The Cincinnati Volksblatt gives this
version of the reported alteration between
Mcdowell and Sigel:
SjgeI, while engaging the enemy, OBJ
served Mcdowell waving a handkerchief
to the rebels. He Immediately rode up
and demanded an explanation. The reply
being very insulting, Sgel resented it
with pistol shot, the ball striking Me-
DowelPs scabbard.
This statement purports to como from
an eyewitness of the occurrence. The
Volksblatt also states that Sieel. disgust
cd with the corruption and iuUtli iency of
the military commaplers IN the East, will
resign if not relieved from service in that
quarter.

other noticeable difference between the Yam

WHAT LINCOLN SAID.

After the Presidents emancipation mes.
sage Of March 9Th had teen sent 10 Congress.
large delegation Of Border State members
waited on him at the White House TO remon.
strate. They set forth various objections, and
insisted that he must recsde from the position
which he had assumed. Mr.. Lincoln listen, d
patiently to all they had to say, and then re.
piled in substance as follows: Gentlemen. the
difference between your views aud mino con
sists in this: You love slavery, and therefore
desire to have 1t protected, strengthened and
extended, as good and desirable institution.
Now Ihdte sduery, because | believe it to
be wrong. Therefore | think it should be
restricted, discouraged, and the support of
the Government withdrawn from il; and
whatever can be done, consti,u,ionaly, to.
wards terminating it, ought to be applied
Hence, | recommended to Congress the adop
ton Of a joint resolution that the United
States ought to co operate with any State
which may take steps for its abolishment.-
And as all parts of the country are responsible
for the existence and tolerance Of slavery
among us, | suggested on grounds OF equity
that pecunary aid on the part Of the United
States should bo rendered TO the emancipation
States to compensate for the INCONVENIENCE
produced by such change of system. | hope,
gentlemen, that on more mature reflection
you will consent to lend ne your influence to
bring about result that, in my Judgment.
would rcdoui greatly to the happiness and
prosperity Of the border States, and do much
towards saving and prcpetuating the Union.

A Tardy Acknowledgment.

Earl Russell, in his speech on the blockade
in Parlimeni, made this frank statement
mo one will say that there arc not judges
in America quite competent to decide que
tions of international lsw-judgcs who have
inherited the precepts and doctrines Of sucl
men as Chancellor Kent aud Judge Story
quite com peteut to pronounce judgment accor
ding to law aud who, believe, would not
have departed from the law in their decisions
in such cases.
When the Trent business first ca up, the
British law officers vehemently denied that
American jurists knew anything OF interna-
tional law. Earl Russell and the English
nation having since calucd down, We have
this tardy acknowledgment. Either the truth
has been very unciIiugly wrang from Lord
John, or the Crown lawyers committed fool
ish blunder at the outset.
