"A recent writer in the London Review
thinks that Englishmen are, of all rationale
ties, the most unsatisfactory to travel with.
He says, "When an Epglishman is fool, he
is the most uncomfortable of allfools. He has
not the vivaeious national vanity of a Erench-
man, nor does he rise to the colossal and Mag
ara-like grandeur of the arrogance of a typical
Yankee. 1t is not that he is particularly az
gressive in his insolence. He is too Connected
for this. Heis wrapped round in fatfolds and
coils of self-complaeency Nothing that for
eigner can do will bring Britons of this stamp
down from their trumpery pedestal If he is
polite, they insist that he is seryile OF insin-
cere; if he shows any symtom, of self-respect,
tnen he is impudent and forward. He is very
sure to prove himself ON a infinitely lower
moral level than his critic, do what he will.
ms is result that nothing in this world will
alter. The Briton is the flower of civilization,
and he does not mind if everybody knows that
he thinks himself so. Even over men who arc
decently sensible at home, this fatuons bnn,or
comes the moment they are out of the Dover
packet" q-tflfai 5.I4 81 .og lo

The New York Times does not like the
expression, ''Washington of Italy, as applied
to Garibaldi. 1t says: Possibly he may be
aat,--but it would take q great many like him
to be the Washington of ADaerica In unset
fish devotion to the good of his country and to
the measures by which he believes it will be
promoted, we deem him equal to any man of
any country and OF any age; but in sound
practical Judgment, in Willingness to consult
the opinions of others, in the ability to esti-
mate Alright the force Of events and OF public
sentiment, and in the wisdom which enables a
man to. do what he can and not to attempt
what is impossible, Garibald falls infinitely be-
low the great man who secured for US liberty

A CONVENTION CALLED IN LoUIsIANA.-All
uncertainty in regard to the result of the cleo
ton in Louisiana is removed by telegram re-
iceived by Gen. Grant from Gen. Mower, Dis
= trict Commander, saying that Convention is
called by small majority. The expression
"small majority" used 10 this connection, is by
no means to be understood to imply that
those who voted for the Convention are only
'H elightly more numerous than those who voted
against it, for the latter vote was comparative-
ly insignificant But the law of Congress pro-
vides that unless a majority of all who regis.
tered vote either foror against Convention,
none shall be held. This cnnditisA i-s been

PRIZE FIGHT In MAME.-The Portsmouth
Chronicle says that considerable excitement
was occasioned in that city, on Tuesday, by
arrival of large number of pugilists. 1t was
supposed that a prize fight was ON the taps,
and that it would take place on the islands at
the "Shoals," in this State. Among the celeb
rites who convened at Portsmouth were Joe
Coburn, Barney Aaron, Lew Baker, Walter
Brown, and several other well-known sporting
characters. A special dispatch to the Boston
journal of1ast evening says that the fight was
to take place yesterday, and that the parties
militant were Hockey Moore, proprietor of a
public house in New York city, and George
Rookie, of Providence. The match is for $1,000,
and John c. Hcenan is the stakeholder.
Moore left Portsmouth for the "Shoals" yes
terday morning, and expected to meet Hockey
there, the latter having taken the boat from
Boston the previous evening for the purpose of
holding the interview. '4''--'4
A dispatch, received last evening, states that
the fight came off yesterday forenoon, on
Smutty Nose Island, one of the Isles of the
Shoals Moore, won the fight in twenty-four
rounds, lasting an hour and four minutes i
