The history and performances of thts noble ship, which waa built in Philadelphia, must be pecu liar pride and Interest to our citizens, and, as she returned here about a week since, it may not be considered Inappropriate for ns to give an outline of her career since she was fitted* out at our Nary Yard, In 1862. It has been furnished to ua by an officer who has served In her. She was so well, con structed, that although' no ship of any nation hM endured such fire as' she passed through at various times, yet she lies at this moment, dismantled at the Navy Yard, not in any respect materially In’ juted, but ready for an engagement to-morrow Ifshd were recommissioned. ; In the early autumn of 1862, under command o! Commodore Turner, she was ordered to the mouth* of the James river, to await the expected coming of* the rebel iron-clad.. “Richmond,” where she r«-‘j malned Until January 11,1863. Prom thence she| was ordered to Port Royal to prepare for the attack f upon Charleston, A few days after her arrival at; Port Royal, the rebel rams : made an attaisk upon | the blockade forces off Charleston. Commodore; Tfirner was ordered Immediately to that point, to j take np his position with her. In command of the > squadron off that city. Great anxiety wss felt by him as to her ability to hold on through the fierce gales which prevail there at that season, and great' was his satisfaction and joy when he found she minded as little the great waves of the At: ! antlc breaking over her bow as she did the rebel projectiles spending themselves upon, her Iron sides. She rode out every gale,; from' the Ist of Pebrnary till the latter part of July, with the most perfect success, rising .gracefully and calmly, from each billow as it rolled over her, not unlike the motions and actions of a sea turtle float ing near the surface. On the memorable' 7th or April, the day of the attack-upon Port Sumpter, ; she received the concentrated fire of the forts multi-' piled on either side of the approach to Charleston. Por two hours and a hair a storm of the. heaviest projectiles rained upon her devoted sides and deokj suoh as, in the words of "General Hunter,a spectator: outside, “ the world never saw.” Of the nine ves sels which joined In the attack (one being sunk—the Keokuk), every one came out of the fight materially Crippled. Yet this noble oia craft was ready for a fight" the next day, as she had been upon the first, having, received no material Injury, excepting In her wood: work, whloh did not In the least impair her fighting condition. Her deoks had been protected by a ear pet of green raw-hides and sand bags, upon : whloh the shower of shot fell harmless, glancing off wher ever they struok, only ripping up the bags,land, scattering the sand. In the following.month of July she again took up her place Inside the bar; under Commodore Rowan, when-the writer was not on board of her; but we hsd'Continued accounts of-her engaging the batte rles'day after day, passing through each Urns a most: terrific fire. . . . During the last summer she was ordered to Phlla. delphiato.be docked,undehe sailed hence to Fortress Monroe, to take partinthe attack upon Fort Fisher, commanded by Commodore Radford. In the offl olaldespatohes wo have a full account of her per formances on this occasion, taking up-her position, some thousand yards from the fort, and holding It 'during the, entire days and nightsofthe attaok, pouring Hi a heavy fire throughout that eventful. occasion, and receiving the oonttnuous flre of the fortinreturn. . : She is how lying at the Navy Yard, and Is well worth a visit lrom the curious, to examine her hun dreds of soars, whloh appear in every case as mere Indentations, with scarce a fracture of-her armor, anywhere. -s We are, obliged to make this article short, and will conclnde It by an allusion to the effect of her appearance upon spectators falling in with her on the ooean. Without mast or spar, moving along like some great spur of a mountain torn away, lrom its base, she was regarded with''awe and amaze ment. They-gpemed to gaze upon her as something supernatural,’or as some huge fortress whloh had broken away, from Its moorings. Sailing around or close to her they would Inquire In tones of eonater-' nation, “In the name or. God, sir, what la that?” One Inquirer said he thought it must be the devil let loose upon the ocean. ; She was built by the Messrs, Cramp, the ma chinery by-the Messrs. Merrick. . Her tonnage Is 3,609,;. Her battery consists of fourteen 11-lnoh Dahl grbhs and two 160-pound rifles on the main deck, and two 50-pound Parrotts on the spar deok.-.' - ~ A Bbbbl Editob’s IksahMt.—The correspond ent of the Boston Journal, from -Elohmond, gift's a curious written daguerreotype of the opinions of a Richmond editor.

The occasion has been thought to warrant a direction to me to ask, with earnestness, of her Majoßty’s Government that it should adopt suoh measures as may be effectual to prevent the prepara tion, equipment, and outfit of any farther naval ex 'ipdditton lrom British shores to make war against tidUnlted States.

But he Is charged with the duty of main talDißg the belligerent rights of the United States oh thohlgh seas as they are recognized by the law of -nations against alp lawless coihblhattons and refietenoe, He, therefore; trusts that her Majesty’s Government will consider the subject In a just and.'candid spirit, and himself as asking from It ln his case only what, if the situation or the par ties -were reversed, would have been eonseded to any similar request-based on equally cogent con siderations.” ' eussei.i.’s bbpx.v. Earl Russell Inreply, dated Sept. 28,1861, says: “In the first place it is undoubtedly true that the Alabama was* partly fitted out In a British port. Bnijas soon asevidencewas obtained that acts had heennommlttcd with regard to that vessel In vio lation of a British statute, orders were sent to seize her,;.fhe, however, escaped from Britlsß.waters, in ■a state of half equipment, under a fraudulent pre tence of making a trial Grip. Her equipment was sdterwardß completed In a foreignport, neither Bri tish nor American, and a Commission from the so styled Oohfedefate.Govenunent was there, delivered to Capt. Semrnes, her oommander, himself an Ame rican citizen. - '' Secondly, I have to stale that It. appears to her majesty’s Government that the commander of the private British yacht, the .Deerhound, In saving .Item drownlng tome of. the officers and orew of the = Alabama, alter that vessel had sunk, performed a praiseworthy act of humanity, to whloh, moreover, he had been exhorted by.the commander of the Kearshrge, to which' ‘vCSßerthe Deerhound had, lit the first Instance, gone, In order to offer to tee Kearaarge any assistance whloh, after her action with the Alabama, she might stand in need of; and it appears, further, to her Majesty’s Government that, under all the circumstances of theoase, Mr. Lancaster was not under any obligation deliver to the eapt&in .of the Kearsarge the officers and men whom he had rescued from the waves. "But, however that may be with regard to the demand made by you bj Instructions from your Go vernment that ttese officers.and-men should now be delivered np to the Government of the’ United States as esoaped prisoners of war, her Majesty’s Government would beg leave to observe that there Isno obligation to deliver up to a belligerent pri soners of war who may have escaped from the pow er of such belligerent and may have taken rerage within the territory of such neutral. Therefore, even if her Majest}’* Government had any power •bylaw to comply with the above mentioned dev mand, her Majesty's Government could not do so without being guilty or a violation of the duties of hospitality. “In point of fact, however, her Majesty’s Go vernment have no lawful power to arrest and dell-: vet up the persons In question. They have been guilty of no oifenoe against the laws of England, and they have committed no aot which could bring them within the provisions of the treaty between Great Britain and the United States : for the mu tual surrender of offenders, and her Majesty’s Go vernment are, therefore, entirely without any legal means by which; even If. they wished to do so, they could comply with your above mentioned demand. “Thirdly, with regard,to the statement mode to the United States Government, that British autho rities afford pecuniary assistance or supplies, or furnish regular payment of wages to persons form ing the esew of the Alabama, for the purpose of en abling them more effectually to carry on hostile operations against the United States, I have to say that her Majesty’s Government have no knowledge whatever of any snch circumstances, and do not believe that there Is any foundation for such state ments. Private Individuals may very possibly have contributed to relieve the necessities of the persons In question, but with .the pecuniary contributions of private individuals her Majesty’s Government have on power to Interfere. . “I beg further to assure you that her Majesty’s Government have adopted, and will continue to adopt, to the utmost of their lawful power, such measures as maybe effective to prevent the pro? S nation, equipment, and outfit of any naval expe tlon from British shores to make war against the United States. ■ “The detention and seizure of the Birkenhead iron-dads, and the discussion in Parliament on that subject, suffice to show that If complete prevention in this respset has not been attained, all that the Govenapent of this free country can do to stop such expeditions has been fully pertormed. “Lastly, in expressing the regret of her Majesty’s Government that they should find themselves un able to comply with any application which the Go vernment of the United States may have thought themselves entitled to make, I cannot refrain Bom observing that her Majesty’s Government have been ’ far more successful' in preventing breaches of neu trality, withregard to the fitting out of cruisers to take part In the eivU war In Worth America, than the Government of the United States were to pre venting the fitting out of ships of war to aid the South American republics to their revolt against Spain, which. Power then stood to the position of a central authority resisting Insurrection.’’ > MB.*ADAMS’ SECOND LBTTBB. Mr. Adams, in reply to Earl Bussell, November 10, 1804, begs to recall his lordship’s attention to the original allegation to his note, which was to the effect that Capt. Semmes and his companions, after being saved from drownlngby the intervention of a British subject, did not reach the limits of this King dom as a relugee claiming the rights of hospitality, so muchas to the position of a belligerent determined to make his escape fromcapturo or death tb a neu tral territory useful to himself and his cause by toi- • tiating further hostile proceedings against his ene my in the very place where he olalmed hospitality. “ I have,” he says, “ the strongest reasonsfor believ ing that the time which. has passed. whilst I have had the honor to eonduot this correspondence with vour lordship has been[spent by the enemies of the United Stateß, British and native-born, in fitting out another vessel from this Kingdom, to do the same sort of ptratloal work which the Ala bama did until she was sent to the bottom, which vessel has sailed from here to an agreed plaoe on the ocean, when the same sort ofequlpment and armament which was- placed on the Alabama has been placed on board of her by another Brltlsh vessel sent from this' Kingdom for the purpose, and where were transferred Captain Semmes and his. companions, the persons saved by tbe alleged humanity of Mr. Lancaster, for the ulti mate object of continuing a war of destruction of life and property against the people of the United States. Whether 1 am correct or not to these statements, as yet founded only on Information of a private character, time will not be long In esta blishing. Should' it prove to be so, your lord ship will perhaps pardon me if I persist In main taining the opinion that neither was the act of Mr. Lancaster, in saving Captain Semmes from cap ture, humane, nor Is the aot of her Majesty’s Go-, vejwnent to protecting him to be viewed as wholly within the limits of that sort of hospitality which It wonld value to any other nation if practiced towards the people ol Great Britain. " Your lordship is pleased farther to. observe to ward the close ol your note, that her Majesty’s Go vernment have been far more successful to prevent ing breaches of neutrality, with regard to the fitting out of cruisers to this war, than the Government of the United States were to preventing the fitting out of ships to aid the South American republics to their revolt against Spain. “ Were it expedient, at this late day, to enter neon an examination of the relative merit of the two Go vernments to the two very widely different stages of their condition In acquitting themselvoß of their obligations of neutrality under olroumstances of difficulty, I am.not aware that anyresult which '•might be arrived-at would have an effect to mate rially vary ing the views that shonld be taken of the eborcoomlsgs of either. Very fortunately, lam saved'the necessity of farther discussion of a by pointing oat to your lordship a circumstance which seems to have entirely escaped your attention. What ever may have been the deficiencies of the United .Stales in the instance alluded to, compensation therefor has been made to Spain, and her full and free release has been 'given under the sanction of her hand to a solemn treaty- Wheneverefier Majesty’s Government shall acknowledge itself prepared to perfect the parallel instance the example may he cited against the United States, but not until then. “I have now the honor to inform your lordship, that, after a careful consideration of your note of the S«th of September, my Government thinks it-: self entitled to adhere to the several positions it has heretofore assumed In regard to the patolul transac tion In question, as these have been made known through me .to-her Majesty’s Government. lam further directed.to expresayon the President’s eon eern at thefaUrire, thus'far, of tuSfesftorts that have: been made to avert a mlsnnderstauutog between the two countries upon a point whiohithe American people have canee to regard ob seriously affeoting their national honor and dignity.” BO BRGLISH LAW NOB TBB BBTOBN ON DH- SBBTBBB, It appears from the great mass of correspondence on various questions, that Earl Bussell says there is at) law ip 19150 in England by whjqh sailors who deserteiVfi»n!i the United States ship Iroquois, at Dover, conlO lbj giveu up.

Mr. Seward, In a letter to Mr, Adams, dated Oc tober at, 1884, says: “It Is my-dnty to Invite, through you, the serious attention ofher Majesty’s Government to the instances which, unfortunately, seem to be multiplying, In whloh the British pos sessions in our neighborhood, both continental and issnlar, have been made. bsußes for hostile proceed ings of the insurgents against this country. The motives for suoh proceedings have-undoubtedly been, not a conviction that material damage would result directly from the hostile acts of the Insurgents, but a hope that a just sense of national dignity ana self preservation on our. part might induce us to re sent the toleration of tho British authorities, and ultimately, perhapß, lead that Government to take part with the Insurgents as an open and declared enemy of the Unites States. The Insufficiency of the British Neutrality sot, and of the warnings of the Queen's proclamation, to arrest the causes of complaint referred to, were anticipated early In the existing struggle, and that Government was asked to apply a remedy by parsing an act more stringent In Its character—snoh as ours of the 10th of March, 1888, which was occasioned by a similar condition of affairs. This request has not been compiled with, though its reasonableness and necessity have been Shown by subsequent events.” The Secretary, after giving the particulars ap pertaining to. the seizure by Insurgents: of the steamers Chesapeake, the Pnllo Parsons, mid the island- Queen,: Ac., says: “ The primary objeot In capturing these steamers was confessedly to release the Insurgent officers confined at-JoHnson’slsland. There Is reason to beHeve that-the conspiracy was organized and set In motion by prominent Insur gents, who have, for some time past; been residing' m Canada for such- purposes, Indeed, this Depart ment ban proor tbat Mr. Jacob Thompson has ac knowledged-: that he. was oommfsslohedTand pro vided with funds to carry teem into effect, and had interviews with oonsplcnons members of the gang, just before the steamers were captured. “ It is obvious that at the time el the Informahar rangcment between the two Governments oi April, 181 T, limiting their naval force on the lakes, a con dition of things like the present could scarcely have been anticipated.' The object of that arrangement was to prevent either party fromkeeplngln commis sion the considerable naval foroe which they hail both employed In that quarter during the war then recently dosed. II peace was expected to continue, the force was an unnecessary burden to both par ties ; but, on tee contrary, if war should suddenly be renewed, one or tee other might, in anticipation of teat event, have clandestinely or otherwise so augmented its force as to Insure to it a dangerous advantage. - “ Believing that these were the views entertained at the time this arrangement was entered Into, and teat neither tee United States nor Great Britain expected to relinquish teelr right to self-defenoe In tee event of a'clvll war in tee territories of either, by the limitation referred to by the Secretary of the Treasury, as you will see from tee correspondence, a copy of whloh Is enclosed, this Government has chartered two propellers, one on Lake Brie and tee other on Lake Ontario, for the purpose of checking and suppressing depredations on our trade and territory, in that region, similar to those above mentioned. “I had just prepared the foregoing statement of the transaetion on Lake Erie, when information or a new and equally desperate outrage on another part-of the border reached this Department. A band, said to consist of twenty-five desperate men, clandestinely armed, crossed the frontier and pro ceeded to several parties, by stage coaeb, to St. Albans, Vermont, In the customary way ol travel lers. At a concerted time they raised a fleece of terror to that peaceful town, ana broke into board ing-houses ana other buildings and carried off large' amounts of treasure, said to be two hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars, together with other valuable property. As soon as the people recovered from their surprise they arose and hotly pursued the felons, who sought safety by returning on'atolen horses across the frontier Into Canada.- The Cana dian municipal agents seem to have co-operated with the pursuers from Vermont with alacrity and diligence. Twelve of the robbers-were arrested, stripped of them plunder, and taken Into custody by toe Canadian authorities. It Is also understood that a considerable part of the recovered property was promptly restored to Its owners. Hete the im perfect accounts which I have received of this trans action end. , T ■ ' • , “I have requested J. Hume Burnley, Esq, her Majesty’s charge d’affaires here, that the felons maybe detained until,alter having obtained the exact Information which Is essential, I shall have addressed to the British Government a demand for the surrender of the offenders, In conformity with the provisions for extradition: contained to the Ashburton treaty. The subject has been discussed to a friendly Bplrit between myself and Mr. Burn ley, who, has received telegraphic advloes from Lord Lyons, who yet remains In New York. I give you a copy of the note which I addressed to Mr. Burnley on the 2lst instant, and also a copy of a note I afterwards received from him In answer to my verbal request that Lord Monk, the Governor General, shonld be [advised to detain tbe offenders for extradition. “-I wlßh yonto bring this transaction also to the notice of Earl Bussell, and say to him that, taken to connection with events of the same character which have occurred oh the Canadian frontier, It is regarded here as deserving prompt and decisive proceedings on the part of her Majesty’s Govern ment, to order to prevent the danger of ultimate conflict upon-the Canadian borders. It is a plea tsnt circumstance' that, making this communi cation, we are not only able but obliged to acknow ledge that the Canadian authority has, in this in stanee, thus far co-operated with this Government to faithful and diligent efforts to bring the dis turbers of ; the public peace to due account. It is, however, Impossible to resist the conviction that peace cannot be reliably maintained upon the border unless some more effective measures shall be adopted to secure that end than'those that have hitherto been used by both Governments. “We knowjwell, although we have not judicial evidence, that all the movements of this character are set on foot by Jaoob Thompson and other dis loyal American citizens who are temporarily domi ciled to Canada, raid furnished with funds there for these iniquitous purposes through, the banking In stitutions ol Canada. It is now my duty to instruct you to give notice to Earl Bussell, to conformity with the treaty reservation of. that right, that at the expiration of six months after you shall have made this communication, the United States will deem themselves at liberty to increase the naval armament upon tbKlakes if, to their judgment, the, condition of affairs^to,that quarter shall then re quire it. And you will be oarefal to advise us of the day on which this notice Is given. You.wiH as sure the Earl, however, that this proceeding is adopted only as a necessary measure of national de fence, and not only with no purpoee or hostility, but, on the other hand, with a desire no less earnest than heretofore to preserve the most friendly rela tions with Great Britain. Moreover, this Govern ment will, in every oase. direct its best efforts to prevent invasion of British territory, whether by way of popnlar retaliation or otherwise. It Is not fdr.us to indicate the means her Majesty’s Government should adopt to maintain neutrality on their side of tbe border. You will, again sug gest to her Majesty’s Government that, to. our opinion, a policy similar to that which was Inau gurated by our enactment before mentioned might be followed with advantage by. Great Britain to ibe American provinces during our present civil war. I should fall, however, to express a sincere conviction of this Government If I should not re-, peat now, what I have heretofore so often had oo to say, that, praotleaHy,.the policy of neu- S which her Majesty has proclaimed, has. as well to the British home ports as to the British colonies, and especially to the latter; and that It must continue to fall more conspicuously every day, so long as asylum is allowed, there to aotlve agents of the enemies of the United States, and they sue to any wajf able, by evasion or other wise, to use the'British ports and British borders as a base for felonious depredations against the citizens, of the United States. “ Nor are we able to conceive of any remedy ade. ; quate to the present exigency, bnt the recognition by her Majesty’s Government of the just and ex-, oluslve sovereignty, of the United States in. all the waters and territories legally subject to tbe juris diction of this Government. I use the word exi gency with a oonsdlousuess of Its just effect. “ The welfare and prosperity of the British pro* vinces on our borders, are as sincerely desired by us as they oanbeby the British Government; In a practical sense these provinces are sources of wealth and influence for the United, States* al bthongh they are subject t» a foreign jurisdiction, raye have proved that this Is a sincere conviction on Irar part by entering Into relations of reciprocal free trade with the British provinces BlmiMbss toU rbate as the relations of free trade which, under our Constitution, prevail between the several States of the American Union. ' “ Thus far we have been content with these rela tions, and probably we should remain content, whether the colonies adhere to their ties with Great Britain, or, with her consenVehould assume the re sponsibilities of self-government j provided, always, that our friendship Is reciprocated, while peace and harmony on the border are essential to the very ex istence of such friendship. On the other hand, we have aright to expect that the dwellers within those provinces will be content to fulfil toward us . the obligations of good nelghb9rii.q9a, a? w? are ex- pesfed to .fulfil the same obligations on our part. Even If this Government could be satisfied with less than what I have thus indicated, It must, neverthe less, US admitted that, from the very foroe of cir cumstances, peace coaid hardly be expected to pre vail on # border which should not afford 1 Jo me com munliles Which It divides an adequate' protection against mutual aggression and reprisal “ Political agitation Is aa frequent in tbd British American pvhvhices as It hr here.
