OPINIONS OF THE BRITISH PRESS.

The LORdJr Iimes, NCr. JD.
The Cabinet met yesterday 10 deliberate on the
steps which should be taken TO obtain satisfaction
for the recent outrage on the British flag. On 10
momentons an occasion we cannot doubt that every
point was discussed with the utmost care, and that
the decision was not arrived at without full con-
sideration Of the possible consequences. Among the
members of the present Government are men OF the
greatest experience and the most profound learning
I.ord Palmerston has been engaged in political life
for half century and has conducted the foreign
affairs OF this country during an age pregnant with
revolutions and dynastic changes. Lord Russell has
all HE life made constitutional history aud law his
study, aud his opinions may always be counted upon
in favor of national and individual liberty. IL would
have been diicnlt TO find at any period more pro-
found knowledge, combined with more Judicial
mind than are united in Sir Conewall Lewis,
and in the Lord Chancellor the Government has
an adviser whose reputation as Jurlst In second
TO none in Europe. Furthermore It may lie stated
that the Cabinet has continually awaited itself Of
the assistance Of the Law Officers Of tho Crown,
and that the course it has resolved upon in accord
ancc with their mature and reiterated opinions
The public will therefore feel that in supporting her
Majesty's Government they do but assert a claim
that il founded in truth and Justice. We may say,
then, that the Cabinet has come TO the conclusion
that the act Of the captain OF the San Jacnto in sez
ing passengers board British vessel and carry
lug them forcibly away, is clear violation of the
law Of nations, and one for which reparation must
be at once demanded. In all probability the next
steamer will carry out dispatch, instructipg Lord
Lyons to demand reparaiion for the ladvised act Of
the San Jacinto in seizlng Messs. Mason and Sldel
while under the protection 1.-THE British flag. Should
this Just demand not be complied with, we cannot
doubt that Lord Lyons WILL under the instructions
of Lis Government, withdraw with the British lcga-
ton from Washington. We believe that the Cabi-
net has taken "a view of the matter which will be
satisfactory alike TO the patriotism and the reason of
Of the country. Without questioning the light Of a
btlgerent vessel TO stop and search our merchant.
men for contmband Of war, our ministers entirely
deny the elaim which WIS asserted in this case, and
which would permit foreign naval officer to take
persona ut his own discretion from under
the British flag, on the pretence that
they arc Rebels or citisens of hostile

Advices from the upper command on the river line
report all quiet last night. rumor existed at Will
Transport that jackson was about to march his force
to the river, at some point between Hsrpers Ferry
and Hancock but it could not be traced TO any au-
thentc source and consequently was entitled to but
little or no credence
DR.. Steiner, the Sanitary Inspector of Gen. Bankss
division, acknowledge the receipt (per expTess) of
large quantity of blankets, quilts, sheets and shirts
for conyaescents, for distribution TO regimenal hos
pitfalls, donated and forwarded by the Woman's Cen
trail Association of Relief, No. 10 Cooper Union,
New-York. While contributing TO the physical
comfort of the sick soldier the donors did not over
look food for the mind but included large package
of newspapers and magazines and periodicals. Per-
sons feeling sympathy for the invads of the army,
and desiring TO send appropriate articles OF any and
all kinds may feel assured that their wishes will be
fully carried out by forwarding them to DIR. Steiner
As the commission is purely humane institution,
and mas no funds under its CONTROL it is desirable
that expenses should be prepaid.

RESULTS OF THE FORT PICKENS bonn
RARDMENT.

We have been furnished with some interesting
news from the South, through the courtesy OF Capt.
Woodruff of the Connecticut and from other sources
The Connecticut has been "police' service.
She has overhauled II vessels-in0st Of which were
ordered away-and has taken two prizes, the Ade-
laide and the Zealand, both sailing under British
coors, and endeavoriDg to run the blockade. They
were sent 10 Kew West. The Adelaide had valu-
able cargo, consisting Of 80 tuns of coffee large
amount Of sugar. and some arms principally fwordsl
She WAS condemned. The Zealand appeared TO be In
ballast, but it believed that the cargo had been
thrown overheard. She was finally discharged,
though it was admitted that the circumstances under
which she was found were suspicious.
AFFAIRS AT PENSACOLA.
The Connecticut arrived at Fort Pickens on the
night of Saturday, the sd Of November just at the
close of the bombar0ment OF the rebel forts ana bat
teries by Col. Brown and our forces She wasthere-
fore too late TO witness the firing but It's effect was
very apparent. The flames from Warrington and
Woolsey were ascending, ana the spec'acie 10 ue-
scrlbed as magnificent. These towns-one al one
side of the Navy Yard and the other on the opposite
.ide-are believed 70 have been nearly II not quite,
consumed. The Navyiard foundery was destroyed,
and Fort McRae can no longer be dIgnihed by inc
name of a fort. II is simply dapidsted battery,
nomiually occupied, though bu, ht'ie ehort S inaue
TO place il in fighting trim again.
THE EFFECTS or THE FIRE.
The Federal war steamers Niagara and DE Soto
xere living nj Pensacola on the oath Of November.
The Niagara. though struck by the rebel shot, was
in perfect order, and ready for another engagement.
The Richmond lad also been repaired. Inc injury
10 the latter vessel was not so great as nau oe.n
feared. When the Connecticut left Key West, SIX
DAYS ago, the Richmond was about sailing Tor iorl
Pickens, having been fully restored to her original
condition. &C.,,
The only reason why the fire Of Col Brown, from
Pickeps, was not renewed, consisted in the iaci tha'
lie had not sufficient force to follow up hls success
..ln Arfff
Dive ont the earrisons but as in the Gaze OF fofI
McRea which was evacuated and Ie-oecnpied three
different times The rebels are in all cases peIni'ed
TO return and sgain take possession. Some OF thsr
sand batteries were much injured, bnt these are ca
pabe of being restored in siogle night.
The position of our forces was perfectly seeuie
they were wsilhig only for re-eniorceneh's, nnu
lieved that P-.sacola would at once fall inio .he
HANDS OF forces. Such, 1t is understood, was lc
belief among the rebel forces lnt they have nov mo

A report reached the city yesterday that the
Federal p0ntoon bridge at Paducah had been
DESTROYED ly aoodin the 0hio-tho fastenines

The Cllicot Pros suggests that as il viii be
impossible for tue Leyec Board Of that county
to Jet cut contracts fer the construction Of leveos
70 contractors as heretofore, owing 60 ihe fact that
Irish worl.nen cannot be obtained, that rather
than have the country again inundated, st would
be wei to call out the negroes in the district
where the breach occurs and have the work
completed remunerating the planters Tor their
services either at so much per day or per cubic
yard. The Press thinks it must be matter Of
Indifference to to tho Board whether the money
TOR such work IS paid to citizens Of the county
or to persons residing beyond its limits, 50 that
the county is thoroughly protected.
