NEW YORK HERALD, New York, Friday, September 24, 1847. Mr. Bennett’s Return from Europe. We have been requested by Mr. Bennett to say, that in consequenee of a sudden and dangerous attack of illness in his family on the morning of the departure of the steamship Britannia, he was forced to forego coming in that vessel, and has decided upon remaining abroad till the Sth of October, when he will return, if possible, | t» in the steamship that will leave Liverpool on that day.

Different motives have actu- ated the two governments in their efurts to ar- rive atthese results, although the aim has been the same.

A greater variety of sources of income are required by the government of Great Britain, in consequence of the immense machinery at work, and expenditures annually made for its support, than we require, and we cannot, therefore, expect so Wany concessions, as hive been made onour part. In consequence of this vast difference in the financial position of the two governments, there isa corresponding difference in their ability to reduce their sources of revenue. We give the English government credit for every successful effort it makes to bring abuot free trade, and to remove restric: | tions from commercial intercourse with other nations, but it frequently exhibits a mean, con- | temptible epirit in relation to other matters, in | which other countries have an interest, that is sufficient to offset all its liberality, relative to | measures affecting commercial affairs. The } most recent exhibition of this kind is in relation | to iss foreign postal arrangements. | It 1s well known in this country, that upon the ton at Southampton, in the month of June last, | with a mail for Great Britain on board, the { fae | i Postmaster General of England levied a postage on each letter, of not only the internal rate from | the port to its place of destination, but an addi- tional charge equal to that made upon letters | transported in their own mail steamers; or in | other words, twenty-four cents were charged up- | on every letter received by the Washington, be- sides the internal postage, which, with the charge of twenty-four cents made by our government, in addition to our inte:nal postage, doubled the postage on letters by the Washington, compared | with that charged by the English mail steamers. | Now, it is equally well known that the object in | enforcing such an outrageous, mean, contempti- ble measure as that, was nothing else than to de- stroy, if possible, our foreign mail arrangements, end compel our government to abandon its con- | tracts and leave the monopoly in the hands of the | government of England. The British ministry | know very well that in building lines of mail steamers, we are increasing our steam navy; for every steamship built for our foreign mail | service, must be a war steamer to be appro- priated to the use of the government in the | event of war. In breaking down our fo- reign mail service, they check very materially | the increase in this arm of our naval marine, and | this is a very important matter, so far as England | i eoncerned. She looks with a jaundiced and | jealous eye upon all our movements, and the in- | crease of our naval or commercial marine, is | gall and wormwood to her. She sees the rapid | progress we are making in all the elements of power and greatness, with many misgivings; and there is a deep and bitter hatred towards us, | which will frequently break forth and show it- self, in spite of all the efforts to smother it, and every opportunity is made available to place ob- stacles in our way, and prevent the full and rapid development of our institutions. This is parti- eularly demonstrated in the course pursued by | the British government in relation to our mail | steamships | As soon aa their policy relative to this matter became known, the Post Office agent of our go vernment, and the American Minister in Lon | don, made such representations to the British government, as required an immediate investiga- tion, of the complaints. The reply to this remon- strance was impudent and insulting in the high- | est degree, and the result has been that commu- nicatinos upon the subject have probably ceased, and the most unfortunate state of things will, we fear, grow out of the affair. This isa game that two can play at, and if the Postmaster Genera, of England, who, it is said, acts independent of the government in this matter, but who, we be- lieve, acts in accordance with the views of the ministry, thinks that we will tamely submit to his decision, conveyed in such an insulting shape, he and those he represents will soon find themselves grossly mistaken. We have one end ofthe rope in our hands, and a turn will be given to it that will bring something up all standing. The very measures the British government have taken to control this affair, will deprive them of it much quicker than they imagine. We have made two foreign mail contracts, and as we seldom undertake any thing of this kind bu What we ultimately succeed in, all the opposi, several whe witnessed her departure observed. on board, and consequently was too deep in | son, and which was put up on board that vessel ¢ ; 3 : United States steamer. arrival of the American mail steamship Washing- | | 3d inst., making the passage in a few hours over | With the exception of the invinoible J.

The Brit- ish government can, of course, enforce the pay- ment of any charge it may choose to make upon letters réceived in the ports of the United King- dom from this country by our steamships; we can do the same, and there is very little doubt but that we shall act as speedily and as summari- ly upon this question, asthe circumstances of the case require. Congress convenes in about sixty days, and the first movement of that body will be e regulation of our foreign mail service. We learn that an agent of the British Post Of- fice Department came out by the Britannia, for the purpose of making the necessary arrangement for the transportation of the mails arriving at this port by the line of English steamers about being established between this port and Liverpool, to Canada, and it would be well for the Post Mas- ter General of the United States, to place all the restrictions upon the mail matter received by these steamers, and also by those arriving at Boston, as will correspond with those placed upon mail matter entering British ports in American steamers. The Canada mails have, for some time past, been transported through the States in bulk; it is time to put a stop to this. We have already rendered too much good to England for the evil she has heaped upon us. Forbearance is no longer a virtue, and it is full time to throw aside all those feelings which have heretofore actuated us in our intercourse with England, and do to her as she does unto us. A movement is springing up that will steadily and rapidly increase, until it makes some of the ab- surd and rotten institutions of Great Britain tremble to their foundations, and crumble others in the dust. The Departure of the Steamship Washing- ton —Ovean Steam Navigation. The American steamship Washington, having undergone extensive alterations within and without, for the purpose of increasing her speed, and enabling her to rank as one of the fastest ves- sels afloat, left this port yesterday on her second voyige to Southampton and Bremen. She left her dock in the North River at five minutes past one o’clock—fired two guns, and proceeded towards the Quarantine, with a full head of steam. She looked as fresh and as handsome as she did when she was launched; indeed much more so, as When she got abreast of the Battery, it was remarked by several nautical men of experience, in our hearing, that she had two much cargo the water. This may retard her speed some- what; but notwithstanding her apparent great depth in the water, she proceeded down the bay at a very good rate. The following are the names of the passen- gers:— THE PASSENGERS BY THE STEAMER WASHINGTON. J. Randal, bearer of des- patches to U. 8. Legation, While we were watching the departure of the Washington, we observed the United States steamer Legare sailing up and down the bay— now heading up the North River, and then going towards Staten Island. Finally, we saw her fol- low the Washington, and on making enquiries as to the object of her excursion, and observing a numerous company of gentlemen on board, we ascertained that the excursion was for the pur- pose of testing an apparatus for providing the boiler with a continuous supply of distilled water, which was invented by, and constructed under the superintendence of Mr. John Errics- by the direction of the Treasury Department. A number of professional persons, at the head of whom was Mr. Charles H. Haswell, Engineer in Chief of the Navy, were on board, to examine and report on the practicability of the apparatus; and in case of its being successful, to recom- mend a similar contrivance being put up in each If this experiment be successful, it will be of the highest importance in marine steam naviga- We shall watch the report of the commit- tee of examination, and publish it in the Herald | as soon as we obtain it. Steam Sur Britannta.—The pumps of the Britannia have been constantly at work stnce her arrival, in order to keep her free. * She will be taken upon the dock in the course of this morning, and repaired with despatch; painting and other preparations are going on rapidly, so that her time of departure may not be delayed beyond her regular day. She is to return to Boston, and sail thence for Halifax and Liverpool. Tre eaeen.

The fast sailing ship Star Republic, Cart. El- well, arrived at this port, yesterday, from Mon- tevideo. She made the passage in forty-one days, and has placed us in possession of twenty-six days’ later intelligence frem that quarter. We have received our special despatches, files of the Buenos Ayres Packet, and the Commer- ciodel Plata, to the tatest date; also several im- portant documents relative to the affairs of La | Plata. Annexed are the communications from our cor- respondents: Buenos Avaes, 24 August, 1847. To tue Epiton or tae N. Y. Henarv:-- As my last letter to you, dated early last month was sent off in haste, I did not keep » copy, and there fore donot recollect the precise point at which the Eng- | lish and French ministers, Lord Howden and Count | Wal i, bad arrivedin their great work of settling end pacificatiog the affairs of La Plats. { believe, how- ever, I told you they had just come to the conclusion they could do nothing with Gov. Rosas—that thoy had discovered they could neither coax nor frighten him in- to a surrender of the independent rights of his country, end that they had, or were about, embarking for Monte- video to try the virtue of their diplomatic skill on Gen. Oribe and the “anomalous” government in that city. I think I told you, too, that previous to their departure, Mr. Harris, our charge, had addressed them a very able and vemperately written letter containing a protest sguinst a longer continuance of their so called blockade. This letter, as well as their replies, you doubtless will have seen in the papers of this place or Montevideo ‘The noble representatives of the “peace-making” gov- erpments, arrived at Montevideo about the 6th ult.— They immediately opened @ correspondence with Gen. Oribe, who as you know, is besieging the city; they visi ed him in his samp, and daily after conaideretie as cussion, came to an agreement with him for an armis- tice to last six months. The terms were—“Both bdellige- rents to keep their respective itions.” “The city of Montevideo to be provided with cattle through the care of Gen. Oribe, who obliges himself to deliver to the au- thorities of the city, one thousand five hundred head of outtlo per month, at prime cost. on a day fixed upon by the British, Fronch and Oriental commissioners.’ (Jobn Bull aud these South Americans never forget the beef) “The dlockades established on both sides of the Plata by Ube naval forces of France and England, to be raised.” _ This agreement was made between Lord Howden, Count Walewski, and Gen Oribe, the latter signing as General, and not as President, to avold the vexed ques- tion of title to the Presidency of the Oriental Republic, Count Walewski, in @ private and confidential nove, communicated this agreement to the government inside of Montevideo, aud asked if an armisticy, foundud on such basis, would be agreeable to it. “fhe Minister of Foreign Affairs” gave a negative reply. Mark his rea- suns! If the blockades ba raised, and the country re- maia as at present, in possession of Gen. Oribe, all busi- vess will be diverted from Montevideo to the Busea, and other ports in the Banda Oriental, and to Buvnos Ayres; ond Montevideo, government and all, must aterve and fall—maugre the fifteen hundred head of cattle wonthly ae — exact substance, though not the wording of 2 reply. Thave often told you that the blockading operation in this river bad’ been carried on for the benefit ot the Montevidean government, and the loan jobbers there, to the prejudice of the whole world beside, and here we have a direct admission of the fact by the ty interested. This reply placed the ministers in a ne lemma—their protégé had become refractory and bedient. What was to be done next? Lord Howde for his part, determined to cut the knot he could not un- tie. He saw his government had been acting an unjust, uoworthy, and disgraceful part, and like a high minded soldier, as he is, he determined to back out ot the sorape, | and wash his hands of the whole matter. He immediate- ly addressed the following letter to Sir Thomas Herbert, Commodore of the British naval forces on this station: ¥) “Mowtevinro, July 15, 1847. ‘Sir: In re Mme aan from Lord Palmerston, March 22d, 1847, it is said—You can, if needful, give to the ar- rangement the character of simple military conventions, involving no ides of a recognition of rights, but simply containing the admission of an existing fact—that cer- | t the hoad of cortain bodies of troops.’ | ording to the spirit of this permission, and anxious to avoid the dreadful expenditure of human life, cruelly and unprofitably consumed in s war such as this, when, though the daily conflicts be inconclusiv» and in- glorious, the sum total of deaths at the end of the month ig very considerable, | proposed to consent with my col- league, Count Walewski, a fuir and honorable armistice to it bby omnie of Montevideo, and to Gen Oribe, who was to furnish, at the lowest price of first cost fif- teen hundred head of cattle per month. “Gen. Oribeaccepted this armistice, not only with the condition imposed, but ina manner by which the title he assumes of legal President should not be presented in signature, so as to incapacitate the plentpotentiaries of re to and France affixing their names to the docu ent. “The government of Montevideo has refused this ar- mistice, which I do not hesitate to say, was advantegeous to its interest, as it is without money, without credit, and without native troops. As I consider, finally, that the Orientals of Montevideo are not at this moment free nts, but entirely controlled by a foreign g*rrison; and ondly, that the blockade having lost ita original ‘cha- racter of @ coercive measure against Gen. Rosas, has be- come exclusively @ mode of supplying with money, partly the government of Montevideo, and partly certuin fo- reign individuals, to the continued detriment of the ex- tensive and valuable commerce ofE.ngland in these waters I hereby request you, sir, to raise the blockade of both sides of the river Plate, and to take the measures neces- si for ceasing all further intervention in these waters ‘After acting together for 80 long a time, allow me to take this opportunity of thanking you sincerely, for the uniform kind and effective assistance I have re- ceived from you on every occasion, for the furtherance of her Majesty's service, during the protracted und diffi- cult negociation.

The first thing the English merohants of this city did upon the ar- | rival of the honorable Lord Howden,was to call agneeting, and send a committee to pay their respects to his lord- ship, at the same timeasking his protection; but his lord. ship informed the committee that he could not receive them nor their petition, as his mission in the river was ended. This conduct exasperated them much, for if i his mission was ended, he could, in the first place, have received them, and then politely informed them of his position; but, as it was, they pocketed the insult as well as they could, hoping that he would soon leave, and give room for ome more worthy to represent their govern- ment; but what was their surprise, when they ed that he had opened @ correspondence with Gen. Oribe. After a few days he presented to this government the fruit of bis labors for their sanction, which was, viz., that Gen. Oribs should agree to an amnesty of six months, faroishing the city with 1,500 head of cattle at a reason- able price per month; the English and French, on their part, raising the blockade of all the ports on both sides of the river, which would leave Montevideo besieged, und as bad as blockaded = This government, 4s o matter of course, concluling they might as well be killed as to starve to death. therefore refused toe amnesty, upon which his lordship gave orders to Commodore Terbert to raise the blockade, and cease all hostilities, and left for Rio Janeiro without any kind of settlement with Bu-now Ayres or Oride, Tals course, of contuat oxas- perated every one, and'particularly 5 they, who have ‘always, been 80 ia of their country. de: clared they would disown her.

Here we have a specimen of the noble blood of old England, much too high to receive the respects of one of the most respectable body of merchants in South America, at the same time willing to stoop so low as to horsewhip one of her humble subjects, (who, by his dishonorable and unbeard of course,) he has almost re- duced from xfiluence to poverty; but. at the present day we may look for anything but honor or fair dealing from England or her representatives, in this question. “From the beginning there bas been nothing but foul intrigue. “Mandeville” sot the first exainple, “Owsley” followed it up, and contrary ton agreement made with Baron Deffendia, upon his arrival, opened @ private correspon- dence with Rosas, stating that he hed to settle the difficulties before the Baron arr! hich correspon- dene was published—then, without a declaration of war, coptured the Buenos Ayrean fleet off the harbor of Mon- tevideo, following that up by opening the river Paran: taking forts, and killing hundreds of innocent persons, blockading Buenos Ayres, and at the same time having the audacity to say,that they were not, nor had they b at war with Buenos Ayres; and now, to close the they say that Montevideo is in the hands of foreign consequently she cannot act as she would; withdraws her protection, and leaves without making any settlement with either party, France has been more consistent, and still ooutinue, to act and enforce the blockade ; but she may think it best to do as England has done, con- cluding that there is no more plunder for her, Why do the United States remain quiet, seoing one of the finest countries constantly drenched with blood, ail caused by the meddling of the crowned heads of Europe.

We give, in addition to the above, the follow- ing important correspondence between the Ame- rican Charge des Affaires acd the English and French ministers:— ‘ My Lonp:— MR. HARRIS TO LORD HOWDEN. Lecation or THe Unitxp States, Buenos Ayres, July 1, 1847. Rumor had prepared me to anticipate, what the obli- ging candor of yourself and the Count’ Walewski has just confirmed. Your joint negotiations with the Ar- ‘gentine government have ended, without any ite urrangement of the difficulties, which have peace ‘ist- od between your respective governments, This is, indeed, a termination of your labors, which I most herp Rae [regret it,on many accounts, It is a result which wili mn to the true commercial noe themselves; it will be deeply and vitally injurious to the Provinces of the Con. federation; and prejudicial, to the last Soares, to the lawful commerce of all neutral nations, This has, indeed, been the condition of things from the beginning. The blockade has, in no respect, accomplished the end for which it was avowedly established. It bas only tended to annoy and irritate those whom it was ineant to coerce. Another practical effect has been, that whilat it destroy- ed all lawful and open commerce, it bas forced a sort of spurious commerce through the port of Montevideo, ob- liging it to pay both an import and export duty, which was levied lor the support of the aromaious government. in that city The chief benefit, however, even of this system did not enure to the covernments of England wnd France, or tothe people at large of those govern- ments, but confessed!y and nvtoriously to the advantage of a few persons in Montevideo, and still smaller number in this city. I may safely state, then, that such has been the chief practical effect of this biockade—a blockade which has been kept up at an immense expense, andeven xome iucouvenience, to the governments of England and France. In regard to the question of policy, assumed and act- ed on by your government, in connection with that of France, with respect to the affairs of the River Plate, your lordship is advised of my opiaion and of the opi- aion and policy of my government, in regard to it. | may be permitted, however, to repeat here, that the uniform policy of the government of the United Siates, from its foundation to the present moment, has been. uever to interfere, or to claima right to interfere, in theinternal concerns of other goveraments. It leaves all to pursue that line of policy, aud to adopt that sys- tem of meusures, which each may deem best calculated to promote its own interests, and to secure its own happi- ness. Acting upon this principle, therefore, and with » consistent adherence to its own just policy, it could not sanction the intervention of one wr more governments, as of right, or by force, iu the affaira or iuternal con- cerns of another independent government. And this principle, perhaps, could be the less tolerated by it, «hen the attewpt to enforce it on this continent is made by those governments, whose constitations or political forms do not recognize the great conservative principle, that the people are the true, and only legitimate source of all political power. Notwithstanding, however, that such is the policy of my government, upon principle; and, notwithstanding, it would not aporove the attempt of the governments of Englund and France to enforce a contrary doctrine by hostile meagures, upon the governments of the Plate, yet, it has judged it best to conform, for @ time at least, to ‘course of measures,which they bave thought proper opt. ‘This it has done, for » period of nearly two y but which has been done, however, as your lord. ship Knows, wader prot It bus not, and does not, au- mit the legality of such @ blockade, as has been blished by the intervening ronments in the River Plate. And your lordship will permit me to express the opinion, that should the question of the legality of this blockade be hereafter raised, in any court of admiralty, either in Great Britain, France, or the United States, whores proper scrutiny into the facts, and @ rigid ap- plication of the principles of international law sbull take place—principles that have been acknowledged and eata- bitshed by Great Britain herself—that such court will decide aguinst ite legality. Such @ judgment would fol- low, no less from the principle upon which this blockade was founded, than from the manner in which it has been conducted. ‘This last aspect ot the case will be abundantly apparent to your lordship, when I state to you the fact, that trom che 23d of February, 1846, to the end of May, 1847, the aggregate number of vessela which have entered’ and suiled from the port of Buenos Ayres has been four thousand and twelve. I state this from the regulur monthly returns, which have been made totais legation, and which are now before mo. It is true that these wore cblefly vessels of small size, passing in and out in ‘he night time ; but it is also Red true that quite a large number of them—perhaps half of peng ter in and out in open day, and in full view of the blockading forces, without any serious attempt to stop them. These vorsoln, however, paying tribute in the port of Montevi- deo, upon the merchandise or produce which they car- ried, us I have before stated. Your lordship will also | peso me to state, further, that # longer coutinuance of the blockade, in its present form, woul prebably give some color to the opinion, long since entertained, that one er both the governments of Enyland and France ha’ bi sed and purposes dis- tinct from, and beyond those which thiv iutervention was avowedly established to regulate. That they have some purpose to establish a permanent political iniluence in the Banda Oriental, which might control or change the present form of that government. [ do not assert thie to be #0, I certainly have no evidence of such av intenuion beyond it its incidentse—may} rmust be permite government of the United State could not sanction for ‘a moment the establishment of any governments or colo- nica, as political communitics, in any of the provinces of the Plate, by any Enrepean government. And, without permitting myself even to indicate what line of conduct my government would pursue in such a contingency, | may sately declare that it could not look upon it with approbation or indifference do, therefore, agaia, in the name of io government, and for the preservation and sustentation of # great rinciple, which it must ever hold sacred, most respect- Pauly, but solemnly protest against the further continu- ance of the present blockade. { protest against it, as well for the principle upon which it has been established 4s on account of the manner in which it has been con- duoted, and the object or objects it is intended to en- forow, 1 ‘be allowed, however, respectfully to suggest, that itis every way politic and expedient that the block- ade should now raised.

LORD HOWDEN TO MR. HARRIS. Burnos Avnes, July 2.1847. Sin:—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter, dated the lat of July, in which, ina most courteous manner, you make some observations on the | circumstances of the present inowent, and in which, as | a Representative of the United States of America, you protest against the continuance of the bloékaiein these waters, as not only illegal and unjust, but even detri- mental to the objects it was intended to attain. From the urbanity and moderation which have distin- guished you in the many conversations we have had to- gether, lee sure that you will nold me excused from discussing the legality ofany acts of my government at & moment when my mivsion here is terminated; but | there is one point touched ‘on in your letter which it ia | Impossible for me to pass over in silence. | You say that suypicions have been entertained that el- | ther the two governments of Great Britain and France or one of them, may harbor some ulterior designs inimi- cal to the independence of the States in the neighbor- hood of the River Plate. Icannot allow such anaccusa- tion, though, Irejoice to say, not made by yourself, to be put even in the shape of a rumor, without utterly dis- | claiming it onthe part of my government, and adeteg unhesitatingly in its name, in the fullest and most unre- served manner, that it neither ever had or has, the remot- ext idea, wish or design, against the perfect independence of both the Argentine Confederation and the Repub'tc | of the Uruguay, and their entire enjoyment of all the privileges, rights, and immunities belonging toindepend- ent nations, With regard to your remarks on the inutility of the blockade and its pernicious eflects on the commerce of neutrals, you may rest assured that I give them my deep and anxious attention. But as it is expressly enjoined | to me in my instructions to act in entire concert with | the Plenipotentiary of flis Mejesty the King of the French, you will see the propriety of my not giving any | insulated opinion on @ subject embracing so many in- terests, ° Ihave the honor to remain, sir, with regard and re- spect, your very humble and very obedient servant. WDEN. The Hon. Wm. A. Harris, &o., ko. | COUNT WALEWSKI TO MR. HARRIS. Missrox Ext RAoRDINARY IN La PLata, | Buenos Aynes, July 3, 1847. Monsieur le Charge d’Affaires:—1 have received the | letter you did me the honor of addressing to me under date of the Ist of July. Pleased to be assured that I re gret as much as you the inefficacy of the efforts which | Lord Howden and myselt have not ceased to make ia order to put anend to the present state o! things in La | Plata, Iam bold to hope, after the conversations we | have had together on this subject, that no doubt rests with you respecting the share of,responsibility attaching | to each party in the failure of the negotiation carried on between us and the Argentine government. You believe it to be your duty, sir, a8 a representative of the United States of America to protest against the | blockade established in La Pista by the governments of France und England. Allow me not to enter here into 8 discussion of principles in order to prove, to. you that, in concerting with the government of H B. M. to inter- pose a joint mediation betwoen the two States at war on | the banks of La Plata, the government of H. M. the King | of the French have done naught else but what was com- | mended to them by the interests of their countrymen | and humanity, without in any way transcending the | rules of the law of nations. | I flatter myself with the belief that a more mature and attentive considerstion of the facts will suffice to | show you the legality of « blockade in conformity with tbe most elementary principles af international law. But there is one assertion in your letter which I can- not allow to pass unanswered. You think that the pro- | traction of the present blockade would seem to give | some wetght to the hackneyed accusation levelled against | the Governments of France and England, or one of them, of harboring jointly or separately some design | against the ind-pendence of the Oriental State. This allegation is so destitute of foundation ; is in so mani- | fest contradiction with the primiples which have gusded | the mediation—the obj ct of which, uniformly procicimed | by the Governments nf France and England, is chivfly | to secure the complete independence of the Orientul Ke- public of the Uruguay—that I ought pe:hape to refrain | from repelsing it. Nevertheless, as it is possible that er- | roneous advices may have left some doubt in this re- | spect on the mind of the Government of the United States of America, [ do not hesitate to declare in the most formal manuer, ia the name of the King’s Govern- ment, not only that they never have had the intention of inflicting the least injury on the independence of the Argentine Confederation, or that of the Oriental Re. public of the Uruguay, but. moreover, that the constaut object of their policy in La Plata is, and always has been to secure to these Hepabiics the full and entire enjoy- ment of that independence, and of the rights and pri- vileges appertaining thereto. | As regards the injury inflicted by the blockade on the | commerce of neutrals, and the manner in which that | blockade has been conducted up to the present. I would cheefully concur with the Plenipotentiary of H BM, with whom my instructions enjoin me to act in the most perfect accord, in order to avert, if practicable, the in- conveniences you point out, and it would be gratifying | tome, to cause to cuase in concert with Lord Howden the injaries inflicted on the commerce of neutrals, pro- | vided the possibility of doing so were afforded us. Allow | me, therefore, to add, sir, that itis desirable that the | no unfavorable effect, w just influence which the friendly voice of reason should | th ulways exercise should be sufficiently made to be felt in | your relations with the Argeotine government; in order | to piace usin a sitdation to satisfy your wishes which are in entire accordaxce with our own. I will not close this letter without returning youthanks | for the testimony you ure pleased to bear respecting the | eptrit of conciliscion which I hi not ceased to evince during the pendency of the negotiation. Believe me, also, sir, that | appreciate at its just value the concur- rence you have more than once jwnt, in making the Ar- gentine government hear words of mederstion and ele- vated reason wortby of the nation you represent. tlease to accept, Monsieur le Charge d’Affuires, the | assurance of my ¢istinguished consideration | A WALEWSKI | esof the U. 8.

No report has reached us of any dsmage fu these cases, nor indeed do we recollect that a single instance of loss, of any magnitude, from this cause, has occurred in all your extensive shipments, Our last letter detailed at some length the circum- stances existing around us, in reference to the condition of that portion of our population claiming publio relief, and gave some hints of the course pursued and intended to be pursued by this Committee. In both of those particulars, we find but little further to report at present; @ great reduction has tuken place in the isaue of rations by the Public Relief Committees, and it has been truly gratifying to flud that multitudes of able bodied persons, thus thrown on their own re- sourcet @ found employment in the gathering in of ® most abundant harvest, and that even with moderate earnings, they are placed in a condition of comparative comfort by the abundance and cheapness of fuod This source of employment, however, is but temporary; and we continuy to look forward with considerable appre- hension to the approaching period when the demand for labor will be so far abridged, as to leave without the means of subsistence that large proportion of our rural population, who have been heretofore accustomed to live for @ considerable part of the year solely on the pro- duce of their potato ground Jn dealing with this state of things, great difflculties will be experienced in the first place, to preserve from | starvation those who are really destitute, and in the next place to administer the required help in'a way as little caloulated as possible to foster habits of idleness and dependence on others, Your bounty wiil enable us in no inconsiderable degree to contribute to the ameliora- tion of sufferings which no aystem of leg siative relief, however well direoted, can elfectually reach, and it is to this end that our labors shall be directed, convinced that in so doing, we shall be acting in conformity with the benevolent desigus of our constituents.
