Let the opportunity pass without turning II
- better account with the world, So they
determined to send the resolutions by spe-
eial envoy In national vessel, and Mr.. FOX
assistant Secretary of the Navy, was chosen
70 be the envoy. Crowned heads had been
assaiiled, and their Hives narrowly saved De-
fore and our Government bad expressed y ~
sympathy along with its congratulations az
their escape from death but these expires
siorris found their way through our foreign
ministers, and were properly appreciated,
The Republican party were after glorlnca'
ton and parade, and sent their ship and their
envoy on spread-eagle junketing mission.
The opportunity was delightful to all hands.
The Secretary of State gives the envoy (Mr'
Foy> q letter of commentator to all onr
foreign agents and all the naval Officers
abroad, and tells them that Dir. Fox had ma
terially contributed to "the, recent tn
r,mphn. of sour arms" in his branch OF the
service; and GIDEON WELLS, Esq, OF the
navy. gave him instructions and put under
b;s command the Miantonomah, the two
t,lrret monitor, and the Augusta and and. Ashue.
Int two wooden men-of.war. There seemed
TO be mutual admiration among all the ON
GERS, civil and naval, and the book gives US
the general puffs of all, along with the por-
traits-portraits quite as elegant asany OF
those in LoDGE's fine publications. They
were paid for by the Government.
With the purposes and motives we have
described, the expedition was carried OUT IN
d succession of grand sprees. The speeches.
on State occasions, and the speeches, and
toasts, and songs at the festive board are
freely given. Soare the bills Of fare in French
at all the dinners. There was 4 vast deal OF eat
inp and drinking, and volume OF speecnes
containing much hash with a little good
sense. and repeated. protestations OF mutual
admiration and undying fealty between the
nations, which will be fulfilled only so long
as it shall be the interest of the two nations
to be at peace with one another. f."
/ The expedition served the purposes OF
puff and triumph for the Radicals, grained
the appetites of a good many lovers of eating
and drinking, cost a vast deal OF money, ana
there was an end on it. Never was there
more useless and fruitless mission, save TO
Fox and bis companions. They were feted
in St. Petersburgh and other towns. at
Moscow the wine flowed most freely. In the
HEIGHT of the conviviality at the board IA
dinner given by the municipality the follow
ing most comprehensive toast was drunk by
Mr.. hoKoREFF:
Having given utterarce to our Inournful feelings
in commemoration of Lincoln; Propose x. n, nI
two sons and to the prosperity OF all the lnllaD-
fants of Springfield, where was brought up IN our
our fine this great man. the giory Oh A,ns[dca
Quite ardent for Moscow
Perhaps we would not differ as widely
from Mr.. koKoREFg as to the merits Of the
{" late lamented" as would now very many
of those who in IS fairly worshiPped him.
He was the wisest northern statesman at the
time of the war. We believe Judge CHASE
was good man; but LlNCoLN's heart was
as honest as the Judges, and he was more
ardent and mpllsve, and all his impulses
were kind and liberal. He was excellent i'll
bis practical sense, and the klndest among
The kind in his humanity.
So we won't quarrel with Mr.. koRkoREEF,
but, barring little of the hifalutin in bis
oast, would be happy to have Joined him
n full, flowing libation to it.
The book itself is very interesting for its
inc portraits, and, moreover, it is fine. spe-
.imen of the printers art. Further than
hat, we value any one of 4EsoP's fables
bout the Fox far more than we do this
narrative of the mission of Hon. GUsTA-
'Us VAsA Fox" ...
