The RISING ENGLISH SPIRIT-The following
extract from the speech of Prof Newman, at the
great Manchester meeting, reveals the spirit which
is spreading among the masses of the English
people
He heard public men say that we had really
behaved extremely well toward the Northern
States; an eminent person had said that we de-
served the gratitude of President Liacoln for the
very de!icaae consideration we had shown for his
wish that we should not recognize the South
He was told that the North was childlsh-was ex.
pecting great zeal too much OF us-was weak.
If it was CD ldish he must say, But that child is
giant People might say what they pleased,
but the free North was not only fact, but a
great fact; and, moreover, it was going to be a
still greater fact. That country bad purged her.
self OF completely with slavery; it upheld in the
strongest way the rights Of the millions of man.
kind; it had now given not twenty millions of
money, as we gave to free the negroes in our col
onies, but 1t had given 100000 precious lives of
her own citizens. (Cheers.) And why? Because
she would not allow that slave power TO dictate to
her and convert her into a slave system also.
North America had raised herself UNNECESSARILY
IN the estimate OF all right judging men. At the
next general election for parliament, we should
put TO all candidates this question Should the
Question come forward in parliament of an indem-
nifty to America for all the damage which the AL
ALBANIA and the other ships have committed, would
you vote for paying that indemnify (Cheers)
He said we were bound to pay it and, secondly,
ne said that we were bound 20 sue Messrs. Laird,
Lindsay, and all the others concerned-0o
cheers)-to repay that indemnity, although it
were to the sacrifice of the uttermost tarthing of
their fortunes. (Cheers.)"

of the present campaign the confederate debt will
have reached thousand million of dollars. The
greatest confidence exists in the popular mind,
that the country can support debt OF that mag

that if increased much beyond that amount, the
whole will be placed in peril. When il was as
certained that the war would go on for an indef-
mite period tey0nd the present winter, there was
a feeling of distrust, in regard to the soyeney of
the public debt and that feeling was viSibly
demonstrated in the exaggeTaIon OF prices that
Immediately ensued. But the second thosght of
the country is beginning TO correct this dIstrust Of

concluded wisely, thai other msaps Of Carrying on
the war exist besides that of issuing paper cred

touching that great resource of wealthy commu-

The Legislature Of New York has just passed
law, ALLOWING soldiers from that State the priyi-
lege Of voting, by proxy, in the place of their le-
gal residence. The Democrats all voted against
the bill, and probably Gov. Seymour will veto it.
The pretended objection of the Democrats 10 the
bill is, that it is unconstitutional They have a
real objection much stronger than this, however,
and that u.s. tina. the soldiers will not help these
factous opponents of the Administration in their
bitter warfare on the cause of the Union, the Con-
stitution and the enforcement Of the laws by their
voters.

Our National Credit.

In our last weeks issue we gave our readers
short article from The Independent, on the
subject of our National Strength, and we give
them this week from the fame source, the fol-
lowing equally encouraging and truthful view
of one particular branch Of our national re-
sources, viz, our national credit -
Our credit conquerng interested avarice at homo
and dcying interested cOnspracies abroad"-WILLIA NJ
II. SEWARD.
Our worthy Cabinet Minister, in most ell
oquent and patriotic letter to the Loyal Ma
tional League, which held great public meet
ing in this city on Saturday last, uses the
truthful language we have quoted above. No
better or more appropriate text could be found
for use in these columns and we commend it's
thoughtful consideration to every one of our
quarter of million readers.
The Government Of the United States has
more reason TO day to be proud Of its high pc.
sition than any other nation on the face of
the globe. In spite Of rebellion unparalleled
in its strength of numbers and in its power to
achieve what they have undertaken-in spite
of the INTERNAL, chilling, influence of thousands
of Northern traitors and liberty hating Cop
perheads-in spite Of the imbecility, disoyal.
ty, aud plottings Of major.generals--in spite of
extensive, secret, and wicked organizations
among us to assist the rebels-in spite of
bold defiant, and most formidable movement
to depreciate our currency and destroy our
national credit-in spite OF the steady, persis-
tent determination of the moneyed aristocracy
of England to help JEFF Davis to the very
end-in spite Of an expenditure Of at least one
thousand millions of dollars to sustain our
noble Constitution and our benefcent demo-
cratic institutions-in spite of combination
Of obstacles never known in ancient of modern
warfare, our national resources to-day are such
that we may boldly defy the combined ava
rice and conspiracies OF all our enemies,
come they from whence they will, at home or
abroad. We say this plainly and firmly to
the face of John Bull, and to every other
monarch Of every other power on the globe.
