U.S. steamer San Jacinto, Nov. 20. The San Jacinto, a first class screw steam sloop, mount ing 15 runs, lately attached to the "U.S. African squadron, under the command of Flag-Officer William Inman, left St. Paul de Loando on the 10th August last, on her return to the United States, in the temporary command of Lieut. D. M. Fairfax, U.S. navy, who was ordered to await at Fernando Po the arrival of Captain Charles Wilks, U.S. navy. On the 26th August Captain Charles Wilks toek command of this ship,Lieut. Fairfax, returning to his former position as executive officer. We left Ferdando Po on the 20th August, cruising close to the shore for the purpose of ascertaining if any of the Confederate privateers had taken any prizes to that coast. Arrived at Monrovia, Liberia on the 12th, and at St. Vincent, Cape Verde, on the 25tH Sept. Seeing by the papers that several Confederate privateers had run the blockade, and taken several prizes in the West India Islands, Captain Wilks determined to cruise abont these islands, and to capture some of them before returning with the San Jacinto to New York. We arrived at St. Thomas on the 10th of October, and found the Powhatan and Iroquois there. On the 11th, the British brig Spartan arrived in port ; her master called on Captain Wilks, and informed him that on the sth of October, while in lat. 9 deg. 33 min. N., and long. 47 deg. 25 min. W., he was boarded by a steamer, evidently a war vessel in dis guise, and after answering all questions, he could get no other information in return but that they were on a cruise. Captain Wilks showed him a photograph of the Sumter, which he immediately recognised as the vessel by which he was boarded. Captain Wilks then advised Commander Palmer, of the Iroquois, to cruise immediately after her, the Iroquois being the fastest steamer of the three, and to follow her as far as Rio even, if necessary; at the same time the San Jacinto cruised in the West Indies and Carib bean Sea to overhaul the Sumter, in the event of her re turning there. The Iroquois left St. Thomas on the 13th, and we left on the 14th of October, in company with the Powhatan. Since leaving St Thomas we cruised in the vicinity of the Windward Islands, and visited Port Royal and Kingston, in the Island of Jamaica, the Grand Cay man, Trinidad, Cienfuegos, Key West, Key Lobos, Segue la Grande, and the Bahamas. Although for 20 months engaged in an active cruise for slavers on the West Coast of Africa, and much reduced in the number of her officers and crew, the San Jacinto has been for the last six weeks continually cruising in search of the Sumter. On our arrival at Cienfuegos, we learned by the papers that the Theodora had run the blockade at Charleston and ar rived at Havana, after landing the Confederate Commis sioners, Messrs. Mason and Slidell, with their secretaries, Messrs. Eustis and M'Farland, and the families of Mr. Slidell and Mr. Eustis at Cardenas, and that they would proceed over land to Havana. As soon as Captain Wilks heard of it he determined to pursue the Theodora, and intercept her return to Charleston. He took, there fore, sufficient coal to go on a short cruise, and left Cien fuegos on the 26th of October, arrived at Havana on the 2S h, and learned that the Theodora had departed on her return to Charleston, after being well received by the authorities of Havana, and being presented at the Tacon Theatre by the ladies of the Southern States with a splendid Confederate flag. Messrs. Slidell. Mason, and suite were still at Havana, boarding at the Hotel Cubana, keptby Mrs. Brewer. One of our officers visited the hotel with some of his friends, and met Mr. Mason in the parlour. We learned from our consul-general that the Confederate Commissioners were waited upon by H.B.M. consul, Mr. Crawford, in full dress, and officially introduced by him to Captain-General Serrano, of Cuba. When Captain Wilke heard of their intention to take passage in the British packet for Europe, he conceived the bold plan to intercept the British mail-steamer, and in the event of these four per sons being on beard, to make them prisoners. We filled up with coal in great haste, took in provisions (as a part of our daily rations, for the crew were exhausted), and left Havana on the 2d inst. On the 4th, in the morning, a steam gunboat being in sight from the mast-head, we all were in hopes that it would prove to be the Theodora, and orders were given to beat to quarters. Scarcely four minutes elapsed, and the San Jacinto was ready to receive her foe; but we were doomed to disappointment—it turned out to be her Britannic Majesty's gunboat Stag, bound from Key West for Havana. We arrived the same day at Key West in search of the Powhatan, or some other steamer, to assist in intercepting the British packet. There being another passage through the New Bahama Channels, Capt. Wilks's plan was, that a steamer should cruise there, while the San Jacinto was cruising in the Old Bahamas, so that the mail-packet could not escape our vigilance ; but the Powhatan having left for Key 'West the day before, and no steamer except the Huntsville (and she corking) being in port, our captain, nothing daunted, fully resolved to undertake the boldly-conceived enterprise alone. On the morning of the sth we left Key West, and running to the north side of the Island of Cuba, touched at Sagua la Grande, for the purpose of telegraphing to our Consul- General at Havanna, Mr. Schufelt, to inform us of the time of the British mail steamer's departure from Havanna, but received no information. From thence we steered for the Old Bahama Channel, about 20 miles east of the north side of Cuba, 240 miles from Havanna, and about 10 from the lighthouse of Paredou del Grande. The channel contracts there to the width of 15 miles, and we could not very well miss the object of our search. There we laid off and on, during the night of the 1 7th, all our battery loaded, and the bulwarks around the pivot gun on the forecastle removed, Captain Wilks issued an order to Lieutenant D. M. Fairfax, our executive officer, to have two boats ready manned and armed to board the British packet as soon as she should be hove to under our guns, and in the event of Messrs. ,Mason, Slidell, Eustis, and M'Farland being on board c.filier Vo-make them prisoners, and send them immediately on board the San Jacinto, and also to offer in his name, to their families, his cabin, in the event they should determine to take a passage to tho United States in the San Jacinto, assuring them that all the atten tion and comforts we could command would be placed at their service, and closed the order with the following re mark :—" I trust that all those under your command, in executing this important and delicate duty, will conduct themselves with all the delicacy and kindness which be comes our naval service." In accordance with this order, Lieutenant Fairfax had the second and third cutters of the ship manned, armed, and kept in readiness, he having the command of the enterprise. In the second cutter were the following officers :—Lieut. D.M . Fairfax, commanding; Second Assistant-Engineer James B. Houston ; Boatswain H. P. Grace, with an armed crew. In the third cutter, Lieut. J. Greer; third Assist.-Engineer.G. W. Hall; Pay master's Clerk R.G. Simpson; Master's mate C. B. Dahlgi en, with an armed crew, marines, and a party of machinists. In the morning of the Bth inst. the officers and crew of this ship were anxiously and impatiently looking out for the' mai steamer about 11.40 the look-out at the mast-head re ported smoke as from a steamer from the westward and about 12 she was visible from the deck. We were all ready for her, beat to quarters, and as soon as she was within reach of our guns every gun of our starboard bat tery was trained upon her. A ehot from our pivot gun was fired across her bow. She hoisted English colours, but showed no disposition to slacken her speed or heave to. We hoisted the " star-spangled banner," and, as soon as she was close upon us, fired a shell across her bow, which brought her to. Our captain hailed her, and said he would send a boat on board, and ordered Lieutenant Fairfax to board her. He went in the second cutter : at the same time Lieutenant Green was already in the third cutter to shove from the port side should his assistance be required. On coming alongside the packet Lieutenant Fairfax ordered the other officers to remain in the boat with the crew until force should become necessary, and went on board alone. The captain of the mail steamer refused to show his papers and passenger list, knowing very well the object of our visit and the character and mission of the four gentlemen above-named. But Mr. Mason being recognised, a part of the armed crew were ordered from the boat and came on board, Messrs. Mason and Slidell were then persuaded to come on board the San Jacinto, but declined, and said that they would only yield by force; Mr. Slidell making the remark that "It would require considerable force to take him on board the San Jacinto." Lieutenant Fairfax then ordered Mr. Houston to return to our ship and report that the Confederate Commissioners were on hoard the mail-steamer and refused to come on board the San Jacinto by other means than force. Lieut. Greer then shove off and went alongside the Trent, sent his armed crew and marines onboard, and:stationed them at both gangways, and then, after a " gentle application" of force, the four gentlemen were taken in the 2d cutter and con veyed,on board of our ship, where they were received by Captain Wilks at the gangway, and shown into his cabin, where they are at the present time. Two other boats were then sent on board to remove the luggage, and the ladies having declined the hospitality offered them, at half-past three we parted company from the Trent, During the time our officers were on board the Trent the British passengers expressed their sympathies with the seceeded States in the strongest possible manner, and our officers were much abused and threatened by the crowd ; they were called pirates, robbers, and other opprobrious epithets, express ing great satisfaction at our loss at Bull Run and Lees burg. Our captain expressed much satisfaction at the gallant and efficient manner in which Lieutenant Fairfax (a Virginian by birth) and all the officers and crew under his command displayed in the execution of this del cate and important duty, and called the particular attention of the Navy Department to it. After parting company with the Trent we ran through the Santarem passage, cruised to the northward along the shores of Florida an South Carolina as far as Ch arleston, our gallant captain nod satisfied wi h the important capture, fully determined to take a part in the expedition against Port Royal, but to the regret of " all hands" on board we came too late. The Susquehanna and Alabama were off Charleston, and the Florida off Hatteras. After leaving Charleston Bay, we encountered strong head winds, and our coal being ex hausted, we put into Hampton Roads the next day, took in coal, and after battling 40 hours with a severe north wester, arrived at Sandy Hook about 7.30 p.m., on the 18th, On entering the Narrows, we were boarded by a steam-tug with Marshal I\lurray and Deputy Marshal Sandford on board. '1 hey delivered to Captain Wilks despatches from the Secretary of the Navy, Gideon Welles, and Secretary of State, William H. Seward. As soon as Captain Wilkes read these despatches, he turned the ship's head to Boston, where Marshal Murray was ordered to deliver the "illus trious prisoners" at Fort Warren. --- 306 __,., DINNER TO CAPTAIN WILKES. A complimentary dinner was given to Comman der Wilkes at the Rivere House, Boston, when he repeated substantially the statements which have appcpral in print with reference to the energetic movements of the San Jacinto. Capt. - WILKES said—Previous to his decision to act as he did he consulted all the authorities—Kent, Wheaton, and Vattel—and satisfied himself that written despatches from a belligerent were contra band on a neutral vessel ; and he considered that as rebel ambassadors must be the embodiment of despatches, it was his duty to arrest their progress, unless they could show proper passports from the Federal Government. (Laughter and cheers.) This they could not do, and he detained them in his custody. He was satisfied that the Trent was a legal prize, of great value to his ship if taken, but there had been no dissenting voice on hoard his vessel as to the wisdom of the course he pursued. In the process of the arrests he was glad to say everything was conducted properly, and nothing occurred which would not do honour to the Ameri can navy. (Cheers.) He would have felt justified in seizing the Trent itself, but he concluded to allow the vessel to proceed, though he thus deprived his men of a prize worth 150,000 dols. ; and he took pride and pleasure in saying that there was not a man on board the San Jacinto who did not say he had done right. Governor ANDREW proposed the health of " Lieutenant Fairfax, and the other officers of the St. Jacinto." _ _ Lieutenant FATRPAX responded as follows :—I thank you, gentlemen, for this cordial welcome. I am in heart a Virginian, but I am a native of the United States, and owe allegiance to the Govern ment of the United States. (Laud applause.) When BIIiKENHEA BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.

COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) IN RE CORBETT. In the application of Mr. Cobbett for a writ of habeas corpus for discharge from the Queen's Bench Prison, the Lord Chancellor, after stating the circumstances of the case, said there were three points for his consideration-Ist, Whether in prosecuting, as executor of his father, and elect ing to be non-suited, he should be liable to pay costs, as if he was successful in his action of ejectment he would not obtain costs. He was incarcerated for the amount of these costs, £6O. His lordship was bound to consider that, ac cording to the rules of law, when a plaintiff was non-suited ho must pay costs. Then the next objection that his lord ship had to consider was, that the writ on which the plain tiff (Mr. Cobbett) was taken in execution did not agree with the record of the judgment. It appears that in making out the roil of the judgment the name of one of the defendants in the action was entered and approved of after judgment was obtained, and that it was an inaccuracy of the clerks of the court of common law. On the objection being made, an amendment was entered in the parchment roll of the record of the action in order that the name might appear on the records. I must refer to the record and re cognise the application that was made to the Court, and say that that was a sound judgment. Then the last objec tion is that in an application of this nature he might have been discharged under the recent Bankruptcy Act. I can not interfere with the judicial determination of the register, and I cannot give any judgment upon it until some adju dication is made by the Register, from which there may be an appeal. Then if be (Mr. Cobbett) swears that he is not worth £5 in the world he may sue in forma pauperis, and therefore this application must be dismissed. SHERIFFS' COURT. wirARVES AND DOCKS-IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE OF TRADE TO IMPORTERS OF GOODS-NEWCOMBE V. NICHOLS. This was an action to recover £5 13s. for charges paid by the plaintiff, who is an importer of fcreign goods, in conse quence of the alleged hasty conduct of defendant, who is agent for the Hettonchater steamer, trading from Trieste. Plaintiff said that he had 40 cases of beads in the steamer, which reported at the Custom-house on the sth Nov. last. Witness entered his goods early on the 6th, and when his man applied for them he found them in a barge alongside the ship. Now witness submitted that this was very hasty conduct on the part of the defendant, and further that 48 hours was always allowed before goods were removed from a ship except by the owner's entry. In the docks 48 hours was allowed, and by that principle wharves should be governed. For the defence it was urged that the forty-eight hours as applied to sailing vessels was very different to steamers, which landed and unloaded at wharves in the river, and were obliged to be very careful about their machinery. One witness, called by Mr. Charles Smith (instructed by _ :r. Waghorn, of Mark-lane) for defendant, said twenty four hours only was allowed for steamers ; and another witness, clerk to an extensive firm, said that in some cases waive hours only was allowed. It was also stated that the steamer reported at 10 o'clock on the sth, and that plaintiff's order did not come down itntil 2 or 3 o'clock in the afternoon of the Gth. Verdict for the plaintiff. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day BOW-STREET. Martha Perry, 24, Maria Perry, 53, widow, of No. 6, Boyle-street, Saville-row, and Joseph Palmer, of 138, Sloan-street, were placdl at the bar charged with forging and uttering a bill of sale upon certain furniture and effects not their property, on the 2d of October, for £550, and de frauding the London and Westminster Loan and Discount Company. After the examination of several witnesses, the prisoners were remanded. MAB LBOROUGH-STREET. CREATING A DISTURBANCE AT THE NEW ROYALTY THEATRE.—A. DANGEROUS FELLOW.—Edward Tree, of 47, Marylebone .lane, employed at the New Royalty Theatre, Soho, was charged with creating a disturbance at the theatre, and violently assaulting one of the officers on duty at the theatre. Michael O'Shaughnessy, 37 C, said—Between eight and nine last night I was on duty at the New Royalty Theatre, when my attention was called to the prisoner, who was causing a great annoyance on the stage, and elsewhere. I got the prisoner down stairs, and without the least pro vocation- he struck me a violent blow in the mouth and cut my lip. The prisoner then behaved with such violence that it took two or three to hold him down till another constable came to my assistance. I also received a serious sprain of my thumb. Daring the whole time the prisoner used the most beastly language before the young females and others employed at the theatre. Mr. Mansfield—Was he drunk ? O'Shaughnessy—He had been drinking, but well knew what he was about. Prisoner—lt was through not having my wages on Saturday night. A gentleman, residing in Warwick-street: said —Last night I had occasion to go behind the scenes connected with a literary matter. I then understood that the prisoner, who was employed there as a carpenter, refused to let the cur tain rise, and threatened that if it did he would cut the cord and let it fall again. Mr. Goulard paid tha prison at once some money he claimed, and the prisoner's language was very violent. As soon as the prisoner saw the con stable coming, he ran away off the stage. I was obliged afterwards to interfere, or I believe the prisoner, who had two knives in his possession, would have stabbed the officer. Mr. Goulard did not wish to press the case against the prisoner, as far as the disturbance in the theatre was ccncemed ; but as to the assault on the officer, that was for his worship. Prisoner—l have been employed at several theatres, and was never turned out of one before. Mr. Mansfield—l invariably find that the most frightful assaults are committed by men like the prisoner, under cir cumstances of this kind —the prisoner having knives in his possession—and that the most respectable officers are gene ral y the victims of such ruffians. I shall fine you £5 or a month. MIS DAPS SHIPPING. LoNnox, [Dec. 10.—Wind this day at noon—South- Westerly ; moderate breeze and fine weather, but rather cloudy.

Friday next was then fixed for resuming the proof in Edinburgh. FORTUNATE MINERS.--Messrs. Cobden, Bright, and some friends, about three years ago, purchased the Dy liffe Mines for the sum of £24,000, and they wore bound also to lay out £lO,OOO in explorations. Their late returns have been upwards of 200 tons of lead ore per month, which it is believed yields a profit of about £l,OOO per month, and they expect now to return upwards of 250 tons per month. Mining Towns'. doubt upon a question of this sort; and for my own part, although nothing could be more deplorable than for us to have any issue with England in this great struggle in which we are engaged, I trust, if the issue does come, we are prepared to meet it like tnen (loud applause), VIA we are not only ready, as citizens of the United States, to endorse the conduct of our gallant officer, but ready to maintain it through the channels of diplomacy, and, if neces sary, at the cannon's mouth. (Loud applause.) We desire peace with all nations at this juncture—we desire peace especially with England ; bat I trust we shall not buy peace at the cost of our wvn de gradation. (Prolonged and hearty cheering.) Let me conclude these remarks by offering as a sentiment, "The United States and England." We all desire peace with England, but I trust we shall never ask am thing that is not right, and we shall never submit to anything that is wrong; (Loud applause.) - A • • Other ~ , pceches were made by the Hon. Alexander H. Rice, Lieutenant Geer, and Judge Russell. The Judge said,—lf England would not have peace, it w4s good for her to know that the blood of '76 and 1812 flows as warmly in American veins as ever, and that Stewart and Bainbridge and Decatur have not been left without successors in the land. THE FRENCH . ARMY AT ROME. this difficulty, which has now culminated in open war, was pending, I was on the coast of Africa, where, of course, I could not enter into the merits of the case ; but, as a Southern man, I felt that I would give all my energies to sustain the stars and stripes. (Cheers.) When the question was presented to my mind whether I should identify myself with my State, and withdraw from the United States service, I could see nothing but the United States Government, which I had pledged myself to sup port. (Applause.) Sticking to that text, I readily arrived at the conclusion that I had but one duty to perform, and that was the duty I owed to the United States Government, of which I had been for 24 years a humble representative. When I saw those who were seeking the disruption of this Union turning their eyes to the two great Powers of Europe—England and France—as their only hope, it seemed to me a pitiable thing that men who had contended that no foreign Power should put its foot on this continent should now be so ready to wel come their aid, and I felt the full force of the ob. ligations which we all owe to the Government. Capt Wilkes put me forward in the position which has called forth the expression of your feelings to night, and I take little credit to myself for the part I took in the act which seems to have met the approval of the Government and of the people of the country. It was by no means an agreeable duty to go on board and arrest my old friend, Mr. Mason, whose family is connected with me by marriage, though we are not, as some of the papers have said, cousins. I knew pretty well what I had to do, and I knew, soon after I got on board the vessel, that I should have something more to con tend with than the four gentlemen I was to take with me to the San Jacinto. Mrs. Slidell and her daughters were there ; they were womanly and ladylike ; but they were under a great deal of excitement, and you may well imagine that they gave utterance to a good many not very pleasant expressions. I extended to them the courtesy, agreeably to the instructions of Captain Wilkes, of a passage in the San Jacinto, which they declind, and they were permitted to go on their way to Mope, and I made as short work of the matter as I could. (Laughter and applause.) There was nothing at all meritorious in what I did. I introduced myself to the captain of the Trent, who received me properly ; but when I in formed him of my mission, he demurred consider ably to the proposition. Seeing Messrs. Mason and Slidell not far off, I told him it was not necessary to insist upon is hat I had at first demanded, an ex amination of his passenger list, as I had tangible evidence that my friends were on board. I then addressed Messrs. Mason and Slidell and told them my mission. They intimated that they would not go unless force were used. I then told them I was prepared for that—(cheers) —and in a short time I had sufficient force on board to impress every one in the ship with that fact. Lieutenant Greer, of the San Jacinto, came on board, and took quite as active a part in the transaction as Lieutenant Fairfax did. He was rather apprehensive that the ladies and the mob would overcome me, and presented six very inoffensive marines on board, to be made offensive if necessary. (Applause.) That give rise to the report about a charge of the marines with fixed bayonet on the ladies. Messrs. Mason and Slidell conducted themselves with a good deal of propriety under the circumstances. Mr. Mason was perfectly courteous throughout. Mr. Slidell, as we all know, has more crustiness in his disposi tion, but it must be remembered that he had much more to embarrass him, having his wife and family with him ; therefore it was more difficult to impress him with the belief that I intended to carry out the purpose of my visit. He said he would not go unless I employed more force than I then seemed willing to show; but by the aid of the officers the gentlemen were removed on board the San Jacinto, where they were made very comfortable. With the spirit of men brought up in naval or military life we felt desirous to make them feel as little as pos sible the discomforts of imprisonment. On arriv ing here I was instructed to escort them to Fort Warren, and introduce them to Colonel Dimmock, to spare them the mortification of being placed in the hands of the United States Marshal. I took leave of them with those feelings which strike me as perfectly natural under the circumstances. When we were about to part, Mr. Mason said he could not express how much gratitude he felt for the at tention and kindness he had received. (Applause.) I feel the full force of your kind exhibition of feel ing to-night; but I take no credit at all to myself —it belongs entirely to Captain Wilkes. It affords me great pleasure to be here, for I am no stranger to Boston. I went to school in Jamaica Plain, and I have :often, as a boy, been to Faneuil Hail, and listened to Mr. Everett and some other great men of Massachusetts. As I stand here to-night my me mory goes back to the time when our fathers of Virginia and Massachusetts were boon companions, and made good cheer in the city of Boston; and it is with a great deal of satisfaction that I receive your welcome here to-day with Capt. Wilkes." (Cheers.) The Hon. George J. Bigelow, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, in the course of his remarks, spoke as follows : " But, Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, this act of our guest and his associates does certainly present a very grave question of international law. Without pretending to have made a very thorough search into the matter, I venture to say that England, un less she falsifies her own conduct, unless she falsi fies the statements of her own statesmen, unless she sets aside the judgments of her own judiciary, can not undertake to make an is sue with us upon this to l t he es g m r a e y at re a t c .e t r . to (L he o r ud ow a n nd r e e p o r r o d l o s t g o e he l c . o h w e cheer taneu , to g tde . Ve sta t eme nts of her own st atesmen, and, above all, to the tjudgments t o f of the e rleading tto ot this i which gallant officer has seen fit to pursue. (Applause.) It is perfectly true that England may, if she sees fit, make an issue with us on this question ; an astute man may draw nice distinctions ; but if England is go verned by the principles by which she professes to be governed, she can make no just quarrel with us. (Cheers.) Common sense teaches us—we need not go to law books to find it out—that it does not require the " transportation of arms, powder, or shot, to make it contraband of war." Men who go out from our midst, for the purpose of building up the Confederacy and destroying our government, are as much engaged is a belligerent operation, the sbip that carries them is as much engaged in a belligerent operation, as if she bore arms or munitions of war. Sophistry must yield to clear reason, a nd no one can The Paris correspondent of the lUorning Post (second edition) says : In my communication of yesterday I sent you an article from tho Constitutionnel which gave the cost of the French army of occupation at Rime from 1849 to 1861, viz., 128,225,000 fr, fhe statement is much commented upon, not that the figures arc new, but from the fact of a Government journal parading them before the public at a moment when the nation's budget is under revision by M. Fould. The Minister of Finance would doubtless like to econo- mise in future the 9,480,000 fr.. which the present condition of Italy demanded for the French forces in 15.,31 ; and I have no hesitation in saying that an effort will be made by M. Fould and some one or two other members of the Cabinet to withdraw from Rome, Politically the occupation is a scandal to the French nation, and a continued source of humiliation—humiliation to an extent far beyond what the public is aware of. The non possunzus is ' but a mild answer compared to some France has received when, as military guardian of the Papacy, she has made the most reasonable demands to im prove the governing system. The people who have paid their millions to maintain, with bayonets, a corrupt and corrupting Government get from the Church nothing but insult and ingratitude from the crew of cardinals. The Pope, who owes so much to Napoleon 111., aye, in 1848 49, too, orders his clergy to conspire against his throne, and plants a hostile cabal in the very Tuileries. And it may be asked—" Is France for ever to find an army for the Popes of Rome ?" Unless the Papacy renounces its temporal power, anti the Popes of Rome become the friends instead of the enemies of theltalian people a foreign soldiery must ever mount guard at the Vatican, unless Roman Christianity retrogrades to the pretensions, habits, customs, ideas, and feelings of the middle ages. One may ask, too, what good has France done to the Roman Church herself by this expensive military guardianship ? She has permitted the Pope to govern just as he likes, and after 12 years misrule of his people, his Holiness could not now remain 12 hours in Rome after the withdrawal of the foreign . force, Twist and turn the picture how you may, it is most unsatisfactory, and you cannot find out one light spot. The press of France, saving the journals of the Jesuits, have long protested against the occupation of Rome by the troops of this country, simply to support an oppressive Government opposed to France-created free Italy; and there are in the Imperial Council those who have spoken boldly on the subject, but still ultramontanism triumphs—the Church blesses universal suffrage, and the ignorance of the masses. Popery has yet a large stock-in-trade to work with even in the France of 1861. Tf Rome can command her members in the Parliament of Protestant Eng land, she can, of course, exercise a.wonderful power in a Roman Catholic country, however infidel may be the great cities of the empire. We witnessed this last session in the Legislative Chambers ; we shall hear more when the deputies meet in January ; and I fear a majority will condemn M. Fould's de ..siied economy, as regards saving the country the expense of the Roman occupation, an occupation which has SG long prostituted the flag of France. THR AIIf_ENITIES OF TILE AIIERICAN PRESS. The Yew York Times alludes to an article in the Yaw York Berta as follows : "Is it at all surprising that language like this, habitually used, with every conceivable phrase and form of malignant exasperation, by a professed friend and organ of the Government, claiming, moreover, to have a hundred thousand subscribers, and to represent, with a special fidelity, the senti ments of the great body of the American people, should arouse a bitter hostility against the cause of the Union among the people of England ? If the Government will take care that its policy in dealing with England is not misrepresented or misunder stood by the English people, we have not the slightest fear of any disastrous consequences. That policy will be found to have been marked by the most friendly sentiments, coupled with a purpose to maintain our own independence, and to insist upon the due observance of justice and international law. While President Lincoln has taken good care to have England understand that we cannot submit to wrong, he has been equally careful to show that we ask nothing but what is right. As a measure of ordinary precaution, the Government owes it to itself and the country that these infamous and in cendiary attempts to embroil us in war with Eng land should cease. The Administration is suffering infinite embarrassment, and the country is incur ; ring serious peril from this cause every day. These diatribes are copied far and wide into the columns of the hostile press. They are rehearsed and quoted by every agent and ally of the rebel Government as proof of the envenomed hostility towards England of the Government and people of the Northern States. They are contrasted with the dignified and decorous terms in which Southern journals speak on the same topic, and are used with the skill of practised diplomatists everywhere in Europe, to alienate those who should be our friends, and to blacken the cause which, for purposes of more effective mischief, the Herald pretends to serve. The gentleman to whom we have referred declares that the Govern ment of England is thoroughly and heartily desir ous of preserving friendly relations with the United States ; but that if these intolerant and devilish provocations to the pride, the self-respect, the pre judices, and the passions of the English people are to be continued, with the apparent acquiescence or the toleration of our Government, it will be impossible for the Ministry to stem the torrent of passionate wrath which will sweep against it. President Lincoln, they allege, has shown that he does not lack the power or the courage to check and suppress such utterances, when they seem to him dangerous to the public welfare, He has exer cised it baldly and fearlessly in many less flagrant cases, and if he fails to do so now it can only be because he is not without sympathy with the motive which underlies them. It is useless to disguise the fact—the Administration is in a very large degree held responsible abroad for the general spirit and temper of the Herald upon the subject; and so long as this continues to be the case, we must be pre pared for any extremity to which the exalted pride and excited passions o f the Euglish people may drive the Government, which holds its power only by the sufferance of their r epresentatives. It is an easy matier for any man with a torch to set a town on fire ; even so paltry and stinking an instrument as a lucifer match may fire a magazine which shall blow up an army to atoms. The devilish disposi ; tion is all that is needed, and of this the incendiary course of the Herald for the last three months has s hown that it has no lack." The government have ordered the Royal Mail steamer Parana to be surveyed, to ascertain her capabilities for the conveyance of troops.
