MOSDAY. APRIL 13, 1863.

CCorrespondcnce of The Press. ]
New York, April 10; 1863:
A BRIGHT DAY
has been such a rare occurrence for the past'three -
months that' its pleasant realization today brings*
out the spring-bonnets in rich profusion, the luxury
of being able to promenade'leifeurely from Union'
Square to Stewart’s and back again, without urn-:
brella or overshoes, being a temptationit is not in-,
the power of New York womankind to withstand;
Thecoolnesß of the air today, even, at'
compels the fair idlers to retain, in moat cases, the>
flowing winter cloak as a part of their, walking dress,»
and here and there a-last-season’s velvet bonnet in
dicates, individual moral- courage; but, as a general
thing,'the fuli-drees- perspective of; Broadway this:
afternoon is springlike and fresh. The' old-New
Yorker who takes a stroll aloDg the great metropoli
tan boulevard to-day, cannotfail to notice one very
marked effect of the war. The masculine dandies,
(for many of them were men, with all their eti'emina
cy,) have become a comparatively scaroe artiole, and
are only met at long intervals man afternoon’s walk.
: Since the war commenced, the breed has been gradu
ally thinning out,-until-now the fop erircgU is almost
extinct on Broadway, save as his modified counter
feit appears in the occasional person of some newly-'
arrived young scion of the British middle class, or
that >of some native tailor’s eldest born. 'I do not
refer to the bewitching creature who acts as lady
usher in the fashionable dry goods store when I
speak of the genuine Broadway fop, nor to the more.,
“numerous” young counter-jumpers of >the : next
rank. These are but weak and-ill-sustained irnita
tioDß of the genuine article. I mean the veritable
dandy of good family—the bank president’s son or
the merchant prince’a heir. -He and all his kind, I say,
have grown steadily less/. frcquent upon Broadway
on a clear day since the war commenced; and, al
though quite a number have gone to Buropc by the
consent of their Seccsh papas, a greater number r
have joined the army.
Many of the latter were certainly sad snobs before
they put on shoulder-straps, and it took all the stern
authority of their loyal fathers to drive them into
camp; but now they are distinguishing themselves in
a hundred regiments (principally cavalry) as gal
lant captains and lieutenants; and if we can believe
the Walpoleon war-chronicles of Mr. NYP. ‘Willis, in
the Home Journal , the. fastidious taste , and egregious
vanity of their Broadway fophood, have turned into
the military neatness and dignified demeanor of the
.dashing young hero of. a charge. Of all the British
officers in the Crimea, none were more distinguished
for their daring, and endurance under hardships,
than the young lieutenants and captains who had,
until the war, been the most effeminate fops of Lon
don. At least, so says Mr. Bull Bun Russell. We,
may hope for as much, if not more, in the career of
our warrior Broadway beaux; for American dandy-,
ism is, after all, only a superficial affectation of fo
reign mannerisms, and underneath it may lie a na
tive manhood, more noble and unflinching for the
ordeal of battle, than all the noisy ruffianism and
truculent bravado of the burliest bully of the pur
lieus. This city has actually done what the South
has only boasted of doing; she has .sent hundreds of.
gentlemen soldiers to the field—young men whose
very vanity as fops‘would make them afraid to come
home with the brand of “ coward” upon them,
where the coarse bruisermight safely slink backto
his bunk in the engine house none the worse for such
imputation. If the beau of the club house, trans
formed into a lieutenant, trembles when his regiment
is ordered into action, he trembles still more at the
idea of having that fear noted and recorded forever
against him in fashionable society, and the two op
posing impulses of fear produce that dead-lock of
feeling which only- relaxes into affirmative action
When the ferocity of the man fighting for his life
has taken its place, and turned cowardice into he
roism.
So there is much .to congratulate the nation upon
in the scarcity of fops in Broadway on such a walk
inspiring day as this, and if the spring bonnets are a
little disappointed at finding so few elegant youths,
abroad to admire them as they flirt by, that disap
pointment will be more than counterbalanced in the
pardonable pride they .will feci when tlieir old admi
rers come home in laurels, and add to their delightful
stare of admiration that distinguished look of lofty
patronage which is inseparable from all true mili
tary dignity,!

A JOKE

recently arrived here. Whilst visiting and inspecting
one of our large dry-goods estab]ishments, and ma

in true English style, by vulgar sneers at all things
American, a salesman respectfully called-his atten
tion to the illuminated cover of a box in which some
expensive embroideries had; been, imported, and
which bore a very beautiful picture of the departure
of Sir Charles Napier’s flag-ship, the“ Duke of
. Wellington,” for the Baltic,- in 1856. The fine frigate
was pictured as surrounded by smaller craft of every
description, and at a short distancefrom her appeared
an iron-clad “monitor,” turret and all, theexact ;
likeness of our American 1 “ cheese-box!” The
polite salesman, with the air. of; one: greatly
surprised, ventured to inquire, of the Cock
ney if it was really true that- “ monitors” were in
use with the English at that period?- “Oh, yes,”
responded Cockney, with. a swagger, “ I remember
seeing the blarsted iron clads building at ’ome twelve
years ago. Just show that to your bloody h’Ameri
cans ; they’re nothing but .copyers after the h’Eng—
lish, any’ow.” The salesman bowed; gravely,‘-as
though demolished by the proof he had received of
his country’s inferiority; bub shortly after the de
parture of the Britisher there was much mirth
throughout the institution, inasmuch.as the-moni
tor figuring in the picture of the English flagship had
been nicely added with a lead-pencil by one of the

THE “K.G. C.” CONSPIRACY,

chivalric schemes of revolutionary empire' thus :
rudely divulged. It seems as though one woe trod
upon another’s heels in. the case of the poor Cop
perheads, who are being exposed, baffled, disowned, 1 '
and snubbed in all directions: Scarcely had; Fer
nando Wood & Co. lost a whole army of their, sud
denly*enlightened Irish adherents by the revelation
of their conspiracy with the English .Q-overnmenfc
and intrigue with. Lord Lyons against the Union,
wheh this “K. G-. C.” expose is added to their sud
den unmasking $ and to-day all the officers of toe
Mozart regiment are out in a card, plumply denying
that Fernando ever paid a penny towards organizing
the regiment, and scornfully repelling the -idea that
the regiment would disgrace itself by sympathizing
with Mr. Wood's style of patriotism. This, too, af
ter Fernand© saying at that celebrated “ rally of the
Democracy,” on Tuesday night, that he, had raised
the regiment. The way of the transgressor la hard

London,-March 26.—The rimes says the seizure,
by Admiral Wilkes, of the private merchant steamer
Peterhoff, although not having a single contraband
article in her cargo, is to be submitted to Earl vßus
sell to-day,(Thursday), and the result is regarded--
with great interest by the commercial community,
since it iB Baid that Atlmiral Wilkes is; thus dealing
with all vessels on - their way to Matamoroa. It is
assumed that the Peterhoff must be released, but an
adjudication at Key West occupies six months, and
there 'is then an appeal to -New /York or Phila
delphia; The avowed policy of Admiral Wilkes is,
it is stated, to’ seize all vessels under analogous cir
cumstances, without any question of right in the •
matter, since he can thus, owing to the delay, pre
vent the possibility of any supplies of goods reach
ing the Confederates through Mexico. The value
involved in the ship, and cargo, in the present in

_ SPEECH.OF THE SOLICITOR GENERAL.
“ The Solicitor G encral said he could eaßily show
.that: the charge brought by the American Govern
ment iagainst-.herMajeßty.'s Government was most,
unfounded, and" when the honorable member re
ferred 7 to the complaints of the American Govern
ment it was-desirable to see what they were.; Since
the -first* Mr. Seward- complained not only of the
Alabama, but also; in. the same communications, of
the export of arms, ice., to the Confederate States,
It ewas certainly; astonishing that the American
Government could prefer such complaints ; but it'
had all along denied to Great Britain the rights of
neutrals allowed” by international -law, of which
they had been themselves the strongest assertera.
He" quoted, at length the opinions of American jurists,-
and the rules of practice laid down by Mr. Web
ster and Mr. Madison* to the effect that the Ameri
can Government did not arid could not prohibitdts
Bubjectß from Belling contraband goods to bellige

and confiscation by either belligerent. >
“The Government would; do rill that it could to
carry out-the. law. The Foreign Enlistment act was
passedfor ourown defence, and not by an obligation
of international law. ItSviolatiori was nota breach
of- ihterriatlonallaw, but one of the municipal law ;
and as there was no offence on the showing of the
American Government itself .against international
law, the only right of complaint arose from the act. -
The American Government was only entitled to ask
this Government to carry out the law as it.would do
ifit was concerned itßeli, and to administer the law
as English law-was always administered, not on bus-:
pieion, huton evidence. [Cheers.] If Government
bad directly-or inclirectly.aifled in fitting out hostile

. EARL RUSSELL TO-ant. ADAMS.
Foreign Ofvige, Jan 24,1563,. .
Sir : It is impossible for me to leave without notice
some of the statements contained.in your letter of the
30th"ultimo.
These statements contain. or imply a grave charge
against her. Majesty’s Government,, You.speak of the.
“ admitted, fact of a violation 'of. a this kingdom
intended to prevent ill-disi>osed persons jfrom involving
it in difiicuUy, by committing.wanton and injurious as-'
saults upon foreign nations with; which it'is at peace, of
which her Majesty’s Ministers are invited to take cogni
zance; of which they do itake. cognizance, so far as to
prepai*e measures of prevention; but which, byreason
of cu-cumstahces, wholly within their own control, they
do not prevent in- season to save the justly complaining
party from,serious injury.. On the.substantial points of
the case, little room.:seems left open for discussion.”
On .the substantial points of the.cise, as stated by you,
there is, on the contrary, great room left open for dis
cussion. .
I must ask, first, wha,t are the circumstances within
the control of the Government to which you allude ? Do
you niean that her Majesty’s Government, in construing :
a penal statute, or in carrying into effect the provisions
ol a p.enal statute, were to hurry at once to a decision, .
and-to seize a ship building and. fitting,out at Liverpool
without being satisfied, by evidence, that the provisions
of-the foreign enlistment act had been violated in the
case of such .vessel? Do you mean that lier Majesty’s
Government were to .dispense with .proof, and, to inflict
injury upon the Queen’s subjects by seizing a sliip upon
your mere Assertion that the owners of ; that ship were
violating the law ? ■ ‘ - . -
If such is your meaning, I must reply that the Govern
ment of this country respect the law. They do not seize
upon property to-tlie loss and damage of its owners with
out proofthat they are legally entitled todoso.
Perhaps your meaning is, that her Majesty's Govern
ment should have proceeded on the opinion of Mr. Col
lierwithoutwaiting for other authority.
Buthere, again, I must reply, that the usage of . this
country requires that tie Government should consult
their, own legal advisers, and obtain the opinion of the
law Aflicers of .the Grown before they proceed to enforce
a penal statute. '
If. you mean to contend, therefore, that a nation in a
stale ofprofound peace should, set aside the formalities
of law, and act at once upon pi’osumptions.and surmises,
I entirely differ from you. I may remind you that evi
dence sufficient to satisfy a com*t of law as to the “equip
ment” or “fitting out” of a .vessel for warlike purposes,
and of its actual destination, is not'obtainable without
difliculty.
: If you .moan that.her Majesty’s Government wilfully
. delayed or neglected the measures by which the charac
ter cf the Alabama could have been legally ascertained,
I must give a positive and complete denial „of the truth of
any such assertion. The opinion/of tlie law.officers, until
the receipt' of which her 'MajestyV Government could
not act, was delivered at the Foreign Office on the 29th
of July ; but in the morning of that day the Alabama;
.under pretext of a pleasure excursion, escaped from
• ; * . - •
■ 'With regard,to the very different circumstances of 1793
and 17E4, those circumstances are recorded in history. It
is notorious that M; Genet, the French minister to the
United States, .fitted, out privateers in the ports of the
United States; 1 that.he boasted in his despatches .of the
capture of British vessels /wdiich these privateers had
made, and that, he procured a sham condemnation of
those vessels captured in neutral ports. It is notorious,
also, that he endeavored to make the United States; the
basis of his operations and attempts to,,raise rebellions
against England in Canada and against Spain in Lou
risjafia. ' ’ ' :t .
. According to your own account, the United States .
purposely delayed to give any redress to tho complaints
made by the British Government of the captures of Bri-.
- tij-h merchant-vessels," because they felt unwilling to act
; on a policy of repression till they had given dne notice of
the construction they put upon a treaty offensive and de
fensive with Branca, which had been quoted in defence-.
of the depredations committed on British commerce.
It is evidentthatby so acting, the United States Go : .
vernment deliberately made themselves parties in the
interval'to the proceedings carried on in their own ports,
and the same Government, with the. sense of justice
which distinguished them, made compensation .after
wards for the injuries inflicted uuder cover and protec
tion of their own flag, and promised ;to exclude French
privateers “ from all further asylum in their ports.”
In Air. Jefferson's letter, .quoted by, yoa, lie says:
‘‘Having, for particular.reasons, foyhorufi to .use all"
the means in our power for the restoration,*’ &c. Here
is the injury stated, and here are the grounds why it was
permitted. .
But the British Government have given : no to .
belligerent privateers bringihg prizes into English ports. .
They have, no particular reason to allege. They have
not forborne to use all the means in their power. They
have used all the means they could use consistently with,
the law ofthe land, and by no fault.of theirs those mgans .
in a single instance proved inefficacious. There was no
want of a statute to enforce, nor of a will to enforce it; ;
evidence was wanting,- and' an authority jo decideupon ,
that evidence, till it was too late. But her Majesty’s Go
vernment cannot promise the United States to act witn
out evidence nor to disregard the legal authority ot their
own law. officers. . ' *, • A „
As to other points we are nearly agreed, so iai a* the
law of nations- is concerned. " But with respect to .tlio •
statements. your letter that, large f'nppjms .of various
kinds have bcen’sent. from this country by private specu
la'ors for the use of the’CoQfederatcs, 1 have to .observe
that that statement s only a repetition in detail ol apart
of the assertion inade in ray previous letter.of the 19th
ultimo-that both parties in tbe civil war have, to the
extent of their wants and means, British,sab
iects to violate the Queen’s proclamation,of the 13tli of
May/- iSGb which forbids her subjects from, affording.
suen supplies to either party. ; •
It is no doubt, true that a neutral may furnish, as a .
matterof trade, supplies of arias and. warlike stores’.im r
partially to both belligereqtsin a war, and it was not on
che ground that such acts were at variance wjth.the, law
of nations that the remark was made in the former note.
But the Queen having issued,a proelamation.lbrbiddirig
her subjects to afford such supplies to either party in the
civil wav, her Majo&ty’sGoY.ernment are entitled to com
plairi of both parties, for. having/induced: her’Majesty’s ■
subjects to violate the proclamation, and.their complaint
applies most to the Government of- tiie United States, bß
causo it is by: that Government that ; by far the greatest
amount of such supplies liayebeen ordered and procured.
: Ido not propose to disem s other collateral topics which
havo been introduced, but in. explanation of my former
letter I must say that I never meant to accuse yoU'of.
giving any encourageinen.t to ; the eullstment of British
subjects in this ’country to serve in. the civil war unhap
pily prevailing in the united States.
But it is notorious that largc.bouaiies have been offered
and given to British.subjects residingin tlie United States
to engage in the wav oxi the Federal side; and these Bri
. tieh -subjects, acting in."defiance of- the la\vs of their,
country and of. the Queen’s proclamation, have been en
couraged by the .United'Sfeles GovernmenC'Bo to act.
■; A recent and striding loxample of the open avowal of
jlhis course ofconduct on. the part of the United States
is to be found in the correspondence be
vtween Mr. Seward- imd> Mr.-Stuart with reference to the

Mr Lord; I had a conversation a; few days ago wath
Mr. Adams on the subject of the Alabama.
It did not appear that his Government desired to carry
on the controversy on this subject from Washington;;
they rather left the conduct of the argument to' Mr.
Adams,
On a second point,- however—namely, whether the
law with respect to equipment of vessels for hostile pur
poses might be improved—Sir. Adams said that his Go
vernment were ready to listen to any propositions-li-er-
Majesty ’s Go vernment had to make, but they-did-not see
how their own law on this subject could- be improved’.

The Tiatc Commander Cummings.
We print this morning the address delivered by
Commander James Alden, of the United States
eteamship Richmond, omMarch 22,.1863[, announcing
the death of the late Lieutenant Commander Cum
mings, whose gallant fate has made his memory a
precions'namedn history:
THE ADDRESS OF COMMANDER ALDEN.
With deep sorrow I call you together to announce
the death of our late executive officer Lieutenant
Commander-A. B. Cummings, at New Orleana. It
haa pleased God to take from among us our gallant
friend in the fullness of his energies and usefulness.
You all well know the importance of his services
in this. ship; his conscientious .devotion to duty ;:
his justice and.even temper in maintaining disci-,
pline; his ability in preparing for emergencies, and
his coolnessinmeetingthem. All .these qualities He ;
brought to his country in the hour of need, and he
has sealed his devotion with hie life. The fatal
cannon shot struck him when he stood on the bridge
cheering the men at the guns and directing their fire.
He was thrown down upon the deck, but his pre
sence of mind still remained. “ Quick, boys, pick.
me up ; put a tourniquet on my leg. Send my letters
to.my wife.. Tell them I fell in doing my duty.”
When below, he said to the surgeona, “If there
are others worse hurt, attend to them first.” “ No
lan, are you here, too?” He inquired about Howard,
and his thoughts were directly of others and of suc
cess-in the fight. When told that the noise he noticed
was from, the .escape of steam, and. that the ship
could no longer atem the current, he exclaimed, “ J
would rathe)' lose my othei * leg than go f back! Can
•nothing be done?. .There is a south wifia; where are
the sails? ,} . - • .
Friendsthe .high object of our country in this
war is “ that peace and happiness, truth and justice,.
religion and piety, may be established among us for
all generations.V In this sacred cause has fallen the
Christian gentleman whose death we now lament.
In .this cause have fallen all the brave men whose
blood has stained these decks. We cannot do our
duty better, but let us, at least, try to do it as well.
JAMES ALDEN, Commander.
THE .DEATH. OF COMMANDER CUMMINGS.
In this connection,.we are also permitted .to pub-,
Hsh an’extract, from a private letter, written by a
lady in New Orleana to a [friend in this city, giving
a touching. account of the death of Commander
Cummings, and the honors paid to his memory by.
the Union people of New Orleans: -
New Orliuns, March 23,, 1563. -
Dear* * *V Another brave man has fallen, a
martyr to hiß country’s flag, and your friend. Mrs.
,A. B. Cummings, .is a widow. Lieutenant Com- ;
-".mender Cummings .was. wounded on. board the
Richmond, on the night of March 1 14th, while at*
tempting the passage of the batteries at Port Hu dr
son. His .wound, although a severe one, was not,
at first considered mortal. He : .wa3 removed from
the It. to the steamboat Iberville, at Baton. Rouge,
which left the \evening of the lSth for this city.
During the trip, Dr'. McGowan, who had been with
him. all the tame,discovered that he was sinking fast,,
and could not possibly livelong. .
Dr. McCowan then informed Lieutenant Cum
mings of the painful fact, biit was astonishedat the,
calm, and beautiful, manner with which the intelli
gence .was received 5 he conversed in the. most cheer-.
ful manner of his approaching end., I have heard
several persons who saw.him. remark that his calm- .
ness was wonderful. 1 , He ivas entirely free from .
and.suffered : only from extreme weakness. After he
was first struck he spoke pleasantly to his frieiids of
his,wound, remarking;■ that he would never be,
ashamed of it, as it was an honorable one. “In
fact,” he said, “I think! shall be rather proud of it
than otherwise.” • •
After being told that he could not live, he said, to
oneof hisfriends, “Ihave professed .the faith of a
Christian, and I die strong in iny hope.”, Oh, Emma,
to how. few of us is given such strong faith ! : What
a powerhis religion must have had to support him.'.
thus gloiiqusly.while dying fajc away, from those who
made this earth-happy to.him! Lieutenant Cum-,
mings lived until'the Iberville reached the levee.
He died, on. board t and not at. the hospital, as the.
papers erroneously, stated. It was the,' intention of
his friends to take ;himrto Mrs. Captain Smith’s
house had he lived. He would not,’on any account,
have been taken to a hospital.. My aunt would have
htul.bim brought here if Captain Smith had not had
the prior claim. ‘ Dr. Shively, of . the, .Mississippi,
wlio.was .with. Lieutenant C.* when he drew his last.
breath. Bays he never saw such.a death,! He said he
noticed that his breath came at longer interyals, but
he could.not realize that death was really approach- .
ing.
Three minutes before he died he lifted his hand to
his mouth to.wipefrom.it a few v drQpßjfchat,had been
left upon his lips from a stimulantthat had just been
given him. D.r. S. wiped.hia mouth for him/ Lieut.
<J. looked at him gratefully and smilingly,.then closed
his eyes quietly, and, without, the slightest quivering
of a muscle, hia spirit passed away, and his sVui.was
:with,its Maker. He died if, Kq had
merely gone to,sleep. His boy. who had served .and
tendered him with the utmost fidelity, could' not ref
alize that his maßter was..realiy.gone. When..the
sad ' truth was Jorced upon!him,,by seeing DiyS.ten
derly. cover the lQyed and. familiar face, he knelt be
side the berth and burst>ini'o a paroxysm of; tears.
Everything .that the m,ost, tender friendship could
suggest was done to. mjike.Lieut. Cummings com
fortable. He. was, much! beloved! by
cers. Iknovv many of his friends, and they all unite
in their praise of him, asa Christian aiffi.agehtieman.
His loss has,been and the .greyest'symi'
pathy is expressed for,. hia.poor wife.;'
His body waß taken to, the Pensacofa, where it re
mained until-Tuesday.morning, r Marcji J7fchj then it
was escorted to Qhrist Church, The heafse.vWas
preceded by a company of marines-apd sailors.from
the, Pensacolaj. following the hearse, and .walking,
were Commodore Morris, Capt. Smith, and’,all the
naval officers then in the city. A, number, or/army
officersfollowed; then along line of carriages.' My
aunt and I went to the church, and. wqre.Quite near
the coffin, was placed* ip front of. the chancel,
wrapped in the flag for wb&h he died
hands had placed upon the cofpniflowei's—a.beaUti
iul wreath of white flowers and several bouquets.
Although he was far from,his kindred, warm hearts
were not-lacking to briag their feebfc tribute to r deolr
a hero’s coffin. . ' ‘ '
The services at tha churqhwere ofthe most solemn
character. A,s he was pot to! be buried' here, the
whole serviqe the dead was readatthechuroh.
jt' There were many friend® of the deceased present; :
but l, probably,. was the only person there who, had
ever even seen the poor young wife, who at that mo
ment little dreamed of .the gore, sore trial that
awaited her. I prayed earnestly that our Heavenly
Father, who had sent the blow, would eomforfc bier
as no earthly cpmftwte? can.
After leaving the church the body was to b.e taken
to a transport,* to be conveyed to the North. As
Iho coffin was again placed in tbe hearse, th.e band
were playing that : familiar 1 air, usually sung to the
words, u Jesps, lover of my soul.” The sad, solemn
luusic Forced the tears to many a stern face.
