The State of the case. --The London Times, commenting upon the excuses which have been made by the Yankees for the seizure of Messrs. Mason and Slidell, observes, in substance, that they have taken as precedents one or two cases of acknowledged wrong done by Great Britain, and endeavored to draw them out into precedents.
