" The Post-office Turkish Bathi, 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand. —Dr. Culverwell has already established the reputation of an able physician ; he has nowproved himself to be a worthy philantlfropist, in as far as he has established, in the heart of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established, the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess one of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand, which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances, and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up his baths with a degree of elegance, luxur y, and-refinement, w hi c h, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur prising, while everything- that taste or delicacy could desire has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the visitor. . .

By Dr. LA'MERT, 37, Bedford-square, London. Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh; Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, &e. conquests of armed force in republics will develope themselves in the New World. The personal cha racter of Gen. M'Clellan affords a guarantee that he is not the man who would seek to elevate him self on the fragments of the institutions for the assertion of which he is now preparing an offensive army—but it may so happen that he may be forced to avert greater evils by assuming for a time the chief control of the State with the consent of those who are the masters of public suffrage, if not of public opinion. The dangers of defeat will be greater than those of success; but the latter will be attended with enormous difficulties ? Even the Maryland, apparatus of Government, though simple and effective, is not constitutional ; and when it is applied to the Confederate States it will become one of the most extraordinary organisations which ever were beheld in a country calling itself free. Personal experience induces me to believe that the same spirit, unanimity, and courage which the South exhibits in its resistance in the field will be displayed in every form of pas sive opposition to the efforts of the North to reduce it to subjection when the fight shall have ceased. The Unionists persist in declaring there is a large party—to be consistent they ought to declare there is a majority—of the people in the seceded States opposed to the principles of the Confederates and to the independence for which they appear to be fighting. If so, the task of re-amalgamation will be more easy; if not, the Federalists will be reduced to the pleas and the machinery of force exercised, as they contend, for right, but still applied to oppress a majority of the people in the Slaves States. If there be a General Dix in every State, a man capable, resolute, and active, with overpowering force at his disposal, all the States may be reduced to the condition of Maryland, and the polls may be made to give Union returns, but the supposition is very unreasonable ; and even if it be verified the world will see with disgust the resurrection in the great Republic of the spirit and substance of the most absolute despotism covered with cerecloths of more cut up with water and rice fields as you ap proach Savannah. As there were materials for hutting on board the transport, it is probable the troops will endeavour to establish themselves in a fortified camp outside Beaufort, and if so, they had better•make it a more eligible selection than they hthaavte tdehiedemeaeot upon p i n a ee tlhtietarhateosm. be. tt h r ell iiea r dep by sye o ul r ry t t s -amffi o f arrni t t r ie o adl u . e at It s t the 20th India na R eg i men t i s t o b e w ithd r awn, and will be a singular weakness if the United States abandon its barren conquest, but it it now disco vered that Oregon inlet, in the same series of sand reefs, will permit egress and i ngress t o th e vas t inland navigation which the possession of Hatteras was intended to close. From the West there is the usual unsatisfactory and unintelligible farrago of telegrams. One fact seems clear, that Gen. Fre mont's dismissal has not produced as yet any of the serious inconveniences or dangers which were anti cipated by his friends and his enemies. The part of his career which most became him seems to have been his retirement, and his conduct on taking leave of his troops. The American papers contain the re sults of the committee of inquiry into the manage ment of his troops, and it is not possible to read it without coming to the conclusion that any general who permitted such frauds to be perpetrated—sup posing always they are fully proved —was not fitted for the service of any State which could not bear ruin at short intervals. His successor has a difficult game to play, and it is to be hoped he sees-what it is more clearly than any one here can do. There are reports of two affairs in the West —one, an expedi tion from Cairo against Columbus, in Kentucky, which was partially successful, though attended with heavy loss and followed by a retreat to their camp, on the part of the Federalists, after they had, as they say, taken guns they could not carry off, and destroyed the enemy's camp and stores. The other expedition was under the command of Colonel Oglesby, and " broke up" a camp of Confederates in Missouri, some 60 miles from Cairo. The loss of life at Belmont was considerable. This is all we can learn, except the old news that something great is going to happen. " The army in good spirits ; no battle expected at present." Such is a sensation heading in the papers to-day, of which an ill-natured person might say the apposition was argumentative, but it 'does not, nevertheless, correctly convey the state of this situation here. I have made a very curious collec tion of some of these same headings, as illustrations of the condition to which a portion of the cheap American press is reduced, and of the state to which it has brought its readers. The most degraded of these journals—one which is supposed to be in the pay of the South, and which certainly by the style of its advocacy brings the North into contempt and does much to damage the interests of Government abroad, advises us now and then to take it and its contem poraries as the only sources of information on which reliance can be placed. If we did, a more deluded people could not exist on the face of the earth, or one more distracted by contending statements, by the contorted falsehoods of the hour, by the asser tion of to-day made to be contradicted to-morrow. The citizen of New York is quite accustomed by this time to find that the " glorious victory" of Monday turns out to be a defeat on Tuesday, and the unabashed," though not the unscarred " Defoe," leers horribly as he hears the rush of the crowd outside his office after some big lie in a second edition, and pockets the cents of his dear public in the full knowledge that do what he may they will come to him again. It is a sort of mental dram-drinking—the "sensation" must be produced night and morning, and so many times in the day. The poor victims when the effects are over, swear they will never touch a drop again, but the craving is insatiable, and at the accustomed hour off they run to the bar and swallow their moral juleps and cocktails notwithstanding their experience of their evil effects on the constitution. Had we listened to the advice tendered with such delicious impudence, we should have actually taken Bull's Run as a vic tory, the surrender of Lexington as a splendid feat of arms, and a number of pitiful skirmishes as so many Vittorias or Waterloos. Many of these actions are brought on by the leaders on both sides apparently without an object. General Scott was opposed to them ; but, in fact, the Commander-in- Chief has as little power as the head of any other department over his subordinates, separated by thousands of miles from him. If he wants the power he must take it. It is announced in the papers that Major-General Havelock, of the British army, has tendered his services to the President, and that Captain Short, R.N., has been equally kind to Mr. Jefferson Davis. The rank of the former gallant officer, of whom, as brother of Sir Henry and uncle of the presentbaronet, one wishes to speak with every respect, must have been be stowed by some foreign Power or an unrecognised brevet. The latter officer is unknown to fame on the Navy List. But what of that ? One man is as good as another ; so is one story as bad as another. As a charming specimen, however, of the manufac turing ingenuity in that line of some of your con temporaries, take the veracious statement that Lord Lyons received Mr. Semmes, captain of the Sumter, in the Confederate navy, gave him an English pass port, and introduced him to Mr. Seward at the State Department ! NOVEMBER 9. There is moderate exultation over the votes in Maryland. The result gives the Federalists a clear working majority in the Legislature and State Government, and would dispose of all pre tence that there is a numerical majority for Seces sion if the voters had been uninfluenced in any way. Kentucky, Missouri, and Virginia subjected to the same process might produce the same results, and if they could be put under it there are thousands of Unionists who would be content to withdraw from the contest, and leave the other States to their own devices. The departure of Mr. Thurlow Weed and Bishop Hughes for Europo is in pursuance of the resolution, the existence of which I announced in a previous letter, to send un official ambassadors or representatives to England and France to counteract the effects of Mr. Mason and Mr. Slidell's mission and to make explanations, and enter upon negotiations with the two Govern ments as well as to sound the depths of popular feeling, and ascertain the views of leading men in the political world. There were several candidates for the important mission. Mr. Everett appeared in Washington and had several interviews with Mr. Seward about the time the project was started, and Bishop M'llwaine and Mr. Kennedy were men tioned as coadjutors in the mission. Whatever the causes, these gentlemen did not go, but Mr. Weed and Bishop Hughes, two of Mr. Seward's best friends, faintly disclaim the n otion that their voyage to Europe is on diploma tic business.

It also points out how all the attributes of Man hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they are lost, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the gross exaggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous remedies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prac tising with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive. The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner whose name stands on the Medical Register (the only true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the various functional disorders of the nervous and reproductive system, which, owing to the great, discoveries of modern science, are rendered subservient to a rational, simple, and easy mode of treatment.

By Dr. J. B. RTIS, 15, A:berraarle-street, Piccadilly, Loudon. (From the ',Special Correspondent of the Times.) WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. The impression is forcing itself into a conviction that neither General M'Clellan nor any other Gene ral will convert the mass of men under arms about here into a well-disciplined army acc ording to the European standard or the notions of the most easil y satisfied military critics. There is somet hin g radi cally deficient—a sentiment wanting, without which respect for the officer and obedience on the part of the man cannot be developed into a system of uni form action in all times and under all circumstances. It would take years to infuse a substitute for the feeling which produces such results in the European mind and facilitate the change from the man to the soldier so readily. There is a change, and it affects the man's intellect as well as his body, and you can recognise it in the precision and vigorous mate rialism of the one as much as in the upright car riage, regulated pace, and even the expression of eye in the other. The recruit there begins his career by respecting his officer; here the lesson is scarcely over taught or learnt. The newly enlisted citizen talks to his superior in an easy off-hand way, and it is some time before the poor fellow is cured of his little civilities in regard to his Captain's health in the morning or can be induced to refrain when he meets his Colonel from making kind inquiries after his general welfare. The accounts of courts-martial which one reads, their irregularities, the nature of the offences tried, and matters of the sort, give an idea of what the regular officers have to do. I have seen processions of men, their arms tied behind their backs, marching through the streets of Washington, of whom no one sees any accounts in the papers. No one can tell what their offence is, or where the mutiny occurred. There is one now-12 or 14 ar tillerymen fastened by ropes together, and marsh ing under a guard down Pennsylvania-avenue. Then one hears such strange-sounding language between officer and private. " Captain, will you come is and take a drink ?" " And so the boys have made you loeftenant ; well, I'm reely glad to hear it." The other day an officer dismounted close to my door, and gave his horse to his orderly. Ho had a Lieutenant-Colonel's shoulder strap. "Bo back here in an hour," said he ; " I shall be here in that time." "Oh f that he ..........," rejoined the orderly (Our men swore horribly in Flanders ;) " how can you expect to go there and be back in one hour ?—'taint possible." The Colonel seemed struck by the force of the remark, and said, " Well, an hour and a-hal."." " Why don't you salute your officer ?" quoth a friend of mine to a passing private. The man drew himself up, and did so in a sort of a way, but as h 3 moved off he said in an apologetical tone, " You see, Mejor, I don't know the faces of all the chaps yet." If the army be turned into regulars and strictly drilled and handled two or three years will, no doubt, eradicate the spirit of equality in military matters ; but the task ledifficult, for the defect to be remedied is nearly innate. The better the class from which the re-. cruits come, the greater the difficulty of reducing them to proper subjection. The punishments in the army are quaint and capricious ; they render men ridiculous, and harden without terrifying them ; and not a few of the officers regret that they have no power to order flogging, which has a certain efficacy in the case of men who cannot be reclaimed by other means. Let the war go on, and there will be- greater results produced than the reduction of this force to good discipline. The Americans will learn that at last, when they see the use of it ; at present they are a good deal like children beginning the alphabet. They are slow to believe they are actually engaged in something more than a large faction fight. It is affirmed that the Government will at last yield to the pressure brought to bear against it by public opinion arid the advice of General M'Clellan, and will make proposal:, ft, r the exchange of pri soners. Without imputiog to the North or South any inhumanity, it must be said, if what lam told and read be true, the prison... w.. ...t. on either side. The Rev. Dr. Bellows of the Sani tary Commision—a man not likely to use strong words in reference to the conduct of the war on the Union side,—is a report to Government on the con dition of the prisoners ho visited in the New York prisons, declares that " it was very trying, almost inhuman ;" but it must be added, in justice, that he proceeds to state the wants and privations to which they were exposed, and which were disgraceful to the State, had been relieved, and that they had nothing to complain of except severe disease and sickness. However, they had been for some weeks in that state of suffering before they saw them, and political prisoners who are not in the possession of funds have full reason to lament their hard fate. A Mr. Maury, an Englishman, brother of the young gentleman who was arrested the other day for car rying correspondence directed to persons in the South, was seized in the State Department the day before yesterday es ho was inquiring after a port manteau which had been detained at Cleveland, but for the release of which he had received the order of the Secretary of State, and was placed in a room, as I am informed, without a table, fuel, or even a bed, where he passed the night, having been refused permission to communicate with his friends, or any explanation of the grounds of his arrest. It is always "France will not, England dare not do" some absurd thing or other, never dreamt of by any one except the writer. Only the other day a respectable journal treated its readers to a long and inflammatory article on a supposed change in the tone and attitude of the English Government towards the United States, founded on Lord Rus sell's correspondence with the Liverpool m3rchant, who wanted to go to war for cotton on his own account, and it informed the world that the imagi , nary alteration had been caused by the recent acts and conduct of the United States Government, not deigning to look at the date of the correspondence on which it rested its self-glorification. And then they wonder we are not merely sympathetic but active in their cause. The American people are naturally well-disposed as any race on the face of the earth. Their domestic affection indicates an amiable temperament, but they are easily excited, as democracies always are, and are exceedingly sensitive. If their Scribes and Pharisees would but leave them alone, if they would but permit the national sentiment to take its own course, there would be no fear of quarrel ; but these mouthing rhetoricians and " mobolaters " fear nothing so much as a friendly understanding between the people of Great Britain, for with it would depart one of their great levers to get into place and power. The result of the Maryland election would be more satisfactory and conclusive if Gen. Dix had n2l done his gendarmerie work so effectively in altimore. His proclamation was so alarming that the citizens formed a deputation to ascertain its meaning, and were informed that his intentions were honourable. But the wholesale rigour of his arrests on Wednesday resembles nothing so ranch as the prlcess of voting for an Imperialist deputy, or " taking the sense of the people" at Nice on the question of annexation. Nevertheless, the fact of the majority for the Union remains, and the faith of the Government in bayonets and martial law is justified so far. Nor will they hesitate to employ ike the c S bh o e u r le t i l nu L dr cehr ( sa 3 a sie t t i (10 1 irabtve theratlyu echo; cost too o ,or o rh d ee e v a e r ry American c n i s a i y d e i p t r o l t the same machinery to develops Union sen ti men t i n now laugh at the idea of any ultimate danger to their liberties and independence from armed force, or national sentiment itself; but the steps by which the ruin comes may be as stealthy as those by which revolution, and rebellion, and civil war came hasty and rapid. " All men think all men mortal but themselves ;" and the Americans, relying on the enlightment of their democracy, deride the fears of those who think the results which follow the liberty. The Southern people have now poured out all their passion into the mould of a distinct nation ality, and their only tie to the North is a common language and traditions, which, belonging to the history of their short-lived career, are now old as the stories of the Heptarchy. When the Northern orators and writers inveigh against the men, morals, and manners of the Slave States they bear evidence to the fact that a broad gulf exists between them, which they think they can cover over with the national flag. The Abolitionists, to whom " the Constitu tion is a leage with the Devil, a covenant with hell," who exclaim that " Union is dishonour," that " dishonour is gain," prosecute the war either to destroy the institution of slavery and its protec tors, or to enjoy the luxury of conquest and re venge over haughty and defiant enemies ; but that party which seems to become smaller as the contest covers more ground is divided into active belligerents and those who would let the Slave States go with a curse, in the sure confidence that their system would work out the heaviest punishment of rebel lion, and force them to crawl back to the Union with " bated breath and whispering humbleness." With the recognition of Southern independence would come the most serious questions of all, and it is not possible that some of them could be settled without a renewed struggle. The North can never be made to admit the right of the Slave States to recover their vagrant chattels within their domi nions; nothing but the complete prostration of the North at the feet of the South could induce her to allow that which the Constitution now argumenta tively yields as a right when the Constitution shall have been rent asunder. An extradition treaty would be a record of infamous defeat. But how are the raw edges of the Slave States to be applied to the caustic of the Free States, in which opposition to slavery shall have become an article in the new Constitution P For many hundreds of miles, take what frontier you may, a mere geographical line or navigable river will separate the two Confederacies in which every interest and every principle of com merce WILL ou Dual Atutrzs must erect forts, build custom-houses, establish frontier guards along marsh and mountain, to fight the battles of hostile tariffs and to watch the smug glers of men as well as of goods. Wherever the frontier runs that must be the case, but its line is yet to be drawn in blood if the contending parties are deaf to the voice of mediation. Nor can any one pretend to say what issues may not be raised concerning the territories or the States purchased for the Union by the funds of the United States, or the national forts and arsenals, and property seized by the people in insurrection. The politicians here can only see one result—conquest. It will cure all wounds and settle all controversies ; but, if events prove they are mistaken, the time may come for an armed truce on both sides, and an active media tion in an honest and impartial spirit, which shall lead to a peace and the most satisfac tory adjustment of these questions the nature of them permits us to expect. Any solution will lead to "a strong Government"—that summum bonum of aristocratic South and democratic North. Either one centralized strong Government or two will arise in this country, but no one can say whether the development will take place at once or after a terrible interregnum of disorder and political trouble, and universal suffrage will find its master in its own favourite creation—armed despotism. The other day a soldier said to an officer who was about to punish him for neglect of duty, " If you do I'll not vote for you at the next election." " You spoke too late," quoth the officer ; " here I am now with the power to punish you, and I'll double it for your threat,"—a very pregnant little story for people to think over in all its bearings.

As I am two days from Boston by mail, and the electric telegraph will carry the latest news up to the sailing of the packet on Wednesday, I shall not in dulge in any speculations in reference to the news from the Great Expedition, meagre and unsatisfac tory, and even doubtful as it is; bat I may be allowed to record my opinion, from the tone of those in the public departments, that the success is not very decisive, and that the ships have been receiving a very warm reception. When I was in Port Royal this spring, on Mr. Trescot's Sea Island, the advan tages of the position and the probability of an at tack struck me ; but I was told that the inhabitants were aware of their danger, and that batteries had bern erected to cover Beaufort and the banks of the river at the entrance of Port Royal. That was BO far back as May. Since then the defences have probably been greatly strengthened, and although Broad River and Port Royal afford depth of water for any vessel except the very largest men-of war, there is a bar on the branch to Beau fort which will prohibit the entrance of the heavy frigates of the expedition. I am informed there were 28 vessels inside pounding away at the place ; the town itself will no doubt be destroyed, but, even if the troops land and take possession of it, they will not find it of much use. There is— there can be—no intention of marching the force inland. If there should be any movement of the kind it will be a fatal error, for the country can be inundated at pleasure, and is, above all that I have ever seen, suited for defence, and the force would be too small to take military possession of the dis trict. But if they land and entrench themseflcoviedetssgoatesfft Beaufort they can cause immense incauveni ence :s and constant anxiety to the Confederates ; and they come close on Pocotaligo, which is a station on the railway p spanning nhne line g rivers inf r o runs u ns through a n Charleston a creeks, e t vast s o s S : a v so w a n n a n m a pi) wooden and and bridges , rice c e e fled communicationand half-clearedb etw een these e o place s. to n plantations , easily destructible, and running for many miles on trestle work, so that it can be rendered useless by cutting the woodwork, or, better still, by flinging the rails into the water.

It will be impossible, if they really desire to escape, to prevent them flock ing to the Federal fleet and camp, and coercion may precipitate the country into the horrors of ser vile insurrection. Of the 40,000 inhabitants in Beaufort county 34,000 are slaves! There cannot be more than 1,200 white men capable of bearing arms, of whom probably one-half are away in the Confederate ranks, leaving few, indeed, to loak after the plantations and the blacks. If the Confederates can inclose their enemies with a living wall they may prevent the fearful calami ties which impend over them ; but the alarm and apprehension which must prevail all over the county and in the large towns cannot fail to add new horrors to war, and to fill every heart with fear almost as bitter and dreadful as death it self. But has the North considered what it will do in case there is a levee en masse of the slaves, and that they form their unwelcome myriads upon the Federal camps? General Cameron's instructions to General Sherman authorise him in effect to pro tect such slaves as can get within the Federal lines, and Congress has declared those who have beers employed by their masters on military works ipso facto freedmen. Suppose the 34,000 of Beaufort came inside the lines and the category ? But, indeed, there is no settled policy in regard to this the most vital question of all after that of the actual contest. General Kelley, in Virginia, according to statements in print, confines all slaves who come to him till thay are claimed by their masters. The Navy De partment is in expectation of receiving despatches, the substance of which will be communicated to the papers in time for the sailing of the steamer from Boston on the 13th of November. News has reached us that the French frigate Cleopatra has been lost at Hatteras ; crew saved. A VOICE FROM THE SOUTH. TO THE EDITOR OP 'rim TIMES. have been greatly surprised to learn since my arrival in London that an effort has been made through publications in the English press to create the impression that there is much disaffection to. wards the Confederate Government in all tho Southern States of America, but particularly among the people of North Carolina, and that the proceedings of what purports to have been a meet ing of influential and respectable oitizens of tho county of Hyde, in that State, have been published as authority for the numerous statements which have been made upon the subject. -I am directly from the city of Raleigh, the capital OT the State of North Carolina, having come as a passenger in the Confederate States war steamer Niishville, which left Charleston, South Carolina, On the 26thof October, and cast anchor off the Itchin, Southampton, on the 21st of this month, and have been since August, with the exception of brief visits to Virginia, constantly in the eastern portion of the State, where this disaffection is said to exist and the meeting to have taken place, and I need not say how much gratified I am that an opportunity is afforded me of pronouncing the entire story as utterly devoid of truth in every particular: No such disaffection exists in North Carolina, and no such meeting has ever beenheld. The people of North Cat c lina are united and enthusiastic in their support of the Confederate Government, and are determined under no circumstances to ground their arms till the independency of the Confederacy is acknow ledged by our enemy. Before the State seceded there was in North Carolina, as in every Southern State, and as there will always be in every popular Government, a divided public sentiment - as to the wisest policy to be pursued for a redress of the grievances suffered at the hands of the Government of the United States, but the proclamation of Mr. Lincoln, in contravention of all law and authority, calling out 75,000 men ostensibly to "hold, occupy, and possess" a few forts and an armoury at Har per's Ferry,—a force so disproportioned to the ob ject announced that the whole people were aroused to a sense of their danger, and the Act of Secession was passed by a unanimous vote of the Legislature, and was subsequently ratified by a State conven tion representing the sovereignty of the people. This action occurred in the month of April last, and since that time I have never heard in my extensive association with the people a single expression of opinion in opposition, but, on the contrary, a uni versal sentiment of concurrence in its prop?iety, justice, and necessity. Before I left America the State had sent to the seat of war in Virginia, fully armed and equipped, 33,000 volunteer troops, infantry and riflemen, and a splen did regiment of cavalry, numbering 1,091. There were 6,000 troops on the State coast, and camps of instruction established at ltaleigh, Ridgeway, and Gareysburg, and the number of volunteers still offering was so great that General Martin, Com mander-in-Chief of the State forces, under orders of his Excellency the Governor, had issued a pro clamation informing the people that no further troops were needed or could l,e received. A simple statement of these facts is a sufficient refutation of the idea which Mr. President Lincoln so earnestly and persistently seeks to create abroad, that there is a Union party in the Confederate States. It may suit his purposes to create such an impression, as a justification of his course in waging a wicked and atrocious war upon a gallant and noble people, whom he is perfectly aware he can only wound—never conquer, but he will find few charitable enough to believe him actuated either by truth or honour. The further statements of the papers of the United States, which have been extensively repro duced in the British press, that large numbers — multitudes, indeed, of the people of North Carolina, had since the fall of Fort Hatteras gone in and taken the oath of allegiance to the Government of the United States are likewise devoid of truth. On the isolated and barren strip of sand where Fort Hatteras is situated there are several hundred wreckers, who support themselves principally by decoying vessels to their destruction by displaying false lights, &C., and about a hundred of these desperadoes, who live without the sense of any duty they owe to God or man, and who did not wish to be disturbed by their new neighbours, went in and took the oath after the fort fell. If the Yankees were dislodged to-morrow, they would take a se cond oath, with equal alacrity, to whoever might next occupy the waste. If any meeting favourable to Mr. Lincoln ever took place in North Carolina, which I do not believe, it could only have been composed of these wreckers, acting under the aus pices of their new-fledged friends, the Yankee in vaders, and the salutary restraints imposed by mar tial law and the guns of Fort Hatteras. By giving this hurried note a place in your columns, where the statements it is intended to cor rect have appeared, you will much oblige Your most obedient servant, London, Nov. 23. J. L. PETTON. r.s.—The statements in the alleged proceedings of the meeting in Hyde county, that the writ of habeas corpus, the freedom of speech and of the press, and the right of trial by jury, had all been suspended in North Carolina are utterly false. J. L. P. 'W DICKERS ON THE EAST C AST.--In reference to a paragraph published last week, ill which it was stated that a party of Royal Marines bad been sent down the Nora to protect a merchant vessel driven ashore on the Middle Swin, which was being plundered by Essex wreckers, ice are requested to state that the parties removing the tallow from the abandoned brig were smacksmen, who are em powered by the Merchant Seamen's Act to do what they were doing when this force was sent down to disperse them. The property thus saved is reported to the collec tor of wreckage, and the crews are hus entitled to a cThereertain amount of salvage on all the cargo t rescued. have been, happily, no such persons as wreckers known upon the Essex coast for many years. GARIEIALDI.—The litovinzento of Genoa publishes the following letter from General Garibaldi, in reply to an article in a Brussels journal, in which he is described as a pirate who was many years ago attacked and vanquished by a British vessel. The letter runs thus :—" Caprera, Nov. 14, 1861. In No. 44 of the journal Le Reformation I have read an article entitled, 'An Episode not generally known hip Life of Garibaldi.'
