e enemy had time to entrench. A Northern view of intervention. The New York World seems to think this war a most hopeless sort of business. If the Confederates are successful the North must yield, and if they meet with disaster it fears foreign intervention. It says: If the war drags on, as hitherto, the same result will follow, since the prolongation of the war is confirmation of hope to the rebellion. If victories follow victories, if Port Hudson follows Vicksburg, if East Tennessee is held and the great southwestern artery cut, if Lee is defeated badly in Maryland, Richmond taken, Sumter reoccupied and possessed, and the standards of the Union seem advancing to the conquest of the Southern armies, then intervention is imminent. Not till then. It is one of the infinite counter workings of a benign Providence, in which good is educed from the very heart of evil, that this very imbecility of the Administration which curses all our plans with rottenness and cuts the

the burden of many of whose dispatches, as the Yellow Book shows, concerned the tobacco owned by the French Government and stored at Richmond, requested permission to ship it on board vessels to sail direct from the rebel capital the blockade to be raised at that point for the purpose. Secretary Seward was willing to grant the favor asked, but was obliged to refer the case to Secretary Welles, whose answer was to the effect that the United States had opened the ports in Virginia and North Carolina, from which the French Government could export its tobacco if it desired, and that the United States would not agree to interfere with its transit to Alexandria or Bufort for the purpose of shipment to France. He added that it was asking too much of our Government to require it to raise a blockade when nothing but the obstinacy of the rebels prevented the shipment of tobacco. To this reply M. Mercier had no answer to make. To the Spanish Minister Secretary Seward was willing to make a

ity of the whole people, have entered into a pestilent factional quarrel among themselves, Gen. Curtis, perhaps not by choice, being head of one factions, and Governor Gamble that of the other. After months of labor to reconcile the difficulty, it seemed to grow worse and worse, until I felt it my duty to break it up somehow, and as I could not remove Governor Gamble I had to remove Gen. Curtis. Now that you are in the position, I wish you to undo nothing merely because Gen. Curtis or Governor Gamble did it; but to exercise your own judgment, and do right for the public interest. Let your military measures be strong enough to repel the invaders and keep tGovernor Gamble did it; but to exercise your own judgment, and do right for the public interest. Let your military measures be strong enough to repel the invaders and keep the peace, and not so strong as to unnecessarily harass and persecute the people. It is a difficult role, and so much greater will be the honor if you perform it well. If both factions, or neither, shall abuse you, you will probably be about right. Beware of being assailed by one and praised by the other. Yours, truly, A Lincol

They have arranged a programme, which will be submitted to the President to-day or to-morrow under which they are willing that peace should be declared and the Union restored. It embraces the following points, which, it is stated, were suggested by Mr. Chase: First--Savery shall cease in the whole United States after the year 1876, the minors at that time to remain slaves until twenty-one years of age, and slaves over forty years old to have the option of their freedom or to remain with their masters. Provision is made for the loyal slave States receiving compensation for their manumitted negroes, but no compensation will be allowed to the rebel States. Second--A convention shall be called to revise the Constitution of the United States, with a view to st

Even these Mr. Seward suggests should be allowed their property, but not to be eligible to hold office under the Government. This proposition has been considered in Cabinet council so far informal; but it has developed two parties. Mr. Bates and Montgomery Blair favor it with certain modifications, while Messrs. Stanton and Chase violently oppose it. Mr. Welles is supposed also to be opposed to it. Mr. Usher, who always votes with the President, will decide whichever way that functionary does.
