No doubt there existed here some who willingly

yours. And irritated rs they frequently were by
having the success Of American institutions held up
to them as reproach. 10 is not surprising that they

Afordipg, as the language of your press continued
to do abundant materials for generating it, this hos

anyone may verify by referring to the files of our
papers in NewYor that tor months after the COM
mencement of your troubles, the unanimous SYM
pathies Of the English with the North were ex-
pressed in the most unqualified manner. 1t Is a
fact that my own originally warm interest in the
success of the North was gradually cooled by the
groundless suspicious and undeserved reproaches
with which you responded to our good

what changed me fro y an ardent sympathizer into
a lukewaTm sympa iizer, changed Others from
friends into enemies. the inference is one which
scarcely admits of question. The conclusion is,
think, inevitable. that but for the revolution of
feeling brought about by your behavior to u.s. there
would never have been prompted any of those pri-
vate acts of aid to the Confederates of which you
complain, nor would there have happened that
gross official negligence which -llowed that aid TO
