OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.
Our giving up the rebel Embassadors, -
Mason and Slidell, at the peremptory
demand of the English government has
not, it appears, saved us from that pow
,
er's further interference in our affairs.— ,
The news from. Europe, by the Africa,
is quite conclusive upon this point; not
only tius...but_ we are threatened, not
only by England, but by the other chief
maritimViSOWers of Eur Ope.
FronzWashington City we learn that
private letters' eneived there from Amer
hums abrOluhonfirm the impression that
is now firevalent in New York, that the
governments of " France, England and
Spain meditate an early recognition of
the indefendence of the Confederate
States. England seems to be at the bot
tom of, thisliague against our govern
ment, beeAuse the pretext set up for the
necessity of this recognition is purely
English—it is to be made in the "cause
of hmonnity,"
The course of the Abolitioniets,in Con.
gLess and out, has also furnished these
foreign. poivers a powerful reason, they
say, for recognising the Southern Con
federacy..Xl,l4T.Copy from thaNew York
times, a likOitan paper, but one of
usual reliability. Its report `says in re
lation to this foreign intervention:
"Theirlfinisters assume that the war
on theart of the 'North' is rapidly de
generagng . into a fanatical crusade
against the sooial order of the bouth,
which must end in servile insurrections,
slaughtii.of women and children, and
finally the:general-massacre of slaves by
their masters.,To prevent these horrors,
the 'leading hristian nations' feel it
their duty to interfere. The true reason,
however, is that they wish to site the
Union permanently divided and crip
pled."
In considering these reports, and oth
ers in relation to England's growling
about our atone blockade, it is evident
that we - are not yet done with John Bull
and his intrigues for our nation's dis
memberment. She taught us Abolition
ism, but now.the pious soul recoils from
the coneeqUences of her teachings. The
New York papers seem apprehensive of
trouble, but fondly hope that after the
causes , nnd manner of our blockading
the Southern porta come to be thor
oughly understood, England will find no
cause oUfurther complaint. That she
is determined to be enlightened is evi
dent, because Earl Russel has been ap
pealed to to interfere in the matter, and
we are informed of his correspondence
upon the : subject with Lord Lyons, the
English Minister at Washington, in
which his Lordship " expresses the dis
satisfaction of the British government
at such proceedings, and strong hopes
that it would not be repeated." The
New York journal, alluded to, says if
England has done this then it hopes that
our government willreply—"mind your
own business." Why this Bull will re
spond that he is minding his own busi
ness, not because hie interests, his jeal
ousies andprospeolive fears admonish him
but solely on account of feelings of hu
manity to prevent the possible 'lslaught
er of women and children. " Has the
world ever yet known so heartless and
nfamous a hypocrite as that English
government.
- 1113 have said upott
this tripartite , expedition againit — iii, we
see by a Paris Correspondent of the
Herald tliat Napoleon is not only Anxious
to recognize the Southern Confederacy,
but is about to . do so. He says:
"I am. in the possesipn of information
which establishes beyond a doubt that
this government is bent upon the recog
nition 40f-the South. It has within the
last two tieeka repeatedly urged this
course upon England, and may succeed
in persuading' the PalmPrstor‘Csbineteo
meet ita- views. The 'Washington govern
ment viiitteßita at once, coast defences must be
attended to, and above all, a strong, efficient
navy be atone equipped.
"The... English government continues
sending immense munitions and large
forces to Canada, and waris by no means
as yet averted.
"As a sign of the times, I may state
that a breditiii entitled "The Recognition
of the Souj.h,",will appear to morrow at
Denton's, the publisher of governmental
pamphlets. and that this brochure is os
tensibly_ the work of K. Grandguillot,
editor of the Pays, but is in reality the
work of some government scribe, and is
fatheredly.Grandeu.llot as a well reco4-
nized servant oi_Persigny's administra
tion. Of.otanne the brochure is but a
straw td 'see which way the popular
breeze blows. If it is successful, so
much the better,; if not, no more will
be said. It will'have been ascertained
that the - 4011;c is unfavorable to such
conclusions esare come to by the writer.
Of ocnitise isitseless to add that the
wcrk in .:question is inimical to the
North."' , -" ,
In England, as in the United States,
much is demanded for the Belie of par
t)! ; tbilvaiticians in power there now
are magtig"the most of this war against
this goverMnent for partizan effect.—
Should, that; party be able, by its clamor
against lei sustain itself in power,
there in, ,btlt little hope of England
"minding-liet own business," at our' res
quest, until she has accomplished her
designs,_ upon this continent—among
which is the permanent separation of
the Uniiik:fitates.
XB 8 . LINCOLN'S DARCING
6 • PARTY.
We see by a telegraphic announce.
. meat thattbe accomplished mistress of
the White House has issued cards for a
denoblitarly, rhich is to come:off to
morrow evening, and to which Mrs.
James faiwion Bennett is "specially"
invited.;:..Mobliennett is the only per
son whose invitations published, bat we
presume , that our "gay and festive"
iriendiWithoGaze• tte will be on hand,
and will grecefully glide into the first

that tbe.sertits editor's style is quite at

appearance in motion to rallinc ,—
We cuareadilrinfer-Irom-this that our
friend never indulges in those new
•WdOttbtfaoharacterT.
and that when he and Mrs. Lincoln or
Mrs. Bennett take the floor to spread
themselves to-morrow evening, they will
confine themselves to the square fours
and country dances so popular with our
Republican fathers, and still in vogue in
the rural districts of Illinois. Our in
tention was to be on hand ourself, hav
ing received a private invitation from
Mrs. Bennett, but we tear our inability
to be there. Our friend and brother of
the Gazette will therefore convey to Mrs.
B. our regrets, and say that in our ab
sence we desire "Old Abe" to take our
place and do the usual small talk and
confectionery to that inisoeptible and
amiable creature. The rail splitter hav
ing no pretensions to "hops"—his feet
and legs being of inadmissible propor
tions for " polka"—our friends will
oblige us by seeing that our weakness
will be properly entertained by the Eng
lish minister_ Our friend will attend to
these delicate little formalities and raise
himself still higher in our estimation.
ROUSE OF REFUGE.
We have received, and will publish to•
morrow, (Wednesday) an able and in
teresting letter from Rev. T. Mullen, of
Alleghedy City, in answer to the state
ment of John T. Logan, President of
House of liefuge. Mr. Mullen under
stands the whole question and leaves no
point of escape for the pious fraternity
of this rather notorious institution. We
hope Mr. Logan will soon understand
what is thought of his intolerant position
by the public.
A. NEW PARTY
That virtuous politician, Forney, is
anxious to form a new party, under the
lead of Hon. Andrew Johnson, of Ten
nessee, to consist of Douglas Democrats
and the "good men of the Republican
party." The Gazette seconds this under
taking quite heartily. We suspect, how.
ever, that when they come to arrange
the terms of this new party these exper
imenters will find some difficulty.—
Where are the Douglas Democrats who
are willing to,be led and sold by Fo ney?
and haw many of that depaitel patri
ot's followers are going to disgrace his
teachings and memory by joining hands
with Abolition emancipationists? Be
sides, what sort of platform will satisfy
the Gazette; anything at all we presume,
that promises triumph to the coalition.
In anticipation of this sell our neighbor
had better begin to back from its Abo
lition notions, because Andrew Johnson,
of Tennessee, and Douglas Democrats
everywhere will never accept its pro
scriptive tenets, as a platform to com•
mend their indorsement and support.—
The Gazettes bluster about the Chicago
platform it is willing to take back, in
order to form another new party. Re
publican Abolitionism is evidently on
the decline.
ALLEGHENY VALLEY ROAD.
There will be an election for Directors
of this road held to-day. We hope the
stockholders will be mindful of their
own and interests of the public by se
lecting a competent, working Board.—
The certainty of the completion of the
Sunbury and Erie Road, advances the
prospect of a connection at an early
day. l',4e-immeave-tlllll - 5 degaloped in
e2:111 region is also attracting its at
tention of our citizens and the friend?,
the Allegheny Valley Road. We hope
some gentleman will be selected as the
the chief officer who has the time and
ability to attend to this important trust.
Cannot the Valley of the Allegheny
furnish such a man ?
HARRISBURG CORRESPONDENCE.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATTYES,
HARRISBURG, FRIDAY, Jan. 307. n.
1, have some leisure time to day, and
will occupy it in jotting down a few
items for the Post.
At last the Legislature has commenc
ed work in good earnest, and several
bills have this week passed finally, while
many others of importance are under
consideration.
The resolutions of Col. Hopkins, of
Washington, whioh you published a few
days since, appointing a Committee of
the House to investigate the matter in
regard to the alleged frauds by which
the act was passed last winter commu
ting the tonnage duties on the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, was yesterday adopted
by a vote of 92 to 1, every member of
the House voting yea except Mr. Dennis,
of Philadelphia. During the disoussion
on these resolutions, Mr. Williams of
your county took an active part. He
closed the debate on the subject with a
speech of about an hour's length, which
for eloquence and strength of argument,'
we have a ldom heard excelled. Mr.
Dennis, who made the principal speech
in opposition to the measure, rose in his
place immediately after Mr. Williams
finished, on a privileged question, and
made a statement to the effect that the
gentleman who had just taken his seat
I had charged him with venality, and he
wished to show he had a clear record on
the subject. He said that he and the
gentleman from Allegheny would settle
their personal matters outside the House.
This flavored a little of coffee and pis
tols, but as the Philadelphia member
was formerly a preacher, and of course
not expected to be of a very belligerent
disposition, and everybody knows that
Williams is not either, I expect the
parties will never come in conflict in
any other way than lawyers are wont to
fight.
Your very worthy member, Dr. A. H.
Gross, also made a very nice little speech
on the subject of these resolutions. He
took the House by surprise, as he balbeen
rather quiet heretofore, but his pleasing
manner and apt illustrations had a fine
effect, and his address was well received.
The House, on Tuesday, appointed
Me ss rs, Rex, Vie cent, Greenbank, Sellers
and Smith (of Chester) a Committee to
investigate thealleged halide rn the army
contracts in this State.
A resolution passed the Senate to-day,
after a lengthy discussion, jnityrkerting
unr 11 . S:Senators to vote for the mpg;
skut of 4on. Jesse D. Bright.,
More anon, B.
Judge Vondersmith Pardoned
confined in the Eastern Penitentiary for
several years, for forginging land war
rants, was yesterday set at libertp, hav
ing been pardoned by President Lin
coln. One of the last official acts of Mr.
Buchanan was to commute his punish
ment, and the term of imprisonment
would hive terminated in May. -The
pardon of President Lincoln relieves
Judge Vondersmith of the tine of $5,000
imposed upon him at the time of his
sentence.
From the New York Herald
Abolitionist Shriekers in Congress
The radical faction in the Senate and House of
Representative; - continne to strain every nerve to
obstruct the rouree of the government, and create
di,eouzagetnent among the people, respecting the
manner in which the war is conducted. The late
speech of Mr. Gurley has excited a degree of in
dignation among army officers, and our soldiers
generally, which can only be properly understood
by shoat who are here on the spot They read the
newspapers, especially the Herald, and are fully
and accurately informed of everything that it is
proper ahou'd be known. From generals down to
privates, the confidence in General McClellan is
unlimited, and it is thoroughly understood and
rejoiced at that in his hands alone are the threads
of every movement that le being carried on in all
parts of the country. No one is more interested
than the Commander-in-Chief In pushing forward
our armies as rapid y as possible, and some idea
of the unparalleled Industry that has been daphty
ea may be obtained, by the announcement of the
fact that, in order to get as far South as Monfics./o,
General Sehoepff'a men had actually ecrnetr,etal, from
the date of the battle at Mill Spring up to three days
ago, Jo -ty mite of corduroy road: Our bravo sol•
deers know well what difficulties will have to be
ovezcome, before the Southern rebellion le effecuu
'thy suppressed. They also know that these diffi
culties will be suppressed; but they think it a pity
the Greeley', Gurleys, Chandlers, Wilkinson, Gsr
risous and Lovejoys, who are continually decrying
their heroic exertions cannot be compelled either
to close mouths which are perpetually vomiting
forth slander and falsehood, or else be drafted Into
ihe service and made to wade thruugh the thigh
deep mui which Impedes the progress of the
Union trees. Let Congress take warning. Col.
R.chardson of Illinois hay thundred into the ears
of the House of ikepresentativea, the dangers
that may involve from creating, irritating and un
necessary issues with our army, and the speech o'
Mr. Cox, in reply to Gurley and Bingham, teaches
its own lesson.

His colleague had said that the people had no

crih
cluing one of th, meat accompllahed °dicers in the
military service of any nation. Why, years ago, in
the Mexican war, these same gentlemen who are
so querulous about McClellan, echoed Sumner's
"Peace, the true grandeur of nations," and Hosea
Balleu's slang,
" Fife away, you Ban' feller,
You may fife till you are yeller,
'Fore you get a hold of me."
He referred, In conclusion, to the automat of thes e
attacks on General McClellan. It was because he
would not make this war an Ablettion war. He
would not now diactua this aspect of our debates.
Happily, he could announce that no confiscating
or emancipating bills can pass this Congress. Let
the Abolitionists howl out let Phillips deolare that
a victory by McClellan would only cover up the old
slavery sore, and, therefore, was to be deplored.
He hoped that these attacks on our commander,
our Constitution, sod the Government, which were
discouraging to tne army and the taxpayers, would
cease for the common object—the restoration of the
Union.
