The address of r. John Jay to the Union Club of New-York, which has only just got into circulation, although it was written three wonths since, will do good here, and I trust may lead to disclosurcs of some interest when Parliament meets again. Mir. Jay's position and personal lurity ive weight to bis words, and he states that somwe of the jenders of the Democratie pul({ in the first two years of the war obtained access to Lord Lyons, representin, themselves as entitled to speak for the nation, and urge on him the policy of Euglish intervention. In proof of Lyone, his statement Mr. Jay refers to a u..‘g.mn of Lo ineluded in the papers printed by order of our Parliament, in which is fourd an allision to these interviews. Take by itself, this utch discloses nothing but the bare fact of such’ interviews baving taken plece, and implies that the persons who sought them were gentlemen of high position at New-Y Further information on the point may probably be fortkeoming fiom our forcign oflicer in which should certainly be made for your sakes as well as ours.
