courage of Captain Britton, under the circumstances,

asserts that he openly took active part in the rebel-
lion against the Government, whose commission he
held. The correspondent then hauls the Consul'
General of London over the coals. That able officer,
the Hon. Freeman Morse, he believes, was a good
second-rate Congressman and a faithful adherent Of
Senator Fessenden. He alludes to a report that Mt
Morse has made a fortune by commercial enterprizo
during his term, and is an owner of ships sail :14

any attempt to cut the Gordian knot by hurling the
two foremost nations of the world into the blool
