"WAsHrNGroN. "Wednesday. April 16.

"The Executive Government INDUCES in
the hope that the British Ministry will zee the
propriety of a compliance with the demand
made in Mr.. Marcy's letter Of the 2Sth Deceln-
Der, for the recall of Mr. CHAMPION and the
three Consuls."
"Whatever may be the opinion of the press
IN New York on this subject, there is hut one
in the Senate and in the Administration, to
wit, that the British Government has, as vet,
rendered no adequate or acceptable apology
for the conduct OF her officials for the infringe
ment of our laws
"The answer OF the British Government
canuot be much longer delayed and | now
wish to say that it is Positireiy certain that
Mr.. Champion will be Immediately dismissed
in case he is not recalled, let what may be the
consequences. AS To these consequences
have II word TO say, in ooDnexion with the
the parallel case OF the dismissal OF Sir Henry
Bulwer by the Spanish Government in lS4S."
This letter bears to our minds internal ev
dence of authenticity, and we have no doubt
the writer had the best authority for his state
ments, SO far, at least, rs regards the feelings
and purposes of the Erecutire As to what
he says of the unanimily of the Senate on the
subject we must entertain some doubt-Na-

From the New Orleans Crescent, April 2
Onion Course Races.

The meeting closed yesterday with race for a
purse of $500, two mile heats for which the entries
we're Tom McGuffin Puss Farris and Undine Be
fore the start, Tom was backed freely against the
field at 500 to 800, How heavy was the fall Of
his friends will appear by what follows
FIRST HEAT.-Tom took the lead, followed by
Undine PGss Farrs bringing up the rear as though
she had no interest in the The two miles
were run out in this order, Puss just dropping in
the distance. Time, 3;544.
The betting now lively at almost any odds the
felders required. Tom backed at 800 to so
and even to $5-as his friends appeared to think
il was ''sure thing"
SECOND HEAT.-At the tap Tom again led off
Undine close after him, and on entering the back
stretch she went up along side and remained there
apparently despite his efforts through the first mile
and up 10 the first turn of the second, when she
appeared to give out.
So far in the heat Puss had been some distance
in the rear going along easy without paying much
attention either of the others. At the hrst turn
of the second mile, however, she made DASH
passed Undine and wenG at Tom. They ran for
some distance down the back stretch locked when
Tom apparently shook her off, and she dropped in
behind where she remained until on entering the
hOme-stretch she went at him again and took posi-.
ton alongside in which order they came laundering
along until about the distance stand, when the
whip freely pyed on Puss, woke her up and sent
her to the ront-winning the heat in 3:46a; Undine
dstanced.
A charge Of foul riding was entered against Puss
Farris The Judges however, dismissed it, Tom
sti the favorite, his friends backing him freely
at 800 to $40
THIRD HEAT.-At the tap, Tom took the lead and
kept it until entering the home stretch Puss was
at him, however all the time from the start to the
outcome, beating HIM by length or two in 3:49t.

THURSDAY. AUGUST 81

!TRuFH and honesty are the MODEST impulses planted
by an all-wise Creator in the human breast. In pro-
portion as a man is controlled by them does he rise or
fill in the estimation of his feliow-men. Let his word
become proverbially equivocal or his acts 1.saones.,
in any community, civilized or not, and al that he
may Go or say will bear the stamp of ftlsity. II emay
seek for credit, he may offer the guarantee of his
name, but the purity with whom lie detls viii say,
show me his security; and the amount Of security de-
manded will be just in proportion to his known char
acter. Truth and honesty should therefore control
every act between man and man.
If it is necessary between men, it is equally so in 8
public journal. Facts and truth should be the basis
of all statements made, and only in proportion as they
are true, viii they carry power and conviction with
them. Before we undertook the publication of this
journal, we were fully convinced of this, and we said
publicly that before we made any statements affect
ing persons or things we should first find the facts,
and if we made misstatements, our columns should
always be open to correct them by giving the truth.
And we repeat that the same principles shall govern
all cur future course.
By reference to another column of our paper on the
first page, it viii be seen that we have been led in
to a correspondence with Mr.. Wyllie, in which he
charges us with having defamea and cGlumniatsd his
character in the editorial published in our issue OF
last week, and in which he has threatened to bring an
action for libel In the first degree" against US and
a suit for damages. The portion offensive TO the Min
lister, is the last paragraph of the article alluded to.
The same paragraph has been unwittingly copied in
to the official organ, as its editor could not see In it
anything really libellous, and We suppose the Minis
ter will now have a double action on his hands.
