We are all waiting with breathless anxiety for the response of our Government to the demand of Fs:gland for the release of the rebel emissaries, for on that reeponee, it is believed, the question of war - or peace han. Solicitude occasioned by this new question, adde d gs to the anxiety which this civil war occasions, leave me with little inclination, even if I bad leisure; which I _have mot, to enjoy London, presented, as it now is, under favorable auspices. Though really nobody, distinguished people receive me with a consideration not a little embarrassing. Our minister, Mr. Adams, with his amiable fa ' roily, are. exceedingly cordial in their attentions and hospitalities. Mr. Adams took me, on - Wed nesday, to Lord Lyndhurst, the Nestor of English juirisprudenbe, now midway between his ninetieth and hundredth years, with sight and hearing slightly impaired,' but with his intellectual faculties in all their vigor and brightness. Ile is a native of Bos ton; born before the Revolution, and deplores the possibility of war, though he Is quits sure it was wrong to take Slidell and Mason from under the ) British flag. Sir Henry Holland, of world-wide medical fame, drops intoour hotel (George street, Hanover Square) familiarly, and is oft to Windsor to see Prince Al bert who is seriously lit. Sir Henry, who hes boon =inch in Amerleans greatly, distressed at the idea of war. • Sir John,Wilson, Governor of Chelsea Hospital, 'Who received five woluids in the battle of Chippewa, called upon ne today. This veteran, who has been over sixty Teams in the service, contemplates a war with'Americi with shuddering. He told me that be had acted as "second" in six duels, all of whioh were settled, while three in whicih he was unfortu nately " principal" were fought. lie said that dif ference between nations, as between officers , could generally bo adjusted by the exercise of good sense and reasonable concessions on the part of those en -trusted with the management of them; that the party least to blame can best afford to make con - dilatory advances, and that when amicable results - are reached, , advances , generally come from ,that quarter. I went to-day, by permission, to Pembroke 'Lodge, Richmond Park, the country residence of Earl Russell, long , so well known in America as Lord John Russell, with whom I had an interview 'Wan helm, relating, of course, to our difficulties with this country. And al though I nm not at liberty to give to the readers of the Journal what was said on a question as delicate as that now pending, I may , say that: the visit In other respects was an in teresting ono, giving rue, as it did, some knowledge of an ennobled and distinguished family. At the conclusion of my interview with the Earl, lamb wail announced, when we met Lady and bliss Russell, with two Bona(boys) and a daughter of eight ye - a& lunch (which, as Lord Byron said of one of 'Mr. Rogers' breakfasts,-"might have been a dinner ") over, I took leave of the Earl, hut was asked by Lady Russell to look through the grounds ; and after Waiting a few minutes in the dining room, her ladyship came, in walking apparel, and gave me half an-hour's ramble through grounds richer even in horticultural interest than is embellish. Ments or in views. Though a moist day, with an • atmosphere to lit, yet in the openings her ladyship directed my - attention to =Hampton Court, Kew, Itiegston, Windsor, dos., An., and to those localities Made dual° by the residence of Pope, Horace Wel pole,!. and other literary celebrities. Passing a mound which attracted my attention, her ladyship drew me to the point front which Henry the Eighth Stood - watching, through an avenue in the woods of the park, fora signal locket to be fired from the florae of St. Paul's Church, announcing to his wife. murdering Majesty that Anne Boleyn was be. - headed. To:day, in city, I found time to iniulge, for an hoar, antiquarian tastes, visiting the stone which Jack Cade struck with his pike, when ho imagined himself "monarch of all be surveyed ;" then a. fragment of a halDburned church at a point where the great fire in•Londen was arrested, which Etude as it tien - stood - then the former residences of ,Sir Llano newton, of Sir Joshua Reynolds; and of -Ilogarth, all in a circuit, and within a stone's throw of each other ; and finally, the old and old fashioned house in Disbopsgate street, occupied by ]log Richard the Third, now "come to base uses" - -, --hort much baser than thugs of its early and king ly occupant I cannot say. There are ; howeVer but brief , intervals of relief from the anxieties which our public troubles occa sion.- I waaat the liseldng4ouses of Daring Brothers and Cleo.,Peabedy Ic Co., where news from America 'is hourly expected and tremulously looked for. — I- have made acquaintance, pleasantly, with several gentlemen of tho London press, whose columns ere kindly open to ate, and for some of which , I have, written; even ventured a letter yeiderday to AIM Times; which was courteously accepted—Mr. Detain°, the editor, doing um the favor of sending a proof-slip_to my lodgings go to Paris this evening.
