A Fearful Prediction.

--The New York World says Count Johannes, alias George W. Jones — the actor, patriot, philosopher and prophet — predicted, in a speech he made last night in the Cooper Institute, that if Secretary Seward did not humbly apologize to the French Emperor for the resolutions passed in the House last Monday, in ninety days the leading powers of the Old World would recognize the Southern Confederacy. Let Secretary Seward hear and heed.
