THE MEWS.
"Or K advices from Europe are meagre, and con
fined mainly to expressions of foreign sentiment on
the American question. The Times intimates that
Mr. Adams is to have a brace of lawyers to advise
him on maritime law. Other journals do more jus
tice to Mr. Lincoln, and admit that he evinces a
Bincere and earnest desire to cultivate ’ the most
friendly relations with Great Britain, and avoid
giving just cause of offfcnce. It is now said
that the Princes of Wales and his bride will
mot visit Louis Napoleon, In Parliament, the
'Charleston affair was being disoussed in its sci
entific relations, and it was announced, amid loud
cheering, in the House of Commons that the Go
vernment had received a despatch from Lord Lyons
announcing that Mr. Seward had given directions
that the mails on board the Peterhof should be sent
to their destination unopened. In France the peo
ple were going through the forms of an election. The
Government was taking measures to prevent any
manifestation of liberal sentiment. In Italy
ings in favor of Poland were prohibited. The war
in Poland seemed to continue; the Poles claiming
victories. A portion of the Bussianggrmy has been
routed byitbree thousand Circassians', and the Grand
Hulre Michael narrowly escaped capture. Political
affairs were undecided, and a Paris correspondent
says that the conviction is gaining in Paris that an
avoidance of war with Kussia rests no longer with
England and Frenec, but with Russia, to decide.
Tun more complete arid reliable news which we
now receive from Havana, Ib, in general', unfavora
ble to the French army, whose repulse from Puebla
is confirmed. They are again at the Fortress San
-Zayier, which they won at the commencement of
the Biege. To this point they were driven hack by
the bayonet, and up to date of April 22d, the pro
jects of Forey were unpromising. Puebla was not
fully inverted by the French, and though they kept
up a continuous , bombardment, the Mexicans re
paired at once all breaches made, Jand assumed, in
various ways, the offensive. Of a battle fought at
Atlixco we have French and Mexican accounts,
both of which claim a victory. Puebla lies seventy
six miles east-southeast from the city of Mexico, and
has a population of seventy thousand. This is the
limit of the French advance in sixteen months. The
army of Comonfort was being largely reinforced,
while that of the French was decreasing with the
rigor and accidents of the siege.
We have little news of important credit from the
Army of the Potomac. A prominent rumor-in
Washington was that of a new raid from the rebels,
under Stuart, who had come as far as the Chain
Bridge, in return of compliment to General Stone
mania expedition upon Richmond. General Hooker,
it is aIBO reported, had designed to.recross the Rap
pahannock, but his order was countermanded by
General Halleck. This is given in explanation of
the report so widely circulated in the press, but may
reasonably be doubted. That General Lee’s army
has given Bign of new movement is another im
pression. The rebels assert a loss of only ten thou
sand ' in.the battle on the Rappahannock, of which
two thousand are prisoners, hut it is certain, from
our own data, that about four thousand rebels were
captured. The rebel lobs will, at least, equal our
own. .
The position'General Rosecrans now occupies,
•opposed to the army of Johnson and Bragg, is one
from which it will be hardly possible to drive him.
The rebel, papers are earnestly urging General
ZEragg to attack bis position, frankly alleging that
their granaries are empty, and subsistence must be
won. The rebel position, according to rebel autho
rity, rests on the right at McMinnville, and the line
extends thence westward to Manchester, Wartrace,
and Shelbyville to Columbia, forming the arc of
a large circle, while the rear extends as far south
as Elk ‘Springs. The left is sheltered by Buck river.
The Councils were in session yesterday. The
bill known as the Ocean Steamship Bill was defeat
ed, by a tie vote. The cause for the defeat was the
provision making the city, as it were, responsible
for the subscriptions made to the stock of this pri
vate corporation. After the defeat, on motion of
Mr, Lynd, the vote was reconsidered.' Petitions
were presented to Councils, protesting against the
storage of coal oil in the city. The Mayor vetoed
two ordinances of no Bpecial importance. A number
of gentlemen were elected Fort Wardens and Trus
tees of the Northern Liberties Gas Works.
. The Dry Tortugas, an extensive fortification,
which the Government has been so long construct
ing on Tortugaß Islands, near Key West, is the
place to .which Mr, Vallandigham is reported to
have been sentenced by a majority of his court mar
tial, the remainder favoring his banishment South.
It is eaid that Gen. Burnside approved the former,
and the President the latter. This is, of course,
mere report. What will be done to Yallandigham
cannot be definitely known until his suit for habeas
corpus is decided.

"We have little news from the Southwest, although
we may expect important intelligence daily. We
have an ambiguous despatch about a battle being
fought at Clinton, Alabama, which ends by-inform
us that after the fight Gen. Grant, “finding the
rebels reinforcing from Mobile aid Charleston, pru
dently retired towards the river, when he can, have
the co-opcration of the gunboats.” This last sentence
is unpleasant, a 3 the co-operation of gunboats is
generally a last expedient,
Governor Morton, of Indiana, requests the con
finement of eight hundred of the rebel prisoners in
the hands of the Government, as hostages for the ex
change of four hundred Alabamians in Colonel
Straight’s Slst Indiana regiment who were not pa

sent to Richmond for imprisonment or trial as rene

sented, were taken at the last battle.
Bv a letter from Fortress Monroe, we learn
that all remains quiet at Sufioik, no rebels appear
ing this side of the Blaokwater. The old rebel forti
fications are in course of demolition, and soon not a
vestige of them will remain.

Tile Polish Question.
The Polish question continues to excite
and agitate Europe. What Ireland was for
centuries to England, Poland lias been to
Russia ever since it passed under the yoke
■of the .Czars, in 1772, "when' the first parti-'
tion of that country was made by those
three diademed robbers, Cathatuxe of
Russia, Prederic of Prussia, and Mama
Theresa of Austria. It was in the power
of the first Napoleon to have restored na
tionality to Poland, hut he did not deem it
politic to effect it. When he sustained dis
astrous defeat in Russia, in 1812-13, he
found, too late, that his neglect had lost
him great support when most needed. The
Treaty of Vienna, in 1815, annexed the
■Duchy of Warsaw to Russia, with the ex
ception of the province of Posen; which
-was retained by Prussia. Austria retained
■Gallitzia, with the salt mines of Wieiioza.
The city o( Cracow was declared independ
■ ent, but was seized and annexed by Austria
:in 1840. The Emperor Alexander 1.,
-..taking the title of “ King of Poland,” com
-mencecl with conciliatory promises, and
. signed the constitutional charter at Warsaw,
:in December 1815. But this charter was
never carried into effect, and, particularly,
after Alexander's death, Poland was go
verned with terrible tyranny by the Vicb
;roy Constantine, who, it is charity to sav,
was the vrorst kind of a madmau. Hence
when Revolution stalked through Europe
in 1830, the Poles rushed to arms, hoping
to tiirow off the Russian yoke ; hut, after
ibattling bravely with the odds greatly against
ttliem, were defeated and again placed in
thrall. Until now, every subsequent effort
was a failure.
Prance, England, and Austria, have
severally and jointly remonstrated with the
Emperor Alexander H. upon the condi
tion of affairs in Poland, and it would ap
pear that they desire to have the provisions
of the Treaty of Vienna faithfully carried
put. The Czar, whose liberation -of the
serfs shows mingled boldness and humanity,
is probably not fully aware of tlie maimer
in wliicli Poland has been misgoverned in
liis-iiame. He is not likely to be pleased
with the interference of Foreign Powers in
the afiairs of his own empire. Should he
return a curt reply to their remonstrances, it
is considered probable that war may ensue.
"Who would he the belligerents ? On one
side, Russia would liaye the support of
Prussia, or rather of its Bing, for the Prus
sian people have great sympathy with the
Poles. On the other, England and France
would certainly act together, as they did ia
the Crimea, but we doubt whether Austria,
herself enriched by the spoliation of Poland,
would strike any decided blow against Rus
sia. The conduct of Austria in the last war
with Russia showed a desire to be neutral,
as far as possible. From the sympathy of
Italy a good deal might be expected. Vic
tor Emmanuel is understood to be willing
to act against Russia for Poland. A fourth
ally would be Charles XV. of Sweden,
who has some personal grounds for enmity
with the Czar, and who would probably be
glad, at such a crisis, to assert his right to
the province of Finland, now retained by
Russia, and who is said to have 100,000 sol
diers ready to take the field for such a pur
pose. This united array against Russia
would indeed be formidable.
Irish Emigration.
The curious correspondence between Earl
Russell, and Mr. C."F. Adams exhibits a
good deal of calm impertinence on the one
side, and dignified retort upon the other.
Lord Russell, with a pretty taste for lite
rature, has been so unfortunate as never to
have produced one readable or successful
work. He commenced nearly half a cen
tury ago, we believe, with a little volume,
entitled “ Essays and Sketches of Life and
Character; by a Gentleman who has left
his Lodgings,” which speedily descended
to the tomb of all the Capulets. Next came
a Spanish novel, with more than Spanish
indecency of plot and action, called “The
Nun of Arrica. ’ ’ After this, lie tried biogra
phy, political disquisition, the drama, his
tory, morals, and miscellanies, ending with
the “Diary, Memoirs, and Correspondence
of Thomas Moore, ” which he contrived to
render devoid of interest, by omitting the
most spicy personal anecdotes, and by emas
culating many that were retained. As a
polite letter-writer lie has been equally un
fortunate ; as witness bis foolish letter on
the Com Laws, in December, 1845, and his
missive to the Bishop of Durham,,in 1850,
“with reference to the usurpation of the
Pope of Rome,” in which he insulted six or
seven millions of Queen Victoria’s Roman
Catholic subjects, by glibly ridiculing the
ceremonials of their religious worship, by
calling them “ the mummeries of supersti
tion.”
Ever since lie lias been Foreign Minister
of England, Lord Bussell's avidity for
writing public epistles lias tremendously
increased. He contrives to keep most of
tbe ambassadors to'the Court of St. James
in perpetual hot water. Of course, our
minister has not escaped. Last November
he wrote to Mr. Adams that the Palmerston
Ministry bad been “ informed that bounty
money, of considerable amount, is offered
by tbe agents of tbe United States to en
courage British subjects to enlist.”’ Mr.
Adams instantly replied that he had neither
knowledge of nor belief in the information
referred to. After'nearly a month’s delay,
Lord Bussell informed Mr. Adams that
“further inquiries which have been insti
tuted respecting the alleged recruiting in
London for the United States seem to esta
blish that the reports to that effect, which
had reached her Majesty’s Government,-
were without foundation. ”
After having thus eaten his words, it
might have been hoped that Lord Bussell
would have exercised some caution in fu
ture. On the contrary, he discovered
another mare’s nest, and wrote to Mr.
Adams, on the 16th.of April, complaining
that, within a fortnight, 1,278 Irish emi
grants had sailed from Queenstown (the
Cove of Cork, ) to New York. He added,
“ the greater number, being strong, active
not deny" it. A certain number of these
men were militiamen from Cork and its
vicinity, and they informed .lb a
officer that they -wov'M "get from 250 to 300
- dollars bounty. It also appears that the
prospect of this large bounty has been held
-out to young men by general rumor through
out the country. It is further stated that
the friends of those persons in America are
paid so much for obtaining and bringing
them oyer to New York.” ' “
Mr. Adams replied in a manner that
ought to stop Lord Russell’s letter writing
for some time. He admitted the notorious
fact that a great many people, especially in
Ireland, had applied at the American lega
tion for free passages to the United States ;
that a large number of them hgd offered to
enlist in the service of the United States Go
vernment; that no doubt they were influ
enced, more or less, by the high bounties
offered in America; that the legation, and
other United States officers in Great Britain
and Ireland, had refused to listen to such
proposals, or make any engagement what
ever; and that the demand for labor in
America would partly explain the emigra
tion thither." He concluded in the follow
ing words : “There is no doubt of thd fact
of a scarcity of laborers in the United States.
I learn from private sources that the rates
of wages this season are very much ad
vanced. lam led to believe that these
causes, in addition to the alleged distress of
the population of Ireland, may explain the
phenomena of emigration to which your
lordship has been pleased to draw my at
tention.”
In thislast sentence lies the sharpness of
Mr. Adams’ reply to Lord Russell. He
i alludes to 1 ‘ the alleged distress’ ’ of the popu
lation of Ireland. It is more than “al
leged it is so painfully real that, if con
tinued, Ireland-will be depopulated. This
fact is patent to the whole of Europe. The
Paris Monde., of April 15, contains the fol
lowing extract from a letter written by the
Rev. M. Lx ons, of Skibbereen, in the county
of Cork, to Dr. Ltkcd, president of the -
Irish College; in Paris :
“Not only do tiie poor victims complaio, but the
most experienced observers admit that there exists
more real misery and less resources to relieve it than
during the year of the great famine (1847), except
that we have no epidemic. Men and women come
every day, tortured by hunger, to ask for the means
of subsistence. Their children are frequently two
days, without tasting food. Many of these poor
people are leaving for England, with the hope of
earning' a Jittie money, and the children endeavor to
keep possession of their cabin until some relief shall
arrive. When a man is ruined two others are in
volved in his ruin, because they have engaged them
selves for him. It requires three signatures to bor
row a sack of flour, and none of those in America m
have the means of paying. The people have eaten
the potatoes intended for seed, and many have sold
tneir cattle at half-prict. The Weather iff bad Wind
ram, and bail have rendered the turf, their onlv
firing, useless. Even the sick have no fire. All
they can do is to boil their wretchedlfood with dried;
weedß. The four winds of Heaven blow through
their miserable hovels, in which there are scarcely
any doors or windows. A bed not good enough for
a hog serves for an entire family. The greater num
ber of the population are in want of food, fire,,and
clothing. A meeting was held lately, for the pur
pose ofconsiderSng what means could be adopteibfor
relieving the distress. Among those who> attended
the meeting..was a landlord' who, some days pro- •
viously, had seized the goods of a poor tenant who
owed him six months’ rent. I saw the two cowb of
this poor man sold for 255. and 28s. each. In fact, :
nothing is-being done* and,, with the bad weather,
the impossibility of going out to fish, and the rent ,
due by the w>etched tenants, the miaery is dreadful.”’
If Lord Bussell read that letter, (and we 1
presume he did, as it was republished in The
Times,) he need not wonder at the tide of
emigration from hopeless misery and starva
tion in Ireland to plenty and comfort in. tiie
United States. British misgovemment has
ruined Ireland. Last February, when the
distressed condition of the Irish was dis
cussed in the House of Commons, Sir
Robert Peel, who declared that it was ex
aggerated, was sternly informed by Mr. Ma
guire, member for Dungarvon- and Mayor
of Cork, that if he did not treat this condi
tion of affairs as a reality, and legislate- for it
accordingly, one half the able-bodied men
and women of Ireland would seek a home
in the United States, ere the present year
was ended. Mr. Adams, in drawing Lord
Bussell’s attention to “ the alleged distress
of the population of Ireland,” gave him one
of the keenest thrusts in a vital part that this
diminutive lordling ever received.

The Wounded at the last Battle.
Dr. Warren Webster returned from, the- ene
my’s lines to Falmouth last night. He reports our
wounded as doing well. A pontoon bridge has been
laid over at United Stateaford for the transporta
tion of wounded. It will be remembered that-Mr,
■Webster remained at Choneellorvllle to attend to
those who were in too dangerous a condition to ad
mit of removal.
The prohibition to sutlers transporting supplies to
the Army of the Fotomac, issued on the 29th of
April, has been revoked.
National Banks.
Hugh McCulloch, the Comptroller of the Cur
rency, has decided that associations organizing
under the act to provide a national currency, &c.,
shall be designated as national banks, and not as
national banking associations. A circular of ex
plicit instructions will be issued for the government
of those desiring to- organize under the law, and the
applications already made will be returned, in
order that they may be presented in regular and
proper form.
Samuel L. Howard, formerly of Leroy, New
York, lately in charge of the note-cutting room,
has been appointed Deputy Comptroller of the Cur
rency.
The treasury is now being abundantly supplied
with legal-tender notes, received'in exchange for
bonds, and is confining its preparation of notes to
those of the smallest denomination. -
Tile Exportation of Horses and. Mules.
Information has been received at the War Depart
ment that sundry persons are purchasing horses and
mules within the United States for exportation,
contrary to the Executive order of November 21,
1862. To the end that during the present war the
military resources of this Government should not
be withdrawn from the country, the commandants of
departments are, by official order, directed to pro
hibit the purchase and sale of all horses and mules
Within .the limits of their respective commands, to
be exported from the United States, and take and
appropriate to the use of the Government any horses,
mules, or live stock designed for exportation, causing
the value thereof to be appraised and reported to
the Quartermaster General; and enjoined
vigorously to enforce the Executive order of No
vember 21, 1862, prohibiting the exportation of arms,
ammunition, and munitions of war.. Claims for
property taken under this order are required to be
presented to the Quartermaster General for adjust
ment.
Removal of the Chief Justice of Utah.
The removal of Judge lOnnet, as Chief Justice
of Utah (his successor being John Titus, of Penn
sylvania), is regarded here as indicative of a less
forbearing course towards the Mormons than has
herefore been practised. Complaints have been nu
merous against that functionary and the change
made from motives of public policy.
Discharged Volunteers.
Thousands of discharged volunteers, their term of
service having expired, passed through to Baltimore,
homeward-bound, on Tuesday, and regiments, yes
terday and to-day, returning from the Army of the
Potomac, paraded our streets. The men generally
appear to be in a healthy condition, and many of
them,' by their own statements, say their bodily con
dition has been strengthened by their two-years’ or
nine-months’ service. Their powers of physical en
durance has been put to the test by carrying about
fifty pounds weight, musket, rations, ammunition,
blanket, Sco., while on the march previous to the
late battle.
In addition to the seizure under the confiscation
act of the real and personal property of Dr. Corne
lius Botle and of Charles o. Vali.aait, of this
city, orders have been given to the occupant of Dr.
Garnett’s house and others to pay no rent to any
of the agents acting for the rebel absentees.
Pardon*
John Orcutt Carpenter, of Kentucky, who
was convicted of treason, has been pardoned by the
President. The exercise of the Executive clemency
has been procured through the intervention of hiß
friends, on the ground that he has repented of his
crime, voluntarily abandoned the service of the
rebels, and returned to allegiance, to live at peace
as a loyal and law-abiding citizen.
Naval*
' The Navy Department harf received information
that the 7 'steamship Cherokee was captured off
Charleston while endeavoring to run the blockade.
Rebel Prisoners.
: The rebel prisoners still remaining here in custody
are, under proper regulations,-permitted to be sup
plied with whatever may contribute to their per
sonal comfort.
3L hundred and sixty rebel prisoners have signified
their willingness to take the oath of ' allegiance to
the United Stateß Government.

JAMES B. FRY, Provost Marshal Gen.
Hon. Jolin. J. Crittenden in Support of tile
Government.
Hon. John J. Crittenden, of Kentucky, made an
eloquent speech in Lexington, Kentucky, recently,
in support of the war for the Union, and the Ad
ministration. The following glowing extract was
the conclusion:
Let us fight through it as beat we can. The enemy
challenges us; lie ia in our WAy; he stands beforezis,
delying ua with all the boldness of the Philistines of
, V * defying you Kentuckians. andpro
'S?-!? 1111 ® *l*® determination to make you his spoil,
will you "hesitate .what course to: pursue'? X don’t
make war upon the South because I hate the South,
it is not from any personal feeling against the
South, but it is because I condemn their conduct and
hate the principles they are endeavoring to carry
out. I don’t love the South the less, but X love my
country more. My hostility is the result of princi
pie, which is the same, morning, noon, and evening—
m the morning of the year, and at the noon and
evening of every year. . Themere politician says he
is angry with the South; but there is nothing reli
able in anger; it is passion, and may change any
hour or day, and be against you when you think it
will be tor you.
The nation will get through its difficulties. We
have the power and the wilt to do it, and we shall
accomplish it. .That great Providence that has made
us the standard-bearer of freedom, will not permit
our Government .to go down and leave the world in
gloom. I have faith: “there-33 a Divinity above
that shapes all our ends,and Bewill shape the des
tiny of our nation. Its career has only just begun..
and Providence does not permit a 1 half-finished work
of such momentous proportions to fail and be aban
doned; and I trust in God that we, the people, do
not intend it. Our hearts must be filled with the
noble determination to maintain fch® integrity of our
Government, while we glow greater and greater,
mightier and mightier, richer in civilization, grander
in prosperity, until our glory shall cover the whole
land.
But .you must prepare to fight the rebellion
nircugh to the last, no matter whether England or
France, or any other Power, make common cause
with them or not. We mußt fight them all, if need
be; can whip them all, in the defence or
right. I don’t want to extend the boundaries of this
war; God knows Ido not. I have tried to make
peace, as long as peace was consistent - with national
safety. Now, I believe war alone can save us, and
war it mußt be. England is not ourrfriendin this
contest. I care not how Boftly_she-may condole
with us on the calamities of war. Let me tell
you this solemn truth: both. ISngland and
France want your country divided; both of them
are witnesses to you how important it is to you
that it shall not be divided. They want it divided,
m order to weaken you, that, by weakening, they
may conquer you. They want to Europeanize all
America. France is trying to do it now in a portion
ol the continent. But .they, are ;& little-afraid. There
are a million of freemen in arms, -and a million
more, ready to spring to the defence of the nation
against a foreign loe. [A voice, witb»a well-known
brogue—“ And all Ireland is ready tood” Great and
continued applause.] That is true.. Let England
and France makea hostile movemenfrand the hearts
of our people will be roused. It witt.no longer be a
contest between brethren. The Bight of a foreign
foe will kindle a fire of patriotism, that will rouse
the nation to a just sense of its danger ♦ and we will
beat oft' the combined forces as easily as*we now
hold the rebels in check.
And when our erriDg brethren shall come back,
when this war is over, we will endeavor, as a matter
ol policy, and forhumanity’s sake, to treat it as a
family feud. We will make reconciliation as far as
possible, We will endeavor to- forgive and forget,
on all sides, the wounds and disasters that have
fallen upon us. And this nation will take a new
start. We shall be a wiser people.. We shall know
what it is to rebel. We wilt know that it is no holi
day no mere beating of drums, and firin®
of blaDk cartridges. Our Southern brethren
seemed ,to think that there was no more harm in
rebellion than in going to church. It was merely
a turning to the right or to. the left. But they have
found out their mistakes They now know what it-.

THE PRESS.—PHILADELPHIA.’ FRIDAY. MAY 15. 186 SJ r i
ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
Rumors of a Rtbd Cavalry Raid-
The latest current rumors from Washington and
the army? Bays the Evening Pos( t are to tills effect;
Fears of a rebel cavalry raid upon the capital ore
entertained in Washington, and for some days the
planks of the Chain Bridge have been removed, and
a full battery slao stationed at the Aqueduct Bridge'.
On Sunday last, a rebel cavalry force made a
dash through oct? lines and up to Chain Bridge; but
we cannot learn that the enterprise wot attended'
with any advantages. This, $? true, is evidently an
net of mere bravado, in return for Stoneiaan’a ex
pkrit in riding into Richmond.
The report that General Hooker liad'recrossed the
Rappahannock is explained by the* statement that
such wab G eneral Hooker’s wish And design, l>u3his
order was countermanded: by General Halleck.
WO SIGNS OF A- MOVEMENT.
Washington, May 14.—Gentlemen arriving from-,
the Rappahannock last night, who are certainly iiv
a position to speak advisedly, say there are no indi
cations of a movement to the south side of that river
by our army. .
Complaints are made or the offensive odors rising
from the-dead horses and offal in- the neighborhood
of the army ; but measures have been taken to 1 re
move the nuisances, having in view the sanitary
condition of the army.
The N. y. Express has the following dißpatch:
Washington, May 14.—Surgeon Warren Web
ster, of the regular army, and Inspector of the Po*
tomfle army, for whose safety apprehensions have
been expressed, returned to camp at Falmouth last
evening, bringing off .all our wounded who-were
living.
He remained in the enemy’s lineß eight days, at>
tending to the collection and care of the suffering,,
after the army retired.
. General Stoneman iB at the headquarters of the'
Anny of the Potomac, and Col. Killpatrick has re
ceived orders to report tiiere.
General Lee has detained all the nurses and Bur
geons who accompanied the ambulance-trains across*
the fords, and has also placed gunß in position at
Banks’and United States fords, from which fact it
is supposed that he intends to assume the offensive,
and cross the river for an attack upon, our^prees.
Fortress Monroe, May 13.—Two buildings, for
merly hotels, Macon and Ocean Houses, have been
used for* some time as hospitals, bearing their re
spective names. They have just been' consolidated,
and will be known from this timers the “ Cuyler
General Hospital,” and under the superintendence
of Dr. McKay, formerly of the Chesapeake Hospital
at Hampton.
The steamer Georgian®, Capt. Pearson, has re
turned to Fortress Moneoe, having been thoroughly
repaired. For the present she will take the place of
the Thomas A. Morgan, running betweenithis place
and Yorktown.
The British frigate Rinaldo arrived here this after
noon, and reports having left Charleston last Mon
day, at three o’clock P. M.
General Grant’s .Advance*-—Reinforce-
. Cairo, May 14.—The Hon.. Mr. Washburne left
the extreme front on Friday, and from him we learn
that General Grant’s advance was within eighteen
miles of Edwards’ station, which is eighteen miles
east of Vicksburg, Two divisions of General Sher
man’s corps had reached Grand Gulf, and General
McArthur’s was crossing. ; The army was in excel
lent condition.
t?: Later*
Caiko, May 14. —'The very latest dates from Gen.
Grant’s army are to Thursday. At that time it was
eighteen miles from Grand Gulf, encamped near the
Big Black river. We had not yet possession of any
part of the railroad between Vicksburg and Jack
son. There is probably no truth in the reported bat
tle at Clinton.
General Grant is receiving heavy reinforcements.
A new overland road for troops and trains has been
made from Young’s Point to the river below, which
is only eight miles long, and greatly expedites the
forwarding ofmen and supplies.
Ten negro regiments have been formed, and Gen.
Thomas, who is just from Memphis, thinks'that
ten more can be formed. .
CiiiCiio'ATij May 14, —A despatch to the Commer
cial, dated Somerset, Ky., May 13, says no doubt
exists that the enemy is in force across the Cumber
land. Morgan, with the commands of Wheeler and
Forrest, iB at Monticello. All conversation between
pickets has been stopped, and affairs wear a stirring
aspect. '•. ■ ,
General Hunter on Colored Soldiers,
Boston, May 14.—Major General Hunter writes
o Governor Andrew, under date of Port Royal, May
4th, a letter., strongly complimentary of the colored
regiments inhis department. He speaks of them as
hardy, brave, parent, and obedient, and says that
with the brigade of liberated; slaves already in the
field, and a few regiments of intelligent colored men
from the North, he would place them in a condition
to make extensive excursions upon the mainland
through the most-densely populated slave regions;
and from an expedition of this character, he doubts
not that most beneficial results would arise. * •
DEPARTMENT. OF THE GULF,

steeples of Charleston and the flags of,the forts in

creek which separates them, and'miniature vessels,
freighted with tobacco have been often sent to our
Bide, with requests for reciprocal cargoes of coffee,

was to be again attacked, till their irony elicited
questions relative to the prices of butter; flour,

mem to change the conversation. “Say, Yankee,”
was shouted across, one day, “hain’t you most
of this war 1” “ No- air- ee. ” responded the Federal
picket, “It’sad—d lie!” insisted the rebel; “you’re
just as sick oi it as we are, and you know itThe
Confederates have or-ected batteries and other
Works on the southeasterly end of Morris Island
where negroes and others can be seen shovelling
daily.: 3
Ci:nci:m,ati, Hay 14.— I The news from General
Grant’s army is conflicting, and adds little to what
is already known. There is no doubt, that a severe
battle was fought at Clinton, and Bowen was de
eateck and compelled to fall back on Jackson, and
£ i-i tlle rebels reinforcing from
Mobile amf Charleston, prudently retired towards
the river, where he can have the co-operation of the
gunboats.
ViAS* i!ro despatch states that Gen. Grant, informed
that the rebels at Jackson had been reinforced, had
ia)]cn back to the Black river to await a correspond
ing reinforcement of his army. At last accounts
troops were daily leaving the vicinity of Vicksburg
for Grant’s army, and by this time he has, no doubt,
™ sufficiently strengthened to justify a resumption
of tlie offensive. Our gunboats have conveyed se
veral transports up the Big Black river, and the
army is in that way amply provisioned.
A correspondent of the Boston Journal, writin
froni Murfreesboro, says that the position of Gene
ral Eoeecrans is one of great strength, from which
he Cannot possibly be driven. It is thought that
the rebels will. be compelled soon to attack the
lederal army m hopes to fled subsistence for their
iorces. .The rebel papers in that quarter are strongly
urging to attack our positions, frankly al
itging as their justifleation for this course that their
granaries and storehouses are now empty, and no
mrther subsistence can be furnished his army. The
Chattanooga Sentinel says “Bragg has ordered all
the wagons and extra baggage to the rear,” which
certainly looks as if he is to accedeto the urgent ap
peals of the press. “We only wait for him,” says
the Journal correspondent,'“confident in a more
glorious victory than has yet been gained during the
war.”

in Bight, and the officer went aboard his vessel,
which then steamed towards the ship. It was calm
all day, and atTo’clock- they, saw the ship on fire.
The steamer was- bark rigged, anefc mounted seven
guns. She had a-shield’figure-head, and was un
doubtedly the pirate Alabama. -

The New York Historical. Society, whose large
wealth enables it to do those- things with a certain
style, purposes to have a commemoration on the
20th May, ©f- the two hundredth birthday of their
first printer, William Bradford, by whom, in fact,
printing was .introduced into our Middle Colonies
generally. Bradford was a native of Leicestershire,
England, and came to this city in 1681, with William
Penn. He printed i& this city as early aB 1687, but
in 1693 wentto New York, where he was appointed
Crown Printer, an office which he held for fifty
years, and in whah he grew rich. He was also
Koyal j&rinter.to flic-province of New Jersey. 2ia
fact, h* was. the Epeat printer, a eentury and a quar
ter ago, of, the Di&ldle Colonise generally. Special
interest is given, to his history as he is tiovo known—
though it was, formerly universally supposed that
Cotton the Independent minister of Bcoton,
was-entitied 'to that honor—-to have first proposed
tha-printing -the Scriptures, with the Book of
Common Prayer, oh this oentinent. A fae senile of

The Times' city article says-itis understood that the
United States Government has resolved to send an agent
to England, versed iuniaritimeand international law,
to co-operate with Mr. Adams in London in considera
tion of the various quostions-uow arising, or likely to
arise, on those pointsbetween the two countries. The
object ia to enable such questions,.in all possible cases,
to be settled promptly, instead of being subjects of tedi
ous correspondence.
The Times has remarks-on the subject of maritime
rights, and-say*: “Unfavorable as the doctrines regard
ing the rights of belligerents appear for our merchants
and ship-owners in tbe present position of affairs, there
is an unanimous feeling as to the* propriety'of faith
fully adhering to them. If America is to have two
codes for use while ,we limit ourselves to one, tho
precedent must prove fatal to ns. Again, as regards
-the Peterbof case, our merchants* feei that it would'
be rash, without further proof; to allow a principle
to go forth that might, under spoeial circumstances,
cause our commerce'to be harassed,and oven suspended,
in every part of ..the world. It is-wished, moreover,
that whatever may be the decision, wo* are uow to adopt
and consecrate, there should, if possible, be something
like an explicit understanding that the section of poll
ticang in tiiis-country, who are at .present most vigilant’
in insisting upon every advantage being given to the
Federal?, are to estimate distinotfyttoe permanent cha
racter of the precedents to be established, and they
must not at a future time,, under altered circum
stances. demand that,, in the interests of peace, we
shall surrender our own-and accept any adverse con
struction which may then seem amicable. Unless a
majority of the public organs- and speakers in America
are utterly untrustworthy, it is only a question of time,
onlya year or two,- more or loss,.when England will
have to call into play whatever weapons she may pos
sess; and although it is announced that the people of the
United States will not then stand upon nice legal re
strictions, it will not be consonant frith our traditions or
practice to shift our own views of right, or allow them
to be set aside. *
Earl Bussell, in reply to Lord Chelmsford, said he un

Washington Government, it-would be their duty to con
sider what answer they should return to the communi

Earl Hardwicke called attention to the fortifications at
Spitluad, and pointed out that the Charleston affair loft
the value of fortresses against ships exactly as it had al

fceveral other speakers alluded to the Charleston- affair

the Government could not at present recommence work
at Spithead, having no funds for that object.

Mr. Layard said he had much satisfaction in stating

directions that the mails on board the Ptterhof should
be sent to their destination unopened. [Cheers ]
Jr tJie House of Lords, on the 30ih of April, Earl Rus
sell said that as the question of the Pefcernof and the de
tention of Her Majesty’s mails had been the subject of
discussion, it might be convenient that he should state
the substance of the intimations he had received from
Lord Lyons. Lord Lyons siated that in answers to his
application Mr. Seward had informed him that the Ame
rican Government had determined uot to release the
vessel and cargo, but to send them before a prize court.
With regard to the mails, in conformity to the letter of
the blst of October. they would be forwarded to their
destination. Mr. Seward stated that, in. any similar
case, the same course would be pursued until some
agreement was arrived at upon the subject. The law of
nations did not appear to have laid down any precise
and clear rule with regard to the practice, which was
somewhat novel, of sending mail bags by private ships.
Therefore, Mr. Seward was anxious to make communi
cation', to her Majesty’s Government on the subject. It
was not stated what that communication would be, and
therefore it would become a matter for subsequent con
sideration , •
On the first instantthere was no quorum m tli9 House

The arrangements making for thtf prompt delive*
ries of these immense Bales of bondfe J arc nearly com*
pletfed by Hie Treasury Department; and while the
deiay is totally unavoidable subsc3tbers hava' the
satisfaction of receiving six per cent, interest oc J the
amounts subscribed' as* soon as received by any su
thorfred agent*,"East Or West.
An error of the printer yesterday le-3 us to statfe
that thaf interest on these bonds is five per cent. It'
is well IsnoW’n'by the"community that it is a six per
cent, loaa, payable in twenty years, but redeemable
at the option* of the G&vdrament, in coin, after five
years. The interest repayable at the Mini Tor New
York Sub*Treasury, the - first days of May and No
vember, in gold,' of whiClv subscribers, during'the
past six'mouths, had tangible evidence on the firßt
inßtant. As wc l stated, yesterday, there is no fact
more worthy of commendation, or of interest'tb the
world at large, than these-positive and endisring
evidences of devotion by & loyal people to sfheir

Ihe Ambulance Kitchen.—A new
aimy cooking-apparatus has been invented'amil na
tented, and yesterday attracted some- attention in
several of the principal quarters of this city. The
mam features embrace welb arranged provision
wagon, a moveable cooking range and baking oven,
ambulance.accommodations;for four men, a* niedi
cine and instrument chest, and’ a dining and ampu
tatmg table. The arrangements for accommodating
the sick.and wounded with- provisions} and' wliJh all
necessary assistance, are-at'once-effective-and* con
stant. Every detail is attended to with a minute
ness which seems to have overlookedmothing,. and
to have anticipated everything. This loeometive
cooking apparatus is known as “Pinner’s Ambu
lance Kitchen,” and will certainly form an indispen
sable to the provisional a like- character
already made.
Rust Over.—At Germantown road? and
Otter streets, a hose carriage was on. Wednesday
drajijgea along upon the sidewalk, and amannamed
Christian Schlitz was run over* and. seriously, 'in

to bis residence in Rachel street, below Poplar
The dangers consequent upon the running oft fire
apparatus on sidewalks, increase with the frequency
ot the practice. Those who have control of the de
partments regulating such affairs-should certainly
see that in future such occurrences are provided
against. * .

strong. Money very plenty at’easy rates.
The subscription to the loan amounted fo !
two million dollars up tv four o'clock P. M. BcfCslx

The NewYorki?tienttt£r Post of to-day says:
The market opened strong. Government securities arc
slightly in less demand,, and the quotations of IS3L regis
tered receded to 107#. Gold certificate?? and seven-thir
ties, however, are Arm. at yesterday’s highest rates.
After the first session the market became somewhat
lower, and the following were the current quotations;

New York Central 120%, Port Wayne 51%@02, Prairie
dn Cbien 69, Chicßgo and Northwestern 37%, Cantou
56%, Cumberland preferred 25%@29%, and Michigan
Southern &1%.
The sudden decline in Michigan Southern has attracted
some attention, as, In view of the excellent condition of
the road, the efficient management of the general busi
ness, and the rapidly increasing traffic both in passen
gers and in freight, a dividend is confidently anticipated.

Provi§ioa Market, May 13,
The market continues dull and irregular, and it is diffl 1
cult to give quotaijons other l than the rites asked, and
those do not represent the rates which would probably
toe accepted in many Cu-se.s, did » demand exist.
The best we can do, however* Is to give the asking
rates. Mess Pork is offered at $9 to 10 for old, the latter
rate for the best city brands; and for new at $12.50 to- $l4,
the latter for standard city, though were is some city
canb,e had at $13.50; but holders of aew are generally
prim, differ the belief that the whole amount packed
this season willnotbemoro than will be needed by the-
Knmpsold at piices rangvn-g- from-$5 to 1
$9, tlrt price varying according to quality, it hrnext to'
niiposanile'to self country-packed mess pork a/t anything
like oo? quotations, either new or old. Bnlk Shoulders
are offered at 4e; Sides at 4% to sc, and flam 3 at 6c.
t Shouldertrwould not bring over 3&c. .About 1,200,000 tbs
heavy Siawsold'af sc,' and 6,ooopieces of Hams at £5:90:
There h 2» been tout mtle or nothing done in Bacon. .
Small sales' of Shoulders .at 4&e, of Sides at 6c,and ; of
plain l% and JB^c—the latter rate when can
vassed. A g4od r demand'- for' sugar-cured, with sales of
630 tierces, m lots, at 2» i to Kef, Which is a slight
YOifere. . The sfeckof sugar-cured willbe 1 exhausted be
fore theiaeasotr is out. Lard'hs* 1 not'changed, but has
been seld at 93fef. Yesterday 500 tierces sold at 9>£c.
whiet? was consitfered a good< price. Keg may be quoted
at Io»]£ci- tout we d& not- liesr ofa ss-ie during the week.
We should have stated that owing So'the advance in
gold, consequent upon the supposed disaster to the Go
vernment-army at Fittieilcksbttfg, in t&eibrepcJrt ofthe
week,holders of provisions wera firmer, aud^ pending
this barreiTconntry-phcked Sfess Pork were
sold at -st3, and Lard could not be bought belowOlic;
but all wSb lo3t durln'gihe close, aud the
market, during the last three or foes* days of the week,
