Reported Rupture with England-
The mail steamer Europa ha 3 arrived at
Halifax, after having been detained twen
ty-four hours at Queenstown, to take aboard
a Queen's messenger with special despatches
for Lord LYONS. Tbe intelligence receiv
ed by this steamer is of the highest impor
tance. Its substance is to this effect:
After the 3linisters had held a private
caucus at Lord PALMERSTON'S office in
London, they proeeeJod to Windsor Castle
where a special Cabinet Counsel was held,
Queen VICTORIA presiding. Ilere it was
determined to demand from President LIN
COLN ample "reparation" for the imputed
indignity shown to the British flag by
Captain Wilkes—to obtain satisfaction, by
immediately liberating Messrs. Mason and
Slidell, and restoring them to the protec
tion of the Uuion Jack; and further, that
the American should make a suitable apol
ogy to the British nation. It is intimated
that the despatches to Lord Lyons contain
instructions for demanding this humilia
ting conduct from the American Govern
ment.
It is added that, in view of hostilities, the
exportation cf nitre and other ingredients
in the manufacture of gunpowder has been
prohibited by England—that the land and
sea forces of Canada are to be very greatly
increased—and that, to please Lancashire,
the blockade is to be rendered a nullity bv
British ships of war. It is threatened
that the demands to be made by Lord Ly
ons are to be enforced by a British fleet in
the Potomac, and that the iron-cased war
monster, the Warrior, is specially to head
this expedition.
It is right to add that some of the libe
ral London journals think this intelligence
premature and exaggerated; but the Ob
server, a semi-official Sunday paper, as
well as the Times, publishes these state
ments.
Unless Kngland desires a juarrcl with
the United .States, we do not place implicit
faith in the above. It may be that the
pampered minions of despotism in England
with a royal family afflicted with heredita
ry insanity, may fancy the time has come
to overthrow republican institutions in the
new world ; but if so, tin's war inay be the
prelude to her own destruction, and the
next ten years witness her own humiliation
as one of the great powers of the earth.
The wily Napoleon has already led her on
to wars which have largely increased her
public debt, and lessened her once boast
ed influence on the continent until Imrdly
a second rate kingdom asks the advice of
British statesmen. In the meantime he is
strengthening his navy, teaching the use
of arms to every able-bodied man in France,
wnd then, when fit for his prey, WATER
LOO WILL t!E AVEN<JED !
r I he effect of this news in the North
will be to unite pubhc sentiment more
firmly than ever, and create a stern deter
mination not only to punish the authors of
the wicked rebellion hero, but to strike a
blow at Great Britain that will in the end
be more severely felt than the transient
loss of cotton, viz., to eschew the purchase
of all British goods hereafter. The an
cient hate against that country —once so
general, even in our recollection —wiil be
revived in a tenfold degree, because iu
this case there is hardly the shadow of a
pretext for a war.
ia the meantime, in view of this new
difficulty, we trust our armies at Washing
ton, on the Mississippi, and on the sea
board, will at once strike blow upon blow
until victory crowns our banners, or defeat
compels us to acknowledge that we cannot
subdue ihe traitors South.

Patent Democracy and Eebsl Slavery.
The pateat democratic newspapers of this
and adjoining States are certainly the most
anomalous things ever seen in print. I'or
years they have been contending that by
tbe constitution slaves are as much pro
perty as horses, mules or cows; and yet
now, when a Senator or a member of the
11-juse of Representatives proposes an act
of Congress confiscating this property (in
th ho ' tf rebels only) a thousand objec
tions spring up. One want 3an assurance
about every other week that this war is not
waged ihr the purpose of exterminating
slavery ; another thinks it monstrous that
the general government should interfere
with slavery in any way; a third sees the
"nigger in the woodpile" in all that trans
pires ; a fourth laments that they should
be set free ; a fifth already sees the entire
nortli overrun with contrabrands —but not
a single one suggests any plausible plan
for their future. A leading principle in
war is to do as much harm to your enemy
as possible, with the lea.-t sacrifice of life
and means on your part It this can best
be done through slavery, it appears to us
it must be a poor patriotism that would
hesitate to strike rebels with it. It is
th ir most valuable property, and unlike
lands, which may be regenerated, once gone
is lost altogether. The acts referred to
simply propose to liberate the slaves of
rebels, and in case loyal men should also
suffer through it, to compensate them for
their losses. The United States Govern
ment cannot descend so low as to become
an auctioneer for selling the slaves of reb
. els; but by liberating and colonizing them
' —as recommended by the President —it
at once performs a christian act and strikes j
a severe blow at the foundation of this
wicked and causeless rebellion.
A Xutfor Southern Sympathizers
31 r. Sauisbury, of Delaware, is one of
those patent democrats who would obtain
peace at the sacrifice of our country as a
whole, and lately offered resolutions in the
Senate for that purpose. To show how
such projects are relished by the Southern
traitors —and particularly for the informa
tion of cringing spaniels here who still
talk about "Southern flights"—we pub
lish the following, by which they can see
in what estimation they are held by their
brethren:
A Peace Commission from Yankeedom.
[From tli-- Norfolk Day Book. Dec. 9.J
We see by the proceedings of the Federal
Congress that, in the Senate, on the 4th inst.
Mr. Saulsbury offered a joint resolution that
Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, Roger B.
Taney, Edward Everett, George M. Dallas,
Thomas M. Ewing, Horace Binney, ileverdy
Johnson, John J. Crittenden, Geo. E. Pugh,
and Richard W. Thompson, be appointed
Commissioners on the part of Congress to
confer with the commission appointed by th
" so-called Confederate State#," " for the pres
ervation of the Union and the maintenance of
the Constitution."
We conceive that this is a pretty bright
idea on the part of the Yankees ; but we are
at a loss to fully appreciate the compliment
of their call on us to mantain an instrument
(the Constitution) that they have long since
smashed into sinithers, unless it is that there
is a party among them that still believe in the
superior statesmanship of our Southern lea
ders, and they wish to get them to fix it up
again for their especial benefit, seeing its de
struction has enabled the Autocrat to trample
rather severely upon their liberties.
We would recommend to those "Constitu
tion" cobblers the peculiar virtue of " Spal
ding's glue" for their purpose, with the as
surance that they will find quite as much
virtue in that article as they would likely find
in the combined wisdom of all the statesmen
in the world for the repair and preservation
of an instrument that has been so badly rent
as what was once the "Constitution of the
Lnited States." J.t for their Union, we
would remind them thai it is an excellent Un
ion for them, being composed of such despica
ble, God forsaken scoundrels as were never ra
ked together in one parcel since the world has
been a world. It is now a perfect dog cat dog
• ongtomeralion of negro-thieves and pirates :
and, as they have got rid of the honest people
of the South, they are now at liberty to " go it
with a rush."
May be they would like a cessation of hos
tilities for a time—during the palaver of the
commissioners, as another resolution propos
es—in order to get an opportunity to accom
plish some object they have in view. But
po.-sibly our people have had enough of such
d 'dges in the Crittenden compromise schemes,
which were afterwards proved to be but
means used to gain time on their part.
if they desire peace they have but to with
draw their troops from our soil, and let us
alone, end until they do this we should perse
veringly scorn any proposition emanating
from them.
We wonder if these poor, miserable, degra
ded, negro.stealir.g wreches do really think
to gammon the people of the South still fur
ther ? What under heavens should we want
with a union with them ? To share the debts
caused by their folly? To share alike with
them the contempt of the world ? For surely
we can conceive of nothing else we should
gain by any future alliance with them.
ihe following, from a Tennessee paper,
shows how npar the savage state the South
ern rebels are getting :
' Hang 'Em."
[From the MtruiJiis Avalanche of the2d.j
Hang eny yes hang them, every one.
I.very hast iennessee&n found recreant to
the will and interest of the State of Tennes
see, and known to be actively conniving with
its enemies, should be hung, and loftily.
When the citizens of a State have, by an
overwhelming majority at the ballot box, de
termined on its foreign policy, and by that
policy have been necessitated to arms for the
defence of their homes and firesides, every
resident ou the soil of that State who lends
or gives aid to the invader deserves as little
mprcy on earth as Belzebub will give them
in his empire. Wherever the cobra-like head
of treason is lifted it should be stricken off,
; and that quickly, for its poisonous saliva is
| contagious as th 9 3irs of Maremma. " Hang
' 'cm, Hang 'cm," every one.

Conflagration at Charleston, S. C.
The news of the great conflagration at
Charleston is fully confirmed. We have
received information of it, not only from
those who arrived at Fortress Monroe un
der a flag of truce, and from the despatches
in the Richmond papers, but the captain
of the United States transport Illinois, on
his way north from Port Royal, saw, at 10
o'clock on the night of the 12th instant,
when he was about sis miles distant from
Charleston harbor, that a tremendous fire j
was raging in that doomed city. The
buildings destroyed were located in one of
the most important portions of the town,
and were nearly all constructed of very in
flammable material few or none of them
being built of brick or stone.
There are different reports in regard to j
the origin of the fire, but it i 3 quite pro- ;
; bable that it was the work of a negro in
cendiary; and although it is scarcely pos- j
sible that, while such a strong military or
ganization of the whites exists, a slava in
.
! surrecfion would break out, yet it cannot
be doubted that hones of freedom are cher- !
| 1 j
! ished by many of the slaves, and that they j
will make desperate efforts to realize them.
No matter what may have been the origin
of the fire, the people who commenced the j
rebellion and rejoiced over the fall of Fort
Sumter, must now be in a fearfully dis
tressed condition, and if it be indeed true
\ that to the misery caused by the conflagra- ,
j tion, the terrible horrors of a slave insur
-1 rection are added, their condition must be '
inconceivably deplorable.
The N. Y. Herald of Sunday, in commen- ;
! ting upon the late firo at Charleston, truly j
| says
It is worthy of remark that Institute Hall, ;
i where the Democratic Convention was held, !
which split the party, and split the nation : j
i the theatre, to which the Secessionists retired
i t~ aold a separate convention ; St. Andrew's I
I ila.il, where the Mozart faction figured; the 1
Charleston Hotel, and the Mills House, where
the warring factions respectively held their
! headquarters: Hibernian Haii, where the se i
i cession ordinance was passed ; the eannon ;
and ammunition foundries, the treason shops
of the Mercury and Courier, and the head j
quarters of Governor Pickens, have been all j
laid in ashes. Does it not look like a retri
bution of Providence, and an omen and a |
typo of the future destruction of the rebel j
lion ?
j The Charleston Courier of the 13th gives a
: list of between 200 and 300 sufferers, and '
says that the loss is estimated at from five to
seven million of dollars.
The Charleston Mercury says that five hun
dred and seventy sis buildings were burned.

fflStPrentice's letter disavowing the article ;
in the Louisville Journal respecting the admin
j istration policy on slaves, was addressed to
Col. Thomas A. Scott, Assistant Secretary of
War. The Lewistown Democrat knetc there
was no such letter, yet it has turned up.
BBL.The Democrat, with its usual perver- :
sion, says the Gazette advocated gas in the
court house on account of its cheapness. We
did no such thing. We said that if court was J
( held for a single evening, it would save the 1
interest of the cost of the fixtures—and thus \
prove a saving to the county.
fcafWe would respectfully inform the val
iant fighting editor of the Democrat that we l
wrote precisely what we meant in our article 1
alluding to the locofoco press following the j
course of the Southern Jacobins, and if he j
chooses to put the consiruction on it he does i
we cannot help it. No one else we have heard 1
of read it in that way; he, however, can '
please himself.
WTiat the "Louisville Journal" Says: ]
"We do not believetbat in this age of cheap publi
cations any work can be more reasonable than the
terms of the SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN at $2 per annum, with i
twenty-five per cent, discount for clubs of ten. It 1
forms a yearly volume of *32 pages quarto, with an ■
immense number of original engravings of patented 1
machines, valuable inventions, and objects of scien- 1
i title interest. There is not an industrial pursuit which ;
does not receive a share of its attention. It, contains c
official lists of patent claims, important statistics, prac- .
tical recipes for useful domestic purposes, ana has
lone stood, both in this country and in Europe, as the "
highest authority in the mechanic arts and sciences '
There is no publication more valuable to the farmer \
the miller, the engineer, the iron founder, themechan
• ic, or the manufacturer. We have never opened a c
: number without learning something we never knew t
before, and obtaining valuable information for the
benefit of our readers. The publishers, Messrs Munn
A Co., of 37 Park Row, New York, have deserved 'he ?
success they have achieved. Mo <me should visit that t
city without calling at their palatial establishment, i
which is a museum of inventive genius, collected 1
from the entire world. If any of our friends away off 1
in the country do not know this work, and will take <
our advice, they will mail *2 and become subscribers
immediately, or by applying to the publishers they
can obtain a specimen copy gratis, which will be sure r
to confirm the truth of our recommendation."
We fully indorse the above, and would recommend 1
our readers to take Prentice's advice, and snosepbe e
for the paper. A new volume commences on the Ist 8
of January, and it being a valuable work of reference; |
containing, as it does, iho only official list of patent ' 1
claims published in the country, every number should £
be preserved. The paper is published every Saturday v
by the well known patent agents, Messrs. Munn A Co' 6
who have conducted the paper during the past sixteen
years.
In addition to furnishing specimen copies of the pa
per gratis, the publishers will send a pamphlet of ad
vice to inventors, free of charge. Address, MUNN A
Co., 36 Park Row
New York Mercury offers two cop
ies of that paper in exchange for country pa
pers on inserting its advertisement five times

the account stand as follows: Advertisement
