The mass of the people have filled the ranks of the army again and again; they have fought bravely, and given their lives freely; but they cannot endure a continual effort that has no result, or brings only calamity, and they now begin to shrink from the useless sacrifice. Movements of Union and Confederate war vessels. Galignani's Messenger of July 20 says: An Ostend letter in the Independence mentions the arrival in that port of two Confederate war vessels, the screw-corvette Butterfly, Captain, Russell, and the paddle- corvette Paul Jones, Captain Engelid.

In the House of Commons, on the 25th of July, Mr. Lindsay, before putting the question of which he had given notice, said he desired to have made a statement containing some important facts bearing upon the American war, and tending to show how futile was the attempt to restore the Union and coerce the South; but as he had no opportunity new of doing so, he begged simply to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if, considering the great sacrifice of life and property occasioned by the war sn his arrival at the city of Mexico, was assured by the United States Government of its readiness to receive a minister from the new Empire of Mexico and to accredit one to the Emperor Maximilian.

o news whatever has been received respecting Grant for the last four mails is construed as a sign that some serious disaster has befallen his army. The French Government is said to have received dispatches representing the Northern cause as on the eve of a collapse. What is peculiarly amusing, under the circumstances, is to find the Temps and the Opinione Nationale describing the invasion of Maryland as a mere raid of marauders. The proclamation of the Mayor of Baltimore, the account of Wallace's defeat, and others of the most important features of the Confederate successes, are carefully suppressed by these honest "news" papers.

The French Government is said to have received dispatches representing the Northern cause as on the eve of a collapse. What is peculiarly amusing, other than disastrous.--We have never heard that Charleston or Richmond had been thrown into such alarm as Baltimore and Washington have felt for several days. The Confederacy is more formidable as an enemy than ever. Its Government can engage Grant and his enormous army while it stretches its arm over him and deals a blow in the North itself that is felt in every section of society. In the lower classes of the community there appears to be beginning a dim consciousness of the real state of

ion will be a closing incident of the war; but the different, or rather the abated, feeling it excites in the North gives some faint hope that a state of opinion is being created which will not howl down those who speak of peace as public enemies. During these events the paper price of sold varied in a range of thirty per cent. It rose to early two hundred and eighty, and subsided, when the worst period of alarm was over, to two hundred and fifty. It was just at this juncture that Mr. Fessenden, the successor of Mr. Chase, arrived in New York, and applied to the bankers for a new loan. He wished to obtain a temporary advance of $50,000,000 until the first of September. The cost of the war is thus impressed on the mind of the North, at the same moment that its dangers are visible on Northern soil, and its difficulty or hopelessness in Virginia.--The lessons of experience of all kinds are coming in quick succession. It will task the inventive faculty of the Government press to
