. . . on England and very justly at the conduct of the British
Cabinet in withholding from the public information that Mr. Seward wrote to Mr.
Adams that the seizure of the rebel commissioners was an act not authorized by
our Government. Every bit of information
seems to have been carefully husbanded by stock speculators. It is possible that Thurlow Weed who
corresponds constantly and confidentially with our Secretary of State has been
innocent enough to make a big pile out of the lately panic stricken stock
market.
