When Secretary Seward ceded upon
our Northern Governors to imbitediatoilyl
fortify their coasts, in anticipation of,
foreign aggression, every one saw that
it was but a bit of bluster, intended 'an t !

sagacious minister assured the country
that there was no probability of difficul

result of the matter is that the

, twetiu tWo "Christian people, speaking
„Vile same,language and professing the
same religion," have not succeeded in
triCilifying veteran Bull. Having done
all they desired us to do, and in the
manner they prescribed for doing ii,
they very truly inform our Government
that it took council of its fears in giving
up the rebel embassadors Speaking
this change in the sentiment of the New
York press; prior to the giving up of
Mason and Slidell, the London Herald,
Bays :
or
1
s ,
,
"The tone of the American press is al..
terech It is comparatively moderate and
.restonable, Unfortunately, we cannot re
cognise- in the change any batter motive
than fear,"
Derby's organ, of the 4th inat., talks
in Ude way :
"Who can tell what a day may bring
forth? 'We have now got a day's later
from America, aid the change winch
In twetity-tobr hours has been effected in
the strongly- expressed 1 esol ve of the people
.thateountry is something startling to us
Oar courageous cousins there- - fall from
shooting to whining and exchange their
big. words for very small talk indeed
Thiaktrigqffitt we should mince that mat•
trfey proclaimed themselves ready to
fight us. Hearing that we, too, or bi.ring
our arms and assuming the "posture of
defence," they tuck down their sleeves
again, tell us that it was all a mistake, and
they hOpe no offence will be taken.
" We trust that our government will
profit by ibis gratifying lesson. Should a
similar difficulty arise again we shall know
how to deal with the American government ."
This means, we presume that the nex t
time our government puts on airs, Juan
Bullwill put us through a course of
kicking, and not give uo a chance to ex
plain or apologize.
The assumed felicity of Secretary
igeWard and of the learned Sumner, in
congratulating the country that the po
sition of our government in giving up
the rebel ministers, settled "a great quee
tion'm our favor and against England,
is thus disposed of. " This concesaion
of theirs," says Derby, "must not be al
lowed to fetter us in our future course "
behooves both England and France
to consider whether the time has riot arrived
for recognising the Southern Confeder
and whether the inefficient blockade which
80 `ax injur'y to their manufacturing
and commercial interests should any longer
be condoned from any false feeling of ten
desetesefor the amour propre of the North.
•sirWe shall be acting in the interests
of humanity if we do what in us lies to
discourage .a straggle In which the North
Is committing a political suicide, and the
lergoing a vindictive and relent
ass pentectutton, in which the customary
usages of civilised war are most wantonly
and Wickedly set at naught."
Judging by these brief extracts, which
we selected from quite a number
ofAnglish editorials, one can readily
imagine the shout that will go up when
Mason arrives in London. How our
government will be sneered at ; how the
rebel mister will be feasted, and how
loyal Americans in England
.will bow
their heads in shame.
All tithi,hFrtillation might have been
avoided; but there is such a thing as
peCiPle being toe smart; Mr. Seward
oould not_tt ink of doing at first what
he .vittsconipelled to do at last. No, ho

FRUND Ja113.9 :—Just as we had complet.,d our
winter quarters, and after spending too we eke of
arduous labor in the construction of a formkab e
breast work for our protectior, the order came to
pack our traps and for ward to thls We lest
the Pont cf Rocks, on Friday the .10.11 inst., and
took the tow-path of the Ches.peake and Ohio ca

command of Lieutenant Chas A. Atwell Cat tam

sea us safely over the difficult, portion of the road.
When stopped by an onatacle of rather dangeron •
appeara,ce, it was encouraging to the men to see
how both the Captain and Lieturna ot, die/MOM:It
ing, placed their stoulaere to the w..eel. The
Captain bade no good bye after seeing us we I ad
vanced on the route, and we reached bandy Hook
at eight o'clock that evening. The following night
under cover of the darkness, the gun in char t e cf
a Sergeant, Corporal and ten men, was plan

of oar new section progresses rather aloes—the
