Greater Importance Is attached to the facts
detailed above, in consequence of their having

The writer in submitting the statement to the
Right Honorable VisoOunt, says
"The neutrality of her Majesty's Government
in the contest between the United States and
the slaveholdcrs' confeduraCyis either q reality
or a mere profession. If the former, II should
be thorough and be honestly carried out. How
far II Is, one or the other, acts must determine.
In the majority of criminal cases, proof OF guilt
depends chiefly upon Circumstanial evidence.
In the absence of the direct testimony, and II
only reasonably conclusive, 1t is held sufficient
to establish culpability. Let tho same law be
applied In the present Casei the verdict will not
be doubtful.
Numbers Of vessels laden with material
and munitions of war constantly leave the chief
ports Of the United Kingdom, notably London,
Liverpool, Bristol, Hull, Glasgow and Belfast.
They clear outwaTds for neutral ports, but
mahy of them are again heard of as having
been captured by Federal cruisers, while at
tempting to run the blockade, or as having
succeeded In doing so. A few cases for the
year 1862 are submitted, all from the port Of
London.
"Surely the shipment to neutral ports OF
such vast quantities Of material aud munitions

NEW YORK, Nov. "a.
The Tribune's Washington dispatch says
the Government has nothing later from Gen.
Burnside than that contained in the Gin
cnnati dispatch. 1t is hoped that Gen. Burn
side will hold out until Gen. Grant, at whose
headquarters unmistakable signs of uneasness
are observable, can relieve him and at the
same lime deal Bragg crushing blow.
The same dispatch states that there are,
however, abundant indications that the army
under Gen. Meade will not devote many more
days to rebuilding railroads and entertaining
English officers with reviews. Our men are
eager for battle and confident in an un-
wonted degree of speedy and decisive victory.
victorious march to the very gates of the
capital seems to be again among the POSSIBLE
ties.
The Herad's Washington dispatch states
that the President desires not to lose the SER
vices of Gen. Burnside, and the latter will
probably have leave of absence to enable him
to attend to his private business and return to
active service.
The Worlds Washington dispatch saws
Although Gen. Meade has made no advance
yet, the cavalry is just now very active, and
stirring news may be anticipated at least from
that branch Of the army
There is no truth whatever in the Cincin-
natl Enquirer's statement that Secretary
Chases resignation is in the hands of the
PRESIDENT, sent in with view of the resgna-
ton of Judge fancy and for the succession to
his place on the Supreme Court Bench.
