England's Anpligation of Her Neutral ule, [From tho London Times, Fob. 3.) Gat 7 * * * . . « We do not allow our own little boys to distur the thoroughfares with squibs and crackers on the Fifth of ember, and why should we submil to be annoyed with the two guns of the Nashville or the ‘columbiacs"” of the Tuscarora, eager as these mighty men-of-war may be to make themselves noisy aud disagreeable in the neighborhood of Osborne? Ths rule of international law is plain enough. Every nation has the right, if she likes, of giving hospitality to the ships.of-war of either or both: the belligerent Powers, and she may suffer them, or either of them, to bring in their prizes and submit them to her admiralty courts. But every nation has also the right to exclide them aifogether, unless where such exclusion would be contrary to the general dictates of humanity. Our go- ernment has made ils choice, as we think, very wisely, and has excluded both part Ear! Russell in this State paper moasures out equal measure te ships of war and priva- teers. Heexcludes both from all British ports for all warlike purpeses. If they come into our waters exccpt in distress, they are to be warned away, and to depart im twenty-four hours. If they be in distress, they are to go as soon as they have obtained the repairs and supplios necessary to enable them to sail homewards. If any hos- tile ships or mevchantinen that might be mado their prey, are in the same harbor, they cannot follow them out until twenty-four hours’ ‘‘law”” has been allowed to the fugi- tives. All this is old law, which bas been already en- forced within the French ports with ont any public de- claration auch as this now made by our Foreign Office. The comparatively recent appliance of steam to war ships bas mado the question of coals a no- velty in our Inernasiomal Kaw of Neutrals. The ob- vious idea of supplying a siup-of-war with only coals sufficient to take ber to the nearest home port would not meet the present case, for she would spend these coals in a cruise and come back’ for more, being again in distress. Earl Russell meets this difficulty by a provision that a ship-of-war or @ privateer shall not obéain cox! within the British dominions, even to take her home, more than once in Ueree months. We hope this will put an end to the sannoyanees that eccur in Europe from these transatiantic quarrels. It would appear that war steamers which must leave our ports in twenty-four hours, and ean only come.and coal once in three menths, cannot be so troublesome. The fight in the New World may bo res, and terrific, and sublime. It may be the real battle of Armageddon for aught we know. It may be like the shock of hostile earthquakes. We ere constantly being told how terrible it is to be when General McCielian gets well and his army is ready. We are con- tent to believe or disbelieve it; but, as it comes tous in the Old World, it is like @ war of frogs and mice, and is simply a small nuisance. Our friends over the water ovght to remember that we nave not the same reasons which they have for enduring such disturbances. The revelations made by Mr. Dawes in Congress apply to America, and not to England. It is pretty clear now that the war of the fedoral States. is kept up by a ficti- tious public enthusiasm, founded upon the squandering among a smail class of political contractors and agitators of two millions of dollarsaday. We have great faith in the purity and disinterestedness of the inhabitants of Southampton aad Portsmouth, and we are quite sure that they will urge the government to execute the regulations they have put forth. We hope, therefore, that, after this notification, we may see no more of these ferocious Penny steamers in our tranquil waters.

THE INVASION OF MEXICO. REPORTED ACCEPTANCE OF THE THRONE BY AUSTRIA. The London Post renews the report that the Arch-Duke Maximilian will accept the throne of Mexico. Vianna, Feb. 4, 1862. Austria will accept tha throne of Mexico for the Arch: Duke Marimitian, but will not cede Venetia in exchange. The London Herald's Paris correspondent says, under date of February 4, that in addition to the troops already sent off fonr more batteries of artillery hi seived or- ders to hold theraselves ia readiness to start at an hour's notice. [From the Paris Patrie, Feb. 4.) The allied troops are to advance on the City will be no nominal coumander- in. chief. The military commanders and the admirals will act according to the decisions of a council of war, as in the expedition to China. The London Glote, of the 4th inst., remarks that while Great Britain will adhere tothe more limited constita- tion in the Mexican Convention, she would, of course, be glad to see a sownd, orderly and. vigorous gmernment es tablished in that country so blessed by nature and so cursed by man. (From the London Observer, Feb. 3.) There is reason to believe that an attempt will shortly be made to connect England and America once more by the electric telegraph, and this time with greater in- creased prospect of permanent success. Recent occur- rences have impressed the eromente of England and of the United States with the enormous importance of such means of communication, and the President and government of the United States have desided on giving pays a mgd Se Faeteh Ja considered pro- ‘The government of the United States Sor in a liberal manner, offered to subseribe one-half of the sum which would be’ required for making the cable, and give the use of vessels of their navy in assisting to lay it, provided the Britich government will graptite remaining portion of the sum.

OFPHCIAL NEWS ¥ROM VERA ORUZ TO PARTS, ‘The Paris Moniteur of Fobruary 1 publishes a letter from Vera Cruz, stating that the oxcitoment of the Mexi- cans was beginning to subside.

The Other vessy ls were to follow as 000 as possible. A letter from Toulon «f the 29th of January contains the following account of iho operations going forward in that port:—The second act Of the Moxigan Semsdcion was donclided to-day ia the port of Toulon by tho de parture of the steam frigates Asmodeo and Cana‘la, which took with them the first battalion of rittomen and theengineers. I tay the second act, because all the ac- counts received from ! aris seem to contirm the perma- ent occupation.of Mexico by the allied forcos until a regular and firmly established government shall have completely removed ail traces of the civil war which is laying waste that unfortnnate country. We must therefore expect to see frequent expeditions of troops = er ‘stores to suppiy the army of occupation and ¢ fleet. {From the Courrior du Demanche, Fob.\1.) ‘The idea of creating @ royal throne in favor of the pone ap Maximilian is Lf dine recent date than may be generaily supposed. Kren before making preparations for the Mexican enpedition, the Cabinet of the Tuileries sounded the intenions Z the Court of Vienna as to the eventual re- ception which theoffer of the throne of Mexico to an Austrian prince might be likely to meet with. ‘The Cabinet of Vienna did not show itself very eager to close with the offer, although sree care was taken at first to say nothing about equivalents. It 1s only within the last fow weeks that it has been shadowed forth im a very delicate man- ner. The idea of # connexity between the transoceanic extension of the Austrian power and the excision of some of its possessions in Europe. It will be readily understood ‘that this confirmation of suspicions previously entertain- ed was ill calculated to remove the objections at Vienna, the made to the Archduke Maximiliéa con- tinued to be looked upon very coldly. The idea then arose of finding some further compensation for Austria in Europe. It was believed on good grounds that Turkey would not be altoge:her intractable if a good pecuniary indemnity and other advantages were offered against the cession of Herzegovine, a8 measure conducive to the of Europe. There was certainly a chanee at one time that this combination would have had @ chance of success at Vienna. But the latest news loads to the sup- position that great diflicuities are in the way. The Cabinet of S'. Petersburg, which so seriously took to heart the tittle affair of Suttorina, would never consent to suck important territorial changes on the Lower Danube; and it appear that Paris and Vienna have made up their minds to 90 against Russia. We may add as latest news that, ac- cording to a despatch just received from. Vienna, the Archduke Maximilian’s privy councillor, M. Scherzen- lechner, has just started for Mexico. The Opinion Nationale, which is very much against the whole scheme, mentions @ report that not only Archduke Maximilian’s Becretary, Dat the archduke himself, is about to proceed to Mexico, The O’Shea Bank Failures in Madrid. {From the London Times (city article) Feb. 3.} The advices from Madrid confirm the impression that the failure of Messrs. O'Shea, the bankers, will turn out very unfavorably. The house does not Sppear to have enjoyed much credit among the leading commercial classes, their clients being chiefly peivane individuals, including many Englishmen, persons engaged in public works, &c., a large number of whom will be entirely ruined. It’is alleged that tho case presents features similar to those in the London house of Sir John & Co., a8 the partners are accused of fraudulently disposing of securities intrusted to their care. The proximate cause of the failure appears to have been tho extravagant expenditure of Senor Jbarrola, one of the directors, who is stated to have made his escape. The other partners are out en bail. A meeting of creditors is called for the 12th inst., when it is expected that crimi- nal proceedings pnd Be ordered to be instituted. It is also reported that the bank has been insolvent since 1847, in which case tho property left by the late Mr. O’Shea, at whose death a year ago a considerable amount of capital was withdrawn from the concern, will become subject to the claims of the general creditors. Mr. U'Shea, it is new said, had failed on two previous occasions. Commercial Intelligence. LONDON MONEY MARKET.

Corrigan was tried first. John Murray, a soldier of thefusileer Guard, deposed that he knew the prisover (Corrigan), and continued:— I saw him at his house in Carleton on Wednesday night last: it was before eight o'clock: Thomas Frazer, also a soldier, was with me; we staid there three or four’ hours; wo asked to light our pipes; westalked abont soldiers making their escape to the United States: he said he could take us to Fastport in six or seven hours; he sald it would be better for us to join the American arm that we would get better paid—get about a month, and would not have to fight, but to drill the soldiers, and when we arrived at Eastport he would take us to a boarding house and make ar ts for us,and if the wind would change we could go that night; T'cocmenced telling them tales about the(rimean war; we left and came over in the amail boat about ten o'clock; we went down some rocks to get to the house; Fo} son directed us how to find his father’s house, Bext night I went to Corri- Suvsand tun senenioentbone: one pair of socks ana She Seen I bad them concealed Frazer waa with me; I examination in chief of bo, 414 not elicit any had no intention to , both rigan were sen- @ ‘fine of $100, in accordance with tl British statute to that otfect.

The leading items are, as usual, corny wheat, flour and provisions, shipment of cotton to Liverpool, and 4 rather heavy shipment of tobacco to Gibraltar. If we once begin to open the ports ia the Southern States, we shall soon have plenty of Southern produce to send abroad. Military successes on our side will soon develope a Union sentiment among the rebels. The money market is fairly easy at 6 per cent- The demand from the brokers is more lively than jt was some time since, but they get all they want at 6 per cent, and sometimes at 5. Business paper is very scarce; very choice names pass at6 a6 & 6% per cent; ordinary good business paper goes at 7 and upwards. Seven-thirty Treasury notes are active at 99 a ya 4. Exchange fell off to-day; the leading drawers reduced their rate to 114% for sterling and 4.92% a 93% for francs; but the bills of these same houses: were sold in second hands at 114% and 4.95, and at the close the best bid was 114 and 4.9734. The report in a Philadelphia paper that Savannah had really fallen had a tendency to depress the market. If Savannah falls there will certainly be a supply of cotton bills in this" market before thirty days elapse. Gold was rather better to-day. At the first board there were sales on time at 103%, and 1035% was bid afterwards; later in the day it sold at 10334. If Congress will mature the Tax bill gold will soon fall to or near par. It is maintained at 4 premium simply through the efforts of specu- lators, aided by some of our banks and bankers. The speculators on the Stock Exchange attempt- ed to realize profits to-day, and the market gave way in consequence. At the first board prices were pretty well maintained on State stocks; but the leading speculative shares, New York Central, Erie, Erie preferred, Pacific Mail, Toledo and Rock Island were all 4 8% lower. The prospect of the opening of the Mississippi at no very distant date operates injuriously on the price of the stocks of the roads traversing Illinois from west to east, as such an event would divert from them a part of their present traffic. It benefits Illinois Central from the same reason, and that stock has already risen 6 per cent since the recent decline. Toledo is hurt by the news that the recent arrangement with connecting lines is not likely tobe carried out. At midday the rumor that Savannah had fallen imparted fresh courage to the bulls; but soon afterward doubts thrown upon the authen- ticity of the story led to a reaction, which was further assisted by, despatches from Washington intimating that it was doubtful whether the re- cent successes would not obviate the necessity of passing the Treasury Note bill.

The Sub-Committeeof Ways and Means, of which Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, is chairman, are inflicting a fatal injury on the best interests of the country by postponing their report.
