Mr. EDITOR That the laborer Is worthy of bis
hire, II nothing else, 10 maxim well established
throughout the world.
Captain Darling, the subject Of this little no.
tice, who lately resigned his Office at the House
Of Representatives on account of his wishing to
do his duty there In an impartial manner, has
certainly, If any man has, done his duty to his
party by working for It's success, as we all well
know, for years, without firing or without rest
Really 1t is to be hoped that justice will be done
him from the right quarter, and that he may, at
least, find that gratitude which he deserves from
those who can show IT, Without entering into
the merits Of his peculiar case, II mean, his re-
signing his ofice,) no one can doubt Of his being
as ct . person to superintend the door Of the
House of Representatives as any one else, with
out exception, and perheps better; and It 10 also
evidently true that he deserved 1t, and would have
had the position, had It not been for some unseen
causes which largely operated against and event.
uslly defeated him. But injustice has been done
him, and those who may have some concern for
him, yet, will find that he was not treated right.
sincerely hope that the nsxt Administration
will have the manliness to purge the different
public Offices Of the Get now in them, and that,
independent of parties being Republicans, other
qualifications shall be required for office, such as
capacity, re.peetabiy Of character, sobriety, and
last, though not least, striet attention to truth

PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-The NJ T. Tribune
correspondence in yesterdays paper says:
"The Pacific railroad bill will be called up
on Tuesday; but the third route imposed by
the Senate, and Mr.. Craig's amendment super
added in the House,sare staggering loads to
carry in the present condition Of the Treasury.
1t will therefore fail this session."
II it fails from the addition of the Northern
road, it would also fail without the Northern
road and 80, as it would seem, must fail in
any shape. But We hope better things.

Fof course, borrowing in the open market
and upon ordinary principles is out Of the
question, aud the resort is to coercion, in va

this is proceeding at rate which must utterly

rho Po.Ilion or neInunre.

The Legislature of Delaware has been convened
in extraordinary session. Gov. Barton has sent in
his message which relates entirely to the national
troubles and the position of the State in relation
thereto. The message opened as follows
at is with unfeigned regret that cannot address
you with the usual congratulations the peace,
prosperity and happiness of the country; but not
withstanding it is unfortunately involved in civil
war. one of the most dePorabe calamities that can
befsl any country, we have great reason to render
thanks to the Ruler of the Universe that Delaware
is not the scene Of action, and that we are not in
the midst of its horrors and terrible raVages."
q Our citizens have acted in manner highly cred>
liable 10 them, and well deserve the quiet they
have enjoyed. Those, if there be any, and doubt
less there are some everywhere, whose symps
thes incline to the South, are quiescent laying no
impediments in the way of the Government, nor
afording its enemies any sort Of sid. Some of the
innumerable rumors aflost throughout the country
may, perhaps, represents different state Of things
but the test of truth properly applied 10 these
reports, most of them would be found wholly un.
reliable" .
The Governor declines to discuss the causes
that led to the war, and proceeds to, recommend
the enactment of such laws as are rendered neces-
sary by the direct taxa ton laws of lhe late extra
session of Congress.

The Prospect for tho winter.

The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sua writes -..-
The Federal troops on this side of the Potomac,
and perhaps on the other, preparing to 60 into
winter quarters 1t is known, also, that the Con-
federate forces Centrevle are going into W n
ter quarters. On both sides one great point in ar
will be thus gained; that is, to maintain positions
Neither party will risk battle unless under cir
cumstances that would render victory more I'D.
vsntsgeous than defeat would be disadvantages
Gus. This last named condition of battle is laid
down in treatise on war by Gen. Hslleck as
maxim. Yesterday, twelve thousand troops, under
General Sumner, crossed over and took position
on the left of General BeDker's Division.
No active operations in the West are expected
during the winter. The Federal armada, preparing
to sweep down the Mississippi begins to attract at
tention by Its formidable proportions, which are
to equal those of the Port Royal expedition.
The war cannot be expected, under any eircum-
stances, to terminate suddenly and soon.

The British ConsuI's Accsunt of the Cap
Iure OF messrs Mason md SIIdeII.

Correspondence Of the New York Herald.
HAVANA, New. 22.-The news by the Eaglish
steamer, which arrived here this morning from ST
Thomas, has thrown the whole city in q state of
great excitement. 70 -..---
By this time of course the news of the captIfe of
Messrs. Sldell and Mason with their Secretaries is
DID, but we have heard nothing OF it until this morn
ing. The British Consul was kind enough to read
me the official dispatch he received in relation to
the affair from the officer in charge of the msis on
board the Treht That gentleman's version Of the
adalr briefly that the steamer Trent left Havana
on the 18th inst. On the following day steamer
was observed nearing him, which presently fred q
round shot across the bows of the Trent. whereup-
on the latter hoisted her flag and continued on her
way shortly afterwards a shell exploded at about
half cables length from her, upon which she hove
to. The stranger showed flag until about the
time the shell was fred, and it was then discovered
that she was an American. r-
Presently party of marines, under command
of q Lieutenant, came along side the Trent aud the
officers, on boarding her, demanded a list of her
passengers, which the captain refused. The for~
mer then stated that be had positive knowledge
that hessrs. Mason and Slidell with their secre-
taries, Messrs. Eustis and Mcfarland were on
board that he had orders to arrest them, and, if
necessary, use force. The party Immediately sur
rendered themselves, under protest. the captain
joining in the protest. The Federal officer wanted
to take the captain of the Trent. but for some
reason or other refraiHed and both steamers went
their respective ways. The whole affair occupied
but few minutes, and occurred at about three
O'Clock in the afternoon. .-
Southerners, Southern sympathisers aud English
men, are apparently rejJiced at the event. The
former because il may bring about an immediate
war with Great Britain, which will relieve the
blockade of Southern ports and the latter because
they hope /" the Yankees will be made to pay for |
their insoleuce. . -
