EUROPEAN NEws-The arrival of the steam
er Niagara at Halifax on Sunday puts Us in
possession of some brief but remarkably inter
esting details in regard to the correspondence
that had previously taken place between the
Governments of England and the United States
on various matters growing out of our civil war
A large number Of official documents upon the
subject have been laid before Parliament, some
of which indicate that war with England was at
one time most imminent. Even now it is said
that the complications have by no means been
adjusted, and that the vote in the House of
Commons, if it were taken, would show that
parties are pretty equally divided as respects
the policy which the British Government ought
to adopt with respect to American affairs. The
London Globe, however, states that if Lord
Palmerston were defeated he would dissolve
Parliament and appeal to the country. The
London Morning Herald says of the Ministerial
programme that cit is as difficult to criticise as
piece of blank paper On the day subse-
quent to the opening of Parliament Mr.. Gregory
denounced the Southern blockade as "wholly
ineffective, and simply blockade upon paper"
He gave notice of his intention to show the ma
ture of the blockade on a future occasion. Mr..
Bentinck expressed the opinion that if the
blockade were as represented by Mr.. Gregory,
its recognition would be violation of the rules
of international law, and that it was the duty of
the country to consider seriously the position in
which England would be placed. The London
Times, after commenting upon the extraordinary
expenses already incurred in the prosecution of
the war, declares that the subjugation of the
South and further union is impossible

our action, to make up the record of glory or
infamy. Any man can be brave when there is
no danger. Any soldier can be enthusiastic
when cheerc'l by Il round Of successes 1t is
adDersity that tries men, souls, and distinguish
e' between the true man and the falsc-the gen.
uine and the counterfeit Let us as individuals.
and let us as people, sez this opportunity for
true glory. Let us stimulate each others col,r-
age and emulate each others zeafl If one man
falls let two step forward to take his place -
This fight must be redeemed. We arM have
the victory
What if we have reverscs IT'S the fate of
war. A war without disasters is a winter with
out storms. But we will bear them like patri-
OTIS and brave men, and, both in our fortitule
and our daring, we will shew ourselves worthy
to be free. II we do not, we do not deserre to
be Free
Of the extent Of the disaster which we have
suffered at Donelson we are very unccrtaip.-
We must believe that the Federal account is
greatly exaggerated.

Proclamation from Gen. EIalleck.

81. LOUIS Feb. 24.-General Haleck has is
sued proclamation impressing on the officers
and soldiers of his army the. necessity of pre-
serving good order as the army advances into
Tennessee and other Southern States, to show
to our fellow -citizens there that we come merely
to crush out rebellion and restore to them peace,
etc. The regulations against pilaging, maraud-
ing and stealing, concealing slaves, etc., must
be strictly enforced. It does not belong to the
military to decide the relations of master and
slave. No fugitive slave, therefore, will be adj
mitted within our lines or camps.

An editorial IN the New 0rk TRIBUNE Of the
Oath inst, says:
The country and its brave defenders will hear
with joy that an advance of the Grand Army of
the Potomac is morally certain to be made forth
with. The considerations which impel this
movement are so obvious and pressing that our
military leaders could not have disregarded them
but in Difference to obstacles more unyieding
than mud, and more terrible than the remains
of Virginia Johnson's wasted and disheartened
forces at Centreville and Manassas. The vigor-
Gus reconnaissance of Saturday is the prelude
to stirring events. We shall be sorely disap-
pointed if there is a Confederate flag flying north
of Richmond at the end of March

From the Richmond Enquirer, Feb. 10
The News from Fort DOnelson.


The News from Fort Donelson.
The fortitude of our people is again to be
tried, and the metal Of which their courage is
made once more to be tested, by the last news
from Fort Done!son. We have met with heavy.
disaster there The wretches who are invading
our country were enabled, by the facilities Of
river transportation, to bring up reinforcements
to their previously whipped troops, and have
overwhelmed us with numbers. We are with
out the necessary facts and explanations to JUS
tify comment upon the tragedy of last Sunday.
We have had experience enough already to show
the folly of premature criticisms. We must
have patience. Such reports as have reached us
are chiefly from the North, and are given in the
teegraphic column.
But this thing we must do: By the mangled
body of every man who fell at the hands of the
scoundrel murderers who have invaded the
country of those who never did them any harm
by the homes which we have established by
our industry-by the beautiful land which we
have inherited from our fatbers-by the families
that we lovely all that is noble, patriotic and
brave, and in the fear and ferventy invoking
the favor Of God-we must all resolve, in our
Utmost souls, and vow with an irrevocable vow,
that we will resist the enemy to the last extre-
nifty and that We viii die if we cannot live
freemen!
And this VOW we must set about making
good Let towards t-emble if they will-let
vile niggarls count their treasures in agony
But what brave or generous citizen would wish
to survive the ruin of his country? Who would
desire to live when olous and vulgar despots
have foot upon our necks? No, fellow citizens
let us, as did our fathers, pledge our sacred
honor to each other and to the world that our
lives and our fortunes shall be devoted to the
vindication of our liberties, and that, if these are
lost, nothing shall survive the wreck, for nothing
would be worth saving.
Courage, then, people of the Confederate
States You have now one Of those "opportu-
mites which, if improved. make nations famous
and make brave men renowned. History awaits
