TEE Pacific ATTITUDE OF GREAT BRrrAM-
That England is anxious to see this war over -
soon possible there is every indication and tAe
pacific attitude which she has assumed since the
settlement of the affair of the Trent is expres-
sive Of general revulsion of feeling in orr
favor. Every mail tends to reassure us on the
subject Of foreign Intervention. We learn ~
the North American that in letter to Ler6
Lyons, dated as recently as the 18th Of Februa-
ry. Earl Russell said that the fact Of ships hsv-
ing successfully run the blockade does not pro
vent the blockade being effective, and he argued
that neutral States ought to exercise great eau
ton with regard to de tacto blockade, an1
ought not to disregard it unless the power a
the blockade should be abused. This is emi-
nently satisfactory, and we are glad to see thaA
the British government takes such fair and ~
sible views of our affairs.

THE STREETS AND THE CLEANING CONTRACT
The season Of hard frost and driving snow hav-
ing passed, it in time that the contractor for
street cleaning should cart away the hillocks
of snow and accumulated refuse that impede
the public traffic in the side streets. He should
also remove as much as possible of the slush
which tleluges portions Of our thoroughfaes,
and commence general spring brushing and
cleaning of the whole city. Now is the time to
DO it, and if he neglects his duty we hope the
city will neglect to pay his little bill when he
next presents It. We want the street cleaning
contract to be something more than mookery.

SYMPATHY or FRANCE WITH THE UNITED
SrArEs.-By reference to the curious debate in
the French Senate, which we publish to-day, it
will be seen that the historical and traditional
sympathy of the French nation with the United
States il still fresh in the heart Of the nation.
The hostility to any alliance with England Is
manifest, and an alliance with the United States
is openly advocated. The Marquis dc Boissy
suggests that the money spent by France in tho
war in the Crimea and the war in Italy would
be sufficient to carry her standards to London.
For his part he did not fear the English France
could easily conquer them If she did not give
them time to form new coalition against herr
and the wisest policy Of France was to culti-
vate her ancient friendship with America, Z" o
nation whose alliance would always be pro
cious advantage to her" For " the humiliation
Of the United States would give England the
supremacy of the seas" and that, argues the
French Senator, can never be permitted by
France In this debate England is "a Power
enduring everything for the sake of money, and
only naughty to the weak"-a Power which, in
the case of the United States, dares not venture
on line of policy which is not that of France.
Can anything be more insulting to proud AL
bion? A terrible war between France and
England is only question of time, and in that
day France will need our friendship. II would
seem that it is to the friendship Of France the
American republic is indebted for its exemp-
ton from British hostilities. During our ma
tional troubles, France" says Mr.. Billault, the
French Minister, " France will never forget the
bonds Of kindness which unite her to the United
States.n Let France be assured that this senti-
ment Is reciprocated by the American govern
ment and meets with cordial response In the
hearts Of the American people,

The Pnors OF Our WAR vEssxLs.-Here is q
class of men deserving of the notice Of the
government and Of the gratitude of the people.
They stand up bravely in the pilot houses,
which are marks to be shot at by rebel cannon,
and, without the aid of the excitement of WELD
ing weapon or commanding either soldiers
or sailors, quietly and calmly face death for
their country. They gre true heroes, equal to
any in the army and navy, and superior to the
majority in either. They are worthy Of all
honor and renown.

The EFFECT or THE REoENr News IN Es-
RoPE.-The British journals have been complain
ing of the uninteresting character of the recent
news from this country. Therewas too much sp-
parent inaetion for them to find texts for their
leading articles and our files by the last steam
or disclosed the singular absence of single
leader on American affairs in any of the London
journals. Having written articles about the
lack Of incident in the American news, they
hnally sabsided into utter silence. But we
think that if they have not been aroused from
their repose by the intelligence of the capture
Of Fort Donslson, the occupation of Nashville
and other Union triumphs, they will at least bs
awakened to unusual activity by the events Of the
last few days. That dramatic sea fight In
Hampton Roads ought to, and doubtless win.
afford them unlimited scopefOr the exercise q
their peculiar, genius. IL is . subject teeming
with suggsstiveness, and they may speealsts
upon the consequences, present and future, ol
the exploits Of the Monitor and Merrimsc ddjs
fssitum. They will have ample material for
elaboration and prognosticatiea in our naval
achievements along the Southern coast, and they
can read and reflect upon our total defeat Of ths
reDel army under Price; McCslloch, Van Dors
and Mcintosh, after three days hard fighting.

and exert a great moral influence in Europe.
will be the announcement that the rebels have

Ccntreville and the neighborhood, arc now in

ANOTHER JAPANESE EMBAssY.-The long
talked Of Japanese Embassy to the gov
ernments of Europe is now on board . Bri-
tish vessel Of war on its way to England, where
it may be shortly expected to arrive. The ice
of their exclusiveness having been broken, the
Japanese about two years ago sent an embassy
to this country, from which they carried back
numerous presents and specimens Of our manu-
faotures We provided vessels forstheir trans
port, and entertained them Hospitality, but 80
far we have had NO return for our trouble and
expense in the way of an increase Of our trade
with the sunny empire. Having been
to America they are now going to Europe,
whore mere curiosity will doubtless secure
for them . cordial reception, although the

Whether British expectations of the commercial
results of the embassy will ever be realized, we
have only our own experience to assist us in
forming an opinion; but with the lspse of time
it is not impossible that moderately large
trade may spring up between Japan and the
Western nations

The NAVAL HEROES OF THE WAR.-We pub
lish to-day Commodore Dupont's interesting
report Of the capture of Brunswick. These re-
ports, together with the glorious exploits of
Commodore Foote and Lieut.. Worden, and tho
thrilling account of the heroism Of the gallant
officers and sssmen Of the Cumberland, who al
lowed her to 90 down with her colors flying
rather than surrender, prove that the valor
which has ever distinguished that arm of the
service has not degenerated, but, on the con-
trary, shines forth with more brilliant lustre
than ever in this hour of the nations trial.
Nothing, perhaps, in history excels the courage
of the heroes of the Cumberland, who stood to
their guns till the water ran into the portfolios,
and, as they sank in the waves, shouted mo

The University.

We are indebted to valued friend for an inter-
esting notice of the late commencement at the Uni
versity. The times and the seasons prevented the
usual throng, but the exercises were highly inter-
esting
The number of students was comparatively small
for that popular institution the past session. but the
condition of the country and the enthusiasm and
patriotism of the boys of the South, prevented a
large number.
The regular exercises of the institution will be
resumed at the usual period. Nothing but actual
possession by the enemy will cause suspension of
the Institution. Let the boys be sent up in due
time The rumor that the University would sus-
pend, is without foundation.

DISASTER AT THE POWDER MnL-We are panied
to record melancholy disaster at the powder mill
on Monday morning last about four miles from
this City. Three of the workmen were engaged
in the finishing house, when it was suddenly
blown up dreadfuly mangling and killing all three
viz: Mr.. Moonahan, Mr.. Rigsbee and Mr. Warren.
The force of the conclusion hurled them from 20 to
60 feet In few seconds after, the pulverizing
house and stamping room were blown up, in the
first of which Mr. Struce, the superintendent was
at that time engaged and is supposed to have been
killed instantly but his body was not discovered
until it was nearly destroyed by fire which con-
sumed the buildings. The hands in the other
houses not far off made their escape, with slight
injury. Three of the tenements remain On every
part of the premises the effects of the explosion
to be seem 1t is supposed that only about 1000
pounds of powder, nearly ready for USE were de-
stroyed The report of the explosion was distinct
ly heard in the City. The destruction of life, as
well as the loss of so important an instrumentalty
in carrying on the war, is to be deplored. The
cause of the explosion is not known.
