C0NEEDEi;aTE COTTOS.
Cola Comfort for English Holders OF Con-
tederate Gotten Bonds.

NEW York, January 1.-The London
Telegraph says editoralrv: We feel no
surprise at the announcement from Wash
ington that the British and American com
mission has declined to admit the liability
OF tie United States for debts contracted
by the cOutederates. This decision. of
course, shuts out the claims advanced by
the unfortunate holders of confederate cot
ton bonds. who have 50 long agitated for
something like recognition of the loan
Nothing else was to be expected. 1t does
not at all matter whether the bondholders
or the committee were right in the suspi-
cions which they expressed to Lord Gran
Vile. that the rejection of their demands was
a prcarranged, forcgOne conclusion. The
simple truth had better be frankly adj
united at once. 1t was absurd to sup
pose that the Americans would ever adj
NIT such claim. We have only to pun
ourselves III their position, and suppose an
analogous ease. Il Fcn!an instruction
occurred in ireland, and managed to main
tain itself largely through the pccuuiarv
aid contributed by American sylupatAizers.
and If on the suppression of the revolt
those citizens of the United States who
had lent money to its ringlcaders asked us
70 reimburse the amount, We should re
ccive the application in a way that mere
contempt would hardly expressive
should no doubt decline to discues the
matter
