DHL) IO.VXTITITIO\II,IST
BY JAMES GARDNER.
thi rsday horning, MARCH 20.
Ilelligerent England.
The tone of many English papers and periodi
cals. and the continuance of her warlike prepara
tions, on a scale of undiminished magnitude, ex
cite a serious doubt of her intention to make peace
with Russia on the only terms deemed practicable
at this tune. What England demands as the price
' of peace, Russia, no less proud than she, and per
haps no less able to continue the conflict, will not
be apt to yield. It is also a subject for anxiety in
this country that ourown relations with the British
government are extremely delicate and critical, and
recent events in Central America threaten still fur
ther to complicate them. We have seldom read a
more fierce and belligerent article than one recently
from the London Telegraph against this country,
which is now going the roundsof the American press.
It appeals most stirringly to the pride and warlike
spirit of England, and its republication in this coun
trv is not much calculated to diminish the chances
of a rupture with our hereditary foe. The labors of
the Telegraph chime in harmoniously with tha studi
ed and long continued efforts of the London Timm
and London Post, to exasperate the feelings of botli
nations against each other. Such seed scattered
among American readers is sown upon fruitful soil.
If war is really desired by the ruling powers of
Great Britain, they can he accommodated to their
topmost bent. It requires no forced culture to get
up a war spirit among our ardent and susceptible
people. But we believe the mortified pride of an
arrogant and reckless aristocracy, exasperated by
past defeats, especially by the miserable blunder
ings of their incompetent leaders in the war with
Russia, has more to do with a desire for war with
this country, than the hearts and wishes of the
British people. The masses there feel that they
have nothing to gain by war with the United States.
The commercial classes, the great middle estate,
who are the substantial men of England, who hold
the bulk of its property and mainly hear the pecu
niary burthens of the government, realise fully tin
disasters that must overwhelm their country by a
war with us—a war without the possibility of any
real compensating gain. Their hearts are not with
the aristocracy in this belligerent spirit. They
have not the same intense hatred of Republican
ism as burns in tlie breasts of British Peers.
Nor is there any solid reason why this country
should desire war with England. At least, tin
South can gain nothing by it. To ber, a war would
be au unmitigated evil. It would result in direc:
loss, aud in ulterior calamities of far greater sig
nificance. It would, in the end, operate to tin
strengthening the power and influence cf the ami
slavery element, already so alarmingly great.
W e would not have our country abate one jot o',
its just claims, or exact less than is due our viola
ted rights. But we should feel that the liighes'
patriotism of both nations, and the highest interest
of civilization appeal to the leading minds on
each side to settle the dispute without a resort fi
arms.
in this connection, we copy au editorial from the
Richmond Jtnquirer, which commends itself to the
good sense of every Southern man. and to the pat
riotism of every mao, North and South, who
shrinks from entrusting the political destinies of
our country to the guardianship of Foot, Seward
and Sumner, who have sa lustily of late cried out
for M ar.
The President’s policy of abrogating the Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty will be the first step to a pacific
solution.
The two following paragraphs from the London
Telegraph will give a fair idea of the spirit of the
whole article. It has on its face evidence of inti
mate sympathy between British and American
Abolitionism :
“ What to us is the Monroe absurdity? Who
M as the great Monroe himself, that England should
vacate possessions and territories at iiis bidding'
We care about as much for Monroe and his imper
tinence us we do for an edict of the far-famed king
of the Cannibal Islands. It is high time that
Great Britain spoke out, and with a voice which i>
never despised, when poured forth from her seven
ty-fours. Let us at once, without any more non
sense, inform our American gasconditig cousins
that England permits no power on earth to dispute
her right to her territorial possessions ; that call
ing into question her occupancy in Central Ameri
ca is considered an insult to her dignity ; aud that,
unless America forthwith renounce al! further in
tention to question our rights, England will seek
reparation for so gross an insult in American Ma
ters, where her fleets will forthwith appear, to
meet any ("uesapeakes Mho may desire to measure
broadsides with her Shannons. * * *
If, therefore, the United States Govern
ment deny, and is resolved to question, the right
of Great Britain to her Central American posses
sions, Me, the people of the British Empire, are
resolved to strike off the shackles from the feet of
her three millions slaves. And there are those
among us who will sanctity such a glorious cause ;
the people of England will deny themselves every
luxury to assist their country in a contest, more
sacred and more glorious than ever formed the
watchword of the Crusaders of old, when combat
ing the infidel hosts of aSaladin. If we have not
a Richard Couir de Lion, we have one name which
will carry liberty to millions, and the emancipa
tion, by ‘force of arms,’ of the slaves of the Amer
ican States will he connected to the end of all time
with that rallying word of freedom—Victoria.”
But whether it be war with this country, or an
other campaign against Russia, it is not to be dis
guised that England is making huge preparations
to he ready for either or both emergencies.
We copy tiie following items from the late for
eign news:
The lobe announces in a leading article that
“the people of this country need not be struck
with dismay at the possible failure of diplomacy
in bringing about peace, and then shows from the
Army Estimates the extensive preparations which
are making for the prosecution of the war, if such
an unfortunate course should be necessary. The
total number of men to be voted for the financial
year commencing Ist April next, is 2415,41 C, exclu
sive of 6,000 in India. The increase of the first
total is 35,000 over the number voted last year; the
real increase is still greater, for whereas, the num
ber voted for the present year have been actually
enrolled, the establishment for next year’s service
is approaching completion, and tin* recruiting for
the last feu- weeks is unexampled. The Land
Transport Corps will consist of 9,000 men and
24,00 > animals. The light cavalry is increased
from 11,1 us to 1.5,509 ; the artillery from 17,000 to
21,00"; virtually, the total increase in the number
of men, as compared with last year, is little short
of .50,000 men. The estimates are set down as
£32,758,000, an increase of €6,283,000 over those
of lasi year.”
“In the same journal we find these significant
announcements:
“Orders have been received at Portsmouth for
the authorities to expedite with all possible des
patch the refitment of the steam troop-ships Vul
can, Perseverance, and Urgent, as they may be
wanted suddenly to embark troons for colonial ser
vice.
“The steam transport Cleopatra embarks this
day at Portsmouth about 500 of the Lancashire and
Oxford militia for Corfu.
“The Royal Mail Company have received orders
from the Admiralty to immediately prepare their
steamships Orinoco and Great Western. now lving
at Southampton, for the transport service. ’The
Thames is also to be got ready for the purpose of
conveying to Malta, from Portsmouth, on Saturday
next, 50<i men and 22 officers, detachments of va
rious regiments.
“The General Screw Company have received an
intimation that the Government might require the
use of their four large ships now lying in South
ampton docks, viz: Calcutta, Argo, Hydaspes, and
Queen of the South, for tlie transport service. The
company are acting upon the intimation, aud the
vessels are being prepared for sea.”
Me cannot more appropriately close than by
quoting the following impressive view, by the New
\ ork Citizen, ot the attitude and plans of England :
ENGL VXD S PLANS—SIGNS OP A BREACH WITH FRANCE.
I reparations are being made bv England, for a
rupture with trance. The position of the island
empire is by no means enviable : a war with Rus
sia not yet concluded; a M-ar u-ith America threat
ening ; one ally who is suppose,/ to hold more with
the enemy than with her ; and another allv who i>
fully hnotrn to do so ; 'me ally who opened nego
tiations with the foe, without taking her colleague
into her counsels—and another ally who caused
the des ruction of her army, by insidious conduct
on the borders of the Danube. Add to this Ire
land—Australia—Hindustan, and you have a pic
ture of the approaching dissolution—you behold a
stately edifice of centuries, with all its crimes and
glories, its infamies and greatnesses, clinging to
it, but in which you can distinctly trace where the
foundation stones are giving wav, where the u-alls
are beginning to crack, where the towers are tot
tering and nodding to their fall.
England, however, as we commenced by saving,
is making preparations for meeting her approach
ing doom. Especially, her movements are direct
ed against a probable' rupture with France. With
this object in vieu-, and calculating on the possi
bility of a continued war with Russia, but without
the aid of France, she is trying to extricate as
much as possible her army 'from the Crimea, to
change the basis of the war, and to strengthen her
own coasts.
To effect the first of these objects, the following
steps are being taken ; a portion of her forces is
being transferred to Kertch—Kertch being near
the Asiatic field of action, and it being precisely
in Asia that England proposes to continue the war
if a continuance is forced upon her. Os course!
she is prepared for peace at any- price—her wretch
ed position dictates this, but s'he is bv no means
sure that, even at any price, peace may be accord
ed to her. She is, therefore, compelled to look
around, and catch at any hope of self preservation.
It is m Asia especially that she is threatened bv
Russia. The recent Russian victories in Anatolia,
have filled the East n-ith awe of the Czar's power,
and stirred up the discontented millions of Ilin
dqstan. Persia is little more than a Russian pro
vince Bokhara, Khiva, and the Tartar population
are Russian at heart—Scinde, Afghanistan, the
newly annexed Oude, even Burmah, thrill at the
hope of Russian aid. England, therefore, if forced
to fight, means to fight in Asia—and M’ith this
view a landing place has been selected for twenty
live thousand British soldiers in Asia Minor.
Mark that fact—it augurs a single-handed cam
paign on the part of England—it augurs a breach
either combatant or tacit) with France—for France
has no interest in Asia—France has no interest in
upholding British supremacy in the East—France
yvould never join in such a warfare—(unless Egy pt
should be conceded to her, yvhich England will
never consent to without positive compulsion) and
accordingly a campaign in Asia must be one u itli
out Napoleon’s aid. The plan is, to form an al
liance with the Circassians, and, having the Tur
ish Empire as a reserve in the rear, the Black Sea
held by a British fleet on one flank, and Hindustan
with its great Sepoy army on the other, to fall on
Persia from the west and’ south, and form a junc
tion in the heart of that country betu-een the ar
mies of Hindostan and England! The brunt of
the attack would be directed against Persia, not
against the Russians, for three very cogent rea
sons ; firstly, because the British have tasted quite
as much of Russian steel as they care for; second
ly, because the Persians are easier to beat than the
Muscovites; thirdly, because overrunning Persia
and prostrating it, would tend more to raise Eng
lish prestige in Asia, than even a glorious cam
paign in the gorges of the Caucasus, or the undu
lations of Armenia. This is the secret of the new
direction in the British yvar councils—this is ihe
cause of the reinforcements sent to Kertch, yvhich
forms an excellent point of communication n - ith
Circassia, and a position yvhence to cheek a Rus
sian advance along the Eastern confines of the
Kuxine ; this is the motive for the unusual energy
displayed in strengthening the Angio-Turkish le
gion. The British oligarchy- are, at last, them
selves thoroughly alarmed at the desperate posi
tion into yvhich they have plunged their country
and they are displaying energy—it is the energy
of terror; —courage—it is the courage of despair.”
In confirmation of the determination of the
British people to continue the tight yvith Russia,
yve make tu o short extracts from an able article
in the January number of the London Quarterly
fie view, which represents a large and influential
portion of British sentiment. The article is head
ed, “ The results and prospects of the M-ar.”
“We have pointed out the vast and indeed es
sential importance to Russia of territorial acquisi
tions in the East, as the only counterbalance to anv
success of the Allies in the West. It is absolutely
necessary that England and France should come to
an immediate understanding as to the means of
preventing any further progress of Russia in that
direction, and of remedying the evil yvhich has al
ready occurred. We have little doubt that the
course to he pursued in effecting this object will
form one of the principal subjects of the confer
ences to beheld at Paris, when it yvil lbe determined
to yvhich nation shall be assigned the duty of meet
ing the enemy in those regions. We can scarcely
doubt that yve shall be called upon to undertake if,
and that yvliilst the French continue the contest,
and undertake new expeditions against the enemy
in Europe, the English army yviil be transferred
in great part, if not entirely,’to the Asiatic shores
of the Black Sea. Such a distribution and divis
ion of the poyver of the Allies yy-e deem on many
accounts to be highly important and necessary',
not only with reference to the immediate objects
in view', but to the success of any future opera
tions in whatever part of the world they may be
pursued. A divided command has hitherto been
a source of undoubted disasters, and has material
ly interferred u-ith the perfect success of our arms,
whilst it has contributed in no slight degree to in
jure“most seriously our military reputation.”
“ That the war will continue, and assume far
greater dimensions than it has hitherto done, we
can have little doubt. We are equally persuaded
that the country yvili not tolerate any ministry
which is not prepared to prosecute it with vigor,
and for adequate objects. It is only by yielding to
the unanimous feeling of the nation that an ad
ministration, in itself one of the weakest and most
incompetent England has ever seen, is able to retain
the conduct of public affairs.”
From the Richmond Enquirer, March 14.
The Impending War with Great Britain.
The indifference with yvhich the people of tins
country appear to regard the contingency of a war
yvith Great Britain, presents a striking contrast to
'he anxiety and agitation which the possibility of
that event has excited among our antagonists. The
acts of the British Government aud the tone of the
British press show that in England a yvar yvith the
United States is anticipated yvith a certainty yvhich
demands instant preparation for the contest. Mili
tary operations against this country are debated
yvith an air of grave earnestness, while troops and
ships are rapidly concentrating in the vicinity of
the theatre of war. Yet, yviiile regiments of”red
coats are mustering in Canada, and squadrons of
steamships are hovering on our coast —while the
enemy is deliberately preparing to launch ihe thun
derbolt of war upon our defenceless cities, and to
ravage our country with fire aud sword, our peo
ple are reposing in stupid lethargy, or are absorbed
in the petty intrigues of ephemeral polities. This
is not the moment to discuss the causes of so irra
tional a temper of the public mind. The duty- of
the journalist is to employ all his influence in awa
kening the country to a sense of the peril, and to
the necessity of immediate and adequate prepara
tion.
Perhaps not one person yvho reads these words,
believes there is the remotest possibility of a war
betyveen Great Britain and the United States;
which conclusion is the result, not of intelligent
reflection, but of thoughtless self-conceit. Ameri- j
cans have indulged in applause of their oyvn prow- i
ess, and in contemptuous commiseration of Eng- i
land’s decadence, until they begin to speak ofa i
rupture with this country as an act of suicidal folly !
to which Great Britain can be driven by no provo- j
cation. We cannot cherish a more dangerous de
lusion. In the day- yvlieu the British power culmi
nated, British pride was not more sensitive to in
sult or prone to resentment, than at this very mo
ment. Never yverc the energies of Great Britain so
collected, or her capacity for aggressive war so
menacing to her foes. She feels no exhaustion
from the brief struggle with Russia, but finds, in
the more perfect discipline of her troops, in the
better organization of her resources, and' in her
more complete armaments, elements of power with
which she is prepared to atone for the blunders of
a pacific policy- and a defective administration.
Perhaps, too, she rather solicits than shuns an op
portunity to recover her prestige. The conceit of
impregnability u-ith which we flatter ourselves,
vanishes before the scrutiny of common sense. Our
Navy, however gallant in spirit, is hardly- a match
for a single British squadron. The fortifications
of our coast would oppose scarcely any resistance
to the destructive instruments of modern rvarfare.
Our people are brave, even to rashness; but the
battle of Bladensburg suggests a doubt if the honor
anil security of the country can be trusted to a mis
cellaneous mob of gentlemen. The impetuous valor
of our militia might be wasted in vain, against the
stubborn ranks of a disciplined soldiery. The tri
umph which our exhaustless resources and indom
itable courage yvould achieve in the end, must be
purchased by incalculable loss of property and j
many severe reverses of fortune.
Nor does Great Britain admit any commercial i
dependence on this country yvhich binds her to a
perpetual peace. If is doubtful if she has not the
support of sound philosophy- in the opinion that it
is as necessary for us to sell as for her to buy. And,
though she acknowledges the possibility of discon
tent and disturbance among her operatives, she |
proposes to retaliate by exciting insurrection among '
the slaves of the South.
But, no matter from what motive or with what
object ,it is indisputable that Great Britain is re- !
solved upon yvar yvith the United States rather !
than concede all the demands of our government, i
What are these demands? Are they such that n»
can abate nothing of their rigor?
Our difficulty with Great Britain is complicated j
by a double dispute. First, in dignity and import- i
afice, is the controversy touching the ’ construction
of the Clayton-Buhter treaty. By our interpreta
tion that treaty deprives Great Britain of ihe Mas- j
quito Protectorate and the poseession of the Rua
tan Islands. She disputes the justice of this con
struction and refuses to abandon her claims in Cen- I
tral America. Which party is right?
The sense in which Great Britain regards the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, is not so palpably absurd
that it admits of no argument. On the contrary, j
it yvas in that very sense that the treaty n-as con
struedat the time of its negotiation, by persons of
intelligence, of critical acumen. Some of the j
friends of the treaty would not sustain it in the!
. enate, until its verbal ambiguity, on the very is- !
\ r ru? l ?P ute A was removed by a declaration from
Mr. Clay ton, that the British Minister concurred!
in the American interpretation. The writer of this
article maintained from the beginning, that Great
Britain would not abandon her pretensions in Cen
tral America, in consequence of the convention of
Messrs. Clayton and Bulyver, and for this reason
| ? s we fl as because of the fact that the convention
involved the United States in an “entangling alli
ance,” and arrested the expansion of our country
towards the South, he applauded Judge Douglas
: for his opposition to the treaty. Right or yvrong,
j however, Great Britain will fight before she sub
mits to our demands. Shall we then surrender our
j claim? Or shall yve refer the matter to arbitra
! tion? Neither policy is essential to the preserva
tion of peace. Since each party honestly and per
sistently insist on an antagonistic construction of
the treaty, the logical deduction is, that the treaty
be abrogated, and the relations of Great Britain
and the United States in Central America, be re
stored to their original state. For us, this is the
policy both of safety and of interest. We yviil
thus avoid war without a sacrifice of honor, and yviil
acquire au influence in Central America which we
had renounced bv the foolish stipulations of the
Clayton-Buhver treaty. We have reason to be
lieve that this is the adjustment of the Central
American difficulty yvhich the President yviil pro
pose to the British government.
The other dispute is perfectly- clear and simple,
as illustrated in the luminous despatches of Secre
tary Marcy. In enlisting troops on our soil, Great
Britain violated the municipal lau- and insulted
the sovereign dignity of the country. We remon
strate, and for reparation get an equivocal and con
ditional apology. But, after this apology Great
Britain persists in the very offence which she prom
ised to desist. A verbal explanation yviil not now
satisfy our honor. The agents of the British Gov
ernment, yvho thus contemptuously spurn our ad
! monition aud defy our vengeance, must be dismis
sed from the country, if the British Ministry refuse
to re-call them. The removal of Mr. Crumpton
may result in a temporary suspension of diplomatic
relations, but cannot possibly provoke a yvar.
In the event of a great national emergency it is
the peculiar prerogative of the people ofthis coun
try to instruct the government by an imposing ex
pression of public opinion.
This privilege becomes a supreme duty, yvhen
the country is threatened yvith all the disasters of a
yvar yvith one among the foremost powers of the
earth. War is absolutely an evil of such colossal
proportions, that yve need not insist on its atten
dant and accidental calamities, in order to deter
the nation from lightly invoking its unimaginab'.e
horrors. But the event of war yvith Great Britain,
at this particular juncture, might, strike the pros
perity of the South yvith so terrible and irretrieva
ble a ruin, that yve may yvell appeal to the joegislu
ture of Virginia to interpose a voice of w’ise admo
nition between the country and that greatest disas
ter. The extracts in another column, from the Brit
ish press, clearly reveal the design of the British
government to strike the first blow at the heart
of the South. Whether their confidence in the
defection of our slave population, prove a fool
ish or a yvtse calculation, it is certain that the ef
fect of a yvar yvith Great Britain, on the general
interests of the South, yy-ill involve manifold and
irreparable injury. Tt is very- doubtful if the con
servative spirit of our State Rights Government
could survive the conflict. It is not absolutelv
certain that some extreme States of the North
might not be detached from alliance with the
South, and bo seduced into a crusade of arms
against slavery. In any event, the productions of
slave labor would be reduced to a value altogether
inadequate to the support of the institution. The
cotton of the Carolines and the tobacco of Yirrflnn
would waste in the fields of the planter, a n d he
might accept the emancipation of his slaves as re
lief from an intolerable burden. The Sov.th now
so rich and powerful, might be impoverished and
humiliated; and on its ruin, Abolitionism would
erect the commercial and political despotism to
which it aspires. The plunder of privateers rin ■
monopoly of the market in the purchase of cotton
and the sale of manufactures, and, above all the
conquest of Canada, would aggrandize the North
m proportion as the South sinks in the scale of
wealth and pon-er. So inseparably are the inter
ests of the South bound up yvith the preservation
of peace yvitti (treat Britain.
The belligerent tone of the. Abolitionists, habit
ually so meek and averse from violence, admonish
es us m this conjuncture to pursue a policy- of pa
citu- moderation. They act, not from impulse bur
from calculations of the profoundest policy; and
when yve hear Seward, Sumner and Wilson clamor
tor yvar with Great Britain, wc need no assurance
ihat they seek not the vindication of national lion-
T - *? nt Jil 0 degradation and destruction of flic
J hey contend not for the sanctity- of pub
lic i-.uth, but extol the particular treaty yvhich set*
arbitrary bounds to the expansion of slavery
Against a contingency- of such fatal portent to
the South, it is proper that the Legislature of V j r .
ginia should oppose all the influence of a formal
expression of the popular sentiment of thefite.te.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
f5gT" There are plenty of yonng Gentle
men, as well as plenty of old ones, whose beards

j deal of uneasiness, and exposes the age of the lat
ter. To avoid these little perplexities, we advise
such of our readers to use Prof. WOOD’S IIAIK
RESTORATIVE, which will, in the course of a
few weeks, change the white hair to its natural
color. It does not dye the hair, like the most of
the Hair Restoratives, but produces a gradual
change of color from the roots of the hair to the
final end, and gives it a fine and glossy appear
ance. We have seen many persons who have used
it successfully, and pronounced it the only inven
tion which has come up to their idea of a “cure
for gray heads.” We commenced using it about
two months since, and if we arc any judge of age
and beauty, it has made us at least ten years young
er—in fact, we are beginning to look quite young,
and feel very much like getting a young wife. The
change is miraculous, and it would be as difficult
to find a gray hair now as it would be to find an
idea in the head of the Duke of Buckingham. Wo
know several old maids an d some young widows,

Reud ing’s Russia Salve.— lt is a Boston remedy
of thirty years’ standing, and is recommended by
physic ians. It is a sure and speedy cure for Burns,
Piles, Boils, Corns, Felons, Chilblains, and Old
Sores, of every kind ; for Fever Sores, Ulcers, Itch,
Scald Head, Nettle Rash, Bunions, Sore Nipples,
(recommended by nurses,) Whitlows, Sties, Fes
ters, Flea Bites, Spider Stings, Frozen Limbs, Salt
Rheum, Scurvy, Sore and Cracked Lips, Sore Nose,
Warts and Flesh Wounds, it is a most valuable
remedy and cure, which can be testified to by thou
sands who have used it in the city of Boston and
vicinity, for the last thirty years. In no instance
will this Salve do an injury, or interfere with a
physician’s prescriptions. It is made from the
purest material s, from a recipe brought from Rus
sia—of articles growing in that country—and the
proprietors ha ve letters from all classes, clergy
men, physicians, sea captains, nurses and others,
who have ust d it. themselves, and recommend it to
others. Redding’s Russia SALVE is put up in
large tin boxes, stamped on the cover with a pic
ture of a horse and a disabled soldier, which pic
ture is ais'o engraved on the wrapper. Price, 2.5
cents a box. Sold at all the stores in town or
country, or may be ordered of any wholesale Drug
