paper cannot live in a healthy condition, i: at
all without fair advertising patronage; and
Knowing that fact. we shall offer no apoory
tor the scarcity OF reading matter in this issue,
as the paper is filled with new advertisements.
amongst which will be found some very inter
esting orders from government, in which great
many of our friends are especially interested at
this time. We have been forced to leave out
several obituaries, and other advertisements.
which will appear next week. However, our

The Sicge-Atiack ON tho encmy's


The small hours Of Tuesday morning were
marked by avery gallant and encouraging,
though only partially successful, attack on the
senemy's fleet. Of the character of details of
the attacking expedition we deem it best for
the present to be silent. and we are requested
by the military authorities to extend to the
Southern newspapers elsewhere the request to
omit all mention Of any definite intelligence
that may reach them in reference to the affair
We can only inform our readers that the Yam
kce iron-clads frigate Ironsides is believed to
have been injnried, though she still rode at her
usual anchorage yesterday afternoon. Our on
ly loss in the attack was two missing-inclu-
ding Lieut. Glassell, of the G.. S. steamer CHI
cora.
The operations pf the hostile .orccs on the
islands progress silently, comparatively few
shells being now exchanged. The Yankee
working parties seem to have grown accustom-
ed to Our shelling. for they certainly pay very
little attention to our frc.-Mcrcury of Wed
mesday.

Our European Relations.


The latest advices from Europe announces
that Mr.. MASON has notified Earl Russell of
his purpose to withdraw from England. Thus
ends the second chapter in the history of our
efforts to obtain recognition of our indie oen-
dence on the part of the British government
The commission appointed by the Provisional
Congress, consisting of Mcssrs. YANcY, Rosr
and MANN, constituting the first Every one
in our Confederscy will commend this tardy
vndicstion of our dignity on the part of Mr.
MAso.. For more than two long years the
claims of this country have been persistcntly
brought to the notice of England, and its at
tention called, at the same time, to the innu-
merabls breaches of international law, and
violations Of the articles of the treaty of Paris
perpetNked by the Yankee, to the injury of
British commerce. Those claims have been
not only disregarded, but treated with il-con-
cealsd diEespect. Those illegal acts have been
submitted to, with tamencss. Now, at length,
our Commissioner knocks the dust of England
from off his feeL and our earnest hope is that
no Official from our government may again
press her soil until England has first sent an
ambassador to Richmond, hearing the long
delayed and Coming as it will under the cir
cumstances) ungraccful announcement of re-
cognition by her.
1t is usual, in our ideas and feelings towards
Great Britain, to discriminate between the
British government and the British people,
and. whilst the hostility Of the former is admit
ted, we fattcr ourselves that we have the az
dent sympathy of the latter. 1t NAV be So,
but we doubt it. When we consider the pop
ular character of the British constitution. that
the ministry must act in accordance with the
views of majority of the House of Commons.
and that the members of that House are elect
ed by the people, how is it that that ministry
is SO antagonistic to the current of British pop-
ular sentiment? How is it that the advocates
OF the Confederacy, in the House of Commons,
have, upon every occasion, made so small a
show when its affairs were cup? True, Mr..
LAIRD builds rams and BLAKELY casts gums for
us. But for these services we pay a sound fig-
ure, and if there is, over and above this, bal
ance due from us for sympathy, it's liquidation
would not cost much, even if paid to them in
Confederate Treasury Notes. Again we say.
we are glad Mr.. MASON has left England. and
las doubtless the Confederacy is as indepen-
dant of her as she is of the Confederacy) let
us abstain from any similar attempts to opep
up official intercourse, until in good time Emo
land sees fit first to ask it,
