Gen. Sigcl ora Party spirit and
tlse Crisis.

General Sigcl has written letter to
some distinguished citizens of New York,
in which, after enforcing the necessity OF
olccting General Wadswcrth for Governor,
he says
Ii is an enormous crime TO expose devoted
soldiers to the fury of II united determined
and vigorous enemy, on account OF any
hesitancY to use the right means at the
right time, or by placing men III high and
responsible positions, who on account of
their former associations and pledges, can
never be trusted rs sincere friends of the
Republic, nor expected to strike a fatal
blow to treason and rebellion.
This Republic is in danger, and can not
be saved by those who sympathize with
the rebellion, who contemplate disgraceful
compromise, or who aim at the establish
ment of Slave Empire.
Peace cannot exist while two antagons-
tic principles govern in this land. There
fore every Republican and patriot should
stand to the cOlors which honor and pro-
tect him, aud should vote tor those candi-
dates only who arc tried like Wadsworth;
who are the most earnestly devoted to the
vigorous prosecution OF the war, and are
in favor of such means as will permanently
introduce liberty into the South.

TIA LAST OF THE BYRoNs.--A London
letter, some time since, gave the following
account of the death of the last descendant
of Lord Byron:
Byron Noel, Baron Of Ockham and Went
worth, died a. Brighton, at the early age of
twenty The heir of Il large fortune,
the grandson and last direct representative
Of the greatest OF Engjsl, poets, the young
peer had-so the world might have judged
"A brilliant career before him. He was the
son of Ada Byron, the poets only daughter,
and this is almost all that is known of
him positively. For some cause unknown.
and only family sur,nsed, the young baron
never assumed his rank, never took his
seat in the hou'e of Lords, never even
made his appearance in the fashionable
world. Very early in life he broke off
his connection with his family. willingly or
not, served on board ship as "a common
sailor, then supported himself as a hired
lahorer in a Thames dock-yald. and be-
came engaged dUf he was not actualy married)
to bar-maid in a sailors public house in
Wappiug. Then, in the first bloom of his
young life, he died suddenly by yhemOrrhage
of the lungs, and the court papers mention
his existence after years of silence. The
last of the Byrons is dead; and the story
OF the latest descendant OF that strange race
is buried in the grave with tncm.

THE ENGLISH GOVERN MENr BEGINNING TO UN-
DERsrAND AMERICAN RIoHTs.-By reference to
our telegraphic news from Europe it will be
seen that in reply to speech,of Lord Caernar-
Won in Parliament, making great noise about
the arrest of two Englishmen by the order of
Mr.. Seward, who discharged them on finding
that they were not guilty of the practices of
which they were suspected, Earl Russell states
that the American government has perfect
right to arrest British subjects, in time of civil
war, if II has reason to suspect that they have
been furthering the designs Of the enemy. The
English government Is in the habit of doing the
same thing itself. In ls4s it arrested and i'm
prisoncd in Ireland two American citizens,
named Bergen and Ryan, whom 1t suspected of
being about to participate in the revolutionary
movement set on foot in that island in that
year There was no proof whatever against
the men, and they were discharged on the con-
dition of leaving the country, but were never
compensated for their imprisonment. Yet the
English press in the interest Of the rebel Com.
missioners has violently denounced our gov.
ernment for exercising the same right as the
The New York herald., 1862-02-28

cations In that country has bern withdrawn. The most
intimate friends Of Genaral Scott say that who appre
cating the high honor sought be conferred he is
reluctant 10 undertake such duties on account only OF the
present state of his health.

The STRENGTH AND GREATNESS OF THE Re-
PUBLIc.-We have always been in the habit of
thinking ourselves great people; indeed, the
smartest nation in all creation But we little
knew till thisw broke out of our own great
importance in the eyes of other nations They
have shown that they regard the United States
as the most important Power in the world, not
only as preserving the balance of power on
this continent, but in Europe. Hence the de-
sire of the English aristocracy and government
TO see this counterpoise to British supremacy
swept away by permanent disruption of the
republic; and hence, too, the desire which Rus
.sia has shown to sustain it; for the disintegra-
tion of the United States would leave England
without her great maritime rival. The gratif-
cation with which the rendition of Mason and
Slidell, in accordance with the public law of
nations as determined by the great jurists of the
day, was received by all nations, showed the
deep interest they felt in the preservation of
our national existence, and how much they
hailed the removal of cause which threatened
to involve us in foreign war at time when
we were concentrating all our resources for the
suppression of the rebellion. In tho same man.
ner the news of the recent Union victories will
cause profound satisfaction and rejoicing even
among absolutists abroad; for they all hate
while they dread England. That we are en-
abled to carry on great war entirely on our
own resources, and yet preserve unimpaired
our general commercial, agricultural and ma
nufacturing prosperity, is one of the most re-
markable events in history. We have much
reason to congratulate ourselves, and there is
no better evidence Of our national strength
than is afforded by the ordeal through which
we are at present passing, only to emerge with
nntarnished glory before the world. Verify
we are great people.
The New York herald., 1862-02-28

British government, under circumstances OF
far greater necessity. Earl Russell, however,
seems to begin to understand our rights, and
that we dare to maintain them in the face OF
any amount of bluster and menace on the part
of the English press. This is only one of many
indications which show in what direction the
current of British opinion now runs.

The abolition journals must henceforth be re-
specially loyal or suffer the consequences.

The ExToRToNs OF SuTIERs.-The frauds Of
suffers are only second to those of government
contractors because they are committed on
smaller scale; but they are none the less to be
deprecated on that account. That these men
are responsible for large amount of human
misery is evident enough to any person who is
cOgnizant of their practices. By a system of
checks they offer inducements to soldiers to
purchase from them in advance of their pay,
till very often the whole of their three months
money is anticipated. In exchange for their
hard earnings the troops receive quantity of
trashy articles and unsound provisions at exor-
bitant prices. Thus, for instance, butter is sold
to them at thirty cents per pound cheese at
twenty-five cents, dried apples at twenty cents,
and tobacco at one dollar, while common note
paper is priced at two cents sheet, and apples
at five cents each. The prices of ar
dent spirits are, of course, much
more extortionate; and, Notwithstanding
the order against their introduction into the
camps, there is ample reason for believing that
they are still largely smuggled over the lines
by the suffers.
To the unscrupulous conduct of this class is
attributable much of the distress which pre-
walls in the homes of our soldiers; for the
money that ought to have gone to the support
OF their families has been diverted into the
pockets of a horde of harpies. All this sug-
gests the propriety Of the War Department
taking the subject into its consideration, and
moderating this evil by the enforcement of
stringent regulations.

MORE EVIDENCES OF THE CAvING In OF THE
REBELLIoN.-When we speak of the symptoms
of giving way in the Southern States, we do not
wish to be understood as including the princi-
pal leaders whose necks are in danger, nor a
large portion of the rebel army, particularly
its officers. But there are evident signs of
caving in among the deluded people. We re-
Gently referred to the reception our gunboats
met up the Tennessee river, as high as Flo
renee. The sentiments expressed by the peo-
pie at Clarksville and Nashville, on the Cum
berland, and the fact that from the latter city
steamboat was sent down to Clarksville to tow
up Union gunboat for its protection against
the rebels, speak volumes. The revolt among
the workmen at Richmond, an account of
which we published yesterday, and the state
ment of Commodore Goldsborough, published
in our telegraphic news from Washington,
that at Edenton he was visited by the au-
thoritios and others, many of whom professed
sentiments Of loyalty to the old Union, are among
the most cheering indications of returning rea-
son at the South. In connection with these
signs of the times we may refer to
the fact that short time ago a
flag Of truce came to Washington,
the object of which has never transpired. An
other flag of truce was sent from Columbus to-
the. Union gnnboats which lay opposite few
days ago. The object of that mission has not
been authoritatively published; but it is be-
lieved that both flags of truce had something
to do with proposition for an armistice, and
a convention of the people of oil the States,
North and South, to settle our national trou-
bles. A straw on the surface of the water in
dicates the direction of the current, and a
feather thrown up shows the way the wind
blows; and the facts to which we have referred
may be regarded as important, because indicat-
ing the returning flow Of the Union tide at the
South, which will soon set, in with irresistible
force.
