The North and south-A Neutraps Opin.
ion.
The Toronto Globe comments on the re-
cent outrapes in Missouri, as follows;


So far as the North is concerned, we may
claim for it that the war has hitherto been
carried on with greater regard for the rights
of the enemy than could have been expected.
Instead of the chivalrous Southerner setting
an example to the Yankee whom he pro-
fesses to despse, the reverse has been the
case. In the most trying circumstances the
Northern soldiers have shown q moderation
as wise as it is humane. 1t has been re-
served for the Confederate rebels-the men
who consider themselves the salt of the
American earth-to perpetrate an atrocity,
which, whatever view be taken of this un-
fortunate contest, must call down upon them
the execratiohs of the whole civilized world
We can understand how the commanders of
the armies on both sides should find it neces-
sary to break down railway bridges in order
to prevent the conveyance of troops and
material of war. But necessity can not be
pleaded in justification of such horrible
cruelty as that we have recorded. It is in
hnitely worse than the murder Of wounded
men upon the battle field; for in the heat of
blood who can say what he might do.
1t is worse than using the scalping-knife
upon the slain, for the savage can plead tra-
dition and use in palliation of the atrocitY.
The man who secretly stabs his foe, bastard
though he be, hates him be slays. But thus
to destroy men, women and children, merely
fox the qualification of political hatred, with
out there being the slightest prospect Of gain
by it, or without any pretence of use or ne
cessity for it, is devilish in the extreme. 1t
must nerve the men of the North to sterner
determination to trample out the rebellion,
cost what it may, and will justify the
wreaking of a most terrible revenge upon
the traitors who thus shed innocent blood.
Ifthe rebel leaders have any sense of shame,
or any knowledge of justice, OF any regard
for the opinion of the world, they will seek
out the men who perpetrated the outrage,
and make such an example of them that no
more deeds of a like kind will be done. Bad
as their cause is, there is nothing they could
do more likely still further to lower it in the
estimation Of foreign nations than to allow
this wsnton outrage to 60 unpunished. But,
after all, what else is to be expected in re.
bellion avowedly originated for the spread
and the perpetuation of human slavery.

Another Catholic Voice.

The Pittsburg Catholic, published under
the supervision of the Roman Catholic
Bishop of Pittsburg, and edited by his Secre-
tary, DR.. Keogh thus closes an article on
the peace movement:
We are in favor of peace, and speedy
peace, too, and therefore we desire to see the
utmost activity in the prosecution of the war.
Peace can be secured only by the suppression of
the rebellion. And few victories like that
of Fort Hatteras, coupled with energetic
measures similar to those adopted by Cen
eral Fremont, will do more to bring back
peace than all the peace-meetings that might
be held ever could do. A peace thus gained
would destroy forever the principle of Sc
cession, which has given rise to the present
unholy fratricidal rebellion. 1t would Sc
cure permanent tranquility, and, the majesty
Of the Constitution being vindicated, the
country would enter on new era of pros
perity and greatness. These remarks furnish
also the answer to the very shallow Ito use a
mild term) objection that has been urged
against US, that because we are clergymen
we should condemn the war; which object
ion being interpreted into plain language
means, that because we are clergymen we
should afford aid and comfort to detesta-
BILE rebellion; or, in other words, be traitors
to our country. The absurdity of the prin-
ciple is so apparent that it needs no further
refutation. So far from being influenced by
it, we hold as certain the truth proclaimed
by the venerable Bishop of Buffalo, that the
North was obliged to maintain the Govern
ment against the attacks of the South, and
that it is mercy to prosecute the war Wig
orously, and to strike decisive blows, thus to
shorten the contest and hasten the return oi
peace,

TIE SPANISH PRooLAMATIoN.--The follow
ing is the substance of the Spanish procla-
nation, which the South construed into a
recognition of their independence
The proclamation declares that the Queen
is determined to observe the strictest neu-
trality between the Federal States of the
Union and the Confederate States of the
South. With this view, it is prohibited to
arm, build or fit out privateers, no matter
under what flag, in any Spanish port. Ship
owners and captains of Spain are prohibited
from accepting letters of marque, and from
contributing in any way to the armament
and fitting out of privsteers.
Privateers and prizes are prohibited re-
naming over twenty-four hours in any Span
ish port, save in case of urgent necessity, in
which case the harbor authorities are to COM
pei them to proceed to sea as early as posi-
ble, and not allow them to ship but what is
necessary, and never under any preteXt arms
and ammunition. No articles belonging to
prizes may be sold.
The carriage of goods to none Of the block
AIDED ports is guaranteed, except war mate
rial and letters, which are prohibited. Of
tenders are responsible for their own acts,
and have no claim for protection.
Spaniards are prohibited from taking serv-
ice on either side, and must abstain from all
acts which may be regarded as opposed to
the neutrality.
Offenders are to be liable to the measures
adopted by the belligerents, and punished
according to the laws of Spain. The decree is
dated June II, countersigned by Senior Col
liant and the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

EXCITEMENT IN THEATRIcAL CIRCLEs-
There is considerable excitement among
habitues OF theatrical circles at this time,
growing out Of the sudden disappearance of
a gentleman who was somewhat well known
in conjunction with the hnanaial department
of a popular theater. 1t is rumored that the
gentleman in question-who has for long
ment-has suddenly eloped with large pro-
portion of the funds belonging to the princi-
pal of the firm. He has been missed for
nearly ten days, and the defalcation is ru-
mored to be in the neighborhood of $40, 900.

~. BIS" VANITY.-Bayard Taylor writes
the following from Germany;

o. De o fANlIt'-Ddydlu 1dylOr WrlleS
the following from Germany;
The venerable j. B., it is we'll known,
never suffered seriously from lack of the
article of vanity, but his supply is really
greater than had anticipated. In this
place is published the Almanac de Gotha, the
most aristocratic calender in the world, con-
tanning 'the only reliable" pedigrees and
portraits of the crowned heads. Well, last
Summer the publisher was surprised by the
reception Of a portrait of Miss Harriet Lane,
forwarded by her uncle, with a request that
it be engraved for next years Almanac, as
our republican rulers had right to appear
in the company of the reigning families. 1t
is habit of many of our politicians to pay
for having their portraits in the illustrated
papers, but had hoped that our late Exec
utive possessed a little too much dignity to
knock at the door which was certain to be
slammed in his face-as it was. Perhaps
ought not to disturb his ashes, but his his.
terical picture is so near complete, that this
additional touch will not alter feature.

Our NATIONAL LOAN IN EHGLAND.-An
incident of some significance, so far as our
National Loan is understood by practical
and intelligent bankers abroad is related by
an American gentleman who has Just re-
turned from London. While at his bankers,
the Messrs Barring, he asked Mr. Joshua
Bates, Of that old and eminent house. whether
England would take any part of our new I. 80
per cent. loan at par. His prompt reply was,
that the English people would get no part of
the loan at par, for the sufficient reason,
based on the last advices from this side that
the loyal States would absorb the whole loan,
and this result being accomplished, as it soon
will be, the English people would be glad to
buy part of it at premium. Of course, the
American gentleman, whose politics are
loyal, was abundantly satisfied with this
answer. But not so an American companion
whom he had invited to accompany him to
his bankers, Southerner, intimate at the
rooms of Mr.. Yancey and the other Oonfeder-
ate Commissioners at the Westminster Hotel.
He was astonished at Mr.. Bates, and the
next time the friends met, which CHANGED to
be at Yancey's quarters, there was consider
ably less talk about the inability of the North
to command the means to suppress the Con
federate rebellion. Indeed, it is related that
the spirits of the Southern party were seri.
ously depressed by the discovery made at the
counting-room of one of the first banking
houses in Europe.-BoSton Journal.

TOUCHING INCIDENTAL prominent citizen
of Versailles, who recently visited Camp
Robinson, in Gsrrard County, remained on
the ground until the hour Of retiring, for the
he concluded to walk around and see and
hear what he could. His ear soon caught the
voice of prayer, and, upon nearer approach,
he found that it proceeded from tent occu.
pied by Tennesseeans. These pious but per-
secuted men were engaged in solemn prayer
to the Almighty, invoking His kind care and
protection of their wives and little ones left
behind them in their once happy homes.
Although not much given to the melting
mood, our worthy friend could not restrain
the tear of sympathy. He felt grateful that
he was a citizen Of Kentucky, and he felt
his soul strengthened to battle for her freedom
to the last extremity. Louisville Journal.

The Washington correspondent of Tues
days EVsning Post says:
PROSPECTS

PROSPECTS.
There is good evidence for believing that
the Government expects an attack from the
rebels between Alexandria and the Chain
Brioge, If they make any attack at all. 1t is
believed that Beauregard and johnson have
relinquished their idea of crossing the river
many miles above or below Washington, for
want Of sufficient transportation, and that
they will make a desperate attempt on our
line of Notifications, if they take the offensive
at all. This is undoubtedly, their safest
course. Such is the opinion OF our military
chlefsi that, if they mean to advance at all,
there is less risk in attacking our troops in
front of Washington than in undertaking to
cross twenty or thirty miles above. If they
(the rebels) can only take Fort Corcoran,
they will have won the capital, for its guns
can be turned upon the city to its utter ruin.
Should battle be fought near our line of
entrenchments, and the rebels win, they
would be near enough to the capital to profit
by their victory, which was not the case be-
fore. Hence, even if they propose acting en-
tirely on the defensive, they get up as near
to the city as possible.
FUGITIVE SLAVES.
Several of our army officers persist in the
bad habit of catching fugitive slaves and re-
turning them to their masters. This is not
only without warrant of law, but is in direct
Violation OF congress, as expressed in its re-
cent session. 1t is very difficult to learn
where the order emaDates. Some lay it to
the President, others to General Mcclellan,
and others still to Secretary Cameron. The
probability is, that such acts are unauthor-
lied, but that the War Department dislikes
to issue an order prohibiting it. If it was
necessary to force Fremont to comply ex-
actly with the Con6scaton Act, the question
is asked here: why is not the Government
equally anxious to regard the will of Con.
favor the liberty of the slave2 1t is q fact
that fugitive slaves are continually arrested
and returned to their masters by our officers,
and that, too, without receiving any rebuke
from the President or War Department.
