WOULD EBGIiAHD GAIIT BY A BEC OGUTITIOW OF TIB BEBELS ? Tii this question, one of this English weekly journals answers “No!” The reasons for the . negative are very clearly stated, as follows: •‘No sooner shall we. have assisted the South to attain its independence than new. questions of the first importance will comp op as to slavery extension and.the slave kradei; Mexico, and an Anglo-Saxon slave-common,wealth can never he peaceable neighbors. The South already in tend to absorb Mexico. For twenty years back their policy has tepded in this direction. The Knights of .the Gplden Circle are pledged to the attempt. The! genius ,)( the slavery cotton system requires , constant onlargment of_area, and Mexico is not'the state to resist any consist ent and well-organized pressure. We shall have soon to face the efforts of the South to ab sorb Mexico as of the slave commonwealth, and the same peril which ■ makes us bend be fore it now, will h'd ns bend before it then.— We shall Winvolved in the; meshes of the sla very net, and be pi ore sensitive than ever to.the danger of slave insurrections, the menaces of northern abolitionists, in short, the moral ne ‘ cessity of .supporting the South against its nor thern foes. . . "And what will be- our reward ?—that we shall have a less formidable rival in Disunited than we could ever have in United States. This is one of those political motives which we can never hear confessed without wondering at the unblushing selfishness, of statesmen.

But all mtr.moral influences ougltf fto be clearly giv en to the North, and. if the f inclusion of the struggle leaves any portion -of the- southern states independent, it should be our earnest en deavor to support i he northern stales in the pol icy of saaling up slavery within certain impas sable limits, atfd forever terminating the slave trade.

Gen.

The day was warm and plensant —thoroud, one. of the finest Lever saw, was the old paved high way, between Frederick Oity, and Washington, bat as pleasant -ns it' is, it ; is .like Jordan, “a hard road to travel.’’ We reached this camp about half-past three, P. M., and before the son went down, our tents were pitched, and in good order, and the Buck-tails seated around their camp-fires,, cracking-jokes, and-prinking coffee, twenty-five miles from where we were on the previous night.,- Our camp is pleasantly situated on a high point of ground, about one and d half miles from the Chain Bridge, and four from .Wash ington. It is surrounded .on every side by strong fortifications, while others are constant ly being built.. I was down to tbe Chain Bridge Thursday. It is well guarded at each end by strong batteries, besides there is a line Of earth works and batteries which extend the, whole length of tbe bights, from the bridge, to Wash ington. For miles around tbo city, it is one grand encampment, with hundreds of thou sands of .strong hearts aching, for a fight, and cannons enough to blow, up Giberalte. Yet ’tis a sad truth, that within sight of all this grand military preparation, there is a flag that floats in opposition to tho one that waves above the Capital of the Nation. Thursday was a general day of rest among the soldiers., It was a day fur prayer and fast ing, hut as we have to fast the most of the time, we concluded to let others have that part of tho exercise. We had the pleasure, however, of lis tening to a short, but eloquent and patriotic sermon, by. ,the Rev. Win. Ilaskall, of West field, Pennsylvania. Friday v. as a cold, stormy day,; tho wind hlejv a perfect gale all night, occasionally sweep ing one of our tents “to grass.” As I lay cud dled down among my tent mates, (Dap, Tom, Add and Ed.) I was strongly reminded ,of the cold, chilly wind of our northern December. Saturday night, we received orders to he ready to march at a momen.’e warning. We were infrnied that if a single six pounder was fitied during tho night, to spring to the ranks and he. ready to start; hut tbe night wore away and all was quiet. Sunday morriing brought us tbe glad tidings that Munson’s Bill was ours, and that, too, without the loss of a man. That was a good move,for it was a strong hold, but not ns strong as we expected, hut it cheered tbe bravo heart of the mighty army of the north. This morning was ushered in by tho thun dering of cannons over in It has been kept up the most of the day, A party of rebels tried to cross tbe river, hut.were driven hack. It created a great excitement here, and in leas than one hour, more than 100,000 men were under arms, ready to fight to the bitter end. The very heavens echoed with cheers.— We all feel lliat w p havq received our last, de feat, and lost our. last battle. A sergeant in Co. F. t of our Regiment, shot himself todays He loaded hie.gun, placed the muzzle in bis mouth end pulled jt off with bis toe. lie was a little insane; and bad been a number of,.days.

What Hatteras has Done for us.—The London Times thinks the capture of the Hattef as forts a matter of no such great importance. Doubtless the Charleston Mercury agrees with the Times. When Charleston is taken, wberi Fensacola is opened to the commerce of the world, when the Mississippi Sound, which con nects Mobile with New Orleans; is completed in our possession, and the passes of the Missis sippi are held by our troops, perhaps we shall! think less of Hatteras. BuC-even then we shall remember that since the capture of Fort Hat teras and Fort Clark we have not heard of ia single new privateer: we have not heard of oije vessel running the blockade; of one American ship captured by pirates; or of an arrival of any kind in the southern waters. But we have heard the shudder of alarm which ran like wildfire through the whole southern country; we have heard of the “ disgraceful scene in the North Carolina legislature,” as the Richmond papers called it—which was nothing less than a spontaneous shout for the Union, hy a part of the legislators; when received news of the rebel defeat and the surrender of the forts to tbe Stars and Stripes. So much Hatteras has done for us, at any rate : and doubtless, tbesb circumstances give to those who have enjoyed our losses a very contemlible opinion of gains.— Xcw Turk Eixi.iny Post.
