The Lain Of the Alexandra.
The appeal against the decision which
the jury made in the case of the Alexandra,
on the confessedly illegal direction of Chief
Baron PoLLocx, who tried the caSe, has
been dismissed by the House of Lords (that
is, by half a dozen law-lords), on the ground
that the special code manufactured, at the
instance of the said Chief Baron, to cover
his own previous blunder and carry the case
before the Court of Exchequer Chamber,
was informally and improperly made. Here
ends this noted case. The Alexandra goes
back to her owners. It is at once signifi
cant and important that in a similar case,
that of a vessel called The Pampero, the
defendants acknowledged the corn," and
consented to waive defence to the suit of the I
Crown, on being allowed possession of the
seized vessel, at the end of two years. It
is thus evident that they dreaded the provi.
sions of the Foreign Enlistment Act, espe
cially as it was impossible, after all that has
been written and spoken on the subject,
- that any other British judge could tread in
the erratic steps of Chiet Baron PoLLocK.
MITER FROM "OtTWONAL,”
WAsanweros, April 22, 1864
It is the - greatest mistake to' suppose that
the perpetuity of this Union is to be decided
by the disasters of battle ; and I desire most
earnestly to protest against this dangerous
theory. It is true that a great defeat sad
dens the heart, and, for a time, depreciates
the public securities; but no such cause as
ours can be expected permanently to 'win
without encountering fearful reverses. "It
is the rough brake that virtue must go
through." I think I understand the lee/-
ings of my countrymen and countrywomen
when I utter this opinion. I know right
well how anxious they are for peace. I
know hoW they mourn over the loss of
friends, and the di e disasters of the war;
and I know, too, how frequently they ex
claim : " Would this conflict were over
Why cannot this war be stopped? Why do
not our public men interpose and settle
these difficulties ?" The answer is a sad and
plain one : the only way to peace is by the path
made by successful war against the rebellion.
The most timid man or woman who prays
that the war may end, must at last consent to
this stern proposition Peace upon the basis
of the recognition of the bouthern. Con
federacy would be an immediate division
and partition of the American Union. The
very preliminaries to such a degrading treaty
would be simply preliminaries to a 'rouges
and bloodier war. We must conquer slavery,
or slavery will conquer us. I disdain to re
peat the arguments of the early Fathers of
the Republic, or of the great men who lived
in the generation that closed with the Com
promise measures, against such an idea as
of a peaceful disunion—tor their admoni
tions should be familiar to all loyal men and
women—but I present to them the fresher
fact: Can they consent to that which is a
personal degradation, a personal outrage,
and a galling and overwhelming sense of
inferiority ? There is nothing so terrible to
an individual as the loss of his good name.
A soldier dismissed in dishonor from the ser
vice, be be never so low, struggles to obtain
vindication, and, tailing in that, becomes a
vagrant and a vagabond. The vilest in the
deepest depths of shame envies the virtuous
and the good. What, then, of a great Da
thin whose cause is righteous, driven to a
tlishonemble surrender ? It would be a
nation filled with a people consenting to
their humiliation ; an aggregate of confessed
subordination to a weak and desperate
aristocracy. As it is of individuals, so it is
of communities. 11 we cannot conquer an
honorable peace in this generation, we must
conquer it in the next. Even the worst op
ponents of the war, recently so ready to con
sent to any terms—even the N. Y. World,
even Fernando Wood—now insist that they
are against peace on the basis of recognis
lion and separation. This is their present
position, and they are driven to assume it
because the reverse theory contemplates an
impossible contingency. Remember that
the Southern leaders are fighting for their
own lives ; and remember, also, that their
hold upon the masses in the seceded States
is like the hold of those ancient chiefs who
managed their followers with fanatical and
despotic sway ; and remember, too, that
this feeling is fed by the hope of foreign
aid and comfort. France is about to estab
lish itself upon the soil of Mexico, and Beg
land is so doubtful a friend that her present
ministry will probably retain power only by
concession to Southern slavery. There has
been such an intense and bitter hatred and
envy of th i t progress and prosp:rity of the
- United States among foreign nations, with
the exception of Russia, that loyal America
can look for no favor or countenance from
them. We must depend upon ourselves.
Our fortress is in our own unity, patriotism,
and selSreliance. Now more than ever
must we learn to depend upon ourselves.
Now more than ever must we learn the
great practical lesson of expecting no assist
ance from foreign countries. Blessed be
yond any other portion of the human race,
the bloody war that is on us must be con
tinued toasecure this blessed condition to
our posterity. We must not only consent
to be taxed, but we men ask to be taxed.
Who can doubt that our people are ready
for taxation, as he reads over the marvellous
voluntary contributions of our people to the
sick and wounded soldiers of the Republic,
and to the families of those who have died
in this holy cause ? We must insist upon a
high and prohibitory tariff, and, if necessary,
a close and inexorable embargo. We must
have a sound National currency, receivable
and convertible in Maine and Louisiana; and
those who stand in the way of this and
other great measures must realize that in
• giving a few of their personal advantages
they do not give a millionth part that the
brave men do who are fighting for the per
petuity of the Union. In a word, we'must
semember that nearly all the loyal States
have been, as yet, untouched by the bloody
hoof of the slave rebellion. They are, at
this writing, safer and more comfortable,
with all that they have lost, than any other
portion of God's footatool. What is asked
of them and their people is so little and
what they may lose if they refuse to give it
is se incalculable, that I will not pause to
doubt that they intend to give all that is
expected from them. OCCASIONAL.

" WASHINGTON, April 22.—The city is alive with
'military rumors, conjectures, and speculations, of
which the greater portion have probably no founds..
tion in fact; while the publication of the facts
known to be true would not be proper at this time.
WASHINGTON, April 22.—General Grant left here
for the front to-day, and General Burnside went by
special boat to Fortress Monroe. It is understood
that the recent developments of the intentions of
the enemy render an early movement of the Army
of the Potomac highly probable. Such an event
will be in accordance with the expressed desire of
Mr. Lincoln and other leading men here. Without
going into details, Big enough to say that the spring
hall not been idled away, and that preparations for
the impending campaign have been equal to the min.
pretence of the work to be accomplished. There is
little doubt that the next thirty days Vila bring
about a great change of some kind in military
affairs.
The recent order of Gen. Grant, banialdng sutlers
from the army, rids it of over twenty eight hundred
supernumeraries.
The War Department has given orders for an ad
dition of 16,000 beds to the present hospital accom
modations here. All patients able to bear removal
are to be sent North at once.
The report gains credence here among military
men that Lee has sent part of hie army into the
Shenandoah Valley, with a view of compelling
Grant to divide his army by lending a force in pur
suit.
Nnw Toni, April 22—Current rumors on the
street report both Lee's and blcadeis armies in mo
tion, mancauvring for the advantage preliminary to
a general battle. It is thought that Lee will again
attempt to cross the Potomac. If mo, he will pro
bably encounter the Val= armies in a different
manner from the former occasions.

Men t requiring hotel and tavern...keepers etc.. to take
out a special sicense at a charge of twenty-five dollars
for selling liquor to be t rank on the premises.
Mr. STSTkIIIg. of Pennsylvania. said the present law
did not require the taking out of two licenses. Tavern
gapers are heavily taxed by this bill, the lisense being
increased according to the yearly rental, and scarcely a
respectable hotel could escape with less than a thousand
dollars tax.
Mr. FRANS, of New York. seld this question of hotel
licensee bad repeatedly been before the Rouse. bat it bad
been so mystified and twisted up that there was no clear
tin eretanding of the subject. He trusted the defect
would now be renieoied, cad that the amstalwent of the
