On Saturday, our troops took possession Of

Yankees on Friday; and, when our forces
approache / 1t on Saturday, the Yankees gave
good evidence Of fieetness In double quick
movements out of our reach-not gun was
fired.
The faderals who were killed and wounded

We have had the pleasure Of an interview
with Mr.. Fry. Of Alabama, who arrived In
our city day or two ago. after visit Of
some months to England. Mar, Fry came In
the same ship with Mr.. Bisbie, of Norfolk,
to one Of the West India Islands, where MIR.
Rishie is siili detained. Their voyage was
al unusually long one, having left England
on the sth of November. Hut even At tha,
early period, the sympathy OF ali classes in
England with the South was universal and
air. Ianeey expressed the opinion that Eng.
land Woaia ne at war with the United States
IN hiry days. On the arrival Of their YES
sci In The West Indies. q few days ago, the
oaptalh OF All English gun-boat informed
f"f' z ~ that orders had been received for the
briash neet in the West India waters, mum.
eering some eighty vessels of.war, Ia larger
number than the whole regular U. S. Navy.)
to rendezvous at Havana; an order which
WAS understood TO be In conseq uence of the
state OF affairs growing out Of the outrage
upon the Trent. as a IA rther exhibit ton of
tho spirit OF the British people, we learn from
our informant that, shortly before he left the
West India port referred to- some suspicion
having been awakened of the in tentions of a
Yankee gun boat to attack q Confederate
vessel then lying in the harbor, the batteries
IN the port were put In al instant in q state OF
preparation for firing upon the gun-boat. and
tho garrison-five hundred men--sere kent
up all night. awaiting the attack. We also
learn from Mr. Fry that. whom he lett Eng.
land, fleet OF merchant steamers were in
readiness TO take immediate advantage Of the
breaking of the blockade, and open I'D a
lively trade with the southern States. We
are indebted TO MIR. Fry and MIR. Hisbie for a
large number of English papers.

1t is the first original book Of a miescella-
neous character published in the Confederate
States since the organization Of our indie
pendent Government, and 1T Ia no less grace
fully than appropriately dedicated 10 our IRIS,
President.
For such a publication, in exposition of tn
crisis and of Southern political philosophy, it
would be supererOgation to bespeak public
favor, especially as its contents will warrant
general patronage and appreciation
The following are Communications by gem

att discusses with rare ability and learning
The institution of slavery in all its aspec ts as
well as the social and political distinctions
between the people OF tbs Confederate States
and those of the United States. The style Is
ornate, glowing and eloquent. We predict
that it will produce a sensation, take its
place among standard literature, and have
the effect OF banishing from our midst the
hurtful offspring of the morbid and prolific
press Of the North"

"We have read portions of tho manuscript,
and we pronounce it beautiful, excellent, an d
conclusive. We hope that it will obtain the
