The telszraphic accounts of yesterday morn

We have Northern csrfnnstioa Of ths report

There Is more IN this thsn : mere invasion Of

Mobile was suddenly abandoned, and the force
intended for is diverted 70 the Rio GTaude- Is

termination Of the Lincoln Cabinet to make
practical assertion Of the Monroe doctrine, and

first step toward a stand against the Mexican

Our opportunity" is at band, and we trust our
representatives in Europe viii improve it with

I Mr. SIideIl need not knock hard at the door Of
