A3T INDIGNANT ARTICLE AGAINST ENGLAND. The New York "Herald, id a editorial commenting on the recent action of the Chamber of Commerce of that city, in relation to the building , of Confederate ships in England, says : t ; .'. -c ? : 1 A feeling of strong indignation " was expressed at the conduct of the British , Government; which! con nives at the fitting up of those armed vessels in En glish ports. Mr. Low made an inrerestihg statement, showing how differently John Bull acts when ,he is in trouble hiTnself and when his neighbor is in trouble. During the Ilussi an war a vessel , had been fitted , up here 'fur ' the Cahton trade, and the 'British Consul having heard of t itand suspecting the ship wits in tended for Russia, , remonstrated with- the American Government. The consequence was that she was de tained, though her owner was perfectly innocent of any intention of violating the neutrality lawp. j Mr. Low thinks and everybody "thinks, it is not unreason able that the English -Government should berequired to follow the same course how as regards tKe United States. It has been asked to do so,; but what course does it pursue ? It is stated that whep Earl Russell was remonstrated with on the subject he admitted he was aware! of the fitting up of those privateers in English waters, but said he could not interfere: with private enterprise. He asked why American cruisers did not capture them. But wheu .an American cruiser, the Tnscarora was sent to capture one of them, the "290' (now the Alabama,) which was then ready for sea, the British; Government refused her coal,-so that she was compelled to seek it in a ! Spanish port, and the rebel bird meantime had flown.
