A NEW BRITISH GRIEVANCE.

From the telegraphic summary of
news by the Europa we learu that the
British Government--or The London
Tines, if there is any essential differ.
ence--is blessed with a new griev.
ance against this country. Mr.. Adams,
at the request Of certain merchants in
London, had given q certificate, ad-
dressed to Admiral Dupont, that YES
sci about to sail for Matamoras was
engaged in a legitimate voyage. The
object, Of course. was to avoid all risk
of detention by American cruisers, and
the shippers used the certificate to
modify the rates of insurance. "The
whole proceeding" 7Ae 1smes declares,
Z" is moustrons, whether as a calcula-
tion or blunder." -..-.
That that journal should so consider
that transaction does not surprise us,
for it is difficult to conceive of any.
thing relating to this country, unless
it be in favor Of the Rebels, that I'll.
Times does not consider moustrous
Perhaps we may agree with it in this
particular case when we are more full
ly informed Of all the particulars; but
so far as we can now see, il seems tc
have been very harmless and bust
ness like transaction. The cargo il
question. though shipped on q British
bottom, belonged, according to the re
port, to an American citizen, and az
it was intended to aid tho Mexicans in
defending themselves against the
French invasion, would have been a
tempting prize to either Of the Rebel
pirates, the Alabama or the Virginia
which the British Government has per
miicd 10 be built in and sent to sea
from British ports. No doubt this
American shipper would have. preferred
an American vessel on which to Noaf
his goods, but the unfsiendly acts o
Great Britain had made it too hazard
ous il not an impossible operation
Compelled, therefore, to resort to al
English vessel. his next step was nat
urally if not wisely to resort to the rep
rescntative of his own government il
London for protection from that habit
ity to delay and possible danger which
attends all the vessels under tn,
British Flag on our Southern coast
from the notoriety they have game,
as blockade runners. On the one hant
he would run the hazard Of losins
4 Everything from the Anglo-Rebel crui
sers if he sent his goodssi in an Ameri
can ship, or ifhe used British vessel
there was sfill imminent risk of los
by detention from our blockadinj
squadron, whom events have compel
ed to regard with suspicion eyerythin;
sailing under the British flag. II
sought, therefore, the only safeguar
for American goods to be sent to thei
destination by the only channel tina
the British Government had left ope
to him. 1t was, it seems to us, SO ia
as we are now informed, shrewd d.
vice aud quite worthy Of the proverbi;
Yankee enterprise. That it shoul

The Negro Soldiers.

The dispatches from Grants army
make the gratifying announcement
that Adjutant General Thomas has
already organized ten full regiments
of contrabauds. They are being uni.
formed, armed and drilled, and will
be set to fighting without delay.
Abundance Of white soldiers have vol
unteered to officer these regiments.
1t is said that officers enough can be
found in Grants army to command
two hundred regiments Of fcontrabands.
The prejudice and hostility to the
blacks that was alleged to exist among
our soldiers is found to be all bosh.
The white soldiers are anxious to re.
ceive all the, aid the blacks can render
them in crushing the rebellion. They
take practical, common sense view
of the whole matter. They want the
rebellion put down, the Union saved
and peace restored as soon as possible.
1t has been procrastinated by hall
way measures and Copperhead oppo
sition much too long, and the men are
becoming impatient to have it ended
They want no truce, armistice or hol
low peace, but a bona .tfde ,subjugatior
Of the rebellion, and to this end, any
reinfbrcements are welcome. Black
men can stop rebel bullets as well Of
white men. Neither do they esteem
rebels too good to be shot by niggers
If theyever had any fastidious notions
of that kind in their heads, their grim
experience with q treacherous and
reasonable foe has perfectly ctired
them. The army has entered upon
serious warfare. All romancing il
laid aside. The scabbard is thrown
away, and he is counted friend, be
his complexion Of whatever hue, who
steps into the ranks and shoulders q
loaded musket aud shares the hard
ships of the march and the perils d
the battlefield. #'f '.5 a@ @' Hs.@.#

Girls before you decide to accep! man
as your companion for life, look we'll to
his resentments. See if he hates anybody
soundly If so, you run risk in marry
ing him. A man who can hate well, has
not the qualities to make coed friend
A truly noble soul will never hate bitterly
even though deeply injured He stands
on too high ground He may be deeply
hurt, and much dispised; he may avoid
one he knows to be an enemy, but he does
not harbor bitter hatred in his soul
A noble mind is not always on the look
out for ofenses, but takes good-humoredly
slight annoyances that are plenty enough
in every one's pathway. Do not counten-
ance person who thinks to add to his i'm
portancc by clustering at hotel servants,
railroad employees, OF whenever he feels it
safe to do it. Instead of proving him a
cosmopolitan, as he vainly thinks, his bark
ing and snarling only show his affinity to
the puppy. Do not marry a rowdy if he is
ever SO rich, hoping your influence will re-
form him. See to it that he is well re-
formed before YOU take a step from which
You can never recedo while life lasts.
IL Is du eACStlCuL sign IOI Il young man
if be is kind and attentive to his mother
and sisters such a one will be quite sure
to make a kind husband. There is some
thing kind and genial and worth loving in
young fellow that all the children run to,
if they wish to ask a favor,-ono the little
girls are not afraid to ask to carry them
across the muddy streets, ~ one the boys
look to naturally to help them out Of their
trouble with "that plaguy htc'-ono who
has a few minutes to spare from his work,
to put up swing that shall furnish weeks
Of enjoyment to the little folks. Children
arc sharp observers Of human nature, and
depend upon it young man that all the
children like has something about him
worth liking, whether he wear home-spun
or broad-cloth.

MISTAKEN EcoNoMY.-No o language can
express the cruelty or folly Of that economy
which, to leave fortune to child, starves

There should be no economy in education.

out like water for the child's intellectual and

Our Returning Soldiers.
BY ROBERT BURNS.

When wild wars deadly blast was blawn,

Where lang 4 q been lodger,

A leal light heart was in my breast,
My hand unstained wi plunder,
And for fair Scotia's hame again,
l CHEEKY on did wander.
thought upon the banks o. Coll,
thought upon my Nancy,
Thought upon the witching smile
That caught my youthful fancy.
At length reached the connie glen,
Where early life / spOrted;
lpassed the mill and trysting thorn,
Where Nancy aft l courted:
Who spied but my ain dear maid,
Down by her mothers dwelling;
And turned around 10 hide the food
InuG nom my cen was swelling.
WI altered voice. quoth ], sweet lass
Sweet rs yOn hawthorne's blossom =
o happy, happy may he be, -
That dearest to thy bosom
Ny purse is light I've far to gang
And tain would be thy lodger
I've served my King and country lang,
Take pity on sodger.
Sac wisttully she gazed on me,
And lovelicr was than ever;
Quo she, a sodgerancc lo'ed,
Forget him shall never; ...
Our humble cot and namely fare,
Yc freely shall partake it,
That gallant badge, the dear cockade,
Ye're welcome for the sake OF.
She gazed-she reddened like a rose
Syne pale like ony lily
She sank within my aims and cried,
Art thou my ain dear Willie?
By him who made yon sun and sky
BY whom true loves regarded
am the man and thus may still
True lovers be rewarded.
The wars are DER and I'm como hame,
And find thee still true hcarted
Though poor in gear, we're rich in love,
And dmair we'se e'cT been parted.

And come, my faithful sOdger lad,

For gold the merchant plows the main,
The farmer plOws the manor;
Rut glory is the sodger's prize
The sodger's wealth is honor;

Nor count him as a stranger,
Remember, he's his couutry's stay,

Good fortune is a tickle fair.
From place to place she loves to stray;
Back from your brow she sweeps .ho hair,
Kisses you quick, and springs away.
But Dame Misfortune sad and slow.

How Coal IS BoUGHT AND SOLD IN
LONDON. in the city Of London coal is
sent to the consumers in sacks containing
one hundred pounds each These are load
ed on lerge carts drawn by enormous hor-
ses. with scales and weights to each cart,
and, if desired by the purchaser, the sack
is weighed by the driver. When the hon
esty of the coal merchant and integrity of
the driver are well established, the weigh
ing of the sack is seldom required. In the
purchase of a cart-load of sacks, some
three or four of them, taken promiscuous-
ly, arc tested by the scales, and if found
correct, the weighing of the remainder Of
the load is dispensed with. This mode Of
buying and selling coal is the result of ma
ny years experience in the vast city of
London.

to Join the "Leaguers' when he replied as
follows;
Friend, thou changest thy name too Of
ten. l have known thee as a wing, as a
free soiler, as a native American, as a
know-nothing as loyal Lacquer, and thou
recollectest how many more titles-and ]
cannot trust thee. When brother Obed
fell from grace and become a rogue, he
changed his name, and have found shat
wherever men design making their living
by dishonest means, they are always likely
to do the same. If thou dost ever adopt
one name and set of principles, and hold
on to them for fifty years, as the democrats
have done, may begin to trust thee"
