RoEBuCK ON RECOGNITION.

Mr. Rocbuck, in the House Of Commons, wa,
certainly very concise and candid, when he said
that while England sympathiscd with the Con
iederates, she would not riskw by their recog.
milton. In this ease the prudence seems to be
quite upon par with the sympathy, and, i'll
deed we are not sure that they are not, philo-
sophcally considered, one and the same feeling.
The brilliant hopes which Mr.. Roebuck's
speeches and the teachings Of The London Times
inspired in rebel regions, must now be expiring
with the last roses of Summer. All the United
States have ever asked Of England has been an
absolute, complete and honest neutrality; and
both ministers and members are beginning to
see that in maintaining this their interest and
duty are identical.
Dir. Roebuck volunteers the statement that
England is now as she was at the beginning OF
the conflict" II may be comfortable for Linn to
think so, but we must question the accuracy OF
his opinion. There are two points which he
lorgets-the first is the deep indignation which
the course of Englishmen, in fitting out Con-
federate cruisers and blockade runners, has ex-
cited in America, and the secopd Is the ugly
little question Of damages which must hereafter
be settled. Certainly Mr.. Roebuck is quite
right when he declines to further complicate
these questions by recognition

By the circumstances of his nomination, but by
repeated declarations, and still more emphatcal'
" by his votes, in Congress.
SO long ago as January II, 1861, Mr. Pendle'
ton sad in the House of Representatives:
"Sir, the whole scheme of coercion is impracti-

of the Constitution" He was for the Union,
indeed, in theoretical and sentimental way,
but utterly opposed to the only course by which
the Union could be maintained. His views

patriots as Kerigan. Voorhees, and VallaDdig-
ham, but the vast majority, even OF Democrats,
voting for tho bill as essential to carry on the
Government. lmpelled by the same motive OF
hostility to the war, Pendleton voted against
the Internal Revenue Act Of 1864, against the
Tariff Act of 1864, against the bill to tax insur-
rectionary districts, and against the Treasury
Note Act of Feb. 6, 1862.
Consistent in his friendship TO all the open
friends Of Rebellion, Mr.. Pendleton was one Of
the twenty who voted against the resolution
censurng Harris Of Maryland, for reasonable
language on the floor OF the House.
lie was willing to repudiate the debt due from
the Government to portion of its soldiers and
voted, March 81, 1864, for Hardings PROPOSE
ton that the colored troops should be cheated
out Of their wages earned.
June 80, 1864, he voted for LeBlond'S propo-
stion for an armistice and commissioners; the
campaigns in Virginia and Georgia then actively
going forward.
He declared by his vote on the 18th of Janu-
airy, 1864, as he had in bis speech above cited,
that he does not believe in the right to crush
the Rebellion. Mr.. Green Clay Smith, of Ken
lucky, offered this preamble and resolution:
Vhevea., A most desperate wicked and bloody rebellion
exists within the jurisdiction Of the United States and tue
safety and security Of personal and national liberty depend
upon is utter and absolute extinction; therefore,
Resolred That It IL the political, civil, moral and sacred
duty of the people it, fight it, crush IT, and forever
destroy it,
This passed with but sixteen nays; among
them, Harris, Long, .Pendicton, Voorhees,, and
Fernando Wood.
Three resolutions were offered In the House
Dec. II. 1868. The first declared for the prose-
cution of the war. Mr.. Pendleton voted square
" against it'll other Democrats with him.
The second resolution was as follows:
ThAt we hold It to be the duty Of Congress to pass all
necessary bills to supply and and the duty Of the
people TO render every aid in their power to the connted
au,boe, OF the Government In the crushing out OF the he
beion and bringing the leaders thereof to eondsn punish
ment."
This resolution was agreed to, yeas 49, nays
/. Harris of Maryland. Mr. Pendteton dodged
The rote although he had just voted on the pre-
ceding resolution, and appears immediately
afterward voting on the next.
We thus present Mr.. Pendleton to the people
Of the North, as he appears by his own words,
votes, and acts. His friends-or a portion OF
them-may now endeavor to give him a char
acter for devotion to the Union, but neither he
nor they car escape this proof of his consistent
opposition to all practicable means of maintain
ing and defending the Union and Constitution
alike. He is not for putting down the Rebellion.

THE CAPTAIN OF THE GEORGIA

| Another of the Anglo-rebel priyateers which
have inflicted so great damage upon American
commerce, has at.length met with deserved
fate. On the 18th of August the U. 5. wal
frgate Niagara oyerhoulcd the Georgia some
twenty miles away from the Portuguese port OF
Lisbon, captured her, and sent her under prize
crew to Ncw-York.
The main points in the history Of this priya-
teer are familiar TO our readers. She was origi.
nally called the Japan, having been built at
Greenock as a privateer, and after receiving her
guns and warlke stores off Cherbourg her name
was changed to the Georgia, under which name
she captured and burned number of American
vessels. Some time ago she was sold in Liver
pool. it is said, to Mr.. Bates, merchant Of that
town, and the Portuguese Government are re-
ported to have chartered her for the conveyance
of mails and passengers to the Azores or the
West Indies. She was on her voyage from Liy-
erpoo to Lisbon when she was oyerhauled by
the Niagara. Her captain protested against her
seizure, but his protest was disregarded. He
and his crew were transferred to the Niagara,
who landed a part of them at Doyer, while
another part preferred volunteering under the
Federal flag
The English press, including even many of
the papers which have been unrelenting in their
hatred toward the United States, discuss the
subject in aremarkably calm spirit They admit
that this seizure receives some countenance from
tho judgment of Lord Howell in the case of the
Minerva. This vessel, during the last war be-
tween England and France, had been ship-of.
war, belonging TO the Dutch India Company,
and was chased into Bergen by British frigate.
After lying there for some time she was pur-
chased by Count Bentnck, with whom England
was on good terms. The Count demanded that
the vessel should be given up to him, but
Lord Howell pronounced against the claim,
saying that sales of merchant vessels in
neutral ports from which they could not
escape had been sustained " after much discus
sion and hesitation;" but in the ease of a vessel
of this description, built and employed for war,
he would not ,llow the enemy so far to rescue
himself from the disadvantages into which be
had fallen, as TO have the value Of his ship re-
stored to him By 'he neutral purchaser"
Some Of the English papers are hunting after
minor differences between the two cases. but
their similarity, in general, is so striking, that
there is general readiness among the organs
of English opinion TO abide by the decision Of
the prize court at New-York.
