cessary to carry out these objects; and this
seems to English observers to be altogether
out of the question. If this difficulty were
overcome the state legislatures would still be
protected by the very constitution which
the army of occupation would come to en-
force; nor would it be possible, without ia.
tai inconsistency, to prohibit free discussion
in newspapers, public meetings and the like.
All this would be fatal to continuous com.
pulsion.
TALK AND DEEDS.
These observations are SO obvious and
weighty that any considerable Englishman
would, as far as bis private opinion went,
be decided by them but those who insist
upon them with so much force ought to re-
member that there is another side to the
subject. 10 advise brave and high spirited
men to permit, not to resist, the forcible,
wrongful destruction of institutions to which
they rightly attach the highest value, on the
ground that it is extremely difficult to
maintain them, is what men who recognise
the claims of courage and spirit ought to
be 10th to do. That the North has right
on its side there can be no doubt. That it

is equally plain. Surely it is question
rather for them than for US whether there is
reasonable prospect of redressing those
wrongs by force of arms. A nation, like
an individual, may easily overrate difficult
ties. 1t is by no means clear that the
tone of the South will be so naughty as it
is at present, or that their determination to
resist will be unanimous after they have
felt the weight of the Northern army.
There is no doubt on each side superabun.
dance of the very fercest kind of talk, and
of protestations of unfinchiug constancy !;
but it by no means follows that it would
survive the horrors OF battles and sieges,
and the awful prospect of servile insurrec-
tion. AT any rate, no one can know whether
it will or not till they try. Ireland would
have been independent long ago if we had
taken the advice of disinterested foreigners
about it. In 1857 many writer's on the
continent and in the United States supposed
that they had proved in the most convinc.
ing manner that we never could reconquer
India. Nothing that is worth keeping in
this world can be kept without an effort !;
and it is premature to say that fighting is of
no use until it has been fairly tried. We have
fair right to dwell on all the difficulties
and the horrors of the task; but in common
justice it must be admitted that the North
are fighting in good cause and for high
stake.

The day after the battle of Bull Run,
Peter Enganolf, General SCOTS cOachmans
crossed into Virginia to exercise the horse
of member of General Mansfelds staff,
He was not heard of afterwards, and it was
supposed that he had voluntarily gone to the
enemy. A gentleman has arrived in Wash
ington from Richmond, informing General
Scott that Eganolf had incautiously but
unwittingly gone beyond our lines, and was
surprised by the rebel pickets. He at first
refused to tell who be was, but at last dis.
closed bis position, and the capture so much
elated the rebels that they sent him on to
Richmond, where be is now employed cook.

Firs; .rate Hit..-An Historical Fact

The New York Tribune revives an his.
torical fact that is we'll calculated to stop
the English merriment over our small loss
at the battle at Manassas
The London Times calls the fight at Bull
Run ''sham BATTLE" and makes merry over
the losses on the national side, which it pre-.
tends to consider ridiculously small. 1t may
not be regarded as impertinent for US to
compare this "sham battle" with the Eng
lish attack on Sebastopol in September,
1855. We find that the English stormed
the Redan, and were beaten off in such dis
order that they could not rally. Their to-.
tai number of killed was 1856. The loss in
killed on the part of our Army at Manas~
sas was 480. The former is called by the
London Times an "awful conflict lat
ter "sham BATTLE" in which sthe only
struggle was to get away"
That is shot right through the centre
of John Bull.

CRoPs IN IRELAND.-The Northern Wing
(Ireland) referring to the reports of its cor
respondents on the subject of its potato
crop-some isolated cases of the disease
having produced anxiety among the farm
ers in Ulster-proceeds:
We still incline to the conviction that the
Irish potato crop Of 1861 will be the finest
we have seen for quarter of century,
and that the yield will be abundant in guam.
tity and of excellent quality. A return of
fine weather for month would make the
fortune of the Irish farmer. All other
crops are fourishing apace. Some fax is
laid by the heavy rains, and in white wheat
a few cases of rust are reported. The wet
weather has caused heavy return from the
meadows, and the hay will be abundant.
The yield of oats and straw will be- profuse,
if we have sun to ripen it, and fodder will,
in that case, be very cheap next season. All
root CROPS are reported as in most luxuriant
condit on.

Must Make up their Minds to Fight

Must MAKE up tneIT NAiAAseS w AoAA
The controversy between the secessionists
and the Union men in Kentucky is waxing
warm. The Louisville Journal of August
22d, uses the following emphatic language :
Now, gentlemen of the secession party,
you must stop ere the Rubicon is passed
BE assured, that while we, the Union men

estly wish peace with you, be assured, we
say. that if you attempt to carry out this
vilIainous scheme, you may make up your
minds to fight. The Union men of Ken
lucky are not entirely uuprepared to meet
such an emergency. They have struggled
for peace from the commencement of this
conflict. They desire it now. But if you
have made up your minds to give them war,
they will meet the issue as becomes brave,
true and loyal Kentuckians. God forbid
that you shall present such an issue.
