The consequences of the recent depOrable disaster

England has never been friendly nation; and, while
she has sen too timd to openly pr pose, as France

We have seen that previous TO this, Mr. Minister
Adams had By strange bundeT, created cause Of IT.
rittuOn between both England and France and this
country and although he has made the best explanation
be could under the circumstances still the irritation
v i'll continue after its cause has been removed
While We do not admit that this will result in an i'm
mediate recognition of the Southern Coniederacy as an
independent nation, there is no doubt but it will be
great step towards Ii is hopeless that after that re-
coguition remain at peace with those powers-
There will be hundreds of Of irration likely

The Fair at "BramhaII.~

The leading event of the week has been the
Ladies' Fair at ''Bramhall' Whether in its
origin, its attendant circums tauccs, or its
splendid success, it is most to be admired, we
cannot tell-certainly altogether, it has been
the most brilliant occasion of its kind ever
witnessed in this city
1t originated in a lofty public spirit, and
noble hospitalty-and thus it put all generous
sentiments in sympathy with it, and made all
streams, whether OF national love, municipal
honor, pride of citizenship, or the amenities Of
social life, Tributary to its own mighty food.
Never were the great attractive sentiments
more happily blended, and never was their be-
nign power more willingly confessed. All
things conspired to own the beauty in which
the occasion was conceived: and all hearts
confessed the happy!suggestion and the noble
enthusiasm. Nature herself seemed in sym
pathy with it, and October distilled the most
delicious perfume Of her days and nights.
But not more manifest was this flow of all
happy influences, even as the winds of heaven
converge upon the blazing mountan-top, or
the willow bends and bows to the sweet south
west, than the consent of noble minds from
afar, to the moral power and dignity of the
occasion. Men and women of genius, let loose
the first impress of their thoughts and they
found their way hither like doves to their win
dows The President waved his honest hand
in gracious acknowledgment, and Gen. Meade
relaxed his grasp of the sword and owned the
mightier power OF the pen. magnanimous
sentiments how wide your empire, how be-
nignant your sway!
There was a singular felicity in the attendant
circumstances of the Ladies' Fair Its great
claim was human thought that stood like
serene star in the heavens of our national idea
That claim was adorned and endued with great
persuasion by magnificent hospitality. Woe
be to us, and all mankind, when we no longer
delight to go to our neighbours houses Fare
well all amanity and grace of life when our
houses are closed to our neighbors, or locked
against glorious cause! Who is wise, will
learn that he who locks his house or his heart
shuts out more and richer than he shuts in.
We took ticket to the Fair, but We were in
troduced to 4 gallery of art--bronze, marble
and canvass-and rooms, whose architectural
beauty, combinations of form and proportion
were a study of delight! Never did nobler
cause receive nobler entertainment.
The success was most brilliant. As the oc-
casion moved on through the first day. il ac-
cumulated power and momentum which set
all minds free from anxiety, if they ever had
any; aud so strong is the desire in us all to be
in good company and on the right side, that
nobody could be found who ercr doubted The
glorious issue So may this splendid occa-
sion, on behalf of a noble cause, be epitome and
mcrocosn of that cause, May the country,
beloved of ALL though the prospecting power Of
Almighty Providence be carried through her
days of anxiety and doubling, until her glory
shall be SO clear and her redemption so nigh
that all men shall, be ashamed of their doubts
and flee to faith and victory.

We have heard great deal Of the superior
excellence Of Spsers Ssmbuci wine aud Of
its being adopted IN European hospitals in
preference to their own production. The most
scientific men of this country, and liquor as
saycrs appointed by government, pronounce il
valuable article. We cannot write more on
this subject now, but cheerfully publish the
following card, which speaks for itself
PORTLAND, Feb. l. 1862.
The undersigned, having become practically
acquainted with the Sambuci Wine manuiac-
tured by Alfred Speer. of New Jersey, would
say that he considers tia superior article, and
far preferable TO the quality of port wine fur
nished in this market at the same price.

We have heard persons who have used the
above wine express their astonishment that so
rich and mild wine is produced in this coun-

ply the demand.

Governor Coburn has obtained the right 10

erhoff, United States Quartermaster here, was
at first instructed to purchase the horses by
contract, but upon the request of his Excel
ieney, the government authorities at Washing
ton changed the direction, and ordered them
TO be purchased iri open market. This is as

at the same time give the full price paid ex-
eept some few expenses TO the first hands or

invariably adopted by the War Department.
