er for a New York Tribune, of December 17. Recruits in France for the United States. The Chicago Tribune has the following: Paris letters state that is well known that a large number of recruits are levying in Frane for the United States. The old Garibaldian officers and volunteers are all being organized for anion in this city. A valiant warrior, clothed in the blue and brass of the United States service, entered and seated himself at one of the tables. A Southerner in ry of $51,000 on the 30th of November, including $606,000 received from the United States on account of the war expenses. After reciting the facts relative to tblished in the Southwest, to the effect that people in that region of the Confederate States are waiting to see what "Lincoln's policy with respect to slavery" is going preparations to return in success it is what saying that that the United States is about to be embroiled with foreign powers, and that it is not desirable

Slidell to Great Britain--to that British Boy which each and every one of them — the noisy Bennett at their head — had sworn should be humbled. We should think that this disgusting game of brag was by this time played out, and that even the audacity of Bennett, who has predicated the occupation of Richmond in periods varying from thirty to sixty days, at least fifty times since the beginning of the war, and who threatened that it Great Britain made any fuss about Macon and Slidell, the United States would overrun and annex Canada in six weeks, would scarcely be capable of attempting any further impositions upon popular credulity. But the hardened old reprobate has been long ago dead to all sense of shame. No one knows better than himself that Richmond will not be in possession of the Yankees in six weeks, six months, six years, or six centuries. The Yankees once had possession of it and of the whole South, from the inauspicious moment when the South permitted itself to enter

Mason and Slidell to the British Government. For six weeks, sir, they were held in close custody as traitors, of the United States, by order of the Secretary of State, and with the approval and applause of the press, of the public men of the Navy Department, of this House, and of the people of the United States, with a full knowledge of the manner and all the circumstances of their capture, and yet in six days after the imperious and peremptory demand of Great Britain they were abjectly surree will rise up to do them honor, and yet you surrendered them, did you, to escape the recognition by England of the Confederate States, and your Secretary of State, with Christian resignation or stoic philosophy, calmly rejoices that the effectual chou will be at war with Great Britain, or else, in the meantime will have basely submitted to the recognition of the Confederate States, and the breaking up of the blockade; and, if at war then, with hearts unstrung and hands unnerved by this very sur

: Of providing by law for the trial of criminal cases by juries of a vicinage other than that in which the offence is charged to have been committed, when a trial in such vicinage cannot be conveniently heard by reason of the presence of the public enemy, or the prevalence among the people therein of sentiments unfriendly to the enforcement of public justice.

from the time of his departure until evening I know not; but certain it is, that I awoke from a deep sleep as the sun was about to disappear for the night, and, looking upon the events of the day as some remarkable dream, I was about to return to camp without further thought, when my attention was attracted by a folded manuscript lying by the side of my now empty bottle. On my return to camp I opened the manuscript, and found it to read as follows: Company Organization of the Confederate States Army. Organized in a few short months, the army of the South, is a source of pride to ourselves and of wonder to foreign nations. Since March last, 400,000 men have taken the field in defence of their homes. They have met the enemy at many points, and have signally defeated him in nearly every engagement.--The campaign is now nearly over, and it is hardly likely that any important results will arise from the movements of the contending armies before spring. In the meantime,

p-keepers have inaugurated a small speculation by raising the prices of cotton goods. Six penny calicoes are a "levy;" spools of cotton five cents each, three cent pieces of tape, six and eight cents, and so on. The citizens of Brooklyn are greatly alarmed at the appearance of small-pox in the most crowded portion of the city. Last year there were 500 deaths in New York from this disease, and 306 the year before. The morality in Brooklyn was in about the same proportion. The United States Commissioner this afternoon, on the application of the British Consul, issued a warrant for the arrest of John Dean, charged with the murder of Dan'l Roach, at Kingston, Jamaica. Dean was a sailor on board the Powhatan and killed deceased in a drunken frolic. There would seem to be two parties springing up for and against the Stevens Steam (Robeson)-Battery,--the one landing it to the skies, and urging the Government to advance the necessary funds to complete it as soon as possible

ncial statement of Mr. Chace, the Secretary of the Treasury. In other respects it is still but an uncertain sound. The populace of New York was yet hugging the fond delusion that the seizure of the Trent would be passed over without resentment. The organs which assume to represent the policy of Mr. Seward and the opinion of the inhabitants of New York were still keeping up their spirits by big words still boasting that England had too many interests at stake to risk a quarrel with the United States, and comforting themselves with the braggart notion that "Canada is within two days railway journey of half a million of armed men, and has a frontier that can offer no resistance to an invading force." The news had only just reached them that England had heard of the exploit of Commodore Wilkes. It will be remembered that at the first moment it was received with some astonishment, but with great calmness. The primary impulse here was, not to bluster, but to inquire. The people o

ring hordes by who my our so is invaded, and our rights and liberties menaced. The Northern army is, in point of fact, a foreign army, led by Yankee officers, and they are desecrating a country which was the first and army section of the old United States to protect them from that political ostracism of all foreigners which had its origin in the North. We have no comments to make in the base ingratitude thus displayed to the South by the men who owe her the preservation of the rights they now enjoy as citizens of the United States. But suppose it even true, that the conquest of the South is necessary to the liberties of the foreign hordes of Europe, what are they, or their rights, to us, that we should be immolated for their salvation? Let them gain their own liberties in the way we obtained them — by their own courage and self-sacrifice. If they cannot do this, they do not deserve to be free.--No people ever yet achieved their deliverance, or were worthy of it, who fled from th

Charge of Bribery --John Henson, whose arrest, in Fluvanna county, was noticed in our last paper, appeared before Commissioner Watson yesterday for a preliminary examination. It appears that he was arrested upon information lodged by Rufus R. Rhodes, Commissioner of Patents, and Americus Featherman, a clerk in the Patent Office, to the effect that Henson did, on or about the 1st of January, 1862, offer to an officer of the Government of the Confederate States, a bribe, or present, or reward in money, or cause it to be offered, with intent to influence the decision of said officer in a matter pending before him in his official capacity. E. F. Husted, a "patent agent," was arrested yesterday morning in connection with the same affair. The evidence was partly heard, and the parties accused were admitted to bail for their appearance before the Commissioner on Wednesday week. The charges involved have reference to the issue of a patent.
