as to the wretched condition of the allied forces
as described by our own correspondent" which
made the Russians more vndictive and more de-
termined, more destructive, and stimulated them
to make greater exertions to pour down troops
to the Crimea. England may thank Russell for
additions to many Crimean graveyard many
noble home in England has been made sad by
this reckless trader in human reputation, who yes
terday came sniy cling, like whipped schoolboy
before the British people, in three column at
tack upon the American Government, simply be-
cause that Government has enforced its orders,
not against Mr.. Russell only, but against all the
correspondents of the world, American as we'll as
European. France, he forgets to mention, was
the dear ally of England in the Russian war, yet
he was refused permission to enter the French
camps, although the allied Generals were acting
in concert. The Emperor sent special order
prohibiting his entrance inside the ranks. 1t was
enough to see the Times play into the hands of
Russia, by slandering the English army, without
hbeling the French as well. President Lincoln
has only followed the action of some other distin-
guished names. Do you think that the British

Government would allow any newspaper CORES
pondent, in the employ of any other Government
to critcise any of the movements of the army on
the field of battle? ["No."] How strange that
this Russell should ask a favor of the Presi-
dent whom a short time ago he accused of man
slaughter in hanging the slave trader, Gordon
But, to continue-in 1856 he was sent to Moscow
fo inf A. A
and will do him the justice to say that he paint
ed it well. That year his college dubbed him
L. L. d. The next year he was in India and in
1858, established that lamentabte failure, tie

more directly to the question in debate-Was the
President justified in his expulsion?
IN LEAGUE WITH THE REBELLION.
Received at New York with open arms, intro
duced at our clubs and in our families, he writes
his first letter. and prints his first libel declaring
that there was no Union feeling, no Union senti-
ment, no Union army, in the North; predicting
the entire collapse of our Republic. He went to
Washington, where doors opened wide again to
give him welcome, and again he replied with an
passed on to Charleston, and there it was that he
found the gentleman, the chivarous officer, the
anointed Carolinian and Abolition Russell fell
violently in love with negro slavery, and Southern
brandy. From this point he wrote that Repub-
lcanism was dead in the South-the Confederacv
wanted king-and the Prince of Wales was sug-
gested. That noble Prince, who, few months
before had been insulted in Richmond, the only
place where he was not well received in the west
ern world. Acting on these letters and his Con-
federate conspirator, Bunch, the secession British
Consul at Charleston-Lord John Russell made
his first false step in acknowledging the rebels as
belhgerents and it is not the fault of those Brit
ish spies that the Foreign Secretary did rot ac-
knowledge the Confederacy. Under the sacred
cover of diplomatic letters, it is fair to presume
that at this time he made his plans to furnish
through the British dispatch bags to the rebel
Generals the entire plans of the Northern army,

Yancey and the British Government thoroughly
posted, through the dispatches of Lord Lyons to
the Foreign office; acting the double part of a
British informer and rebel spy dissent and
proof, proof]
You ask for proof refer you to the diplo-
matte correspondence, in the month of October,
between Seward, Adams, and Lord Lyons, de-
manding the recall of Bunch, for sending rebel
papers from the Southern leaders to their Com
missioners here, through Lord Lyons dispatch
bag, and the Foreign Office. Seward having
tripped up the British Government in this eouiyo
cal piece of diplomacy, Lord John Russell after
wards sent his special messenger by every steamer
to Washington and it is a ngular fact that Yam
cey was the first to obtain every information on
both sides of the line, the moment this arrange
ment was made [hear, hear j but go on, Russell
was next at Fort Pickens which he falsely pre-
dicted would soon be occupied by Gen. Bragg
but recent events have proved that although Gen.
Bragg may be a good dog, Gen. Holdfast is
better.
