-The London Fosl :tnd London Hernld have been obligad to chango tbeir tone slightly since tho letter of acceptance by Gen. McClellan was publisbed. The Potl sa}'s : There ia Hule to choose between a war republioan and a war democrat ; but whatever differenee there niay be, it would seem tb at, n the opinio of those who most ardently desire peace, it preponderares in favor of the former. Viuwiug the struglo from a distance, we enn perhaps fonn a better estiinate of the result than those actually engaged in the conflict, and we confesa that, whoever may be jeh'cted President od the Sth ol November, we can not see the faintest ptospeet of returning poace. The flower of sufety is too deeply einbedded in the nettle danger to admit of btóing plucked at present." Tle Herald eays : aKega4-diiig Mcükllan and Linty'n as equaRy fnlent o the restoiation of the TJ nion by force of anus, the choice which the Northern people may make between those eandidates ceaseu at once to liuve any absorbing interest for us.

The other is for 'pögg'mg away' till tbe South is conquered. Tke partisans of both are for cal ryinif on tito war to what they expressively term 'the bitter end.' " And laftly, if you happeu to have a true friend iu the worlt), you art1 sur', in a very short timo, to know it.
