NEW YORK, October 24.-The Times
Washington special says in regard tO
our affairs with England, growing out
of the depredations, of the war, Of the
privateers Alabama and Shenandoah:
Mr.. Adams, our minister to the Court
of Saint James, was some time since
instructed to make q peremptory de.
mand for indemnity for loss sustained
by our commercial interests. To this
demand, Mr.. Adams received an eyasivs
reply. He was also instructed to re-
port the demand. He did so, but no
definite response has been received
The tone of the English newspapers
have recently received, indicates that
these renewed and persistent demands
have not been without effect. The
British government is now putting out
feelers in their various organs, showing
their disposition in the matter. From
these it appears that they are willing
to submit the claims to arbitration OF
to board of national cOmm's. Our
government will accept no arrange
ment of the sort, but will insist ON a
prompt and full payment of claims.
This is our ultimatum, as contained i'll
the instructions under which Mr.. Ad-
ans is now acting.
The Times Washington special says
The attitude of the Government towards
Mexico, and the condition of affairs in
that country, as previously communica-
ted to you, is fully confirmed. The
French Government; have asked for q
delay Of the departure of the first in
stallment of their troops till the first OF
January, when they promise that If
this time is granted, it will waive the
time allowed for the removal of the re-
manning detachments and remove all at
one time. To this our Government has
not assented, but insists that the
withdrawal shall commence at once and
progress as vigorously as possible. In
case of delay, our Government will sus-
tain the Juarez Government, and in
consideration of services rendered, Low
er California and a portion of Sinalo
and Chiahuahua will he coded to the
United States.
1t is no part of any agreement yet
made that the United States is to guar
antee the claims of France against Mex
leo, though such a course may yet ap-
pear expedient and proper, in which
case the government of this country will
not hesitate to take the responsibility.
The main point sought is tn enforce the
Monroe doctrine by removing European
intervention from Mexico.
A Times Washington special says ::
Governor Swami, of Maryland, had q
long interview with the President this
morning, continuing up to the moment
of the meeting of the Cabinet. He then
withdrew until the Cabinet had adj
jOurned, at which time the interview
was renewed. The subject of the inter
view was the threatening state of affairs
in Maryland. The subject was also dis
cussed in the Cabinet, and there is the
best authority for saying that the Cabi-
net unanimously agree as to the course
of the government under the decision
in the DOtt case. 1t is acknowledged
that the general government is bound
TO protect the constituted authorities of
any or all the States against domestic
insuTrection, or any other form of re-
sistance 10 their authority. Governor
Swann's proclamation is fully approved
by the President.
