As an evidence of the good opinion of the English moneyed class in favor of the South, and the adverse sentiment of that ciass towards She North, he makes allusion to the striking fact that a Bouthera loan for £3,000,000 being put upon the market ‘the offerings amounted to £15,000,000, while an agent of tho United States, being sevt for the same purpose, fatied 80 effect a nogotiation—being called at the time a financial ‘yecognition. In crogsiog the British Channel he found the all | aymes and powerfui Emperor of the French our stead- friend. His protectorate over Mexico will lead, Mr. Lamar thinks, to friendly relations between Mexico and she Southern confederacy.

Perhaps your lordship might best acoom- plish this object by obtaining permission from the authorities of both beiligerents to seud a special messea ger to Richmond with the necessary , in which you will transmit this paragraph, or the substance of tt, together with all that follows, to the close of this com munication, Her Majesty’s government, tn taking tbie course, desires Mr. Davis to rest assured that it is adopted en- tirely in that spirit of neutrality which has been declared the policy of this country with regard to the two beilig- erents now 80 lamentably dosolating America, and whic will continue to be pursued, with a caroful and earnest 5 ICAMAUGA aud justice. After consulting with the law officers of the crowa, her Majesty’s government have come to the decision that agents of the authorities of the so-called Con‘edorate States have been engaged in building vessels which would be at least partially equipped (or war purposes on leaving the ports of this country; that these war vessels would undoubtedly be used against the United — @ country with which this government is at peaco, that this would bea violation of the neutrality jaws of the realm, and that the government of the United States would have just ground for serious complaint against her Majesty’s gov- ernment, should they permit such an infraction of the — relations now subsisting between the two coua- ries. Her Majesty’s government confidently rely on the frankness, courtesy and discernment which Mr. Davis has displayed in the difficult circumstances in which he has been piaced during tne past three years, for @ recognition of the correctness of the position which her Majesty’s government have taken upon this sub. ject. No matter what might be the difficulty of proving in a court of law that the parties procuring the building of these vessels are agents of the so. called Confederate States, it is universally understood throughout the world that they are so, and her Majesty’s government are satisfied that Mr. Davis would not deay that they areso. Constructed as ‘‘rams,’’ 8 ves- sels are, they would certainly be in a condition on leay- ing port to inflict the most serious damage on belonging to the United States, as was shown by the de- struction of the Cumberland, United States sloop-of-war, by the fram” Merrimac, merely by the latter being run into collision with the Cumberland. Such vessels are to all intents and purposes equipped as war vessels of a cer- tain power, although they be without s gun or any am- munition on nor can the frequent use of the word “equip” in tho sense of ‘to furnish with everything ne. cossary for a voyage,’ be held for a moment to limit its significance to the furvishing of war with everything which it might be possible to put upon her, or the ultimately putting of which on her might be coa- templated. Such a coustruction cannot be entertained It 1s clear thata hundred and twenty gun ship might beequipped for war purposes with any fracticn of hor armament on board, although she might ‘not be so powerful or go efficient as she would be if she had the whole of it. Aram would be also equipped for war pu though the absence of her ordnunce and rposes, ammunition might render her less effective than she would be with them. This, it is presumed by hor Majes- ty’s government, will be conceded by Mr. Davis without further argument or illustration in support of it. This much being established to the perfect conviction of her Majesty’s government and the law officers of the crown, and admitted, as they are convinced it must be, by Mr. Davis, and by every other person of sound and impartial j mot, the 18 not the slightest room to doubt that it is purposed to use the vessels in question against the United States, a country with which this nation is at and on terms of amity, andthat the permitting of them to leave the ports of her Majesty's dominions would be a viviation of the neutrality laws of the kin , and such an injurious act towards the United States as would justify the government of that country io seriously complaining of it as unfriendly and offensive in the Dighest degree, even to the imminent peril of rupturing the pesceful relations now existing be- tween the two countries, ‘Under these circumstances her sao government Protest and remonstrate against any further efforts being made on the part of the so-called Confederate States, or the authorities or agents thereof, to build or cause to be Duilt, or to purchase er cause to be parchased, any such ‘vessels as those styled rams, or any other vessels to be used for war purpvses against the United States, or against avy country with which the United Kingdom is at peace and on terms of amity; and ber Majesty’s govern- ment further protest and remonstrate against all acts in violation of the neutrality laws of the realm.

The Auntversary at the Church of the Puritena Dr. Cheever yesterday evening delivered a discourse before the Church Anti-Slavery Society at the Church of the Puritans, Union square. There wa: but a small con- gregution present, and members continued to leave the eburch from time to time during the reverend doctor’s isoourse—po doubt the cry of the Huratp extra having more fascination, for some at least, of bis hearers than anything they wore listening to within the walls of the church. ‘The reverend gentleman took as the subject of his dis- course the text thirty sixth cuapter of Job, seventeenth to twentieth verses: But thou hast fulfilled the judgments of the wicked; jue- tee and sudemen’ take hold on th use thet ie wrath, beware lest He take thee away am thy richest No; not gold nor all the when people are cut off in their place. The text wus elaborately applied to the question of slavery and the policy of the President and his adminis- tration with regard to it. That policy was strongly de- pounced as an expediency policy—not such # policy x8 justice nor national honor demanded, but which was ‘alike dishonoring to the nation aod repugnant to the God of justice. Congress had early in the war a great work to perform in declaring @ policy which would have Set the oppressed free; but they had failed in taking ad- ‘vantage of the glorious opportunity, and. instead of per- forming a work which would bave redounded to the honor of mankind—as well as te the benefit of millions, they had left an indelible stain upon the American nation.

The American and Foreign Christian Union. ANNIVERSARY SERMON AT THK BROADWAY TA’ WACLE. The auviversary sermon of the American and Foreign Christian Union was delivered iast evening at the Broad- way Tabernacle, corner of Broadway and Thirty-fourth stract, by the Rev. James lis, D. D., of Brooklyn. a very fair congregation assembled to listen to the com- mencement services of the anniversary to be held in this city this week Alter an elegant and appropriate prayer by the pastor he gave ootice that the anniversary exercises would bo held on Tuesday afternoon, at two o'clock, in St. Paul's Methodist church, corner of Twenty-second street and Fourth avenue, when addresses would be delivered by the Rev, Dr. McClintock, from Paris, Dr. Sunderland, chaplain to the Senate; Rev. Sr. Morebead, missionary to Italy, and the iion. Mr. Lyman, Minister to Lima, The exercises promise to be very interesting, and all are in vited to be preseut, it then announced that Dr. Eelis would deliver the Anniversary Sermon, who thereupon came forward, aod took bis text from the Second Epistle of Paul to Timothy, second chapter and ninth verse—‘“But the Word o{ God is pot bound.’ The speaker proceeded to demonsiraie that from the earliest existence of the Bible the Word of God had not been bound: that in ail countries where per- recution had reigned and fierce, lenting hestilky to the Bible haa prevailed, it was now read and sought alter, and was one of the strongest guments in’ favor of tne truth of the assertion be word Of God is not bound.’ Paul, bound and ip prison, did not believe that the **Ward’’ was bound, or for & moment feared that its gracious promises would not be verified in ite darkest hours. The majesty of the king- dom of Christ was above bond: \d nover depended for its oxisteuce upon men. Th eak jn the faith, when trouble comes, will ask what is to be done now, but the stroug know that God ili belp in all times of need; for His Word bas spoken it. The proof that the Word of God 1 not bound will be found inthe works of history It haa not been bound by the strictures of men on its divine origin ot autbority. Tbe efforts of ungodiy men have failed, ‘avd theiy arguments have produced no alarm except io the minds of the weak; aod when the mind of man was called to into the sophistries of these infidels the Word of God was still more strongly established.
