The Times says; "The nomination Of Gene.
raj Mcclellan t Chicago was obtained by
something very closely resembling false pre-
| tences; be was nominated as the advocate OF
peace and reconclllatlon--a character which, as
coon as his nomination was secure, he lost no
time In pointedly dlsowning.n
THE CASE OF THE FLORIDA AND MR. wHBB's
LITTER.
The Times says; "lt is fortunate for the
peace ofthe world that the English nation is not
easily moved by unseemly language, but, con-
tent with resistance 10 actual wrong, permits
words, however offensive, to psss by without
regard.
Interference In the sffalfs Of an agitated conti-
nent will never be weakened by taunts or in.
vectives coming from Americans, however
highly placed. For this reason We may regard
tho answer Of Mr.. Watson Webb, the United
States minister at Rio Janeiro, to the Brazilian
Government, In the affair Of the Florida, as a
matter Of not the sightest political importance,
and as only showing the temper in which Ger.
tain men representing the most powerful sec.
tlon OF America are accustomed to think and
talk OF us. The capture Of the Florida in Bahia
harbor was an outrage for which no ability
gross and palpable that Mr.. Webb could not
but repudiate completely in It."
rHR BLocxADE AND BRITISH orrfcERs.
The London Army and Navy Gassffs says:
In consequence OF the recent capture, by
Federal cruiser, OF q distinguished officer Of
her Mejesty's navy, while in command OF q
block kade.runner, Mr.. Seward addressed repre-.
sentstions through Lord Lyons TO her Majesty's
Government, which have led to q stringent
order on the subject The Admiralty have
caused IL to be notified to the officers engaged
In the exciting and frequently profitable pur-
suit OF commerce by blockade.running, that
they cannot countenance such al employment
Of their vacant hours.
"Although all the officers referred to are on
haH pay, IL was plainly most unbecoming for
them, as long as they drew even half pan 10
engage In acts which subjected them TO palms
and penalties at the hands Of the authorities Of
friendly State, while they were at the same
time treating with contempt the Queens proc
lametion OF neutrality, which, binding on all
good subjects, had especial claims to obsery-
ance from officers in her MsJesty's pay"
cUPoLA SHIPS.
The Army and Nary Gdzstts understands that
the Duke OF Somerset, In compliance with the
expressed wish Of the country, has given his
sanction to Captain Coles 10 construct an en-.
tirely new ship on his cupola principle.

ing proclamation, releasing the people Of the
ceded duchies from their allegiance to the
Danish crown;
1--WE, Christian *, by Gods grace King of
Denmark, &c, announce that by the treaty Of

Another proclamation from the King con-
saiho shio mouh'u PasoaBcs
at became, therefore, our hard fate TO con-
clude peace which annihilated the brightest
hopes with which we received the crown, to
preserve It entire and uninJured as 1t has been
| worn for centuries by the Danish royal house.
It became our sad fate 70 sec the monarchy
divided, and the country which had formed
part of the ancient Danish realm from time
immemorial, and which q thousand years OF
battle had not been able 10 tear from L., sepa-
rated from US.
But the hardest trial OF all 10 us has been
10 know that portions Of the kingdom itself,
and the largest portion Of that population In
schleswig which belongs to Denmark by heart
and by language, have been compelled to ste
themselves severed from the mother country

| INCREASE OF wooLEN MANUFACTURE IN PARIS.
The Paris correspondent OF the London Tines
| says; Woolen manufacturers, taking advan-
tage of the high price Of cotton, have enlarged
their establishments and created new ones.
The recent change In the French tariff has
produced this and many analogous proofs OF
the development Of French manufacturing In
dustry.
