ve, the French Government, if they choose, may
deny that it involves any unfrcndly demonstra-
ton against the United States.
We do not know yet whether the statement
Of the Phare de Ia Loire will turn out to prove
true. according to which two war steamers arc
now building for the Rebels at Nantes, and two
similar clippers at Bordeaux. If the opinion
that these ships are intended Tor the Confede-
rates should be correct, the French Government
will soon find itself in the same predcament
from which the English Government after so
long hesitation has just extricated itself, and
will be compelled to show lis hand.
In the meanwhile, it is gratifying to know
that the operations Of Gen. Gilmore before
Charleston have made sensation throughout
Europe. The London Times, which, on such
questions is an authority in all European coun-
tries does not withhold its astonishment at the
progress made by the Yankees in the science Of
war. We believe that such warnings will eau
ton even the worst enemy of the United States
against Understanding our strength, and
against rushing headlong into war which
would require from any European power the ut
most strain Of their resources. Moreover, the
opposition of the entire Liberal press of France
TO the Rebel cause is all that We can desire, and
we have the most ndubitable proofs that the In
Auence and the boldness of the Liberal party are
visbly on the increase.
We feel confident that these arguments Will
not fail to have some weight with the Emperor,
whatever his wishes and preferences may be.
New-York daily tribune., 1863-09-24
THE SITUATION.

The latest news from Gen. Rosecrans is, on
the whole, little brighter. Fighting con-
tinued Tuesday and Wednesday, and the result
of il is regarded by the Government as most
favorable must be taken to mean that
Rosecrans 5 hold on Chattanooga is not shaken.
His entire command was concentrated before
midnight on Monday. Re-eniorcements are
reported as arriving from Gen. Grant by way of
Decatur-a statement which we shall be glad TO
see verified, but do not at present credit. 1t Is
more and more evident that the fighting
on Saturday and Sunday was unusually obsti-
nate. and that our forces were finally driven
back by weight of numbers. Bragg claims the
capture of twenty guns, and the silence on our
side goes to confirm his account. Against 1t we
may SO. of the extraordinary losses OF the
Rebels in general officers; no less than SIX hay-
inc been killed and seven wounded, wh'ch are
numbers without precedent in this war. They
admit also loss Of FIVE thousand, and undoubt'
edly suffered q, least twice that.
Still We see no reason for doubling that the
result OF the battles on the whole was a disaster
TO the National arms. The retreat settles that
question. We were beaten, but not badly
beaten. The Rebels have accomplished far less
than they expectcd so much less, indeed, that
their success Will be Of only temporary conse-
auence, if ro-eniorccments reach Rosecrans in
season TO insure his possession OF Chattanooga
We take il for granted that the Government will
hencciorth make everything else bend TO the
necessity Of strengthening his army. II is not
the holding of Chattanooga that will suffice.
Gen. Rosecrans must be enabled TO resume his
offensive campaign at the earliest moment, and
To resume it with such force as shall put be-
yond question for the future his numerical supe-
riorty. That settled, We chccrfully trust the
issue to his Judgment and purpose.
The Army of the Potomac u reported to be
crossing the Rapidan. II will not need 10 60
far in order TO find very respectable fragment
OF Lees army in battle array. BE 1t greater or
less, il is quite time Gen Meade made an effort
to test It's strength, and there are reasons enough
why this should be a favorable moment for an
advance We trust to hear that battle has
been fought by the end of the week a, latest,
and that every available soldier in Virginia and
Washington mas been sent 70 the front to help
win IL

ENGLAND AND FRANCE.

The Rebel rams in the Mcrsey will be
stopped. The English Government, have given
notice to the builders that the ships will not be
allowed to leave the Mersey, and If it can be
proved that their construction is contrary TO the
terms Of the Foreign Enlistment Act, they will
be seized as violating its provisions. The Gov
ernment are also determined, if necessary, to
make an appeal to the House Of Commons for
sustaining il in preventing the further equip.
ment Of Rebel ships in English ports.
Such is the gratifying news we receive by The
China. If the decision Of the Government has
not yet been officially announced, il was at least
regarded as sufficiently certain not 10 call forth
doubt from any English journal. The organs
Of all parties accept it as a fact. aud few, save
the Tories Of the school Of The London Hraid,
are dissatisfied with this change in the English
policy. Papers like The London Times, which
few months ago would have denounced the
step Of the Mini try no less violently than The
London HeraM does now, as a monstrOua piece
Of tyranny and placid acquicsccnsc in the out
ragcous demands OF the Federal Government, "
are now willing to indorse even "a stretch Of
authority" on the part Of the Ministry, if only
this knotty question can be got rid Of.
The significance OF this decision Of the En-
glsh Government needs 10 comment. We ehaye
been eyewitness how from the beginning Of
the Rebellion every apparent success Of The Con-
federates has been followed by the most insolent
abuse of and threats against, the United States
on the part Of the English Government and
Arstocracy, and how only in proportion as the
Conicdcracy began to show the clearest indica-
tions Of q speedy collapse, the Government
awoke TO a consciousness Of It's duties as a
neutral power. No proof has yet been given TO
us that ANYTHING but a selfish fear for the future
prompts the present concession, and that II may
not be rcpudiated the moment the fortunes oi
war should seem to turn again against ~. But
as long as the prospect Of suppressing TIE re
bclon keeps on improving as it has done for
several months, We may expect an increasing
readiness on the part Of England to listen to
our remonstranccs, and 10 guard more efficiently
than ever against dangerous precedcnts."
The attitude which France intends TO assume
with regard to the United States and the Rebels
is still uncertain. The Government, while not
concealing its sympathy with the South, yet
continues to be more cautious than England IN
refraining from open actsof unlricndliness. The
seizure Of the Florida at Brcst was an entirely
private affair, which does not prove any change
Of the Imperial policy in our favor. The ap-
pointment Of M. Monthoon, warm and out
spoken champion Of the independence Of the
Rebel Confedcracy, looks, Of course, like new
pledge Of Imperial sympathy With the Rebels, |

We ask the attention of the authorities at
Washington to the following facts, in the hope
that what is palpable wrong may be rectifed:
More than two years since certain vacancies
in some of our New-York regiments had to be
filed. Recruiting Offices, accordingly, were
opened here for the purpose, and bounty of
one hundred dollars offered to each soldier who
should serve two years or until mustered out Of
the service. The ranks therenp0n were filled.
A short time since the regiments so filled, ss
regards their vacancies, were mustered out OF
service. and along with the original troops, tho
surviving recruits. The latter had served va.
riousy as to time, according to the date OF their
being recruited. Some had been in service
weeks or days longer than others. Some, tor
example, little over 20 months, some little
under "a months. 1t so happened that portion
Of these recruits, company or so were mus
tered ont with their regiment, and received the
bounty of 800 each man. But then II was
discovered that some fifteen hundred OF
them had not served two years aEd
that the law emitting the men to the bounty
meant after service OF two years, or mustered
out at the close Of the war. II is little strange
however. that this view Of the case was not ar
rived ri until distinctions had already been
made in cases of some Of this class of recruits.
Well, what is the effect Of this ? Here are
fifteen hundred troops-yeteran soldiers, of
great advantage to the Government, and per-
fectly well-disposed perhaps as a rule to re-cr'
list if they get the original bounty, but not re-
eeiying it are soured and angry against the Adj
ministration We do not think the Govern.
ment can afford to make such construction OF
the law; for, in the first place, it is not right;
and. in the second, it is not expedient.
