Brussels Pipers to the 20th reached us ,tl►il
muruing, and supply a few extracts for a Faced'

iug column. They call for no remaik from tlio
but a repetition of the statement originally and
exclthively given in Tim SUN, that there never

The American Journals, to the 18th fil"
nish us with an ex-parte account of the affair of
the Firebrand; and we need not say how very
problematical is the truth of American erparbl
statements. Intelligence received from America('
Captains during the late War, even respecting, lo"
different matters in which they were not 002-
selves concerned, was almost invariably found
,to •.
be so erroneous, that " Yankee news" became

then, a still stronger portion of faith is necessary

to iMduce a belief in the accuracy of their rePrem
