bcc.nuso of the weakness they most

mind, to havcMhe active direcliotis of
all - military' movements., Upon! thipj
subject.oar people, and even the most )
tiitcfliiTeiij, it now appears,|liave|becn,j
mistaken. It has been believ
ed that Gin. lliillcek the General in-

INTERVENTION
'f- ! I
t With the arrival of every dispaltjh
from Washington,' we have the excit
ing news that England -or .France, or
both, have determined to interpone
their power" to stop to our la
mcninbio and disastrous civil war,
but, fortunate ly, jby the next arrival,
or j poor, after, we receive news that
■ the reports of intervention are with
out foundation, and again the people,
or] at least the loyal portion of our
citizens, again breathe freely. •
: We an perfectly aware, as we have
shown to our readers in various arti
cles upon the subject, that the aristo
cracy in 'England, ‘ with a few‘honor
able exceptions,-are in favor of a re
cognition 6f this miserable abortion
called Southern Confederacy,”
anti arexontinnally using their gov
ernment to put an end to the civil war.-
They do more; they giye countenance
-'dor
tojfhe traitors who reside in
and circulate most disgraceful
falsehoods in relation to the Govern
ment of the'Uni ted States, and they
furnish means ifrom their confers to
"traitors to supply them yrith the
means of breaking down our free in
institutions. The government ofEng
}and lids Msfendd too much to the cla
mor of these" nobles and purse-proud,"
aristocrats. They have done so until
a feeling ot bitter hostility ;has been
created amongsour people. But, for
tunately, a reaction hap
produced. The middle and lower
classes of the people of England haVe
discovered thejlrno condition of affair's
here, and aroused themselves to meet
tlieir lordly oppressors, and give the
full weight and 'power of their influ
ence in favor oif 'free government. Jpn

bles and aristocracy are determined,
as far as they eo nlrol affairs, to crush
out the liberties’ of the people in I all
lands | where -they enjoy , the, rights
whichjGod hasgivon them, but which
restrain or limit their desire tb mid
over beings they are accustomed to
consider as their inferiors; whilst uion
the other the great masses of the peo
ple arc (determined not, to be conti oll
etl any : longer by those who by 'hered
itary right have assumed to Iran pie
upon them., The resolve , has been
announced to the world that the ago
