Cowarllce Of. Negro Troops.

1t viii be seen by letter from Rhode
Island officer, which appeared In our coll
umns yesterday, that the late reverse in
Florida was owing chiefly to the cowar-
dice of the negro troops, who fled and thus
created panic. Referring to this item Of
news, the New York World says:
We do not know how true this report is,
but we are very certain that before the war
Is over the negro will not be found as brave,
enduring, or efficient as the white. If he
should prove SO, then is all history a fiction.
The extraordinary efforts of General Gil
more to suppress all the facts connected
with this last battle may have beento shield
these colored pets of the Administration.

JOSEPH MOORE, auctioneer at Johnstown,
Maine, on his recent return from nine
months service in the army, ascertained
that his wife, a gay and dashing young
woman, had had improper intimacy with
Jordan Marbourg, wealthy merchant OF
the town. Moore watched his opportunity
few mornings since, and as Marbourg
passed by in the street, he caught him by
the collar, exclaiming, sect down on your
knees-I am going to kill you! My wife
made clean breast of 1t last night" and
Immediately drew revolver and fired, the
first shot taking effect near the heart. He
fired three other shots in quick succession
when Marbourg fell forward and immedi-
ately expired. Moore delivered himself UP
to the authorities.

TALLAHAssEE, Fla, Feb. 81.
To the President:
i have just received the following dis
patch from General Finnegan, dated yes
terday:
II met the enemy in full force to-day, un-
der General Seymour, and defeated him with
great loss. captured five pieces Of artil-
lery, hold possession of the battlefield, and
the killed and wounded of the enemy. My
cavalry are in pursuit. Idon't know pre-
cisely the number OF prisoners, as they are
being brought in constantly. My whole loss
will not, think, exceed two hundred and
fifty killed and wounded. Among them /
mourn the loss of many brave officers and
men,"
understand that Gen. Finnegan also cap
tured many small arms.
[Signedl JOHN MILTON,
On this news the Richmond Sentinel edi-
torially comments thus.
1t will be remembered that the enemy
landed at Jacksonville, near the mouth Of
the st. Johns river, and from that point
advanced westwardly along the line Of
railroad leading toward Tallahassee. He
met with no resistance until he reached
Lake City, (aid down on the maps as Alli-
| gator.) Here he was handsomely checked
and repulsed, some days ago, by Gen. Finne-
gan. Gathering up his strength for new
effort, the enemy came again; and on Satur-
day last he received an overthrow that will
probably stand for one! All honor to Gen
Finnegan and his heroesi We hope the
pursuing cavalry have picked up great
many of the fugitives. The rebs, we doubt
not, will take to the salt water again. The
1 victory Of Lake City has saved the State.
| So Iar our prestige of successis unbroker
in the minor operations of the latter months
We have been successful on the Rapidan
and on the Potomac, and near Newbern
and in Southwest Virginia and East Ten
nessee and Florida. Nor are these inferio
advantages to be despised. To use tn,
classical language of distinguished Presi
dent, s1et us keep pegging away" Whei
we cannot win grand battle, let us pre-
| vail in q small one. rf}n

The Dani.l war Question.

Recent debates in the British Parliament
have disclosed two points heretofore hang
ing in doubt in European politics: First
that England does not intend to interfere
actively In the quarrel between Germany
and Denmark; and secondly, that Prussia
and Austria ''profess" in some degree to
recognize the treaty of 1852, and do not
ayowedly contemplate the dismemberment
of the Danish monarchy. But little conf
dence seems to be reposed in these profess
ions of the two leading German powers.
mo one in Europe" says the Journal des
Debates of the 18th ult., "believes that these
powers Austria and Prussial have occupied
Schleswig only as martial guarantee
against its being incorporated with Den
mark under the Constitution of November.
No one entertains the smallest doubt that
the treaty Of 1852 has been inferred in the
same sepulcher where so many of its pre-
decessors lie defunct and buried"
Such is said to be the general conviction,
at least in France. The French people lay
tuC DldillC VAA Ell iStdhus Eu Jouf ehSJ
say to her, .'might have assisted the Danes
with few troops, and blockaded the Ger
man ports (such as they are) with your
feet without any necessity Of the war be-
coming thereby further generalized. But
If zoe had marched an army to the Rhine
for the same purpose, every one is sure Of
what would have been the inevitable con-
sequences Of such STEP"
Late accounts state that the Danes had
scarcely soldier left in the disputed terri
tory. No help coming from England or
elsewhere; no confidence placed in the
professions of Austria and Prussia with re-
gard to the ultimate objects Of the invasion,
the Danes had been compelled to fly to the
island Of Alsen, and were supposed to be
there fortifying themselves. Their only
chance seemed to be to harass the occupiers
Of Schleswig from that position, blockade
the German ports with their fleet, and thus
wait indefinitely the chances that may turr
up in their favor.
