ITEM MADE OUT OK NOTHING of the hob
bies Of the London Times, and other dailies of
the great English metropolis, is to abuse the
American Press for its falsehood and unprin.
cipled corruption. Yet in the London Morning
Star, just received, is a paragraph, (of q kind
which frequently occurs, afixing to their own
foreheads the conviction of habit Of faIsehood
wholly unknown in our country. The contra
diction Of q paragraph manufactured out and
out, merely for news" is thus given:
"In reference to a paragraph which has
gone the round of most Of the newspapers, to
the effect that an inquest was held at the
Royal Sceptre Hotel, Chertsey, before Mr..
Woods, Coroner tor Surrey, on Miss Angelina
Caroline Bosanqust, daughter Of the late
Admiral Bosanquet, who committed suicide
by taking laudanum, with particulars Of evil
dence and names Of witnesses and relatives,
Mr.. Samuel Bosanquet, of Dirgeston Court,
near Monmouth, writes: have caused inquiry
TO be made Of Mr.. Woods, who is, in truth, the
Coroner for Surrey, and the reply is that Mr..
Woods has held no such inquest; that there is
no such hotel as the Royal Sceptrs, nor any such
medical man as Mr.. Germaine, (theone named, }
at Chertsey; and that there is no other
Chertsey. There neUer uas an admiral Boson-
quet; and I can say that there neper ,oas an
angelina Caroline Bosanquet. The other names
mentioned, viz: Miss Amelia Jane Harrington,
daughter of the late Colonel Harrington, (the
cousin,) and the Hon. Mrs Fortescue, the
aunt and Captain Beaufoy, seem to be equally

The American COngress-Our Hope for
the Union Is In the West.

To-day tho American Congress assemblies
under circumstance of moro than usual del
icscy. Most of the far-reaching statesmen,
the wel-tried patriots, are no longer the
peoples oouuselors. Excitement pervades the
ranks of party, the representatives of which
are almost evenly divided In the U. S. House
OF Representatives. We have no other SEQ
tonal prejudices than those which true pat
rotism and wise foresight admonish US may
be used for the permanent welfare Of the whole
nation for the establishment Of more perfect
Union Of these Confederate States. We have
strong convictions of the power and Importance
of the West in tho approaching Congress.
The progressive march of this great Union, to
which we all should keep step to a truly ma
tlonal music, has brought the representation
Of the West TO have an influential deciding
vote in the councils Of the Nation. The two
words North and South have been so used or
abused as to convey sectional antsgonistic
relation.
Not SO with the word West--it Is one Of
stamina, stability, hope, assurance, patriot
ism. The extremities have at last found out
that the West ia the backbone of the Union.
We pretend to have no influence or connec-
ton with mere parties, but profess to have an
undoubted right TO appeal to the Western
members Of Congress to overlook mere par
tisan considerations, both in the organization
Of the House and in subsequent business, so
ss to command the respect and secure the
support Of other portions Of the peoples 8
strength; in the hrst place to promote har-
mony in this beloved Union, and to recognize
and properly provide for the great interests
of tho West. The promotion of harmony
between the North and South, we believe, does
not depend upon Legislative "provisos," or
mere distractions, but in the immediate
amendment of the Fugitive-slave Law, the
severity of which keeps the non -slaveholdng 6
States in continual fret. The law can Re
effectively carried out on a plan that has met
the approval Of the most distinguished states.
men of the South. That plan will be refer
red TO in another article.

AN ANEcDOTE OF GENERAL SCoTr-"DON'r

of Gen. Scott: In the heat Of one Of the most
desperate battles in Mexico, the General saw
a critical point where an advantage was likely
dangerous movement. He sl eallOpod ap t.nu /" ono
of the officers of volunteer corps, and gave
the order. The man was willing enough, but,
while gathering up his reins, he remarked, In
tho most savory drawl of Yankee dialect:
"Well, ii doos seem to me that could haypc
done better a little while ago" "Sir," thun-
dcred out the General, the words are does and
have. You've only twenty minutes to live,
and, for Gods sake don't die with such horrible
pronunciation in your mouth" and waving
his hand 10 the astonished captain with i'm
perative repetition of his order by gesture, the
splendid horscman galloped of to follow up
his victory in another crisis Of the battle.
