Yankee Humanity. In the second chapter of the XIV. Book of his "Peninsula War," Naples, speaking of Percival's accession to the office of Premier, uses the following language with regard to him: "Narrow, Harrah, factious, and illiberal, in everything relating to public matters, this man's career was one of unmixed evil. His bigotry taught him to oppress Ireland, but his religion, did not deter him from passing a law to prevent the introduction of medicines into France during a pestilence. He lived by faction the had neither the wisdom to support nor the manliness to put an end to the war in the Peninsula, and his crooked, contemptible policy was shown by withholding what was necessary to sustain the contest, and throwing on the General the responsibility of failure."

And justly it did so for what can be conceived more utterly diabolical, than such a war with the sick and the dying — with the mother and the infant at her breast — with a whole people combatants and non-combatants. We believe it is some where mentioned that the godly Puritans of New England, who claimed that all the earth belonged to the Saints, and that they were the Saints, once took occasion to establish their claims to the lands of certain Indian tribes by sending the small-pox among them. We know not how much truth there may be in the charge, for we thank God we have never wasted time in perusing the annals of that detestable race, who appear to have been capable of every crime, from murder to petty larceny; but it bears a strict analogy to this offence of the British

"Is that all?" said the sagacious old bird. "I think there will be no danger in tarrying a while longer." On the next evening the young ones reported that they had heard the same farmer talking with several neighbors, and that they had promised to help him the next day. "There is no danger yet, " quietly observed the old lady. On the third evening, they told her that the farmer had been near them again, and that they had heard him say he would no longer trust to his neighbors, but would comb himself the next day, and cut down the crop. "Then," said the feathered philosopher, "it is time to be gone. Per when a man ceases to depend upon others, and takes his affairs into his own hands, his business is pretty sure to be done.

If anything further were wanting to dispel the last shadow of illusion, it has been furnished by the speech of Mr. Yancey, published by us yesterday. He tells us, what it required no residence of a twelve- month's duration in London to ascertain, that we have no friends in Europe; that cotton, so far from being a Monarch, is among the most plebeian of plants, that we cannot depend upon the intervention of any foreign power to break the blockade; that we must trust to our own right arms for safety, victory, and independence. Upon this foundation alone, in future, will all the efforts of our people be based,
