Siuce the settlement of the Trent affair, but few indications have come to us from the other side of the waters, of a desire on the part of the European powers to inter fere in the settlement of the domestic war now agitating this country. Recently, however, the phase of things have under gone a partial change, and now it looks ns if France were making a movement in that direction. The mainspring at the bottom, is a growing want of cotton. Undoubtedly an eflort will be made to unite Great Britain with France, and enlist one or two other European ' Courts in the same interest. The effort will be to drive us into some kind of a settlement, a compromise, by which peace will be restored, and Southern ports again opened to Foreign trade. However desirous our government may be to avoid any collision with Foreign powers, we cannot perceive how -it can now for a moment listen to any. proposition of peace from other powers. Our blockade is now about as perfect as it can be made, and is growing more and more effective. We are fast gaining possession of their best ports and harbors, thereby closing up the avenues through which they have had the means of occa sionally running our blockade. This takes away the cause of complaint that our blockade was imperfect, and therefore ought not to be respected by foreign gov ernment?. - There is another strong and powerful reason why the governments of the Old World should mind their own business and not interfere in our affairs. We shall have in a few weeks open ports at New Orleans, Port Hoyal, and Norfolk, and Fome cf tho other best harbors in the Southern country. To these ports For eign vessels can como and trade. If the lebels, instead of bringing their cotton to market, or allowing it to be sold, burn it up and destroy it, it will not be our fault, neither can our government in any cense be held accountable or responsible for such a result. There is still another reason why for eign governments should jut at this par ticular juncture, keep hands off. Our government has been for week? demon strating to the world that we arc able to make an end ot this rebellion, and bring the traitors to terms. Our army opera tions have been a succession of Union victories. The back of this unholy rebel lion is evidently broken. We have only to follow up our victories with determined, vigorous action to make an end of the war in a few short month?. It needs no prophetic eye to see that Foreign intervention would tend to pro long the struggle, and embarrass all our operations. .For these reasons we can but consider An official interference, on the part cf cither , England or France, with our domestic affairs, au insult to the roverumeut, which ought to Le indig nantly repelled. Wc arc in better condi tion now to talk to England than wo were jit the time of the k Mason and. Slidell controversy. Then;; we were smarting under defeat ; now, wc are flushed with a lynJIit of brilliant victories. Our Navy U sow upon the waters, the mi-drc tho world ; our army is efficient and well disciplined, and a portion of it cun eocm he spared for ether operations if necessity tball require it. Wc ore now in very fair condition to "open correspondence" with any Foreign court. Therefore, the Ad ministration, if epproached upon the ques tion cf a settlement between tho govern ment and the rebels by a foreign power, should very politely give but one answer, viz : "Mind your own business, acd we will Uke care of the rebellion." . Rebel Insanity. Tho folly of the rebels, in ninny partic ulars, is full of madness. Tho leaders are not only desperate, but insane. All their ' reasoning in relation to their own inter- bent on their own destruction. They not only forget all honorable rules of warfare recognized among civilized nations, but spend their fury upon their own heads, whenever they fancy it will prejudice us, -or tend to give them favor among foreign nations. They profess to be fighting for their "sacred soil but they lose no op portunity, upon the approach of our troops, to desecrate it to the most ruinous purpo ses. They say they arc fighting for their homes and firesides; yet they apply to them the torch, and burn up villages and towns, just as if incendiarism was a holi day pastime. They boast of their beauti ful forests, and in the next breath, with the ruthless hand of the barbarian, level to the ground the mighty growth of ages. They spend " millions upon two iron clad steamers, and then blow them up. They build their gunboats, and then apply the fuse which sends them to total destruc tion. They have expended their millions upon railroads and railroad bridges, and yet it is a common every, day occurrence to destroy in a single day the work of years. The blockade and other inciden tal causes connected with the war, have reduced them to comparative starvation ; but the leaders, with the mutinous cry for bread coming up from starving millions, burn up what little is left cf the staff of life. The two great articles of export in the South cotton and tobacco which could now be marketed from the ports opened by our recent victories, are burned or thrown into the rivers to be destroy ed. Thus the rebel leaders in the South are, by force of martial rule and the law ot despotism, aided by a reign of terror which has no prototype in the history cf the world, robbing the people of all they have, and reducing them to absolute beggary. The deluded men who follow the lead of that arch destroyer and wholesale assas sin, Jeff. Davis, are made to belie7e that the destruction of their private property will, in the end, be the loss of the govern ment, and not of individuals. This fa natical delusion prompts them to the worst acts of EelSdestruction ; they pile up their bales of cotton, and then apply the torch, with just as little apparent compunction as if they were firing a heap of faggots, and away goes, with the puffing of a single breath, the only available resources left to save them frjm poverty and starvation. Instead of selling their tobacco, they throw it into streams, until the waters thereof are made' muddy with its narcotic stains and coloring. Thus these fool-hardy rebels go on de stroying their own property sending to destruction the accumulation of years, and making their land a barren waste. They drink in ruin just as greedily as a thirsty ox drinks from the water brooks. Rea son, among the traitors, has lost its throne, while perfect madness a wanton delusion rules the hour. In their diabolical ef forts to destroy the federal government, they are fast destroying themselves. In material prosperity the rebel States have rolled back a half a century. They Eccm left to be controlled by a deep seated mal jce a passion that heretofore has been attributed only to devils, a fury that has no parallel this bide the very gates of per dition. 5, Attend the People's County 'Mas.?

Tho retreat cf Gcu Vallev of Virginia, of Banks from the which we cave a brief account laat week, is acknowledged by military cfScar3 as one of the most succossful'on record. The following par ticulars are given of the commencement of tho battle at Front Hoy ul : Though it commenced on Friday, at noon, by afetrong dash of cavalry, under command of the famous Ashby, on the position takeu 'by Col. Kenley, about a mile',, east of the Shenandoah. After a fight of two hours the enemy was repulsed, with heavy loss, and driven back some distance. Finding that a large force of infantry was coming to Ashby's aid, and moving so ns tosur round him, Col. Kenley ordered his men to fall back to the west side of the Shen andoah, and to destroy the bridges after them. This was done in good order, and the tinalfer bridge was destroyed, but the flankiug force of the enemy came upon them before the longer bridge could be destroyed, and Col. Kenley immediately got his guns in position aud his men in line of battle to prevent the crossing of the river. Another fight here took place, which lasted two hours, and the enemy was again repulsed with heavy loss. Finding that no reinforcements ' arrived, Col. Kenley, wounded by a ball in the neck at the first assault, addressed his men. and urged them, that although as sailed by a force at least five times their own numbers, to keep together to the last, otherwise they would be run down and slaughtered by the enemy's cavalry. Then, placing his artillery in the rear, he commenced to fall back, but before he had gone three miles they were again overtaken by the enemy, formed in line of battle, and the artillery opened a de structive fire on them. At thi3 moment a portion of Ashby's cavalry was obser ved approaching with a white flag, as if desiring a parley, when Col. Kenley "or dered his men to cease firing. They were allowed to advance"" within 'pistnl ranjre, when the white flag "was thrown down and a blue or black flag raited, and a charge from several quarters made on the exhausted men. All of ' those who escaped persist that the cry of the enemy was "No quarter," aud that the wounded wero bayonetted as they lay on the field ! Col. Kenley is represented as having fought desperately, and, wounded as he was, succeeded in cutting his way through the ranks of the enemy, and had not pro ceeded far when ho fell from his. horse from the effects of a severe saber wound that he received in this last engagement, lie was lifted up aud placed in an ambu lance, and had not proceeded far before they were again overtaken by the enemy, and a volley of musketry poured into the ambulance, killing both horse and driver, and it i3 supposed impossible for the Col. to have survived this last assault. After our lines were broken, Col. Kenley direc ted his men to secure their own safety," and cut his way through the cavalry who had surrounded him. This course,' on his part, cives some color to the assertion that the enemy had declared his intention ef giving "no quarter," otherwise this gallant aud experienced officer would, i:i this last extremity, have been justified in surrendering him.-elf and command as prisoners of war. The force of the enemy was estimated at from 15.000 to 20,000 men, with very strong artillery and cav alry supports. The Federal force consis ted of two brigades, less than 4,000 strong, all told, 1,500 cavalry, ten Parrott guns, and six smooth bores. The substantial preservation of the entire supply is a source of gratification . It numbered about 500 wagons on a forccdumarch of 53 miles, 35 of which were performed in ope day, subject to constant attack in front rear, and flank, according to' its position, by the enemy in full force. The panics, of teamsters and the mischances of "river passage of more than 300 yards, kvith slender preparations for ford and. ferry, we lostot more than 50 wagons, many of them almost worthless. ; The Latest from Gen. Banks.- A dispatch received this morning at the; War Department, states that a brigade of our troops, proceeded by four companies of the Rhode Island Cavalry, re-entered Front ltoyal on Saturday morning at II o'clock, and drove tho eueiuy, consisting of three regiments of infantry, and a body of cavalry. We captured six officers and 200 privates. Wc re-captured eighteen of our men, taken prisoners at Front Royal by the enemy. Our advance was so rapid that the enemy was surprised, and there fore was not able to burn the bridge over the Shenandoah. A dispatch from Gen. Banks to the Secretary of War, states that the Fifth New York Cavalry, Colonel Deforest, re-entered Martinsburg on Sat urday morning, and passed several miles beyond, where they encountered the cav alry of the enemy and captured 40 priso ners, a wagon load of muskets and ammu nition, and an American flag. Colonel Deforest reports that Colonel Kenley is at Winchester, badly wounded. ... . ' From the West we have received, the glorious' intelligence of the evacuation of Corinth.

This morning he destroyed an immense amount of publhj and private " property, stores, wagons, tents, &e. For miles out of the towa the roads are filled with arms, hav ersacks, &c., thrown away by hi3 flying troop3.. ,A large number of prisoners and deserters have been captured, estimated by General Pope, at 3,000. Gen. Beau regard evidently distrusted his army, or he would havo defended so strong a posi tion. His troops are generally uiuoh dis couraged and demoralized. In all their engagements for the last few days, their resistance has been weak." A dispatch from Cairo, dated May 31, says : . A Memphis refugee, who left Fort fright on Tuesday last, arrived to day, lie says the rebels have 1,500 ar tillerists garrisoning the fort, and that in consequence of the scarcity of coal, most of the rebel gunboatshad been abandoned, and the guns taken to Fulton aud Fort Randolph. A strong pontoon bridge has been constructed by the rebels near Fort Wright, over which to retreat when ne- ccssary ! fmm the An Arkansas refugee arrived fleet to-day. He says Little Bock, the capital of the State, has been captured and is now occupied by the Uni ted States troops; that what citizens re maining were decidedly loyal to the Uni ted States Government. The Arkansas State Legislature had decamped on the appearance of the Federal forces. Gov ernor Rector had fled from the State, and is now in Jackson, Miss. Vicksburg had surrendered to the Federal fleet, and the gunboats were going up the river to de mand the surrender of Memphis, which, he says, is entirely unprotected and al most deserted. A special dispatch from Harper's Fer ry, dated Saturday, May 31, says : The 11th New York Militia has arrived here, but refused to be sworn in, much to the disgust ol their commander, Colonel Moed holi". The men stated that they wanted to go to Washington. Major Bower, of Gen Saxtou's staff, addressed them as follows : "Those of you willing to ac ktowledge yourselves cowards here in the face of the enemy, step out of the ranks." They did so, and were ordered to leave and pay their own way back to New York ! But few remained at Harper's Ferry. Gen. Saxton rejected the whole regiment, sa3Ting that he did not want cowards in his command. It is a German regiment. We have the intelligence of another terrific engagement before Richmond, in which the rebels were completely routed. Gen. M'Clellan telegraphs to tho War Department, from the field of battle, as follows : "We havo had a desperate bat tle, in which the corp1 of Generals Sum ner, Heintzleman and Keyes have been engaged against greatly superior numbers. Yesterday, (Saturday), the enemy taking advantage of a terrible storm which had flooded the Valley of the Chickahominy, attacked our troops on the right flank. Casey's division, which was in the first line, gave way unaccountably, and this caused a temporary confusion, during which the guns aud baggage were left, but Generals Heintzleman and Kearney most gallantly brought up their troops, which checked the ecemy, and, at the same time, however, succeeded by great exertions in bringing across Sedgwick and Richardson's divisions, who drove back the enemy at the point ot the bayo net, covering the ground wi.h his dead. Thia ' morning, (Sunday) the enemy at tempted to renew the conflict, but was 'everywhere ' repnhed ! We have taken a great many prisoners, among whom are General Pettigrew and Col. Long. Our loss is heavy, but that of the enemy must be enormous. With the exception of Ca sey's division, the men behaved splendid ly.. Several fine bayonet charges have been made. The Second Excelsior made two to day. During the conflict, Prof. Lowe's balloon was overlooking the terri ble scene from an altitude of two thousand feet and rendered invaluable aid in tele graphing the movements of the enemy. This is believed to be the first time that a balloon reconnoisance has been success fully made during a battle, and certainly the first in which a telegraph station has been established in the air to report the movements of the enemy and the progress of a battle." The latest news from Corinth state that the. -enemy succeeded in carrying away everj'thing except a few provision?, which, with the warehouses and railroad depot, were burned before we arrived. They took every invalid from the hospital and every letter from the Post Office. The rebel fortification. were seven miles long. The rebel rear guard uuder Gen. Bragg, 10,000 strong, marched southward at midnight. Citizens positively assert that Beauregard was there in person and left with the rear guard.

If this war were like any ether that ever was or will be, we think the events of tho last few days would excite general amaze--ment. Tho dash of the rebels on Gen. Banks, compelling tne flight of his great ly outnumbered force down the Shenan doah Valley, excited apprehensions at Washington, which, however disavowed and derided now, "were very real, and to our view very reasonable. . It was suppo sed that the great body of the rebels in Virginia, while amusing Gen. M'Clellan with a promise of a desperate resistance in front of Richmond, had slipied away, leaving that place to fall finally with but a shadow of resistance, while they made a rush upon the line of the Potomac, ho ping to clutch the vast amounts of muni tions and . provisions collected in and around Washington and Baltimore, and perhaps to inaugurate their long threat ened oliensive by a demonstration upon Philadelphia or the rich .region around Lancaster and Ilarrisburg. It now seems that they were far less enterprising -and audacious than was inferred by many a few days since, but that does not make the inference unwise or improbable. The Government called on the North for Militia to meet the new exigency; and the call was promptly and nobly responded to. Had that call beeu simply persisted in, or left unmodified, a force of fully One Hundred Thousand Men, the flower of the North, uniformed and tolerably drilled by companies aud regiments, would have poured into Washington and" Baltimore at the rate of five thousand per day for the next twenty' days, ready for three months' good service, and a little prefer ring that it -should include some fighting than that it should be restricted to digging trenches and standing guard. And this Hundred Thousand would have nowise impeded the recruiting of another like number-to serve for the War. All our Generals commanding in the field ask for more men. Gen. M'Clellan's delay in front of Richmond is only expli cable on the assumption that he wants more men. Gen. M'Dowell has stopped a month at Fredericksburg . for the same reason. M'Dowell's brigades have been drawn away in answer to the urgent rep resentation of M'Clellau, and Banks weak ened to fill the consequent gaps in M'Dow ell's lines, until "Stonewall Jackson" has been enabled easily to chase Banks out of the A'alley, with a loss of most of his sick and wounded, a good part of his munitions, and a third of his force. Gen. Buruside could soon restore North Carolina to the Union if he had ten thousand more men. Gen. Hunter is cooped up in the Sea Islands of South Carolina, when with three more brigades he could take Charleston aud stop the last and worst of the Rebel runaways through which they receive arms and munitions. Gen. Hal Icck stands still at Corinth, evidently desiring more men. Gen. Curtis is obliged to arrest his easy conquest of Arkansas and go to the support of Gen. Ualleck's demonstration on Corinth. Aud worst of all, East Tcuue$ee patriotic, heroic, bleeding , dying must remain un der the heel of 1 er cruel oppressors for the want of a few thousand men. To all human apprehension, the One Hundred Thousand Militia which the Government is now offered and refuses, would suffice -to turn the scale at every doubtful point and crush out the armies of the rebel lion. . - But God's way is best, and He seems to have decided that it is not so important that the Rebellion fhall be suppressed soon as that it shall be thorougnly and radically exterminated. The heaits of rulers and of generals are in His hands, and the issues of campaigns are subordi nate to the consummation of His purposes. But for this, the traitors would have been defeated at Bull Run. as with tolerable management on our side they must have been, when a Pro-Slavery counter-revolution at the South would have restored the Union as it was, and saved its animating soul for further mischief. Had our ar mies been handled half as well as our fleets have been, the war would long since have been over, and the Cotton States once moie dictating and bullving in Con gcess. It is not thus, because it is not best that it should be. Let us trustfully work and wait. The National sins which have brought this fearful calamity of civil war upon us are in the blood aud cannot be expelled iu a dav. It takes time to educate a Nation out of a contempt aud hatred for Four Millions of People "which have been in grained for several generations. When the core of the disease is removed, its issues will dry up and disappear. This may yet be soon enough to save the Nation from dismembermcut ; if not, it will be soon enough to reunite it. The Slave holding Aristocracy has fully determined never more to cast in its lot with "mud sills" so vulgar and lost to self-respect as to consent to be governed by rail splitters and such like low-bred creatures. It cannot as a caste be conciliated ; to be conquered, it must be overthrown. If another year of suffering and devastation is requisite to reuder this truth palpable, let us patiently wait aud work. A'eic Yurie Tribune. 3 Lieut. Worden, cun, at prcscut, see with only one eye, but he can see more with that than any rebel commodore can see with a pair.

The motion in Congress id reconsider the vote on confiscation annoys and arous es the animosity of those who had hoped that the vote recently had in the House, by which the measure was .rejected, was a final and decisive defeat of the purpose. Congress begins to awaken to the necessi ty of doing more than provide, men and money. to crush this rebellion!'. The peo ple themselves feel-that it is worse than insane to piosecute this-war. without also waging it in a manner to cripple, waste, overcome or destroy our adversary.'. ' This can only -be done by "depriving that ad versary of his 'resources.- Tho idea of marching an army into an enemy's terri tory, protecting his means of defenee as that army advances, and embarrassing our sreuerals with instructions- discriminating as to what is or what is not property, ha3 no parallel ?:i the history of warfare. The rebels t!.sj,elvesfeel this, and laugh at our foLy as they maintain their property in human flesh. They feel that the men who oppose confiscation, are doing more to assist rebellion to success, than an armed force of a hundred thousand dough faces could accomplish ; so that the subject has resolved itself into the question whether' the government shall - continue to 'trifle with traitors at the expense of thousands of lives and millions of dollars, or whether we shall proceed at once to crush rebellion. Our armies have proven their superiority over the rebels, but this inequality is made up by the inexaustible supply ot support which the rebel, army is daily deriving Irom slave labor."" That labor contributes to all the wants of the south. Its white inhabitants will be able to fight until doomsday, as long as their slave labor is protected by the federal government, and the property which the traitors have in slaves is exempted from confiscation. In this view, the question becomes fully practical, and when viewed thus the ne cessity of confiscation becomes iuiporalive. Congress begins to regard it as such, if we. may infer from the resolution to re consider the subject. We : repeat, agaid, that the opposition to this bill, at least so far as the Breckin ridge leaders in the loyal states are con cerned, is mainly and solely an additional assurance of their sympathy for the rebel lion. They have hoped all along that the resources of the federal government would become exhausted that the supply of free labor would fail, and that, eventu ally, by thus harrassing the people and embarrassing the government, the patience of loyal men would weary, and rebellion certainly triumph. With the slaves of rebels exempted from confiscation, rebel masters could afford to fight and contrib ute towards the maintenance of rebellion. But with that property destroyed with the claim to title in human flesh abrogated treason becomes an insignificant foe to lib erty, and traitors will soon vanish from the soil of the south. The National Debt. A financial statement, understood to be semi-official, was recently presented during the course of a debate in the House of Congress, showing the expenditures of the government since Mr Lincoln's ac cession to the Presidency. It exhibited the fact that the entire national debt up to Friday last, amounted to less thau 8500,000,000, instead of nearly 81,200, 000,000, as stated by Mr. Voorhees. It also showed that aside from the War and Navy Departments, the expenses of the Government under Mr. Lincoln have been less by over 88,000,000 than the av erage yearly expenditure of the same branches of the Government under . Mr. Buchanan!" It " is "fashionable for ii"cla?s of politicians who profess to be loyal and who proclaim themselves as (lie Democra cy, constantly, of late, to berate the gov ernment on the score of its exoenditures, and thus, of course, seek the consternation of the people by asserting the enormity of the taxes which must follow to liquidate and sustain such great expenditures. The object of this outcry was to produce dis satisfaction. If the people could be indu ced to believe that the extravagances of the government were the cause of taxa tion, a similar rebellion might be possible in the North in resisting all efforts to gather these taxes, and in thi3 manner the rebellion of the slavenolders would be hurried to success. It was a well laid scheme, worthy of the Democratic politi cians who concocted its plans; and we ma' be indebted to its failure for the present success which is now crowning the Southern progress of our flag. Let it then be kept before the people, that the expenses of the first year of the administration of Abraham Lincoln, aside from those growing out of our mili tary operations, were not as larce by eight millions of dollars1 as those under the ad ministration ot James Buchanan for tho same term. Let it also be kept before the people, that the cause of the enormous expenses growing out of these military operation?, can be directly traced to the Democratic party and the administration of James Buchanan. This is the best answer that can pos sibly be made to the ehifts and misrepre scntators of the Democratic organs and leaders on the subject of the expenses of the government. The Democratic party is responsible for all the burdens which may grow out of these expenses. Let tho leaders of that party, then; pay their quo ta of these expenses in the shape of the taxation which is about to bo levied, find forever hereafter hold their peace in re gard to corruption aud extravagancy.
