TIMES.—In course of time we may possibly arrive at something like general principles upon which we may all agree to judge the spontaneous and unex pected acts of our army and navy on the other side of the world, Such acts there must inevitably be, so long as we retain the wide and spreading dominion of commerce and arms which we inherit from our fathers. Even with the electric telegraph it is evi dent that a British Admiral in the Japanese or Australian seas will frequently have to act on his own responsibility, and determine the precise mo ment when a tedious negotiation is to result in the last appeal. We only hear when the deed has been done and is a matter of history. Under suoh circumstances there is a great and very natural temptation to take a sentimental view of the affair, and to blow either the trumpet of triumph and praise, or the hardly less sonorous, though not equally musical note of the philanthropic or saintly objector. Everybody would read with pleasure Lord Clarence Paget's very handsome professional advocacy of Admiral Kuper. His Lordship is a good fellow, and so, no doubt, is the Admiral, and it would be very shabby if they did not stand by one another. The Admiral, says Lord Clarence, went to Kago sima on an errand of mercy and peace ; while dis charging it as quietly and civilly as he could, the affair was precipitated by the violence of the Daimio, and when the crews rose from dinner to point their guns on the batteries blazing upon them, the sudden storm and swell of the sea sent the shot and shell flying in all directions among the rows of bamboo huts before which the Daimio had imprudently built his forts. So far as the Admiral was concerned, the co'. lision was inevitable, and met with the utmost consi deration. All this sounds very proper, and no doubt it is the decision which the British public will have to accept. For our part, we feel that we have to deal with such an operation as a whole, and that cer tainly at the distance of many weeks and twelve thousand miles we must be content to leave the smaller incidents to the critics who deal with trifles. If we send out the beat men we can for the purpose, and find them acting to the best of their ability, we are bound to continue our confidence in them till we see the plainest ground for withdrawing it. We must pronounce a favourable judgment, if only because we have no means of pronouncing unfavourably, and are aware that the situation is always one of the greatest difficulty. In this case, a murder having been committed, the murderers having been pro tected, the protector having defied both us and his own Government, his Sovereign having been at last reluctantly obliged to confess his inability to enforce the law, and every stage of negotiation having been gone through, an armed expedition is sent to ob tain satisfaction. The squadron finds immense pre parations made to defeat it, the natural difficulties considerable, and these difficulties suddenly aggra vated by a storm. The question really was whether the squadron should accomplish its task as well as it could, or retreat if it could without striking a blow, leaving the rebellious harbourer of the murderers to proclaim a victory, to double his preparations, and wait for more chances in his favour. The Admiral took possession of the steamships prepared against us, and after that had no alternative but to proceed vigorously by the rules of war in such cases. Being attacked, he had to defend himself, and did no more than destroy his prizes and silence the hostile bat teries—if, indeed, he did not silence them entirely, for that is denied by the enemy. It seems to us frivolous to divide such a work into so many sue. cessive stages and particular incidents for the pur pose of showing either that the work was done as well as possible or not so well. No course of action in the world will stand that test. Nobody charged with a difficult responsibility ought to be required to defend every particular step in a complicated operation, for in a succession of difficulties it is in human to expect that every difficulty has been met with infallible wisdom. Jurisprudence, legislation, and:government have all their difficulties and draw backs, even though they have days, weeks, years, generations at their command,—even though men After may sleep ove r t h em, take them up an d l a y them down and t a k e t h em up again, li ve through sons. them them, and hand a, ll them who o d a o n w e n ay to sons and sons' that these affairs of civil life a re d one with perfect wisdom an d en tire success We cann o t app l y a more stringent criticism to the actions of men who , in an entirely new situa tion at the other en d o f the world, find t h emse lves pitted for life and death with unknown swarms of a strange enemy, and have to negotiate, to fight, to conquer, to perish, or to fly, all in the space of two or three hours. A minute or two is all the time which the exigency will allow for the most momentous deliberation, and it is on a rising sea, in blinding ' rain and wind, and under a shower of missiles, ; the commander of the little squadron has to make deci sions which Mr. Cobden pulls to pieces over a lib rary table, and others undertake to prove the perfection of wisdom, if not matter of positive congra tulation. The truth is we have only just arrived at the substance of this shadowy realm which has so long mocked all the efforts of curiosity and commerce. Our treaty with the supposed Central Government turns out to be worth very little, that Government being incompetent and illusory. Its engagements have only led to a further collision with the real heart and core of the Empire, the feudal chiefs who appear to possess the country with an overgrown pomp and an utter selfishness worthy of an irrespon sible and rebellious aristocracy. The Central Govern ment by Tycoons, of which we have heard so much from our childhood, turns out a political fiction for the apparent responsibility of duties which the real possessors of the country only discharge as they overnme W nt e and er , please. What we h a d b roug ht t o t erms p rev ious to this affair is as much a sh am as th e p a p er wa ll s of Chinese warfare. are pnoowwfa. No face to face withwonder h t the a reality of g t the collision has bee n serious, ) But we ay and must protest against the collision b eing; tr ea t ed as a mere accident, as an unfortunat e re sult of personal indis cretion, national arroga nce, and professional over zeal. It was cer t a i n to come some time or othe r , as certain as we are to reach th e te rra firma of a country by sailing over the shoals that accumulate before its harbours. In the case of Japan there always was, and still is, the di sposition and to insult us, it being right ly to exclude inferred that our presence will be dangerous to the pret • ensions of men who stand by brut e p ower and act acco rd i ngly.

Their fears th the are not without reason, but it is too late to exclude us They must now be held to the treaty ma d e in their * behalf for the admission of the rest of manki • nd to the ordinary privileges of humanity. POST.—Whatever may be the decision that Aus tria and Prussia may take with reference to the perso nal claims of Prince Frederic of A ug p usten bug, it cannot be too strongly pointed out that they form but one out of many elements of which the complex Holstein question is composed. On this head there appears to be a remarkable confusion in the public mind. There was a Holstein question before the claims of Prince Frederic were put for ward, and there still would be a Holstein question if his pretensions were to be now universally repu diated. Peace or war between Germany and Den mark depends, therefore, not so much on any deci sion which the two great German Powers may take with reference to this pretender to the throne of the three Duchies, but on the spirit of moderation or violence which utuy 'nark tleir counsels on the whole question. For example, Austria and Prussia being already committed to the Treaty of 1852, it would be extremely difficult, at the least, for those Powers to commence hostilities with Denmark on the avowed ground of supporting the House of Augustenburg ; although the intelli gence of our correspondent at Paris, as will be seen in another column, is that they have actually adopted the pretensions of Prince Frederic. But there would still remain the question of the alleged infraction of her engagements by Denmark in Hol stein and Lauenburg ; and the new question started only a week ago, of the incorporation of Schleswig . into the Danish monarchy, by virtue of the common constitution granted on the 18th inst. to Denmark and Schleswig. It is difficult to suppose that a Federal invasion, to which Austria and Prussia ' should be parties, would openly bear the character of an act designed to violate the Treaty of 1852; but it is not so difficult to entertain the contingency of an invasion, under a specious as sumption of Federal prerogative, which should at last have the result of enforcing the claims of the present pretender or some other play thing in the hands of the Frankfort Diet. Thus we learn that the Courts of Vienna and Berlin have already delivered a protest to this Federal body against the common constitution just granted to Denmark and Schleswig. This act of Christian IX. they resent as a violation of German rights, inasmuch as they claim Schleswig as an tap panage of Holstein, and disavow its constitutional connection with Denmark. Independently, more over, of this new grievance, there were, as we all know, anterior grounds of complaint on which a Federal execution in Holstein, and not improbably an invasion of Schleswig also, was designed before the recent death of Frederic VII. If, therefore, the Germans now resolv e t o invade Denmark in earnest, it is with them ra th er a case of an embarrass de rzehesse as to which pretext they shall adopt, than one in which they are absolutely driven upon an outward adoption of that capat mortuuna the Prince of Augustenburg. King Christian himself, although acting with rectitude and boldness, appears to have felt the full force of the danger he was incurring at the hands of G ermany i n a dopting the new consti tution ; and, whatever may be the ultimate accep tance or rejection of the claims of Prince Frederic, it is already apparent that Austria and Prussia per ceive that this new grievance affords them the ad vantage of a pretext on which they have in no way committed themselves. Meanwhile, there is too much reason to apprehend that the temper of the a G d e m r9a m a i n s t a r a n t d iv il e o r l i s g t o e u in r of p weophliec,whill urge them to acts of vi . oience, unl ess thi s movement is repressed by an in Germany at least, there is at present no indication ; but, unfortunately, altogether the reverse. In Holstein there is already a civil mutiny, Nearly all the officials have de clared against King Christian ; and the deputies, dislodged from their treasonable meeting at Kiel, have already gone to breathe a freer air at Frank fort. On the German side of the frontier a branch of the National Verein has already declared the necessity of dethroning the Danish Monarch in the three Duchies claimed by the Prince of Augus tenburg ; and the number of German Grand Dukes who are thronging to his standard is in creasing. Public meetings are everywhere foment ing this agitation; and it bids fair to become a serious question with the German Sovereigns whether they will not be incurring greater danger from their own subjects in restraining themselves from an invasion than from the foreign Powers who might present themselvea as the allies of Den mark. There appears to be little doubt that King Christian will be obliged to maintain his rights against the Holsteiners by vigorous measures, as well as against the Germans. Impelled by revolu tionary influences from the left bank of the Elbe, the Holsteiners appear as though nothing but mili tary force would restrain them from open rebellion. If we consider what the force of the enthusiasm in behalf of an invasion of the Danish dominions already is throughout Germany, we may well ima gine how it will be intensified by the not improbable spectacle of an active conflict between the King of Denmark and his Holstein subjects. If the German Governments shall then pretend that they are led on by the force of the public will to actual warfare, that plea, far from being entertained as any defence of the fatal course they may then have assumed, will reflect upon them the severest moral censure for having failed to restrain the enthusiasm of the public while it was yet possible to do so. But whether Austria and Prussia shall openly adopt the pretensions of the Prince of Augustenburg, or whether they shall fall back upon other pretexts for an invasion of lioluteio—which, whether it ex tend to Schleswig or not, can now be nothing less than a war with Denmark both at sea and by land —they may be certain that the Western Powers will stand by the Convention of 1852, and they will feel equally bound in honour and by policy to defend Denmark in the trying situation in which she will then be placed. It is therefore for the Germans to bear in mind that the danger as well as the responsibility, of the situation rests with them selves rather than with the Danes. TEE SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN QUESTION.

Ia all these acts all the rights and privileges were reserved to the country as well as the male succession founded on the ancient German right. At present, it is true, the male line reigns in Denmark in virtue of the protocol of Lon don; but if this document did not exist the throne would have been inherited by the female line, a line which could not succeed in Lauenburg, because in a ll cases the rights of more ancient branches, and especially those of the Augustenburg branch, should be asserted." New Zealand Despatches. (From the Gazette of last night,) WAR-OFFICE, Nov. 2L The Secretary of State for War has received despatches from Lieutenant-General Cameron, C. 8., commanding the troops in New Zealand, of which the following are copies:— Head -quarters, Queen's Redoubt, Aug. 31, 1863. I vry Lord,—l have the honour to report that I have not been able to undertake any operation of importance since the date of my last despatch. H av ing received intelligence that a body of in surgents had collected at the villages of Paparos an d Pdparata, about 14 miles to the east of our position on the Koheroa, I marched a force of about 700 men there on the night of the let August, with the intention of surp ris ing them ; but on reaching the villages we found them d eser t e d, th e na ti ves h av i ng retired into the dense bush behind them, which is of such vast extent that it would have been useless to have followed them into it. I herewith inclose a report which I made of this movement to his Excellency Sir George Grey. On the 14th August I advanced the head-quarters of the 14th Regiment from our first position on the Koheroa to one about four miles up the Waikato, close to the Whangamarino, a small tributary of the former river. About two miles higher up the Waikato, and on the same bank, at a place called Meri-meri, the Waikato tribes a nd their allies ar e assembled in co nsiderable numbers , un d e r William Thompson, one l of their they have forti fied with much skill and care. This position is one of great natural strength, as a force attacking it by land must advance al ong a o narro w strip of scrub and bush, until it reaches the f o ot of the position; or , if the attack be made by es n principal chiefs, and have po s t e d them selves v e height commanding the ri ver , w hi c h water, the force must be landed ont of boats imme diately under the fire of several lines of rifle pits. There is no point on the bank of the river from which the position can be shelled with effect. I consider it would not be prudent to attack under these disadvantages without the aid of artil lery, and I have therefore ordered four cargo boats to be fitted to carry an Armstrong gun in each ; and I intend to defer the attack until they are ready. when I hope the iron steamer will also have arrived from Sydney. Working parties of civilians and soldiers have been employed for some time past, at the expense of the Colonial Government, in clearing the bush on each side of our line of communication, in order that our convoys may pass with greater safety. When finished I hope to reduce the strength of the escorts and of the posts along the road, which entail very severe duties upon the troops, and diminish the force available for active operations. On the 26th inst. one of these working parties which, contrary to orders, had no covering party for its protection, was surprised by a large body of natives, and lost two Men killed and 21 stand of arms, five of which were afterwards found in the bush. The report of this occurrence, which I for warded to his Excellency Sir George Grey, is enclosed.

Head-quarters, Queen's Redoubt, Aug. 3, 1863. Sir,—l have the honour to inform your excel lency that on the night of the Ist inst. I left the Queen's Redoubt with a force of 700 men, including a party of seamen and marines of her Majesty's steamer Harrier, for the purpose of reconnoitring the villages of Paparoa and Paparata, where I had reason to believe that a large body of rebels had collected; Captain Sullivan, commanding her Ma jesty's ship Harrier, accompanied the force. After a fatiguing night march, the last mile of which was through very high and thick scrub, we reached Paparoa at daybreak, and found it entirely deserted, though it had evidently been recently oc cupied, and I have little doubt that the natives had received some notice of our movements. After searching this village, we proceeded.9lo.og, a bush track, which I was afterwards informed l e d to Hanrake, having missed the track to Some natives, concealed so far within the bush opened fire on our right as to be perfectly invisible, the 12th the leading files, and wounded a soldier of fire for some time, Regiment.

I ordered my men to face about and charge them. Wo drove them down a gully towards the swamp into the bush on the right of Pokeno village. I followed them for about half a mile along the track towards Paparoa. Hearing yells in the direction of the village, I returned along the track to the open ground where I was first fired on. On arriving there I was received with a volley from the enemy, who were extended across the whole of the clearing, then between me and the village, and also from the bush on the right. I cannot too highly praise the steady conduct of themenat this moment. The enemy appearing in great force, I ordered the men to remain in skirmishing order, and to keep a steady fire, taking advantage of any cover the ground afforded. From the commotion I occasionally perceived, I concluded that our fire was effectual, and that the Maories were removing their wounded.

I immediately reinforced the skirmishers, who ad vanced, driving the Maories from the clearing, and out of the village into the bush. After scouring the bash on the right of the village, the enemy h av ing made their retreat in that direction, and deeming that further pursuit was useless, I re turned to the Queen's Redoubt: In the meantime the force under my command had been augmented by the arrival of the escort under the command of Captain Noblett, 2d Battalion, 18th Regiment.
