Considerable dissatisfaction is felt, and
loudly expressed in England, in consequence
of the rather cavalier manner in which the
late General HAVEGOOX has been mentioned,
by the, Indian Government, in their.despatches
to the East India Company and the Board of
Control. The Calcutta correspondent of the
London Times says:
11;1,000 00
4,000 la
"The lose has created a most painful impression
in Calcutta. We are all a little hardened here.
We have seen so many generals tall, have become
so accustomed to misfortune, have learnt so com
pletely to expect mismanagement, that nothing
moves us now. Yet even here a Government
telegram announcing, All going on well at
Abambagb; General Havelock died two days ago,'
excites a little disgust. The press darn not coin.
plain under penalty of oonfisoation, but the public
voice is pretty audible. We have now but two
generals left in whom the public have any confi
dence whatever—Sir 0. Campbell, and Brigadier
Cotton, of Poshawur. Should au accident happen
to the former, who has a habit of planing himself
in the hottest of the tire, our prospects will be
poor indeed. Neill is dead, and Wilson, of Delhi,
18 sick unto death, Sir Henry Havelock'we are
now mourning. Sir James Outrara would not sup
ply his place, General Windham is under a cloud,
Sir Hugh Rose is wanted at Bombay, and the
many young men equal to tho oacasioll have not
sufficient rank."

The tame authority pays this graceful tribute
to the memory of the departed hero :
"The deceased General," be says, has been a
prominent character in Indian history for nearly
twenty years. He was one of the few who passed
through the Affghau campaigns with added repu
tation. In the first Punjaub war ho was Lord
Hardinge's most treated friend. A slight, spare
man, about five feet five Inches in height, with an
emaciated face and an eagle eye, he belonged em
phatically, to the class who have never to contend
with disobedience or mutiny. As a general, he
was the beet tactician we have bad In India; and
as an officer, though stern, and sometimes exacting,
his antique heroism made him the idol of his men.
Re was, indeed, perhaps tho bravest man in his
own army, and was never so, chatty or agreeable
as under fire. Like most of our Indian statesmen
and soldiers, the Lawrenees, Edwards, Nicholson,
Montgomery, ant! many others, ho was a Christian
of the' old stamp; a strong, God-fearing Puritan
roan, who thought often in Soriptural phrase. and
deemed it no shame to teach his soldiers to pray.
'Turn out the saints,' said Lord Gough on-one
occasion, when he anticipated desperate work;
'Havelock never blunders, and his man are never
drunk.' "

As might be expected, the famous Circum
locution Office, whose business is not to do a
thing, has been busy in HAVELOCK'S affairs.
On the 27th of November, General HAVELOCK
was duly and officially announced, in the Lon
don Gazette, as having been made a Baronet
by Queen Vitrroauk's orders, as Sir Mclver
IfAvEmme, of Lucknow. He did not survive
to learn that this hereditary dignity had been
conferred upon him—his death taking place
two days before the date of his Baronetcy.
Some discussion has taken place in the Eng
lish journals as to whether General HAVELOCK,
having been a dead man before the Baronetcy
was conferred, could legally be, considered
as Its recipient, and, therefore, whether Cap
tain BAvnLocg, his eldest son, had any right
to assume the title. This has been solved by
a curious disclosure--namely, that though
the Baronetcy was granted on the 27th of
November, the patent conferring ft had ac
tually not been made out and engrossed np to
the 15th of January. In other wards, the
Circumlocution Office had let seven weeks
pass without taking any step whatever to carry
Into legal effect the wishes of the Chief Ma
gistrate of the country. Queen VICTORIA,
who has a fiery temper of her own, is not likely
to take this neglect very quietly, but the Cir
cumlocution Office will care very little for her
Majesty's anger. The lowest clerk In that ve
nerable and worse than useless establishment
Is so connected with the high nobility by blood
and association, that the idea of dismissing
any of the troupe, for neglect of duty, would
be contemptuously smiled down as prepos
terous.

136,830 89
As the letters :patent were never put in hand,
it is now determined to antedate them about
five weeks, so as to make the Baronetcy be
granted from the day on which Sir HENRY
HAVELOCK relieved the garrison of Luck
now. This will place his son's succession be
yond doubt.
Another point merits notice : HAVELOCK
has died in rather distressed circumstances.
After having undergone much labor, many
privations, and occasional losses, during forty
three years of military service, he has not
been able to leave anything like a provision
for his widow, daughters, and sons. Parlia
ment, no doubt, will carry out the intention of
settling £l,OOO a year upon Lady llamocx
and the family. lint this is a small sum
among several persons, especially as they aro
now elevated to a position which is in
compatible with contracted means. We
notice a proposition, in some Of the
London journals, to commence subscriptions
for a Havelock Fund, the intention being to
raise a sufficiency for the respectable support
of the family of the hero of Lucknow. A dis
cussion has arisen, whether the subscriptions
should be limited to a guinea or a shilling; but,
whatever the restriction, If the suggestion be
worked out in a proper manner, at least 420,-
000 can readily be obtained. Not meet, is to
be expected from the high nobility and aristo
cracy of England, for HAVELOOK obtained his
renown wholly by merit and not at all by fit-
mily connexion. But the matter wou:d bo ar
dently taken up by the People. Hsystecx
was, most emphatically, one of the People.
Do sprang from the Middle Class, and he has
belonged to it all his life. Whatever honors
he obtained—and they were tardily and be
grudgingly bestowed—be won them solely by
his sword and his brain. Neither money nor
family connexion pushed him forward. ile
was a self-made man—one of the Democracy
&his native land.
There is a report that, bad Sir HENRY HAVE
LOCK lived to return to England, It was the
intention of Queen VICTORIA LO have made
him a* Peer. We believe that Queen Vie-
TORIA, even if such were her desire, has very
little power to carry it out. Her Ministry alone
have the ability to confer titles of rank and
honor, and very capriciously exercise it, seeing
how, a few weeks ago, they cb anged Mr. Ca
vsnersit into d , Baroll CIIESHAH," simply be
cause ho possessed wealth, because he had
voted for the Whig party in the HOUBO of Com
mons, and because be was one of the numer
ous cousins of the Duke of DEVONSHIRE.
HAVELOCK has not survived to receive a
peerage. There are precedents for conferring
that honor on his family. Ono very much to
the point was the case of Sir RALPH ABER
onovar, who expired, like WOLFE, in the
arms of victory, after having defeated the
French at Alexandria in Egypt. His widow
was created Baroness Aasnonomay, in her
own right, and, on her death in 1821, her
eldest son succeeded to the peerage, which is
now held by her grandson,Lord AREROROMBT.
Again, in October, 1805, when Lord NELSON
was killed at Trafalgar, having left no male
child to succeed him, the "Viscounty was ele
vated into an Earldom, and conferred upon
his brother, as next of kin. Later yet, when
Mr. CANNING died in harness, as Prime Min
ister, his widow was created Viscountess
CABNINO, with succession to her son, who is
the present incapable Viceroy of India. There
are precedents enough, therefore, for con
ferring posthumous honors on the dead,
through the living; but as HAVELOCK did not
belong to the "Upper-Ten" of British society,
wn do not expect that any thing extraordinary

We have discussed this question, though
purely a British one, because, in the whole
course of our experience, wo do not recollect
so much interest created, in this country, re
specting any foreigner—except LAFAYETTE,
whom wo count as a fellow-citizen end compa

over the surges of Anarchy, in 1848, and the
angry billows were stilled ; and Louis Kosstrrni
when lie visited us, a few years ago, and capti •
vated thousands by his wondrous eloquence.

The Adm Liston of Kansas nude? the Lecomp.
ton Constitution, and its Probable Effect on
the Future of the Democracy.
(From the Washington Daily States
Kansas, it would seem, is still decreed by fate to
fresh phases of difficulty to the politician who so
lately thought he bad reason to bid the subject a
hearty adieu. It comes before us now in the least
questionable shape, hut in so opposite a manner to
that we so lately deemed unquestionable, that it
demands a consideration, more for our self-defence
as Democrats then for any settlement of its Oen
' Vox They, it would appear, are settled by the
people of Kansas for themselves. '
Governor Denver's proclamation to the Pee°
' of the Territory, showing that there Is a majority
of ten thousand of the bona fide voters of the
Territory against the Leoompton Constitution, is
the first well-authenticated evidence we have that
the people of Kansas are almost unanimously op.
posed to It. We have had plenty of newspaper
statements to that effect, and no lack of their en-.
doreement by politicians ; but we never have had
the facts presented to us as they now are. They
come to us as the offioial votes of the citizens of
Kansas, endorsed by the signature of the Federal
°Chalet governing the Territory; and we cannot
but recognise their full bearing and Importance.
We remarked on Saturday that the result of
Governor Denver's returnsgivea an entirely new.
aspect to the Kansas question; and it is a matte?
for thoughtful consider:WM whether Kansas ought
to be taken into the Union with the Lecompien
Constitution, and a majority of three to ono against
it. Wo have persistently refused to bo led by the
statements of stultified letter-writers, and swimm
ing or speculative politicians ; representing or mis
representing each and every side of this Kansas
controversy. We have always argued for n sim
plification, and not a complication of the facts of
the case; Advised our readers to wait patiently for
Ketch eimplifieation, and not to he deluded by the
excel° 8 of demargnes in search of petition) capi
tal; end who, hoping to bless their own stars, have
bounteously cursed Rensasby their interference.
We have now to take decided action on the
question. In a few days the reprosentatit, es of the
entire people will be put to the test or sustaining
the doctrine of non-Intervention and State rights,
on the principle that the people have a right to
form their own Constitution ; or that a Constitu
tion condemned by three-fourths of the people of
Kansas shall Isis forced upon them by the National
Congress.
Wo cannot too earnestly beg of the Democratic
Senators and members, from tho North and the
South, to give to this vital question all the honest
consideration such a fundamental question es this
of State rights demands, and especially for its
present relation to Kansas. We beg of them to
consider the question in all its bearings—its gains,
its losses, and its final results. Noisy deolemation
on the one band, or bland sophistry on the other,
must not defraud their convictions of the truth.
Lot them rot like reasonable reasoning mon,
honest to themselves by being honest to those
principlesof State rights Democracy by which their
constituents pent them to Congress.
It is beyond doubt that a large majority at the
Northern Democracy is opposed to the Lecompton
Constitution, on the ground that the people of Kan
sas who have a right to choose their own institu
tione aro opposed to it. The press of the Demoora
oy tell us so; and Democratic Legislatures, In a
number of instanoes, have instructed their Sena
tors and members of Congress to oppose It. Oa the
other hand, the South ere almost unanimous in its
favor. Now, the qttestion is, 0101111 i 010 South
press the Northern Democracy to vote for the re
ception of the Lecompton Constitution at any sacri
fice ?
The nWonal Democracy of the North have al
ways fought end always will fight, edit by side
with the united South, on any question belching
the aggrandizement or safety of the Union The
Northern Democracy have stood by the South in
the acquisition of territory heretofore, and it Is
prepared to stand by the South in the acquisition
of territory hereafter. The knowledge of these
facts ought to make the South careful how it perils
the strength of the North, by forcing it to a vote
which, In all 'probability, might esoritiots its post-
Hon in the councils of the nation, and break up
the party power of the Democracy in the North.
The facts, on all sides, warn us of such danger
On the other hand, how the South to bo benefited
by such a sacrifice of the North 7 Let us see.
The admission of Kansas, in defiarsie of the ex
pressed will of its people, will, according to the
reported returns, bring into the Senate of the
United States two Black Itepublioan Senators,
which will weaken the South two votes In that
body. If we are to draw any inferences from the
prevailing opinion nt the North, the Democracy
there must be prostrated for some years by the ad
mission oft Kansas under such eircutostances If
our Southern friends have overlooked the effect of
a defeat of the Northern Democracy for the next
two or three years, we will refresh their memories
to the following facts :
In the Senate of the United States, parties now
stand-37 Democrats, 25 Opposition. From elec
tions whioh have already taken place, there will
be aueseions of Democratic Senators from Tennes
see, Kentucky, Minnesota, and Texas, which will
snake parties stand 42 Democrats, 22 Opposition.
Within the next two years Senators are to be
eleoted in nine Northern States in the place of the
present incumbents; and those already elected,
who ire Democrats, vie: Allen of Rhode Island,
Wright of Now Jersey, Bigler of Penney's&
nia, Pugh of Ohio, Stuart of Michigan, Fitch of
Indiana, Douglas of Illinois, Jones of lows, and
one of the Sena tore from Wisconsin ; besides Bright,
of Indiana, may lose his sent on account of ilia-
gality, and a Plug Ugly may be sent from Mary
land in place of 'Mr. Penrco—in all eleven seats
will need occupants. Some of these States, whose
Senators' terms will expire, may already be classed
as Black Republican, and the reception of the
Lecompton Constitution by a Detnooratio Congress
may result in the entire defeat of the Democracy
in the States now Democratic. Thus, in all pro
bability, eleven additional Senators will stand on
the Black Republican side of the United States
Senate, making parties stand thus: Numerate,
31; Opposition, including Kansas, 33. Majority
for Opposition, 2.
This Is not an encouraging picture to look upon.
But politicians, if they will, can males the prospect
pleasanter. We do not think we exaggerate the
difficulties to be apprehended at the North by the
reception of „the Lecompton Constitution by a
Democratic Congress. With Governor Denver's
proclamation before us, endorsing the people of
Kansas in the protest against the Constitution, we
cannot ace how a Democratic Senator or member
of Congress could face his constituents in the North,
If he voted for its acceptance. The South not only
positively gains nothing, but loses much by
making the acceptance of the Locompton Genet
station a test with the Northern Democracy. It
will only help to drive it out of Congress, and
drive the Northern ,Democratic Senators oat of
Congress, who would stand by the South in bring
ing in Arizona as a slave State, or securing to us
Cuba, Nicaragua, or Mexico.
It is not our desire to dictate what the South or
the North should do In this emergency ; but we do
desire to see the national Democracy united and
strengthened, and believe It our duty to fearlessly
present to that great party such facts as may tend
to warn it against destruction. This is the more
particularly needful now, in view of the new is
sues which must arise within a few years, and
which must be the means of securing wealth,
power, and an extension of our institutions eolith
ward, if our statesmen now look calmly at the
facto before they plunge the North, with the South.
Into this Lecompton maelstrom. They should eel.
tiler saorifice the North nor South for Kansas ; es
pecially when there is such incontrovertible rca
cone (as given by Governor Denver) for letting
Kansas alone.
