The Yankee blockade and British Neutrality — case of "the Greyhound." It will be recollected that we published, last summer, some portions of a correspondence of Mr. E. A. Pollard with the British Minister relative to the capture of the British blockade-runner Greyhound; the grounds of protest being that the vessel was taken outside of the jurisdiction asserted by the United States, and had not been chased from the blockade lines, but was way laid on the ocean highway by the Yankee cruisethe Prize Court. This is all I can do at present. I have referred the case to Her Majesty's Government, and I deem it right to wait for instructions from them before taking any further steps. "I am, sir, your obedient servant, Lyons. "Edward A. Pollard, Esq." It is to be hoped, indeed, that a distinct determination of this matter will be obtained from the British Ministry, as it really involves, practically, the most important question of the blockade; for the Yankee practice of

Southern Sympathizers in Boston. A new volume of Mr. Edward A. Pollard's History of the War has been published. In a Northern paper, which has seen a copy, we find the following extract from it relative to the author's experience in the city of Boston before being incarcerated in Fort Warren: "I passed a week in Boston, entirely unknown and secluded, when an incident occurred that was to open up to me a new and surprising interest in the Yankee metropolis. I was sauntering in the reading room of the hotel (Young's) one evening, when an amiable-looking gentleman came up to me, with a beaming face, and whispered, 'Are you not Mr. Pollard, from Richmond?' I was so taken aback by the plump question that I could not help answering, 'Yes.' 'I thought so,' he replied quickly, 'some detectives here know you; hush, talk low — I want you to let me bring a friend around to see you at nine o'clock this evening.' I signified my assent, and awaited with some interest an interview abo

If the miserable croakers who, within the last three weeks, have been converting Richmond into a perfect Frog-Pond, will take the trouble to read Mr. E. A. Pollard's "Results of Ten Months Observation in the Enemy's Country," published in the Examiner of Monday, they would probably feel ashamed of their unmanly fears, if they have not altogether lost the power of blushing. Mr. Pollard enjoyed the most ample opportunities of judging, being a sort of prisoner at large, living at a hotel, and mixing and conversing freely with all sorts of persons — political, private and military. Among a great many things of much interest, he tells us that the Yankees are on the point of exhaustion in the recruiting business — that their last draft of three hundred thousand brought in but seventy thousand--that the larger portion of recruits since Lincoln's proclamation has been made of negroes — that Grant's army, in the lines of which he spent six days, is composed of negroes, in the proporti<

Observations in the North:Eight Months in Prison and on Parole. By Edward A. Pollard. Published by E. W. Ayres. This book, which has been looked for with interest, not only by the friends of the writer, who felt interested in his personal experience, but by the public at large, has been brought out in very good style by Mr. Ayres, the publisher. The work is entertaining, both in the personal narrative and general reflections of the writer, and will be, we think, largely sought after. The vicissitudes and uncertainty of a prison-life, in an enemy's country, are graphically described. The book is for sale at all the bookstores.
