erience of the war shows this. For these reasons I do think the Federal Commander will not attack Gen. Johnston's army at Bowling Green, or in any other position where he might be likely to accept a general engagement, and, therefore, I adhere to the opinion that there will be no great battle in that part of the State, unless it be demanded from Washington, as the battle of Manassas was. Another subject of great interest which occupies the public mind is that of the trouble between Great Britain and the United States. Every telegraphic dispatch to the press of Nashville is eagerly looked for, and devoted with avidity. We were rejoicing until the last day or two over the prospect of war between the two countries, but the lest news from Washington has checked our joy. The bragging Yankees begin to shake at the knees before the growl of the old lion. We fear that Mr. Secretary Welles will swallow his Wilkes's letter of approval, and Congress will eat its own words. England may,

ount of absurdly is gabbled by the Federal press about the aid they would receive from Ireland, and a possible alliance with France, in the event of a war with Great Britain. There never was a more insane delusion than this reliance upon Irish and French aid. The last attempt at a rebellion in Ireland, in which "Meagher of the Sword" figured so extensively was a complete flash in the pan. Great Britain disdained to award to any of the leaders that palm of martyrdom which they seemed to covet. She opened her broad palm, and addressed these patriots in the sentiment of Uncle Toby to the fly, "Go, poor devil, there is room enough in the world for me and thee.n unarmed people to rise against their oppressors, and a revolution in Ireland, where at least half the population is loyal, and the enormous military power of Great Britain could be concentrated in a week upon any disaffected point, would be still more difficult and perilous. We believe that the sentiments of Mr. Smith O'Brien, i

She has 28 passengers for New York, and £7,200 in specie. The screw steamship Etna, Capt.

The steamship Borussis, from Hamburg via Southampton 18th ult., also arrived at this port yesterday.

himself. will not have long to wait. Each successive mail brings us the report of some instance in which the American nation is step by step, committing itself to a war policy with England, till, when challenged for its final decision, it will probably find that it has gone too far to have any power of retraction. The Government has re ceived the Admiralty, has thanked Commodore Wilkes, and Congress has now given the seal of its approbation to a proceeding so deeply offensive to Great Britain. It is hardly possible to imagine a Government sunk so far below its duties and responsibilities as to allow all this to go on and make no sign either of assent or dissent. The President is bound to lend his aid in guiding the Legislature to a true decision on a matter so nearly touching the duties and the character of the Executive. He ought to set before it the principles involved in the question, and to give it every opportunity in his power of arriving at a conclusion conformable

When he has completed these advances he will close up the rebellion, and then the men who now clamor for an immediate advance will be compelled to acknowledge the wisdom of Gen. McClellan's programmed. In this connection, it may not he impolitic to say that the reason why the expeditions under the command severally of Gens Butler and Burnside have not left for their places of destination, has been in consequence of the recent complication with Great Britain. The settlement of the Trent affair has changed the face of things, and now the advance of Gen. McClellan will suddenly become more general on land and sea, and in good time, if the impatient will only be patient the country will better understand the cause of what seems to the which is only a necessary pr final and glorious consumma From Fortress Monroe--flight Eaten from Fortress Monroe, (via B 31--A negro, who came into this afternoon, reports that the enemy at a pl
