Sir: You are already aware that the Queen is desirous of observing the strictest neutrality in the contest which appears to be imminent between the United States and the so-styled Confederate States of North America.

I have, &c., Newcastle. Governor — The Right Honorable Sir E. W. Head, Bart, &c. --Boston Transcript, June 20.
