Coming EYenta.

The following is from the last issue of the
New York Independent:
"Just as we are going to press, we receive
a most important piece of information from
reliable source. 1t is nothing less than the
expressed conviction Of Nr. Se1oard that the
Government can not succeed in this aOdr; that
the C0nJederdcy arW probably be Tec0gaized
6y the European PoVers and that peace aciIL
be the result an si1ty days. In view OF this,
Mr.. Thurlow Weed has been sent to Eng
lard, and if he shall find the British Ministry
determined to recognize the Confederacy,
the Administration here will prepare at once
for peace.
at was to pave the way for this that the
discouragiDg report of Adjutant. General
Thomas was allowed TO be published. We
lave no space at this late hour to remark on
this Information, except to say that, if en-.
tiTely correct las we are positively assured) J,
it will simply break down the Administra-
ton and destroy the country"
There are, to say the least, strong proba-
blities in favor of the correctness of this in &.
formation. That majority of the members
of the Administration, the President in
cluded, have looked upon the termination of
our difficulties by the way suggested, as the
one imperatively indicated by the circum-
stances, there are many reasons to believe.
1t is the only one that is in any way con-
sistent with the policy which the Admins
tration has pursued; and is doubtless the
foundation of the often-repeated prediction
of Mr.. Seward of a speedy close of the war
There are also indications that this state Of
feeling has been, in some way, communicated
Southwardly; and in the published and un-
published conversations Of leading Southern
men, the prevalence of the idea of speedily.
coming paci6cation, by a recognition of the
independence of the Confederacy, is to b.
perceived.
By means not easily to be discussed, thu
public mind there has been preparing for it
and the indisposition of the Confederates Il
push hostilities to forcible issue in Missouri
has been by some, attributed to its influence
That this has had something to do with the
proceedings against General Fremont is, tC
say the least, probable
What effect this policy will have upon tn,
Administration or the country is a matte
upon which there will be differences o
opinion. If not ousted by military chief
tain, Vi ct GrmiS, Mr.. Lincoln will doubles
live out his term of Office in the Presidential
chair; and whether or not the country will
be destroyed, willdepend upon the question il
whatwill consist the destruction of the coun
try. We have arrived at that condition
when the question what, is expedient, ha
become almost as pressing as the question
what is right; and when it becomes a matte
ofdoubt whether the South can be subdued
it is at least safe to inquire: in case it car
not, what then is to be done?

The Coming Session Of Congress

In the course of another month Congress
will be in session, and the attention of the
people of the United States will be divided
between the operations of the military and
that of the political arena. According to
the relations of those veracious chroniclers,
tie letter writer's the Capital City is already
exhibiting premonitory symptoms of the
coming period of Congressional activity in
the influx of politicians from all parts of the
Union-as is an Union-and in those pre-
liminary discussions, in bar rooms and other
places of general resort, which toreshadow
the schemes of Congress members, and those
official debates in which the assembled wis
dom delights to exercise itself.
1t is questionable whether the coming
session of Congress will exhibit as great q
Cegree of unanimity ofsentiment as appeared
at the last. The range of topics will be con-
sderably wider, as the restraint to measures
for q particular purpose, enforced in July
will be no longer operative. In the larg,
number of subjects which will come up fo
discussion, there will be occasions enougl
for disagreement; nor, with the general dis
trust which is felt toward the Adminstra
tion, can it be expected that even its recon-
mendations will pass without scrutiny AM
opposition.
1t will be somewhat unusual, but not un
der the circumstances matter Of astonish
ment, if the Administration should fin,
Itself in a minority of its own party. Th
general conduct of the war, the failure of tn
Government to come up to the ideas of th
people in its prosecution, and the position i
which it has placed itself in respect to Gen
eral Fremont, will open fields for discussion
which can not but have the effect to pre-
duce heat and probably embarrassment

The intrenchments are of the most sub

A war correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal writes as follows about the batteries in
the vicinity Of Bndds Ferry
The Potomac Is at this place not far from
tive miles wide, with the main channel run
ming close TO the Virginia shore. The banks
upon the Virginia side are much like those
upon the eMaryland-alow plateau, with high
wood. crowned hills beyond. The batteries
are placed in commanding positions. Oi-
rectly opposite the ferry is the Shipping
Point battery Of six guns-two heavy siege
guns; 94-pounders, from the Norfolk Navy
yard, and four 32-pounders. Half q mile
down stream, at Evansport, is second bat
terry, incomplete, but designed, as | can see
by close observation with my glass, to mount
eight guns. The rebels are putting one in
position on this battery to day. They have
erected shears and there are pulleys and
chains. | can distinctly see man managing
the ropes. A dozen soldiers are standing on
the parapet of the well-constructed work,
looking now toward the Maryland shore,
and now upon those who are at work upon
the guns. Above them floats the rebel flag
with its broad bars of red, white and blue,
and its diminished field of stars. .. +
Still further down the river is third bats
terry Of three guns, while beyond, opposite
Port Tobacco, are other batteries, containing
know not how many guns. Above ship
ping Point, in the woods upon the bluff there
is an embankment of earth which is increas-
ing hourly in size. By close observation
can catch indistinct glimpses of men at work
and embrasures for two heavy guns. 1t is on
higher ground than that upon which Mr..
Posey's house is situated. In day or two
we may expect to see the trees cut away, and
then we shall be saluted by a shell without
doubt. It is two and half miles distant,
but the house will be q fine target, and by
suitable elevation there is no reason why
they may not drop the uncomfortable visitors
at our doors, which would be more interest
ing than agreeable. At the base of the hill
Quantico Creek joins the Potomac, and i'm
mediately behind the long tongue Of land is
the steamer George Paige, andt two schOoners
which the rebels have captured. The smoke
of innumerable camp fires rises along the
Quantico, showing that there is large force
screened from observation by the woods. At
house upon the hillside squad of rebels
are posted, some lying on the ground, some
summing themselves beneath hay-stacks, and
some saunteripg down to the batteries. On
the shore half dozen soldiers are washing
their clothes. An officer occasionally gsllops
along the road. Such is the general picture
from my lookout in the garden.

EXODUS OF SLAvERY.-Slavery is vanishing
from Missouri more rapidly even than its
enemies predicted. Secession has made the
State too hot for the institution, and Seces-
sionists are daily leaving the State for the
South, with their slaves, to escape the very
dangers they themselves madly provoked.
We argued, six months ago, that secession,
or attempted secession in Missouri, would
overthrow slavery in the State, and hurry
the institution to its doom. But the Seces.
sionists would not listen to US. They are
now verifying our predictions by fleeing with
their slaves from the consequences Of theil
own folly.-St Louis NeS0S.
