LONDONDERRY ALL RIGHT. We mention
ed last week that Mrs. Davenport had been
rudely repulsed, &c., at place in London
derry, while engaged in her work for the
Sanitary Commission. We are informed
that it was an assistant or one who accom-
panied Mrs. Davenport who received the re-
pulse, and we are also very glad to state
that the person who thus opposed this work
Of humanity, and who expressed a wish and
hope "that every Federal officer and private
would be killed" Sc, was not person who
belongs or lives in Londonderry, but "a
stranger there on visit to friends, and it is
hoped at least that there is no inhabitant Of
the whole town who believes in or woul d
make such an inhuman remark as the one
above quoted. And this reuark was made
to a Union soldier widow-,he widow Of an
officer Of a Vermont regiment who died at
Fredericksburg, from wounds received n the
battle Of Spoltyslvania, = and who reached
her husband few hours before his death,
and on the occasion above referred TO was
testifying to the good work If the Sanitary
Commission Of the fayors her husband bad
received from them before his death, aud Of
which she herself had been q recipient in
making her perilous journey between Wash
ington and i Fredericksburg Ia conclusion
let all loyal people everywhere, of whatever
| political faith, unite their efforts and add
one more degree of earnestness, if possible
to further the glorious ork Of humanity, by
aiding the cause of the Sanitary Commission

The War In Denmark.

New York, Feb. 24.-The steamer
City of London, with one day later adyi-
ces, arrived here this afternoon.
The intelligence from Denmark is as
follows:
The Austrian headquarters on the 10Th
we're at Troemp and the Prusian at Flens-
burg.
The Germans had decided to raze the
Dannerwerp.
1t was rumored that the Prussians
were attacking the Danes at Duppot, and
had lost 800 men. The result was un-
known. The Danes, in great numbers,
had reached Alsen.
The Duke Frederick had been proclaim
cd at Fleusburg.
1t is rumored that Denmark has pro-
posed a European Congress. The rll-
mored armistic in Schleswig is unfoun-
ded, but no more fighting is reported
The London Times says that the Danes
lost everything in Schleswig except hon
or.
The Morning Post says of the situation
that an informal suspension of hostilities
has taken place, and the time has arrived
for the basis of an arrangement to be
discussed
The Morning Herald contends that as
Austria and Prussia repudiate the treaty
of London, General war can hardly be
escaped

The Pirates to be Delivered to the
United States Government.

ST. JOHN, N. b., February 24.-The
Police Magistrate delivered his Judgment
to-day in the Chesapeak piracy case, Or
dering the prisoners to be committed to
Jail for surrender to the United States
authorities. He said the evidence for the
prosecution discloses that the prisoners
and other parties captured the steamer
Chesapeake. 1t was the work of towards
and Williams. The master of vessel
must have unfettered authority and obe-
dience from his crew and passengers.
The,evidence on the part of the defence
discloses the fact that there is terrible
civil war raging in the United States,
and the only authority given for the sci
zure of the Chesapeak is that given by
John Parker, and he had no power to
give commissions to others. There was
no authority given in the letter-of-marque
to Parker to transfer his power to anoth-
er. He (thc magistrate) could find no
justification for the seizure of the Ches-
apcake. 1t was amino fwandi non iure
Tell. 1t was piracy, robbery and mur-
der. 1t was punishable by the United
States courts and case within the extra
dition treaty. Applications will be made
for writ o hdJeas corpus SO as to bring
the case before the Supreme Court
WAsHINGToN, Feb. 24.-Thc State De-
partment has advised that the Court at
St. John, New Brunswick, has delivered
an opinion in the Chesapeak Piracy case,
sustaining all the points made by the
prosecution, aud committing the prisoners
to Jail to await a requisition from the
United States authorities.

The War Cloud.

BY the late news from Europe we learn
that the war cloud which has been hang
ing over our country for nearly three
years has extended its shadow to the
Eastern hemisphere. War, like most
other diseases which periodically attack
the family of nations, must run its course,
and therefore it is hardly to be be ex-
pected that the brand lighted by the
great rebellion in America could burn so
fiercely without igniting the slumbering
brands in other parts of the world. The
spark has caught in Europe, and the toe
sin of war now sounding in the Schleswig
imbroglio bids fair to awaken the echoes
of battle throughaut the continent. To
group the European war and the growing
prospect of its further advance in single
paragraph, it would seem that the differ
cnt nations, great and small, are about
entering on new series of the old Napo-
leonic idea of universal war.
While we deplore the necessity for war
at all, yet in our own sad experience We
do not owe much sympathy to England
and France, the great powers at present
behind the curtain. They have not dealt
honestly by us, as good national neigh
bors should do, and they may yet reap
their reward in troubles with their own
happy families. The war phase in Europe
now presents the following picture to the
world:-The Danes and Germans in ac-
tual conflict; the Polish rising still afoot;
Garibaldi's call upon the Italians, which
will doubtless turn up to some account in
the general war fever; the Hungarian
declaration will no doubt bring forth fruit
in due season; the English troubles with
the New Zealand natives, and their neV-
er-ending troubles in the Celestial Empire
not forgetting Japan; then we have France
and Spain, who, finding at present no
particular outlet at home for their militia
ry spirit, must come over the water to in
dulge the charm of their old renown in the
passage of arms. France has taken hold
of Mexico, and Spain is engaged in the
West India Islands.
1t would appear from the above group
ing that the European Powers are pretty
well engaged for the present, with fair
prospect Of much work in the future. This
will do for the Old World, and now we
come to the New. We have here the
great American Rebellion, which absorbs
all the interest on this side of the Atlant-
ic; but it has nearly run its course. and
the kindling of the fire in Europe will
draw the intensity of the flame away from
us, and the war cloud will settle over
Europe. At least, if they smoother its
burning embers there; they will have
enough to do to prevent fresh outbreak
to let us alone, and that is all we ask.

The Rebel Pirate "TuScalOOs0.

A despatch from Boston says that the
Rebel pirate Tuscaloosa has been seized
in the harbor at Cape Town by the Brit
ish authorities, for violation of the neu-
trality laws in landing portion of her
captured cargo on that coast. This is de-
cidedly good news for the neutrality
question, and if true, it proves that the
British Government has vigilant officers
at Cape Town, or that the Home Govern
meht has turned over new leaf and is
now going to carry out the golden rule,
as good in diplomacy and in the law of
nations as it is in morals, to do unto 9TH
ers as ye would wish that they should do
INTO you. While the Tuscatod;a appears
to be in quod, the accounts about the
Alaboma seem to be at sea. The latest
report places her thirty miles south of
Land Head, ner Calcutta, while previous
intelligence had her at Annoy, in China,
with the Wyoming keeping watch and
guard over her. But wherever she may
be it is certain her course is now nearly
run, when the English Government show
the right telling, as they have in the case
of the Tuscaloosa, to give full effect to
the neutrality laws which should govern
the nations of the earth in spirit and
truth. .-Phiiadclphia Inquirer.
