GiviHty is Fortune
Givility Is a fortune in siselff, ff5l. a eour-
toous man always succeeds ID life, and
that even when persons Of ability some
times fail. The famous Dakeaof Marl-

Of him by a contemporary that his iagre-
able manners often converted a6 enemy
into friend and, BY anothef, that twas
more pleasing to osbe denied a favor By his
grace, than to rsoeiFe6he from oshermen.
The gracious manners Of Charles James
Fox preserved him from personal dislike,

FROM the tone of the British Journals
We are induced to believe that England
is at the bottom. Of the resistance toqths
draft for the Federal army. It is quite,
natural that men should be opposed to-
eonseriptions of the kind, and that suok
a measure would be more. espeeially.un-
popular in a free country ike America.
1t is, therefore, the more easy to stir up
opposition to it. English gold is at work
in New York. Her enissaries are there
taking advantage Of the popalar5preju-
diees, and doing more to damage the
cause Of the Union thansif,she had aetu-
ally recognized the independence Of the
Southern States. < :
The London Times has an. article,
gloating over the ANTICIPATED resistance
Of Governor Seymour TO the draft. 1t
would certainly be playing the game Of
the enemy to perfection. England would
give the Governor a million pounds stsr-
hing if he could be induced TO tax su, h
a step. It might tend to the proloaga-
ton Of the war, or the destruction Of the
Union, but most unquestionably to the
complete annihilabion of Bhe Irish infu-
ence in America, and an end of all hope
for the freedom Of fatherland IN our gen

their own in battle, and undeF whose
