FRANCE AND AMERICA, The Constittainnhel publishes the following article as its ftrst leader. It is headed" Mediation' : " Battles, great battles, are about to be fought in America ) and perhaps have been fought already at the very moment we are writing. It is impossible, in fact, for the armies of the North and the armies he South, in presence of each other at Corinth and at Richmond, not to come to blows. Deluges of blood will be shed, and, what is more aad to con, template, whatever the issue might be, these terrible encounters do not promise a solution to the actual crisis, either for America or for Europe. The vic tory, no matter on what side, will not be attended with any final result. " Violence, hatred, passions of every description, of which the first war of independence has given us the recital, are nothing compared to the hatred which now animates the South against the North ; but they may give an idea of the resistance and of the obstacles which the Federal armies will have to meet from the Confederates. Let history, whose lessons are so rarely listened to, serve at least in some measure to give a material eloquence under such circumstances. We are willing to grant to those who do not share our opinion anything they ish ; we will grant to the Federals superiority by land and by sea; we will accept proximate triumphs fur the North. The question which the positive spirit of modern civilisation is so fond of putting still remains : ' and what afterwards P' Will the triumph of the Federal arras produce miracles ? Will it change the seasons ? Will it dissipate the hot weather and the sickness which must ensue ? Can it manage that the extent of territory con quered, and consequently to be occupied, is not equal to the whole extent of France, England, and Austria put together P Where are the armies to occupy Buell an extent, and where is the moral strength which could dispense with occupying them and hold the plate of soldiers? " We simply wish to touch upon facts—nothing but facts. What do we see on the side of the Con federates ? They burn their produce, they burn their provisions, they destroy their railways, they blow up their dockyards, their arsenals, and their ships, they leave their wives and children to fight iu battle. When, in a proclamation of savage energy, General Beauregard recommends to plan ters to destroy their crops which are within reach of the enemy, and to apply the torch to them with out delay or hesitation, it is not simply a captain excited by the drunkenness of war who speaks—it is the general sentiment loudly expressed. Had not numerous meetings already expressed their opi nion ? Once again, let us observe, we do not wish to express our own ideas on such acts ; we simply wish to give facts. " On the other hand, what are the Federals do ing P What at once strikes us is, that the country of freedom par excellence has commenced by sup pressing freedom. Military directors have seized upon all the telegraph lines which traverse Ame rica in every direction. The same censorship com pels the newspapers to publish only what is favour able to the North and unfavourable to the South. And what is the result of this ? The North speaks to the wholesseorld by the electric wires, while in formation from the SOuth, when it does come, comes tardily. In fact, the journals and correspondence from the South, which reach us by way of the Ha vannah or St. Thomas, are sometimes five weeks behindhand, and thus lose all interest. . . . " The North proclaims martial law with all its severities; it suppresses every independent voice ; it threatens the suspected with death. In presence of such despotism the English press has not been able to remain silent. . . . " In the midst of such a struggle, between such desperate opponents, who dare say that a spontane ous or likely pacification is possible ? Peace can only come from without, and the word which we have placed at the head of this article can alone put an end to a war which has desolated, steeped in blood, and decimated America already too long, and, what is more, caused Europe to suffer too long. The word we allude to is Mediation!' "But whence is this mediation to come, and on what basis can it be founded ? Whence it will come we have already stated. As regards the basis, it way easily be found. " First of all, it is evident that as mediation,' in principle, must be accepted by both belligerents, it can only represent ideas of justice and of modera tion, and that consequently it cannot be addressed to those who would like to engraft a slave war on a civil war, or to those who consider the institution of slavery as an institution of Divine right. "This mediation, a point most singularly over looked, corresponds not only to the most vital in terests of commercial Europe, but also to the most sensible minds that represent the interests of Ame rica. Let us remember that President Lincoln has pronounced himself in the same sense as, before him, Generals Burnside and Butler did against an ex citement to a slave war, and that, in his last pro clamation, he called to mind his special message, quoting the following resolution, adopted by large majorities, by both Houses of Congress The United States must co-operate with that state which might adopt the gradual abolition of slavery, by giving to each state, in its judgment, such a compensation as required for public or pri vate inconveniences resulting from such a change of system.' " Let us bring to bear upon this passage another solemn declaration made by President Lincoln in his inauguration address of the 4th March, 1861 : " have no intention to interfere, directly or indirectly, in the question of slavery where it ex ists ; I do not think that I have the right to do so legally, and I am by no means inclined to do so.' "It is thus that the North speaks, in the spirit of moderation and of justice. Will the South be less accessible to this spirit of conciliation and of wisdom ? We do not think so, and we have a proof at hand. A man of consideration of the South , Mr. Yancey, a commissioner of the Southern States, at a banquet given at Fishmongers' Hall, on the 9th of November last, at London, spoke as follows : " When our adversary shall have become suffi• ciently calm to treat us as belligerents, the aurora of peace will appear in the horizon. When that hour has struck, I think I may say that the Con• federate Government will not show itself inflexible, except upon one point; the care of our honour and of our independence. As regards the great interests of peace and humanity, our Government will know how to make concessions in everything simply material or of secondary importance.' " Those words were hailed with immense ap plause ; and here, evidently, are to be found the basis of a possible arrangement—of an arrange ment such as may be proposed in the name of Europe by a great and free nation.

HEALTH OF LOIVD9IY DUBLINTG THE WEEK. (From the Pegtstrat-General's Weekly Return.) The number of deaths in London registered in the week that ended on Saturday was 1,114, which is almost the same as that of the previous week. The mean temperature of the air in each of the last three weeks has been successively 55 6, 57.6, and 58 6 deg. The average number of deaths derived from the returns of corresponding weeks in the years 1852 61 (corrected), is 1,108. The rate of mortality last week scarcely differed from the average calculated for the first week of June. With reference to zymotic diseases, the fact that chiefly requires notice is that typhus k till maintains its predominance in this class. It was fatal last week in 79 cases (the corrected average being 41). Ten of those were returned by the London Fever Hospital; five by the registrar, of St. Margaret, Westminster ; five by the registrar of Mile-end New-town, Of 37 deaths from scarlatina, 6 occurred in the sub-district of Lambeth Church, second part. In this sub-district 91 fatal cases of that disease have been returned in the last ten weeks. Five cases of murder or manslaughter were re gistered in the week. A girl aged 4 years died from eating a quantity of horse beans ; a boy of the same age from eating crab fish, A hny agckl myna's died from infantile mutt,. after two days' illness, at 18, Rhodeswell-terrace, Mile-end Old-town. Last week the births of 915 boys and 878 girls, in all 1,793 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1852-61 the average number (corrected) was 1,797. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.766 in. The reading rose to 30.03 in. on Wednesday, and fell to 29 46 in. on Friday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 58.6 degrees, which is 1.7 degrees above the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was above the average on every day except Tursday. The highest day tem perature was 73.5 degrees, and occurred on Mon day. The lowest night temperature was 45.7 degrees on Wednesday. The range of the thermo meter in the week was therefore 27 . 8 degrees. The mean daily range was 19.1 degrees. The range on Monday was 26.5 degrees. The difference between the mean dew point temperature and air tempera ture was 74 degrees. The mean degree of humi dity of the air was 78, complete saturation being represented by 100. On Saturday the humidity was only 67. The wind was for the most part in the south-west. The fourth part of an inch of rain fell, most of it on Thursday. The mean of the high est temperatures of the water of the Thames was 62.9 degrees ; the mean of the lowest was 60.7 deg.

The newspaper correspondeats who were ordered. out of camp by Gen. Halleck, on reaching Cairo, united in signing and publishing the following statement : CAIRO, MAY 21, 18(32. " The members of the press, compelled to retire 'rom arnv, unite in the following state- " ' On the 13th inst. General Halleck issued an order expelling all unauthorised hangers on from the army line, threatening to compel every one attempting to evade it to work on the intrench ments and instructing the Provost-Marshal to re port, for summary punishment, any officer, of what ever rank, neglecting to enforce the order or con niving at its violation. " • In reply to an official inquiry from Major- General Pope General Halleck stated he included newspapereorrespondents among the" unauthorised hangers-on." All the journalists who could be notified then met, and with a single exception united in presenting this memorial to Major-Gen. Halleck " General,—The undersigned loyal citizens and accredited representatives of loyal journals respect fully represent that they came in compliance with the order of Secretary Stanton, authorising jour nalists to go-with the army, some of them bearing passes issued by his authority, and have remained here several weeks for the sole and exclusive pur pose of recording the pending battle. They are now informed that Field Older No. 54 requires them to leave the army lines. ' "'While they will not attempt to remain unless they can do so openly, with the permission of Ma jor .Gen. Halleck, there are many newspaper letter writers attached to the army in fictitious capacities who, notwithstanding any precautions that may be taken, will succeed in evading Field Order No. 54, and remaining with the army, while the duly ac credited and responsible representatives of the press are excluded; which is manifest injustice to themselves and the journals which they represent. " While desirous of avoiding everything inju rious to the army, or any portion of it, they repre sent that their exclusion just on the event which they came here especially to record will be unjust to the loyal journals and to the country which looks to them for information ; and they respectfully ask whether, as has been suggested by Colonel Scott, Assistant-Secretary of War, there are any condi tions on which they will be permitted to remain. " To this memorial we tried to secure a written answer, but failed. Gen. Halleck replied verbally that he knew nothing of our loyalty, that the enemy had spies in our camps, and that to make sure of ex cluding them he had resolved to exclude all civi lians and would make no exceptions. If we could suggest any way of obviating this diffiulty in our case he had no objection to our remaining. He alleged no offence against any of us as journalists, and said repeatedly, "I have no objection to what you may write. I care nothing about what the newspapers publish." " After further conference, held at his sugges tion, we unitedly presented the following resolu tion : " ' That we will all present to Gen. Halleck sa tisfactory proofs of loyalty; give him our where. abouts in the army, that he may know where to find us at all times, and give the exact parole of honour which the Secretary of War has announced will be required of journalists as a condition precedent 'to their passing within the army lines under his order, which is now in force in all the other military departments of the United States' " Upon reading the resolution General Halleck replied abruptly, 'lt will not do at all ;' repeated that he would take no proofs of our loyalty, and turned his back upon the committee, who at once withdrew. ' The order, in its general application, is no rigidly enforced. Many civilians remain in the camp ; others pass in daily from the rear without encountering any obstacles. On the day before our conference civilians passed directly from General Halleck's head-quarters on the most travelled road through the camps, and outside all our pickets, toward Corinth without interruption. We ourselves might have remained, as the regimental and general officers freely tendered us nominal military positions, or offered to assist otherwise in evading the order, but self-respect forbade us to assume borrowed robes or dodge provost-marshals by skulking like criminals in places of concealment. But one honour able course was left us—our immediate withdrawal. " Two of our number had passes authorising them to pass within the lines of any United States Forces, issued at the War Department by order of the Secretary of War,' and signed by Colonel Anson Stager. General Halleck said he had no official knowledge of the issue of such passes, and if he had he should not respect them. General Halleck sug gested that if we would remain in the rear of the army he would furnish the news. Inquiry, however, showed that ho meant merely to give us access to a bulletin board at Pittsburg Landing, 17 miles in the rear, on which are posted abstracts of the despatches to the Associated Press. " Thus far the Associated Press despatches have been just and reliable, but General Halleck only permits them so long as they are prepared under his supervision by a member of his staff. " The matter amounts, therefore, simply to this, that General Halleck, for the alleged purpose of ridding the camp of spies,',determinea that the people of the United States shall have no informa tion in the public press (unless smuggled through) concerning the condition of his army, treatment, and conduct of its soldiers, or the management of battles and other movements, save such as come from himself or some officer of the army whom he shall designate.

STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, June 10.—The political news from America, the improved commercial advices from India, the firmness of the Liverpool cotton-market, and the harvest prospects, all conspire to-day to give more confidence, and we have again had a more active demand for cotton yarn and cloth. In yarn there has been a good deal of business, and prices have advanced id. per lb. upon last week's rates. The business would have been a good deal larger had spinners been willing to accept the rates they would have taken on Friday last, but there is a general disposition among all classes of pro ducers to raise their terms, and they find their hands a good deal strengthened by the activity and firmness at Liverpool and the growing scarcity of the raw material. We have found merchants buy ing yarns for all markets to-day—China, Bombay, Calcut a, the Mediterranean, Germany, and the home trade. Doubled yarns, which have of late been much neglected, have been a good deal inquired for, and there has been a fair business, ranging over all counts, from 80's to Igo's. The telegrams are from Calcutta to the 24th and from Bombay to the 26th of May, quoting a considerable advance in yarns, and of 1 anna to 4 annas (lld. to 6d.) per piece upon the various descriptions of shirtings. This news, with the continued advance in cotton at Liverpool, has caused a considerable business to be done in our Manchester cloth-market yesterday and to-day, and the sales embrace most of the usual fabrics for India at an advance of 1-3-el per piece, and in some instances rather more. Most of the old stocks of cloth, which have been held from six to nine months past, made of American cotton, have this week been cleared" off. Low T-cloths, longeloths, and domestics are more difficult of sale. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report :—" Since Tues day last there has been a large business done in the better qualities of India and China shirtings at the full rates of that day.

Iu other piece is generallyoer goodsasked, there is no change to report, the demand continuing on a very limited scale, but prices well supported." LEEDS, 10th.—The markets in the woollen cloth halls to-day have been of a holiday character. T. tone of the markets, however, was cheerful, as hOpes of a good autumn trade are generally entertained. Stocks of goods in the hands of retail dealers are below an average, and there is little that is old held over, or if there be it will not supplant the new manufactures which are likely to be fashionable in the colder season of the year, both for male and female attire. The wool purchased at the recent series of colonial sales in London is coming to hand. It is well reported of, being mostly of the medium or best qualities. Generally the price of wools, English, colonial, and foreign alike, are steady. ROCHDALE, 9th.—The market for both flannels and wools has been of a quiet character to-day, but fair business is reported from the warehouses during the past week. The finer and medium qualities of goods are the most in request, but little being done in low goods. The shipping trade remains flat, es pecially the American trade. The ' orkshire goods trade is much the same as lately reported. The prices of wool keep steady, and there is a fair de mand, considering the usual disposition shown on the eve of the new clip coming into the market.

FINANCIAL CONDITION OF NEW YOI?K The commercial advices from New York this week show that, although the ignorant confidence of the multitude in the paper issues of the Govern ment was still almost undiminished, many of the more shrewd financiers were preparing for the ap proach of the inevitable crisis. A curious specula tion had ()Jinn in bills on Yurope, which were now being bought for time, like stocks and shares. Some of the contracts arc for tills to be furnished four or six months hence, and in other cases they are to be supplied at one month's call. These transactions are cquvalent to purchasing specie at present prices to lre, deli vered at a future date. Meanwhile com mercial business, except in the exportation of grain and provisions, 'which is being carried on to an.ex tent that must leave the country in a precarious condition if the want of labour an d any adverse condition of the weather should affect the crops during the coming seasons, was completely s t a gnant. The traffic on the railroads, however, owing t o this movement of produce, combined with the transport of materials for the army, was, on the whole, not unfavourable. All the hopes of a revival of business from the removal of the blockade of New. Orleans appear to have been disappointed. "There is," it is said, " not a sign of our being able to induce the inhabitants to trade." Under these cir cumstances it was more than ever difficult to find employment for money in the discount of commer cial paper, and the Government could, therefore, borrow with undiminished facility. The Treasury had consequently issued new invitations for de posits at 4 per cent. for not less than 30 days, and then at 10 days' call. By this means, and the un limited issue of certificates of indebtedness, the Government avoid fresh loans, and the public are at the same time assured that the public debt on the Ist of July will be much less than has previ ously been stated: There is no real doubt, how ever, that the worst estimates hitherto put forth will be fully borne out when all outstanding liabi lities are fairly included. Predictions of the date at which the rebellion is to be crushed continued to be put forth with equal confidence but with less precision than formerly. If victory is secured both at Richmond and Corinth, the war is to be wound up in three months—the old 90 days ; but if the Confederates succeed at either of these places, " it may be prolonged for two years." The return to France of the French Secretary of Legation at Washington has given rise to conjectures, and the article on mediation in the Paris Constitutionnel of his morning may possibly have been inspired by .he information brought home by that personage. 4 FRENCHMAN'S OPINION OF THE DERBY. M. Amedee Achard, a htterateur of a differen stamp from M, Assolant, has given, in the Journal des Debats, an interesting account of the Epsom races. in his reflections on the fact of a vast assemblage of people where gendarmes, troops, and sergens de Tulle were not required to keep order, he says : " If a savage were told that 100,000, 200,000, or 500,000 persons consented without being forced to do so to move along a road during four hours in the morning and five hours in the afternoon, exposed to the sun and enveloped in dust, for the sole purpose of tasting a pleasure which asted (watch in hand) but three minutes or so, would he not, in his rude simplicity, think that those 600,000 civi lised beings were all mad ? The case of madness apart, one can only explain the Derby by a conviction that the horse is a creature superior to man. And yet there is something grand and superb in that only great annual festival of Eng land. We feel the mighty breath of a people who, from the Tory to the Radical, from the lord to the cockney, feel the same passion, the same instinct, at the same moment and on the same spot, The gentleman, the soldier, the peasant, the sailor, the shopkeeper, the rich, the poor—all are of the same blood, all of the same race, all thorough Englishmen. They are all as but one man. With these unanimous feel ings, with these passions—the same in high and low—a nation is made. One tl ing by its very silence characterises the English people. There were at Epsom that day per haps 10,000 vehicles of every kind ; and yet you did not hear the crack of a single whip. Why, a single carriage descending the Champs Elysces after the races at Li Marche makes more noise than all of them, It is an ava lanche which thunders along. Here 20,000 wheels and 40,000 horses, conducted by 15,000 grooms, flew along like a rivulet. When the disorder is here on the surface de pend upon it that order is at the bottom. The Epsom, races, independently of the magical attraction they have for British imagination through the Derby, are again a striking testimony of the love Englishmen of every class have for physicial exercise. Z hey hold it in great esteem, as you know, and practise it with constant attention. They see in it, and perhaps they are not wrong, an efficacious manner of developing the vital force of man, and making it produce the greatest possible result. In fact, it is a sort of political economy in a muscular sense. In this only you find the secret of the tacit protection which the most distinguished Englishmen accord to the Herculean family of boxers—and this strange to say, in spite of the letter of the law. One would say that a part of this spirit is infused into the brain of the horse himself. You see little animals that refuse no burden, and stick at no obstacle. They have the stubbornness of bulldogs and the energy of the:Saxon race. They die in harness. But when one has seen the Derby it is very difficult to cherish any illusion on the future of horseracing in France. No doubt, peeple do well in pro tecting and multiplying them; but, in spite of all they do, horseracing will be an amusement only tor a very small number of horse-fanciers. Large fortunes do not come to its aid, and decidedly the popular taste is not for it. At 11 o'clock at night the visitors to the Derby throng to Cre morne, where it is the custom to spend a part of the night after the races at Epsom. Cremorne is something like a masked ball without masks." INTERNATIONAL CHESS CONORESs.—The preli minary meeting of the great gathering of the chess players of all nations to be held this year, will take place on the 13th inst., at St. James's H all, under the presidency of Lord Lyttelton.

The appearances led him to infer that some persons' fingers had been passed around the child's throat, and strangu lation effected in that way.

The latter immediately went to the deceased's house and knocked at the door, but getting no reply , h e looked in and saw Drew, in his blood. Mr. Bassett then went into the car penter's shop, which adjoins the dwelling-house, and on entering the back door discovered that Drew had been murdered.
