pro3riatng TO their own use or destroying any and
every kind of private property which may fall in

TIE BRITISH ADMIRAL MILNE, AND THE BLOCK
ADE-A letter in the New York Express, from Fort
Pickens. says that the British Admiral, MILNE, who
has been visiting the coast that the right of
English commerce are protected, has furnished his
subordinate commanders definition of what is to
be considered as an effective blockade in the follow
ing articles:
l. No port is blOckaded efficiently if any vessel
can enter or depart from it unknown to, or in spite
Of the guardian men-Of-war.
2. An efficient blockade necessitstes the complete
cutting off of all maritime ngress or egress, except
in regard to harbor islands having outlet to the
sea, save under the guns of the feet.
,. The escape of the third vessel from the block
aiding squadron sgnalizesthe invadity Of the block
ade.
The phrase of the second article with respect to
island harbors" is important, and seems to give no
little uneasiness to the Northern construcdoniss OF
the blockade who complain that there are such
harbors as those excepted in Admiral MINES def
milton at several of the Southern ports, which could
keep the Confederates in provisions for months

Coercion Impracticable.

One serious impediment which Linco

The capitalists 6f y sW York city hays al:

more Government Stock IL war is TO be in
augurated. And so it will be in other places.
A Government such as the United States
will be when emerged in civil war, could
not borrow money upon any terms. The
New York Journal Of Commerce discoursinp
upon Federal finances, says:
Tie true position of our capitalists need
not be mistaken. They ask Of the Gov
ernment, ns they would of any other Dor.
rover, that II rhall not run madly upon Ger

their mad thirst for blood, has not tended

had 1t in his power, by single sentence, to
quiet the general apprehension on this sub
ject, has disappointed nearly all conserva-
tive men by his recent uttsrances, which
ever way they may be Interpreted and the
anxiety thus created, cannot be qnslled by
a "judicious display Of frmnsss." There
is disposition to help General Dix 10 his

and pr6yiding tho necessary expenses Of
carrying on'a peaceful administration but
to 60 beyond this ih furnishing n war fund
