Lord Russell on the American Contest.


Lord Russell concluded a recent
speech in Parliament on American af-
fairs, with the following remarks:
Having explained what was the course
we took, let me again say that l think
we are bound to maintain cur neutral
ty in the contest between the two par
ties on the continent of North America
Great issues are there under trial, and
no issue greater than the question Of
what will become Of those four millions
of the negro race, which have hitherto
been retained as slaves in the United
States. For my part, l never have been
able to feel much sympathy with either
of the contending republics OF the
United and Confederate States. saw
that on the one side there was @ decls-
ration in favor of the perpetuity of
slavery, and on the other there seemed
to be no measures taken even 10 undo
that unholy compact contained IN the
Constitution of the United States, by
which a slave coming into a free State,
however much he may have suffered in
endeavoring to reach that free State, il
liable to be again restored to his master.
1t is to be hoped, with respect to this
contest in North America, with what
ever calamities it may be fraught, what
ever slaughter may be committed, and
whstever industries may be interrupted,
that Providence will decree that some
etonement for al the misery shall be
made to mankind, and that the issue
be one which will place those four mil
lions of the black race in condition
of freedOm-in that condition which
may hereafter lead 70 their prosperity
by the proper employment of that lib
erty which the United States have pro
claimed as the most sacred principle Of
their Constitution It il evident that
it must be left TO the contending powers
to work out this great problem, and l.
for my part, should think it q great
misfortune if this country should be
obliged by any paramount considera- /
ton 20 take part in the present con-
test 1t may be that the result Of this
contest, the beginning Of which we all
deplored, the continuance of which We
all regret-it may be that the end Of
this contest may see that sin, that crime,
that detestable state of slavery forever
abolished from among civilized nations

NEw YoRK, May 22.-The Times special
eays there has been 10 Sighting since the
rebel attack on our communications with
Fredericksburg on Thursday.
There is every reason to believe that the
movements on Friday and Saturday viii
speedily be productive Of important results.
A rebel lieutenant says Lees army, before
the battles, numbered from eighty TO ninety
thousand, and that he has lost from twenty
five to twenty ght thousand. he also says
the rebel army hss plenty Of provisions.
A correspondent says that less than ten
thousand new troops repulsed three divis-
ions Of Ewell's corps at 3 o'clock Friday
morning. Birney, Crawford and Vessels
divisions advanced with such rapid and IN
expected movements that the rebel picket
line was captured almost to 8 man, and our
troops swept until over three miles had
been gained and hundreds Of prisoners to-
ken.
Prisoners say Lee came with them across
the W River and addressed brigade, tell
ng them that they were to undertake
movement which, if successful, would be
fatal to the Yankees. He told them they
were close to our Richmond stores and i'm
mense baggage, and determined assault
would give them everything We possessed
Gold and cotton not quoted.
BALTIMORE, May 2S.-A Fortress Monroe
letter Of the 2lst says the cavalry attacked
Fort Powhattan, on James River, making
three charges which were repulsed with
heavy loss. But slight loss to our side.
sAS FRASorsco, May I9.-Acapulco ad-
vices Of the 18th say the French occupied
but a narrow line from Sen Bias 10 Vera
Cruz and Tampico.
It is surmised that the French Admiral
does not venture to occupy any other Pacific
post, because he would not be able to keep
up his communications with the interior.

An accident occurred TO q train on
the Nashville and Decatur railroad,
Sunday afternoon, at the Duck river
bridge, near Columbia, which threaten
ed at one time to be serious As the
train, which was on its way to Nashville;
neared the bridge, q horse standing on
the track became alarmed but instead
Of getting to one side, ran upon the
bridge As the bridge had not been
prepared for passengers Of this charac-
ter, he fell and hung in the timbers.
The locomotive and tender passed over
him, but the first car struck him, and
knocked him into the river. The col
lision threw the car off the track, but
she coupling held, and the locomotive
going ahead dragged that car and others
that suecessively got of the track,
swiftly over on the wood work Of the
bridge. Afte- going a short distance
on the opposite side Of the river, the
coupling Of the forward car broke and
il and six other cars ran down the en-
bankment The remaining cars did
not get of the track, but were left
standing upon IT, The train was a long
one. Fortunately no one was killed;
four negroes were wounded one, q
child, having both its feet cut of.
