from me ItIits'
BY the AustralasiaR we have the text OF Mr.
Adams reply to an address Of the British Eman-
cipaton Society, eongratulhtiug President Lin
ccln on his reelection. Such an address offered
to a mere partisan politician, would most Ger
tainly have evoked a torrent Of Iurgid rhetoric in
which things visible and invisible would have
been coniounded, with perfect disregard Of con-
sequences. To Mr.. Adams the address of the
British Emancipation Society came simply In the
form of logical statement OF facts patent 70 the
minister and TO everybody else.
Mr.. Adams Oi mt spread himself; aud ye4 his
reply TO the British Emancipation Society, We
venture TO sly, will be found q more telling
rebuke of British "neutraliEy" than the essence
of volumes which have been written on the same
subject by less discreet and skilful pens. He
Saws that be receives the address with satsfac-
tion; that il will be received in the United STATES

siderable portion of the British people in the pro-
gress of events here and that It will do good If

the sentence Of deposition pronounced upon him
by the Bishop of Cape Town on the 10th Of De-
cember last but he also denies the validity of that
sentence and the jurisdiction upon which it pur-
ports to be founded On this ground he prays
the Queen, through the Judicial Committee,
to declare that the letters patent under
which he holds his own episcopal oflce
constitute an indefeasible title until they shall
be Tecsl ed for some lega cause of forfeiture aud
that tue letters patent by the virtue of which the
Bishop of Cape Town claims TO lave acted we're
upduly obtained from Her Majesty, and cannot,
for other reasons, GleCt his own rights. should
the opinion of the Court b. adverse to him on this
point, he further prays that his petition should
be heard by way OF appeal from the sentence OF
which he complains, and thereby he raises
another issue on the question juri dictiOn, for Il
will be remembered that the Bishop Of Cape
Town recognized no appeal from his own court,
except 70 the Archbishop OF Canterbury, and, in
cOnccding that, affected TO waive "any real or
supposed rights Of this Church" The Judicial
Committee, therefore, have first 10 decide whether
or not all the proceedings q. Cape Town, in
December last, were nall aud void; aud,
secondly, whether or not the Royal Supremacy,
in is most important functions extends 10 the
colonies. Unless and until the hrst OF these
questions shall be determined in the negative, and
the second In the affirmative, they cannot pro-
ceed 10 entertain the merits Of the cause.

The Effect.

The Findlay CO., Courier thus speaks
OF the withdrawal of men from that Han
cock( county into the war. 1t says:
The EFFECT OF THE DRAFT.-The last
draft, that of the National Guards, is more
seriously felt by the agricultural portion
OF the community than any heretofore -
In some townships full one-half of the
working population have been taken out,
and this at time when their presence
aud labor is most needed. The crops on
which their families depended for mainte-
nance during the coming year, ought now
to be put in; but the i'm plements of labor
must now stand idle, and the families left
to suffer. We know many large families
of women and children left without any
means of support whatever, and who must
live off the charity of their neighbours
And all this is for whatl To satisfy an
overweening desire on the part of Cover
nor Brough to show his authority by ten.
derlng aid that was not asked for. While
the West Governors, whose States supply
provisions for large portion of the East,
are SO eager to depopulats their States, we
see no such eagerness on the part of the
Governors of the Eastern States. The
producers are to be taken away from their
labor, while the consumers are left at
home. .H
This is true Abolition policy-"labor
must ever be subservient to capital.' 1t
will, by and by, be found out by fools aud
tyrants, that men who are engaged in rails.
ing food are more usefully employed for
the country's service than they are when
conscrlpted as food for gunpowder. Bread
and meat are rather more useful to tho
people than guns and bayonets. ~

From The Ne,0 Fork Mercury { Rep. J
Political Quackery.

The present incumbents of political Of
fee, observing the manifest distaste with
which the people regard their immature
efforts to carry opinion by a sudden coup
detat, doubtlessly look forward to the
Baltimore Convention which is to be held
in July, as means of procuring specious
endorsement of their determinations
The public, however, will not be blinded
or deceived by this bluudering charlatanry.
heBaltimore Convention is to besimply
fine specimen of what is politically known
as ga packed affair" and its acts will carry
with them the smallest possible amount of
Influence It's endorsements, so far from
being &c cathec3ra aud entitled to weight,
will be properly understood as represent.
ing the opinions OF few men in the en-
ploy of intriguing office-holders.
The entire history of the recently de.
veloped scheme is Que Of bold attempt
to forestal and dragon the calm and un-
biased Judgment of the country to effect
by a violent and sudden Eruption what
could never be procured by legitimate
methods Enthusiastic endorsements"
by legislative bodies, and spontaneous
nominations by those who are to be lavish
ly remunerated for their preferences, are
only old intrigues presented in a new
dress; and those who view them in any
other light are certainly entitled to no pc.
culiar reputation for perceptive power
When the proper delegates indicate can
didate in the usual and legitimate manner,
it will be time enough for these admiring
legislators to talk about spontaneous in
dorsements and nominations by univer-
sal acclaim. Until then, their action is,
to say the least, as updignifed as it is
manifestly corrupt. The packed conven-
ton will gain but little credit for itself,
and reflect still less upon the country.
Had the acquisitive school of politicians
possessed the usual acupen of their spe-
cies, they would have cloaked their cor
rupt designs with less transparent textures
than those with which they now affect. to
hide their animus. Their mistake, how
ever, is fortunate circumstance, and, as
in chess, so in their political game, the
players own stupidity has invited final
checkmate.

DEPoPULATIoN OF IRELAND.-Tris
papers still speak of the large departures
OF. emigrants for America, no less than L.
500 taking passage in the steamers Kan
CARGO, City of Baltimore and Kedar, all
leaving Liverpool in single. week for
their transportation. The Western Star
says:
1.-THE results of the emigration drain
will soon be sensibly felt in nearly every
locality throughout the south and west !;
por is the exodus confined to those parts of
the country alone. We learn that large
number Of emigrants have left Ulster for
America, as well as Australia. If we stop
to consider the rate at which people are
leaving this country at present, we must
come to the conclusion that the land will
soon revert into pasturage, and that in a
short time Ireland will have to depend
