Its General contented himself with sending a lying bulletin to his employers, and issuing a lying proclamation to his troops, but has not ventured to make the advance he so valorously threatens. Richmond is not yet taken, Jackson is chasing Fremont down the Valley, and Beauregard is holding Halleck at bay. Well may the French Emperor think it is time for him to interfere, if he hopes to save his own people from calamities like these which have fallen on the people of Lancashire. Seward might deceive Lord John Russell, who is in his dotage, and was anxious to be deceived. But if he ever imposed for a moment upon Napoleon it must have been form moment only. His eyes must have been long since opened to the true state of the case, if by nothing else, at least by the alter failure of the capture of New Orleans to open the cotton market, and by the general clarifies of the whole crop throughout the South. So far from being finished in thirty days, or thirty weel is either, t
braham Lincoln, we could find none more different from him than Wm. H. Seward. He resembles Lincoln neither in person, manners, culture, or abounding as they do in similar examples, a more signal proof than Seward affords of the utter inadequacy of mere intellectual cultivation toe process of veneering, as to make a gentleman out of such a man as Seward by any amount of external polish. He has literally and truly no red. There has never been a moment since Lincoln's election when Seward was not the real President of the United States.

The Herald says he goes to persuade his Government not to recognise the independence of the Confederacy, inasmuch as Seward and Lincoln will crush out the rebellion in a few days. This shows, at any rate, what Lincoln and Seward wish the Yankee people to think. We doubt, however, whether he has gone on any such mission, although it is pretty certain that he is no frSeward wish the Yankee people to think. We doubt, however, whether he has gone on any such mission, although it is pretty certain that he is no friend to us. If he has, however, we think he will meet with an adversary in the Lancashire famine abundantly able to neutralise all the arguments he may use. Another rumor is, that he demanded his passports before he left Washington. This we doubt, for the simple reason that there is no cause of quarrel between the Yankee and English Governments, so far as we know. It is probable he goes for reasons of a nature altogether private.

No more ninety days business. The insurrection which Seward believed to be waning at the close of the last year, now covers half a continent with desolation and havoc, and we are warned that battles known to be imminent will exceed in severity any hitherto fought." The Times laments the condition of New Oty million legal tender notes, and a bill for that object has been reported from the Commit of Ways and Means. A grand Union demonstration was announced to take place in Norfolk on the 20th. Governor Pierpont was expected to be present. Seward has gone to New York, to be absent several days. Reverdy Johnston is going to New Orleans as commissioner to the State Department. Additional from Europe. The Africa, with Liverpool dates to the 31st ult., has arrived at Halifax.
