MR. CORDEN.

The reply of Mr.. Golden to Lord John
Russell, was one of the ablest efforts OF thai
strong minded and independent British repre-
sentative. He does not confne himselfto an
attack upon Lord Johns extraordinary
course, but condemns the ministry for not
embracing the opportunity offered by Lord
John for the restoration of peace. He de-
clares that the Cabinet has not only plunged
England into useless wal, but one the danger
and difficulty of which they seem utterly in
competent to understand. He denies that
the Cabinet, in renewing the war, have tax en-
the necessary steps to bring it to successful
issue He says that if members would use the
same language in public, or in the House,
which he has heard them use in private in
the lobbies the war would be soon brought
to an end. He regards the idea of England
humbling Russia with its sixty millions of
inhabitants and inexhaustible raw material
for troops, as preposterous. As to France,
he says, the truth is confirmed by every
member of the House who has lately come
from that country, that the war is not popu-
lar in France, that it never has been popular
there, and is now Odious.
aft" saws Mr.. Golden, 81 wanted a proof of
this could find 1t In the address of the Emperor
of The French lately made to bis Chambers, for 1t
contains the following omlnous paragraph:-My
Government will propose to you to vote the annual
recruitment BILL there will be NO extraordinary
levy and the bill will take the usual courss neces-
sary for the regularity of the administration of
recruitment bill Why was the Emperor care
full to state that he was not gOing to make any ex.
traordinary levy of soldien9 Why. because he
knows that 10 The only part of France where his
main strength Is viz, among the peasantry of the
provinces, ii he had attempted an extraordinary
levy OF men such q measure would depopulsriZe
him with the people on whom he has relied for his
power. But 10 this the way to carry on war with
Russian Did Napoleon l. do sol Had he not an
army of 500 600 men, with an army In reserve of
$780, 900 meL9 tell the Emperor of France as
tell you that If you invade Russia, and fight her
on her own SOIL you must, If you intend to bring
the war TO successful Issue, have extraordinary
levies OF men both In France and England (Hear,
hear) When you see the Emperor of Russia is-.
suing his ukases, and bySoEe stroke OF his pen
ordering levy of $50 600 men, do you think that
you can carry on successful contest with him
with 10000 men, or that you can do without hav-
ing an extraordinary levy of troops.
Mr.. Golden declares that the enlistment of
troops is at present in the most unsatisfactory
state, and that as to Sebastopol, the ministry
are wasting the best blood of England in the
attempt to do that which every high military
authority,-Sir Howard Douglas, Sir w.
Napier and others,-declare is hopeless, until
the fortress is invested and besieged, accord
ing to the invariable rules of war.

Biting of their Noses.

The St. Joseph Democrat thus talks Of the
effect upon that city by the outrsges com
mitled by Missourians. 1t says:--
We have lately couversed with gentle
man from the East who speaks with author.
ity, who says that since the recent troubles
in Kansas. along the Missouri border, and
the bitter hostility manifested towards the
Eastern Emigrants, arrangements have been
made by which the tide OF settlers from the
New England States, New York and Penn
sylvania, will hereafter pass into Kansas
through southern Iowa.
This will be a serious loss 10 our mer-
chants, manufacturers, steamboat men, and
our people living along the Missouri river
The profits arising from the emigrant trade
have been immense to our city, and the
policy of one portion of Missour.ans, who
haze thus driven thousands OF dollars from
our doors, has been one of TIE most hurtful
we can conceive of. The money which has
been borne to our doors upon this tide of
emigration will now be diverted to enrich
the Northwest, and its cities of Chicago
and Burlington. We have always felt in a
measure secure against the rivalry of our
northern neighbors as long as our ports
were open and our rivers freee to the thous-
ands of the human family who yearly seek
the regions OF the west, but we confess now.
since our State has been so falsely represen.
ted and scandalized by Atchison and his
rulfian gang, that there is danger in store
fOr us. Settlers will avoid the Missouri
river when its banks hold set of men who
are sworn foes to emigration. They will
avid our city where some of our journals
and portion of our inhababitants sympa'
thze with and encourge these lawless hor
des, and it becomes our merchants, our
steamboatmen, and the eDterprsing of our
State, who can truly appreciate the value
of Kansas emigration, and to whom its loss
will be incalculable, to look ABOUT, lay th'
blame upon the proper persons, and strive
BY every means into their power, to rid'
themselves of such deadly foes to their bes
interests, and the escutcheon Of the Slate o
such a disgrace. AS long as Atchison ant
his followers hold places Of public trust Of
power, and WELD their destructive influence
to betray the Union--breed civil discord
and an insult and opposition" to emigration
through our States, SO long will We suffer
not only the modification of bad name
but such losses in all the department o
trade, that have built US up to a great city
as will cripple and reiard our progress

More Know Nothing Secrets out
Letter from Tom Spooner.

The Statesman Of the 18th instant pub
lish the report of Tom Spooner, the Presi-
dent Of the State Council Of Know Nothings
in Ohio. 1t is dated Cincinnati, June 9th,
and occupies four columns. The most of
it is mere balderhash and falsebood which
has been over and over again refuted by
ihe Democratic press: 1t is the opinion OF
"High Priest Tom" that the novelty of our
Know Nothing movement is no longer a
source of perplexity to our opponents, nor
has it any longer the charm to lure those
who are ever ready to be led away by any
new or novel movement.
Spooner thinks it would be wise to drop
the nativity business, and 60 il on the re-
ligous test alone. He is terribly down on
foreigners, among whom we are to class bis
father or grandfather, terming them all as
"dregs of society,"" degraded" glitter
ate" and Impoverished" criminal outcasts
In his judgement, they are only fit to be
ruled over by Know Nothing polltica
mountebanks. au
Spooner is equally down on the German
Freemen and Turner'S, most Of whom voted
for him last fall, and tlrms their ideas o
government and religion "Atheist agrarlar
NONSENSE" and says they (the Freemen
"reiect all Suthority but their own will, dis
eordant socialism" He further adds:
"a very considerable more expense ma
been incurred than was contemplated
the last session; yet all these expenses hav'
been met by the current receipts, and tn
State Council is free Of debt, except th
taxes levied by the National Council, an
this could have been readily met had nc
the funds that had accumulated previous
that session unfortunately been deposlte'
by our Treasurer with one Of the bank'n
houses Of Cincinnati that we're forced int
J liquidation during the momentary crisis
/ the past season. +" n
We fully indorse the following concludin
comment Of the Statesman, which says!

struggle for liberty. And are the people of
Connecticut prepared to adopt such princi'
pies as these-principles which are at war
with the the machinery of American gov
ernmenl? We have too much confidence
in their intelligence and honor to believe
they will long submit to this wrong. We
feel confident that there are at this time
thousands in the order who are similarly
situated to ourselves, and who already see
that its influence is for evil, upon every in
terest in our country. We know of many
in other parts of the State who feel with US
in this matter, AMI who are resolved to
come out and wash their hands of this foul
and disgraceful business.
The foregoing is a brief statement Of facts
no argument is needed to add to It's force or
or develop more clearly, while it ostracizes
all those born in foreign land, draws into
its foils thousands Of honest unsuspecting A
mericans, and then attempts TO reduce them
to condition Of servitude, strip them oI
individuality degrade them to the position oI
mere machines, and compel them at the bid
ding of their masters to disobey the dictates
of their conciences, surrender their own
thoughts into the keeping of others. and yio-
late their oaths of allegiance 20 the State oI
Which they are citizens.
Others may choose to submit to such a
trocious despotism, but as for ourselves, we
denounce it as contrary to the genius of our
institutions, at war with freedom of thought
and deserving the open denunciation of ev
cry true American. .... ....

THOUGHTS FOR 'AMEGICA ANS.
BY STELLA.

And can it be, Americans,
That stealthily ye creep
To dark some dens where bats and owls
Their midnight vigials kept
That like guilty thing ye shun
The honest light of day,
And when night pales before the sun,
Trembling ye stink awayl
That there, with quivering lip and tongue,
A wretched oath ye take,
Which none but traitors ere could keep,
But which ye dare not break
And bind yourselves, by lying vows,
Nothing to know that's true
But any thing to aid your plans
With willing hearts to GO.
And We swear to rob your brother
OF that treasure we will prize
More highly than aught 9th or
We possess beneath the skies
The right he has of serving God
In the way his conscience calls,
AMI yet OF standing high thou
In his countTy's honored halls.
And ye swear to spurn from this free land
The stranger weak and worn,
Who sesks, like bird with dropping wing,
Shelter from wind and storm;
And he flies to this. our far famed shore,
As home for the poor oppressed,
But ye thrust him back with curse and blow
To seek elsewhere for rest.
Oh, shamc where is thy foulest blush,
When deeds of sucn dark fame
Are daily done throughout our land,
In freedoms i'll used name!
And ye, so-called Americans,
Profane no more that sound;
"Know Nothings'' ftly are w called
Who by snch oaths are bonnd.
