I had expected to have gone with them, having with others nearly made up a party for the charter and purchase of a vessel, which was to be freighted with clothing, blankets, shoes, rubber goods, etc., for our brave fellows on the field. The Ordnance Agents of the Confederate Government seem to be actively engaged in sending arms and munitions forward, but very wisely pursue the strictest secrecy in their movements. Their doors, as well as those of Col. Mann and Mr. Yancey, are watched, and their very steps dogged, and not a man can call upon either without having himself photographed by pen and ink for the edification of the powers that "remain" in Washington.

General public opinion here is very favorable to us. Every interest of John Bull induces him to side with us in the contest. His keen trade instincts have long since snuffed up the fact, that in the altered condition of matters in America, a Southern demand for sixty or seventy million pounds sterling is about to drop like a ripened pear into the lap of his tradesman. There is only one difficulty. For the last thirty or forty years he has been howling repentance over his former misdeeds in forcing slavery upon the colonies, and afterwards in supplying them, and has

It might have saved us the expense, risks, and sufferings of a winter campaign, or at least would have opened the way for the introduction of those articles necessary to the energetic prosecution of the war, and others, the want of which I fear our poor soldiers will fell before the winter is over. The English here often make cynical strictures upon the manner of American warfare upon both sides. They cannot understand, for instance, why Beauregard didn't seize upon Washington after the battle of Bull Run, when from this stand point it seems that a few regiments could have seized it, and with it attached Maryland to the Southern Confederacy, and dictated peace as the price of salvation for. Philadelphia and New York. On the other side they cannot see why Butler, when he had conquered the way into the vast inland seas of North Carolina, hadn't followed up his advantages upon the country laid at his mercy.

Butler King, one by Judge Pequet, whose charming lady, by-the-way, was from (Richmond,) and a third by M Eruest Bellotdes Minieres — made their appearance. Immediately, almost. the tone of the press changed. In a single day twelve of the journals of France came out in long and very favorable criticisms upon M. Bellot's pamphlet, I certainly never saw a more strongly marked revulsion upon any subject than that of the French press upon this. So much for pamphleteering in France. The same remedy is to be tried here. Already the Mss. of "Common Sense Views of the American War and American Slavery" is ready for the printer and will soon make its appearance, either through the proposed "Confederate," or in an independent pamphlet.

ependent pamphlet. A great difficulty, however, lies in the fact that the Confederate Government has strangely omitted to provide the Commissioners a penny wherewithal to provide the means of thus reaching the English ear, and the whole expense has to be borne by individuals. In view of the fact that the English Government will not act against public opinion, and that this opinion is not yet ripened for us, this omission certainly seems a strange one. In the revolutionary struggle, Dr. Franklin and his fellow-commissioners had $200,000 secret service money allowed them; but here, when the promised good is so much more manifest, and with resources so much superior to the "colonies" at that time, our commissioners have nothing. Had public opinion been properly worked up three months ago, England's Government would have recognized ours. A virtual opening of the blockade would have followed, which, coming immediately after the disaster of Bull Run, would have disposed — as we thin

On the other side they cannot see why Butler, when he had conquered the way into the vast inland seas of North Carolina, hadn't followed up his advantages upon the country laid at his mercy. They seem to think that both stopped at the very time when the way was open for going on — and I must confess myself equally thick-headed. I might perhaps give you some interesting notes of this mighty "heart of the universe," but time forbids. When there is so much to write about, it would fill a book to begin — for as I write to-night, wit

Our European correspondence. a Distinguished citizen of Virginia Homeward Bound — movements of Southerners watched — public opinion in England favorable to the Southern cause — the Establishment of a Southern news paper contemplated, &c., &c. [correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] London, England, Oct. 1st, 1861. The last one of a gang of friends starts tomorrow morning at daylight for the Confederate States, and I improve the opportunity to send you a hurried note of things here. I write doubtingly, however, of its speedy reception, for, excepting an occasional private note, and on rare occasions a newspaper, nothing comes to us from the new Confederation. The bearer of this — a citizen of glorious old Virginia, who has lately, represented the late United States abroad with eminent distinction, and who, during his brief stay in London, has warnily endeared himself to all our Southern friends — starts to-morrow by the Havana route, in the hope of ru
