The above work contains most useful and interesting information on the physiological changes which occur in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth, puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that degree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity depend. 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.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra.

By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief _prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 5, 1861. THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. (From the Special Correspondent of the Times.) WASHINGTON, OCT, 19. In my last letter, in the hurry of closing the en velope, a copy of Mr. Seward's circular and some remarks upon it were omitted ; but the omission is of little consequence, as the mail must have taken over the document, and the news of the effect produced by it in New York and other cities of the United States. The immediate impression in every one's mind was, " Mr. Seward is aware of some action on the part of England which must result in war." Then followed another course of thought,—" The Secre tary is bent on doing something which will lead to a war with England." I infer these reflections from the words of many people I met last week. It has been the favourite dream of a party in the United States to get up a war with some foreign Power, in the hope that the sentiment of regard for the common continent and of enmity to Europe which exists in America would weld the North and South together for the purposes of defence, and, in spite of failure and repudiation, the politicians go on with their work, and are never tired of inventing "Reinforce ments for Canada!"—" 25,000 Men Ordered out !" —" Aggressive Insolence of England !" and such like. But no one pays any heed to them. There fore it was that Mr. Seward's circular caused alarm, as it seemed to give support to the rumours which have been so sedulously set afloat week after week, that England was going to break the blockade, or to do something else which would lead to a declaration of hostilities. Any way the effect was startling and unpleasant. Either Mr. Seward—we must beg his pardon, for the President is alone responsible—either the President was reck less or timid, or he knew more than the rest of the world, and he did not care to speak openly of the danger, but by precautions against it indicated that it might be at hand. It is vain to argue the point with some people here. It may be shown that it would never pay us to drag cotton out by force and bring on a war with our best customer, that our neutrality has been most distinctly proclaimed and most honourably maintained. There is a fixed principle in the head of every American North and Soutb, that the British empire rests on a bale of cotton, just as the Lord Chancellor ailis on a sack of wool, and the speeches of some of our foolish speechmakers now and then afford sup port to their hallucination. War would destroy our trade, but then it is supposed that the British people have a morbid taste for spinning cotton, re gardless of profit, and that, like silkworms, they must spin as a condition of existence. And so some of my friends shook their heads, and said sorrow fully, —" Is it not dreadful to think that Engand can be capable of so much baseness ? But she will be too late. Before she can act we shall have trod den rebellion under foot." Well, this very day, the papers contain, as a conznzunique no doubt, another despatch of Mr. Seaward's, but it is ad dressed to Lord Lyons, and it thought to be so useful in doing away withanyind impressions that it is published at once. The correspondence which I enclose tells its own story, and one cannot refuse to admire the rapidity of Mr. Seward's pen, who, in answer to Lord Lyons' despatch of the 14th of October, on the same day writes a most voluminous and elaborate article as an expose of the whole ques tion of suspension of habeas corpus, arbitrary arrests, and the rights of foreigners, and replies to the points, we must admit, with as much brusque strength as celerity. The whole American people will, I doubt not, sustain Mr. Seward's tone and positions, and certainly the despatch to which he had to reply was not a very remarkable paper, nor quite worthy, perhaps, of the Foreign-office. The effect of these arguments will be best treated at the other side of the Atlantic, but it may be remarked that the cases selected for remonstrance were far from being the strongest that could have been found. Every word that comes from Great Bri tain, every act that is done by her, is closely— nay, unjustly—construed by Americans. she may not look over the hedge, while France can steal a horse if she pleases. The suspicious, jealous, shrewish young lady detects foul play in every move ment of her mother-in-law, and will " have none of that." I actually heard an officer find fault with Lieut. Grant, of her Majesty's ship Steady, because he was not quite pleased with the captain of the United States ship Vandalia, off Charleston, for firing a round shot across his bows to bring him to. Thus one reads continually of the good faith of France in her neutrality and of the perfidy of England. When the French officers in the Crimea snubbed General M'Clellan and his brother Commissioners, not a word was said of it aloud, nor was there, on the other hand, the least expression of satisfaction at the cordial reception of the Commissioners by the English authorities, and but for Colonel Delafield's report nothing would have been known of the facts. Had the case been reversed, we should have been threatened with nothing short of war —a menace, by the by, iwhich might almost be stereotyped in some of the most widely read, and therefore least influential, of the American journals. Since my last letter up to this date little has oc curred of interest or importance. Reconnaissances have pushed out carefully from the front of the Federal army, and have discovered, as far as Fairfax and Vienna—even to creeks below Alexandria and along the road to Draineville—that the enemy are not in force and do not hold the ground, but that they are in observation, and have their troops well thrown back towards the old position at Manassas. It is believed that the Confederates know every move of their opponents, who are not at all so fortunate, and have to grope their way in the dark. The negro population are thought to act for their masters with zeal and fidelity. We hear of regiments and guards of coloured people down South, and when the enemy were at Munson's Hill one of their most forward skirmishers—an in defatigable fellow, always loading and firing—was a black man. There have been no great reinforce ments received by this army lately, in consequence of the diversion of Ohio and Illinois and Indiana troops to the State of Kentucky and to the West, and the largest estimate of the forces in the field does not raise it much above the number given in one of my recent letters. It is the New England States, and the emigration from them in the West, which have put forth their strength in this war for the Union, and the Puritan and Quaker element nim spirit. eeent,isn g Cal meetings, and ar in t s h dt ap r nr e e g aA i cmhs Associations of the other St a t es h as b een an i mate d b y a s i m i lar on n cg t in t iaonn c d a s m r; epvt the v h e a e l r s e, colonelsa a n re d p y r o a gu y inv e ge r benedictions, the majors preach, the sergeants pray, and the battalions march, singing sternly,— ig Old John Brown lies a mouldering in his grave But his soul is marching on ; Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah; Old John Brown lies a mouldering in - But his soul is marching on." No army was ever so well provided, in quantity at all events, with chaplains, and in some men's minds the war for the Union is a crusade for all that is good and holy in the world. The gulf that separated Christian Knight from Saracen Emir was not wider than that which divides the Northern volunteer from the Southern chivalry. The contest over, new political relations may be established, but France and England will not be more distinct. There seem to be no apprehen sions that this great mass of armed men can not be disposed of by a few circulars. They aro S an immense power in the State and of the State, and they can determine issues not only with their votes, but with their bayonets. The regular army, of course, views its volunteer associates with feel ings it dares not e xpress. But each is a check upon the other, and, while t he former would g ladly re- form some of the mischie fs, as the y conceive, of de mocracy as it exists here, and would resist any attempt to turn this into an abolition war, the latter are determined to keep the power they have got, and are leavened by a strong anti-slavery feeling, which, in some regiments, is nearly unani mous. It is scarcely possible to imagine any call ing in life for which a man will bo as well fitted after three years' absence as he was when he left it. What a rift three years cat i make in the purposes of a life ! To suppose that the immense mass of men collected here can ever return to their usual avocations is to give them credit foe more tenacity in civil pursuits than human nature exhibits gene rally elsewhere. What will be their humour at the end of the war if it last three years ? They will be entitled to their discharge, but long before that the farm must have found some ofief superinten dence, the trade and the profession must have gone to the dogs, and to tens of thousands 11 dollars a month and food and clothes must be a better thing in the present than anything in the future can offer to them. They have pay, subsistence, clothing, pensions, " bounty lands," just the same as the re gulars. They have, however, the privilege of elect ing their own officers to a great extent, which is open to many objections. Law or custom induces the Governors of the States to leave to the men of the companies of the State Volunteers the nomina tion of their captains and subalterns, and the habit of acting so as to please the men beccmes inveterate in any officer who has once gained a certain amount of favour and hopes to procure higher advancement. It will be a very glorious proof of the patriotism and purity of the American people if they -over come all temptations which usually beset men in power, and lay down that which they have had conferred on them for a special object as soon as it shall have been accomplished. To all but the eye of Faith that object is still far off indeed. Matters in Missouri are no better. What would be thought in London if an enemy's battery were playing on the shipping below Blackwell? In Kentucky the Federalists do not appear to have gained much, if anything, and the Union party there confess they must have the aid of troops from the other States, or they cannot hold their own against the bold and enterprising Confederates. The money is flowing now to the extent of 1,400,000 dole, a day or more—that are, for Mr. Chase, to the immense delight s is, the notes ork bankers, ha s l e ftheNew several millions of the loan in :heir vaults, on which they have been drawing their interest since the date of the first instalment. The Treasury notes are now regularly in circulation, and Ere rather liked than otherwise, and, as General Scott pointed out, they are found to be convenient by the soldiers, who were and had difficulty friends at home, i f n or t m ra e n r l s y m p it a t i i d ng in th g e o i l r d p e a x y cl t u o siv th el e y ir , as there is no system of money-orders known to the post-offices in this country. OCTOBER 20. General M'Clellan—in sonic perplexity probably in reference to the course to be adopt e d to war d s who gives w a y b e f ore pressure en it is remo ve d, or to sprea d s o u n c ly h a t n o e s p l a r s i t n i g c e o n n e t m w y h , out into some new quarter—ordered a reconnais sance yesterday morning in the direction of Fairfax Court House and Flint-hill, and the creek called Difficult. As the good Virginians never made any map of their country of value for military purposes, or, in other words, of accuracy and minuteness of detail, it was essential to procure an idea of this part of the theatre of operations, and the topogra phical engineers who have been busy at work lay ing down authentic plans of hill, dale, ravine, and bypath were in requisition once more. General M'Dowell had no such advantages. He was shoved " on to Richmond" without knowing anything of the country except what he could learn from ill disposed natives and his own eyes as he advanced, for the engineers could do little to assist him, and their efforts to reconnoitre on the Thursday before Bull's Run served only to show they were dangerous and futile. General M'Clellan left his quarters in Washington on Friday. and spent nearly all Satur day in examining the front of the position along which he is slowly pushing his battalions ; and his unusual absence from the city gave rise to many of the queer eccentricities of expression called rumours. It must be pleasant to get away some times from Cabinet Ministers and statesmen, though, truth to tell, the General is not much concerned about keep ing them waiting, for as yet he feels his legs very strong under him. He is standing on the supports of all the United States, but one step may make him know that his feet are of clay—that soft and yielding stuff which is only to be hardened in the fire of victorious battle. His quarters are in a pleasant house at the corner of a square—not unlike that of Gordon or Euston. By day the door and windows are open ; a sentry in blue tunic, blue cap, blue trousers, all without what are called facings, brass buttons, with a distracted eagle thereupon, and a waistbelt with a brass buckle inscribed " U. 5.," walks up and down, generally with a pipe or cigar in his mouth and his firelock carried horizontally over his shoulder, so as to bring the bayonet on a level with any eye of which the unwary owner may be coming round the corner. Several Dragoon horses are hitched up by the rail and the trees along the pavement, standing patiently and goodnaturedly as:American horses aro wont to do, or, at most, I , stamping and flicking off the flies which in the United States try patience and good temper so hardly. At the door are ready orderlies, two quick intelligent young men, wh o are civil, without being servile, various and dw s verythe independent soldiers lounging or sitting on the steps reading newspapers, and waiting for answers to their messages. There is a sort of " Open Sesame" air about the place which does not prevent the secrets inside from being well kept. In the parlours are seated officers and visi tors smoking or talking. The tables are covered with a litter of papers and journals and torn en velopes, and the clacking tongue of the telegraph instrument resounds through the building. The General is generally upstairs, and sundry gentle Cerberi bar the entrance to his presence, nor is he destitute of the art of making himself invisible when he pleases. His staff are excellent men, I am told, and most courteous and gentlemanly I know, so far as my personal experience goes, nor could any commander be served more efficiently than the General is by such men as Brigadier-General Vanvliet, or Col. Hudson, notwitstanding the ab sence of a good deal of the stiffness which marks the approaches to some of the lead-quarters, as Gen. M'Clellan found when ho and his brother Commis sioners sought in vain to obtain access to Marshal Pelissier in the Crimea, The General, a short time ago an employe on the Central Illinois Railway, but still with so much of the old spirit in him that he studied closely all the movements of that short Italian campaign of which he is not doomed to give a counterpart in this part of the world, is a noc turne, and at the close of long laborious days works hard and fast late into the night till sleep pur sues and overtakes him, when he surrenders readily, for he has one of those natures which need a fair share of rest, capable though they be of great exertion without it on the occasion. He works hard, too, in the saddle, and when the business of the morning has been despatched, off he goes, attended by a few officers and a small escort of orderlies and troops, across the Potomac, visiting the camps, examining positions, eating where for tune spreads the board, and returning, generally after nightfall, to look over the reports, to issue orders, to baffle little politicians, and to stand on the defensive against those of larger dimensions. Here ho is natural, but vigilant—candid, but prudent— tobacco ruminant or fumant, full of life, and yet contemplative—of a temper, indeed, which seems to take some of its colour from that of the accidents o attired t r t o i ru lagered n beer; s a v i c n n i nd again,' o ed rf h the as an of its surroundings in time and pl ace. Extraordi nary acts are ascribed to him of w hi ch he knows insothi testingn journali s ts . . theHe At quality u n aet the time, e t y"f l n Alrash simple volunteer, he is visiting the Commissariat stores and making practical experiments on bread and meat, Anon ; be is encountered as a 'idette, or starts out of a wood with embrowned face as a con traband, and before the week is over he has done everything except the thing he has been really engaged on. Oh, " Young Napoleon," what a dreadful hundred days are in store for you. One can fancy even now the soldier sighing for the angulus iste in the palatial building devoted to the labours of Central Illinois officials at Chicago. OCTOBER 22, The council held at General M'Clellan's quarters last night was attended by the President, the mem bers of the Cabinet, and the majority of the divi sional generals who are within reach of the capital. In the afternoon " the Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Potomac" visited the Navy-yard and had a long interview with Captain Dahlgren in re ference to the measures which must be adopted to clear the river. The United States' arsenals are destitute of the materiel which would now be in valuable. From all sides come cries to the Navy Department for heavy guns and sea-service mor tars. The Department has not got them, but all hands are working away to supply them, and in Mr. Fox, the Assistant-Secretary, the Government has an officer of ability, good sense, vigour, and re solution, who can do anything but improvise heavy artillery. So it is that the want of sea-service mor tars offers at this time an impediment to the esta blishment of batteries on the Maryland side of the river, to shell the Confederates out of their works, which could be done easily. The range is not long for 10-inch and 13-inch mortars, being from 2,000 to 4,000 yards, and as yet the Confederates have used only guns of small calibre, rifled, indeed, but not adapted to do much damage by their shot and shell to shipping. But the batteries are to be made, and the , expedition which sailed from Annapolis yesterday will probably find a diversion in store for it about Accotink and Pohick, which are to be seen, I trust, on the maps a few miles below Alex andria and Fort Vernon—creeks of the Potomac. It will `have been observed that although the policy of the Federalist Government is necessarily aggressive, seeking to recover that which has been lost, their measures have been nearly all dictated by the movements of the Confederates fßin the time they stood on the defensive at Sumter, rallied around Washington, and concentrated at St. Louis, down to this moment, when it occurs to them that it would be rather a desirable thing to prevent the Potomac being quite closed up, the danger and the probability of which must have struck any one, as they did me, when I wrote long ago on the subject. And here it may be said that the Confederates have not exhibited much wisdom or vigour in their proceedings. Had they estab lished the works and armed them with heavy guns two months ago the difficulties of getting the Fede ralist army in order would have proved much greater, and the inconvenience to the capital would have been most serious; Now stores have been ac cumulated of certain kinds, the army is in such force that a corps can be spared down there for land operations; above all, the navy is now in a state to afford a few gunboats and steam sloops to resist the attempt to close up the river, which could have been effected, supposing the Confederates had the means, a few weeks ago with ease and impunity. Light rifled guns are not the articles for such work. Per haps the Confederates have no heavy guns to spare. At all events, the firing as yet proves there is little or no harm to shipping in those fine rifled bolts, for they cut through without shattering what is op posed to their flight, and " nobody is hurt" on board. The Confederates rarely fire on vessels going down the river. Therefore, when the safe passage of a flotilla of schooners is reported, the papers set up a cry of joy and declare the river is not closed. It is the policy of the enemy to let all ships go down if they are not vessels of war, for Washington can send out little just now. But vessels coming up are obstructed as far as possible, and though a small craft now and then runs the fire, or is tugged up, the effect of .the batteries, at this moment, actually is to bring up a whole armada, laden with coal, fuel, fish, vegetables, hay, and corn and provision in the various broad bends of the lower part of the river. When the Pensacola, which is now lying off Alex andria, is ready to go down, we may hear of a severe encounter' with the batteries on shore; but it will rejoice our own naval authorities to know that the engines of that fine vessel have proved a complete failure, and that it will be a fortnight before she can move her powerful armament to meet the Whitworths or other rifled ordnance of the Secessionists. While the Generals were as sembled last night the report of Col. Baker's death reached the city, accompanied by stories of a great reverse or success, as the case might be, at Edward's Ferry, a point on the Potomac, opposite Goose Creek. On the Virginia side a road leads from the Ferry to Leesburg. On the Maryland shore there are roads to Poolesville, where Brigadier Stone's column is lying, and up to Darnstown, which is the head-quarters of Gen. Banks' force. Early yes terday morning, before dawn, a detachment of 400 men of the 15th Massachusett's Regiment crossed over and proceeded on the road to Leesburg, with out encountering the enemy till they got within a mile or so of the town. At the same time a small force of cavalry marched on their flank towards the left. Both were met at last by the Confedefates, under Gen. Evans, and were driven back to the river, where the infantry made a stand, reinforced by the remaining companies of their regiment, by the 20th, and apparently by Baker's Californians. As the islands in the river had been occupied by the Federalists, it seems to me es if General Banks had been ordered to advance and occupy Leesburg, in the expectation that it was lightly held; but the Confederates were somewhere in the neighbourhood, and, as far as I can make out, they succeeded in forcing the whole column to the verge of the river on the Virginian side, which is said to be in posses sion of Gen. Banks. In heading a movement of his regiment, Brigadier-General Baker, who was con sidered a very meritorious officer, was killed; and from the tone of the Washington papers this morn ing, it would appear as if the ill-repressed impa tience of the public must soon break forth. Hitherto the mutterings have been only audible in New York, but now at Gen. M'Clellan's very door we hear, a propos of the death of the above-mentioned Brigadier— " We trust in Heaven there will be no more sacrifices like this, but that, if anything in earnest is to be done, it will be done quickly. We have had reverses enough, and the whole country is beginning to demand something more." The action must have been important if all Stone's force moved out, and if it was afterwards obliged to' seek assistance from General Banks; but it is so near post hour I cannot spare time to ascertain the particulars. If Leesburg be held by the enemy, it is obvious that the ca:culations of the Federalists must be recast. It was supposed that no great force would be left there, and that the Confederates would retire, as soon as an advance took place, towards Vienna. Wherever the Federalists go there appears to be a force ready to meet them. The news from ' Missouri is not encouraging. It is known that one of the best officers—some say the first of the old United States' army—General Albert Johnston, is opposed to General Fremont, who is not, strictly speaking, a soldier. _Price had halted at Osceola, where he was taking measures to fortify his posi tion, and partisan bands were moving on Fremont's flanks. The recapture of Lexington by the Fede ralists is scarcely a counterpoise to the reverse sustained by them at Pilot Knob. The " Union sentiment" in Missouri evidently requires a good deal of stirring up with bayonets, and demands an immense amount of protection—quite a hothouse plant in the way of warmth and selter. The hope of the North is in the fleet just now. How long General M'Clellan can resist pressure from his own side remains to be seen ; but the politicians are active, not seeing as well as he does, perhaps, that with another great repulse and rout the cause of the Unionists is indeed, in a had way. He wishes to PRICE. STAMPED ....sd. make sure no such mishap talkes place. Whoa two colonels are arrested in one week for insubordina tion, with suspicion of still graver charges, the General may be excused for want of confidence in all the material of which his force is composed. There have been cases of the inutility of earth works to check the retreat of an army, or to inspire the defenders with courage to meet an advanc ing and victorious enemy, but I cannot think Washington would be endangered on the South side even if another defeat were inflicted on the Federalists. The weather is not favourable for operations in the field. The mornings have been cloudy, and the nights rainy. The roads begin to give proyiiseof Balaklavian difficulties. But, just as the-piry depends on one bridge, the city depends on a line of single rail to Baltimore. The Long-bridge, „indeed, has been repaired, and there is some talk of laying down another line of rail ; but no one seems to care about the ordinary roads, and the ruts and mud hollows which may be encountered on any of the ordinary outlets even now would astonish a pair of Long-acre springs. What they will be with the aid of the rains and snows before us a Crimean experience may enable us to judge. POSTSCRIPT. Tuesday, 1 o'Clock.—lt is reported 'that General Banks is hotly engaged about 22 miles up the river, and I am going, if possible, to ascertain the truth of the report, which is in all probability correct. TIE' NOR7HERN STATES OF AMERICA (From the - Correspondent of the Times.) NEW YORK, OCT. 23. Government Sixes (which may be called the Consols of the United States) are selling to-day at 961. As this gives a profit to the taker of the new loan, and as it is about where the securities stood before Mr. Seward's circular, it is fair to assume that Wall-street, at least, does not see a serious in- ternational difficulty in the correspondence between Lord Lyons and Mr. Seward, which has since been p üblished, and which is assumed to explain the energetic circular of the Minister. It is unfortunate for the effect upon the public mind that such a cor respondence has taken place and been printed; for it tends to still further increase the ill-feeling that has been growing up in this country since May last. In the latter part of that month (if I may quote a short extract from one of my letters), I wrote that " the public mind is, however unjustly, becoming possessed of the idea that England sympathises with Southern slavery in its attack upon the insti tutions of this country. Under this apprehension, or misapprehension, the good and kindly feelings which three generations of peaceful and friendly relations created, are fast vanishing away." lam sorry to say there has been no day since then that I could retract or modify that statement. The current of feeling which was then setting so strongly has since but accelerated in its course, partly by the effect of a series of circumstances over which neither Government has control, and partly by the bitter articles appearing from time to time in the public press of this country, and reflected in tone 'and character on the other side of the Atlantic. An alienation produced by such causes is not likely to be decreased by a correspondence in which the Minister of a foreign Power lectures the Govern ment to which he is accredited. on a want of fidelity to its own laws. The public of New York, so far as I can judge, appears to approve the reply of Mr. Seward, but to attach no further importance to the question. It is believed here, and Wall-street practises upon the belief, that no foreign Govern ment will claim for its subjects who may be denizens of the United States exemption from the restrictions to which the citizens of the United States are sub jected; and this is, perhaps, the most sensible way of disposing of the particular question that raises the issue. The wide-spread feeling of dissatisfaction to which I have alluded finds expression in different ways, according to the tempers and tastes of the various ex ponents. In the " sensation" journals of New York it blazes forth in language of questionable English, but strong denunciation. In the more dignified pages of the magazine it clothes itself in the more guarded and regretful language which appears in the November number of the Atlantic monthly. I cannot better illustrate the views of the educated classes on this subject than by quoting a few words from the article entitled "Why has the North felt aggrieved at England ?" The 'writer says:— " Foremost among the grievances which we at the North may allege against our brethren across the water—foremost both in time and in the harm ful influence of its working—we may specify this fact—that the English press, with scarce an excep tion, made haste, in the very earliest stages of the Southern rebellion, to judge and announce the hope less partition of our Union as an event accomplished and irrevocable. The way in which this judgment was reached and pronounced, the time and circum stances of its utterance, and the foregone conclu sions which were drawn from it, gave to it a threatening and mischievous agency, only less pre judicial to our canoe, we verily believe, than would have been an open alliance between England and the enemies of the Republic." "If English opinion decided that our nationality must henceforth be divided, it seems also to imply that we ought also to divide according to terms dictated by the sece ders." "There was something alike humiliating and exasperating in this implied advice from her that we should tamely and unresistingly submit to a division of continent, bays, and rivers according to terms defiantly and insultingly proposed by those who had a joint ownership with ourselves. How would England receive such advice from us under like circumstances ?" "We protest against the verdict which finds expression in all sorts of ways, and with various aggravations, that, in attempting to rupture our Union, and to withdraw from it on their own terms at their own pleasure, the seceding States are but repeating the course of the old 13 colonies in declaring themselves independent, and surrendering their ties to the mother country." " It might seem evasive in us to suggest to our Eng lish critics that they should refresh their memories about the causes and the justification of our Revo lution by reading the pages of their own Burke. We are content to rest our case on his argument, simply affirming that on no one point will it cover the alleged parallelism of the Southern rebellion." These few extracts sufficiently show how this is regarded by the educated classes, and goes far to justify all I have ever said either of the depth or the prevalence of the feeling. It is out of such national antipathies as are germinating under our eyes, without an effort to stop them, that national discord grows. If unchecked they grow with each passing day, until they aro infused through the body politic, and at l en g th break out in violent action. What can there be more fatal to the cause of liberty and good g overnment in the a a l i n e d n a t tl h o e n I h n t u e l d d s s sp t a r t i n e s g , world than that suchtaanin up between Great B ri and that it should be permitted to expand through mutual misapprehension, until it has reached a stature to control the action of the Government ? The public confidence in the Government, as a m p e p a e s a u r r s ed to b b y e t u he n a subscriptions the Soon after Nationalthe ba n k L s os sig nified nified to the Secretary of the Treasury their inten tion to avail themselves of the option to take the Uecuud 50,000 ,000 cols. they offered at once to com plete their subscription by taking the third 50,000,000 dols, the option for which matures in December ; but the Secretary declined to allow them to take it before the maturity of the option. When the December subscription is made the Go vernment will have received from this source 150,000,000 dols. Congress authorised a loan of 250,000,000 dols. Of the remaining 100,000,000 dols, 50,000,000 dols. will be absorbed by the issue of demand Treasury-notes, which go into circulation as currency, and are likely to stay there, while the credit of the Government is as good as now. In form, size, execution, and general appearance they resemble the ordinary bank-note of the country; and, being redeemable at any time in gold gt the officeo: the AssistAnt-Treasurer, they supply a groat want TdhOleS. w ill s o ei a Eat.

Of the 100 ,000,000 dols. already taken by the associated bank 70,000,000 s dols. was taken on account of the banks of New York. The payments upon this up to Saturday last were 51,631,000 dols., of which 22,931,000 dols. had already been distributed in the Com. munity on individual subscriptions, and similar subscriptions were coming in at the rate of about 5,000,000 dols. a week. These figures, Which are worthy of careful attention, are the best evidences, not only of the wealth of this community but of its resolution, and of the estimate in which it holds its Government. It is worthy of remark also, that Mr. Chase has in every case made a successful negotiation under circumstances peculiarly fitted to insure disappointment.. His first call was just after the defeat at Bull's Run had demoralised the army, disgraced the country, and thrown a deep gloom upon the Federal cause. Yet it was successful. His second call followed the reverses in Missouri and apparent Confederate success in Kentucky. Notwithstanding this, the banks and the commu nity responded cheerfully, and would have been glad to do more if they could. An idea appears to prevail in some parts of Europe that the South is a unit, and the North divided in this controversy. I cannot say that the South is not a unit, though I have yet to see any evidence that it is. Certainly we have from that quarter no such substantial proof of unity as is shown in this united action of the banks of the North. While dealing in figures, let me give a few more, which show that this war, gigantic as it is, is not by any means ruinous to the country. And first, it is causing a great decrease in the imports of the country. The imports at this port since January, Dols. 1861, are For the like period last year they were 190,825,268 Showing a decrease of 87,988,596 While the imports are decreasing, a chain of cir cumstances, which happened just at this time, have raised the exports from this port. It will be under stood that since the war broke out nearly all the commerce of the country is done through the port of New York. The exports from this port since Jan. 1, Dols. 1861, have been For the like period last year they were 74,564,975 Showing an increase of ........ 27,007,722 Since the Ist of January last the imports of gold have amounted to 42,000,000 dole., and during the same period there has been a decrease in the export of gold, as compared with the corresponding period last year, of 39,799,000 dols. The result of these movements may be summed up as follows : Dols. Decrease in imports 88,000,000 Increase in exports Import of gold Decrease in export of gold .. Gain is the commerce of this port .. 197,000,090 To affect this we have the positive loss of a part of the floating capital employed in the trade of this town, and an unexampled prostration of the fixed capital invested in its houses and shops. The weekly Bank statement again shows a large decrease of loans, consequent upon the rapid ab sorption of the Government loan by the public. The figures change from day to day from these causes to such an extent that they cease to give informa tion of much value. The receiver of the Erie Rail way Company will advertise soon to pay the coupon of the fourth mortgage, which matured this month, on or about the Ist of next month, and there is little doubt but he will pay the December coupon of the fifth mortgage when, or soon after, it matures. We have as yet no reliable report from New Orleans. The reported Confederate successes both there and at Fort Pickens dwindle away with every day's mail, and it is not impossible that they may yet turn out to have been Federal successes. Re cruiting is still going on actively throughout this State. Nearly every day a regiment passes through New York on its way to Washington. The State authorities promise to have in the field before Christmas New York's full quota of an army of 500,000 men. The news from Kentucky is favourable. If the Government could at once put 20,000 more men there, from other States, to aid in holding the State, while the Kentuckians are arming themselves, there would be no doubt. I saw General Anderson to day, and was informed that he has no apprehensions for the State. The Federal forces, at the last ac counts, were within one day's march of Cumberland Gap, and the Confederates were occupying less than a sixth of the State; with little prospect of increasing their territory. He regards the campaign in Western Virginia as closed for the season, by reason of the severity of the weather that has set in there. I had hoped, before closing this letter, to be able to give some information as to the offensive move ment of the Federal forces on the Potomac. The telegraph is in the control of the military authori ties, and they have not yet made public any details. We know, however, that the Potomac has been crossed by Gen. Stone's column after a sharp fight, in which Senator Baker, of Oregon, was killed, end that General Banks' column was in position to cross. The next packet will probably carry out much more important news. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALLS'—YEsTERDAY. The earlypart of the afternoon was devoted to the settling of the Newmarket accounts. " Parting " was the order of the afternoon, and speculation was scarcely thought of. No great winners were reported, the bookmakers generally having had a very " bad week." The Worcester Races were scarcely mentioned, and the few books opened on the Liverpool Cup seemed to be in a somewhat confused con dition. All sorts of prices were betted against all sorts of horses, but the three below quoted were pretty firm. A great deal of betting took place on the Derby, and Buck - stone, The Marquis, and Old Calabar were in demand at the prices mentioned below : LIVERPOOL MP. 10 to 1 agat Lady Ripon (taken) 100 to 8 agst Gabrielle d'Estrees (taken) 100 to 7 agst Russley (taken) THEn ckto DE RBY, (taken) to 1 agst The Marquise (taken and offered) 13 to 1 agst Old Calabar (taken) s 25 to 1 agst Wingr ave ( taken ) 25 to 1 apt Caterer (taken) 30 to 1 agst Ace of Clubs (taken) 33 to 1 agst Spite (taken) 40 to 1 agst Malek (taken) ne(en 11 to 1 agst B 1862. 40 to 1 agst Nottingham (taken) 40 to 1 agst Typee colt (taken) 1000 to 15 agst Lord Burleigh (taken) 1000 to 15 agat Hubert (taken) 1000 to 10 agst Berkeley (taken) BETTING AT MANCHESTER—YESTERDAY. For the Worcester Handicap Doefoot was at one time in stalled favourite, and was freely supported at 5 to 1, which price was afterwards taken about Joey Jones, the former animal receding to 6to 1. Dorking was backed at Bto 1; and towards the close, without being supported in this mar ket, 6to 1 was the highest offer against Mayfield. For the Liverpool event several horses were supported, Lady Ripon having the call of anything, but we saw no less than 12 to 1 booked against her.—Closing prices : WORCESTER AUTUMN HANDICAP. sto 1 agst Joey Jones (taken) 6 to 1 agst Doefoot (taken) 6 to 1 agat Mayfield (offered) Bto 1 agst Dorking (taken) THE NURSERY PLATE. sto 2 agst Mayflower (offered) THE LIVERPOOL CUP. 12 to 1 agst Lady R i pon (taken) Si r William (offe red) 14 to 1 agst M.
