NOTES OF THE WkEK.

The Federal accounts of the battle of Gettys-
burg were more near the truth than we at first
gave them credit for. Hitherto our Yankee
Mends have been so greatly in the habit of mag-
nifying their victones and diuninishiug their
reverses, that we were not prepared to receive
from them so moderate an account of what really
did take place. The event of the 3rd, however,
after all, amounted to nothing more thin a
repulse—a serious one it must be confessed—•
repetition of M'Clellan's stand in Maryland,
conforming to what seems to be the settled law
of this war, that defeat shall be the lot of the
assailant. There is now no question that in
General Meade the Federsis posses. • most able
commander. Respecting Lee's intention for
making his movement into Pennsylvania we still
remain in the dark—whether he had any design
against any of the three great cities within his
reach, or whether his plan was mainly to sweep a
rich country for the supply of his wants, and at the
same time take the chances of accident that
might be turned to military account. If the
latter was his object, the booty be has acquired,
however great it may be, has cost him dear in
the thinning of his ranks. The Times, however,
taking the most hopeful view of the case, seems
to think that the Confederates are not so weak-
ened as to lose all hopes of ultimate success.
Lee, it is said, remains in position in Maryland,
and in a condition to try again the fortunes of
war, and that even if he then fail he may fall
beck on Virginia. The tinily News, however,
gives us another aspect of the state of affairs.
The two armies are face to face, and our con-
temporary writes, "Should Meade find himself
sufficiently strong, it is not impossible that, by
establishing three or four bridges near Harper's
Ferry, he may succeed in operating on both
sides the river without incurring the danger of
being attacked in detail. A strong force of
cavalry, supported by a division of infantry and
• powerful artillery, advancing along the southern
bank, might seriously endanger the floating
bridgesof the Confederates. Even if such a plan of
operations sere considered too hazardous, or if it
be true that General Beauregard was come up to
the Virginian side of the river with 40,000 men,
it is still open to General Meade to attack the
enemy from the rear of their position. Indeed,
it must be confessed that late events have been
most disastruus to the Confederate mum, as if
Lee should be again beaten it is impossible to
see what is to prevent his marching in reality to
Richmond, while with the fall of Vicksburg,
Port Hudson must. in all probability, pass into
Federal bands. The Times' southern corres-
pondent, in reference to this subject, says :
" The two citadels, Vicksburg and Port Hudson,
(he says) may be regarded as two cherries upon
one stalk. The fate of one will probably be the
fate of the other. That such a disaster as the
bisection of the Confederacy by Federal posses-
sion of the entire length of the Mississippi is
probably the gravest which has befallen the
rebels since the commencement of the war, not
excepting the fall of New Odeon, cannot for a
moment be denied. But in One thing the Fede-
ral; will be greatly disappointed. They must
change the hearts of every man, woman and '
child for a length of 800 miles along the Missis-
sippi's course before they can re-establish trade,
emanating from St. Louis, Cincinnati, and
Louisville as its fountain beads, with the resi-
dents along the mighty river's banks. It will be
found that if Vicksburg and port Hudson fall,
that the disaster will greatly prolong the war,
but will ho far from irremediable."
The fall of Vicksburg, the anticipated fall of
Port Hudson, the severe repulse of General Lee,
and the loped-for crowning victory over him has
set the Yankee mind on the tiptoe of expectation
and delight of • war with England and France.
It is said that the South is so broken that it
cannot much longer resist, and it is suggested
that domestic quarrels could be easily salved
over by joint action against foreigners. The
Southerners, we are told, are almost as bitter
against us for not recognising them, as the
Northerners are for not sympathising with thim.
The New York _Herald recommends that reconci-
liation and an amnesty should be offered to the
South. with a promise to uphold its institutions
—including slavery—that Lincoln's confiscation
proclamation to the South should be recalled,
and to heal all home sores by a foreign war, thus
embracing the opportunity for a final and decisive
settlement with France and England upon
American affairs. This it may be said, is only
the old nostrum recommended over again; but
we are told that it is one that is seriously enter-
tained by the Washington government, and
encouraged even by those democrats, who,
sympathising with the South, wish to maintain
the Union. A private party, writing to his
Moods in England, says :—" When our home
troubles sod, yours IWO very likely to bit. The
first lull in the rebellion, or the great
Northern success which causes a pause in the war,
owing to the exhaustion of the South—above all,
a pesos, however patched up—will be the signal
for a quarrel with you good folks in England,
and possibly with France too. Not as some
would think through hatred of England (though
the North hates you, and the South does not love
you), but because a foreign war—as some-
thing in which both sides can agree—is abaolutely
necessary to consolidate peace by turning the
sore feeling of both into • new channel—giving
both a third party to fight against side by side,
and vent all their remaining exasperation upon.
This is Mr. Seward's favourite notion, and every
one you speak to almost admits that it is neces-
sary (a necessary evil if you will) towards the
healing process. So look out. Two months after
we patch up affairs at home, we must fight you l"
Many may suppose that the idea of attack-
ing an innocent party for the purpose of making
things square in home is too atrocious for
even Americana to seriously entertain; Out we
have seen before now that they can commit very
atrocious, acts such as no other civilised people
would dream of, for the sake of again patching
up their dearly. beloved "Union."
Prince laartschakoff, the Minister of the Cur,
alter taking for deliberation, has advised
his Imperial master to evade every conosesion
asked Poland by the three Powers; to Wale

te ptuposal for an armistice, and to reject the I
Idea of a Conference as an iiiiwnrrantable inter-
ference in Ms affairs. But in shaping biz an-
swer', Prince Oortachakoff has endeavoured to
adapt hi/ language and tone to the position held by
the different Governments with which be hail to
deal. Putting his diploinatic hand on the shoulders
of Austria, be reminds her that they had been
equally guilty of spoil, that they aught to be
friends and not quarrel; suggests that the matter
in question only affects details of internal ad-
ministration ; and that if the three Powers con-
cerned in the partition of Poland were only to
agree, they might laugh to scorn old England
•Ith her lawyer-talk of treaty rights, and young
France with her dreams of remodelling the map
of Europe. In terms, superciliously polite, bat
as irritating and insulting as could well be penned,
France is told distinctly that it is accountable
if not for originating, at least for surreptitiously
stimnlating, the •‘ projects of cosmopolitan revo-
lution," which have Poland now for the scene of
their development, but which, by and by. set
to work elsewhere. Every sentence of the dis-
patch MOMS to ring with the unuttered imputa-
tion. "This trouble is of your making, and we
shall not therefore trust to you to take part in
putting it down." Towards England another
toi.e is held. The Conservative spirit of the
country is appealed to against the insiduous arts
of foreigners, who are, it is pretended, the chief
satire in this "stage play," got up, in the face
of Europe, for political effect. England's sup-
posed concern for the safety of Prussia is
openly appealed to; and the great conspiratctr
at Paris is pointed at as holding the dark lantern
of a European plot in his band. It is creditable
to Auatria that she has this once risen superior
to her traditions, and has taken • step without
waiting for solicitation or suggestion from London
or Paris, which will no doubt equally surprise
and disappoint the cruel cunning of St. Peters-
burg. Count }Hallberg, the Austrian Minister,
is said to have lost no time in sending a pre-
liminary answer to Prince Gortschakoff, abso-
lutely refusing to entertain the suggestion of a
triple conference between the three partitioning
powers, and declaring the fixed determination of
Austria to adhere to the understanding and
concert subsisting between her, England, and
France.
The sensational exhibition, which last week
took plaoein Aston Park, when a female Blondin
met her death by walking a tight-rope for aug-
menting the funds for Foresters' Widows and
Orphans, was the most cruel and disgraceful we
ever read of. The poor creature was advanced
iii pregnancy, and in this state she was to walk a
rope, a la Blondin, stretched at the height of
30 feet, first with ankles shackled in chains and
feet in baskets, next with • basket over her head,
and lastly swaddled in a sack. The interest of
the performance thus mounted step by step, with
the probability of a failure—that is to say, death.
The calculation to bring lovers of sensation and
money to the doors was, "If she gets over walking
a rope in chains, she will never be able to make
liar way blindfold or in a sack." The report
says When all was prepared the band struck
up a lively tune, and Madame Genieve stepped
cautiously, and apparently with some degree of
hesitation, on the rope. She walked about half
It. length knelt and stood upon one leg, then
returned to her resting-place. At this point her
husband stepped for • ard and attached &couple of
steel chains to his wife's ankles and wrists. Again
the poor creature moved forward, evidently in
no spirit of confidence, but she walked slowly
along the entire length of the rope, reaching the
opposite resting-place in safety. An attendant
approached and removed the chains, at the same
time placing a bag over her head, with an addi-
tional blindfold. In this condition the woman
again moved on the rope; she held the balancing
pole in her hands, and cautiously put her f et to
feel her way; she had trodden but three faltering '
steps when the rope collapcied, the platform on
which the attendant was standing fell back, and
the poor woman was dashed to the ground."
After this horrid spectacle what was to be done I
the managing committee of the Foresters con-
sulted together, and determined that the amuse-
ments should proceed, omitting such as danger-
ous, enough having been done in that way
already; and, with the corpse lying close by—
music, dancing, drinking, and rio-mg proceeded
as if nothing bad been done to disturb the
merriment. Can any stronger proof be of the
demoralising and brutalising nature of these
exhibitions. It turns out that the rope on which
the unfor.unate woman performed was rotten.
Had this been known and set forth in the bills,
it would have attracted double or treble the
number of spectators delighting in sensation.
Lord Malmesbury, in bringing this case before
the House of Lords, expressed a strong opinion
that it was high time to out a stop to exhibitions
tba whole interest of shich lies in the danger,
and we heartily agree with him. We cannot
concur in Lord Granville's trust, that the force of
public opinion will outline ass corrective. It was
found necessary to call law into force to put
down bear-baiting, cock-fighting, dog-fights,
prize-fights, and bull-baiting, and we may rest
'immured that these sensational exhibitions, so
brutalising in their tendency, however much
they may be condemned by the right-thinking
portion of the community, will never COM till
put down by Act of Parliament.
