The British journals have all along assumed that as the Peter off was not bound to any American port under blockade, (but to Matamoras, a Mexican port.) her capture was wholly without warrant. The British Foreign Office have also had some sharp correspondence with Mr. Seward on the subject, and it is believed that "John Ball" has only deferred pressing his claim because of a belief that the American Court would decide in favor of giving the vassal up.
