VVe are permitted to publish the follow
ing extracts from a letter received by a
resident of this city, from a correspondent
in Baltimore, whose reliability is unques
tioned:
Baltimore, Dec. 14, 1SG1.
“As we think of nothing but prisoners.
I ought to have answered your last letter
immediately: but wlien I tell you of the
sufferings of our dear friends in New A ork,
you will not be astonished that I have
neglected to write, in my concern about
those nearer. Scarcely a family of any
note in Baltimore is untouched Eithei
they have sous in the Confederate army
from whom they cannot hear, or else they
have husbands, brothers or friends con
fined in Fort Lafayette.
‘Airs. ; lias four sons in Virginia,
and her husband and remaining son are in
prison. This heiress of two fortunes has
now proposed to take boarders, If none
come she must go and live with her mar
ried daughter till the the war is over.
These arrests are made with the great
est indignity an cruelty. The oppressors
come in the dead of night, in bodies of
half a dozen men. If you ask their au
thority, they show you none, but say they
were sent from Washington. One gentle
man attempted to resist this most absurd
ly illegal proceeding but in a few moments
afterwards his house was surrounded by
soldiers. They then sent for the lady of
the house, who threw a wrapper over her
shoulders and came down stairs. Two or
three of the soldiers then detained the
lady in the parlor, while two otheis ot
their comrades proceeded up stairs with
their prisoners and watch while he dress
es himself, to see that he slips nothing into
his pocket. The rest of the Federal myr
midons search every corner and nook ot the
house. If keys are not delivered up to
them, they break tlie doors. To show
how minutely the ransack.it took them
from three o’clock to seven, A. AI. to get
through; the poor lady of the house mean
while is guarded by the ruffians, and at
last hears her husband marched off, and
finds herself left to their mercy.
“Une lady asked permission to send for
her father or her brother, who lived across
the street. The request however, was
denied her. Another lady, asked to call
a female friend next door; hut was refused
They then read aloud to her the letters
her liusband had written to her before her
marriage, which they came across while
searching her writing desk, and laughed
over them before her. They would not
tell where the gentleman, whom they ar

Smith O'Brien on n War with England.
In a letter addressed by Air. William
Smith O’Brien to Air. Reward, Secretary
of State of the U nited States, we find
the following allusions to recent events:
By the recent seizure of the Confederates
Commissioners on board ot a British mail
steamer the Government of Air. Lincoln
has incurred a fearful responsibility. 1
take for granted that this act will not be
disavowed. I take for granted that it was
intended as a deliberate aflront to tlie
English nation. 1 take for granted that it
was designed as a bold and defiant an
swer to the insolence which has been di
rected against the American nation by
every organ of British opinion ever since
the civil war broke out in the United
States. However this may be, it is as
suredly anactwbicli is fraught with con
sequence may hereafter become most dis
astrous to both parties who are now con
tending with each other.
Unless England consent to forego all
claims to manhood for national honor, she
must resent this seizure, and, if the South
I be disposed to accept her co-operation, the
! successors of AVashingion must be pre
pared to encounter hazai ds more danger-
us than have ever menaced the Western
Republic. L’nited, the States of America
might defy the world; but while they are
divided, the interposition of a powerful
arbiter must rule their destinies. The
navy of England, issuing from the. ports
of Halifax, St. Johns, Bermuda, and ot
the West Indies, and co-operating with a
land fi.rce which appears to be little short
of half a million of men, will not only
raise the blockade of every Southern port,
but will sweep the American coast from
New Brunsiwick to the Potomac, burning
every town and city whit-lilies within
reach of the formidable yrojebtion of mod
ern artillery, and captuaing every com
mercial -••essel that my venture to quit the
protections a Federal Fortress.
As for Canada the modern statemen of
England care little, whether it call itself
British or American; but if an attempt he
made by the Federal States to force the
Canadians into an incorporation with the
Northern section of the republic, they will
simply bring upon themselves an addi
tional foe. They will be attacked on tlieir
Northern as well as their Southern fron
tier, and, thus overmatched, they will be
compelled to yield to the dictates or nec
essity and submit to an ignnminous peace.
This is the course of events which British
opinion now anticipates. Scarcely a sin
gle Englshman or Irish AYest Briton is to
tie found who did not rejoice when the
civil war broke out in America, because
tlie English people have been made to feel
that the United States were becoming a
Power with whose ascendancy they would
soon Ire unable to cope.—For the same
reason I atn convinced that they would
now rejoice to obtain an opporiunity of
destroying the Northern section of the
republic by forming an alliance with tlie
Southern. They would tlnisacqure, with
out impediment, the cotton and other law
materials with which the Southern States
have been accustomed to supply them,
whilst they would extinguish the political
and commercial greatness of a formidable
arival.
In view of these contingencies do I ask
yon to lower the “Stars and Stripes,” and
to humble yourself to England? By no
means; but I earnestly entreat you to re
new relations of amity, if not of affection,
wish those who are natural friend, who
ought to be your brothers in affections as
they ,it # your brothers by the relation of
kindred. Answer the British demands in
the language of diplomacy. Quote au
thorities and precedents to show that you
are justified by the law of nations, and
specially by the example of England,
in the aeisenre of these Coirnnieaioncrs.
Such discussion will give you time for de
liberation and for preparation; but lose not
an hour in liberating the Commissioners
Send them to the Confederate headquar
ters, and tell them to return to Washing
ton as plenipotentiaries duly authorized to
treat respecting the terms of an immedi
ate suspension of arms, and respecting an
early adjustment of the questions at issue
between the Northern and Southern
States.
If this be tlie language of common sense
do not despise it because it comes from an
island which has for ages been the victim
of m sgovermnent. I believe that the lan
gunge which I now hold bespeaks the sen
timents of a large majority of my fellow
countrymen and there is not among the
nations of the earth a people who enter
tain the United Slates of America so much
affection as is felt by the Irish. They
have not forgotten that they were receiv
ed and festered by tlie Americans at a
time when they were drivern from tlieir
homes by English misgovernment. and
when their death, proscription and exile
were hailed by England with a shout of
exultation which was not confined to the
prejudiced masses for whom were written
the memorable word, “The Celts are
gone—Thank God! the Celts are gone—
gone with a vengeance.” They are even
still reminded that this exultation wasl
shared and is shared, by the leading
statesmen of England—by ministers and
viceroys who are still in the habit of find
ing inevery decrease of the population
of Ireland a subject of the congratula
tion.
If you make peace with the South there
will ben* war with England Some con
venient and pasable pretext will discover
ed ior forbearing to resent the afliont
which has been offered to the Britisa flag.
England would not hesitate to assail you
as she assailed the Chinese, if you were
unable to defend yourselves; but when
she shall find that tlie shores of America
are to be definded by a million of armed
men, who have proved by the expeiience
of at least one campaign---when she shall
find that every harbor and every river
from the frontier of Alaine to the extremi
ty of Texas is about to send out priva
teers which will intercept, even in Aus
tria the gold laden vessels of England—
when she recollects that she places a reg
iment on the borders of Canada a large
portion of that reg'ment will desert to
the L nited States—-when she reflects that
if she goes to war with united America
she will be met by two hundred thousand
Irish soldiers who pant for an opportunity
of avenging the wrongs of their race—
when she is concious that five millions
of Irishmen inhabiting an island which
lies by her side, will sympathize with
America rather than with England in such
a struggle-—when she forebodes, witli
gloomy forecast that tlie glory of England
will forever pass away, and become mat
ter of history, if ever France and Amer
ica shall unite in hostility to her—when
she knows that the ruler of France is
watching, like an eagle, for an opportuni-
to pounce upon his prey, and that France
will be supported by the sympathy of
Spain, and the giatitude of Italy, she will
be slow to encounter these hazards, even
in defence of the flag that “has braved
a thousand years the battle and the
breeze.”
The effect of tlie news on the. markets.—
The London Times of Nov 2§th says: The
news of the aggression upon the Royal
Mail Company’s steamer Trent, by the
United States ship of war San Jaciuto.
produced an indiscribable effect in this city
this morning. It transpired about the mid
die of tlie, day, up to which time the Eng
lish funds had shown great buoyancy, and
after a few moments, during which it was
almost incredible, the result-on the funds
was a fall of one per cent. From this there
was a rally of nearly a half pr cent, but
the market elosed with a very unsettled
appearance, although the precise details of
the act, which are calculated to increase
to an intense point the feelings with which
it will be regarded, had not up to that hour
been published. The opening quotation
of consols for the account was 92 5-8 ex
dividend, at which there were afterwards
buyers. At 1 o'clock the notes from the
Royal Mail Company began to circulate,
and a rapid fall ensued to 91 5-S. An im
pression was then encouraged that the par
ticulars of the transaction would, on tlieii
receipt, probably show some features ol
mitigation, and, as several of the parties
by whom speculative sales bad been ef
fected, were disposed to realize their pro
fit, a recovery ensued to 62 1-2. A largi
portion of the public, however, continuei
to regard the act in the worst light, as »
confirmation of the indications so long giv
en by Mr. Seward of his desire to involvt
this country in a collision at any cost.
Should the proceeding he found unqnes
tionably illegal, there will be no limit t'
the. energy with which the country wil
respond to the demand for the requisitt

they did not do quite as well as upon tin

quite as well as that upon the same field

more moisture than some other crops, and

Do Cattle Need Salt.—W. Brice V. S.,
of Ravenna, questions tlie necessity of
salt for stock. He writes as follows :
' I once kept aliorse seven years withont
salt, and all this time lie was perfectly
healthy. He kept bis muscle well with
out grain, etuluied work extremely well,
drink but little wafer, sweat but little, and
was never troubled with worms. I have
also fattened eat tie without salt, and found
them to do as well as those that had it,
and that they had much harder tallow. I
know of several persons who have kept
work horses for years without salt, and
they all agree that they stand work better,
and last longer w ithout than with it. Som#
<>f these experiments were of nearly twen
ty years’ standing. Excesses of salt in
the stomach causes an irritation that re
quires water to antidote; ar.d if not given,
a fixed disease results. No animal can
have a natural appetite, when filled with
a strong brine.”—Ohio Farmer.
How to Grow Peaches Every Year.—
The following, by? .i correspondent of the
Ohio Cultivator, is worth a trial by all
lovers of the delicious fruit:
“Procure your trees grafted upon the
wild plum stock. The tree partakes of
the. nature of tlie plum, being hardy, and
will never winterkill, and putting out late
in the spring, will never be injured by the
frost, and it is a certain preventive against
the workings of the peacbgrub, while the
natural life-time of the tree is beyond that
of our own; so you may depend upon peach
es every year, and for a longtime, without
the destructive and disconraging influences
attending the growth of the common
peach. They can he obtained from fifty
to seventy-five cents per tree, and you
had better pay five times the amount than
not to obtain them, and be certain of peach
es every year. 1 ry it, anil our word
for it, you will be satisfied with the re
sult.”

Large, Small and Cut Potatoesfor Seed.
A few years ago, 1 tried the following ex
periment in planting potatoes, to test the
relative value of large, small and cut pota
toes for seed. When the ground was ready
for planting, I selected six rows, as near
alike as possible, numbering them from
one to six, by putting stakes in the ground
at the end of each row. The first and
fourth rows were planted with cut potatoes,
three in a hill, cutting them in the usual
way, having always one eye in each piece
and for tlie most part more. In the second
aud fifth rows 1 put three small whole
ones in a hill, and in the third and sixth
rwos, one large one in a hill.—In the run#
planted with small, and also those with cut
potatoes, the seed used was at the rate of
12 bushels per acre, and in the rows of
large ones at the of 24 bushels per acre.
The product of the first and fourth rows
was at the rate of ICO bushels per acre; the
second and fifth, 180 bushels; and the third
and sixth, 200 bushels per acre. As to
size and quality of the product oft be differ
ent rows, there was no perceivable diffe
rence.

Hie Act repealing the law of 1806 which

Braise oftinvernor Brown or any of his

and from whence fierce fulminations against
him have come ever since Gov. Brown was

Liquid Manure.—Prof. Sprengel, the
celebrated German chemist, asserts that
each cow produces annually, 18,000
pounds of urine, which contains of solid
matter 900 pounds. This solid matter is
fully equal to the best guano, weight for
weight, so that tlie liquid manure of every
cow kept on a farm for one year, is worth,
when applied to the crops, more than $20
annually, and so in proportion to all the
rest of the domestic animals. It may be
said that in no other department of rural
economy does the American farmer lose so
much by neglect, as in tlie management of
solid and liquid manures.

The War Feeling in Canada.—The
tiewsfrom Engiand relative to the warlike
preparations, g'oiiig on on account of thelate
alleged insult to the Brit'sh flag, has
aroused the good people of Ganada to the
highest pitch of excitmeut, nnd led them
to take steps for the immediate arming of
the citizens and orgnising a strong military
force for the protection of the frontier from
invasion, and such offensive measures as
may hereafter be deemed advisable in case
of a rupture between the United States and
Great Britain. In Toronto, especially, the
warlike aspect of affairs has caused the ut
most activity to prevail among the
sedentary militia and members of tlie vol
unteer companies. The only topic of con
versation in the streets and in tlie bar rooms,
for some days past, has been tlie prospect?
of war with the Neriliern States of the
Union. New volunteer companies are
being organized in every direction, and
their words and actions are drill, drill,
drill. The utmost degree of loyalty to
the British government in the impending
difficulties is manifested by Canadians of
every rank. The Volunteer Rifle compa
ny of Toronto, after their drill of ’Tuesday
night, paraded the streets, headed by a
band of fifes and drums.playing the popu
lar air of “Dixie’s Land.” ’The Montreal
Commercial Advertiser says that, for some
time past, the Federal government has been
assembling a large number of troops along
i be Canadian frontier; also, that the for
tifications at Sacketts Harbor are being
put in a state of repair with all possible
dispatch, the men working on Sunday as
well as week days. These movments it
considers a menace to Canada, and
the Candians are therefore bound to
prepare for the worst. They feel assured
hat Canada will receive the assistance of
he whole power of the Btitibh Empire;
therefore should the U. States determine
to prefer war rather than make reparation
for the alleged outrage on the Trent, the
discussion on the subject will occupy
the entire winter. As scon as nav ga-
tion opens in the spring, they consid
er that Canada would be sale from inva
sion. for then, as they contend, the
o-un-boat fleet would be able to take and
keep possession of tlie Lakes. 1 his fleet,
says a Canadain journal, now numbers two
hundred and twenty vessels, Horn 100 to
200 feet long, drawing from 4 to 9 feet
water, and carrying from 2 to 6 heavy guns,
chiefly 6-3-pounders and all propelley by
steam. There are also one hundred and
eight steam mortar boats, the whole of
which can passup the St. Lawrence canals,
and a large portion up to Rideau. Such a
force, independent ot the blockade of the
seaboard aud the pressure of the Confeder
ates on their side, will find the Northern
army plenty of employment without in
vading Canada, which will then be covered
by tlie largest British army ever arrayed
on this continent.
