The House OF Commons on tie Rebel
Steam Rams.

The measures adopted BY the English
Government for arrestine the Rebel
rams in the Mersey, have now been so
often and so thOrc ughly discussed bv
prominent men of ali political parties in
+ gland, that it has become exceed
ingly difficult for English speakers TO
say anything new on the subject. The
hostility of the Tories against the
United States, in particular, has ex-
hausted itself In the debates which
took place in the House of Commons
on the 23d of February, on a motion of
Mr.. Seymour Fitzgerald for the papers
relative to the seizure Of the Rebel rams
there Is hardly single new thought to
be found The dispute turned chiefly
upon the question whether or not the
English Government had yielded to the
menacing language of the American
/ Governments The change in the con
duct of the English Cabinet from the
time when Mr. Adams received an i'm
struction TO point to warlike conse-
/ quences which might follow a continued
violation of British neutrality. was too
obvious to be denied Butwhether the
change in the tone of the British Gov
eminent was accidentally simultaneous.
or was influenced by the attitude which
the Government of Washington was
known toassume, remains to be decided
Practically, the determination %
which the English Government at pres
ent adheres is of great Importance to Us
with regard to its future policy The
Attorney General stated very emphati-
cally that what took place in the case
OF the Alabama must not be repeated.
and that these ships should not leave
the Mersey and join those of belhge-
rent power until the inquiries which
were in progress had been so far brought
to a conclusion as to enable the GOV
eminent to Judge whether the ships
were intended for innocent purposes or
not
The Government, we believe, is at
present determined to use its Influence
to prevent the sailing from English port e.
Of any more vessels intended for the
Rebel service; and the House Of Com
mons, by its vote on Mr. Fitzgeralds
motion, declare@ its adhesion to the
Ministerial policy The motion was re-
.iected, and the Ministry sustained by
I7S votes against 153, majority Of p.
which undoubtedly will be increased
whenever the Government may choose
to make the vote a Cabinet question
Every new debate in the English Par
lament on American affairs strength
ems our belief that during the admins
tration of the present Ministry no mem
complications are likely tO-arise, pro
vided always that we meet with no sud
den and important reverses in the field.
The reiterated rumors Of a Joint recog-
milton Of the Southern Confederacy are.
at least as far as England is concerned.
too absurd to need any special contra
dictiOn-N T. Tribune.

aueen YIetorla,s AhdIcati0n.

The Memorial Diplomariqas makes itself
responsible for the extraordinary state
ment that at a recent Cabinet Council
on the Danish question, Queen Victoria
rose from the table declaring that she
could come to no decision without con
sulting with Prince Albert, retired into
her closet, and on emerging, announced
that the Prince was hostile to any act
of war by England.
This unmistakable proof Of mental
alteration is said to have determined
Lord Palmerston to urge the abdication
of the Queen; and the fact that, instead
of joining his mother at Osborne, the
Prince Of Wales has gone with his
princess to St Leonards, is interpreted
as an in dicatiOn that Edward VII is
preparing to mount the throne and to
inaugurate new foreign policy in the
affairs of Great Britain.
1t is certain that the present attitude
Of the English Government cannot long
be maintained if England is to keep
her place as a power OF the first rank
and if the abdication Of Victoria is a
necessary preliminary to vigorous and
honorable action on the part OF Great
Britain, that abdication Is likely to be
insisted upon and accomplished with no
delay.

The Fenian brotherhood in dublin.

On the 22d ult there was q crowded
meeting in Dublin Of Irishmen. who
were called to assemble and protest
against "the recent vote Of the CorpO-
ration Of Dublin, by which College
Green has been assigned away to King
William Ill and Prince Albert and the
statue of Henry Grattan excluded there
from for ever
There was a jolly row, and not Tam
many Hall in its widest moments has
been the scene Of greater confusion.
The Fenians burst on the stage. pos
sessed the house, and tIiumphed over
all their enemies.
The London Times thus sums. up the
affair.
The Fenian Brotherhood have gained
their first victory ON the sacred soil of
Ireland From all the Northern States
OF America the eyes Of the expectaut
Irish may now be turned to the spot
where, amid the din Of conflict and the
shouts Of victory, the green nag has OF
last been uniurled The long-promised
invasion has come off The wrath Of
millions, so long nursed and so success
fully kept hot, has at last blazed forth.
These Irish who, whether in Ire
land, or England or America, must
always have somebody to hate and
something to charge with all that goes
wrong with them may at last welcome
the arrival of the day when they may
appear as invaders and conqucrOrs in
the old cities Of the Celt. Further. IL
must now be announced, with horror
and dismay, that after a terrible and
enduring conflict, the Fenian Brother
hood have made themselves masters OF
one Of the principal public buildings
Of the City OF Dublin.
Whether the invaders came direct
from America we cannot tell, for. al
though il was remarked that the Fed
eral American uniform was worn among
them, that may possibly be accounted
Tor by engagements entered into on
this side the Atlantic However that
may be, whether the uniform was the
mark Of a prudent desertion and an
igDominious fight or Of honorable dis
charge combined with an equally hon
orable poverty, OF whether the smart
coat was but bravery bought with a
bounty to be earned hereafter, there it
was. That long-expected American
uniform appeared in Dublin, and II
there were any powder IN the IRISH
magazine now was the time Ter it to
explode.

TIE SPIRITS AND RED TAPE-H Mack,
the Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial writing Of the
Davenport boys and their great rope
feat, says:
A few evenings since an individual
succeeded in battling the disembodied
fraternity. He tied a man hands with
red tape, and the spirits endeavored in
vain to set him free. They could man
age hawsers, cables, tow-liEes and bed
cords, but when il came to Washington
red tape, they had to give il up in des-
pair Is it any wonder that the public
IN general complain against the Gordan
knots OF red tape, when the spirits
themselves could do nothing with
themP

To the Free C0Eored TahabitaHts Of LONisiana.
Through mistaken policy you have
heretofore been deprived Of partici
patton in the glorious struggle for ma
tiopal rights in which our country is en-
gagged This no longer shall exist.
As sons of freedom you are now
called upon to defend our most estima-
Gle blessing. As Americans your coun-
try looks with confidence to her adop-
ted children for a valorous support as a
faithful return for the advantages en-
ioyed under her mild and equitable
Government AS fathers, husbands and
brothers, you are summoned to rally
around the standard of the eagle to de
fend all that is dear in existence.
Your country, although calling for
your exertions, does not wish you 10 en-
gage in her cause without remunerating
you for the services rendered. Your
intelligent minds are not to be led away
by false representations; your love OF
honor would cause you to despise the
man who should attempt to deceive you.
In the sincerity of soldier and the
language of truth l address you
To every no5le-hearted freeman OF
color volunteering to serve during the
present contest with Great Britain, and
no longer, there will be paid the same
bounty in money and lands now receiv-
ed by white soldiers Of the United
States. The non-commissioned officers
and pFivates will also be entitled to the
same monthly pay and daily rations
and clothes furnished to any American
soldier
On enrolling yourselves in companies,

your white fell0U-citzenS. Your non
commissioned officers will be appointed
from among yourselves.

Mobile, 1 called upon you to take up
arms, inviting you to partake of the
perils and the glory of your white
fellow-citizens, expected much from
you, for | was not ignorant that you

an invading enemy. knew with what
fortitude you could endure hunger and
thirst, and all the fatigues of a cam
paign / knew well how you loved
your native country, and that you had,
as well as ourselves, to defend what
man holds most dear, his parents, rela-
tons, wife, children, and property.
"You have done more than l expect
ed. In addition to the previous quail
ties l before knew you to possess, /
found, moreover, among you a noble
enthusiasm which leads to the perfor-
nance of great things.
Soldiers the President Of the
United States shall hear how praise
worthy was your conduct in the hour OF

American people W II, / doubt not, give
YOU the praise your exploits entitle you
