Tha London Tim©*’ American Corres
pondent*
It it known to all our readers that the pro
prietor of the “London Timet" bat tent over
a special florrespondent—Mr. Russell—to keep
its readers potted on the Rt volution that it
now goingei in America. He came to Hew
York, and ttaid there tome time; theuce he
came to Washington, and after looking round
there for a few days, be wrote bis first letter,
dated 24th March, lie was at Charleston at
the surrender of Fort Bumter, and it now 1
Montgomery.
Hit first letter hae keen received in th
country, and republiched in New York. I
•peaking of that city, ha tayt:
“New York, however, would do anything
rather than fight—her delight It to eat her
bread and honey and count her dollars in
peace. The vigorous, determined hoetilityof
the South to her commercial eminence, it met
by a sort o( maudlin sympathy, without any
action, or intention to act. The ou)j matter
in which the great Commercial Aristocracy
take any interest, is the Morrill Tar iff, which
threatens to inflict on them the most grievous
losses and calamity."
The “ Herald," in alludiDgtothi) paragraph,
cay« that Mr. Raeeell was in a Newfoundland
fog when he wrote that Bonnet says Russell
don’t understand New York at all; and that
because the people were qniet when he was
among them, it is no reason they are not going
to make war. He says Russell ought to have
seen the enthusiastic war manifestations that
have taken place there since he wrote his let.
ter; and then adds :
“ We change here in a tingle day. The fall
of Bumter set us all in a flame. But we are
liable to change almost an suddenly again.”
We rathar think Bennett touched the right
string iu that last sentence—a very curious ad.
mission, however, for one to make on his pres,
ent coercive, war and plunder line of policy.—
We should not be surprised if the intelligent
and sagacious Russell understands the New
Yorkers as well as Bennett. Reaction is cer
tainly at work theri. What it may accom.
pi ish is to be seen.
Mr. Russell notices Washington, and its main
u institution "—office seeking—and is particu
larly hard on the whole:
41 All the Hotels are full of keen, grey-eyed
men. * * The streets are crowded with
them; the steamers and the railway carnages,
the public departments, the steps of the Sena
tors’ dwellings, the lobbies of houses, the Pres
ident’s Mansion, are crowded with them."
He says that Willard’s Hotel is a huge cara
vanserai. “Crowds of long-limbed, nervous,
eager-looking men, in loose, black garments,
undulating shirt collars, vast conceptions in
hatting and booting, angular with documents
and pregnant with demand, throng every ave
nue. * * The writing room of the Hotel is
fill! of people preparing statements or writing
for “more testimonials," demanding more
places, or suomitting “extra certificates." The
bar room is full of people inspiring themselves
with fresh confidence, or engaged in plots to
surprise tome place, or find one out. * *
“ Sir," said a gentleman to whom I had letters
of introduction, “I know you roust be a stran
ger, because you did not stop me to present
these letters ia the street."
“As far as I can judge * * the South will
never go back into the Union. * * I heard
a gentleman of position among the Southern
party say, “ no concession, no compromise,
nothing that can be done or suggested, shall
induce us to join any Confederation of which
the New England States are members;" and
by another gentleman, well known as one of
the ablest of the Abolitionists, I was told, “ If
I could bring back the Southern States by hold
ing up my little finger, I should consider it
criminal to do so. Tbe friends of the Union
endeavor to disguise their sorrow and their hu
miliation at the prospect * * in the peculiar
excellence oi institutions which have permit
ted such a revolution as secession without the
loss of a drop of blood. But concession averts
bloodshed. If I give up my purse to the foot
pad who present a pistol at my bead, I satiafy
all hia demands; and he must be a sanguinary
miscreant, if he pulls the trigger afterwards.
The policeman has surely no business to boast
of the peculiar excellence, in such a trama -
tion, of the state of things which allows the
transfer to take place without bloodshed. A
Government may be so elastic, as, like an over
strained india-rubber band, io have no com-
pressive fores whatever: and that very quality
is claimed for the Federal Government aa ex
cellence, by some eminent men whom I have
met, and who maintained the thesis that the
United States Government has no right what-
aver to assert its authority by force over the
people of auy State whatever: that, based on
the consent of all, it ceases to exist wherever
there is dissent—a doctrine which no one need
analyse, who understand* wbat are the real
uses and ends of Government."
He says the Lincoln Government (at the
time of his writing) regard secession •• n tem
porary aberration, which a “masterly inac
tivity," the effects of time, inherent weakness,
and a strong reaction—of which they flatter
themselves they see many proofs in the South
ern^BUles—will correct. * • In good time
the violent men down South will come to their
senses, and treason will die out.’’ This he rep
resents as the feeling of the Admintration. lie
proceeds: “ But most impartial people, at least
io New York, are of opinion that the South
has shaken off tbe dost of her feet, and will
never enter the portal* of the Union again.—
She is oonfldent in her own destiny. She feels
strong ©Dough to stand alone. She believes
bsr mission la one of extension sad conquest—
her lenders ere men of eiugulur political abil
ity, and undaunted resolution. She hss but to
stretch forth her hood, as she believes, and
the Gulf becomes an American Lake, closed by
Cuba. The reality of thaei visions the Booth
is ready to test, aid she would not gow forego

Reaction In the North.
There is a reaction going on in the North, in
our opinion. We think we tee unmistakable
signs of it to a greater or irsf extent every
day. We lake tbe following from the Neif
York News, of the 1st instant, remarking that
two weeks sgo, no one—not even a French
beggar—could have found a listener in New
York, while he would sing the Marseillaise
Hymn:
Free Sfkbcii ViuDiCATBu —Si suing or t:ib
Mabsbillaisb Hymn.—At midnight, last eve
ning, one of the most astonishing occurrences
that ever transpired io New York, took place
in Broome a reet, near Wallaok's Theatre. A
Frenchman, one of four or five that go about
I be streets singing different songs, happened
to select tbe Marseillaise, for the edification
of some parties who hailed him In Crosby
street. A gang of sixteen or seventeen Abo
litionists, four of them in military uuiforms,
rushed across from Mercer street, and com
menced hissing, hooting and abusing the poor
vocalist, with the bitterness of savages. There
were only five of his patrons by. He tried to
go on, with the most soul stirring song of lib
erty ever composed; but a perfect storm of
hisses prevented him. Exasperated by the
ungeneious and uncalled for demonstration,
he plaintively protested sgainEt tbe harshness
used toward him: • “Me be von free Freuch
man,” he said ; “ me always sing di Mar
seillaise in Ni York, and never no one make
me stop before. Fy you do dis ting ? Napo
leon rules you not; ’tie no crime to shpeak von
vord for liberty.”
“Well, we don’t want a d d Southern
by mu chanted in these streets,” said a tall,
lean New Englander, bolder than hie fellows.
“That, sir,” replied a stalworth, powerful
tnau, one of the five that engaged Freucby,
“is the Marseillaise, an air weddvd to words
which all free men reverence ” «
“ We haint got no objection to the air it
self,” retorted one of the opposite parly, “but
the rebels down South make it their national
anthem, and wo look upon it as a Southern
tune, and it shan’t be sung under our noses,
that’s all.”
“ You dare not interfere, you narrow mind
ed bigot,” cried tbe big man, becoming warm,
“aee here, fellows,” he added, turning to his
friends, “stand by this poor foreigner, biug
ing a song of freedom, and the first tyrant or
tyrant's tool that raises a hand to haim him,
will see stars.” “That’s tbe talk,” responded
the four individuals, who came up from Cros
by street, “and that’s wbat yon should have
said an hour ago ; now let them ere lank nig
ger worshipers come on, if they feel like it,
aud it we can’t make them dance to the Mar
seillaise, there’s no Democrats left in Gothflm.”
Thus awed, the Republicans fell back, each
of them muttering that “people had better
mind how they talk secession here.”
We do not talk secession, airs,” answered
another spokesman of the Democrats. “We
speak for individual freedom. Liberty was
the motto on every banner raised in this city
—in this nation—until our Abolition Presi
dent was elected. Who has since heard in
public a word about freedom ? At what pub
lic meeting, since your Captain’s famous pro
clamation, has ‘liberty’ been advocated? On
what late occasion has an American dared to
say one syllable for 'people’s rights?’ And
now you throw the mavk to the ground, and
come out iu your true colors. You would not
hear a ‘Southern Uyrou,’ as you call it?”
Several Voices—"No, we would not.”
Speaker—“Then, wbat hymn do you want ?”
All Republicans—“The Star Spangled Ban
ner.”
Speaker—“Why, that, too, is a Southern
hymn. It was written by a Southern man ;
set to music by a Southern man ; first sung by
a Southern man.”
The Republicans—“We don’t believe it.”
Speaker—“ Because your intelligence and
education, like your patriotism, are only skin
deep. I tell you wbat I say is correct. Why,
there is not fire enough in Northern blood to
give life to a song of freedom. Even that ban
ner of (he stars, which you rant so much
about, was conceived by a Southern man, first
manufactured by a Southern man, and first
flew from a Southern flagstaff. This tsok
place when your fathers were probably selling
cattle to the British army, that it might crush
out “the rebels,” of which one George Wash
ington was the chief, lie, too, was a South
•rn man. But one Benedict Arnold, was not
a Southern man. He who sold 1 is country
and betrayed bis flag was a New Englander—
in spirit and feeling tbe prototype of you, who
now spit upon a country man of La Fayette, be
cause he breathes sentiments too lofty for your
cramped conceptions.”
“Down with the rebel,” “down with him,”
“give him fits,” “let us have him down,” and
such phrases saluted the ear of the speaker,
but already tbe parties badbeocme even. Tbe
five from Crosby street had been reinforced,
and (he enthusiastic manner in which the elo
quent Democrat handled his opponents gained
him a host of admirers. They cheered him
lustily, and at 12j o'clock the foiled mob wen
ded its way to Broadway, while the Marseil
Jaiss was sung aloud, chorused warmly and
cheered 100 times. 8o the right metal is at
the bottom of our eity Democrats after all,
and we are beginning to rid ourselves of mob
law.
A Proposition to luvade tho youth.
The New York Herald, iu speaking of the
election to be held io Virginia, on Thursday,
the 23d inst., says the revolutionists expeot
to carry it by sheer fores of terrorism, ss they
did tbe Ordinance through tbe Convention.—
The Herald proposes as a remedy, that the Ar
mies of the U. S. at once invade the State,
move upon and occupy Richmond ; aud from
that place, let the Commanding General of tbe
army of occupation, under tbe authority of
Abo, issue a proclamation guaranteeing full
protootion io tho elective franchise. Benuett
prediets that if this Is dons, Virginia will ov
erthrow secession and stick to the Union.
We should tblok it quite likely, if that
Northern army were able to get to, and cap
ture Richmond If (bey can da (his, (bey will
have first to put a fetter upon tbe Keel of every
freeman it tbe Slat#; aud will puffer only the
few traitors that may bo ihore, and tho van
dals that such an army may bring, to |o to tho

plished the roeult of the eleotleu will bf such
as Bennett predicts.

M litcuMoM), May 2, 18«l.
Agentleman belonging to Richmond same
through from Wahshington yesterday, tod in
dulgqd a large crowd at tbe Exchange Hotel
Iasi evening with a recital of his experience
among the enemy. A# his report was inter
esting and somewhat Important, I wit! jot
down a few of tho leading matures for the rea
ders of the ‘‘Courier.” I will premise by
remarking that he is a gentleman of ebaraoter
and position here, ©nt) hie MMeme©t may be
implicitly relied upon.
He said that tbe exoitement, or rather the
Tory of the Northern People, beggars til des
cription. They seemed to be possessed with
a demonise rage, which nothing will satisfy
but blood. The faee of every soldier in Wash
ington bears an expression of marked deter
mtnation, as if ihe possessor had made up his
mind to thf most desperate deeds. The war
will be one of subjugation, if not extermina
tion, and will be carried through with all the
vigor the Administration can command. Saw
York city has sent forth its most desperate
characters—those human tigers of the Dead
Rabbit stamp, who are respectors neither of
ags, sex or condition. George Law bad gone
to the expense of arming them with revolvers,
bowie knives and other deadly weapons of the
most destructive character. This is the class
of people the New Yorkers, who have derived
the life blood out of the South, are striving
now to turn loose on our wives nnd children
and homes.
The policy of New York is a oold blooded
and diabolioai one. ft comprehends the com
plete destruction of Baltimore. That city,
New York, looks upon ns a commercial rival,
and as regards the South, a dangeious one in
the future. It must he blotted out from the
face of the earth. There can he no doubt
that tbe Northern troops will shortly attempt
to fight tbeir w»y through Baltimore to Wash
ington. If resistance is made—as it undoubt
edly will be—the city will be shelled and laid
in ashes. Tbe heart sickens over the thought.
God help her in this hour of her trial.
There were 27,000 troops in Washington yes
terday, and by Saturday tne Administration ex
pected to have 50,000 there. Operations will
doubtless commence next week, the fir«t move
ment being made against Harper’s Ferry.—
Large bodies of troops will be consentrated
at Cairo, Wheeling, Va., Harrisburg and Car
lisle, rum. Tbe main army will advance up
on Richmond.
The narrator had an interview with Gen.
Scott. He found hiui iu bis office at the War
Department. He sat bolt upright behind a
(able, where be had been writing, and appar
ently bis mind whs as clear and as strong as
ever. He complmned of swollen feet aud
said he could uoi walk far. la answer to an
inquiry, be said be had but a little while lon
ger to live, but when be died, it should be be
neath the Stars and Stripes, lie said the
war should be prosecuted vigorously. The
Administration would not invade the South
with the object of capturing Richmond, or
Charleston or New Orleans, but for the pur
pose of retaking the forts and public proper
ty. He mentioned several points that be had
determined to capture, naming first Fort
Moultrie, then Fort Sumter, Harper’s Ferry,
&c. The last named place, lie bhould retake
no matter what might be the cost of life or
treasure.
Old Biair is the principal devil in (his coer
cion bigness. lie has great influence with
Lincoln, and completely controls his son Mont
gomery Blair, the l'ostmsster-Ofuersl, his ha
tred is directed principally against South Car
olina and particularly against Governor Pick
ens, towards whom he h*«f an implacable
animosity, in cjnstqucnce of sortie ancient
grudge.
Lincoln is continually rurrounJcd by Jim
Lane’s Kansas ruffians When visitors hnv
an interview with him, they are locked iu th
room, and must eudure the presence of th
body guard.
The Capitol has been turned into barracks
for the troops. Thousands of barrels of flour
and pork are stowed away in the magnifleient
marble corridors.
Tbe Northerners are completely at sea about
the sentiment of the Southern people. They
all believe that there is what they call “aloy
al element” in the South ; that it is cowed by
the violence of the Secessionists, and that the
moment Lincoln's army enters the seceded
States, thousands will flock to his banner.—
This idea tbe Richmond gentleman heard ex
pressed in conversation everywhere. It was
the staple of tbe hotel and bar room talk.
Upon Jeff Davis is concentrated the wrath
of the muliilude. He is abused without stint,
and it is declared that hanging is too good for
him, he ought to be burned.
The Administration hopes to starve Missis
sippi and Alabama by stopping the progress
of breadstuff* down the Mississippi river.
Parties have been dispatched to Europe
to buy Armstrong guns, rifled cannon
end other oostly war material, and even ships
and steamers, wherewith to blookado the
Southern ports. The Republican Ministers
to foreign Courts are to scheme and promise
anythiug to prevent the recognition of South
ern independence.
There was a flare up, a few deys ago, be
tween Seward and Lord Lyons It seems that
the English Minister called on the Secretary
of State to consult about tbe blocked?. Se
ward waa occupied ai the time, and referred
the Minister to his son, Frederick Seward,
the Assistant Secretary, Lord Lyons replied
stiffly that be had no business with Mr. Se
ward’* son, and left the office in disgust.—
This is a fset.
In conclusion, it was stated that Gen. Scott
declares that he has not a shadow of doubt
that all his plans will be carried out success
fully. He knows his own resources ; he knows
those of the South, and his long experience
will enable him to judge correctly of the rel
ative effect of either. Tbe fiat has gone forth
the South is to be re-conquered.
Such, in substance, is (ho latest news from
Washington, relative to the polioy and means
of Lincoln's Government anJ the animus of
the Northern people.
In oonclusieo, I will remark that I believe
the enemy are reckoning entirely without
their boot, and. before they get through, will
acknowledge that making out a campaign on
paper and carrying it out on the field, are 1*0
very different, thing? We shell see.

The True Women of the South.
The brave, waim-hearted daughters of the
South are not behind their gallant fathers,
husbands, sous And brothers, in devotion to
the noble cuuae in which our country is enga
ged. Not only do they bless and cheer those
whose duty it will be to go forth to meet the
enemy, bywords of hope aod encouragement,
but they have shown a disposition to do tbeir
utmost to render the condition of our soldiers
as comfortable as possible. Some are laboring
industriously with tbeir needles, making sol
diers' outbid, and others, like ministering an
gels’ are tendering tbeir services, logo when
ever there is danger aod death for the purpose
of nuking the sick and wounded in tbe Con
federate army. The South is fighting for all
that met hold dear, for liberty and indepen
dence, and nerved as our soldiers will be by
the inspiring influence aud noble example of
the women of tbe country, subjugation isim
possible. As an instauce of tbe self sacrifi
cing devotion of the women of the 8outh, we
are permitted to copy the following admirable
letter, written by one of the daughters of Al
abama, to President Davis :
TraxEGEB, Ala., April 30, 1801.
His Excellency Jell'. Davis,
President oj the Confederate States :
Honored Sir—Pardon an intrusion on your
valuable time. In these perilous times, it is
more than probable, that some of our brave
men, who are engaged In war against the ene
mies of our country, may be sick, may be
wounded, may need a woman's care. 1 have
no money to give my country. I have given
her roy first-born son, the only one 1 had able
to carry a musket. 1 offer now, through you,
sir, my time and my labor should they be need
ed to go to any point at any hour to nurse the
sick and wounded. I have strong nerves, good
health, aud as warm a Southern heart as beat
ia the length and breadth of our land. 1 of
fer myself to you and to my eountry. Per
h*ps this is an informal letter ; it has one
merit, it is sincere.
1 do not wish to intrude longer. If you
need me, send to me at this place.
With best wishes for your Excellency’s
health aod prosperity, and warmest prayers
for my country, allow me to subscribe myself,

J/uw to rreparefor the Campaign.—A writer,
who signs himself “An Old Soldier,” gives tbe
following advice to young soldiers :
1. Rstuember that in a campaign more men
die from sickness than by the bullet.
2. Line your blanket with one thickness of
brown drilling. This adds but four ounoes in
weight and doubles lbs warmth.
Buy a small India Rubber Blanket (only
$1 50) to lay on the ground, or to throw over
your shoulders when ou duty during a rain
siorm. Most of ths Eastern troops are provi
ded with these. Straw to lis on is not always
to be had.
The best military hat in use is the light-
colored soft felt; the crown being sufficient
ly high to allow space for air over (he brain.
You can fasten it up as a continental In fair
weather, or turn It down when ft is very wet
sunny.
5. Let your heard grow, so ss to protect tbe
throat and lungs.
0. Keep your entire person olejb ; this pre
vents fevers end bowel complaints in warm
olimates. Wash your body eaoh day, If pos
sible, Avoid strong coffee and oily maat.-«
Gen. Scott said that tbe too free use of these
(together with negleet io keepiag the ikin
clean) cost many a soldier hie life in Mexico.
7. A sudden cheek of perepiifeiieB by obit-
ly or night air often oaueea fever and death.
When thus exposed do not forget the blanket.
