255 - L. Feb. 4; ed: 2/1 - School books found on the captured blockade run-
ner EILA, bore the dedication "To His excellency, Jefferson Davis, presi-
dent of C. S. A." This series of books, selected from the best texts,
and prepared and adapted to the wants of the Southern states, is respect-
fully dedicated "by yours, etc. K. J. Stewart, London, England, June 15,
1863." "It was an outrage to prevent the reception of these instructive
volumes by the persons for whom they were intended; but such is the fate
of war, and blockade-running is a risky business." (5)

765 - L July 14; ed: 2/1 - When time London conference, which assembled
to make harmony between Germany and Denmark, adjourned, the English
press was in favor of war against Germany and favoring Denmark. From
the beginning of the German war, the English government has threatened
until time for action; then it has backed down. "England is right in
trying to avoid war, as she would expose her merchantmen to droves of
Alabamas, but her cowardice is subject for laughter and disgust." - (5)

934 - L. Jan. 27; ed:2/2 - The people will read with gratification
Seward's dispatches to Adams, our minister at London, touching our rela-
tions with England. Their calm, firm, and decided tone and the grave
warnings which they convey to the English government express the senti-
ments of the American people. Seward says that the United States shall
protect itself against armed cruisers from Great Britain, and insist
upon indemnities for injuries which expeditions have committed, and the
navy of the United States shall receive instructions to pursue enemies.
We feel that in these extracts there is a calm, earnest, dignified warm-
ing, which is more impressive than empty vaporings. (6)

1413 - L Oct. 5; ed: 2/1 - "Nothing is more obvious than the support
given McClellan by the English Tory Press.... If there is a newspaper
in England whose prayer for years has been that the Union might be dis-
rupted, that one is the London HERALD, an ardent champion of McClellan....
"They approve an armistice and negotiations because they know that
under Democratic rule, in case of failure to restore the Union by nego-
tiation, the war never could or would be renewed, and the independence
of the South would be secured." (6)

1674 - L Nov. 18; ed: 2/1 - A correspondent of the London TIMES thinks
that the Germans are unwise to invest their money in our government
bonds. "The truth is, however, the Germans are wiser than the John
Bulls. The stubborn Englishman is jealous of the good fortune of his
German neighbors who are buying six percent gold bearing bonds for
just half price, realizing as much as twelve percent on the dollar.
The Germans are wise just as our own people are." (4)
