tended for the rlme destination.
The brig L. +. Leming, from Charleston,
reached Liverpool with q cargo Of rosin and tur.
pentine. She left Charleston In company with
seven other small craft.
The London Times regards the defeat Of Banks
one Of the most important successes TO the Con-
federates on account Of the lesson IL teaches the
North, showing that efforts and sacrifices greater
than any that have gone before must be made, II
even a border State is 70 be won back 10 Union.
Hopes Of an early solution must be dispelled; and
In the meantime increasing debts and mutual
hatred tend to make union more and more i'm
practible.
The Daily News treats the defeat OF Banks &c
quite uuimportan, and not In the slig htest degree
calculated to discomfort McCIeIlsn's plans.
The Morning Post denounces In the bitterest
terms Buffers proclamation relative 10 the ladies
Of New Orleans, and thinks the Government 10
bound to recall and court martial him, and says
such acts as this, IL not promptly disavowed,
would soon turn the scale finally and declEively
in favor of the Confederate cause.
