that AN Influential deputatlon from tue so

ties i'll America waited on The ffeinier The
previous day, for the purpose Oh arsing her
Majtsty's Government 10 lake steps 10 bFibg
about peace between the beliIgerentr.
Among the deputation were tuc MaIqu 6
OF Clanricarde, the Bishop oi Chichester,
Lord Alfred Churchill, Nj +, Admiral AuSob,
etc.
The deputaiion having been introduced,
the kev r W Tremlett submitted 10 The
Premier that yeIy large number oi letters
which the Society had received, eic., lhdi~
Gated that d strong and increasing feeling
exists in the country tnat her Majesty s
Government should, if possible, avail itaeii
OF its friendly relations with the Federal
authorities to bring about cessation OF
hcstilities in America that looking upon
the restoration of the Union as impossible,
and the independence OF the Southern Con
federacy rs virtually 'ns Jad dof0Hifl!, any
proiopgation Of the war could cniy result
in mutual slaughter, etc,
Lord Palmerstcn, in reply, said that two
facts were abundantiy clear, VIZ: that the
war vas cruelty destructive To the Amefi-
cans themselves, aud the Inconvenience
caused by it WAS excessive. The question
remained whether the Government had any
rational ground for supposing that the Fed
eral Government would listen TO any pro-
posals Of mediation at the presen moment.
There was an old couplet-

lI.aughterl He was not afraid OF bloody
nose; but he feared that premature Efforts
would ohly have the effect OF exlsperating
the North, and making 1t more difficult
when the passions were little calmed, to
effect the object all must have IN view. The
Government was led to think, from all ac-
| counts that reached them, that this was not
| the moment at which any mediatofy propo
sails could be usefuily made.
Each party was equally conhdent OF ulli-
mate sue ess, and the North especially teai
ous of interference. Il, however, at any IN
ture time reasonable ground could be shown
| for supposing that friendly suggestions
would be listened to, her MaJesty's Govern
ment would be happy to use their efforts to
arrive at such desirable result as that ol
terminating this unhappy war.

courtesy, the deputation withdrew

THE WAR NEWS.

There was nothing Of interest yester
day on the lines around Richmond. =
The enemy was strengthening his posi-
ton on this side of the river. There
were several rumors ahoai Of an attack
by our troops, in which eight guns were
captured. This was one statement, and
another was, that on Thursday charge
was made on the enemy'a breastworks
and battery of four pieees captured,
only one of which were brought off.
None of these reports were confirmed.
We have some further particulars of
, Gen. Early's victory in the Valley The
fight took place between bartonsvllle
and kernstown, about h9a miles this
side of Winchester. Gen, Early jeff
: StrasbtTg at sunrise and marched iS
miles striking the enemy about O'Clock
, on Sunday. They numbered about II,
' 600 infantry and 5000 cavalry The
! enemy was routed with very little re
sistance, and fled preci.stately- Gen.
Mullgan, who was mort4 wounded,
! was, brought to kerns1own, where he
: died on Monday morning. In his diary
! the last entry made on that day was,
"Well, our cause is gloomy; we will
conquer the South about the time the
! Jews all return to Jerusalem" Some of
| the entries were very severe on Gen.
! Hunter, whom he characterizes as a
fiend. Gen. Lilly, of our army, who
was captured by the enemy in Ram
seur's disaster, was recapturcd. HIS
arm had been amputated by the Yankee
! surgeons.
We captured about three hundred
: prisoners in. the fight, or rather IN the
run, and squads of twenty and thirty
were surrendering to the cavalry all the
way to Bunker Hill, to which point the
pursuit was kept up. Our infantry pur-
! sued them as far as Jordan's White Sui
phur Springs, five miles beyond VIM
chester, that making twenty eight miles
they had marched since aybreak. Only
| two divisions of Confederates s-GOrdon
and Breckinridge's - were engaged
! When the Yankees were first attacked
| they retreated about half a mile IN tole
rable order, and attempted to make
| stand, but were again charged, and thi'
time they broke and ran like sheep, ne
efforts OF their officers sutfcing to stay
the stampede OF the frightened wretches
and everything that could impede then
flight being thrown away. The roads
and fields were literally $trewed viii
abandoned guns, articles of clothing
cartridge boxes, &c. The following i

GOV. Brown.

Governor Brown, OF Georgia, is pugna-
c'oua-he is eager for fray with some
body. lie is dangerous man to en-
counter at the present time, and it is
quite conSoling to know that one so iratc
and full Of battle, has most convenient
opportunity ior gratifying lis temper. -
1t iS enough, indeed, TO put everybody in
Georgia out OF temper, that the Yam
heeS should 20 far advance into the bow
els OF that state. But We taf.nOt see
how the condition OF anybody in Geor-
sia can be improved by picking a quarrel
with President Davis The Governor
seems 10 have thrown oil his coat, placed
4 chip on his head, and, rushing into the
arena, dared the President. to ~knack it
oil We have no idea that the President
will crafty him. Meantime, if he will
direct all his anger and his blows at
Sherman, he will help to free his noble
State from the hated presence of ,he
Yankees.
If the telegraph is right, (and from
the Southwest it very often is not, Gov
ernor Brown appears to have issued a
proclamation touching eXempts under
the Confederate laws in his State, merely
to raise an issue with the Confederate
| Government. 1t is n very needless and
| Supercr0gatory act on the part OF
the Govelnor--a decidedly oyerstraineJ
movement, and argues. carping and
fault finding disposition. Ii Governor
Brown finds any man, or men, owing
service 10 his country in the field, who is
improperly out OF it, he will do the Con
icicracy, as we'll as his own State, much
GOOD by sending them to the field ; and
no doubt entitle himself to the thanks
| of the President and Congress. but he
need not even stop to investigate this
question When the enemy is thunder
i ieg at The door, eceyy maas is liable tG
| military duty. IL the Governor had lived
| in Richmond any six months within thu
last three years, he would have seen this
principle enforced Everybody is herr
undel arms IN the hour OF danger not
! even excepting the Government EN-
| plOyees al every Department. Some o
| these last have met the enemy, as have
also the eXempts and non conscupt'
| among the citizens = they have stood II
his way to the city, and brayely repulse'
| him from the suburbs.
This is all done, too, without an.
,lashin. ol authority between the PreSl
dent aud the Governor OF Virginia.
Indeed it il done in the most periec
harmony between them. And We AZ
----- .l.-.4 :..-....-..sa.r ana. iha I.AUaInuE q
t,rorgla confer greater satisfaction upoI
the Government OF upon the people q
the whole South, than by bringing a
many men a possible to the defence q
tlanta, and to cooperate with the bray
Confederate army now standing betweet
the enemy and that place. 1t is mos
encouraging to sse him eXerting himSel
lor this purpose but much to be re
| grctted that he should essay to pick
| quarrel with the Confederate Govern
ment in SO doing. He is a man OF ell
ergy but.a man of prejudice. Let MS
however, praise his energy and hope 10
| the best from it
