LONDON, June 1.-Mr Motley it is under
stood to-day, addressed letter to Lord Claren-
don, informing him of his arrival in London,
and officially requesting the appointment of
day for the presentation of his credentials. As
the Prince of Wales holds a levee to-day, to-
morrow has been named as the more fitting time
for the ministerial introduction. Mr.. Moran,
the United States Charge d'Affaires, attended
the levee and was presented.
The burden of the newspaper articles pub
lished here to-day on the subject of Mr.. Motley's
arrival is generally to the effect that the writer's
find in his speech in Liverpool an indication of
the spirit of the instructions given to him by
President Grant.
The London Daily NetoS says that it is glad to
be able to conclude from the speech of Mr..
Motley that he has not come without specific in
structions, and that it is satisfactory to find that
on the question of the relations between the
United States and England President Grant
has a policy of Cancellation and peace.
One clear gain likely to result from
Mr.. Motley's presence in London, with def
mite instructions from his Government will
be the removal of difficult question from
the region of unofficial debate and rhetorical
exaggeration into that of business statement
and diplomatic negotiation. The English peo-
pie are content to leave our side of the matter
in the hands of Lord Clarendon, and the country
will accept any plan of settlement which he and
Mr.. Motley may arrange, and should be glad to
be equally sure of its acceptance by the Senate
of the United States.
The London Star publishes a highly compli-
mentary article, in which it says that the cha
racter of Mr.. Motley is in itself sufficient indi-
cation that the United States of America will
treat the pending subject honorably, while the
presence of Mr.. Bright in the English Cabinet,
with Mr. Gladstone at the head OF the Ministry,
constitute an equally sufficient guarantee that
England loves peace, and that determination
to do justice animates the Ministry.
The Telegraph thinks that Mr.. Motley viii for
the present devote himself to the discharge of
the ordinary duties of his office, and that in that
capacity he may consolidate that cordial alliance
which ought to exist between the two countries
1t will be reproach to English politicians and
journals it, for the sake of pandering to popu-
lar prejudice, they throw difficulties in the way
of the mission of goodwill and peace which
Mr.. Motley declares he comes to carry out even
TO the end.
The London Times understands that no new
demand has been addressed to England. Mr.
prospect of controversy, but at the same time
says that the English Government should exa-
NINE any new proposals, and see ii they promise
just and equitable solution. If the neutrality
proclamation is made the subject of grievance
we are bound to listen to the arguments ad-
duced, though it is improbable that any good
purpose would be served by raising such dis
cussion.
The Pail Mall Gazette as usual has n suob-
bish article on the subject, boasting that America
has backed down before British pluck, and that
under these circumstances the arrival of the new
Minister is of small Importance, and the best
result they anticipated from Mr.. Motleys mis-
sion is that his duties will afford him sufficient
leisure to prosecute his historical studies.
Notwithstanding the tone OF the London press,
] have good authority for saying that not one of
the newspapers has received the slightest hint or
indication of Mr.. Motley's Instructions which,
I am assured, will in the end be found thoroughly
dignifed and in firm American tone.
