Arrival of the CITY of New York.

New YORK, May 18.-The steamer City of
New York from Liverpool, May 9th, and
Queenstown 9TH, arrived at midnight.
A deputation of Trades Unionists, headed
by MIR. Bright, presented an address adopted
at a late meeting of those sympathizing with
the North, to Minister Adams, who made a
speech expressing great pleasure at the recep-
ton of the address. He admitted the difficult
ties of steering clear of collision between the
two nations, but trusted that friendly relation
would be maintained. He asserted, that, not
w~ithstanding the tone of some of the Ameri-
can speakers and journals, there is no nation
for which America entertains greater regard
than for England, and if the real sentiments
of each people could be clearly established to
each other, he would have no fear of a coils
ion. He believed that the Trade Unionists
had taken the right course to produce such
understanding.
The London Times looks upon Minister Ad-
ans speech as most seasonable and timely,
and looks forward, without mistrust, for mu-
tual forbearance. ENGLAND, it says, "must
some Interruptions to trade, and the
Americans must tolerate the shortcomings in
consideration of the difficulties of neutrals."
In another article, the Times argues that it
behooves England to look lemently on the
proceedings of Admiral Wilkes, in view of the
maintenance Of her own rights when she be-
comes a belligerant.
The London Observer, in a pacific editorial
credits the Lincoln Government with a desire
to cultivate friendly relations.
Layard, in the House of Commons, explain
ed the hauling down Of the American flag at
the Island Of Sombrero during the stay there
of the British man-of-war Phalon. He denied
American jurisdiction and claimed that the
Island had long been a part Of the British pos
sessions in the Caribbean sea. There had been
no correspondence IN the subject.
Russias reply to the Powers on the Polish
question is published. 1t agrees to negotiate
i'll a pacific manner on the basis of the treaty
1915. The reply is not generally regarded
as satisfactory.
The Polish insurgents continue active.

WASHINGTON, Nav Is

W~AoHINUIUN' IHdy 10.
The following was received to-day:
MEMPHIS, May 17th-To Gen. Halleck ::
Rebel papers of the 4th from Vicksburg and
Jackson, report that Gen. Grant defeated
Greggs' Brigade at Raymond, Mississippi, on
Tuesday, the 18th. Rebel loss is admitted in
the papers at 700. Next day Greggs was re-
inforced by Gen. w. H. F.. Walker, of Geor-
gia, when he was attacked at Mississippi
Springs, and driven towards jackson on Thurs
day.
A telegram from Canton says the Federals
had taken jackson from the east, probably by
a cavalry movement. General Joseph John
son arrived at jackson on the 18th, and went
out towards Vicksburg, with three brigades.
He must have been west of Jackson when the
capture was made by our forces.

The Green Bay Advocate, in times of peace
a partisan paper of the Democratic order, and
not very luke warm at that, but now a patri-
OF paper, holds the following language, which
is worthy Of all acceptation.
Sin the course of our own political expert
ence, brief and rugged even as it has been, we
have been able to determine several problems.
One Of them is, that nothing political ever be-
comes chronic. Politics are from necessity as
changeable as the moon. There has been a
time, for instance, when the Democratic party
has been p%re-eminent in sustaining the rights
Of the South. But we think the time has come
when our friends are absolved from that task.
'"The man who turns coldly against this
war because it is badly managed, had better
have a milestone around his neck and be sunk
to the bottom of the sea when the reckoning
m hereafter. The war is for the preser-
walton of the American Republic against an
attempt to destroy it. If it is mismanaged
and laundering, if it is used for speculation
and crime by officers employed in it if men
grow rich by preying upon it if its generals
are incompetent and traitors and if it march
es towards the desired result with a discour-
aging pace, these are only more reasons for a
giving it renewed and unhesitating support.
II there were a thousand other charges of mis-
management, they would furnish a thousand
other reasons for additional strength

what the Rebels would Iik 10 Do.

The Chattanooga CTenn.) Re5eJtalks in this
fierce style:
"What do we hope for? Not for peace
more than revenge upon a worthless, heartIess
cruel enemy. We hope andhope it earnestly,
to live long enough, if no longer, to see our
cavalry trooping through every city, village
and hamlet of the Yankees. To see their wo-
men begging protection as ours have pleaded,
with fearful eyes, to fends in Yankee uni
forms, to be protected from their brutal sol
diery. To see the plows torn from the hands
of their farmers, and broken ito pieces-their
fences laid waste, and their homes in flames
their wives and children driven into exile,
and hooted from their own territory by an in
vading enemy. We hope to see all this, and
speedily. We have been on the defensive too
Iong-we should begin now to try a few ex-
perimental lessons on the aggressive. This
will bring peace when all other antidotes fail.
The Rebellion will not be crushed. The Alb
clifton despot must be, if We SO determine.

troops was made to draw the rebels forward,
but they retreated, and our forces now occupy
a strong position in and around Carrsville.-
Our loss is two killed, twenty-one wounded,
and six missing. Our forces are busy remov-
ing the rails from the railroad, and the whole

The WOoI~ w

The Wool Market-The season for the new
clip Of wool is c.Jse at hand and growers are stud
wing the quotations of the Wool market. The
quotations in the Western market reports are
merely nominal. The Milwaukee papers quote
it at 5Oa6p c., while the Chicago papers make no
quotations at all. In Detroit fine feeces are selling
at 65a68c. The Boston Com Bulletin of the 10th
inst, speaking of the W pol market says
Owing to the unexpectedly low bids on Cow
ernment contracts for army clothing. and the cons
sequent sudden collapse ofthe Kersey speculation
the demand for coarse and medium grades of Wool
has somewhat abated, and these descriptions are
not held quite as firm. The present inquiry is
mostly for fine feeces. which are relatively better
and more active than for some time past The
sales of domestic for the week amount to some
$50 coo lbs, at range of 7OaSOc for fleece, and
7OaS5c for pulled, the latter figure for standard
all nar and nyfra.

A Rebel view ofthe Situation.

FORT MONROE, May 16.
The Richmond Enquirer of the 10th inst.
contains the following editorial:
There is evidently to be an active summer
campaign. The plan of the enemy seems to
be to keep our attention constantly exercised
at every point at once, so that no part Of cur
whole wide frontier may be freed from the
urgent and immediate apprehension of an at
tack. Then they can strike where they think
our lines weakest, or where our defences are
least prepared, and if r~epuIsed, they can re
tire and direct a blow at some other quarter.
In the mean time they can bag much plum
der, and cause much sorrow and heartbreak-
ing among our people, by expeditions through
thinIy peopled regions, destitute of troops.
They can also force more and more of our
people within their lines TO take their hated
oath, for a quiet life, and to save their prop
erty from cOnfiscation.
Thus they.can demoralize and rob us with
i'll our own borders, preparing all the while for
serious assaults, and delivering them Just
when they are ready, and where they
choose.
1t IS hard to say at what point they are
most active just now. If one looks southwest
ward 1t would seem the state of Mississippi is
the region ofthe most extensive operations.
Immense armies are gathering in and around
Vicksburg, and while preparations are in
progress for a new assault in that place, the
country is devastated and the people plum
dered, by cavalry raids; but at the very mo-
ment Charleston is kept on the qmj vj0e, by
energetic preparations for another attack, by
sea or land, or both at once, the object may
be only to prevent Gen. Beuregard from
sending away any of the troops which remain
to defend Charleston.
At the same instant Burnside threatens
East Tennessee, and Hookerlargely reinforced
is expected to cross the R~appahannock some
where, Or anywhere from CuIpepper to Port
Royal, to keep some Of our forces employed
in the defense of Richmond. Reinforcements
are sent to Fortress Monroe, and the enemy's
gunboats are harrassing North Carolina.

The aggregate strength of the regiments did
not exceed 2, 1000, or average of 500 to each
regiment. Yet more than one quarter of
that number were put h0rs du combat. The
lowest estimate of the rebel force engaged in
the recent battle is 5000. Taking the four
regiments named above it would bring the
actual loss of the rebels up to some %, 900,
and this, we believe, if the truth could be as
certained, would prove to be the case.
