The speech of Captain Winslow, of the Kearsarge, who was lately complimented with a dinner in Philadelphia, will also make pleasant reading for an English breakfast table. The gallant Captain declared it was fitting that the fight should take place where it did, to show that the United States is as invincible upon the sea as upon the land; and wound up with quoting a remark of one of his sailors to a Frenchman--"the Alabama's officers were Americans; her crew were Englishmen that is the reason we sent her to the bottom"--which was received with loud cheers.

Many Americans, in consequence of their treatment, are returning to California, who intended to stay in Mexico.
