of our officers and men, which, however unpleasant
1 to contemplate and believe, is nevertheless so true,
and so directly the result of our military blunder-
ing, that it is useless to shut our eyes against the
facts. . . . There is not an ardent soul in this
land that more earnestly desires to see the end of
this war than does the great majority of the officers
and men of this army. So strong has this feeling
become that hundreds and thousands hare become
intensely disgusted with the service, and are anxi-
ous to leave it. Resignations of the very best field
and line officers are going on by the sore, and are
only prevented from taking effect by the exercise of
the military prerogative of disapproval. The men
are discontented, and many of the brave rank and
file almost prefer the dishonour attached to deser-
tion to being dragged through another long period
of inaction. These are plain words, but
they are undeniably true. There is one thing cer-
tain, the disruption of this nation is so near being
accomplished, that if the people of the North knew
the whole truth they would be struck dumb."
Both of these gentlemen call for instant action to
remedy this deplorable state of affairs which they
describe, but do not Gen. M'Clellan and Gen. Hal-
leck know, and do not their own statements con-
firm the fact, that the army is not in a position to
advance ? And is not one soldier of the South,
fighting without the hope of reward for the inde-
pendence of his native land, led by officers who have
both courage and genius,worth a dozen of Irish and
German mercenaries, fighting for a cause of which
they do not understand the merits, and which, if
they do understand, they very often disapprove.
Perhaps, however, the inaction of the army is more
nearly at an end than they suppose, and M'Clellan
or his successor may have to accept battle instead
of offering it.

Unpopular as General M'Clellan is with the Re-
publicans and abolitionists, General Buell, the next
most important Federal officer in command of an
army in the field, is equally, if not more so. He is
accused of having stated at the commencement of
his military career that he did not know who was
right or who was wrong in the struggle—the North
or the South, and to have acted throughout the war
on the lazy principle of poco-curanrism. He is
declared to be always behind time, to have lost th,,
battie of Pittsburg Landing by his indifferentism,
and to have wilfully, if not treason bly, allowed
General Bragg to retire from Perrysville, and out
of Kentucky into Tennessee, without serious loss,
though his army in overwhelming force, stood idly
by, within a few miles, and might have captured
the Confederate army. Some weeks ago the Pre-
sident, moved by the urgent complaints of the
Abolitionists, superseded General Buell in his corn.
mand ; but only to reinstate him by telegraphic
dispatch a few days afterwards. He also is a West
Pointer, and the inuendo is daily made that the
West Pointers on both sides love each other too
well to fight very desperately, and that some fine
morning before anyone suspects the manoeuvre they
will unite their armies, and make an end of the Re-
public.
But, as they are ail mediocrities, with one
or two exceptions on the Southern side, this solu-
tion of the national difficuties is not so likely as a
European intervention, the fear of which is daily
losing its terrors,
The opposition to the much dreaded-conscription
takes in some parts of the country the mild form
of postponement, the wealthy citizens hoping that
it may in many counties and cities, if not in whole
States, be avoided by doubled and redoubled offers
of bounty-meney to Irishmen and Germans, and to
newly arrived emigrants. In Pennsylvania it has
taken a shape much mere formidable ; no less than
5,000 of the colliers and miners of Schuylkill
county having turned out, armed with pikes,
pistols, and other weapons, to resist its operation,
declaring they will not return to their work
until an assurance is given them from the Go-
vernor of the State that they shall be exempted.
And yet the " buncombe" orators and "extermina-
tors" in Nev England and elsewhere continue to
talk and write of the patriotic and united North ;
and to prophesy as confidently as ever that by the
Ist of January the rebellion will be crushed and
the Union restored! And the worst of it is the
persons who talk in this manner believe what they
They know so little of their own people, and
so much less of the South, and they so enormously
over-estimate the strength of their " ism," the re-
sources at the command of the Government, and the
patriotic purpose of the North, that, taking their
hopes for facts, and their passion for sober reason,
they are always ready to fix an early date for the
conquest of the Southern people, and to imagine
that noting in the world can withstand their army,
which they know to be mercenary, and their gene-
rals, whom they assert to be incompetent.
But the deep distrust of the merchants and men
of business, and of people who neither talk nor
write, is shown in Wall-street. Gold, the delicate
and unerring barometer of the hopes and fears of
commerce, tells a tale of alarm, if not of despon-
dency. The silly expedient of the Board of Brokers
in striking the prices of gold from the official lists,
in compliance with a suggestion of Mr. Chase, sent
down the price of the commodity five per cent. at
one bound on Wednesday, but only to allow it to
mount up again on the same day, after a series of
violent fluctuations, to nearly its former position.
To day it stood at the close of business at 32 per
cent. premium; and it is more than probable that,
high as the range had been, gold is not yet within
10 or 15 per cent. of the extreme price which it is
destined to attain, under the combined operation
of Mr. Lincoln's proclamation and Mr. Chase's
finance, to say nothing of the quarrels of the gene-
rals, the demoralisation of the army, and the general
bewilderment of the public.

If anything ought to inspire hope amid the dark
counsels of the nation at this time, it is the
unmistakeable evidence afforded by the local elec-
tions that the extreme war party is in disfavour, and
that a strong conservative reaction has set in
against abolitionism, federalism, centralism, in-
vasion of State rights, and the arbitrary and alto-
gether unconstitutional action of the President and
his Cabinet. Even Connecticut has elected the
Democratic Ticket, and there is a strong probability
that Massachusetts itself—the focus of all the ill-
will excited against the Union in the minds of the
Southern people, will do likewise, and consign
Governor Andrew and the fanatics who support
him to harmlessness and private life. In New York
the prospects of the success of Mr. Horatio Seymour
and his ticket grow brighter every day, and the
malice and misrepresentation of the opposing party
increase in a corresponding ratio. Next to Mr.
Vallandigham, defeated i❑ Ohio, the two most pro-
minent candidates for election to Congress in the
Democratic interest are Mr. Fernando Wood and
his brother, Mr. Benjamin Wood, of this city, both
of whose supporters declare that there is not the
shadow of a chance of their failure. These and the
elections for Governor will take place on the 4th of
November, and already excite an amount of interest
and discussion in every part of the country suffi-
cient to prove the immense importance everywhere
attached to them. If successful here, the Demo-
cratic party cannot fail to be strong in the next
Oongress—strong enough to show the President
that his policy on the slavery question and his
attempt to excite a servile war have not been in
unison with the sentiment of the people, and that
it has alarmed the country even more then the non-
success of his armies and the incompetency of his
generals.

LAW INTEL.tiGENCE.—Nov. 7.

COURT OF DIVOWIE.
(Before the Judge Ordinary.)
GLENNIE V. GLENNIE AND BOWLES.
The following evidence was given this morning
on behalf of the respondents, who, in addition to
not guilty, had pleaded connivance and condona-
tion.
Miss Margaret Jane Macrae, e;taininell by Mr.
kluddleston, Q.C., for the respondent-4 am Sint:
of Mrs. Glennie. I knew Mr. Bowles before my
sister was married. I first became acquainted with
the intimacy that had existed between my sister
and her husband on the morning of the Wedding.
That Wrie the first time I ever saw Mr. Glen-
nie. My sister had been living at Mrs. Di,bb.s's
Brompton. Walton Villas, rompton. I wag
ng
with my mother at Fulham. My brother
lived at Bow. My sister left home tour or
five years ago: She came from Scotland and
lived in different places in London. I saw very
little of her. I had seen Mr. Glerinie's portrait and
heard his name mentioned tour or five years ago.
the had a gold watch and chain, but I am not
aware that Mr. Glennie knew who had given them
to her. A week after the marriage I saw Mr.
Bowles at Somerset-house. I afterwards told Mr.
Glennie that it was not proper to have him coming
to the hotrsel for I thought it very imprudent in
Mr. Glennie to haVe him coming there considering
how intimate my sister had been with him before
her marriage. I received the letter produced from
Mr. Glennie. [lt was dated Oct. 14, 1863, and the
writer said he regarded Mr. Bowles as a mutual
friend, for he had been very kind to Bella. It re-
ferred to some false reports which had been circu-
lated ae he feared for the purpose of creating a cold-
ness between him and his wife, but he observed
that their trust in each ether and in God was too
strong to be affected by Etch calumnies.] I re-
member my sister going one night to the theatre.
She went home egain after that, I believe.
I remember her sleeping with me twice at Ful-
ham. One time was on the 4th of January, and
the other was two days before the final separation.
I remember that the former of these occasions was
the 4th of tanuary, because I was in the house
alone, my mother and younger sister being at Bow.
My sister came at half pan eleven at
,night, and
went away early in the morning—eat nine or per-
haps before. When she came a lady and gentle,
man were with her, but 1 did not see who they
were. Sic slept with rn., and went ayeay before I
was up. I saw Mr. Glennie on the Wednesday or
Thursday following. He did not mention to me
anything about his wife sleeping oat on the pre-
vious Saturday (the 4th). Mr. Glennie Left
my
-inter at Peoge on a Wednesday. I had been there
on the day previous. I batieve they slew. together
on that night, but. I had gone home to Fulham.
By the Queen's Advocate (for the co-respondent)
—I made the acquaintance of Mr. Bowles a few
months before the marri tge I Sa* him with her
two or three times before the wedding.
Cross-examined by Mr. K trsl. ke, Q.C.(for the
petitioner)—l am eighteen years of age. My sister
formerly lived with an aunt in Scotland, bur. I was
with my mother in London. When she came to
London I believe she at first stayed at my mothers;'
but I hardly recollect, for at that time I was a girl
at school. Then she left home, and I heard that
Mr. Glennie was keeping her awe; somewhere. I
had spoken to my sister about Mr. Bowles before I
received the leiter from Mr. Glennie which has been
read. When we went to the theatre it was with
Mr. Bowles. We had met him in Piccadilly. We
went to see the " Colleen Bawn." After the per-
formance was over I went home in a cab to Fulham.
My sister left before me. Mr. Bowles went out of
the theatre with her, and I saw no more of her that
night. On the 4th of January I had gone to bed
at ten, and I was caned up at half-past eleven to let
my sister in.
Re-examined—lt was after the letter was written
that I spoke to Mr. Glennie about Mr. Bowles com-
ing to the house. Mr. Glennie never mentioned
my sister's going to the theatre to me. He never
said anything about her staying out, which I used
to think very strange.
Miss Eliza Hutchinson—l live at 58, Grove-
place, Brompton. I know Mrs. Glennie. I recol-
lect going with her one night to Fulham on the
4th of January. A gentleman who was at that
time keeping company with me was with us. I
saw her going into the house; and then the gen-
tleman and I walked home again. I left my apart-
ments on the 7th January. At that time I was
living in Oxford-street.
Cross-examined—The gentleman and I have now
apartments in the same house. We are still keep-
ing company. I had known Mrs. Glennie about
two years. I have never been to her mother's ex-
cept on that one occasion. We had met her
in Piccadilly at half-past nine. I don't hnow Mr.
Bowles; but I have seen him. He was pointed out
to me 'op a fellow lodger who had heard something
about him.
By the Judge—We got back from Fulham at a
little before 12. Mrs. Macrae lived a short distance

from the bridge.
Mr. George God ward—l have served my time to
an architect and surveyor. I recollect meeting Mrs.
Glennie, while I was walking with Miss Hutchin-
son, in Piccadilly. It was, I believe, on a Monday
or Tuesday night, a fortnight after Christmas, but
I cannot precisely say which. We went with her
to No. 11, Moorpark• terrace, Fulham. I have known
Mrs. Glennie about two years. When we got to
Fulham Mrs. Glennie went indoors, and the
last witness and I went away. I don't know who
opened the door, but I believe ir wls her sister.
Cross-examined—l have not commenced business
very long. i was fir it asked to come here in June
last.

Dine Poly, of 23, Bedtordbury. charwoman and
flower •seller—l know Mis Dibbs. I was in the
habit of going there to sell flowers to Mrs. Glennie.
I have also worked there. I knew Mr. Glennie
and Mr. Bowles. One afternoon I saw Mrs. Glen-
nie in bed with Mr. Bowies at Mrs. Dibbs's. It
was just before she got married. She we'll by the
name of 13,11,4 Howard. Mr. Glennie came the same
afternoon. Sne was still in bed with Mr. Bowles
when he came. Mrs. Glennie bad rung the bell,
and I had answered it. Mrs. Glennie asked me to
bring a little :warm milk for Mr. Bowles, as he
was very unwell. (A laugh.) As I was leaving
the room to fetch the milk Mr. Glennie came in;
and Mrs. Glennie jumped out of bed exclaiming,
"Ohmy !" (Laughter.) Mr. Glennie put his head
on the table, and said, " Bella, you've deceived me,
for you said Tom Bowles would not be here to-day."
I went downstairs and said to Mrs. Dibbs," There's
a dark gentleman come." Mrs. Dibbs replied,
" Oh, my, won't there be a bowl-out now." (Roars
of laughter.)
Cross-examined—l was asked to come here last

Mr. Karslake—Do you see Mr. Bowles now ?
Witness—Yes, sir; it is that gentleman (point-
ing to one in quite a different part of the court from
that in which Mr. Bowles was sitting).
Catherine Macrae, a little girl, the younger sister
of the respondent, spoke to the familiar terms on
which Mi. Bowles and Mr. Glennie lived. On one
occasion Walter asked Bella if she had been out .
a brougham with Tom, and she said " Yes.,, At
another time when Walter asked Mr. Bowles if he
would come and dine with him on the next day, he
said " Yes, I'd better bring my luggage and stop
altogether." (Laughter.) Heard the respondent tell
the petitioner that she had not had any money from
Mr. Bowles, but that she should have some to-mor-
row. Mr. Glennie turned sulky and went to bed.
Saw Bella one Friday niw t slip some money into
Walter's hand and say, " That's what I promised
you." One night he said to her " You'd better send
that little chap (meaning witness) home,, Mr. Bowles
is quite enough to keep you company.'
Cross-examined—All this took place at Pimlico.
Witness went there during the aThristrnas holidays.
Mr. Danit l Parrott, of 25, Victoria-grove, lodg-
ing-house keeper—l know Mr. and Mrs. Glennie.
They lodged at my house from Oct. 7 to the 11th
of November last. I know Mr. Bowles. He came
to visit them several times. He was once or twice
there when Mr. Glennie was at home.
Mr. George Macrae, of Bow, nurseryman—I am
brother of Mrs. Glennie. I did not visit her till
after ber husband had left ber at Penge. In Octo-
ber I called at the house, and Mr. Glennie came out
to me. He said, " I am sorry I can't ask you in ;
but I have a gentleman here whom I don't wish
you to see. I will come out and have a walk with
you." Then he turned round to his wife and said,
" Bella, Tom will take care of %. ou." We went to
public-house ann had some sherry. He said he
knew he ought to ask my forgivenese, ior he hid
st.tintei both eigaiest Gad end
rne. I told
min that as he had in,irriet; ray siNt,..r I would let
hygoees be bygone. I told him also that I had
called because I had learned from my sister that his
brother, the Rev. John Glennie, of Green-street,
had been down there and cross. questioning her
about her plat life. I said, too, that I had heard
that they were still in the habit of meeting their
old associates. He replied that that was true, and
that it was not pleasant when walking out to be
accosted by their old associates in sin ; add-
ing, that as his fa, her was a minister to the
Marquis of 'Westminster he was afraid that it
might come to his lordship's ears. I offered to
take them to live with me at B ,w, but I wanted
to know who the man was that he had left with
her. He said it was a gentleman who had kept
Bella with him before they were married. I
ob-
served that if that was the case, he was going
very rum way to work. He replied he could notwas
'ow Bella of her old friends; and B
He said as
t ~
-h, only on- thqt she ever ,uw-
Bella was very fond of him,and that he would hate

married her only he (Qlennie) was the best looking
chap of the two. (Laughter.) He also remarked 1
that. Tom Bowles was a stunning fellow, and bad
plenty of money. He said, "As we were very much
in debt when we got married it is convenient to
have rich friends, and Bowles is likely to come into
a good bit of money by marrying a French lady."
I replied, " Wel, if you come down to Bow I'll have
no Tom Bowles there." (Laughter.)
Cross-ex imined—Have been a gardener all my
life; except that I once went to India as a purser.
went to see about laying out a place for Sir
lannetjat: Jejeebhoy. I have been unfortunate in
business, and hb: ve been in Whitecross-street pri-
son. I have bad my ;:resent business about four
years. I refused to see my bLgter till she was mar-
ried—at least I would have seenh myself, but
my wife viould not. My interview the peti-
tioner lasted about four hours. Mr. Cirenni.: was
"getting on" a little. A very little seenaec fry tf4k,
effect on him.

Philip Watson, a shopman in the employ of
Messrs. Harvey and Nichols., proved that Mr. Bowles
had purchased some " rep" curtains there for his
chambers.
The Queen's Advocate then put in three notes
from the petitioner to the co respondent. The last
was dated Jan. 17, and contained the following pas-
sage—" I find, to my sorrow, that Bella had ac-
cepted the loan of Rutherford's brougham, or rather
that he had given her a carte blanche to have a
brougham from Baker's, where he keeps his, when-
ever she pleased, and at his expense. I suppose he
is now nettled at her taking no notice of him. . .
If you will send me back the bills I will do my best
to pay them."
Atcheson, the porter at Palace-chambers, recalled
for the petitioner, said the hall door was not fastened
till 6 o'clock in the winter and 8 in the summer.
All the gentlemen who had chambers were supplied
with latch-keys. In the daytime the page Gibbs at-
tended in the hall to answer questions. After the
door was shut Gibbs had other duties to perform.
Huddleston then addressed the Court, con-
tending that the alibi had been satisfactorily made
out ; and also that whatever the conduct.t f the wife
might have been, the husband had deliberately con-
nieed at and condoned it.
The Queen's Advocate followed on the same side,
insistimit, strongly on the evidence of connivance.
Mr. Kerslake, in reply, ridiculed the extraordi-
nary attempt which had been made to prove that
the respondent had not passed the night of Jan. 4th
with the co-trespondent. The account she g ,ve of
the transaction was, that she had gone to visit her
sick mother, whereas it turned cut that the mother
was not that day at Fulham at all. There could not
he the least, doubt that adultery had been committed
over a►ai over again at. Palace-chambers. As to the
t-le Of eon lan &tom, L,J rca! evidence had been given
in support of it. Neither had there been any satis-
factory proof of culpable carelessness on the part
of the husoand. Mr. Bowles was no doubt an in-
timate ft iend of the petitioner, but no ground had
been show❑ for surmising that. he (the husband)
was wilfully blind to the manner in which the
co•tespondent had abused his confidence. The evi-
dence of the respondent's brother was absurdly self-
contradictory. According to this witness, the peti-
tioner was in one breath professing that he had
married his wife from a feeling of penitence, and in
the next he was shamelessly confessing that he
wished to make a market of her sin.
Sir C. Cresswell said he had no doubt or diffi-
culty as to the judgment which he ought in this
case to pronounce. He believed that a very great
degree of intimacy had existed between the respon-
dents before, at, and after the marriage. He believed
that the respondent went to Palace-chambers on
the evening of Jan. 4, and that she was in the co-
respondent's bedroom when the chambermaid went
into the other apartment to light the fire. Whether
or not she did in the night go to Fulham and re-
turn by half-past seven the next morning was
wholly immaterial, for he could not doubt that
adultery was committed, whether she did or did
not. Neither did he believe that any corrupt conni-
vance had been established against the petitioner.
There could be no doubt that he (the petitioner) was
a very weak young man. He had been persuaded
that he was the father of a child by her, and that
he had thus committed an offence against God and
man, for which he was bound to make reparation.
What, then, could be so absurd as for him to marry
a woman to legalise his connexion with her, and at
the same time to contemplate her habitual commis-
sion of adultery with Bowles? He (the learned
judge) could not believe that the petitioner had any
knowledge of the terms on which the respondents
had lived before the marriage ; for he really could
not place any confidence ,n the evidence of the
flower woman. fhe view which the court had taken
was confirmed by the letter of Jan. 17 ; for why
should Mr. thermic, express pain at his wife's ac-
cepting the loan of a gentleman's brougham, if he
knew that she was the mistress of Bowles P On the
whole, therefore, whatever weakness, folly, and
want of knowledge of the world the petitioner had
shown in allowing himself to be cajoled by Bowles's
professions of friendship, he could not see that
he had done anything to forfeit the remedy which
, the law gave him. There must therefore be a
thcree nisi ; and, of course, as the co-respondent
had abused the confidence of the petitioner to tempt
this woman back again to sin, he must pay the costs
to which Mr. Glennie had been put by such mis•
conduct.
Decree nisi with costs.
