In its nature, it is not a local affection* as modal of the Emancipation Society relative to the steam rams in the Mersey. Foreign Office, August 13. Gentlemen—I have received your letter calling attention to a subject of very grave and imposing importance, namely; the fitting out or equipping two powerful iron plated steam rams, which I am informed are intended to commit hostilities against the Government and people of the United States. My attention has long been directed to these subjects. Both the Treasury and Home De partments have, at my request, made most anxious inquiries upon the subject of these steam rams. Y'ou are aware that by the foreign enlistment act a ship is liable to be detained, and.-tbe owners are subject to a penalty when the ship is armed or equipped for purposes of war, and the owners intend to use her against some State or communi ty’ in friendship with her Majesty. It is necessary to prove both tiie equipment and the intention. It is necessary for conviction in a public court of justice to have the evidenco of a cri-dibie witness. I was in hopes, when I began to read your me morial, that you would propose to furnish me with evidence that the steam rams in question were in tended to carry on hostilities against the Govern ment and people of the United States; but you have made no proposal of the sort, and only tell me that you are informed that so and so, and it is believed that so and so, is the fact. You ranst be aware, however, that, according to British law, prosecutions cannot be set on foot upon the ground of violation of the foreign enlist- is usua'.lj supposed, but constitutional, pervading ment act without tiie affidavits of creditable wit- iitpher, pitch and camphor. .... , ' If whatever it inav be compose*!, it is one of the nost destructive ngeiits ot wartare known in aneien r modern times, and while we know that the Yankees SV, not possession of the lost secret, they may vet jrm a compound whose effect may be dreaded in a The RappsbnnmH'k Nnvnl Eipcdili#" Lieut.
