EsaLIsH OPINION or Anrn,o,y No,,ro,

EsaLIsH OPINION OF AMERICAN MoNrroRs.
-Mr. John Boume, an English engineer,
IN letter which he has caused to be pub.
lished concerning American monitors, saws:
The impregnable character of the monitors,
from the lowness Of their sides and the i'm.
mense thickness Of their armor, has long
been widely known; but in Europe doubts
OF their seaworthiness, based on superficial
consideration, have been persistently pro-
pagated in the idea, perhaps, that the pub
lie faith in'the excellence OF the European
type of war vessels would TINS be maintain
cd, These illusions, however, the voyage of
the Monddnoch round Cape Horn, and the
intended voyage Of tho Mantonomah across
the Atlantic, will no doubt do something to
dispel, and mechanioians at least will not
be slow to recognize the superior power and
ohcacy OF the monitor vessel which, in ac-
ton. not one Of our iron clads would be able
to confront for FIVE minutes without the
most Imminent risk Of being sent to the
bottom, The officers and crews of the moui
tors are entitled to the highest praise for
skill and courage with which they have
conducted vessels of go noble a character
over stormy seas ipto the hottest FIRE, and
We may oil be sure that the naval men of
this country will not be slow 10 appreciate
these qualities, and to give their brother
blue jackets cordial welcome when they
arrive.

least most of those which impede the
growth of crops in this section, are
also superficial feeders. Three inch
esperhaps under the surface is about,
the average depth of the growth of
both corn and grass roots. But cot
ton which has all tap root mostly and
little lateral root runs down ten to
fifteen inches straight iuto the soil.
Hence it will be readily seen that,
corn and the grasses both feed from
the same region of the soil. The
more grass, then, the less corn. Any
one who has at all observed growing
crops Of corn will have observed that
when once grass has got the mastery,
however vigorously it may afterwards
be fought, and however effectually
overcome, the effect of it's mastery
any time during the growth of corn
will be felt down to the time of the
harvest.
On the other hand, cotton can be al
lowed "to go to grass" with much less
impunity than corn, for the reason
above given.

The official Call.

Elsewhere we publish the official
call for the National Union Conven-
tion. AS might have been expected,
even this call is not free from objec.
tions. II will be observed that no
delegate will take his seat who "does
''not legally accept the national situa-
Sand cordially endorse the principles
above set FORTH" Among those prin-
ciples the war is donominated ere
beliion," and the word "loyal" is
used. Those intense Union men ought
to have left out tho first at loast.
We still think it is better for us of
the eleven States to leave it to the
twenty-six to fix up their political
tricks. If we are to be represented
there we should like to have it under
stood at the outset that we never
would, never ceuld and never shall
stultify ourselves by officially stamp
ing as a rebellion what we consider as
civil war. JEFFERSON DAVIS is con.
hned to-day on that same account.
we shall nexer consent to countenance
q justification Of the injustice towards
him. T"
P.S. Since writing the above we
have received the Augusta Coastitu-
ffoaatist, which agrees with us exactly
ia our news Of the call for q National
Convention.

The Liberals in Mexico have re.
leased the twenty-eight Confederates
captured near the Southern colony of
Cordova. AS the arrest in the first
place was unauthorized and unne cessa-
ry one, it is not at ak surprising that
the release of tho prisoners should
have SO promptly iJlf6ved,
Aud yet if the Libsrals had not
wished to release tLem, to what gov
ernment would they have looked for
relief It's curious question, and
one that might have become of inter-
est. Citizens Of NO country, 1t would
go but poorly with twenty-eight Con-
federates with government that used

still unpardoned. We therefore leave
