VOLUNTEER COMPANIES FORMING IN AL

telegraph has informed us that two recruiting
offices were yesterday opened in New York
''to enroll the names Of those DESTROYS of par
ticipating in war with Spain, should the ex-
isting difficulties lead to that result" Major
Farnsworth was in town yesterday, and made
application to Gov. Clark for commission.
but we did not learn with what success 1t
is stated that there will be two recruiting agen-
cies opened here in few days. The Legion,
it would seem are determined to be early in
the held, IN taking such prompt steps in view
OF the probabilities of war. But should war
result with Spain, we have no hesitancy in
saying that the New York volunteers would
earn quite as much fame as have the gallant
band who left this State, and fought at Cerro

What Disturbs England Just Now.

The honneurs of the last week are divided
between Nesselrode's circular Manteufels
note, and Girardin's pamphlet called Peace.
may say that the two first named diploma
tic papers, highly important as they are, have
by far, not excited such deeply laid sensation
of half astonishment and half anxiety in
English political circles as one single passage
Il should say, one single word in that
pamphlet. NJ. Girardin's talismanic sentence
is Gibraler. There will be no lasting peace,
says he, except on one condition the insist
ing by France and Austria on the mutual and
simultaneous disarm;ng of Sebastopol and
Gbralter as the first step to the emancipation
of all seas, straits, rivers, &c. You cannot
form any idea of the impression this passage
has provoked. Not that there should be any
immediate danger TO be expected. but be-
cause the hint that such thing as the dis
arming of Gibralter, could ever be insisted
upon, came to the mind Of John Bull as an
undreamt of idea. He never thought of
such an eventuality being possible at all, and
is quite bewildered to hear that others - the
nasty foreigners" the id French think
of It
1t was, to be sure, very unkind cut of
M. Girardin's, to be so disagreeable towards
his ally, as to tell him such thing so hurting
to his feelings as gentleman" 1t was such
a nice dream to have Sebastopol razed-the
Russian feet burnt-the Black Sea ruled by
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Cronsfadt and Revel taken
and destroyed also 1t was gratifying to
muse over the idea that having once done
with Russia's naval power, England may, on
some future day, for the disinterested protec-
ton of some sick man, enter into an alliance
with Prussia and Russia against France, and
destroy Cherbourg, Brest, Toulon, with the
French feet included. And 10, there comes
Mr.. Girardin, and shakes Mr.. Bull out of his
reverie by telling him that Gibralter must be
disarmed at the same time as Sebastopol.-

DEFALcATIoNs IN HIGH LIFE-ScHUYLER
AMONG THE ARIsTocRAcY OF ENGLAND.-The
Hou. F. Villiers has, it appears, suddenly
disappeared, leaving an amount of debt close
upon million Of dollars, for some portion of
which he alone was responsible, though for
the larger part many of his young, noble
friends and confreres of the sporting world are
liable. Francis Villiers is the fourth son of
the Earl of jersey, who has filled various
offices of State, and held the post of Master
Of the Horse under the last government of
Sir Robert Peel. His mother is one of the
principal partners in the old banking house of
"Childes," and has long been celebrated as
the acknowledged leader of the par excellence
fashionable society of London. She held the
Office of Mistress of the Robes to the Queen,
under the Peel administration; and it was
chiefly in the strong personal objection of the
Queen to having Lady jersey about her per-
son, that what was termed ''the Palace Bed
chamber Plot originated. which induced
Peel in '39 to decline forming an administra-
ton, and which had the effect of rendering
Victoria unpopular for time.
Mr.. Villier's eldest brother, Viscount VIII
Tiers, was married subsequently to Sir Robert
PEEPS eldest daughter. Another brother was
married to Miss Ginkle, heiress to the Ath-
lone estates. His elder sister, Lady Sarah
Villiers, recently deceased, was the wife of
Prince Esterhezy, and has left several chill
dren. Another sister, Lady Adela, created,
some few years since, perfect tumult in the
veins OF fashionable society, by clipping with
Capt. Ibbetson, an officer in Lord Cardigan's
18th Hussars. The only remaining sister,
Lady Clementina, is unmarried. She is wo-
man of great personal beauty and singularly
thoroughbred air. and has been for several
seasons the belle of fashionable London life.
The high connections of Mr.. Villiers, related
as he is to most of the aristocratic families of
England, will no doubt lend to this escapade,
particularly at a moment when aristocracy is
scanned with such jealous scrutiny, an inter-
est and excitement which it hardly deserves,
and would not otherwise obtain.
PREsBYTERIANs AND TEMPERANCE.-In an
swer to certain overtures made by the church
at Harrodspurg to the Presbytery of Tran
sylvania recently in session at Danville, the
following official views upon temperance were
given by that body:
lst-lt is a violation Of the Sabbath. and
consequently proper subject for discipline,
for tavern-keeper to sell ardent spirits on
that day.
2d-The habitual business of dealing in in
toxicating drinks as a beverage, by church
member, Is so great source of temptation to
society, so great an offence against charity,
and so total disregard to the character of the
church Of Christ, that it ought not to be per-
sisted in, and ought rot to be allowed.
