SFECULATIoNs ON The Result OF WAR -
Various opinions have been advanced in the
newspapers, not only as TO the probability OF
war between the United States and England
bat in regard to the issue of the contest. In
respect to the latter the Hagerstown News, az
ter giving various suggestions as to the amount
of injury which would be inflicted upon each
country, remarks-'thcn again they would
blockade our ports, probably burn every city
that could be safely approached on the sea-
board, and we should be the greatest sufferers
There can be no doubt that such result would
tAHIct deep and lasting injury upon this coun-
try-and yet the News is disposed to consider
it as a matter of little Importance, for it con-
tinues-"the conflict will not cripple oar
strength, but on the contrary, will develope our
resources; and, with sclf-augmentng power
will soon place the whole continent of Ameri-
ca beyond the least apprehension from Euro
pean ambition or aggression" This appears
10 Us to be strange mode of reasoning; and
If It be correct, then the destruction of the sea-
ports would be Of direct advantage to the coun-
try, for it would 'develope our resources and
'placc the whole continent OF America beyond
the least apprehension from European ambi-
ton or aggression This would be bringing
good ont Of evil with vengcance; but we
would rather not see experiment tried, lest we
should not derive from it all the benefits anti
clpated. We are glad that the News concludes
with the expression of hope, "that safe and
cautious policy will be pursued on both sides,
and we may with honor avoid any interruption
Of those pacific relations, which we have for
SO many years uninterruptedly enjoyed" tits
safer to rely on peace for the development Of
our resources and the increase Of our strength,
than to hope for them by the destruction of our
sea-rorts: hence we cordially unite with the
News in the hope expressed.
The next arrival from England will probably
bring more decisive indication Of the temper
and disposition Of the British government on the
subject of war between the two nations. If
the British government has succeeded in conci-
iating OConnell, the influence of the latter
will probably be thrown in favor of war with
the United States for he has repeatedly exhib-
tied the desire to chastlse us for daring to hold
have war, we can have no objection to having
the invading army led by the potent Daniel
O'Connell--but we venture to predict, that
saold he come, he will repent not having re-
NAMED at home to take care of the repeal rent.

Mas. CAvpLE. The lectures of this very
respectable and energetic lady, as published in
the London Punch, are remarkably popular in
the United States; and we were somewhat
startled few days ago On receiving a note an
nouncing her arrival in Baltimore, ACCOMPANIED
by lecture to her husband on joining some
clab. We resolved not to act hastily in pub
fishing this important arrival, lest it might
prove to be premature-and we are glad that
we deliberated, as it appears that the old LADY
is still engaged in London in the laudable effort
of cndeavoring to reform her husband, Should
she ever desire to change her residence, we shall
be pleased to see her select Baltimore as he
place of abode, as her example might be usefu
in teaching the wives of our city how to max
their husbands "mark time" We want a
least one Mrs Caudle here, for unfortunate
our ladies are too mild, kind-hearted and sloy
of speech, to defend and protect their rights
and, as to ruling husband, or delivering cur
tain lectures, they understand nothing what
ever of such ma'ters-not they
