Peace.—The New York Courier and Enquirer thus speaks of the state of affairs at Washington:

We are happy to add, from the same undoubted source, that the personal relations between Mr. Fox, the British Minister, and Mr. Webster, are of the most friendly nature; and that both of them have distinctly said, within the last few days, that there is not the slightest probability of any thing occurring to disturb the amicable relations existing between England and the United States. The visit of Mr. Crittenden, to Lockport, is more for the purpose of exhibiting a proper interest in the trial of McLeod, than to make any demand for his release. There is nothing in the official communication of Mr. Fox to Mr. Webster, of an offensive character.
