ENGLAND AND THE UNITED STATEs.-The Lon
don correspondent Of the Philadelphia Inq,ti-
rer writes:
"When it WAS known that Mr.. Reyerdy
Johnson Alabama treaty had been so unani-
mously rejected ii was felt that some further
demand was likely TO be made upon this Go
yerument, but | am sure no one dreamed for
a moment how extensive that demand would
be. The enormous character it has now as
sumcd has taken nearly every ones breath
away, and the whole community is still pom
dcrug over the magnificent combinations of
figures contained in Mr. Summers speech.
This speech is under All the circums tances,
accepted as representing the views and inten-
tons of the United States Government, and
il is fully expected that Mr.. Motley will come
here instructed 10 make III form the demands
Implied by its language. The Immediate ef
feet upon the public mind has been of course,
exactly what might have been expected.
THE view taken OF the subject is this:
That the new demand is TO be, first a public
humble apology on the part OF this country,
through its Government, for its erroneous
course during the recent war and secondly,
the plyment OF something like four hundred
millions sterling in the shape of damages. To
this the unanimous voice OF the people gives
but one rGply-TiZ, that neither proposition
can or shall be entertained for 4 moment /
have before me al this moment the articles on
the subject from all the leading British jour
nails, friendly and unfricndly TO the United
States, and numerous private letters from
English friends of both those characters, and
they all breathe the same spirit. They are
cOuched i'll various tones OF Indignation, re-
greet and resen tmcnt; but they all eyince the
same determination TO resist both of these de-
mands, if need be, TO the very DEATH
