LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE S.

Tiernen we exhorted the English Government
to act with prudence and forbearance: to-day we
have to exhort the people of America to hold the
hands of their Ooveremeet. With the simereet
attachment to whatever is good in Amoeba biotite-
limas, we ban steadily cherished a cerdlal tfor
the citizens who form the real strength ef the re-
public; and this sttschmest and respect have sae
disposed es to pot the beet ecestreedoe on American
acts, and to hope the best Is every ma of doOthl
political appearances. But if the best edam' ma-
tinee to allow themselves, se at present, to be misre-
presented by their moral GOTerelieldi they will
oblige us to speak of the Government as U it were
the nation. If they desire peas as earnestly es we
know that they do, they .at exert themselves, im-
mediately and vigorously, to restrain the clique of
bellies and buccaneers at Washington and in Central
America—in the centre and on the outskirts of their
national territory—sod provide a better Government
eext November. The world be had great patience
with the breggertism of successive Mamba
spokesmen, in and out of the Administration;
but there is a point beyond which the bad
political morels and offensive international
▪ of these men cannot be endured. The
true politiesl posterity of the great men who founded
the republic should have long ego taken are of
their national integrity and reputation. They gave
way to disgust and. discouragement, and to the diffi-
culties imposed by their "peculiar institution ;• and
the consequence is that a Government near its expi-
retion—a Government despised and repudiated by
almost every political party and every moseimations
citizen in the States—ha brought them to the verge
of a war from which British moderation alone has
thus far saved them, and from which they most now
save themselves. They will do so. There will keno
war. Bet precautions most be taken against a re-
spire of inch a situation es the present, U the repub-
lic of the United States is to preserve its rank among
the nations which recognise the principles of inter-
=basal morality. The republic contains men—
whole classes of men—who are on the highest level
of civilbstion, in its highest memo of intel-
lectual and moral development. It contains,
eleo, seen and cleanse of men who see below
any civilisation which in Europe is repre-
sented by political expression and setice—a large
proportion of them being actually European outcast
edventents, if not worm The question now bee-
daftly pressing is, whether the better climes will
slaw themselves to be manned by the lower,
taking the scamancese of that rapreeentation or
whether they will speak and set for themselves,
shooing State Legislatures, a Congress, end a Fede-
ani Administration, which may be a more true ex-
peados than any recent ones of the genuine Amin-
e= mind sad will. If this is done, all may yet be
retrieved. If it is not does, the further retrogression
of the republic from its early principles and promise
will be • melancholy sysetecile to all good men. But
in say ease there will be at present no war.
The great data of the Northern States, from
which, almost szelesively, the resources of men and
mosey for a foreign war mat be drawn, are not
thinking of going to war with Ragland. This I. not
enagh : what is wanted of them is more vigorous
thiakiss @pease going to war. When the close pree-
son of the crisis makes itself felt, the Northern men
will hold eaventioes like the celebrated HARTFORD
OORTIOITIOX of 1814, which consisted of delegates
from all the New Ragland States, met together to
demesnes the defects of the Federal Constitution,
which permitted them to be bad into a war which
they did sot dean or cars shout, and by which they
sulked ereelly. A =kiss peace put a stop to their
week of amending the soestitation. It will be finished
new if the Pessunir threats= the Northam States
with damage to their marneree, danger from their
vanity to Canada, a fearful coot of life and treasure,
sad the interruption of their agreeable relations with
Europe. Before they submit to each evils they will
Inquire what it is all for: and thee discovering that
they are to any en, by their ma and money, a war
teemed for the sake of the South—to extend the
area of slavery—it is not very likely that they will
soma. Already then has been a declaration on
platforms, from the pulpit, and in newsmen, that a
war malaise= by a President like Pine,
be slave-holding or filibustering purposes (which
me is fest the ease thing), would be at the wee
time a prosiamatioa of the dimpled= of the Union.
The PRISIDIXT himself seemed to be of the some
opinion when he asserted, in his Menage to Ca-
me, the imminent danger of dimpled's to which
the great atonal quarrel bad brought the remade.
Sim that time, the Northers States have pound a
perpetual stream of free 'adore hate Ramses—the
settlement of which is the shoes. =aria of the
strength of the Penman and hie party on the
mm hand, and of the maim American will oe the
ether. As it is so, we glass aside fora moment to
the audition of Rams by the latest emensts.
The whits immigrants from the Smith, forwarded
with so mesh pomp to support slavery is Hansa,
sad furnished publicly with Bibles before their de-
peters from Alabama, arrived in wretched plight—
s remnant of the original company. Four had =-
seceded, et the sum moment wit h the disappeezasee (as
their commander declares) dell the mosey he carried.
Many more deserted an the way, sad the remainder
are complained of by their Xeres hosts as paupers,
drunkards and vagabonds. Meantime the than:ash-
bred New England settlereflock is, in amain( Eva
ben, and the latest proceeding of the Pitmen's
paigh, the Shannon sad Missouri party, is evideetly
an set of despair. Congress, it will be reesembeeed,
sent a commission of its own members to lenses to
inquire into the fats of the owe of the rival seam
meats and el/otiose. After every possible attempt
to pt rid of the witnesses, at the sea of some mur-
ders and many threats, the desperate enterprise of
destroying the evidence taken is the one sow being
resorted to. The @aldose, is deer, copier, and dem-
eatery ; and the portion already divulged will make
&reps ask whether such things lea really take
pies in a civilised country. The only hope of the
Border Rebut party le in preventing this widens*
ever reaching Cosines in a preetiesba torn. For
this purpose the leaden, who have already burned
hallot•boxes and held pistols to the heeds of the
authorities—offering them "five minutes to rale er
die," had collated their Border itallooo, mad were
searching dews epee the Crearaiideeere et Ow
gram at the departure et the het seesents. There
are rumours of meted evediet deem, the free seldom
and Northern Immigrants bevies tern= net i. de-
bees of the Coneeheiosers. The energy shows by

the Mothers States in this bombast. a ears promise
to as that there shall be no war. The cease is meg.
Weal by them to be the SUDO in both cams. Their
stake in an European war wash* be incaleulably
greater; and there is no reason whatever to doubt
that they will express, by some new HAVIVOID CON-
vmcnort or otherwise, their resolution to alter their
administration, and, if need be, their constitution,
rather than go to war with England for no better
cause. We wish they would make heats. We see
that they are laying elaborate commercial plane,
which involve a supposition of peace, and lapping
themselves in dilletantism (the present rage in that
country of enthusiasms), and expecting everything
rather than war; bet it is time they were making it
understood at Wsehingtou that there shall be no war
with England at less cost than the dissolution of the
Union.

Again,—the South has no mind to go to war with
us. Os the contrary, it is aghast at the thought.
We need but refer to the " peculiar institution "I
which readers Southern citizens afraid of strangers,
and all/webs their resource, of men, and impoverishes
them as to mosey; and to their long line of inde•
fusible coast; and to their dread of the annexation
of Canada; and to the value of their cotton trade
with England. The best and wisest of theta are
aware, as they no anger conceal, that the "peculiar
institution" mast soon be given op; and the worst
and weakest are aware that a war with England is
not the way to preserve it.
Again, the Americans are not qualified for sue
taped warfare with any European nation. What-
ever their filibusters may think, the Americans are
not a military nation, but destined, if they could but
se* it, to a higher emotion. If invaded, üby Eng-
land eighty years ago, they would command the
world's admiration, now as then—sot in a military
Renee, but oa the higher ground of patriotic valour
and devotedness , summated from the virtue of their
came. 'Thar wars sine the old Broadests died out
bate bees of a deteriorating character. Their
males have been barbarians or poltroons. They
do not know what regular warier* is; and their
institute.. prevent their ever having any Elifati-
-6E09 of it. Military and naval discipline are out of
the question in their OM, as is shown on every long
mauls, and after every long voyage. Their naval
ethers are perplexed between lack of authority, and
the necessity of devising substitutes for it; and
American soldiers were punish' d, day by day, in the
Mexican war, in ways which would excite an universal
mutiny in the British army. Desertions are numer-
ous beyond precedent; sad the chief command of an
American force—even in snob small wars as those
of late years—is a heart-breaking °Moe for the
boldest and steadiest man. WASHINGTON, with
his force of devoted citizens, animated by the
noblest patriotism, fond the command of his
desultory and shifting army a well nigh impair
ticable task. In the present case, when military'
practice has been weakening there as much *as it
has advanced in Europe, when there is no patriotic
cause,—no principle of any kind—at stake, when the
troops would be composed of the mentos, insubordi-
nate, adventurous, and buccaneering element of the
population, while the South could give no men and
the North would pay no mosey, it is safe to my that
the United States could net go to war with us. They
most wait far a good same. With a good canoe, there
is nothing ever to be achieved by men that they
could not and would sot amt. Without it, it I.
the beet praise of them to nay that they must fail.
Their beet men know it, and will act accordingly;
and, being perfectly assured of this, we etafidently
assort that there will be no war.

Foe the present, we earnestly recommend it to our
Mende end brethren woes the Atlantic to look to
their Pizeromey, daring the short remainder of
his term, and then to replies him by one whom they
Gan meanly accredit Wes as the representative and
interpreter of their mind and will. Some of no have
known from the beginning that President Prince
never was so : bat their letting him pus se each has
brought the two countries into a state of collision
which will net bear repetition. Oar American friends
sad teethes* mast look to this; for an established
reputed= for quanelsomssmes mast doom any
natioo,—and themselves above all other,—to a
mans of retrogreesioa, and a " manifest destiny " of
decline.
