The agriculturai States in general
are truly neutral. me only leeilng
is detcstation oil war IN general, ana
q determination not TO pc dragged

Tho South is still bitterly an-
tagonistic to the East, or North, as
they term it, They arc fanatically
opposed to the Morgan interests and
tho effect OF the blockade upon cot
ton, in spite Of the Statistics" which
VIC have published through wall
street channels has made them eN-
iremely hostile toward England
Tho situation may be summed UP
finally by saying taat with the eN-
ccpticn of the individuals who have
been. and are being, Influenced by
social, racial or financial considera-
tions, the country is either against us
altogether, or would become so in the
event Of active decision being neces-
saryI Such feeling as is for us is
mostly sentimental and would dis
appear if it were a question OF war
The press campaign on which so
much money has been spent, must
therefore, be considered to have
failed. Ii has not therefore been
useless; on the contrary. it has been
invaluable as permitting Washington
To claim that nublic sentiment as
shown oy tho newspapers was vehcm-
emily on our side and thus 10 defy
the win Of the people, who have by
this means bccn made to appear in
articulate. Il must mt therefore be
supposed that Washington itself is
under any misapprchcnsion; the
party bosses arc well aware Of the
facts Of the situation, and their
privato reports ere conclusive. (See
Schedules A 23-43, lnclusive.) Your
Exccllency has therefore every
reason to fear the most complete
yolte-facc on the part Of Washington
The various notes TO Germany, to
Austria and TO H. b. NJ. Government
may he regarded as electicnecring
addresses and no more
Tae publication Of The Won Papcn
correspondence was distinctly unfor-
tunatc. Even so friendly paper as
the SnringGcld Republican took us to
task for our treatment OF the Cap
tain. forgctful Of the fact that the
Germans arc not gentlemen, but
pirates and deserve to be treated as
such. The letter by Won Slal on the
Ambassador has made the position
DC the latter more solid with Che M

! believe until the publication Of this
lcttor that there was a real division
Of opinion between the German pros
pagandists. and that The atrocious
propaganda OF Dr. Dcrnburg was car
riad on in spite OF the protests Of the
Ambassador. The entire publication
I strikes me as a boomerang
TOO certain Of our hold on the Ad-
ministrafion. we have been somewhat
noglectful OF Congress. / suggest
that tho mail Of the Senator's eG-
pccially Of those who favor an om-
bargo on arms be carefully super
yised. While the ammunition in
ferests arc strong we must not un-
derestimate the approach OF the cleo
tjons The problem Of the "hyphen"
also is more sinister than ever. The
President, while still with US, IS deep
! lv offended because OF tho attacks on
4 him in the British press. Especially
the poster "are you too proud to

not protested against tho German
