The AmerjcGR having become suddenly con-
WINGED that it is its 'religous duty TO examine
'candidly but fearlessly the acts of the authori-
cites, has been endeavoring 10 discharge the novel
obligation it has assumed by ibelling the authori-
ties almost every day during the past week. 1t
has asserted that they made the outbreak in this
city, on the 10Th ult. 'tle preface for practical
revolution, and that the powers given for the PEE
servation Of the peace of the city, were by them

to follow up its previous assaults by making more

property and property of the United States and hold the
same? Have they not in their possession a large

1t will be remembered that reference was made
during the month Of March last to the report of
ANGUS W. MCDONALD, ESQ, the commissioner
appointed By the State of Virginia to procure
evidence concerning the location Of the ORIGINAL
boundary lines between that and the adjoining
States. The endeavor5 of Mr.. MCDONALD to OBJ
tain possession of the original grant We're entirely
truitless, although he succeeded in finding out
and obtaining an interview with the representa-
tive of the family of Lord BALTIMORE in whose
hands were other important family papers, He
claimed, however, to have obtained other use
full information bearing upon the point, the effect
of which would be to entirely change the present
line between Virginia and Maryland, and give to
the former State not only the whole of the Poto-
mac river, but also large portion of Allegheny
county. 1t is hardly to he supposed that there
would even be an attempt to make so great an
alteration IN boundary line which has been ac-
kho"ie"geu Tor SO long period Of time. If
however, the matter should ever become subject
either of litigation or treaty in IN, absance of
the original grant, no evidence can be mora i'm,
portant than lines based upon actual surveys or
charts and maps prepared soon after the period

Why don't the american boldly and frankly
avow that its only object in its malicious attacks,
and still more malicious inuendoes, impugning thu
course of our municipal authorities, is to bring
into contempt the Mayor and the members of the
Council; 10 break down the police, and to re-estab-
fish the old reign Of terror, of which it was at
one .me the most Jealous promoter and defender?
Why does not our contemporary come out openly
and declare itself the champion of the party
which numbered among its choicest adherents the
Plugs and the Rip Raps, the Blood Tubs and the
Red Necks, and other kindred and cougenial as
socatous, and with which--as all men NAV re
manufacturing four sanguinary years of mob
violence and misrule the american was closely
and cordially affiliated. If its side blows-blows
struck at the authorities around corners and I'M
der various masks and disguises--if such blows
are destined TO reach the vital points at which
they are aimed, then God help this city and
grant it, i'll His own good time Il safe deliverance

The engineer informs US that nothing but his
prompt stoppage Of the engine saved the Baltimore
from destruction. Had she kept on her way she
would have been struck about midshps and gone
to the bottom in a few moments. There were
about thirty passengers on board of tn Baltimore
many of them ladies, and the conduct of the Com
mander of the Quaker City is represented as hav-
ing been brutal and Indifferent beyond precedent.

The steamship Baltimore, Capt. Colbert, arrived
at this port yesterday from Havana. which port
she left the 9th nit, with large cargo offruit
&C., consigned to Messrs. Friend, Ricketts, & Co..
The Baltimore brought the following passengers :
Mrs. Capote, Mr.. l.. Uppery, of Boston; Mr.. Doty,
of Norfolk; Mr.. F. j. Clark, OF Boston; Ar. John
Kank, of Philadelphia; MIR. Schmidt, Mr John
Fryer, Of Baltimore; and Miss Underwood of Ha-
vana. In the steerage were Mr.. C. Dill, wife and
daughter; Mr.. j. Reckel and wife; Mr.. Victor. and
d. d. Sears.
Captain Colbert reports soon after passing Cape
Henry the I'd instant, while bound up the BAY,
observed large steamer on the port side, which
supposed one of the Boston and Baltimore line,
being perfectly unaware Of the state of affairs here
and the appearance of the steamer being anything
but that Of man-of war, together with the fact
that no gun fred or flag displayed as a signal
to heave to; continued my course heading Up the
bay, when within 4 short distance Of the Balti-
more, she suddenly changed Der course and stood
directly for the Baltimore, evidently with the in
tentiun of striking her amidships and sinking her
| then for the first time discovered that she had
pennant flag flying, and Immediately ordered our
ensign TO be hoisted the Batimore's engine was
also stopped but too late to avoid collision which
damaged the BaltimOre's bow to a considerable ex-
tent. The steamer proved to be the Quaker City,
chartered by the United States Government. The
Cap ain OF the Quaker City, after the collision abb
ruptly ordered me On board his vessel; upon meet
ing him he said to me- at is well you hosted
your signal when you did or l would have sunk
You" VI hen it is considered that the Baltimore
not signalled hailed, and that there were
several passengers on board, among them several
ladies, ii was, to say the least of it, very hasty and
reprcbensible conduct on the part of the comman-

From WiImer d Smiths European Times, ApriI 20.
PROPOSED MEDIATION OF ENGLAND AND FaANCE-
II civil war has really commenced between the
North and South, we hope that the Representatives
of England and France at Washington have been
Instructed by their respective governments to ten
der their aid medators before the struggle has
aroused all the fierce passions which, il continued
for any length of time certain to be called into
play. Both nations wish well to the American
peoples both alike interested in the general
prosperity of the country in every latitude: and
both impelled towards it by the strongest SYM
patty that can animate friendly nations. This
seems to us the last resource before the sword is
drawn and the scabbard thrown away, and proba
bly, the suggestion would meet the approval of thai
large class OF both extremes of the country which
must look with horror and dismay of the prospect
of men and brothers cutting each others threats
under circumstances so fearfuily provocative of
vengeance.
The London Morning Herald suggests the expedi-
ency of the United States getting involved with an
European war. a means of bringing together the
divergent sections of the American confederation
1t says:-
at is in fact the duty, no less than the policy,
of the American President to do what he can to
drive the Spaniards from San Domingo. Will it
be his fault if a war with Spain should force him
to the conquest of Cuba too? Will not the sugges-
ton of this possibility make many 10 the South
wish themselves back again in the Union? But,
meanwhile, not soul will pity Spain If her vio-
lence and wrong doing should draw down on her
even this chastisement."

The Quaker City had troops on board bound for
Washington, and the steamer Baltimore was
moving only under her private signal, she was
overhauled by the Quaker City to know who and
what she was.
Since writing the above, we have been waited
upon by Mr.. Friend, one of the owners of the Bal
more, and the chief engineer of the boat who
brought us the following statement of the officers
and passengers of the Baltimore.
{" The Baltimore left Havana on Saturday and
arrived at Cape Henry II o'clock on Thursday.
After passing the Cape saw steamer supposed To
be one OF the Boston steamers from Baltimore
bound to Boston. From the course they were
steering supposed she was going to pass the Balti
more on the port side, as she was on that side al
the time, when within short distance OF the Bal
tim0re she turned suddenly around and ran across
the Baltimore's bow. AS soon as this movement was
discovered on board of the Baltimore her engine
was stopped. The Quaker City came on and
striking the Baltimore on her bows very seri-
0usiy damaged her upper works. After passing
the Baltimore IN this manner the Quaker CITY
turned round, and to all appearances intended to
run into US again; at the same time raising her
port and running out large gun apparently with
the intention OF firing into u.s. There were two
brass guns upon the upper deck. The strongest
part OF this proceeding is the course pursued by
those in charge of the Government steamer in at
tempting to run down a merchant steamer in the
open day, without ever making signal hailiup.
or giving any Information whatever 10 run into
a steamer under such circumstances and endanrer
the lives of those on board merits in our upinion

said Government steamer.
