In times of revolution governments do not alone totter and fall. Opinions and morals are shaken the thoughts of men are turned out of their ordinary channels, and often a wild delirium seizes hold of communities, and extends to those who govern them. The popular branch of a government is peculiarly sensitive to exterior influences, whether of passion or alarm.

It is on snch occasions that the conservative powers of the Government are called ino exercise to restrain harmful inpuk es. The failure to exercise them reduces government to a condition little better than anarchy. Tbe passage of the cotton bill by the House of Representatives of this State suggests these reflections. It is ostensibly designed for the relief of the cotton planters, and makes a merit of that pnrpoee by meretriciously parading it in its title, yet they are no where mentioned in the body of the bill. It extends its relief to all owners, whether they be speculators or not, and invites them to the door of the treasury, whence is to issue an immense and profuse mass of promises to pay," Which must one day all come back for payment.

It will flood the whole State with parer which will not be found adequate to the purposes for which it is professedly de-fcicned, which will either itself depreciate in value, or what is the rame thing, require double quantity to pay for all commodities. Ten millions of dollars of notes vil! be catered far and wide, offering temptations to ex-trayaance, recklegnnees, and ultimately leading to ruin. It will prostrate tUe credit the State for half a century, and deprive her of the golden opportunity of realizing that magnificent future, which is eoon to be opened to her, by the trade oi her n-incipal city with Europe, and tbe iuvit ition to for.ign capitalists to iuveet iu lier hitherto solvent securities, to which th-y would be prompted by reliance on nutarniolied faith. It will defeat the very object its framcrs proiees to have in view. The planter, chutiug under the tsvo and a half per cent.

With such consequences, or even probable results, the probability of its passage by the Senate may well appal all thinking men.

At our present writing no vote has been taken in that body, indicating the result, but the majority in the Honse was large, and may well induce a fear that the Senate may yield, too, to the outside pressure, or to the imperious demands of a class for legislation in its behalf. Should this calamitous event occur, but one obstacle remains to be interposed to prevent unnumbered woes falling npon Louisiana the veto of the Governor. We know the Executive has the firmness to discharge his duty. We hope nay that expression is not sufficiently earnest for our solemn conviction at this moment of peril we pray fervently that his opinion of the bill may be such as to induce him to withhold his assent from it. If he believes it wrong, we know his character too well to suppose that he will hesitate a moment It will bring down a furious popular clamor, but they who will most malign him now will in the future thank him with grateful hearts for saving them from destruction.

The Nashville Hospitals. With the increasing prospects of an early battle at Bowling and the augmen-. tatlon of the Confederate forces in Kentucky, the needs of the hospitals at Nashville, continue to increase. We make no excuse for renewing our calls npon the attention of the people of New Orleans, to their interest and duty, in contributing to the support of the voluntary establishments which are devoting themselves in that city to the care of the sick soldiers of the Confederacy, and preparing to take care of those who may be hurt in the battle-field in our caaee. To guide the contributions of our people aright it may be necessary to state again that there are two associations in Nashville, both nnder the care of benevolent ladies of that city, acting without rivalry, and in the moat kindly relations, but independently of each other.

The division of labor was once thought to be inexpedient, but it is found to work well in practice, and to lighten, materially, the toils of superintendence. One of these societies is entitled the Tennessee Hospital Association, of which Mrs. Dr Shelby is President, and Mrs. Leonidas Polk Vice-President. The other is the Soldier's Relief Society," under the Presidency of Mrs.

Felicia Grundy Porter, a ladv whote name designates her as daughter of the late Tennessee Senator, the famous Felix Grundy. Both societies are composed of Nashville ladies of the best class in society, animated by that fervor of patriotie zeal in tbe cause of independence which has distinguished tbe women of the South in this boly war. It has been loosely stated, more than once in the press, that all the hospitals were nnder the charge of one of these associa te Lions only bnt such statements were news paper inadvertences, and have never been sanctioned by the officers of either. They have each their separate lines of duty, which do not interfere with each other, aBd each has in this city an agent fully accredited, through whom contributions may be rent, with perfect confidence, and with equal asturance that they will be gratefully received and faithfully appropriated. Thoee the Tennessee Hospital Association, the society ot wmcn airs, bnsioy is trreeident, are under the charge of Mr.

J. J. Hanna, at 130 Magazine street. The Soldiers' Belief Society receives contributions here, through Mr. Henry W.

Conner, and for more speedy transmission of such supplies as are best sent by water, Pickett, Wormeley Co. are agents in Memphis. Through either of these sources, what may be sent will be forwarded with alacrity, and dispensed for the good of the cause with with thankfulness and faithfulness. Three-Story Brick House For Rent.

Norfolk, Jan. 14 The severe gale of the 13th, of which mention was made under our telegraphic yesterday, still continues, accompanied by a fall of snow, without any prospect of immediate cessation. Buineide's naval expedition, reported as being off the coast, is believed here to have been destroyed. A few of the vessel are in Hampton Roads, but the majority of the fleet are outside. It is considered here as being utterly impossible that they can endure this storm.

p- From Richmond. Latest News from Various Points. Richmond, Jan. 14. Nothing -is publicly known of the proceedings in Congress to day.

For several days much speculation has baen indulged in by the editors, ieporters, and others, upon the probable paxsae of au act restricting the liberty of the press, but nothing is known publicly, and considerable doubt is eireBsed as to the paexage of such an act. A report is circulated, and said to be reliable, that the Federalist evacuated Uomney Friday night, and the Confederates took ncBtethion early on Saturday, caaturiog a lare quantity of military stores left by thej federals. A heavy bdow storm prevajj-a" here last night, and this morn ijii-j Vile streets are very slippf ryJi-irtleeting to uixht.

The health of tbe command has greatly improved and large accessions bave been made by the convalescents returning to their duty. Snow, hail and rain prevailed for eight days, accompanied by heavy wiud, and which still continued. Tbe Norfolk Day Book learned late las night from a reliable source that the Barn-aide expedition bad not returned to Hampton Roads. The Chicago Journal, of the 9th inst, says Private advices from Washington state Jim Lane will reach Chicago at an early day, on his route for Kansas to take command of 25,000 men, 6,000 of whom are cavalry, designed for a grand expedition along the Arkansas border into Texas simultaneous with the movement of the other division of the Federal invading army."

K. ThomasBy, for the manufac ture of saltpetre, was referred. Mr. Lott's bill to amend the revenue laws was reported upon favorably by the Committee on Finance, with amendments. The Committee on Finance reported favorably by substitute on Mr.

Wall's bill, prohibiting the issuance for circulation of notes and checks not payable in specie, except by chartered banks of the State and the cities of New Orleans and Baton Ronge. The Committee on Education reported favorably on Mr. Salomon's bill, relative to the free school system of this State. Mr. Laidlaw'e bill, authorizing the Gover nor to proclaim martial law in this State at any time daring the existing war, was paeeed.

In the House, joint resolutions offered by Mr. Coleman were adopted by acclamation, acknowledging tbe indebtedness and express ing tbe thanks of this State for the noble patriotism and devotion of the women of this State, and of the Southern Confederacy. A bill offered by Mr. Elam to amend the revenue was referred to a special committee. Mr.

McDonald offered two bills, one to pro vide for the payment of the principal and interest of the Confederate war tax assumed by this State, and the other to provide for the deficiency in the State treasury. These bills are oflered as substitutes for the bill from the Finance Committee to raise money for the State treasury. They were all sent to the Finance Committee. air.

Referred Mr. Breithaupt introduced a bill to prohibit the exportation of cotton, until the blockade is raised, from the port of New Orleans or any other point within the limits of Louisiana, which was referred to the Committee on Commerce and made the special order for Friday next. The special order of to-day was the bill for the relief of the sugar planters, which was discussed at great length. The bill appropriates three million dollars in State Treasury notes, and its general provisions are the same as those of the cotton bill.

A motion by Mr. Estlin, to strike out the enacting clause, was lost ayes 23, noes 51. The first section was adopted ayes 45, noes 19. Tne discussion continues in the evening session. A Timely Publication.

On his arrival in New York, the released Congressman Ely was waited upon by a delegation of citizens, one of whom addressed him briefly. Ely is reported to have remarked, in the course of his reply, to the case of Col.

Corcoran in very affecting terms. Alter this interview was over, he addressed a crowd in front of the hotel, and in the coarse of remark expressed the opinion that Oen. McCIellan had too much to do which we take to be a fact, if an Abolitionist Congressman did say it- We may add that it is probable McCIellan has a great deal more to do than he will ever be able to accomplish. Ely was strong for going ahead with the war, however, at whatever cost. If he had learned anything in the past, be said, it is that we are fighting a people terribly in earnest." A Washington correspondent writes to a New York paper as follows The agitation o' the great question of the times viz What to do with the negroes in this war 1 continues to absorb men's minds, both in and out of Con gress.

Tne Idea ol colonization, rattier than recommended in tbe message of the President, finds much favor in certain quarters, although surrounded with practical difficulties so great as to render its adoption very improbable. The friends of the measure are busy in mapping out the territory lor their New Africa. Florida is absurdly proposed by some as if a tract of country, which is a mere congeries of coral reels, and which any large population but alligators would starve without supplies from abroad, were adapted to sustain millious of consumers, ignorant of tbe arts of life. Others much more reasonably prpo. mmm.

wtesoti is I bss capable of supporting a large population whether white or black and is, perhaps, the best adapted of all the States tor such a purpose if a State ia to be taken. The ptau proposed is, to reduce Texas to the tUitvt of a territory, as a just penalty for her share in this rebellion, aud then to colonize the territory by law of Congress with, the emancipated slaves. Ot course, no State, possessing and exercising the power of a State government, would open its territory to receive such uu uuwe-lcoule immigration. The thiug must be done, if done upau United States soil at all, by force of the authority of the general government, aud upon soil directly within its control. Judge Betts, of the U.

The judge condemned the three-fourths of the vessel owned in Wilmington, N. released the one-fourth owned by a New York owner. The loyal owner made a claim against the Southern shares for a rateable proportion of the advances made by him on account ot the vessel. The judge overruled this claim, deciding that the forfeiture was auperior to all liens and equities, and the remedy of the loyal part owner (if any must be had upon application to the Secretary of the Treasury.

The New York Herald's Fortress Monroe correspondent, nnder date of the 30th gives the following as a true acceunt of the recent arrest and searching of a lady, who took passage at Old Point, for Baltimore, to meet her affianced, a gentleman of that city On the steamboat Georgians, Capt. Pelrson, plying between Old Point and Baltimore, an episode bap pened while making her usual trip on Saturday night from here, which nipped some of Jeff.

Davbye operations in the d. Among some ladies oaming from Norfolk by i' of trace, was one masculine-lookiog woman, registered as Mrs. Baxley, who said ihe waa bound to Baltimore Capt. Pbineaa A. Davis, our efficient Provost Marshal eyed thia woman with suspicion, and communicated bis distrust to bis assistant, Charles W.

Rrlgham, who runs regularly on tbe Georgians. hen tbe flag of trace came up it was almost time U-i the departure of tbe Baltimore boat, and in consequence of that no strict examination of tbe passengers' effects could be had at that time. The baggage, letters, of tbe passengers, were sound to bs correct, and the boat was allowed to proceed. Mrs. Baxley appeared gay on the passage, and at tbe breakfast table the next morning ahe made some remarka wbiob attracted the attention of Mr.

Brigham, who asked her jocosely whether she waa a secessionist? To which ahe answered, Yes." After the gang plank waa run oat, tbe boat having landed at Baltimore, Mrs. Bailey was heard to say that ahe thanked God that be bad arrived borne safe," and when about ateppiug ashore, Mr. Brighaoa tapped her on tbe shoulder, and requested her attendance in the ladies' cabin. As soon as the room was reached she took off her bonnet, between tbe lining of whieh was found upwards of fifty letters aewed in, and ahe exclaimed that, having been found out, ahe though it best to deliver over the contrabands," and be allowed to proceed on ker way. But Mr.

Brigbam insisted upon it that ahe bad others, when in her shoes and stockings numerous tber letters were also found. Tbe lady was hereupon clorely gnurded until the Provost Marshal of Baltimore waa informed of tbe circumstance, wbea be at once sent a lady to examine Mrs. Baxley with more ac rutin Almost every possible place abent her clethlng was filled wiih letters from Seeeaala for rebel sympathisers ia Baltimore but In net oorset waa sound document which, when taken by the lady axamla-J the MMggie-, Mrs. Baxley rushed at her, and getting hold of tbe paper tore it ia two. The lady examiner rosiest at Mrs.

at tbe same time ealliug assistance. Mrs. Briakam, who stood outaide while tks operation waa going oa, rushed into the saloon and found Mrs. Baxley Mora dm combat, bat vanquished, and tbe document, though torn, is ia the possession of tbe Provost Marshal's Aid. Tbe document proved to be a commission from Jeff.

Davia to a Dr. Septimus Brown, of Baltimore, also passes and direction for him to ruu the Federal blockade, in order to gain the rebel domains. The other documents in the keeping of thia female smuggler proved to be a treasonable correspondence, and by this time some of the implicated parties are cleanly watched, if not already immured in a duuieon. Dr. Septimus Brown waa immediately taken prisoner and turned over to tbe tender mercies of Col.

Morris, at Fort MrHenry. Mrs. Bsxley was taken to a hotel and several police officers placed on guard over her. While locked ia her room ahe dropped a note out of her window addressed to ber lover, (the rebel doctor,) imploring him, for God's sake, to fly, as all waa discovered. She was also quite disheartened, and said that ahe had braved all dangers for the sake of ber lover, and, when on the point ol having accomplished all ber cherished desires, tbe citp of happiness waa dashed from her lips as she was about drinking from it.

It seemed to be ber only and darling desire to get ber lover Into the rebel army, aud, having succeeded, she waa only detected in her nefarious transactions when about completing her mission. She stated that when tbe flag of truce neared Old Point she was apprehensive that she might be detected here, but the provost marshal having passed ber so lightly, ahe did not apprehend further In a memorandum book it was found that this fair speciir.cn of a rebel was taken across the Potomac by a negro, in a skiff, where a rebel lieutenant awaited, and carried her to Richmond Barbarity of LJnroInite Troops. It ettnis almost incredible that such conduct as is detailed in the following letter could possibly occur in a country professing to be civilized, and in thia a9 of the world. Yet we bave the Lest authority lor believing the carrfitive, in ail its hideous details, be ucth'rp more nor lep? than the exact truth. A clergyman of the Episcopal Church, resident in one of the parishes of thia State, in a note to the Rev.

Mr. Mott, the editor of the Church Intelligencer, published at ltaleigh, Ncrth Cari-Hna, aakiug for its publication in that journal, whence we take it, says, "the following letter was received bjMaw- (wife of tbe clewjf-tlTaii alluded to) "from her faV.W'r: obe haa two Dingle teeters livinir at the old licnieetead, two and a hVif miles from Alexandria, Virginia, on the Occoquan road. It ia most ead and heart-rending in ita details, and, pei hape, may be of service to our cause, if published." We comply with the request of a reverend gentleman of the Epiecopal Church, in thia city, to reproduce tbe letter in our columns Fast Day, A'or. 15, 1861. -what liery trials we have passed through siiice we last comniuuit-uted with you! The whole summer, we bave had nothing but one continued scene of robberies aud outrsges, violence and wrongs.

We are not allowed to go outside our own iuclosure, without a pass from headquarters, and sometimes a pats is not given us for weeks. Sometimes, for days aud days, we have been obliged to feed our whole family ou potatoes not allowed to go to mill, and, at times, Charles would take a bag of corn on his back, aud watcb his opportunity to avoid the pickets, and go stealthily through the woods, and fields, and have it ground. One day, early in summer, we got a pass, and Y. and I went to town and, in returning, we were detained by the guards three hours, on the road. When we got home, they told as of such deeds of horror and outrage, that had been committed on the servants, aud as would make the very blood freeze in your veins, by lour of these vile creatures, called soldiers, in an open field by the side of the public road, and Cxsar was obliged to stand by and witness it.

At another time, five or six would come to the house, burst open the door, and say they intended searching tbe house they wanted something to eat, and would bave it If we did not give it to them, they would break open everything, and take what they pleased. Tbey would point tbeir guns at us, and plunge at as with their bayonets and threaten to kill us on the spot, if we dared remonstrate. One day they came aud scattered over the place. Tbey flew to the coops, seized the bens, with chickens, and, in spite of all we could say, would wring their heads of! before our faces. Tbey killed all our ducks killed the pigs tore all the fruit off tbe trees, lemons aud oranges, green aud ripe.

There is nothing that escaped their thievish hands. You must not think this was coniined to the common soldiers far, in almost every instance, an officer was with them. Oue time, three officers came, aud did not leave until after dark, and then took both our carriage horses. Sometimes a dozen will come and seat themselves nnder tbe tamarind tree, when we are on tbe porch, and tell (a negro girl) she is the prettiest girl they bave seen, and offer to kiss her, and beg ber to go with them to the North, aud they will marry her. Tbey use the most vulgar, obscene, and blasphemous language.

spoke to an old man for using the name of Jesus in such a profane manner. He stepped up to her and stretched his eyes and said, he waa a better man thaa Jeses Christ." I cannot see bow such vile creatures are suffered to live. 1 sometimes wonder the earth don't open aud swallow them up. About four Weeks ago, six of the officers came galloping up to our house, dismounted, examined the premises thoroughly, measured the well, and then walked in, sent their names up, aud requested to see the owner of the place. went down, and waa scarcely seated before she said, Have you not laid waste enough land to encamp your men ou, without destroying the only home of two unprotected and uu-ofleudina ladies He replied, it is a military necessity and must be Another one came in and tbe first said to bim, th 1'T objects to our pauhn vwwT encampment here." He remarked, very carelessly, It is an important site and must be occupied you had better vacate your house aud rent one iu town She told litin "we bad uo other house, and no means to rent a house with that tbis war bad deprived us of all other resources except the produce of this farm." Sbe wrung her hands, aud hegned them, 1'or mercy's sake, not to put them here." But they were just as stern and cold ns stone.

She saya one of them, when lie saw ber distress, actually liugheil in her face. Ot" all heartless creatures, they do exceed. 1 did not think there were sm-h peopl on the face of the earth. No laucuae I could use would convey to vou the least idea of what we have suffered from Uiese wri-u hen. Their insults, outrages aud thefts hive ni been cute or twice, but daiiy aud hourly.

We have been afraid, for weeks, to go outside oar garden gate, and many days afraid to open the frout door. The bullets often come wbistllug over our heads into the yard and garden, and several have been picked up at tbe kitchen door. On the 30th September, a whole brigade was encamped upon our land, and around us, as near us the bottom of tbe garden. I am sure $2mjo would not replace the fencing that has been toru down aud destroyed. Kvery stick of our beautiful timber and wood has been cut, aud four have been burning it, in quantities, for the last wcek3.

We never, iu cur lives, had such a prospect for ciops but all has been stolen or destroyed. The whole place has been perfectly torn to pieces. Vou would never know it. There is a fort made where the woods were, to the right of the hottte, in a liue ith the upper gate au immecse entrenchment, from the cider press, torough the vegetable gardeu, wt-at of the barn, through our corn field to tbe public road, tbeuce muning diagonally across our next neighbors tield, extending nearly as far as the lied House. When ttese creatures first took possession of the town, nearly all our friends and acquaiutances left fur the upper country, only taking their wearing apparel, and now every house that has not been entirely torn down is a perfect wreck doors and window-blinds torn ofl their hinges windows, steps, banisters, all torn to pieces mantel-pieees where they were of marble sent to the North pianos, carpets, furniture, eveiything packed up and sent North.

At one time, twelve large Roods-boxes were sent from Clermont (Com. Forrest's place the Commodore is at Norfolk) by Adams's Kxpress. I crfuld not begin to tell you of all tbeir vile doings. ISothini you see in tbe papers, no matter how extra it rosy seem, but what you may believe. One family dWea hot know what another suffers.

A short time ago, we h.A4. by accident, of one family, (the name of the Tsssslly is not mentioned, though a clue is given, and it is believed to be that of Mandere Masou, related to John Y. Mason: how nearly we cannot say,) where there were four ladies, two of them old anil infirm, several small children, and a number of servants. The master of the house was gone. We heard they were tattering everything from these vile soldiers, and three oi the family had died from diphtheria, taken from thes detestable Yankees, ana one of the sons was as ill as he could possibly be.

We determined to brave every thing; and get there if possible. There waa no way of riding. The roads are all thoroughly barricaded so, we putou our bonnets, took Milly, and sped on the wings of the wind. We baited for nothing afraid as death until we reached the door. There we were met with open arms.

I never saw any people so delighted as the poor creatures were to see ua. Tbey bad not seen the lace of any one for three months, but these brutes and, oh such tales, anch tales, as tbey had to tell It would make your very blood boil to bear them. In tbe first place tbeir house was searched, Which ae alarmed the eldest lady, ahe became paralyzed, and haa not been able to utter a sentence since. Then tbe lady of the bouse was arrested for receiving a note from a neighbor. Tben an armed guard of at least fifty men were placed around the house, tearing down all tbe fences, and turning in all the cattle on the crops killing tbe hogs, sheep, poultry, and every thing they pleased, with immense fires, cooking and eating their plunder.

The disease waa taken from them four of the servants died before we heard of it. And here were these four ladies, that np in this house, five miles from town not allowed a pass for themselves or servants; afraid, often, to go to the front door these creatures seated in both the front and back porch, swearing and using the moat blasphemous language, drinking whiskey and playing cards. At last a neighbor beard it. and found some means of getting to the house. He took tbe measure of their dead, bought their coffins, and took them as far as his house ia bis earn conveyance, and, from there, a man bad to them on his back for two mile, through tbe woods.

As won aa we got home, we represented the case to some oi the officers, and used our very best endeavors to get the road opened, (for we felt confident the son would die.) bat all to no purpose. Tbey said, "the case waa exaggerated, and the people were fools; and that was alt we got for our trouble. In two days aer the little boy died, and the good, kind neighbor opened! the road, with great labor and trouble. We felt it oar duty to go to the funeral, and oh! what a melancholy tight! that little humble train, following the ton of Barents, the very first people of the land, through the by-waya, ia the woods, tip and down immense hills, through swamps, cornfields, cewpens, and barn yards. I oaa-not describe to yon my feelings.

Bat yea must not think we have seated ourselves, passively, to receive all these wrongs and insults.

No, indeed. There ia sesreejy a man. of any note in the army, we have not written to, or had an interview with. Bat we have yet to see a gentleman among them, or one that has the most remote sense of honor, justice, or troth, and we have seen hundreds and hundreds of both men and officers. Later from Arizona, We glean the following from the Meeilla Times, of Dee.

19 The District Court for the First Judicial District of Arizona, Hon. Judge Hare presiding, commenced its session on tbe 9th. This is tbe first business session of a District Court in Arizona for a number of years. We are informed that a difficulty occurred between the Americans and Mexicans, at Pinoi Alto, a few days since. In the fight a 12-pound howitzer-was used.

Two Mexicans were wounded. Capt. Helm's company, the Arizona Guards, bave been-ordered to that point. Tbe small pox is prevailing at all points ia the Me-silla Valley, though generally in a mild form. It is prevailing to some extent, among the Confederate soldiers; one company having twelve sick with the disease.

I to this date two nave died iu tbe army. The sick are provided with comfortable quarters, and receive every care and attention. Tbe party we spoke of last week as being in pursuit of tbe Indians, have since returned. Tney only recovered some bOO ead of sheep, on account of being misled by the wily savages. The Arizona forces are at present all in comfortable quarters at Kort Fillmore aud the neighboring towuj of the Mesilla Valley.

Drilling seems to be tbe order of the dsy foot, mounted, aud battalion dritU. The regimeutal band of tbe 2d Texas M. muted Rifle regiaieut is stationed at Mesilla, consequently we are daily favored with the best ol music. Tne troops receive full rations, although we stippoie they will sou have once aud bacon taken out of the ration list; but Code Sam's storeho'iies in New Muxice are overflowing with these aa well as ail other army supplies. From Richmond.

We derive the following from the Richmond Examiner, of the 8ih and 9th We believe that a proposition has beeu made to Congress to extend the operations of the Paxpnrt i-reau to DurucM-a of political uuIhw. bv Unijirxd.ni n. tiou on tiie Hues of "our frontier. Tonrets is unaerstooa to nave loao" a large appropriation out of the Confederate Treasury to comply iu part, with treaty stipulations made ith the Indian tribes. These treaties are as yet uudivuified.

Tney are understood to comprise tbe Creeks, the Ctioutaw, and Cliickssaws, the Seiniuoles, the Cherokees, the Os8ie. the Quepaws, the Seuecas aud Shawuees, tbe Cau.sucbe and the Hesome Indians: Of tint aggregate amount appropriated by the act of Cougrei.H, the aum of $235,97 being the wbole aoiouut ot arrearages, auuual payments aud iuterevt due the several tiibes as on the" 30th of December last 1 ordered to be paid in coin, should the President to direct. We learn that tbe ait also makes an appropriation of $60,000 to purchase tbe coin. tt-e text six or seven days the Government will ship some one hundred and sixty or more Vaakee priscneis to the congenial reviou of Old Abe, iu ex uhange lor a like number of ours to be tent here. England's Programme.

The London Newe, of December 10th, says The Paris Patrie, of the 10th iuitantj receivet from London the following information, which it states to be "newt:" If tbe answer to the English note should not be favorable. Lord Lyons will leave Washington in three days, and will transmit the orders of his government to Admiral Mllue, who will in that case immediately leave Jamaica with bis squadron to take up a position at Norfolk, a Virginia post ou the confines of Carolina, which will be the basis of the English naval operations. France, we are assured, will maintain an attitude of armed neutrality. Admiral Milne will leave at Havana a division of frigates destined to take part in the operations against Mexico. Seven ships of war, recently armed, bave already started, oue alter the other, for tbe Antilles, and it is thought that aft the vessels ordered to reinforce Admiral Milne will be at Jamaica from the 23th to tbe oOth of December.

In case tbe Washington Cabinet should surrender the prisoners taken from tbe Trent, that affair will, of course be settled but a new question will then be raised by Lord Lyons, viz whether the blockade of the Southern porta is effective, and negottationa upon this point will be actively carried on. These negotiation! will be of a very different character from the firat, for they will bear tipon a question affecting the commercial interests of all be powers. Bottling Green the Key to an Impregnable Line of Defence. Two months ago, eajs the Bowling Green Courier, if the Federal force on the line of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad waa not greatly overestimated, it was possible for them to have driven the Confedei atea from their position here, and thus to have obtained possession of what ia now the key to an impregnable line of defence. The position of an airs now is thus stated by the Courier Every day since tben the chances ef a Federal tuc-cess in a battle in front of Bowling Green have dwindled away, until now we hazard nothing in aaying, the whole Federal 'army combined would be inadequate to tbe reductiou of tbe defences which mutt be overcome before they can march on Nashville.

As to the result of a defeat of the Federal army before Bowling Green, the Courier thus speculates It would be speedily followed by tbe expulsion of the Yankees from the State. It would expose three of the Northern States to invasion. It would change the whole character of the war, the South aanutniiig the offensive, aud putting the North on the defensive. Is the administration, is Oen. Buell willing to give ua battle under these circumstances After having waited until our forces are atreugtbened and our fortifications made impregnable, until we are thoroughly, fully, completely prepared to receive him, until he cannot entertain a reasonable hope of success, will he now mutch hit, army straight into the "jaws of death, into the mouth of hell Europe and the South.

The Paris corre-epondent of the Now York Herald writes: I am assured by those whom I have ever found well informed, that France will acknowledge the Davis Oovernment if England does. The Emperor Napoleon is quite unfriendly to the North, but will take no part in the quarrel. The Southern Commissioners here are working actively against tbe North, and with iucreased success. The only paper in Paris really friendly to the North is he Opimonc Rationale, the organ of Priirce Napoleon." An English paper relates the following incident The detachment of the British Guards, destined for Canada, were shipped on board the Adriatic and Parana atearners, tbe Adriatic having the Atnericau escatclieou ou ber stern, while she was taking tbe men on hoard to the tune, with I was in played by the baud of a volunteer regiment." The London Daily News says: Ccl Fuller, late editor of the New Vork Mirror, announces that, at the request of several American end English gentlemen, he will deliver au address iu St. James's Hall, on 'The Causes and Consequences of the Civil War in We understaud that the ColoDel will advocate the cause of the South a came which but our couttant and cordial execrations." The Stone Barricade.

An nnnsnal pressure npon our colnmns has excluded the remarkable comments of the Loudon press upon Lincoln's stone blockade. Wishing, however, to place theee opinions on record, we give them condensed as follows. The London Times, of December The blockade has been so notoriously a failure that nothing but the extraordinary acrupulousness of the Kuropean powers has allowed it to continue. Ships have passed in and out at all times just at they pleased, and, to far aa harbors are concerned, there bat never been any difficulty In getting into them or getting out of tbem. Tbe Federal Governmeut has itself emphatically admitted tbe failure of tbeir naval blockade, by act of barbarity which is unparalleled in tbe hist iry of national wars.

Tbey have actually endeavored to undo wbat Columbus bad done to thut up from ell mankind forever the porta which tbe great discoverer opened to the human race, and to destroy by artificial impediments the gates by which men of all nations enter and pass out ol some millions of square miles of fertile and productive lands. This is a crime against all human kind. If it does not call down universal opposition, it is only because the enterprise is believed to be aa impossible aa ita design is execrable. The Public Credit. -The Richmond Enquirer says It bat appeared in one of our cotemporariet, both editorially and through its correspondence, that the Secretary oi tbe Treasury has purchased coin at a premium of forty per cent, to meet the interest due January 1 and March 1.

1862. Thinking that auch a statement might injuriously affect tbe public credit, we have taken the paint to ascertain the facta, and we are authorized to say that no purchase ef coin had, er hat been made by tbe Secretary of the Treasury for any such purpose and that at tbe time the notice waa given to the pnblio creditors that the interest would be paid in coin, more than enough waa already in the Treasurr to meet the interest doe on the days above specified.
