the French proposition iot the appoin,

differences with the rebels, shows that
tie prevalent idea that we have made no
progress since the war broke out is al'o-
gether fallacious. Mr.. Seward asserts.
ou the other hand, that 10 no war. ancient
or modern, begun without previous prep
aration, can a similar example Of success
be shown. He says that Of the Is slave

A BRAVE DEFENDER, - On tho

were the conjectures Of our citiz ns a;
to the cause OF the rumpus. Some on
looking out and seeing NJ light, came
to the conclusion, that the rebels had
taken GaIIipolis and Albany again,
else why should the bell be fuog and
