Lord John RuSSell'S Elevation to
the Peerage.

The London. Times. Of July IL,
referring to the intended elevation Of
Lord John Russell to the House Of
Peers, remarks
For the last five and forty years
the name of Lord John Russell, has
been connected with every species of
political vicissitude-now with the
most complete success, now witt, the
most complete failure, with the for
nation of one government and the
solution Of another; with Catholic
emancipation, with the reform bill.
with municipal reform, with the CORN
laws-in fact, with every stirring
and every important measure Of the
times in which we live. On all
these subjects Lord John Russell
has played no inconsidcrahle part,
and it cannot seem unreasonable that
in the tulness of years and honoIs
the statesman Of such long and vari-
ed experience should seek for repose
in that halcvon region where sup
ply is uuknown, where the dinner
hour is the most sacred institution.
and where an audience Of three or
four dimini>hcs the difficulty Of an
orator and the chance Of hostile in
tcrruption.
Lord John Russell tirst held a seat
in the House of Commons when
George III. was king. in the yeas
1913, before the first Napoleon war
hurled from his throne, aud while
toryism was in the very zenith OF its
ascendaucv. lie has been f'i.s.
Lord OF the Treasury, and Secre:a-
ry of State for the Home, Colonial
and Foreign Departments ; and, be-
SIDES the Government OF which he
wos the head. he has been mem
brr of the admin STATIONS of Lord
Grey. Lord Melbourne. Lord Abcr-
deem and Lord Falmerston. But
above all. Lord John Russell was
the man picked out from the great
Liberal party TO move i'll the House
ot Con..n4iS the Introduction OF the
great reform bill.
1t was his voice that first inaug-
ura,rd the great revolution, for such
it h&s un, o 1b,e ily proved. of 1882.
LORD john kuSseifs name has been
50 lor- connected with the House
of Commons that it is difficult to i'm
agine him contending in any other
arena. But we can perceive the dig
nifty and admit the wisdom OF re
treat from the prominent position
which he has 50 long held in the
public eve. before time has made
any inro"u on his faculties. or de-
prived linn of the influence which
has so long cxersed over the delib-
| |eratious of the HouS. Of Commons.

Wholesale Ayrests--Arrests of Colonel Rich.
ard Thomas On Sunday, from information
received of the whereabouts Of several parties
charged with having participated in the riot of
the 18th of April, Lieutenant Carmichael Of
Colonel Kenly's police, with another, left on q
tug. boat for Fairhsven, and succeeded in the
arrest of Cornelius Green and another. Col.
onel Richard Thomas, Of St. Mary's, who is al.
legged to have been engaged in the capture of
the St. Nicholas and the three schooners, laden
with coal, ice, and coffee, got on board the
steamer Mary Washington at Milestone landing,
on the Patuxsnt river, for the purpose Of com.
ing to this city. When the boat reached Fair.
oners, and among the passengers already on
board were the crew Of the St. Nicholas and
those of the captured schooners. At this point
the friends of Col. Thomas demonstrated against
his coming to Baltimore, though they were
ignorant Of the presence Of officers On board,
but he persisted in his determination, and
against all entreaty that could be used he de-.
clared that he would come up. Shortly after
the boat left, the pilot Of the schooner which was
laden with coffee informed the officers of the
presence of Colonel Thomas, and they at once
arrested him. They then drew their pistol 8
and took their positions on the quarter deck,
to prevent the possibility of escape by the
small boats. Col. T. at once determined to
leave the boat if possible, but no opportunity
was afforded him. Capt. Weems was ordered
to stop at Fort McHenry, and on reaching that
point all the prisoners and the witnesses, an

GENERAL JoHNsoN's FoRcE-PATTERsoN's AD.
vANcE-ENTHusIAsM-T FINE SPIRIT
OF OUR TRooPs-Gov. WISE, ETC.
Aartinsburg, July s.-Two deserters from
Gen. Johpson's Camp, came in yesterday.
They estimate his force at fifteen thousand
with twenty-five cannon.
Reliable information has since been re-
ceved, that Gen. johnson has been reinforced
from Manassas Junction with FIVE regiments
and one piece Of cannon.
The Pennsylvania pickets Of the fifteenth
regiment have taken as prisoners three rebel
troopers, with their horses, this afternoon.
Four Of our pickets we're captured yesterday
and to-day, whilst searching beyond the lines
for water aud Virginia hot cornbread.
The farmers near Hainesvile showed US the
graves Of ten rebels killed during the fight at
that place. The corpses were found by them in
the woods, horribly mutilated by exploded
shells from Perkins's howitzers.
The staff estimate the number Of the enemy
killed, and wounded at sixty, but I do not
make it so high.
The deserters say that large number Of the
Confederates will follow their example on the
first opportunity, and report that one Of the
wounded, at Hsinesvlle, declared to his officers
that he had not fred during the engagement,
and showed the nipple Of his gun closed up
with lead.
We have rumor here this evening, which
has been received with great enthusiasm, that
General Mcclellan had routed Ex-Governor
Wise at Buckhannon and Laurel Hill.
Reinforcements are now approaching us
from Williamsport, which will give US an avail.
able force of twenty thousand fighting men to
move forward with and you may expect for.
ward movement in the course of twenty -four
hours.
Our men are all grumbling with impatience
and eager to move on but it is believed tina,
General johnson will fall back to Winchester
and that there we will have the first battle.
