ENGLAND's POLICY.

In former papers we have briefly
noticed some facts illustrative of the
foreign policy Of the British govern
ment. In so doing we have connect
ed them somewhat with the events ot
the day, in order to show how her
principles vanish upon interest de-
mands il, and how, regardless Of con-
sisieney, she condemns in Others,
what in her own history she considers
worthy of the highest praise. But
our prii cipal object has been 10 show
that American citizens, especially,
can place no dependence on her pro-
fessions of good faith to show how
established policy, makes her, in pc
culiar manner, an enemy Of this ma
ton. For the better furiherance Of
this design, let us endeayor to discov-
er from the facts already stated, the
one great motive that controls the
foreign policy Of England.
The aristocracy and the CONNER
eial, and manufacturing classes, con-
troll the British government. Ia home
affairs the commercial and manufac-
turing interests have been on the side
Of liberty, opposed the aristocracy,
and gained freedom sufficient to Sc
cure the safely Of the poor citizen,
though not 10 secure his happineSs.--
In matters of foreign policy they have
usually been united in effort with the
aristocracy, partly from the same,
partly from different motives. The
policy upon which an hereditary aris-
iocraey and the greedy capitalists of
of moneyed aristocracy, could COR
daily unite, We could not reasonably
expect to be entirely free from faults.
Bot il is far worse than we should
naturally expect. We should sup
pose that justice would sometimes be
lost sight of in the eager haste for
wealth. But we should not expect to
find in wholly forgotten. That it is
wholly forgotten, is an indisputable
fact. The extension of territory and
the building up Of commerce for the
purpose of increasing wealth. is the
one thing thought, talked, and acted.
II is so continually and so universally
dweit upon, tia at last, !, comes to be
synonymous with patriotism and chris
tianity. They seem TO deceive them
selves and think that they really arc
serving The best interests Of humanity.
To conquer foreign people and cloth
them with the badges OF seryitude, is
called bringing heather people un-
der The benign influences Of chris
tian government. According to them
every soldier is teacher, every
merchant missionary, and every
ship as good as bible. With this
sophisiry they attempt to blind their
eyes to tyranny and inhumanity.---
Thus, TO conquer becomes christian
duty, and vessels laden with the riches
Of The conquered, the legitimate re-
suits Of good government.
The interests Of trade have always
occupied the whole attention Of Eng.
land and outweighed all Others con.
sideraiicns. For ibis she has fille3

For lhis she has q serted lie rriuei-

PINE TRgE SHILLIEs.---T. Hast

session of Pine Tree Shilling which
was dug up some lS months since on

1852, and is consequently gIl years
old. In addition to its age the pine

A STUPENDous WoRK.--A won
derful plan has been exhibited recent
ly in Paris for a railroad across the
simplon pass. The line has been
most carefully surveyed for four
months by Italian engineers, who have
passed that time among eternal SHOWS,
and now exhibit their astonishing de.
sign: and declare the work praciible at
an ele vation OF three or four thousand
feet above the level Of the sen. The
estimated cost is sevcnty-two millions
Of francs. The object Of course, Is to
connect the Swiss Line Of Geneva and
the Valley to the Rhine, shh the Ital-
ian Cis Alpine lines. During four
months a band Of engineers and their
assistants, numbering about forty indi-
viduals, have traced Tint line over
mountain SUBMITS, across valleys, gor-
ges, and precipices, living oil the time
in temporary sheds and carrying with
them food, clothing, and all the neces-
saries of existence into the very heart
Of unexplored mountain forests. Out
of about seventy miles OF railroad thus
labouriously laid down IN these places,
nearly twenty win be in tunnels and
as many more In galleries, with latent
openings, having arcades on one side
like those Of the Rue de Riyoli. The
appearance on the plans Is wonderful
and magnificent in the highest degree,
and appears the ne piaa ultra Of the
daring Of modern science. The exc
cution is calculated TO occupy fve
years and when achieved will more
than rival the famous tunnel now be-
ing performed through Mount Gents.

A STORY OF A FEMALE SOL
DER.

The Louisville Journal Of the 29th
alt. narraies the following romantic
story:
"A fen weeks since a captain, ac-
eompanied by young soldier, appar-
emily about seventeen years Of age,
arrived in this city in charge of some
rebel prisoners. During their stay in
the city the young soldier alluded to
had occasion 10 visit headquarters, and
at once attracted the attention OF Col.
Mundy as being exceedingly sprightly
and possessed Of more than ordinary
intelligence. Being in need Of such a
young man at barracks No. i, the
Colonel detailed him for service in
that institution. He soon won the es-
teen Of his superior officers and be-
came a general fayorite with all con-
nscied with The barracks. A few
days ago however. The startling news
was disclosed that the supposed young
man was a young lady, and the fact
vas established beyond doubt by sol-
der who VAS raised In the same town

people, % live On the fpoils of their
Office. The riches OF distant nations
arc drawnio ihe center Of power
fier conqueriug sword las disregard
ed the independence and the rights
of nations. Ruler after ruler has been
driven from his native palace nation
after nation has been bloited from
the map, and become part Of the
British dominions. The boundaries
Of her empire rest in far Off climes,
and peoples to whom her language is
laraon and her customs a terror, feel
the power Of a nation Of whose loca-
ton they are ignorant, and whose
very existence is a mystery. One
thing Is certain--as she follows Rome's
example, she will meet Rome's fate.--
Tie fate Of all di.jonted empires of
diseordant elements, will soon beiall
her. A Russian army on the Indus,
and the one sixth Of the human race
which she now rule with despotic
sway, will burst from her grasp. An
army Of Irish Americans on the coast
Of Ireland, and the connection which
forms the blot upon her record, black
above all others, will have ended for
ever An American army on the
Northern frontier, and the fruits Of the
Peace OF Paris, will soon melt away.
Revolution will rage at home while
the exiremities are dropping of, and
thus the great British empire on which
The sun IL his course never sets, will
pass into history.

D
/ 10 The service ten months, she desired
to serve during the war. Her wish
was accordingly granted, and she is
still At her post
~Ws learned the facts above stated
/ yesterday, and took occasion to visit
the barracks, and were introduced 10
Frank Mariin' cher assumed name
and cleaned the following incidents
connected with her extraordinary ca
reer during the past ten months.
Frank was born near Bristol, Penn
| sylvania, and her parents now reside
in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania,
where she was raised. They are high
ly respectable people, and in very good
circumstances. She was sent TO the
convent in Wheeling, Virginia, at
twelve years Of age, where she remain
ed until the breaking out of the war,
having acquired superior education
and all the accomplis hments OF modern
usage. She visited home after leav-
ing the convent, and after taking leave
of her parents, proceeded to this city in
July last, with the design Of ehlisting
in the Second East Tennessee cavalry,
which she accomplished, and accom-
panied the army of the Cumberland
to Nashville. She was in the thickest
Of the fight at Murfreesboro, and was
wounded in the shoulder, but fought
gallantly, and waded Stone river into
Murfreeboro on that memorable Sun
day on which our forces were driven
back She had her wound dressed,
and here her sex was disclosed, and
Gen. Rosecrans made acquainted with
the fact. She was accordingly mus
tered out OF service, Notwithstanding
her earnest entreaiy to be allowed to
serve the cause she loved so well.
The General was very favorably i'm
pressed with her daring bravery, and
snperintended the arrangements for
her safe transmission TO her parents.
She left the Army ofthe Cumberland
resolved to enlist again in the first reg
iment she met. When she arrived at
Bowling Green, she found the Eighth
Michigan there, and enlisted, since
which time she has been connected
with II.
"She is represented as an excellent
horseman, and has been honored with
the position Of regimental bugler in
the regiment. She has seen and en-
dured all the privations and hardships
sncident to the life Of soldier, and
gained an enviablc reputation as scout,
having made several wonderful expe-
ditions, which were attended with
signal success.--Frank is only eighteen
years of age, quite small, and beau
tifulfgure. She has auburn hair, which
she wears quite short, and large blue
eyes, beaming with brightness and in
tclligence. Her complexion is natural
ly very fair, though slightly bronzed
at present from the effects of exposure.
She is exceedingly pretty, and very
amiable. Her conversation denotes
more than ordinary accomplishments,
and, what is stranger than ali, she ap-
pears very refined in her manners,
giving no evidence whatever Of the
rudeness which might naturally be ex-
pected from her late associations.
"Frank informs us that she has dis
covered great many females in the
army, and is now intimately acquaint-
ed with lady who is Lieutenant in
the army. She has assisted in bury
ing three female soldiers at different
times, whose sex were unknown TO any
bot herself"

The Presidents proclamation, threaten
ing retaliation for rebel bsrbsrities prsc-
tieed upon either our white or eolOred
troops, gives unbOunded satisfaction. The
Government is in earnest, and just re-
talistory vengeance will be sure to follow
rebel atrocities.
General Thomas is speedily to return to
the Lower Mississippi, and resume the
work Of organizing negro regiments. He
declares that he hopes before winter to
have hundred thousand negro troops in
in the field. This looks like business.
This fighting the devil with fire will be
effective.
Meade and Lee are supposed to be get
ting into close quarters. Exciting news is
predicted from the Potomac Army within
the next ten days. Whether there is a
ageneral battle this side Of Richmond or
not, it is certain, if Lee retreats, Meade
will follow him to the fortihcatiOns at
Richmond, and invest him theIe in close
siege. Meade will not relax his pursuit
Of Lees army till he annihilatss it. Mark
the prediction,
Owing to the eOwardiee Of Kentucky
regiment, the rebels captured and burned
forage train Of sixty wagons at Stan
ford, Ky.
By intelligence from Washington, we
are sdvised, that the draft will commence
in New York during the early psrt Of
next week.
Savannah is left without rebel troops
for its defense. Tie cidzsns are sending
their valusbles of in anticipation of 4
visit from the Is Yankees y
Z The brave General Logan is appointed
to the command Of the Sixteenth Army
Corps. A compliment we'll merited. The
army has no more gallant officer.
