The Anti-license law. --Among the last acts passed by the Virginia Legislature before its sine die,adjournment on Thursday night, was one refusing to grant any more licenses to carry on the ordinary business after the expiration of the period for which those that have already been issued will entitle the holders thereof to continue in business. After the first of May, therefore, intoxicating liquors will only be used by those who are able to buy by the large quantity, or who have been lucky enough to find their way into the numerous dark cellars and secluded garrets where it will be dispensed by persons who are willing to evade the law, and thereby amass money by its sale without incurring the expense which has heretofore been required to obtain a license. The following is the law as it passed both branches of the Legislature. 1.

February 15th (search for this): article 1
The Palmerston ministry. In reply to some questions put to him by the Earl of Derby, in the House of Lords, on the 15th of February, Lord Russell is reported to have said that, in the affair of the rams he acted from a sense of duty, and from no extraneous influence, believing that the rams were intended to be used for the purpose of carrying on war with the United States. From this, it is evident that he considers it his duty to assist the United States in every way short of a declaration of war, and to thwart the Confederates in every way short of actual hostilities. If he believes that the rams are designed to be used against the United States, he knows that the cannon, small arms, and munitions of war, which the Yankees obtain in vast quantities from England, are designed to be used in making war upon the Confederate States. His idea of a strict neutrality, then, is to throw open at the resources of the British empire to the Yankees, and to keep them closed against the Co

Great Britain, according to Russell's idea, is the guardian of the United States, but not of the Confederate States. And this is his neutrality: To injure the Confederate States in everything possimselves. We say nothing of the United States. The whole world has seen the papers published by the Yankee Congress, in which Seward figures as the dictator, and Russell as the cringing and subservient tool. Look at the continent of Europe.

d States. Think not that there are not some reasons for this policy.--The United States are powerful at sea, and can attack Canada. The Confederate States are shut out from the world, and cannot reach Great Britain.
