A CLAIM FOR REBEL DEpREDArIoNs AT SEA

Ane Messn UPTON, Of Boston, owners of the ship
Nora which was recently destroyed by the Alabama have
sent memorial to Mr. Seward protesting against the de-
structon of their property The chief point. in their
memorial are the following:
The Nora, legally registered American shin. was char
tered at Liverpool by Mr.. w. NJ De Maltos to carry
cargo from that port to Calcutta While on the voyage
she was boarded and taken possession of by vessel call
ing herself the Confederate States man-ofwar Alabama
by whose captain part Of the stores were removed and
the ship set on fire. The protest against this de-
sruction of their SHIP and demand reparaon from the
British Government iu the of $50 O0O They base
their claim on the fact that the Alabama is an English
vessel having sailed under the British flag and never hay
ing entered Confederate port that the British Govern
men has never nterfered with her unlawful acts and on
the additional fact that at the time of the capture Of the
Nora she was principally manned by British subjects.
In view Of these matters and of others which may be-
made to appear the memoriaIists have entered their
solemn protest against the British Government and peo
pe as willing parties neggenty culpable the destruc
ton OF their property upon the high seas and thus in rst
violating the proclamation of the Queen by building and
manning said steamer and then allowing hor to continue
her depredations
And they ask through the Government of the United
States that proper may be made of their
oss that in the end due reparon may be made to them
by the said Government of Great Britain or that the Co.
vernment of the United States may the same as
of the governmental obligations protect the rights
of their citizens thus wantonly violated.
This believe the first protest of the kind which has
yet been issued by American sufferers by the Confederate
privateers

Our Progress I'm Railroad Buildfng.-.
Twenty Miles in Six Years.

We have been tinkering, these six years,
at railroad matters. We have had, as a
basis to work on, the most liberal and
extensive land grants ever bestowed on
any State. We have built twenty miles
of railroad. Of these twenty miles, ten
are in regular operation. That is a very
small mouse to come from the huge noun
tain of our land grants.
We havnt built more miles of road be-
cause we havnt had the capital to build
with. We havn't had the capital to build
with, because we have so encountered our
charters with conditions that sane and safe
capitalists would not risk their money in
our enterprises. Every year we have put
Legitimate restrictions upon railroad COM
panies; and every year has closed with
results proving our folly. But, learning
nothing, either from warning or experience,
we have every year repeated the same ex.
pertinent, and achieved the same failure.
And, the indications are, that we shall
commence the current year with a renewal
of the same old experiment, and be re-
warded at its close with the same old
failure.
But, the fact does little credit to ou1
sagacity; for the more persistently the
system is followed, the less railroads We
shall have.

IMPENDING HOsTILIrIEs WITH GREAT BRITAIN
ORIGIN OF THE DISPUTE, ETC.
There have been some serious misunder-
standings between the government of Bra
iii and the representative of her Britannia
Majesty to that empire, touching certain
claims presented by the latter and rejected
by the former. 1t was at one time feared
that those complications would terminate
in open hostilities between the British
naval forces in Brazilian waters and the
armed forces of his Imperial Majesty. The
following official declaration of Mr.. W. D.
CHRISTIE, her Majesty's Minister Plenipo-
Tertiary to Brazil, which was affixed to
the doors of the Consulate on the 1st
of January, gives clear idea of the
origin of the difficulty. The document,
which appeared in a late number of the
formal de COnanaerciO, was dated the 3Oth
of December, 1862:
The reclamation which, by order of her Bril-
tanic Majesty's Government, l made upon the
Government of Brazil for compensation for the
sacking of the English bark Prince of Wales
wrecked in the province of Rio Grande de Sui
in June, 1861, having been totally and perem-
tOrally rejected; and satisfaction having been
refused for ill-treatment of three officers of her
Majestys ship Forte last June by the guards of
Tjuca and the police authorities of Rio de Jan
GIRO; and it being impossible to obtain either
one thing or the other, except by the compul-
sorry use of superior force, Admiral Warren is
instructed to proceed Immediately, according
to the instructions of her Majestys Govern
ment, to make reprisals on Brazilian propriety.
The property captured shall be retained as a
guarantee until the government OF her Majesty
obtains satisfaction.
These reprisals, it must be well understood
and recognized. shall be made in the manner
prescribed by nations to obtain justice which is
refused, and shall not constitute an act OF war.
In notifying the imperial government of this
fact we beg them to remember that the respon-
sibility will be theirs, it, through violent resist
ance. force. or insults to British Subjects or to
their property in Brazil, Interior and deplorable
contingencies should arise
Admiral Warren will use his best efforts to
proceed in such a manner as to avoid all hostile
conflicts.
Imake this communication to you for the
information of British subjects, &C., &c:
To Mr.. HoLLoCoMBE, H. B. NJ. Consul, Rio
de Janeiro.
This order created great excitement
but some explanations of the Minister of
the Interior, with directions to the people
to keep cool and leave the matter in the
hands of the government, which knew well
how to protect the interests and defend
the honor of the nation, tended to appease
the anxious feelings of the populace, and
temporary order reigned again.
The JO1nOl do Commerce. expresses the
hope that the whole matter will be settled
without the arbitration of the sword.
