AN EDIToR's TRIALs.-As an illustra-
ton of the trials of editors, Irenaus, of
the New York Observer, says:
Sand the letters coming to the editor
asking him for assistance are SO many that
he might reasonably employ an agent on
a salary to do the work. We made men
ton some time since ola new corn that has
been introduced into this country. One
Of our distant subscribers wrote request
ing us to buy an ear of the corn for him,
and from week to week to shell few ker-
nels Of it into his observer, until the whole
is sent In this way he would save the
expense of postage or express. Imagine,
my dear friend, the happy editor selecting
one mans paper out of a vast mail list,
and cheating the government by putting a
weekly grist Of corn into it A subscri-
Der who saw the advertisement ola young
lady wishing situation as a teacher,
wrote TO say he was clergyman in want
of wife, and requested us to send TO him
by mail the likeness of the lady, and if he
was pleased with her looks be would open
correspondence with view to matrimo-
ny. We sent his own letter back to HIM

FROM EURoPE.-Bv the arrival of the
steamship City of Baltimore,at New York
and the Jura at Portland, we have adviees
from Europe FIVE days later--to the 10th
inst, The news is unimportant.--
A small gunboat, supposed to be intend
ed for the rebels, had been seized at Liv
erpool by the authorities, and the case was
to be fully investigated. Another priva-
teer, however, had succeeded IN escaping
from Greenock, though an effort was made
to detain her. She was built oseusibly
for the emperor Of China" and was
named the Japan, but her name was after
wards changed to the Virginia.
A meeting has been held in the Free
Trade Hall in Manchester under he aus.
pices of the Union and Emancipation So
ciety, to protest against the building of
war vessels for the rebels in England
The correspondence between the owners of
the Peterhof and Earl Russell is published
in the English papers. The closing letter
from the Foreign Minister ends with the
expression of the opinion that the seizure
was unjustifable. The rebel loan was
heavy.
The instruction in Poland is said to be
spreading in all quarters. Cotton has de
clined lad and lid for American aud

SOMETHING ABOUT BLoCKADING.-A
correspondent of the Philadelphia Enqu.r-
err, on board one of the block aiding yes
sells off Charleston, writes thus OF the diff
fculties of the blockading service;
Keeping blockade may seem to the
unnltiated very easy task, but when |
saw the rebel batteries lining the shore,
mounting rifed guns, which threw four
miles and half, thereby causing our yes
sells to lay ont from the shore for that dis
lance, could well imagine how fast
English steamer, running sixteen miles an
hour, plloted by renegade American, as
sisted by signal lights on the rebel shore,
could come up in the dark, and watching
her chances, run in under the protection of
the rebel guhs, and then pass up to vii
mington. These blockaders always time
themselves SO that they can reach block
AIDED port about three o'clock in the morn
ing. Our vessels can, Of course, show no
lights, as that would indicate their waere-
abouts to the runners while, on the other
hand, the signal fires on the rebel shore
plainly show to the runners not only their
proper course and the location of friendly
batteries, but also the position of the
blockading feet. 1t is wonder to me,
considering the extent ofcoast to be guard
ed and the facilities offered to blockade
runners, that our vessels have ever sue
coed in making capture. Besides, at
night, when not moonlight, you cannot see
beyond half a mile on the water"

COUNTER REBELLION IN Mississippi.
A refugee from Choctaw county, Miss,
reports that the people of that county have
declared their county out of the rebel con-
federacy. The impressment of subsis-
teace for the rebel army is going on rig
oronsly The orders are, to allow each
family only sixty days rations. This has
enraged the people, and they denounce
the rebel government as a miserable fail
ure. The PEOPLE were hiding their meat
and corn TO save it. The Consumption is
mercilessly enforced, and there is a reign
of terror everywhere. There is probably
some truth in these reports, but they must
be received with good eeal of allow
ance.

The Springfield Republican

FSzse~o :
The British Government is beginning to
realize that it made blunder in letting
the Alabama 60 to the Confederates, and
is making a show of commendable zeal in
OBTAINING other vessels just constructed for
the same destination. We are glad to see
thi. change for the better, but at the same
time are not so green as to attribute it to
any good intention towards onr government
or any less willingness to serve the south
ern confedpracy. 1t is simply because
England found she had put her foot in it,
and was in danger proximatelv of a war
with the United States, and ultimately of
establishing a precedent which might be
used with telling effect against her i'll the
future. We shall accept and rejoice over
this act of tardy justice, but at the same
time shall not forget the spirit in which it
is accorded.
