its part in this war? Was it for love? Why, the hostility of Yankeedom to Great Britain has been proverbial ever since the war of 1812, when its friendship was pald is a fair type of the race. The Yankee loves treason, and he took up for Great Britain in the war indicated because it was treason to do so. But ever since that d very existence of the Government depends upon the negotiation of a loan in Great Britain, the Herald, the Tribune, the Times--all the New York press — daily insult and vilify the British nation Yankeedom could not expect Great Britain to assist her for love. In the meantime, the necessities of Great Britain demand free accGreat Britain demand free access to the ports of the Southern States, to take and carry away the cotton crop, and Mr. Lincoln has taught that necessity has no law. How, then, could the Yankees n that which they see nigh at band? How could they flatter themselves that Great Britain--having the power, and, as it now appears, the will into the bargain — woul
who belonged to the army of the old Union, and who have enjoyed this right, (a vested one as we considered,) when invited to resign our positions in that Government, and enter the Provisional Confederate Government--with the assurance that we should stand in the Confederate Government as we had stood in the old — hardly supposed that we should be shorn of a right which, although it brought us no money, yet secured that which the officer in every department of the army prizes higher than money — to wit, honorable position — that for which he is willing to risk his life.

in his hands. But what shall be done with Mr. Russell? We perceived that the troops of Gen. Banks, some of whom had read his letters in the London Times, have already manifested strong dissatisfaction at his presence among them. We cannot wonder at this; and, when the additional facts which we have now brought out become generally known, if Mr. Russell escapes rough handling it can only be by speedily leaving the country. He is a snob of the first water, and belongs to that class in Great Britain whose sentiments to wards us Blackwood recently expressed as follows: "We can feel no special interest in the maintenance of a Union whose origin was in the violent overthrow of British supremacy." We have already invoked the unusual aid of martial law to stop the vilification of our Government at this critical moment, when it wavers between life and death, by a depraved and treacherous press at home.
