Notwithstanding that several new narine Insurance Com panies have been established within the last few years, it is generally recognised that the means of effecting m mite in surances are not sufficient to meet the increasing expansion of trade, insurers being now driven to effect their insurances in remote towns in the provinces, in Ireland and Scotland, and, on the Continents of Europe and America. The actual pric,, of shares in the existing Marine Insur ance Companies demonstrate clearly that the business is highly remunerative. Of th new Companies one only has been established in Liverpool, and it has already secured a very large and lucra tive business. More than half the exports and imports of the kingdom pass through the port of Liverpool, and there is no doubt, therefore, that another Company having its Chief Offices in London and Liverpool will meet with ample support. tinder these circumstances the British and Foreign Marine Insurance Company has been established. The business of the Company will be c infined to the issu ing of policies on freight and goods only, and it is expressly provided, as a fundamental element in the constitution of this Company, that no insurance shall be effected on the ships themselves. The principle of limited liability, as applicable to insurance companies, came into operation during the month of Novem ber List. The Directors, observing that in banking and other important commercial enterprises limited liability has met with universal favour, have adopted it as an unalterable principle in the present undertaking. The Directors, therefore, express the greatest confidence in the success of this Company. Such provision has been made by the Directors for the pre liminary expenses as will secure the Company against pay ing any promotion money. A copy of the articles of association lies at the offices of the Company for inspection. The prospectus and forms of applications for shares may be Obtained of the brokers of the ompany. Application for shares to be addressed to the Directors ; but no application Will be considered unless a payment has been made to the bankers of the C ompany of el per share, on the number of tient shares applied for.

The British and American Exchange Banking Corporation Limited is formed for the purpose chiefly of dealin,! in Ex changes, a business which, excepting* with British' posses- Slone, has hitherto been mainly in the hands of private firms; and it is well known that with many countries such banking facilities have not been afforded to merchants and others as Thisastly extended commerce of the present day demands. is particularly the case in the trade between England and America, and it is ',rot osed that this Corporation shall commenee its in New Yo r k o perations by the e s t a bli s h ment of an agency The profitable nature of exchange business is well known, especially that with the A profit is at present merican States, and altho ug h th e ordinary years, there seaterg than can be calculated up on i n generally much larger margin than is usually found remunerative by bankers. The purchase and sale on commission of securities in New 'York and London, the dealings in which amount annually to many millions sterling, and the remittances of interest and dividends, will afford other sources of profit. The practice now become very general of attaching, bills of lading to bills of exchange as collateral security, renders ex change operations more than usually safe, whilst the ship ment of gold involves scarcely any risk whatever. The shipments of produce and specie from New York alone foerlingr the past year have amounted to nearly forty millions st, and the average of several years has not been Much less. Th ere is thus a very extended field for the ope rations of the Corporation, and the facilitie s w hi c h i t w i ll afford, both i n t hi s country and America, must tend to pro mote, and still further to extend, the commercial and mone tary transactions between the two countries. The same remarks are applicable to other places in which the establishment of agencies is contemplated. A large business is also anticipated betwixt America and the ports in India and China, which will be carried out in co operation with the Oriental Bank Corporation. The success of Joint-stock Banks dealing in Exchange is evidenced by the present quotations of the shares of the un dermentioned companies ; and it is somewhat remarkable that the joint-stock principle has not yet been adopted in the American trade, though presenting a wider field for its profit able operation than any otherpart of the world.

The application of the joint-stock principle to Ranking and Exchanges, under the control and general management of boards of di ectors in London, has proved so eminently suc cessful in the British colonies and dependencies, more parti cularly in the East and West Indies, that it is deemed xpe client to intro uce that system into the Continent of Europe, with which our commercill intercourse is now so great as to demand additional facilities and safety in support of our mu tual monetary transactions. Banking on the Engdsh system, and with English capital, has already been applied with success to foreign countries in the ins , ances of t„e atoman Bank as regards Turkey. and the Bank of Egypt in Egypt, both conducted under Royal Charters of Incorporation. Other companies have more re cently been established, with similar objects, under the Limited Liability Act. The Directors prpose to take powers to apply for a special Charter for this Bank. In the limits of a prospectus it is impossible tc enter into full details, but official statistics are available to show the increase in the totals of our imports and exports of merchan di•e with. the principal countries of Central Europe, between the years 185+ and 1861, which may b , briefly given thus : With France, from 17 to 35 millions ; with Germany, from 14 to 19 millions ; with Holland, from 13 to 18 millions ; with Italy, from 5 to 9 millions; and with Spain, from 5 to 8 mil lions sterling. Arrangements are matured to secure the services of gentle men of large experience to conduct the Foreign Department of the business. The Bank, in addition to ordinary banking operations, will conduct all the business of Exchange Agents. It will Import and Export Gold and Silver. Purchase approved Bills of Exchange, Coupons, Notes, &c. Undertake Foreign Financial Agencies. Grant Drafts on its various Agencies, and issue Circular Notes. Buy and Sell Foreign Stocks and Shares on Commission. Applications for Shares must be made in the annexed form, accompanied by a deposit of £1 per share. If no ,Hot ment be made to the applicant, the depo , it will be returned without deduction ; and if a less number be allotted thaii is applied for the surplus will be placed towards the payment on allotment. Prospectuses and Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained al the Temporary Offices, 90, Cannon-street, E.C., and from the Brokers of the Company. K% -j e _ .. . ..

War has widened and embittered them to an extent which the North is slow to appreciate, but which in the South approaches to fanaticism, and renders the conquest of the country alike a physical and a moral impossibility. The Northern people are not, however, quite so obstinate as they were six months ago. The events of this fast-fading year have taught them to re flect on the lust of empire and the penalties attached to it. When they sum up what has been done and what has been left undone within the twelvemonth they do not, and cannot, shut their eyes and their minds against the unpleasant truth that the pros pects of the war and the situation of the country at the close of 1862 contrast unfavourably with the state of affairs at its commencement. The restora tion of the Union is further off than ever. Large armies have been raised, an immense debt has been incurred, great battles have been fought, a stupen dous amount of human life has been sacrificed, the whole framework of the law and constitution has been stretched and shaken and dislocated ; the germs of a social convulsion have been introduced into the body politic, and a national bankruptcy has been rendered sooner or later inevitable by the financial operations of the Government,---and all this has been done and suffered without the slightest real result in subduing the spirit or breaking the energies of the Southern people, or achieving for the North such a victory as might flatter its pride and appeal to its magnanimity to allow its wayward sisters to depart without further bloodshed. The South, on the other hand, has endured the greatest privations, suffered the severest hardships, been cruelly isolated from the commerce of the world and all the luxuries and necessities of life that fol low in its wake, has resorted to an inexorable con scription,' has incurred a fearful debt, and poured out the blood of its richest and proudest sons with more reckless profusion than the North has shown in pouring out that of its penniless foreign merce naries: But it has done none of these things in vain. It has had the great advantage of a united people, and of the ablest generals whom the age has produced. It has had the incentives of hate and patriotism to strengthen the arms and inflame the hearts of its soldiers and people. It has carried on at fearful odds, against a powerful antagonist, a struggle which has made it the admiration of the world, and forced even the professed philanthropists and humanitarians of Europe to forget the blot of slavery on its escocheon, and to accept its cause as the representative of the hallowed right of self-government, combating the dictatorial insolence of an aggressive minority. The enormous sacrifices of the South have been fruitful, while those of the North have been barren. Every day that passes strengthens the cause of the one and weakens that of the other, and, worst of all for the North, facts not to be denied or explained away show that the longer the war lasts the greater the corruption, the venality, the faintheartedness, and the treason the Federal Government has to contend against among its own people, and the greater the present and prospective loss of Northern liberty. Considered under any possible aspect the actual situation of the Federal Government, army and finance, is not encouraging to the warmest hearted patriot. A single Confederate steamer, the Alabama, defies the whole naval power of a nation that has 300 war ships afloat upon the rivers and seas. The army in the South-West is in a position of extreme danger. Generals Rosencranz and Grant are both checkmated by the superior strategy if not by the superior force of the Confederates. The black flag is raised by the Southern President, and Mr. Lin coln is preparing a proclamation that will certainly provoke a servile war if the Southern slaves are not warmly attached to their masters, or held down by so irresistible a grip as to render the slightest at tempt at insurrection on their part the signal of a general massacre of their race. Mr. Chase cannot carry on the war without paper, he cannot print his paper fast enough to meet the demands upon the Government, and gold, the traitor, obstinately per - sists in valuing itself at 33 per cent. more than the promises to pay of the liovernment of one of the richest and most enterprising people in the world. "Washington is in more imminent danger of capture than ever Richmond has been at any period during the war, and the Confederate cavalry make success ful irruptions within 12 miles of the capital. It is not surprising under such circumstances the idea of peace shou'd arise in minds that but a little time ago repelled it, and that mediation, provided it be not offered by England alone and unaided, should be tacitly believed by thousands of sensible men to be the best solution of a congeries of difficulties and evils that might be otherwise insoluble within the experience of the existing generation. The President's Proclamation on Slavery will be published the day after tomorrow. All hope that he will abstain from a measure that is calculated to provoke an insurrection of the negroes has been abandoned. He will decree freedom to the slaves of " rebels," and will support slavery as a system in " loyal States" until such States shall themselves see fit to abolish it. He will not be supported by the public opinion of the North and West in any such "bull' against a planet or comet that revolves in the far off spaces that his armies cannot penetrate. Even New England will declare against him for not going far enough ; while the Democratic party in all the States, who are proved to form the great majority of the people, have already declared against him for going too far, and will speedily take action on the premises, with a view of calling a National Convention to consider a question which it is beyond the power of Mr. Lincoln or any other President to decide. How the Alabama got out of Fort de France, Martinique. (Translated for the New York Herald from the Diaro do Santiago de Cuba,.Dee.lo.) The French mail steamer Tampico, from Fort de France, Martinique, sailed just three days after the Alabama—the famous champion of the South—had left the harbour, humbugging the San Jacinto, which is cruising after her. The incidents of this deception are curious enough, and we take them from one of the passengers for this port, in which we place implicit reliance. The French authorities had to keep the excessive zeal of the Yankee sailors within bounds, as they thought themselves sure of this prize, which has given them so much trouble and annoyance. The commanders of both steamers went on shore at Martinique, and in one of their frequent meet ings the captain of the Alabama said to the com mander of the San Jacinto : " I have no more than 160 men and 12 guns. You have 500 of the former and 39 of the latter. 1 will promise you not to use our guns; I will attack you by boarding, and take and destroy your vessel." The captain of the San Jacinto did not wish to accept this challenge, observing that any wa y he had the Alabama secure. The captain of the Ala bama, without taking any notice of this bravado, appeared to be occupied in the construction of a kind r of raft out of l arge b un dl es o f dried grass and tar in view of th e F e d era l sa il o rs. His first theideala no st doubt was to provoke an attack ; but a nights of his st a y were very dark, the captain of efthe Alabama, whose vessel is a scr ew ntearne goes 16 miles an hour, erected some false topmasts o f bamboo canes and cocoanut tops, hoisted his lights to make the deception more complete, and under a full head of steam passed out of port by the side of the San Jacinto.

(From the times' Special CArrespondent.) NEW YORK, DEc. 30. The fierce proclamation of the Southern President has not surprised any one. Something of the kind was anticipated before the Ist of January, to warn President Lincoln of the dangers of retaliation, in case he should persist in exciting a servile war in the Cotton States. It is not likely, however, to have much, if any, effect on the course of Northern policy. Gen. Butler, who is the especial object of the wrath of Mr. Jefferson Davis, had been recalled six weeks before the 23d inst., the date of the issue of the document, and the fact must have been known in Richmond by the 20th. To order Gen. Butler to be hanged if captured, to declare his subordinate officers to be felons, not soldiers, and to reserve them for the felon's doom should they fall into the hands of the Confederate authorities, is as useless, under the circumstances, as Mr. Lincoln's " bull against the comet." General Butler is by this time safe at Washington, or speedily will be, and, hav ing had no command since the 15th inst., when he formally took leave of his army, he had no subor dinate at the time when Mr. Davis fulminated his decree against his neck and theirs. The only re sult of the proclamation on the penal fate of the ex tyrant of Louisiana will be to goad Mr. Lincoln to appoint him to high office; perhaps to a command in the field, but more probably to Mr. Stanton's seat it", the Cabinet. General Butler's portrait as painted by himself contrasts amusingly with his portrait as painted by Mr. Jefferson Davis. In his farewell address to the army he recapitulates his own services in thanking the troops for theirs. He restored law, order, quiet, and peace to a city filled with the bravos of all nations, where for a score of years, during the profoundest peace, human life was scarcely safe at noonday. He illustrated with his army the best traits of the American soldier, and encuained the admiration of those who came to scoff. Landing with only 76 dollars in the military c est, he gave his country's tr easury nearly half a mi lion of dollars, and supplied th e wants of the troops at la so economical a rate that his expedition cost the Government less by four-fifths than any other it had sent out. He fed the starving poor, and the wives and children of his enemies, and by so doing converted his enemies into friends. By his practi cal philanthropy he won the confidence of the slaves, who hailed him as their deliverer, and aided him as willing servants and faithful labourers.

J W ov e e's s , th see the the yaw e eye like Mars't o t h reaten and com rrnioann.d,"Naonrd is th allt e picture altogether untrue, for General Butler, whatever his ungallantry and ra pacity may have been, was unquestionably an en lightened sanitary reformer, and thoroughly under stood his business. But the companion picture, the Satyr to the Hyperion, will be studied by all who really desire to know what sort of a man was Ben jamin Franklin Butler, pro-Consul of New Orleans. Mr. Jefferson Davis has drawn it in broad, vigo rous outlines, that all the world can recognise. For hanging Mumford for hauling down the flag of the Federal Government three days before Butler came into military occupation of the city he is painted as "a cold-blooded and deliberate murderer," and as an " outlaw and common enemy of mankind." He is one who committed outrages and atrocities not permitted by the rules of international law, Or the usages of civilised warfare. He imprisoned peace ful and aged citizens, unresisting captives and non- combatants, in dungeons and fortresses with chains attached to their limbs, and treated the selling of medicines to sick and wounded soldiers as a crime worthy of savage and degrading punishment. He encouraged his brutal soldiers to insul t and outrage ladies ; he tore helpless and inoffensive women from their homes, and subjected them to solitary confinement in fortresses and pri sons, and fed them upon loathsome rations which had been condemned as unfit for the use of the Federal soldiery. He sought and invented pretexts for plundering the inhabitants of a captured city and forced them to elect between confiscation of all their property and consequent starvation, or take an oath against their conscience to bear allegiance to the invader of their country. He drove the slaves from their plantations in the neighbourhood of New Orleans, unless their owners would consent to share their crops with him, his brother Andrew I. Butler, and other officers; and by his act of sequestration west of the Mississippi he subjected a quarter of a million of human beings of all ages, sexes, and con ditions to starvati o n. A n d, finally, he incited th e slaves to insurrection against their masters by every license and encouragement, and actually armed numbers of them to engage in servile war—a war far exceeding in its horrors the most merciless atrocities of savages. This portrait also is neither untrue nor unlike, and will probably go down to posterity as that by which General Butler will be most easily recognised in that historical picture gal lery where the Neros, the Caligulas, and the Alvas, as well as the Couthons, the Marats, and the Fou quier Tinvilles have already found a place. History, like Madame Tussaud, has its " Chamber of Hor rors," and in that niche posterity when it looks for Benjamin F. Butler will be certain to find him. It is likely that the Federal Government will pay no attention to the charges which Mr. Davis brings against will General B u tl er , an d t h a t th e G enera l him selftreat them with silence if not with indiffe• rence. But in that great and supreme court of Public Opinion—that court the jurisdiction of which embraces the civilised world, the indictment, of which the counts aro mercilessly stated by the Southern President, will be tried and decided. If the whole charge be not sustained, much of it will. General Butler need not expect, and certainly will not obtain, the love even of his own Puritanical New England, but he will certainly extort its admi ration for the possession and display of qualities which would have re;idered him the model Pasha of a model Sultan. The proclamation, or address, of General Banks on assuming the command vacated by General Butler is much approved as a specimen of what may hereafter be expected of one who knows how to combine in a higher degree than his predecessor the suaviter in modo with the fortiter in re. The general, who is known to have accepted this com mand with reluctance, and only from an imperative sense of duty, will have a difficult task to perform. Being one of the honestest, if not the ablest, men whom the war has produced, every possible allow ance will be made for him, should he not by his first achievements come up to the popular expecta• tions. General Banks has no enemies ; and the only regret among his friend s is that he should have been sent to a place where the chances of success are so greatly against him, lie is strongly in favour of the unity of the Republic for geographical reasons, and writes in this sense in his proclama tion. All that can be said in reply to a train of argument which facts may overthrow, if other logic do not, is that the very same arguments drawn from geography might be adduced for the unity of Europe under one Government, if its map were at this moment, like the map of North America, at the arbitrament of the sword. All such considerations arc idle. The sword will decide in the New World, as it long ago decided in the 041, and political geo graphy will assume its own lines as circumstances may dictate. There is a social as well as a physical geography of which General Banks takes no account, and social g eograp h y h as a lready • declared that the South and the North are different peoples, who neither think nor act with its L'EU re ka Gladiatorial Inchiceith.

The staff of the great hospitals is utterly insufficient to allow of their performing themselves the work allotted to them. . . . We discover every now and then a con scientious physician, whe tries to do his work. We once calculated this work up in a particular instance. At half past six in the evening the Esculapian bee was patting on his overcoat to return home; he had taken his seat in a wooden-bottomed chair at 1 p.m. For five and a half hours he had sat there, ringing his bell, calling out " Come in," examining his patients, and writing prescriptions, without a break. In the course of that period he had counted 4,480 strokes of the heart, liste ,ed t ) 86 chests, looked at 190 tongues, asked 1,120 questions, written 336 separate recipes, 11 certificates for clubs, 3 certificates of deaths, and brief notes in the hospital books of 29 new patients, giving their age, sex, occupation, duration of illness, resi dence, and disease. Altogether he had given advice gratis to 224 people, and remarked that he fell short of his usual wear'ed number. Shall we describe the man at the end of his day's work? He was so pale that he might have played Ghost that at t'hherscl to Hamlet in broad sunlight.

Captain Sartori wrote to the mayor, telling him it was very important the letter should be despatched at once, and he his no , doubt the consul got the paper by 12 o'clock tlif- same day. Neither the pilot or the mayor were informed of the contents of the letter, or of the cc currences here detailed. If the consul is not afraid of taking responsibilities, as he should not be, in such important matters, he chartered a vesspl, and a steam one, if possible, to take the news to Santiago de Cuba, a short distance from which there is a telegraph to Havannqn, and where there may have been some United Staten;' war-steamers. All the officers and passengers IT. have talked with say that Lieut. Low acted in they most gentlemanly, and even courteous manner, Capt. .Tones says the same of Capt. Semmes. • In fae all the Ariel's folks appear to have been perketl fascinated and enchanted by Lieut. Low. He soltheei the ladiee, patted the children on the head, kissed the ugliest-looking as well as the prettiest babies, and made himself generally agreeable. Ho told Capt. Sartori he did only his duty in molesting the Ariel, and remarked, " You, Captain Sartori, would do the same thing were your country treated so out rageously as mine has been." He allowed Captain Sartori to keep a favourite fowling-piece he had with him, and did many other gracious things. All great villains, if they are smart, are courteous. Had the 100-lb. shell gone through the Ariel, the pas sengers, what there would have been left of them, would have thought differently of their captor. Capt. Semmes, in his conversation with Capt. Jones, talked a good deal about the Pacific, and knew all about: our ships-of-war there. Capt. Jones thinks that when the West Indies gets too hot for him, he will turn up in our waters here, but I think not. He might make a raid upon our whalers, and he says he is particularly anxious to cripple New England men—but the facilities for such business as his are much less on the Pacific than on the At lantic. The thing that seemed to trouble him most was the impossibility of his burning Vanderbilt'6 ship, which he could not do on account of her pas sengers. The fact is, he had won an elephant in a raffle. He could not drop them down in any d e se r t place, and he knew he could not land them in Kingston, or in the port of any powerful nation. Captain Semmes told Captain Jones that he coaled last at Martinique, that when he left the port the San Jacinto trained a gun upon him, when the fort immediately trained her guns upon the San Jacinto, and she desisted from the attack. I wouldn't like ;o say that Captain Semmes is a fool, in the face of - • many evidences to the contrary ; but in scaring his bird before he got fat, he has lost the chance of a good dinner a little later. Had he waited till the Ariel returned he might have got a million or so of dollars from her. Now she will not give him a chance. And while he was fiddling with the Ariel he lost the Champion, which passed through the Islands on the 9th. Naval and Military Intelligence. THE NAVY.

The principal topic of interest among us for the past few days, as you may well imagine, has been the boarding and robbery of the Ariel by the Confederate steamer "290,", or Alabama. It is probable before this you have had the main facts, so what I may write can be placed under the head of " further particulars.' My facts I get from Captain Sartori and Captain Jones. On Sunday, tile 7th inst., at two p.m., just as the passengers in the first cabin had sat down to dinner, a report was brought to Captain Jones of "steam warship in sight." No alarm was created by this announce ment, Captain Jones excusing himself to his dinner companions, said he would see what she was like. On ascending to the deck the vessel was about four miles off, under Cape Maize, and was just coming out of the sun glare. She had an American flag flying, but Captain Jones exclaimed, " If that isn't an English rig you may shoot me.'' He ordered his engineer to put on all steam, thinking to run away from the suspected vessel. He soon saw that the bark was rapidly overhauling him, and in a few minutes she fired a blank shot. Captain Jones paid no attention, but kept on his way. A moment after, the bark hoisted the Confederate flag, and bang ! bang! two shells passed over the Ariel. One was a 100-pound steel pointed missile, which explodes immediately on striking the object, but this shell fortunately passed over the vessel without touching her. The other, a round common fuse shell, struck the foremast above the hurricane deck, cutting nearly its size from the mast. In the meantime the 140 officers and marines on board, under Major Garland, had been drawn up on the deck of the Ariel, with their arms, prepared for resistance. Bat the character of the craft having been fully ascer tained, and the futility of defence being clearly ap parent, notwithstanding the remonstrances of Cap tain Jones who wanted to fight, and who declared he would never lower his flag so long as he could fight, the marines were disarmed and ordered below. Then the Stars and Stripes came down, and the Ariel surrendered. At this time the Ariel was going about 81 knots, fast for her, and the Alabama 11 knots, without sail, and only under lllbs. of steam —so says Capt. Jones. Her fires had been banked, and less than an hour before the Ariel hauled down her flag she had started them up. Capt. Semmes told Capt. Jones that under 171bs. of steam he had made 131 knots, but had never worked his steam up any higher, as he never had occasion to do so. He said he could make 15 knots under steam. By 3 p.m. a boat from the Alabama, with 12 men, under the command of Lieut. Low, a young Georgian, the men armed with pistols and cutlasses, was along side. At this time, the consternation and fright among the passengers, particularly among the women, was indescribable. The least many of them expected was to be robbed and have their throats cut. The more prudent had hidden away their money, watches, and jewellery the best way they could, and the more cunning had passed their per sonal articles of value into the hands of British and French passengers. Many who had sworn allegi ance to Uncle Samuel, and who had eaten his salt for 20 years, suddenly forgot to aspirate their h's, and not one of the " Tems" could speak English. As Lieut. Low, in his neat uniform and bland smil ing face, stepped on deck, and politely lifted his cap, the fears began to slightly subside. The first thing he did was to assure the passengers that not a hair of their heads should be plucked out, and not a dollar of personal property taken. Observing that there were United States' officers and marines on board, Lieut. Low communicated with Captain Semmes, and the latter ordered that Captain Jones should come on board the Alabama. When Lieut. Low returned he paroled all the officers and marines, the conditions being that they "should not serve the United States in any manner during the war." To a question of Capt. Sartori, as to whether this prevented the marines and soldiers from serving in the forts of California, to which most of them were destined, he replied, " Yes ; you are to do no service of any kind for your Government." Lieut. Low called for the manifests, and finding some money on them, took possession of 8,000 dole. in Treasury notes, belonging to Messrs. Wells, Fargo, and Co., and 1,500 dole. in silver Niacaragua, belonging to Mr. Peyton Middleton, late United States' Special Inspector of Customs in Panama, and to his American partner in Nicaragua, Mr. E. S. Lane. Being assured by Purser Wheeler that the Ariel had no letter mail, he did not overhaul the sacks, and in fact nothing in that line was dis turbed. Wells, Fargo, and Co.'s sacks, the private sacks of the Panama Railroad Company, the South and Central American and Panama mails, and even the State Department sacks for the United States' Consul at Aspinwall, containing his own corres pondence and that for other consuls, ministers, and naval officers, came safely to hand. Lieutenant Low ordered all the officers to give up their swords, and all the soldiers and marines their arms, and these were taken on board the Alabama. He com pelled Capt. Jones to bond the ship for 125,000 dole., the cargo for 123,000 dols., and freight for 12,000 dols., to be paid within 30 days after the establish ment of the independence of the Confederate States. The Lieutenant, before he left, ordered all the sails of the Ariel to be cut away and thrown overboard, but no ether property was damaged or destroyed, save the liquors of the ship, and not a dollar's worth Was taken out of her except the money. The liquors were destroyed by request of Captain Sartori and Major Garland, as a precaution against their own men, who they feared might get at them in the con fusion, and become unmanageable, now that their officers were disarmed. The heads of the whisky barrels were broken in, and the liquors in the bar thrown overboard. In this connexion it may not be amiss to say that Capt. Semmes complained bit terly to Capt. Jones of the false reports he averred had been made by the commanders of some of the sailing vessels he had taken, particularly of the master of the Lamplighter, who reported that the first thing the officers and sailors demanded on boarding him was liquor. He said that not a drop of liquor was used by his men on that ship, but that it was destroyed, immediately she was boarded, for fear his men might get at it and make brutes of themselves. Lieutenant' Low ordered the Ariel to keep company with the Alabama, and both ships steamed toward Jamaica. At night he again visited the Ariel, and took away with him one a :LI . I steam valves, so as to temporarily disable t he engine. Of course, the Arid drifted about (it was calm weather), and the Alabama left her to look for other prey. Captain J o nes was in formed by Captain Semmes that his passenge rs mie! _s at a great d o i n San Domi ngo would be landed at a porn few buts, thisan Captain J ones ear which has only a dis tance from supplies neatly remonstrated. For God's sa k e, Captain Semmes, don't leave us there !" exclaimed Captain J o nes.. "What, in Heav en ' s name, are 850 per ' sons —a third of them women and children—to live on there ?" He then said he would land them in Jamaica, for he was determined to burn the ship. He said Vanderbilt had given one of the finest steamers in the world to the Government to run him down, and he would destroy everything of his he fell in with. The next day, Monday, the valve was restored, and the Ariel ordered to keep com pany as before. Every little while the Alabama would dart off, leaving the Ariel, on perceiving a sail, give chase to her, and finding she was not American, returned to her game, which she was enabled to do, from the fact she could steam two miles to the Arid's one. At night the valve was again taken out. On Tuesday the ships kept com pany, the Alabama occasionally going on a little cruise after Yankee craft till half-past 10 at night, when they made a light on Jamaica. Capt. Semmes then informed Captain Jones that he would not put his passengers on shore at Port Royal, as the yellow z,ice THE ARMY. l owing to the great difficulty which has recently b een experienced in obtaining a sufficient number of masons, bricklayers, and other mechanics for the ordinary duties at the Royal Engineer establish ment, Chatham, and at the various stations abroad, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, upon the recommendation of Col.
