we frequently receive additions at the same offices, and these

FOREIGN NEWS 
Great Britain. — Pi-psidcut Lincoln's message 
claims great attention, notwithstanding that public 
feeling was deeply engrossed with the death of 
Prince Albert The silence of the message on the 
Trent affair was the subject of much conjecture and 
comment. It. was generally regarded aN a loophole 
for escape, and gave rise to some hopes of peace, 
although the general construction was warlike. 
The Times argues that by the studied silence the 
President has left himself a door for retreat, but 
thinks the chances of peace undoubtedly diminished. 
It also says nothing can be more ungracious than 
the President's treatment of foreign powers. For 
their forbearance a gracious and courteous acknowl¬ 
edgement was due. It also devotes an article to the. 
report of the Secretary of the Navy, a Inch it treats 
with ridicule, and denounces as an unparalleled 
crime the project of blocking up. ports by sunken 
vessels. . 
The Post treats the message as undeniably war- 
dike, and though remarking on the silence relative 
to the Trent affair, says it was scarcely within ordi¬ 
nary scope ot the message. It also charges the 
President with ingratitude in dealing with maritime 
powers. 
The Hews considers his silence as indicative of 
caution and prudence and favorable to peace. 
The Slav also justifies his silence, and praises his 
clearness, force, and ability. 
The Herald takes a contrary view; fears peace is 
almost hopeless. 
Parliament meets the middle of January. 
1 he death ol Prince Albert caused most profound 
sensation. Great sympathy was expressed for the 
Queen, who bore her bereavement with much forti¬ 
tude. 
Passengers by the Asia report that the blocking 
up of Charleston harbor with stone is likely to lead 
to difficulty with. European powers. Tt is further 
rumored that England’s warlike preparations will 
continue, in view thereof, and that the surrender of 
Mason and Slidell are not the whole of England’s 
demands. 
France.— If was current at Paris that the French 
government hail sent notes to Russia, Prussia, and 
Austria, suggesting the common mediation of the 
great powers between England and America. 
The Paris Bourse was a shade firmer on the 20th 
inst.—closed at 07f. 26c., for rentes. 
The Temps asserts that a dispatch has been 
received from Seward, saying that the American 
government is ready to guaranty every facility to 
neutrals, compatible with the rights of belligerents, 
and would give any satisfaction in case of the 
infraction of any rule that had been adopted. This 
dispatch was dated before tho Trent allair, but it is 
considered as showing peaceful intentions of the 
American government, 
Italy. Signor Patozzi had tendered his resigna¬ 
tion of Presidency of the Chamber of Deputies; but 
the Chamber unanimously expressed a desire that 
he should retain his post, at least until the dose of 
the session, 
Spain.—T he government bill levying import duty 
on raw cotton, had been laid on the table in Cortes.
