The Abolition of the cartel. No person can read the correspondence between Commissioners Ould and Meredith without becoming convinced, if he had any doubt before, that the Yankee Government acted in bad faith in the matter. Mr. Ould, in fact, does not hesitate to make the charge in direct terms, and he is borne out so fully by the facts of the case that even the New York World--a paper not very friendly, it is true, to Lincoln's Administration, yet still as warmly in favor of reconstructing the Union by force as Seward himself — is obliged to admit it. The whole transaction is eminently characteristic of Seward, and not less so of the Yankee nation, whose peculiarities have become proverbial all over the world. It was, in a word, an elaborate attempt to take an advantage — a thorough Yankee trick — an exhibition of contempt for good faith when it stood in the way of a low scheme for getting the better in a trade — a substitution of low cunning for genuine ability — a mistak

h much was said about the truckling policy of the Government, old Palmerston begged Mr. Fitzgerald, with tears in his eyes, to withdraw his motion for the production of papers, (which had already been published,) declaring that the Government of Lincoln was the justest, and the noblest, and the most enlightened Government in the world, and giving way to uncontrollable emotion at the bare idea of infesting upon the maintenance of British dignity and British right to the point of offending his deemotion at the bare idea of infesting upon the maintenance of British dignity and British right to the point of offending his dear friends Lincoln and Seward. And Mr. Fitzgerald accordingly withdrew his motion. Russell is well aware that we have no means of retaliating for any injury he may offer us. He therefore treats us haughtily and truculently. But the Yankees have the means of retaliating and to them he truckles with the abject meanness characteristic of the bully and the coward.

Saulsbury and Wright. Miscellaneous. The draft in New York and Missouri was to commence on the 10th inst. In Ohio, filling the quota by volunteering had been given up as a hopeless job.

be forgotten, was no worse than the rest of his Yankee comrade in crime, and not as bad as the monstrous villains of the Washington Cabinet, under whose express and explicit orders he was of course acting. Kilpatrick and all the other officers of this and every other expedition to Richmond have no doubt had the same programme, dictated by the same supreme authority.--The misfortune of Dahlgren was that he was found out. But he was no worse than Kilpatrick and other base men, who consented to carry out orders that none but devils could have devised. The chief criminals are Lincoln, Seward, and the Black Republican crew at Washington — men who have deliberately planned and directed the commission of one of the most gigantic crimes in the annals of human warfare. Upon them let the execrations of all civilized men descend, as well as upon their miserable tools, some of whom have been sent to that great tribunal where all must one day stand and receive the just reward of their deeds.

0,000 men to the ranks of their army. This was official from the Provost Marshal General. The other was a statement made by letter writers, that not 40,000 of the veterans had re-enlisted. This last important fact caused alarm in Congress, and in the House of Representatives, a few days ago, a resolution was passed calling on the President to furnish a list showing "the number of re-enlisted veteran volunteers from each State, and other information in this connection." On the 1st instant Lincoln replied to this call, enclosing a letter from the Secretary of War, who said that, in his opinion, it would be "prejudicial to the public service" to transmit to the House at the present time the information requested. The fact is that the drafts in the United States have proved utter failures. They have brought paper money in computation. Paper money won't fight. There is very little personal danger to be apprehended from a bank note, and there is no case on record of a man having been

The publishers of the North American Review have received a letter from of treason or rebellion. But I mean no more now than to merely call attention to this point. Yours, respectfully, A. Lincoln. The sentence in the January number, referred to by Lincoln, is as follows: Even so long ago as when Lincoln, is as follows: Even so long ago as when Mr. Lincoln, not yet convinced of the danger and magnitude of the crisis, was endeavoring to persuade himself of Union majorities at the South, and to carry on a war that was half peace, in the hope of a peace that would have been all war — while hMr. Lincoln, not yet convinced of the danger and magnitude of the crisis, was endeavoring to persuade himself of Union majorities at the South, and to carry on a war that was half peace, in the hope of a peace that would have been all war — while he was still enforcing the fugitive slave law, under some theory that secession, however it might absolve states from their obligations, could not escheat them of ideas claims under the Constitution, and that slave-holders in rebellion had alone, amo

. But this we conjecture is partly the result of the feud which has arisen between the Lincolnites and the other partisans of the Black Republican organization. Lincoln has been essaying to bring; several States, occupied by his troops, into the Union, with a view of getting their votes for himself as President; and his orders onto re-organize the State Government, and bring it into the Union.--Anti Lincolnites have evidently determined to set their seal of condemnation upon this trick of Lincoln, and deprive him of any benefit to be derived from it. Of course the peace, or conservative party, aided them in their opposition, and they took no doubt an especanimated by any sudden clemency towards us. At most, he may have availed himself of the reverses sustained by the Federalists to make this successful move against Lincoln, whom he is opposing with bitterness. A few months ago Steven's preamble would have reflected the policy, as we doubt not it now reflects the sentiments, of
