PATRIOTIC QU1BBhiNa.-Iu noticing
the recent death of Admiral Winslow, of
the United States Navy, Philadel-
phia contemporary speaks of Captain
Semmes, whom Winslow encountered
In the Alabama and sunk her, as free
-booter. Such declaration at this day
can only be the result of narrow aud
illiberal prejudice, for it is hardly to be
presumed that any Intelligent man
does not know the true status of the
Alabama, which was commissioned
ship OF war Of the Confederate States
oonfederated for defence and war against
other States OF the Union, and which
contest was even acknowledged by the
highest court of the Union an war
waged by powerful de fdcto Govern
ment, BIS it il go acknowledged also by
all the world. A privateer is private
armed ship belonging to individuals,
and fitted out for purposes of gain
whereas the Alabama was built and
commissioned by the Confederate Co.
vernment as ship Of war. It is also
stated by the New York Epeuing Post
that the battle of tho Alabama and
Kearsnge was the only sea fight of the
war. This is another mistake. The
Alabama had ,a-fght with the United
States steamer Hatteras. on the 11th Of
January, 1853, in which the latter was
destroyed. Admiral Winslow WAS q GA.
pable and deserving officer. one of the
old school, than whom there were no
more efficient and courageous seamen in
any service.

The Liberal RBpUBLlCAHs.-At the
Liberal Republican Convention. held in
Elmira. New York, on Wednesday last,
long series of resolutions was passed,
commendiug and embodying the doc.
trines of the Cincinnati platform, do
nouncing the back salary grab, calling
for increased lines of com munication be-
tween the produce Of the West nnd the
merchandise of the East, and charging
upon the course Of the National Admi-
nistration the result Of financial discrc-
dit and distress, and the widespread
suffering and ruin of the laboring
classes. They advocate further return
to specie basis, and demand rigid eco
nomy and good faith in every depart
mont OF public expenditure. The doc
trines embodied in these resolutions
seem good and unexceptionable, hut
are oumbrously expressed. They lack
terseness and point. Nothing is said
amongst them OF the great national
wrongs and abuses OF the deliberate and
protraoted persecution of the Statos of
the South. This is nm evil which ought
to havo found denunciation in 80 yo.
luminous bill of complaints.
