The British Situation.
Tlie next mail steamer from England
will probably bring the “speech from the
Throne,” read at the opening of the Par
liamentary session of ISG4, on the fourth of
this month. That this same State-paper
■was not read t»y the Queen in person has
caused much regret, and even a little indig
nation among Victoria's “loving sub
jects,” vrlio complain of the continued seclu
sion in -which her Majesty chooses -to re-
The Times , satirical but courtly, has
Tcncaiedly intimated that the Queen should
no longer remain in the almost total seclu
sion into -which she cast herself, on her hus
band’s death, more than two years ago;
;.ut the radical journals, more plain-spoken,
declare that her grief should not interfere
■with the performance of her duty, and—
glancing hack, perhaps, at Prince Alwbrt’s
fondness for money- saying, which enabled
him to leave to his family an accumulation
of 15,000,000 hint that such retirement
is verv favorable to economy, and that the
liberal allowance, ("close upon $2,000,000
per annum, ) paid to the Queen, ought to be
reduced, if her Majesty so persistently de
clines spending any but a small portion of
it. Remonstrances and insinuations such as
these are not likely to induce the Queen to
change her mode of lite. As for her public
'duty, which Chiefly consists in sactioning
the policy of her ministers and in affixing
her signature to documents, it is not pre
tended that she neglected it, even in her
earliest and extremest sorrow.* The com
plaint that she has injured the trade of Lon
don, by keeping aloof from the limited
goviety of her Court in that city, loses its
foiccwlien the fact exists that, during-the
last year, at least, the Prince and Princess
cl Woles performed her part, probably by
her desire, in extending hospitality to the
aristocracy and gentry whom, in happier
hov.rs, the Queen used to entertain. A
s.!rcmy Court is a great damper to trade, for
tLa luxuries of the unproductive supply the
CC ill forts of the productive classes. It is not
toe much to say that the expenditure of five
wounds,- on halls, concerts, or dinners, on
to'- -a:t of royalty in England causes an
ottt’ay of one hundred times that amount by
the noble and the wealthy who constitute the
“ fashionable” circle of London. As to the
rumor that Queen Victoria would probably
abdicate, in favor of the Prince of Wales,
' nothing can be more absurd, rifle is not
the sort of woman who would resign the
crown, which she has worn since 1837, nor
would she exhibit her w'onted good sense,
by casting the responsibility of reigning
U’iOii so young a person as the Prince of
Wales.
Except on points of foreign policy, the
Palmerston not likely to have
much trouble in Parliament, this session.
It is not the English custom to allow whis- |
pers of intended measures to circulate, on 1
authority, before official announcement is :
made. But it is believed that a eonsidera- i
hie reduction of taxation will be proposed j
by Mr. Gladstone, and that this will .be j
accompanied by a reduction of the national j
expenditure, though not to the amount j
desired by John Bright and Richard i
Cobhen. ;
The Ministerial majority in the House of j
Commons has not been much diminished by
the Parliamentary changes which have
taken place during the recess. Upon fo
reign affairs the Opposition proper—that is,
the remainder of the Tory party—are more
likely to vote with Palmerston than
against him. This veteran, now in his
eightieth year, will probably have an easier
time than usual, this session. ■
There is a rumor that Lord Russell has
tendered his resignation, and that Lord Pal
merston hoped to be able to retain him in
the Ministry. At this moment, seeing his
late disposition to act with some degree of
fairness to this country, Lord Bussell's
quitting office would be more felt here than
in England. _
Count Gurovvski —“ Ishmaelite, Icono- j
clast, Gorgon,” as some cotemporary of
genius calls Mm—is out in another year’s
“Diary of the War.” This is one of the
most spirited books which it can be the for
tune of any observer of the war to read.
In the arbitrary and all-engrossing patri
otism of Count Gubowski, no one escapes
censure, from the President down. It is
wonderful how far the feelings of this virtu
ous moral tyrant take him. Everybody is
anathematized and doomed, except the great
people which supports Presidents and Con
gresses. The President himself could not,
however, feel unkindly towards this rough
watch-dog of a foreigner, who seems to he
honest enough to declare Ms dislike of
everybody. He is one remove or so from
that established antagonist of Government,
Mr. Wendell Phillips ; but we can feel
no bitterness towards these severe and
somewhat eccentric critics. The Govern-
ment, strong enough to have weathered the
' experience of an unprecedented revolution,
and t-o.have conducted the nation to safety,
may feel amused at this honest cynicism.
But powers superior to the Government,
the nation, and aH its critics, are leading us
securely and slowly way of success.
Hot the Abolitionists, or the Democrats, or
the Conservatives, brought about or are re
sponsible for the crisis we have triumphant
ly passed, and Mr. Wendell Phillips,
like many otkers, was a very, very small
agent. The gnat of one man’s criticism
must not overrate itself, and our honest
Count Growler is ridiculous when he tears
Ms hair and curses Ms obesity.
MM. Thiers and Jules Favbe have
again opposed the Imperial Government of
Prance, in two speeches of great effect,
upon the Mexican question. The insight;
learning, and force displayed in these
speeches must have "done much towards
convincing. the people of Prance, if not
the Emperor’s administration, of the un
fairness, uselessness,' and profligacy of the
Mexican enterprise. As usual, M. Favbe
ai gues from the moral standpoint of poli
tics, and M. Thiers, like an old statesman,
labors to convince from prudence and self
-inteiest—both are honest and sensible.
One point in H. TnrEßs’ speech is espe
cially notable. “ The North Americans,”
he says, “so long as Prance does not re
cognize or favor the Confederates, will do
nothing against the Archduke Maximilian;
but, when the war is over, 100,000 adven
turers, who have served in the American
armies, will cross the Rio del Norte and in
vade Mexico.”
A New Department has been proposed
in Congress, to be called “ The Department
of Industry,” aud to include Bureaus for
Agriculture, Freedmen’s Affairs, Mines and
Minerals, and Immigration. The war has
crowded a superabundance of labor upon
the Government, and such a department
will find constant work. For tlie Bureau of
Mines and Minerals, and Immigration, the
wants of the future necessitate increased
energy, and the Industrial Department will
find an ample field in laboring for thednte
rests of peace, while the nation prosecutes
the war. The condition of the Freedmen
makes some speedy action imperative.
Mr. Bright has delivered another good
speech before his constituency of Birming
ham, in wMch he stiff urges forward his
progressive atfd republican ideas with re
gard to suffrage and the tenure of the soil,
stiff quoting America for example. These
words are not a little interesting, as suggest
ing the true feelings of the intelligent com
moners of England towards the monarchi
cal System :
“ I don’t see that we ate Interested because the
Frinoe of Wales has married the daughter of the
Xing of Denmark. I think nothing would be more
unfortunate, and that nothing could be more intole
rable, than the fact, while the memoera of the royal
family of England are not allowed to many from
-Encliab citizenship, thaV marrying abroad, they
Sunild therefore embroil Eagliahmeu with
Afforelim countries. I oanimagine nothing more
■nude to make an Englishman doubt whether royal
nan law P l ®*",?'kern
thaathat any rack nouiee ehonld be taken,”
The Italian Plot against the life of the
l’mperor Napoleon is growing more doubt
iui as a fact, if not more strange as a ro
mance. After Mamisi’s emphatic denial,
the English people have ceased to suspect
that he had anything to do with the conspi
racy ; but all the French papers carefully ab
stain from printing his justification. It was
a part of the story that the conspiracy was
planned at Lugano, where Signor Gileco
and his companions were said to have met
Mazzini. But it results from inquiry that
Mazzini was not in Lugano, and did not
meet the conspirators. The world may
keep this among its mysteries. It is impos
sible to believe a word that the conspirators
have said —it is difficult to suppose that the
Emperor’s life was at all in danger. Gita:-
co and his friends spoke as if they were paid
for it, and the “conspiracy,” such as it
was, appears to have been intended for die
ruin of Mazzini and the salvation of La
rOLEON.
The SO-Inch. Gun.
On another page an extensive report will
he found in reference to the 20-inch Rodman
gun, cast at the Fort Pitt Foundry, Pitts
burg, ou Thursday noon. This is the largest
gun ever made, and the 20-inch Rodman
w hen completed may fairly be said to eclipse
the world. The very latest despatches as
sure us that everything is progressing favor
ably. We refer the reader to the report for
fuller satisfaction.

made from late copies of the Worth Carolina papers
received here:
qhe Raleigh Progress says: “The present Con
cress is bent on fastening a military despotism on
the people of these Confederate States, and «-he peo

obedience to God, ’ and the people of North (J.rollna

whole State turned into a military camp. We want
to achieve independence over our common enemy,
but we are not willing to become the vassals or

X2SdDPORTA.3SrT NEWS,
A REBEL FLEET m THE CHINESE WATERS.
TAe Danger to San Francisco.
Nrw York, Eeb. 12.—A letter from the Tribune’s
London correspondent contain* some information
on a point of importance whioh has as yet attracted
little or no attention.
The news in a nutshell is that at this moment
there is a fleet of six rebel war steamers in the
Chinese waters. These vessels were fitted out in
England, under Sherraid Osborne, an English naval
captain, and were reunited among the officers and
men of her Britannic Majesty’s navy. They were
utder contract to the Chinese Government, but
when they reaohed China, a disagreement arote be
tween Osborne and the Chinese authorities, and the
vessels were not delivered, but thrown on the mai>
ket, and sold at auction—Osborne, officers, crews,
guns, and all—to Jefferson Davis. It is not unna
turally intimated that Osborne had some slight ex
pectation of reaching this result when he left Eng
land. Funds for the purchase are said to have been
provided In part by the sale or the rebel rams in the
Clyde, which Earl Russell embargoed. There are
now but few American ships in East Indian wa
fers, and it is thought probable that this fleet, in
company with the other rebel pirates, may be des
tined to attacklSan Ffaccisoo. In order to show
Aheir respect for British neutrality, the British
crew take an oath of naturalization as citizens of
the Confederacy when the flag changes. If, there
fore, San Francisco should happen to be burned and
plundered, John Bull washes his hands of all re
sponslbility. '

Mr. Everett on East Tennessee.
At the meeting on Wednesday evening) in Boston,
to aid the suffering people of East Tennessee, Mr.
Edward Everett gave the following picturesque and
eloquent description of East Tennessee and the
Tennessee river:
r’hat river, fellow-citizens, is in some respects
one of the most remarkable on the continent. Its I
northern affluents rise in the State of Virginia, but, |
as if to read a lesson of Union in the very face of I
the soil—as if to prop the fabric of the Union by the I
eternal buttresses or the hills, instead of flowing to
the Atlantic like the other rivers of Virginia, it |
gathers up the waters of its tributary streams, and, I
connecting Virginia and the Uarolinas with East I
Tennessee, flows southward down to the north- 1
eastern coiner of Georgia. , .... I
There, after kissing the feet of the glorious hills I
of Chattanooga, instead of flowing to the Gulf, its |
seeming natural direction, it coquets with Northern |
Alabama, breaka into the Muscle Shoals, plants De- I
extur at their head, and Florence at their feet, and I
then, sweeping back to its native North, traverses
the entire Width of Tennessee a second time, seem
ingly running up hill, for while it is flowing north- I
ward, the Mississippi parallel to it, and at no great
distance is rolling its floods southward —enters the
State of Kentucky, and empties at last into the 1
Ohio, fifty miles above it* junction with the Missis- I
sippi, thus binding seven States in its silver circuit,
and connecting them all with the great central basin I
of the continent. , • I
The soil of Eastern Tennessee is rioh, the moun
tains are filled with coal and almost every variety
of ore: their slopes bubble with mineral spinga; the
climate is temperate and healthful: the. territory I
mainly divided into farms of a moderate size, for the
most part tilled by frugal, Industrious men, who
own the soil, which yields them its well-earned
abundance. In no part of the State are there so
few slaves, in none is there a more substantial I
population; in no part of the South is the slave in- I
:erest so feeble. East Tennessee greatly resembles I
the lower ranges and fertile valleys of Switzerland, |
and it has been often called the American Switzer
land. It Jb divided into thirty counties, and its I
population does not, I think, fall short of 300,000
Souls. My friend, Colonel Taylor, nods assent.
But this grand valley, with the hills that enclose I
it possesses an interest for us far beyoed that which I
attaches to their , geographical features, merely as
such. It is one of the most important links in that
chain of valley and mountain which traverses the
entire North American continent, from northeast to ]
southwest, separating the streams which flow into
the Atlantic from those which seek the St. Law
rence, the Ohio, and the Mississippi. Forcing its
way down into the heart of the region whose allu
visl plalng are devoted to the culture of tobacco,
cotton, nee, and sugar, by slave-labor, this ridge oi
highlands, with, the valleys enclosed lu them, from
the time you leave the Slate of Pennsylvania, be*
gins to assume the highest political importance, iu
reference to the present stupendous struggle. Ex
tending to the southwest as far as Northern Ala
bama, this noble mountain tract, and the valleys en
closed in its parallel and transverse ridges, is, by the
character of its climate, toil, and natural produce
tions, the natural ally of the North. Here, if no*
where else, we may truly say, with the German
poet:
Auf den Bergen Ist Freyhe t; der Hanch d«r Grafts
Steigbtnicht hinauf, in die Minea Lufie.
That means:
On the mountains is Freedom : the breath of the vales
Rises not up to the pure mountain gales.
The Crawford county Record says: 44 The people
of Mr. Covode’s district should have compelled him
to allow his name to be used iu the contest of 1862.
The district which he had for eight years represent
ed, although strongly Democratic when he entered
upon the first canvass, gaining each succeeding run,
had become so thoroughly Republican that our
frit cds were of the opinion that any Republican
could cany it. Other men aspired, and Mr. Covode
retired. The result we all too well know. The no
torious Dawson was elected.”
—The Copperhead leaders have hardly yet reoov*
end from the shock of General Gantt’s speeoh at
Harrisburg. After his capture at Island No. SO,
Gantt wsb brought North as a prisoner of war, and
then it was that prominent Democrats of Pennsyl
vania assured him that If the rebels held out they
would be successful, for the Democrats would arrest

German Opera.—“ Tannhauicr" ia a great
work. There i» nothing in the music that, ia our
opinion, justifles-the severe otitioism it has received,
though we can easily understand bow such a man
as Liszt should be the champion of Wagner. The
opera is grand, solemri, and impressive. It is I
in charsotcr unlike any musio we have heard: and if I
it possesses mannerisms they are those of the author,
and not of any school or clique. The orchestra- 1
tion is often Bublime, continually changing, always
intelligent and sympathetic. The performance was
the beet of the season, Madame .Tohannsen sing
ilg charmingly, and Frederic! looking so much like
Tenus that Xannhouser «»n hardly be pardoned for ]
leaving her. The tenor role is one of the very finest
in ail music, and Himmer sang it very effectively.
Hermanns confirmed the favorable impression he
had made, and his voice certainly adds greatly to
ihe «valuo of the company. Stelneoke we never
heard sing so well.
Many of thegreat pajssgea in "Tannhauser” were
enthusiastically applauded, and we see no reason
why it should not be sung every night next week.
It must, of course, be repeated. The impression
made by its first performance is entirely in favor of
ils great and increasing popularity.
On Monday, Spohr’s 11 Jeatonda” will be sung.
Ghbstnut-stbeet Theatre —“The Tiosetof-
Heave Man” will again be presented this evening,
with its well-ehoscn east, excellent eoenery, and su
perior stage management. This very popular play
of Tom Tayloi’s has, for another term, proved a
great success, and its interest cannot soon die out.
Walnut-street Theatre. —To-night Miss Lu
cille Western, after an extended and successful ca
reer in the newest sensational drama, will make her
anncarance in the standard and foroible melo-drama
of i-Luoretia Borgia.” This will be followed by
the capital play Of “ Don Cscsar de B»z»n.”
Zograuhicon.— After this evening, the Zographi
con entertainment will be withdrawn. We have so
fiequently called attention to it, beauty and moral
bearing that a meie reference is all that is necessary
now. ,

A Iloueunoi-o Blessing. —lf it were in our power
to dispense the greatest possible mundane blessing
to every household in the lend, we could not do so
more effectually than by supplying every family with
a Grover & Baber Sewing Machine. In other words,
the higheat good that we could have it in our power
to bestow would be to give every family an order on
the agent of the Grover & Bakor Sewing Maohlne
Company, TOO Chestnut street,vto get one of those
inimitable instruments. The next best thing that
we can do is, to advise all who are about purchasing
sewing machines, to give the Grover A Baker the
preiereuce over all othera.
Lubricating Oils.— We have already had occa
sion to spesk approvingly of the excellent Lubri
cating Oils sold by Messrs. Hulburt Sc Co., No. 240
Aroh street, as being in many respects superior to
any others in use, while their cost is moderate.
They have been tested, and are now in use by most
of our elty railroads, and are found to answer better
than any other lubricator in the world. They ought
to be universally adopted. Meccrc, Hulburt & Co.’s
Signal Olio, Carriage Oils, Sewing Machine Oils,
and Oils for illuminating purposes, are also unsur
passed by any others in existence, and their prices
are unusually low-
A PLBA 808 THE WIFE AND I.ITTLE ONES.—
We print this tender precaution with the special
View Of reminding everybody in general, and mar
ried men in particular, that one of the most ‘graceful
things that they can do to day, and one which will
secure them the biggest return in the way of happy
faces at the smallest outlay, is to go to the popular
Confectionery establishment of Messrs E. G. Whit
man & Co., No. 318 Chesnut street, below Fourth,
and select a budget of their delicious, pure, and
healthful preparations. It will make you doubly
welcome to the “ loved ones at home.” Think of it.
Gbnat Babsains in Winter Clothing.—
Messrs. O. Somers & Son, No. 6-26 Chestnut street,
under Jayne’s Hall, are now selling off their splen.
did stock of fine fashionable Winter Clothiog, at
greatly reduced prices, preparatory to opening their
spring stock. All persons wishing to obtain ele
gant winter suits, cheaper than they are likely to be
again until “ after the war,” ought to embrace this
opportunity.
Preparing for a Struggle.— The indications
now are that the rebels are preparing for a desperate
Struggle in the spring. The C. S. A. is now in the
agonies of death, and its throes of dissolution will,
U no doubt, be terrible. The connection between this
and the faot that W. W. Alter, 936 North Ninth
street, sells the best and cheapest coal, we will ex
plain at another time.
Great Beduotion in Prices,

Also,
Bioh Furs of all kinds.
Bleb Furs of all kinds.
In anticipation of the olose of the season, we ar*
now prepared to make a large concession from for
mer prices on all our ctook.
J. W. Proctor A Co.,
The Paris Cloak and Fur Emporium,
920 Chestnut street.
New Pictures bt Gutekunst.— Mr. F. Gate,
kun »t, 704 and 706 Arch street, has just issued fine
cartes and Imperial Photographs of Major General
Hanoock and Brigadier General Tyndale; also, very
superior pictures (in card and one-dollar sizes) of
the late eminent jcrlter and lecturer, Wm. Make
peace Thackeray, copies of which are now lor sale
at bis counters.
Tin: Finest Oohpkctioks lit the "Would.—Mr.
A. L. Vansant bat really elevated the Confectionery
business Into an art. HU goods are not only the
finest, richest, and purest made, but they are the
moßt beautiful and tempting in every particular.
Hl« choice domestic and foreign frulte are alco very
popular.
Thb .New Photo- Mihiatcrb.— Messrs. Wen
deroth & Taylor, 912,914, and 916 Cheitnut etreet,
are now executing the new style of picture (which
we think destined to unusual popularity), entitled
the “ PJu>fo.Mlniature.” For artistic merit this pic
ture excels anything that Photography has hither
to produced. The specimens at their galleries are
much admired by the boat judges of art.
AH Elegant Stock of Osmimmihi’s Fun
mishiho Goons, embraelDg everything necessary in
that line for a man of taste to wear, will be found
at George Grant’s, 610 Chestnut street, His " Prize-
Medal” Shirt, invented by J. F. Taggart, is the Shirt
of the age.
Spirit Ea fpimgs.—The town has been agitated
for some days past with the performances of a party
of spirit-rappers, who have done numerous strange
things, among which-there Is a mysterious taking
off of the coats of mediums. We know nothing of
these mysterious doings; bat we are ll In” on patting
on coats, and to this end we recommend our readers
to visit the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Hoekhill
ft Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605-Chestnut street, above
Sixth.
A btatibtioal wbitbb remarks that the inven
tion of the sewing machine has enabled one woman
to sew as mush as a hundred could sew by hand a
century ago, but one woman now demand! as much
clothing as a hundred did then, consequently, there
is no gain. Men, on the contrary, have lessarticlcs;
but their improvement ia In their make and beauty,
as any one can testify by visiting {Charles Stokes sc
Co.’s one-price Clothing store, under the Conti
nental. _____
Bbbel Fashions.— A friend of ours, who has
just escaped from the rebel oapltal, charged with
complicity In the “Jeff Davie assassination ” plot,
aays he “ left hia wife In a linsey-woolsey gown,
and his children clothed with horse blankets; for
shoes they sewed up old bagging or any convenient
waste rags; cloths and woolen goods were not to be
had at any price, and there were no shoes in the
market.” The contrast between the prosperous and
happy United States- and the miserable Secesh Is as
great as that presented by tbe elegant and durable
Clothing gotten up at the palatial store of Granville
Stokes, No. 60ft Chestnut street, and the horse
blanket attire Of Babeldom.
Thb Parabola. Spectacles are unsurpassed by
any other glasses now In use. They are the -dis
covery of a celebrated French philosopher, reduced
to practice, however, by an American. Those who
have used the Parabolas speak of them In the high
est terms. They assist tbe vision, while they do not
impair it—a laot which oannot be said in reference
to other lenses. For sale only by E. Borhek, Opti
cian, No. 402 Chestnut street. *
