highest mark. Their publication at this time
should dispel any lingering apprehension that
the policy of Emancipation may not be sterny
enforced and persisted in. Were the President
at all hesitating or in doubt on this point,
these dispatches would inevitably have been
suppressed. As q commentary on and elucida-
ton Of the Message, they have cheering @g-
pifcance and substantial value. They can
hardly have been received with more satisiac-
ton by Mr.. Adams than they will be by tho
great mass of our thoroughly loyal citizens.
Coz. Seward undoubtedly risks something
by this early publication of dispatches relating
to affairs of the highest moment, some OF them
still unconcluded Were he animated by
desire to appear always right always president,
always consistent, he would probably have
withheld some that he now publishes. II he
desired to have the British Cabinet believe
that We think its treatment Of US unexcep-
tonable he doubtless would have kept back
good many of them. But no has certainly
gatifed a natural and proper public solicltude
by this publication, and we trust be will prove
10 have done it at no expense TO our National
interests and with no undue oflense to foreign
susceptibilltles.
1T will be noted That the correspondence
elected by the captures of our merchant ships
by the Liverpool armed and manned corsair
q" Alabama" is withheld from publication. 1t is
of course not yet concluded.

SHIPMENTS FRow NEW-YORK FOH
TEE FRENCSs ALs7sY En- MEXICO.

We beg leave to invite attention to certain
facts now transpirng. in this city, having vital
connection with the French INVASION and per-
haps permanent conquest, of Mexico. The
question is one Of the gravest Importance.
The French army cannot move without var-
ous heavy supplies. and directions accordingly
have been sent to purchase them in this mar
ket, and shipments We learn have already
taken place. These embrace large orders. as
we are informed and we believe our iuforma-
ton is strictly accurate, for machinery and
materials for the military railway now being
constructed between Vera Cruz and Orizaba.
Three large ships have been openly chartered
and freighted with general supplies. Still later
orders have come hither, according to adyices
from Vera Cruz, for one thousand mules, with
their harness, and five hundred wagons.
OF the Interior designs of the French En-
peror we can only judge by what we imme-
diately see. And what is that An army, a
vast army, Of 10000 men, which may b. im-
mediately doubled, invading another nation,
and a weaker, for a principle Those who
believe that France makes inyaslOns for prin-
ciple are welcome TO do so. We find one rul-
ing design in them--conquest, aggrandzemen',
power The Mexcans are the best judges Of
their own form of government. 1t may not bee
1t is not-the beat, practically speaking, III
the world; but they alone are responsible for
il. The French residents IN the City of Mex.
leo have united in protest against the French
invasion, TO upset the popular government, add
put we know not what 10 its stead-but a
so-called protectorate We may say at best;
though the probabilities seem clear that con-
quest and colonization are aimed at. Instead
therefore, of having all inofiensiye neighboT, We
are to have military nation, which makes
war periodically, on our Southern base liue.
Are We therefore, willing 10 look on and see
all the military supplies mentioned above coolly
sent from thi. port Of NewYorA to AID that
great invasion
We naturally complain Of the course Of
England, ga neutral" toward u.s. exhibited in
her shipment of munitions and supplies, and
the ittiug.out Of the 1890 pirate. u what
essential respect does the course Of England
differ from that of our own IN allowing these
shipments to Mexico for the absolute neces-
sites Of the invading army t. take place
Allowing them, TOO, at tins moment, when
Louis Napoleon has just been baiIled N bis
efforts to procure a European coalition TO III
tsrfcre in our affairs, and give preP)nderaace

We ask attention TO this important matter,

ncighbors but 70 ourselves.

NEWS OF TIE DAY.
THE WAR.

We have no important news from Gen. Burn
sides army; from Southern papers we learn that
our army was, on Saturday, crossing the river, and
a battle was expected.
Our special dispatch from Nashville, under date
of Dec. Z, records the disagreesble news thai a
brigade in Dumonts Division, consisting of the
10Th Illinois, the lO6,h and lCSth Ohio, and de-
tschment of tie I'd Indiana Cavalry, Were surprised
on that morning, and alter sharp fight defeated
and captured, with loss OF % Or 60 killed and
wounded. The same dispatch records other small
captures, which, TO say te least, show great rare-
lessness somewhere Another dispatch states that
a fight had occurred, but Gays nothing about sur
prise. 1t further saJs that Morgan attacked Gen.
Fry in the afternoon, at Gsllatn, but was re-
pulsed with heavy loss. Gen. Fry has been re-
enforced, and is now pursuing the enemy closely"
If the following news should prove coutrabanJ,
the responsibility must res; with somebody beyond
New.YoTk: A Fortress Monroe dispatch or letter. Of
Dec 6, says that division commanded by Gen.
Emory, sailed South from here last night. It's des-
tineton ID TO reinforce Gen. Foster il North Caro-
lima. The Rebels threaten to prevent him from adj
vancing by way Of Weldon to Ssfolk to reinforce
Banks in his advance from Suffolk upon Petersburg,
In overwhelming force.
The Riclmoad Dispatch Of Saturday says that
the reports from fredericksburg were that pretty
severe skirInsbDg occurred in the neighbOrhood of
Port Royal on Friday morning but 81 It'll what sue
cess could no; be learned The general aspect OF
afIrs is represented to DO such Indicate ba,
tie. The columns Of the enemy have been moved 70
the 'front.' and much activity is obsesy4l.e along
their liues.
st. Louis dispatches Of the 9TH st ta that aiyices
from tue SouthWesi tonight say that the Rebos, NJ

tempted to force Gen. Biuni's position at Cane Ili
Ark, yesterday, but were driven back. TINS morn
ing the Rebels drove Gen. Blunt's rickets three
miles, but on the arrival Of resnfoTcemelts, the
Rebels were again driven back.
The United States hospital transport Daniel
Webster arrived at this port Yesterday from AoIaa-
dria Va, 9Th inst. She brings 81 sick and wounded
soldiers She had in tow the hospital ship ST.. Blsic,
with about the same number on board, and on Sun
day was compelled to drop her on accoun, Of heavy
weather and very high sea.
We learn from Richmond that Gen. Burnside
has been removed from. tie command Of TIC Army Of
TIE Potomac. and Gen. Hooker appointed il lis
place.
We learu from North Carolina tlat the Rebels
intend TO abandon all that part Of the safe east OF
the Wilmington aud Weldon Railroad.

Though we have chosen not TO print the
disgusting testimony of this person in the case
of DR.. Brown, the alleged abortionst, wo trust
that good will result from Judicial aud other OK
posurcs OF such inlquities as eliminated in the
death Of poor Clementna Anderson. We can.
not doubt that thousands of gay, thoughtess,
i-trancd but still innocent girls will be saved
from ruin by the publicity given to tho facts
IN this case. The hbertine spreads bis snarcs
in vain for the simple and the crcdulous if

of it on his own part. moralist and law
reformer. Until we read his testimony before
Judge McCunn on Saturday, We had no ade-
quate conception of the depths to which de-
pravity and vany could descend. That n
seducer could 70 defane and blacken his vic
tim, who had yielded Ier life to his lust, gives
us clearer idea of the cold.heartcd baseness
essential to tho character of systematic be-
trayer of female innocence. There have been
objections made to the punishment of aeducers
BY law; but any one who reads Snms's testl-
mony must realize that if there be no law
for the punishment Of such scoundres, there
certainly ought to be.
