NOTICE.

All remittances are, henceforth, to be made to
Mr. JOHN CHAPLIN, at The Sun office, 112,
Strand, who has been appointed, by the Lord
Chancellor, Receiver and Manager of The Sun
newspaper, and the outstanding debts due in
respect thereof.

It seems wonderful that any one could have been
imposed upon for even five minutes by the out-
rageous telegram of yesterday. News had reached
England from the North four clays later than the
date of a telegram which almost asserted the uncon-
ditional surrender of the late army of the Potomac,
now the Federal army before Richmond ; yet we
were to believe that such a portentous piece of
intelligence was furnished to the Glasgow on the
3d, and not to the Jura (which arrived first) on the
7th ! As if, however, to put all doubt at rest, the
Arabia brings us news six days later than that sent
by the agent of our contemporary, and has not one
word on the surrender of eighty or ninety thousand
men to the Confederates. On the contrary, it
informs us of two facts looking the other way—
first, that the Confederates are reported to be
falling back on Richmond ; and, secondly, that
BURNSIDE is moving up from Newbern towards
Richmond. Newbern is in North Carolina, about
150 miles south of Richmond, and of course he will
have to cross the James River to join M'CLELLAN.

Little reason was there that such a bold impos-
ture should be a ground for Mr. LINDSAY to post-
pone his motion. It added nothing to what we
knew before, and Mr. LINDSAY did well to give an
opportunity to Members of Parliament and the
Government to express their views. The object
was not to carry any resolution—enough to let the
Government and the country, we may add, and
America too, know the opinions prevalent in the
British House of Commons. Americans will see
that even so determined an advocate of the North
as the member for Bradford, Mr. W. E. FORSTER,
does not endorse all the opinions and representations
current at Washington and New York. He, too'
thought it quite possible that the North might find
it had undertaken a task beyond its strength, and
urged that as a reason why we should leave them
alone to find it out. He even acknowledged that
the courage and endurance of the South were beyond
all praise; while he strongly suspected that the
President would not find it so easy to raise
the 300,000 as he did to obtain the first 500,000,
the vast Lumbers of sick and wounded returning
to the North making but bad recruiting sergeants.
Mr. FORSTER endeavoured, however, to make out
that slavery was the cause of the war, and that the
war would be the end of slavery, though in what way
it would be so he could not explain, nor apparently
on Northein principles, even conjecture. Mr. TAY-
LOR, however, the member for Leicester, another
warm advocate of the North, spoke the truth more
clearly. He described the strife as " the NEMESIS
of that system of slavery which condemned to
ehattelism four millions of human beings, and
Which, taken in connection with the civilisation
Prevailing beyond its pale, might be described as
the •
wickedest and most infernal system the world
had ever neen.„
But Mr. TAYLOR fairly acknow-
ledged the
guilt of the North in its concessions,
and comprorais .
es, its indifference to slavery, and its
infamous Fugitive
Slave Law—in truth, though
Mr TAYLOR did not say so much, the North is now
suffering the NEMESIS of its own caressing and
fostering the slavery of
the South, of its
