European,Dates to Jaunary 20.

The Great Eatlern bad been bought at auctionfor X 130,000.

The Prussian military preparations were progressing vigorously.

Tbe Austrian force &r Schleswig will harJl num-ber 20.000 men.

It is fltateJ that an English squadron has beenordered to Helligoland.

On tbe 18tb, the Emperor of Austria reviewed200,000 troops, who are to march immediately forStibleswig-IIolstein- .

Don mark has rejected the Austrian-Prussia-n ulti-matum, and tbe Austrian and Prussian ambassadorsare reported to have quitted Copenhagen.

The Timet says: On the Danish aide, the lastresolve has been taken, and should any German reg-iment advance beyond the northern boundary of the

'Federal Territory, Denmark is resolved to enter onthe war with all ber energy. It is quite time thatthe two great German Powers bad declared theirfuture course with equal precision.

It is reported that the excitement is increasingthroughout Germany and at Vienna. There is uni-versal belief of active movements in the spring.

The Bank of Engltnd has raised the rate of interest to 8 per cent-Bulli- on

in the Bink of England bis decreasednearly XoOO.OOO. The Rtnk of France has lostdaring tbe month 44.000,000 francs in specie.

Paai, Jinuary 14. Duke Maximilian is expectedhenr early in February.

In the course of the debite on tbe address M.Thiers attacked the abuses of the Administrationand declared his opinion that universal suffrage willprove the only safeguard of the country.

Opposition speeches in the Corps Legulatif havegiven rve to alartuiitg remarks in Paris. It is statedthat the Emrxr.rr in greatly offended, and there we;eto e rumors of a possible coup d'ttut.

In the French Corps Legislatif several amendmentsto an addieea ere introduced expressing greatersympathy with Poland and declaring it expedient torecognize the Poles as belligerents.

Tbe report cf the committee on the supplementarycredits asked by Government, warns tbe Executiveagainn tbe daagerous entanglements. It unani-mously advises that an end be put to tbe Mexicanexpedition as soon as the honor of France will permit.The committees wind up by proposing the adoptioncfthebllL

The King of Denmark has issued a splendid war-like aldresa to the army. lie calls on it to upholdthe honor of the country by force if necessary. ACopenhagen telegram says 14,000 troops of tbe reserve hve been ci'ded out.

The report that an Anglo-Frenc- h fleet would soonviit Copenhagen is contradicted, but tbe fact thatthe English c'a nnel fleet is recalled home lends somecolor to the statement. Tbe German troops in Hoistein show continued activity. An official and general correspondence of Vienna cautions the minorGerman States against precipating action againstDenmark, and warns them against carrying outthe attack.

Londos. January 19. The Timet city articlesays the demand sent to Denmark by Austria andPrussia for the withdrawal ol the Constitutionalforces, on pain of tbe immediate occupation ofFchleswig-IIolstei- n. bad produced a depression in allthe markets yesterday. In foreign securities extremeLea? ineas prevailed.. The Government investigations into tbe case of tberebel privateer Rappahannock, late war steamerYiclor, resulted in prov'u g certain officials at Sheer-ies- s

guiity of gross neglect of duty and violation ofihe neutrality laws. The Government is determinedu prosecute Mr. Quibble, tbe principle engineer and

inspector, who was brought before a magistrate and'dcnnl over in heavy bonds. No proceedings havias

. yet been taken against tbe others.A Hamburg telegram says tbe Danes had opened

the dims of tbe Elder, to inundate the country.The approaches to Frederickstadt bad been obstruct-ed. The principal military force of Denmark was16,000 men, concentrated in tbe city of Schleswig,where eoIc.nl palisades and extensive barricades

ere being erected. A class of soldiers of tbe age of3, had been called out by tbe Danish Government.Warlike preparations were going on in Norway.

It is reported that Saxony and Hanover will allowfree passage to tbe Austrian and Prussian troops.Tbey are to march without delay into Schleswig.

The London Timet of January 24th has a reportthat Denmark has offered to suspend the obnoxiousConstitution end address. If such an offer has beenmade it will for a time avert the imminent danger ofan European war.

The Paris correspondent of the London Heraldjs that France is quietly but actively preparing for

wf". en,9 boraes, ambalances, shoes, uniforms,n 1 in short all tbe requirements for campaigning,re being prepared on a formidable scale. Other

correspondents speak of a general impression inFrance that there will be war in tbe spring, thought w not agreed with what Power.

In political circles in Paris the Congress is thoughthopeless, but negociations respecting it will probablydrag on for some time. The grossest exaggerationsagainst Ra9ta are circulated in the French papers,the object blng to inflame the public mind in favort Poland.

SATURDAY, MARCH 5.

TIio IToroIpjix Ne-vs- .

The foreign papers received by the Smyrniote,though interesting brought no very importantnews. In the United States, the various armieswere are at a stand still, n& usual in the winterseason, and except around Knoxville, in Tennes-see, there was no fighting to speak of. GeneralaMeade, Gilmore and Grant were away irom theirrespective commands, which certainly indicatesanything but fighting near at hand. The proba-bility is that there will be no important forwardmove made by the Union armies till dry weatherhas set in in the spring, perhaps March or April.

On the other hand, we see it reported that therebels are concentrating for a vigorous caniDaiguagainst Tennessee and Kentucky, with the hopeof recovering the territory they have there lost,but unless they can retake Chattanooga andKnoxville, all that they can accomplish will beconfined to raids into those States. Gen. Mor-

gan, who was for a while a prisoner in Ohio,and escaped, has been placed in command of5,000 rebel cavalry, and purposes scouring Ken-

tucky again. He can do much damage, nodoubt, as those cavalry expeditions are bo fleetthat it is impossible to guard effectually againsttheir attacks.

"We observe a disposition to continue Mr. Lin-

coln in, the Presidential chair, and the probabili-ties are that he will be nominated, and if eo,re-elect- A change of President at this junc-ture would be fraught with extreme peril.

"Tne European news is interesting, and theDanish question is approaching gradually to anopen war. Troops of Austria, Holstein, Ger-

many and Denmark are confronting each other,and any day they may clash together. The highrates of interest ruling in France and England(8 jer cent.) ehow that the fears of the moniedmen are aroused, and that war is apprehended.The drain of bullion from England still contin-ued at a rapid rate, baffling the wise men of theEast as to where it goes to. Notwithstanding theimmense annual yields of Australia, California,Mexico and South America, the increase of speciedocs not keep up with the actual necessities oftrade.

Later.The arrival of the Comet on Thursday was quite

unexpected. She briDgs fifteen days later advicesthan the above vessel , and bas distanced the J..

Eldridge, which sailed one day ahead of her.The news brought by her puts a different face onthe war movements in the United States, and weare advised that the Spring campaign has fairlyopened, with a probability of active advances in

quarters.Gen. Sherman is moving ou Mobile with a forceabout 30,000 troops, and at latest advices had

reached Meridian, which is near the state line be-

tween Alabama and Mississippi, in his marchfrom Vicksburg. General Tolk, with his rebelforces, was falling back before him. As AdmiralFarragut is to co-oper- ate with the naval forces,

cannot be loDg before we hear of some demon-

stration. The latest advices from Sherman's armyto February 10th, received through rebel

sources, reporting a battle fought between Sher-

man and Polk at a town called Enterprise, aboutmiles south of Meridian. Sherman's troop

had also destroyed an important bridge on the

railroad between that place and Mobile, whichprevents the rebel forces retreating to Mobile.Altogether, it looks as if warm work was goiogon around Mobile, and no wonder great con

sternation exists in the city," as the latest tele-

gram reports.On the 12th of February Gen. Grant's army,

numbering S0.000, received orders for advancingSouth, their destination being Atlanta, Georgia,which is the head --quarters of the rebel army un-

der Johnson. One corps of Grant's army, underGen. Logan, numbering about 15,000, were mov- -

ing south turougn tne miuaie oi --Yuioama, iuflank Atlanta, or assist in the attack on Mobile,as might be required.

In evident with these severalmovements, we find a land and naval expeditionhad sailed from Hilton Head, S. C, to attackSavannah. These various moves appear to be

part of one great plan to attack the rebels on allpoints at once, so that their forces can not be re-

moved from one quarter to another to assist indefending the weaker points, or gaining a victoryby rapid concentration of troops. If the news bythis arrival is reliable, the Spring campaign maybe considered as fairly opened, and subsequentmails will bring us the results.

The news concerning the privateer Alabama,of which we publish the full particulars, confirms

the report before received of her being in theChina seas. She was undergoing repairs at Amoyon the 2d of January. The United States steamerWyoming was also in the same port, and we

question very much whether the two vessels willleave it without a trial of strength. The sloop-of-w- ar

Jamestown had sailed from Kanagawa forAmoy, and would arrive there early in January,and probably before the Alabama would be readyto sail again.

The latest telegraph from Europe reports thatthe Alabama was at Rangoon January 5th' Thismuse be incorrect, as Rangoon is a port of .Bur- -

raah, 1,500 miles from Amoy. She may havebeen there ' December 5th," which mistake indate may easily have occurred in sending thenews around the world. Amoy is a port ofChina, opposite the Island of Formosa, some 200miles north of Hongkong, and SQO miles south-west of Kanagawa, Japan.

The gallant conduct of the captain of theJamestown in weighing anchor and proceeding tosea from Kanagawa immediately on hearing thenews of Semmes being at Amoy, although .blow-

ing a gale at the time, is worthy of all praise, andwe only hope that he was able to join the Vyo- -ining in time to try and see what could be donewith the rebel pirate. For once we hope Semmeswill be brought into a fair fight, even though thesacredness of a neutral port be violated by theact, as was done in the harbor of Valparaiso inthe war of 1812.

The news from Europe is also highly import-ant, as the first report of open war is received.An engagement of six hours' duration had occur-red on January 3d, between the Danes and theGerman-Prussia- n army at Missundi, in whichthe latter were repulsed. The Danish losswas about 200, that of the Prussians about200, though some accounts make it greater. Nowthat the war has opened, it is not unlikely thatEngland aud France will be drawn into the fracas.

(Correspondence of the Pacific Com'l Advertiser.)

Gnu ho ou Sugar PlautaliouMr. Editor: The subject of minoring the cane

fields is one which already begins to force itself uponthe attention of our planters. Few of our planta-

tions are so conditioned that they can dispense withthe aid of fertilizers, after a series of years of con

tinued cane raiding, and yet, with the exception ofone planter, I do not know of any who has had theforethought of making his arrangements in such wayas to make the plantation produce the fertilizer bya judicious combination of stock breeding with thegrowing of the staple, considered a fundamental rule iof wholesome agriculture in the older countries.Many of our plantations do not command an area ofpasture ground requisite for such a purpose, and.with all, the development of the system will requirea considerable length of time. An immediately available fertilizer is the desideratum. Now, probably to

others it has appeared singular, as it does to me, thatHonolulu should be the scat cf the agencies of twoguano companies ana tne resort oi so many guanovessels, and not a ton of guano should be applied to

the necessities of our agriculture. Want of confi

dence in the value of the guanos in question can bethe only reason for this anomalous state of things.and the wish to see this point cleared up, has prompted these lines. When conversing some time ago withMr. C. A. Williams on this topic, I suggested tohim the idea of placing a small quantity of his guanoat the disposal of our planters for experimental pur-poses. Mr. W. immediately assented to it, and hasfiow most liberally caused to be forwar ied here per Helen, 15tons of guano from M'Kenn's Island ti be gratuitously distri- -'

buted among such planters as are willing to t?iva it a fair trial.Gentlemen wishing to avail themselves of this opportunity mayaddress themselves to the undersigned or to Mr. K. ri. Pratt,agent of C. A. Williams & Co. . In order to obtain accurate tts

from the experiments instituted, I would recommend thatnot more than acre be applied to eacli, one-ha- lf of which onlyshould be manured by the guano. The quantity of cane pro-duced by the guano, as well as that produced without, should beascertained by weight, likewise also the density of the juice ofeach kind. If such results be communicated to me, I shall seethat they be published. It may be well to state here that ex-periments on the Island of Mauritius, made with this guano,have been highly in favor of it, and have led to extensive ordersfrom that island. The cost at which it could be laid dowu here,would be so lew as to bring it within the easy reach of everyone. It may not be superfluous to remark that the guano hasto be sprinkled at the bottom of deep furrows, before the cane isplanted. The quantity best suited has to he found out by theexperiment. I should recommend about los. or 2 tablespoonfulsto each plant. An the guano contains very little ammonia, nogreat injury may be anticipated from over-doin- g.

Most respectfully yours, Wm. Hillkbeasd.

The Speedwell This favorite packetoff the port Wednesday, quite surprising our people,who took ber to be the Arctic, with her well knownHawaiian ens'gu flying. She is en route from Lon-

don to Victoria. Her report will be found eleewhere.From that we learn that she had rough weather In theAtlantic, but milder on this side the Horn, ami throughoutproved herself a goo 1 ship.

NOTES OF THE WEEK.

The Nkw Packet Smtsxiote. On Saturday last,just after our paper had been circulated, this eagerljr- -locked-fo- r vessel came in, bringing oar mails, thoughhaving had long passage of 21 days. She is

handsome, saucy-lookin- g craft, evidently built forswift sailing. "She's got the metal in her," andCapt. Burditt intends to bide his tioie to show whatshe can do, though her pioneer passage down hasbeen an unlucky one. Her cabin is large and roomy,and judging from observation, she will be found acomfortable and easy vessel, and become a favoritewith travelers. In the Alia, we find a full accountof her, which we give entire :

Thk Xew Hosoixlc Packets. From truck to keel, fromstem to stern, the Smyrniote is a beauty, a theme for admira-tion, which our web-foot- brethren enjoy with a degree of sat-isfaction always realised by a true sailor when he heaves insigbt of a fii.e specimen of naval architecture. Capt. Burditt,an old cruiser in these waters, and a part owner, Keeps her likea yacht, in ship-shap-e order. Designed for a packet, she has alarge saloon tastefully finished with rosewood, satin wood, andmahogany comfortable and convenient fitted with even theluxury of a bath-roo- and well adapted for the Island trade.She was modeled by Pook, the noted designer of McKay's far-fam- ed

East Boston clippers, and combines a legion of good qual-ities. She unites great strength with remarkable speed, Is easyat sea, works like a yacht, stows a large cargo or can carry aheavy one for her model is buoyant. She was built, by day'swork, wholly of Massachusetts pasture oak, from keel to kelson;her ends are spanned by heavy pointers and breast hooks; sheis stronely kneed and copper fastened, has a half-dec- k andpartner beams, rates A 1 with underwriters, and Is fitted in thesame style as the best European packets. Aloft, strongly audneatly rigged, with the best modern improvements, her rolling-topsai- ls

(Cunningham's latest pateat) are well calculated tobutfet old Boreas in his sterner moments, while a saucy-lookin- g

sky-sa- il stands ready to catch the faintest expression of his --

geutler moods. Before rounding Cape Horn she made a voyagefrom Boston to Smyrna, a trade fur which she was designed, andfrom which she takes her name. Over this distant race-cours- e,

long traversed by our fastest fruiters, she stands recorded firstin speed, having made the passage in twenty-ei?- ht days, theshortest time ever made letween the ports. Our trade with theSandwich Islands is rapidly developing, and the periodical ar-rival of this vessel every few weeks, will soon render her namefamiliar to our readers as u household words," and she will formone of our regular channels bringing news to his great centralheart of the western coast. She now takes her place with theOnward and A. A. Eldridgt, in Charles W. Brooks & Co.'s lineof Hawaiian packets, and all interested Iu seeing a pretty cruft,will find her well worthy of inspection. She has landed hercargo from Bostou in excellent order, and is now loading atClay street wharf.

Panama Steamers. The following will interestthose who are desirous of learning the expense of get-

ting to New York or England, via San Francisco.Depap.ti.re op TH3 Paxama Stsausrs. The Opposition

steamship America and the Pacific Mail Company's steamshipSt. Louii left port this morning, says the Bulletin of Feb. 3,bound for Panama. Both vessels carried large numbers of pas-sengers, the former reporting 450 and the latter 422 as being onboard. Spectators on the wharves estimated the number oneach steamer as largely exceeding the number reported. It iaunderstood that the St. s carried off to-d- $2,000,000 ingold coin, of Government funds, on account of the Sub Treas-urer, which does not appear on her manifest. In addition, shealso carried away the sum of $1,377,&12 02 in treasure. Therates of fare were as follows: Per America after cabin,$105; dining cabin, $135; 2d cabin staterooms, $90; do. berths,$80; steerage, $50. Per Sf. Louis upper saloon, $162 50;dining cabin, $130; 2d cabin, $82; steerage, $54.

Loss of the Jenny Ford. The barkentine JennyFord, formerly engaged in the lumber trade betweenPnget Sound and Honolulu, was wrecked on the 31stof January, while beating out of the Golden Gateat San Francisco, bound to Teekalet. She missedstays, and went broadside on the rocks at the North Head, nearthe light house. The capta n and crew escaped by getting ontothe rocks and swimming ashore. The second officer and a pas-senger were drowned. The J. F. was a fine vessel and a remarkably fast sailer. She was valued at at ut $15,000, andowned by Messrs. Pope aud Talbot. The wreck sold for $310.

Accident and Loss of Life A native, whosename we have not learned, belonging to Lanai, who

purposed leaving Hilo in the schooner Marilda, hav-

ing laid pome articles ou the railroad track at Kai-wi- ki,

and eeeing the cars approaching, attempted toremove his things. While in the act of doing so, thecars struck him, knocking him down, and crushing him in themost shocking manner, from which he has died. This sameman was on board the Emma Rooke at the time shewas lost. The railroad track is about two miles in length, audis used for bringing wood or cane to the mill of the plantation.

Spbino Whalers are beginning to drop in, thethree arrivale this week being well stocked with He.

The Oriole is a fine little clipper, a perfect beauty,almost too good for blubber-huntiog- , and CaptainJerneean formerly of that lucky vessel, the Erie, is just theman to make his bird sine songs that will charm the whalesaround her. She can do it, and has done it, for on the passageout, and she is only eight months from New Bedford, Bhe hasstowed down 205 bbls. sperm oil. 535 bbls. of whale oil,and 5000 lbs. bone a cargo worth $30,000 dollars to-d- inNew Bedford. Capt. J. says that the whales actually followedhis ship. We hope he will always have the same luck.

y Schooner Marilda. This Hilo packet sailed onThursday in charge or (Japt. Marcbant, an old favor-

ite in the coasting trade. While he had charge ofthe Kekauluohi, she was kept flying around like a Japanesetop, so that weeds could never get a chance to grow on her bot-tom. The Hilo public will doubtless enjoy again the luxury ofa regular packet." -- -

The Yankee goes out this morning early, wellfreighted with sugar and other island products. Shealso carries a crowd of passengers, who will be foundreported elsewhere. Every berth, we understand, is taken up.We wl-- h them all. as well as her captain and fficers, a shortand pleasant trip over, and another 11-d- passage back.

From Tahiti. The brigantine Tawela, 18 daysfrom Tahiti, touched at this port on the 29th, enroute for San Francisco, with a cargo of oranges.We could gather no news from the Society Islands by her. Shesailed again the same day.

j J3f" Whales were seen gamboling off the entrancef the harbor on Wednesday afternoon, probably enjoying them-

selves under a lee shore, for a change.

following extracts are from Rebel papers.Ricbmosp. February 8. Richmond is threatened

by the enemy. Our pickets were driven in on Satur-day night at Bottom's BriJge, 12 miles from Rich-

mond. . .tv- - .Cat.! that the Government for some

days past has been in possession of facts that hintedbey end a doubt of the existence of a secret organiza-

tion of disloyal men, having for its object the releaseof the Yankee prisoners and the assassination of thePresident and the destruction of the Governmentbuildings. The matter waa placed in the bands ofdeecttives and resulted in the arrest of a Governmentofficer, named Heinxe, a member of the treasonableorgmisation. Important papers were also seiz-

ed, including lists of members of the organization.Other documents were seized of such a character asto leave no doubt of Heinxe's crime and the crimi-

nality of others.From other sources we have the following items :

Captain Porter, of the Fourteenth New York Cav-

alry, arrived overland from Richmond to-da- y, havingescaped from the Libby Prison a week since. Therations then issued to our oficers in the prison, con-

sisted of a quart of rice to sixteen men every eightdays, a small piece of corn-brea- d every day to each,and about four ounces of very poor fresh meat oncea week, with salt and vinegar Tery rarely.

A secret Union Association has been formed inVirginia; that it is known to have over ten thousandmembers; some of these are wealthy and influentialcitizens. The letter says Jeff. Davis knows this andhas ordered several suspected parties to be arrested,and that secret agents are now on the bunt for allsuspected traitots.

The Tribune bs a Washington letter which sayLee has received 20,000 recruits. Longstreet is nowto be strengthened. His force is sail to be 45,000men. Breckinridge and Buckner. the writer says,are to invade Kentucky, assisted by Longstreet,either by remaining in reserve at Bull's Gap. or ad-

vancing to Central Tennessee to attempt a movement

ea the rear of Grant. The latter sceuis to be out of

the question.Army officers from the front express the opinion

that within ten days the roads will enable the rebelsto move, and they will inaugurate the spring cam-paTr- a.

Two opinions prevail one. that they willattack square in front, and endeavor to driva Meade

within the defences of Washington; the other, thatLee will go rapidly up iuto Pennsylvania, plunderingv istly more than last year, end fightiug pitched bat-

tles, but only on a line of safe retreat.Col. Streight ar.d one hundred and ten privates

had escaped from the Libbey Prison in Richmond, by

digging a tunnel under the wall of the prison. Some

of these men have been recaptured.

Forts ess Mos'bce, February 15th." I have re-

ceived a telegram from General Wistar, which statesthat Colonel Streight, with one hundred and tenother Union officers, escaped from the prison at Rich-

mond, by digging a tunnel. Colonel Streight andseventeen others have arrived safe.

excitement prevails. People generally are confident.The enemy 30.000 strong. Gen. Ross whippedtheir cavalry yesterday on the Yazoo.

A Chattanooga telegram of yesterday reports mat-

ters unchanged. Sherman's progress is said to ex-

cite great consternation among the rebels.

The Timu't letter from Chattanooga says that de-

serters are pouring into our lines by hundreds, andan open mutiny is feared by the rebel leaders, in con-

sequence of the late Conscription Law.

in rxirt at AruoT. point? Intnrlorlr. The alnon Ta met- -town left Kanagawa, Dec 26th. It was reportedthat sbe bad gone to Amoy.

The Wyoming carries six guns and two pivot guns.The Jamestown is an ed sloop-of-wa- r. If ashe should arrive in time, the chances of the captureof Semmes and the Alabama are decidedly good.Never bad officer a more glorious opportunity to im-

mortalize bis name than Capt. McDougall. If beshould seize Semmes in the dock at Amoy, nobodywould have cause for complaint but bis CelestialMajesty, and be is generally too absorbed in heavenly meditation to notice such trifling incidents as thecapture of pirates, even if the strict rule of international law should thereby be violated.

If Capt. McDougall should bring Semmes In Irons to SanFrancisco, though the gyves may have Brit been placed co hisankles within the Jurisdiction of China, no very serious com-plication can ensue. Let him remember the HsJteras, and hewill have no hesitation ia the course lie should adopt. Shipahoy !" sung out the captain of the Halt trot. The reply was

The " Alabama" and Her Pursuers.FI0HT1KG TRIM OF THE " WTOMISQ" AND " JAMES-

TOWN."Captain Moorehouse, of the brig Ada D. Rogers,

from Kanagawa, informs us that the news of Semmesbeing entrapped at Airoy reached Kanagawa shortlybefore the brig sailed for S in Francisco. The TJ. S.sloop-of-w- ar Jamestown was then in port and at oncegot under way and put to sea in a gale, with doublereefed topsails and a fair wind. He did not statewhither he was bound, but the American shipmastersin port bad every reason to believe and to know thatbe went to join Captain McDougall of the U. S.steamer Wyoming, at Ainoy. Captain Moorehousewas on board the Jamestown just before she sailed.Sbe was in spleudid fighting trim, and had one of thebest crews be had ever seen. She is one of the oldclass of sloops-of-wa- r, but she carries guns of largecalibre.

The Wyoming is very heavily armed, having besides herbroadsides of 8-i- guns, two ll-ln- cb pivot guns. It waa supposed that the Jamestown would reach Amoy in about a weekfrom the day of her departure; the distance is some eight hun-dred or a thousand miles. She sailed on ttie 26th of December.

S1TUATIOX OF THE "ALABAMA," CHANCES FOB A FIGHT.

The harbor of Amoy is small, but deep, and well shel tered.It is opposite the Island of Formosa. The dock in which theAlabama was undergoing repairs, is of stone, and is the proper-ty of certain Chinese merchants. It is situated on the westernend of the Island or Amoy, upon which the town of that nameIs built, and opposite the small island of Ku Lan; Pu.' There are three channels from the outer bay into the harborby which the dock can he approachnd one, between Amoy andthe mainland is shallow and impracticable save for Chinesepilots; the other two are deep and easily navigated. Of these,one passes to the southward of Ku Lan? Su, and the other be-

tween that and Amoy. The captain thinks that the two warahipa would not confine themselves to a mere blockade, butproceed at once to attack the pirate in his helpless condition;as he would be more than a match for a sailing vessel, such aathe Jamestown, while the Wyoming could only keep guardover one entrance.

inr IcfTT V rwi TROM A MOT.

The ship Henry Brigham and the brig UUneoe were to leaveKanagawa in about two weeks after the Ada D. Roger left,and will be very likely to bring some stirring news, as intelli-gence from Amoy is constantly being received by the steamerswhich touch regularly at the Chinese and Japanese ports.

The harbor of Amoy is not fortified, so that if the Chineseauthorities wished it, they could not interfere in a fight. It wasgenerally supposed, however, that the sympathies of the Chi-nese were against the pirate and his steamer.

Semmes letter of defiance.Just before the . T. R. lea Kanagawa, the captain of the

Jamestown received a polite letter by mail from Semmes, inwhich the writer states that when he captured and burned theship Contest he had found in the cabin of that vessel sundrypackages containing presents, etc., from that officer to friendsin New York ; that he had carefully preserved them, and wouldbefore long deliver them himself at New York, where he and hisship (or hi) would be before long.

The rebels bad one hundred and fifty torpedoes tofloat down the Savannah river, and eight thousandtroops were quartered around the city. The Georgiaresriments had already mutinied in consequence ofshort supplies. Two blockade-runner- s at Savannah

. .i - ' 1 .toare watcning an opportunity io pass uur juuuuio.The Times dispatch says it has been ascertained

that the main body of Lee's army is between Gordons-vill- e

and Orange Court boose. Citizens residingwithin the enemy's lines say that Lee expects to have45,000 conscripts added to his army by the new levy,raising it to 80.000 or 90,000.

A special to the New York Herald, from Washing-

ton, says it is reported to the military authoritieshere that troops from Lee's and Beauregard's armiesare being sent to other points in the Confederacy,probably to Mobile. Atlanta and Knoxville. It isstated positively that Lee has only 80.000 infantryon the Rapid Ann, though bis cavalry are beingreinforced.

The British war steamer Petrel, with dispatchesfor the rebel Secretary of State, arrived off Charles-ton bar on the 6th. and requested permission to com-

municate with the British Consul at Savannah, whichAdmiral Dupont refused. The Savannah Republicangives a gloomy account of robel affairs.

Accounts from the South state that the rebel armiesembrace, to-da- y, more than at any moment since thecommencement of the war. the conscription havingbeen ruthlessly enforced. Before spring the militaryauthorities here believe much of the advantage gainedehe last twelve months must inevitably be lost bytvacuation of territories which we have not sufficienttroops to garrison.

tood that the government ia preparing a protest against theFrench occupation of Mexico.

There are reports that it is intended by our Gov-

ernment to protest against the French occupation in Mexico,which are certainly rot we'l founded. The policy of the Gov-

ernment on this point has been fully explained in the latelypublished diplomatic corref ondence.

The Herald's special Washington dispatch says thepolicy of extending the President's amnesty to Colonels is muchtalked of. Rebel prisoners and refugees state this would causewhole regiments to.desert.

The Montgomery (Ala.) Mail says that rumors ofthe evacuation f Richmond are gaining credit. The arrange-

ments on foot will create more consternation at Richmond thananythir.g that has occurred during the war.

The Richmond papers contain an account of therunning ashore and burning by the crew, of theblockade-runne- r Vesta, with a valuable cargo ofarmy supplies. This occurred near Wilmington ontbe 10th of January. Tbe Vetii was a new double-scre- w

steamer, on her first voyage.Tbe Richmond papers also contain aa order from

dispatch to the IVorld Copperhead Ed. Bcixetiksays that it is rumored in high official circles that weare upon the eve of a war with France. . Seward issaid to have pursued such a course towards theFrench Government concerning the Florida, theRappahannock, and the rams known to be buildingin France for the rebels, as to elicit a reply from tbeFrench Foreign Minister, in accordance with whichthe United States must either abandon her preten-sions or go to war to maintain them. Mr. Daytonwas, it is stated, instructed to demand of France thesurrender of belligerent rights accorded to the rebels,and it is certain that there is some serious dihicultywith tbe French Cabinet which alarms all but Mr.Seward. He. in view of the almost certainty of warin Europe, takes the highest possible ground towardsFrance. ' Note. This may be taken for what it isw ort h. Reporter.

The special Washington dispatch of the Tribunesays that it is stated that Mr. Dayton will shortly berecalled from France. Gen. Fremont has been ap-pointed to succeed him. There are those who assert,however, that Fremont could not be tempted even bya daintier dish- - - - .

The Jissitif tctioo in Lee's army in consequence ofj th reJucticu of rations has reached to such a pitch

a required the commander to issue an orJer appeal'ing to their patriotism and religion to prevent mutiny.Recent intelligence from Lee's army states that theyare executing the tithe tax one-tt-nt- h cf all f raeand supplies on the inhabitants thereabout, aoitbit tbe horses of the army received only four earsf f corn a dj. The animals ure not allowed to beUeed except on an extraordinary emergency.

Specials from Washington say tbe Senate Commit'tee CD Commerce bave two important measures underconsideration. The first is the establishment of aline of steamers between California and China, andtbe other for a line between this country and SouthAmerica; both lines requiring subsidies. The Com-

mittee U disposed to be liberal in the matter.WASHiSGTOjr. February 1. It is hereby ordered

A. Liscolx.News from Southern Papers.

The Richmond Examiner of tbe 11th advices thepublic that general orders bad been prepared at theAdjutant-General- 's office, to be baaed in a few days,for the immediate conscription of all persons whoever have furnished substitutes, and they will be putin a camp of instruction within ten days.

The Savannah Republican of the ICth says : Theflutter ereated here by this law is most interesting.The papers record an tntenive stampede to the Northand other parts, bj gentlemen who hare been engag-ed in trade.

The Richmond correspondent of the Columbia,(Ga.,) Sun ha it from trustworthy sources, thatone of the designs of abolishing exemptions by sub-stitutes, was to get rid of certain editors, obnoxiousto the authorities.

The Richmond Examine- - of the 12th says : Thesenate yesterday parsed the House bill, putting inthe army all who heretofore have furnished substi-tutes. 1 his will curtail the effective working foreoof the Virginia railroads, wiif.se executive force cmnow hardly keep tbem in runninz or gfnxl order, byall means at tbeir command. All the Virginia railroad iron is now worn out, and so are tbe men work-ing them.

The Richmond Enquirer of the 13th says : Theloss of our beef raising territory west of tbe Missis-sippi, has reduced the supply of this article, andmost vigorous measures are needed to keep the troopsin meat; great economy is necessary, in case our sup-plies run short.

The Richmond Sentinel sees alarming signs oftrouble in North Carolina. Speaking of the papersof that State, it says : Those located at Raleigh rare-ly fail to publish every gloomy article and intemper-ate accusation against the Government which appearanywhere. Tbeir editorials inculcate the same sen-timents as the selections, and contain frequent de-nunciations for bringing on war ; and for no causewhatever they indulge in ceaseless accusations thatNorth Carolina is not fairly treated. Coupled withthese almost daily are jeremai Js over horrors of thewar, and the gloomy future of our affairs. -

The Examiner, in a leader, says that the time haspassed for offensive military operations on the partof the Southern armies, and we are beyond the recovery or. lost territory. Ihe true policy is now torisk nothing, as oar means of subsistence are too farexhausted to admit of any other than defensive tac-tics. It has become with us simply a question of en-durance, and the duration of the war is simply aquestion of continued supplies of food for tbe people.If the army of tbe South cm hold out indefinitely ;if, at tbe eleventh hour, the people do not go madfrom the great want in food and clothing, it is thefirst duty ot the Government to provide these sup-plies, and if they cannot be supplied except by weak-ening our 8trgtb. the alternative must be adoptedof resist iuiith smaller armies, and using the tac-tics of Fa wand tbe strategy of defense.

'n 8.cabiustt f ,ne growing discontent among thefivple.kjngMi Caroliua, and their desire to bold aState Conveution, the Wilmington Journal says:We say most sincerely that plans, evidently concerted, and movements are ominous of graver conse-quence than tbe advance of the enemy.

The Raleigh Standard in its appeals to the slave-holders for peace, says : We went to war to protectState Sovereignty and defend and perpetuate the in-stitution of slavery, but if it should appear .that wehave killed both, as rational beings, we should pauseand consider the direction we are taking. If the warcontinues twelve months longer with no great successto our arms, there is danger that the institution ofslavery will be hopelessly destroyed.

Gov. Van com out in a card against tbe taxa-tion cf Stale property for the Confederacy.

Tun Eba of Confederate Desehtios. The his-torian who writes up the Collapse of the Confederacywill probably speak of this as the Era of desertion?.President Lincoln's Amnesty Proclamation J

scarcely titDe to penetrate the enemy 'a lines beforedesertions began to be reported. Every day adds totheir number. Desertions from Lee, deteitions fromLongstreet, Fort Mtrgan hoisting tbe flag of tbeUnion in open revolt, desertions everywhere thatthere is an enemy with a Union force at hand todesert to. The rank and file evidently cpice that theJe3L Davis ship is sinking, and with tbe instinct forwhich even rats are famous, flee for their lives.Couple with these facrs the doleful leaders of therebel pnpers, and one cannot resist tbe convictionthat the end really approaches. Says the RichmondExaminer, The true policy now is to risk nothing.

The duration of the war is simply a ques-tion of continued supplies of food for the people.Then it groaDs over the short supply of food, andhints the possibility that at tlr.s eleventh hour thepeople 41 may go mad for their great want in foodand clothiug." When a newspaper published atRichmond under the very ncsa of the ConfederateCongress and Cabinet, intimates such terrible contin-gencies, be eure the masses are excited, and on theverge cf rising to assert their independence of dema-gogues who have nearly completed their rain.

New Yobe, January 24. The Times contains thetranslation of a letter from a Frenchman, formerlyin the rebel army, dated Richmond. 11th January.He reports the arrival there of another agent cf theEmperor, named Mirtigny, and his mysterious con-ference with Jeff Davis. It is known that he saysJeSF has promised France all the advattae cf aSouthern Confederacy, if Napoleon would recognizeand support the Southern States. All cur principalmen, he says, think that war between France audthe United States is near at hand. The writer hasno doubt heard that a plan making Gen. Lee dictator,will be adopted as tbe only means to counteract tbestrength of the North. Lee, it is expected, is willingto accept it. He and JelT are cn bad terms. Davisis very unpopular in consequence of keeping Braggso long ia command. lie has even thought sinceRragg's dismissal, cf giving him command cf theArray of Virginia, and sending Lee to Dahon, tutbad to abandon the plan on account cf the great influence brought against it. Johnston who took thecommand of Dragg's demoralized army thought cfretreating to Atlanta, but was kept at Dalton by anorder from Richmond that he might take advantageof the probable weakening cf the Northern army byfurloughs and by the excitation of the soldiers termof service. Jeff's plau is to keep tbe army on anoffensive footing, though Lee gave his opinion thatwith the miserable condition cf the army in regardto clothing and provisions, it was impossible to do so.Early's expedition was a miserable failure, more than1,' CKJ veterans returning hors de combat, havinghands and fingers frozen.

The news from Charleston, the writer says, is dis-couraging. Beauregard has expressed an opinionthat he could not hold Charleston much longer, A9

Gilmore's guns are in a position to reduce it to ashesin a few hours if he intends to do so. One of theSouth Carolina regiments doing duty there intendedto desert en masse, but were prevented by one of thesoldiers giving information. Twenty ringleaderswere shot on tbe 4th, and the rest divided up amongether regiments. The 13th Virginia regiment wasordered to Alabama, but refused to go, and were dis-

banded and used in filling up the other regiments,us the only plan to avoid mutiny.

Bread riots occurred almost daily in the Sooth.Tbe writer concludes that the days cf tha SouthernConfederacy are numbered and its backbone broken.
