"SAs oc HotiAcu tIaI, unucr the autnOrlty anu
limitations Of our government, the ships Of their
respective countries may enter said port and
receive their cargoes of cotton. Thus, for the
relief OF the cotton planter and cotton manufac-
turer and the trader between them, we shall
soon, in all probability, turn King Cotton him
self against jeff Davis and his spurious govern
ment, and against Lord Palmerston and his
shallow cotton and disunion confederates Of
England
Snch are the grand results we anticipate from
this great naval enterprise of ours, southwark
bound. A decisive thrust in the flank of this
Southern rebellion, its speedy overthrow in
Virginia and all the border slave States, and
powerful ally in the cotton States, Of King Cot
ton himself in behalf of the blessings of the
Union. Prosperous winds and glorious yicto-
ries attend this great naval expedition.
The UNION MOVEMENT IN NoErn CARO-
LiNA.-Eisewhere will be found the reso-
buttons and declaration Of independence re-
Gently agreed to at a meeting of the in
habitants Of Hyde county, North Carolina,
and of which we gave o brief synopsis
the other day. The movement bears out what
we have always asserted would be the case,
that wherever landing of federal troops could
be effected on the Southern coast there would
be an immediate rallying of the Union loving
portion Of the community round the old flag
Gratifying as is this evidence of continued
loyalty to the federal government on the part
Of the people of that part of North Carolina, it
is to be regretted that il comes to us associated
with gloomy ,idings Of the restitution of the
inhabitants who live upon the Banks, and who
have, as one of the results Of rebellion, been
deprived of their accustomed means of living
which entirely depended upon their free
intercourse with the mainland. They ap.
peal to the bencvolence of the loyal
North in their necessities, and have
selected one of their most influential
residents to represent their condition. That the
appeal of Mr.. Taylor will be generously re-
sponded to there can be but little doubt par
tcularly when II is once understood that it is
from these people that these resolutions and this
bill Of grievances against the Southern confcde-
racy emanate. The long list Of wrongs en-
braced in the latter closes with the following
now discover ourselves, and, with full and
lively sense Of the responsibilities which our
action devolves upon us, and reverently invok-
ing the aid and guidance Of Almighty God, we
pledge to each other, for the maintenance Of
our solemn compact, our lives, our fortunes and
our sacred honor" The following was one of
the resolutions adopted at the same meetng:-
s'Resolvcd, That we hereby voluntarily and de-
liberately reaffirm our loyalty to the govern
ment of the United States, and express our un-
alterable attachment to the constitution, which is
the basis of the Union founded by our fathers"
These are evidently the sentiments not only of
the suffering people of Hatteras, but of the ina
jority of the citizens OF the old Carolinas
INGRATITUDE OF ENGLAND-The contemplate
jealousy Of the government of Great Britain in
its relations with the United States, at the
present time, presents most striking contrast
to tho generosity and disintcrcsted friendship
with which Americans have treated the mother
country, for over quarter of century. After
the war of the Revolution, 1t ia true that rem
nants of bitterness remained and continued to
be prevalent during the greater part Of gene
ration. When rebellion broke out, however, in
Canada, in 1887, the bulk of popular sentiment
throughout the United States, was, in the high
est degree, friendly towards the British govern
ment, and, on very many occasions, when coali-
tons have been formed among the despotsIns
Of the European continent to overthrow the
supremacy of England, our people have mani
tested desire to form a coalition with our
natural allies, to check the arrogance of the
enemies Of freedom. The attempts to enlist re
cruits for the British army, during the Crimean
war; excited, it is true, both surprise and indig-
nation, but these were of short duration, and, at
the time Of the instruction in India, the sympa-
thy felt here with the English army in the
East reached such o point that there were
strong indications Of a disposition to render
active assistance to the British government
When the news of the death of the gallant
Havelock was received the flags of our ship
ping were lowered, and it was regarded a.
almost national calamity. The eliminating
point Of American attachment for England was
attained, however, at the period of the arrival
in this country of the Prince Of Wales Had
stead of a British crown, the enthusiasm mani
tested could scarcely have been greater. He was
greeted with ovations which elected the CRATE
full Acknowledgements Of Queen Victoria her
self, and only in Richmond, and through the
slave States, now in rebellion were indignities
offered to his person. But year has elapsed
since ministers in both houses of Parliament de
clarcd that every English heart must forever
| respond with grateful emotion to the conduct Of
the people of the United States, and what do we
see? Every nerve strained, every intrigue en-
ployed to embarrass and thwart the policy Of
the administration insolence and menace
thrown into the teeth of the Secretary OF State
by the Minister from tie Court of London at
Washington; and armed assistance threatened
to prevent the restoration of the integrity of
the Union! 1t would be difficult to imagine a
line Of policy more disgraceful, mean and un-
grateful than that which England is now pur-
suing towards the United States
