Nor is there anything, i venture to uflirw, i in the seizure of these rebel emissaries which | ought t«> receive an unfriendly construction j from Eugland. Uer statesmenwill not jquui j tion the legkl right of in. American vessel of war to r-careh aoy oofnmercial vessel justly suspected of transporting contraband of war : ■ that right has never boon surrendered by ; England; ii was even guaranteed to her by tho Treaty of Baris, and llriiish guns frowh mg down’upon nearly every struit aud inland | sea upon the globe are conclusive evidence j that sta* regards this rights one, the efficacy I of which may be not jyet entirely exhausted. I Of coarse, there U mufch that is-irritating and I veiatious in Ihe exerjisfe of flits right under the mud favorable cirfumstunces, aud,it is to bn "hoped the day is ntt far distant -when maritime' States of tjto, wurld-.wtil agree in placing neutral cdmmt red beyond the reach -of such voiations. Th<£ United Slates Oovern ment has been striving to this end for more than fifty years; end, early in the present century, aad »n its infancy ar a da tioo, it embarked in » war with the greatest naval power in the world, and it i? even nbw a porsistent «uitoy.al every maritime Conrtjin Europe for a more liberal recognition of tho rights of neutrals than of tbo other greAt msr itimo nations have yet hcon disposed to make. But unltf those rights arO'secured by proper international guarantees upon a comprehen sive and enduring.basU, of course England cannot complain of nn act for which in all’its material bearings her own naval history hf fonls such numerous precedents. Whether the captive- from the Trent were contraband of war or not, is a question which the two Governments can havo no serious dif fieultv iu agreeing upon. If .Mr. Seward cannot satisfy Burl Rih-kcII that they wore, 1 have no doubt Earl ltussell will be able-to satisfy Mr. Seward that they wfcro not. . If they were, as all authorities concur in adtiil ting, agents of the rebellion, it will bo diffi cult to satisfy impartial minds that they Wero any less contraband "Ilian' a file of rebel Sol diers or a battery of hostile cannon. But even should lltere be' a difference of ..pinion, upon this point, it is very clear that our Government-had* sufficient grounds for presuming itself in the right to escape suspi cion of having wantonly violated tho rclatibns of amity which the two countries a deairo to preserve and cultivate. • The pretence that we ought to have taken the Trent into port, and had her condeuined by a I*rue Court, in order to justify our seizure .f four passengers, furnishes a very naitow basis on which to fix a controversy between two great nations. Stated in othor words, on offcnco woald have been less if il bad boon greater*. The jrrong done to tho Britisb Bag would have been mitigated if, instead; of seizing tbo four rebel*, we had the ■hip,! de tained all her passengers for weeks, and con fiscated her cargo. 1 am not surprised that Capt. WUkca took a different view of hia duty and of what was duo to tho friendly relations which subsisted between tho two Govern ineuts.' The' renowned common sens* English pcbplo, T hcllevo " Will approvo of bis effort to niako tho discharge of a very unpleas ant duty as littlo as possible tf all innocontparties. . If, under thoso ciroamstancos, England shoulddoem U her'duty, in the interest ofeiv ilisation, to insist upon tho restoration of tho men taken from under the protection other (lag, it will bo from a conviction) without doubt, that thq law of nations in regard" to tho rights of neutrals; which sbo has ttkon the leading port in establishing, require! re vision, and with o Buitiible disposition on her part to establish those rights upon o just! hu mane and philosophic basis, indeed, 1 Jim happj to iec an Intimation in ono of tho load ing metropolitan journols, which goes fir. ta justify this inference.

JTo , Esq. • ... :•. How tho Trent Affair ia Viewed in Washington. [ ' AH tbe news from Washington la' pacific. Thcro aecmt to bo a fixed resolution that a war with England is to he avoided if it can . possibly bo dono by any oonciliation short of National dishonor. The wisdom and pro donco of the President and Cabinet, in this respect, commends itself to the hearty ap probation of tho whole people, ■ • ■ I Tho special dispatch of tho Now York Tribune, of Dec. 19, says :- ' j . ABUTTAL OF TDK MKRSSNGEtt* PBOM ENGLAND. Capt. Seymour and’Mr. Adam's messenger arrived about midnight, in consequonco of a delay caused by a railroad accident.—-Lord Lyons has dotainod tho Africa till Friday. Nothing can, of course, bo known of tho dis patches till to-morrow, when Jtbo President will send a message to the Senate on tho tub* I joct ofnur rotations with Great Britain, which 1 will bo eoniiderod in Executive Session, j A rumor is afloat that the Govornmont has i decided to return Mason and Slidell; but we ! arc satisfied, nfter inquiry, that it is untrue, i The question would not bo docidcd in advanee I of the receipt of Mr. Adam's dispatches, and ! thero has been no Cabinet meeting sinco yes i terday. ‘ The Africa witl carry to England a ! dispatch from Lord Lyuns, containing little » more than the iutidligenco that he has received • and delivered to" the;"American Government i | bis insttuetiAns frt>m ! the Foreign Offioe*. The following special, dispatch to the Now | ! York TWs, Intimates that the rebel envoys ,—may bo giveli Up': ' 1 THE ENGLISH yUESTION—'ATTITUbU OF THE AD ! MINISTRATION. ,V. ' A Cabinet mooting was held to-day, at which the English question was diicussed of course informally, aa the nature of the dis patches brought by the Royal messenger have uot been divulged. There was but onusenti weut, and that was that no quarrel with Eng land must bo permitted to interfere at this moment to stay the reduction of the Southern rebels. The llovcrnim-nt is probably satisfied that the clamor for a war with England origi nate* with, and is propagated by, sympathizers with tbo Southern rebellion- It knows that nothing would so gratify the rebels ; would so restore their vanishing confidence, and rein vigoratu them to redoubled eflbrts at defeuee, as the nows that England is to be permitted to come to their rescue. It believes it has uo right to give new life to the rebellion by entering upon another aud vaster quarrel, which would at the smuo time increase ten fold the burdens upon the people of the Fortin and it Q&turally hesitates to adopt a policy which would carry joy tv every traitor in the country, aud weigh down to pov erty tbo loyal and Jaw-observing citizen. But whether tbeseorother consideration.- gov - em in tho matter, I have the best authority for saying the, demands of England will bo mot in a spirit of conciliation, that will at onco refuto the calumny that Sir. Seward, or any other member of the Cabinet, has been eager to provoke a foreign war. Tho intelli gence received by tho Jura, that the dis patches with which Slidoll and Mason wero entrusted reached England, notwithstanding their arrest,‘renders tho question as to the disposition of tbo persona ol‘ tho robol envoys one of secondary moment, and a most inade quate one on which to base a great interna tional struggle. It will bo borno in mind that tho Administration is still uncommitted on tho Trent business. Tho subject was not inontioued in tho President's Message; and the languago of Secretary Welles, in his re port, and his lottcr to Capt. Wilkes, aro rather professional thau diplomatic, and in no degree bind tho Suite Department. Of one thing the public may rot assured, the subject will not be settled without an important curtail ment of tho English pretensions to enforce a right of search, which she tlnds so unpalata ble concede to other Powers. A dispatch to tho Now York Herald says the President will not give up the traitor am bassadors under any circumstances, and that bo is immovably fixed in this purpose. Dispatches received at Washington stato that the robots in tho South arc wild with ox eitement over tho news received by tho Eu ropa, indicating that England has assumed a bostilo attitude towards tho United States. Thoy regard it as an evidence of the intention of tho quondam tbo seas to take -np their quarrel, open their ports, and fight ‘their battle. They deceive themselves, as thoy have done frbm tho beginning. Important from Kentucky.

Cumsponilcnw of the Pittsburgh Gazette. WAsmsGToy, Dec. 19, IS6I. Dear Gazette: —Once more under tie clear skies of our National Capitol—and the baggage wagon dumps on tho pavement the somewhat worn valise which contains, the “other shirt” and two paper collars (dirty on ono side) of “our correspondent,” and also a variety of parcels of bedding, boxes of jellies (converted generally on tho road into jam),' bundles of socks, and Ibo many “comforts needed by our brave vol*» nntccrs”, which attach themselvcs nowa days to the otherwise meagre baggage "of travellers to Washington. Tho. driver, as he drops the box—carried carefully side up, remarks that “thei; fnolasecs is leaking out”—and from the appearance of his back—a euperficial observer would be inclined to accept his statement, but as it is directed to an officer, 1 indignantly reject the molasses theory, and insist on it being “preserves, and dismiss him, feeling not less sticky—bat infinitely tuore genteel. The little landlady smilingly says “wel come back,-’ and we pass up the stairway to our ownToom, feeling tbekiridly influ ence of a bright face, destroying the feeling of loneliness that is alWays more impres sive in a great city, than a wilderness. A walk to the Department convinces us that the particular grindstone, upon which wo wish to sharpen our own axej is not “in a state of revolution.” Sol saunter back again toward my room, noting as i go, those little peculiarities of Washington City which would seem noteworthy to the “gentle readers” of the old UoseUe. Some others beside myself have evi dently been disappointed this morning, mid a little experience in this city enables one to judge by the pantomime without listen ing to the words. The excited individual in the great coal who is telling his friends of the result and initialling unconsciously on tho Park railing, has “gone tip” decisive 1 There are ho possible chances of his donning a uuiform, despite of the many fluttering recommendations brought on from his native town, endorsed by the postmas ter and possibly in vague terms by his Congressman. He feels evidently not so much grief at his own disappointment, as sorrow in the knowledge that the country cannot last when merit is so neglected. Poor fellow, it' the iron were more impressi ble it would show him the dents of ten thousand previous fists all ns irate as his own. ..is is the last stage of the office-seeking disease. Tho gentleman who first comes out with elate step and smiling face, talk ing softly to himself, is in the first, stage? and not-having made any positive demand for position, (being awe struck by an nn dicnce,) has been dismissed with such pleasant words that ho feels assured that at his next audience he has only to - say what—and the place is his. The medium stage is the status of the writer hereof, and delicacy forbids a des cription. Possibly in a week, l may sub side through the various stages and at last take iny friend’s place at the Park railing. The first Secretary who invented the railing in tho outer bull which divides this expectants from those who have obtained the entree, was a man of mind. Any one who has gone tlirough all the horrors of an attempted audience will remember how he dashes up, on the glow of morning, san guine of admittance, and confident of the result, and felt the Brat chill when ho was encountered at the railing barrier by the information that there were thirty or forty cards in, in advance of his own, how he lingered in the vestibule, which is painfully destitute of scats, how ho began to feel faint misgivings of the success of his suit, even were ho admitted —and standing tip by the railing began to imagine himself a criminal beforo the court, and feeling a half guilty consciousness of having com mitted some forgotten petty crime:—some thing rather of tho mean order —liko rob bing a hen-roost —tho grand consciousness of being “the people" intending to sec one of the public servants, —gently ooxing out of him. Another hour, and the consciousness of crime—and of being rather on the sneak urder, generally grows greater, and you begin to feel extremely doubtful of any possible success, and suspicious that the fellow who has just trampled upon your corns, without apologetic remark, is an applicant for the same post as yourself. The throes of a plcbian stomaph that has been accustomed to a twelve o'clock dinner, adds to tbe general- discomfort, and if by any ohance, before two o'clock closed the reception hours, you obtain admittance, you feel as though you were dragged in ruthlessly by tho scruff of tho neck, to utter a feeble apologetic request for a position which you had untended to demand. ' Tho score of personal testimonials as to : your ability and worth, shine with jin un expected dimness in the lustrous prcsenco _of the Secretary, and oven tips magical bn dotSo ment of the President himself, upon which you so much relied, i-tlaid carelessly aside, with the jocular remark that—“that individual has ondorsed so - many persons, that his influence is gone,' which youtsmile at, with about tbe Same amount of mirth as. atfeofled the little joke of the school-tcaohcr, < : as you ' stood ; before 1 him with outspread imnd awaiting the ferule, j While yoil Bull wait'the President and Vice President both come in.Jilr.binco.lnloQkingsojoTial.and uttering one or two little joke, wbilo muk ing his way across. the: .floor,; that' youjfeel* much hieUned to just hand over your claim' to him’ »hd remind him that theComui nn der-ln-tCHief made special application "to 1 hint in your favor, and . urge himto say a few 'words't6 the Secretary, to close the matter. 'But twO thlngsdetery'ob.'iOne is, jlik?•» « who claimed imd held the right to regulatr bis owm depaTtmsnt,.afia the, deportment of the president towards, him" strengthens lh e supposition. And, bcsides, tlie fatal in fluence of-thetrailing pursues you, and you enunat “rkisifyeur EbeueieiT’ to the rtsqiii site altitude for.the attempt. So thcSere tary graciously dismiss you i t with the pro ■niise to beep, your -documents in view, and you retire, wondering.'whether you'might not as well lake'your turn at once at, Ae.
