VERY POLITE Just now, with ten millions
6f specie going out of the country where three
come in, with Northern industry paralyZed, and
at time when general indignation is rapid
ly gathering ut the infamous political OPP
preston which has caused this some Of our
temporarieS are beginning to notice, with sim
cerc pleasure" much better feeling in the
South as regards the Union. 10 be sure they
notice it: now is the time of all times to observe
that phenomenon. For many years our cotton
friends have had nothing but constant prosPrr-
tv. To keep a few thousand gentlemen in aristO
cratic ease, and enable their relatives to fill the
leading offices in the gift Of the government,
our millions Of operatives have been kept poor,
and often on the brink of starving. Now that
people are beginning to awake, and especially
now that the feeling mt the North in reference
B,rruPvr" seem To SHOW that our sym
pathy is with Piedmont, and consequently likely
in the long run to be opposed TO England, we find
the fire eaters becoming very sweet indeed, and
strongly opposed to those imprudent and in
temperate friends of the institution who so to O
far. II is quite time for the tiattcry and oily
words Of CANNON to be applied. The last panic
drove this country to the very verge of protcc-
tor, ana did more to render men indifferent To
dsunion than slavery ever did, and should fresh
distress, during the coming summer or fall,
burst over us, then the cotton rniScrS and their
English allies may look out. Perhaps Mir. Blu
chanan'S party may yet discover that it would
|
up for Il little willie. y stitch in time saves nine.
BY and by there will come the wolf in earnest,
and it will go mp never to come down, and we
shall stand alone, strong and discnihralIcd, the
most truly independent and the most cnVahc
nation on the face Of the earth.
Decidedly these are not the times TO provoke
the virtual majority, and those are wise who
SnuO the Great Convention. Meanwhile let all
the enemies of American industry look out for
themselves. Through all the clouds ar"umd we
can see better times coming!

WAE--Wc are obliged again, and it viii be for
the last time, to give the most unqualified denial
To the statements Inadc i'll letter signed, "a
Wing of 1877" and published in the London
Ne'oS The writer rancwS the assertions madc
hist week hy that journal, and related by us in
the HcTUG-namey, that "therc has been an
understanding on the part of our government
with Prussia since january last" that "our
Cabinet began these secret arrangements and
set the example these illicit understandings"
We reply that England has no understanding,
no arrangement, ayrcG1aeRt rcAHiCEcr, aoriitcn
or oe'dnJ, expressed o. implicit, acth Prussia or
gag other country respecting ANY eventuatics
whatever which may result from the present
war. We affirm this with an absolute kuowl-
edge Of the facts, and should the reverse be
again asserted, we shall not repeat our denial,
because we shall then know that the invention
is made for an unworthy purpose.
The Independence Beiye mentions n rumor
that explanations had been asked of the French
Government by England as to phrase in the
Imperial manifesto, which, i'll anticipating the
independence of Italy ito the Adriatic," implies
the entire abrogaion Of the treaties of 1915; and
it adds that the explanations offered by France
had appeared sufficient at London and that
better understanding prevailed between the two
Powers
