In a certain poverty anotowv ward ness of diction is faithful which was evidently not iiaHHtel for publication: My Dear Mr. Degeorge . —The desire of one* more seeing my father in this life bte made me attempt the boldest under taking tliat I have ever attempted, sod for wntbli I needed more drmneas and eosragii than at Strasbourg and Boulogne, for.l was resolved not to endure the ridi cule tnst fastens on those who are arrested under a disguise, and a failure would have been no longer endurable. But to come to the particulars of my escape. You know the ford wa9 guarded by four hundred men, wbo furnished adaily guard of alxty soldiers, who were on duty with in fitod Without the fort; furthermore, the • dwr ©f.the prison was guarded by three |ele(|,|woof whom werealwayf on duty.

Now as several rooms of the building I inhabited were undergoing re pairs, Ik was easy to take tlie costume of a workman. My good and faithful Charles TMlla procured a blouse and wooden shoes. I cut off my mustache and took a board on my shoulders. Monday morning I saw the workmen ooibe !■ at 6} o’clock. When they were at Woik Charles took some drink to them in t Mom, so as to get them out of my way; ha was also to call one keeper up etairtewnile Doctor was talking with the tijfrra. . wMw»hlle,l was hardly out of my room wjnfi I was. accosted by a wornian who ■fiffitowed me, fadfarig me for one of his com kt the lw>t of the steircase I ■found'* myself frout to front with a keeper.

I then turned the board on their side, but they appeared so inquisi tive (hat I thought I could Hot escape them, wheu I heard them exclaim: “Ob! it is Berthoud." Once on the MJtaide, I walked rapidly toward the 3alnl Quentin road. .• - - A little later, Cbarlee, who had engaged a carriage for himself the preceding day, overtook me, and we reached Saint Quen tin. I passed through the town on fook after taking off my blouse. Charles bed pr -cured a pet carriage under pretence of going to the races at Gambrai. We reached Valenciennes with out difficulty, where I took the railway. I had obtained a Belgian passport, but It was nowhere asked for.

The Toronto Globe, the most liberal joojmsi of the Dominion, says: It is not possible to gauge moral offences - bjrx anßgNMftßNriWMtfilWAf WVJ*, if this talk amounts to anything, it means, as Mr Thornton said. War. Mr. Buinner says England should be expected to admit that the recognition was uutawful. No body knows better than Mr. Buinner that that is the very thing Englaud will not do. The talk which Humoer Indulges in shows very clearly that the American Government does not wish the gngetion settled forthwith. It is useful in tuerbusi iiess of home politics, aod is regaled as a convenient screw for pressing a good bar gain with Britain in other ways. Very few in the States, except among the more ignorant Feuiane aod eoreteiid and more reckless politicians, atj this mom -nt of making the AlahteijPSfmr pute the occasion for war. ing ail their swagger, the Americana have dear ideas of what Is Involved in itreh an eventuality, and they have no inelinatioift to ruo the risk. Whenever a bard bargain baa to be driven, this, however, has been tbeir cue, and they are now feckoning upon tfle ignorance and squeezability of British Statesmen, as in former times, tor securing a good deal, at any rate, of what they want Iu this we believe they are mistaken. Formerly they were contented with large slices of territory, more than were j ustly due. The ignorance of British diplomatists made this easy. Now, per haps, grown bold by success, they dream of taking all North America as a peace offering, and imagine that all that ia nec essary to accomplish this is to kick and swagger, as in the case of the Maine boundary, and the thing will be done. Like the soldier that drew his swordi aod threatened dreadful things if be did not get a pair of boots at bis own price, they would be the readiest, aftpr getting what they w shed, to reply to tkeinquiry about wbat they would have detre sup posing they had been refused* “Done! Why! what could we have without, tb be sure!” Exactly, dml> that wilt be found to be the upshot of thewhole affair. When the Americans have discov ered that they cannot secure anything by bullying, they will either lorget the Ala bama altogether, or will agree to some equitable method of settling the claims. The Montreal Gazette, the Crown or gau, thus defends British recognition of the belligerency pf the rebels: |f this be “ the bead and front of the” English ’ offending,” the United States Government Was just as great a sinner. And why ? Let us suppos- that England had not conceded belligerent rights to the South, what would nave been the Conse quence according to all writers OR inter national law? "Only this, that as soon as the Sumter, thus Nashville, and the, other earlier Confederate cruisers arrived in England after btfrning the Brilliant and other Northern merchant vessels,rxbeir otlicers and ctew having no recognized status, would have been subject to th law and amenable to trial and exeoption as pirates, although, too, they were exer cising their recognized belligerent rtgirt to Blake ,, England very properly refused Act as bangmau for tire American Government, and when the-Wme question came up for trial and dispgul iu the United States courts, in the memorable case of (he Con federate crew seized, almost red-banded, off Charleston harbor, that Goyafnineut abated its previous pretensions, ato&euded by adopting asi miJar, course.
