributes the
cessation Of theiryieits to tho rightful cause.
Probably the prevalence Of this feeling on
the part Of men whom hc has harmed to re-
lurd, was not without It's effect In suggest
lng to Him his continental journey. How
ever that may be. they rcgurd the separation
as luss. and as not the least Of tho evils
which the Presidential policy has oceas!uncd.
II Is most advisable Tor the principles We
have q! heart, that the American Aulba.sa.
dor In England should be 4 gentleman who
eau hold 4 friendly and sympathetic inter-
course with those Of our writers and public
men wlo best appreciate aud most admire
the country whose interests he represents.
The Paris papers ,are disputiny as IA
whether Ar. Digciow has been recalled, OF
whctler he returned ut his own request
from the Ministry at Psris. Ills private
friends stutc very pointcdly that he las long
been ws=Ain. to return, and that hts superscs
sun is without political Significance. Whcthe,
Gtneial Dix is The man to fairly represent te
tic French Liberals, WHO to q man, are with
