the vessels sold excepting one, the Broth.-
Jonathan, were accounted for to the Comn,r.
and those accounts acquiesced in. The des.,d
ant is now bound to account for the .procssd.
OF the Brother Jonathan. AS to the other ship,
nothing appears to warrant opening the AZ.
counts except in the case of the sale to VIM
Ii. Vanderbilt Of the steamers Pacific, Cortez
and Uncle Sam. In that case the purcsass,
was the son Of the defendant, unacquaintea
with The value of the ships, and having no &C.
casion for their purchase. He paid no monsv
thsrefOr, bit gave hs note to tie defendant
payable IN year, Of which there is o bill Of
sale from the Company 70 the defendant and
the latter paid ali expenses AND kept coutrol
and management. Of the vessels. The Court Il
Of opinion thot the purchase was an arrange.
ment to get the title out Of the Company into
the defendant, and cannot be upheld. The sals
is let aside and tho defendant required to nc.
count for the proceeds of the vessels.

quenE appropriation of the vessel by the
defendant to his own use. This steamer,
therefore, and the coal and other property on
the Isthnus, appropriated By tie defendant in
similar way, must be accounted for to tho
plaintiff.
The charge Of $1,000, for money paid to
Mrs. CazDeau, is correctly made by defend

there is some evidence that notes were
received BY the defendant for the amount Of

well as the Government whose existence

well as the Government whose existence
conferred political rights upon these masses
and imbued them with democratic ideas. The
leading traitors have periled their destiny on
the hope of success. Defeat would be their
ruin. but compromise would be both ruin and
degradation. Theirs is the madness of deSpora-
ton. and the contest which they have provoked
can have no end but victory or annihiIatiOn. 1t
ia the war of Slavery against democracy, aud
one or the other must 60 to pieces.
There was a small class OF shareholders at
the South in favor Of so regulating the system
of Slavery that it might continue to command
the liberation OF tho American mind aud con-
science. II was this clags which gave Gems
blance of responsibility TO the institution, but
by the great majority of shareholders these
views were set aside as Utopian; their plan Of
ameloraton was denounced es certain TO lead
to gradual emancipation. The Slayeboldlng
OiigarcLy demanded that Slavery should be the
controlling political and social influence, to
which everything else should be subordlnated,
whether in tho legislation Of the State, the
regulation Of public opinion, or the Govern
ment of the Union. 1t demanded allegiance
from all, and still further it required the abro-
CATION Of democratic government in the South,
lest democracy should some day be too strong
for its antagonist system. The Olisarchy was
right. Supreme dominion was necessity OF
its existence, nor can 1t suffer defeat which
does not involve its destruction.
If in clear view Of the purpose and motives
of tho Rebellion, compromise or peace on any
other basis than that of absolute subiugatiOn or
absolute Independence is still believed possible
the historical succession Of compromise efforts
il complete answer to such suggestions. The
extension of Slavery has been tried, but it only
grew more antagonistic TO free government
and more imperiOus in its demands. Conccs-
sion in all forms Las been prOfered, but no
concession can assuago the jealous autipalhies
Of shareholders to free industry. Political par
tsanship has sought 10 debauch public opinion
at the North, but in proportion to its sue
cess, Pro-savery spirit became more e1trav-
agaDt nnd aggressive, aud traitors at the
South were only led to entertain hopes OF
assistance from traitors at the North in their
plan for throwing off national Jurisdiction.
Tho Supreme Court Of The United States under
took to keep peace by do1ationalizing humanity,
bat il still failed to reconcile sectional an.agon
isns. From thc beginning to the end the
historical lesson ia the same and it teaches us
now Us it would have taught us at first that
we arc at war with power 10 which com
promise is impossible, aud which viii only be
satisfied with Independence and separate
national existence, or the complete suhjugation
Of the North.

Mr.. Theo. G. Callicot. Democrat, but not
the candidate of the Democratic caucus. In
stantly, the chamber was in an uproar. The

Members of that party launched upon long
speeches against time, filled with tho grOsseSt
personal abuse of Mr. Callicot. Democratic
members proclaimed that if elected, no should

lobbies responded with yells of approval aud

affect and dcmoralize the Armies of the Union

This assertion is made in the teeth Of our
unanswered demonstration that the Rebellion
is not aimed at the Administration, bat Mt hs

THE r:UGREAR OF MEDIATION.

How utterly interruptions are the leading
Journals in the interest Of the Shareholders
Rebellion, and how assiduously they have blown
the bubble of Mediation into balloon fraught
with unutterable perils aud evils to the Union
cause, we have repeatedly Indicated. Thus
The n. Y. Herald, while affecting to deprecats
and assail Mediation, never ceases to encourage
the Rebels To hold out a little longer and they
may safely count on French interpretation Ill
their behalf. To correct lite misrepresentation
is simply labor lost--they ore repeated next
day with an effrOntery that borders on the
sublime, and those who show that all the Me-
di,tion really intended is q very harmless mat
ter are charged with iaroking the Intervention
of France. and assailed with all manner OF
grouudless ineulpations, with manifest intent
to throw dust in the public eyes, and deepen
tue current impression that Mediation insures
the triumph of Disunion.
TIE Times (London) differs from Tile Herald
only in being an open aaherent Of tho cause
which the latter usually supports only by indi'
rection. Here is q sample Of The Itness
