2 Mk. BEECHER’S FAREWELL TO ENGLAND. m the London Times, Oct. $1.) Yesterday moruing the Rev. H Ward Beecher was en- tertained ut public breakfast in Liverpool by the men bors o the Emancipation Society, prior to bis embar! tion this day (or the United States.

But though he had spoken the words of truth he had done so in soberness—si-cuking the words of truth and pence first, ‘and of peace and love next. He had not said everything | hho know, but he should have been foolish if he bad left | untouched the things of peace and dug up those of offéneo. When among his own countrymen he would earnestly do, his boat to ‘epresent to his Country mon the cause of the allegod autagouisn of Great Britain to the North in their | reat couilic: with slayery, In theMirst place he might venture to say that for a long period the voices of thse | who speak us the nation in Engiand were at times like those of old, posseased by the Devil—(laughter)—and no’ under their own control.

He would not say that this was altogether worrect; but England then bogan seriously to con sider what effect the war would have upon her Own internal organization. There were many who feared tho reaction of American ideas upon the masses of tho English peopl Then, again, there was great ignorance and misrepresencation. England was cleverly acted upon by unscrupulous and wouder- fully active exertions of Southern emissaries, who com- goa and land to make proselytes, and mad: the intand careless evn tn times more the children of the devil than they were previously. Then, again, there was the constant suppression and distortion of the truth, which made easy converts of many who did aot venture to sift the mass of false {acts placed before them. The fooling of commercial rivalry also entored largely into tho matters which influenced the people of this country. Jhow, in his opinion, commercial competition was ana tional bies#ing; but be thought that Old England, even in trade, noed never fear ber eldest son, and he hoped that all jarring jealousies on that score would s00n cease, and that all either country would ask for would be a fair field. As for men who fostered raucorous rivalries from trade fears, out upon them, and let them be ever Febuked on both sides of the Atlantic He knew that in good time commerce would increase so rapidly as to task all tho energies of both Great Britain and America, aud reaurrectiouize uations by car- rying to thom the blessings of liberty and civilization. ‘There waa another cause to account for the doubt and bosttation with which Fugland regarded the North. Many fancied that the political ideas of America would react upon kngtand and produce discontent with the national institutions and form of government. Now, tho institu: tions of Kngland were 80 conservative, abd go many blessings were enjoyed under the government of a mon- archy supported by # powerful aristocracy, that nochange on this score need be feared until it received such a thorough seasoning controversy and living fight as would approve it to the whole people as worthy of being adopted Many politicians algo feared that the cheap government of America and the vote by ballot might ‘arouse tho imitative political sympathies of the English | Peopio, Now, lity years hence, if atter due dvlibera. tion and discussion” the English people. should have | , and they would drop. into the bailot Hakes of paper whieh, like takes of sno yet soou mace the avalani obstac'es before ity bat ». ned in her political the same opomion that government is solely for the ben fit of the (Cheors.)

After due consideration and reflection his visit to England had convinced him that the tide was at lest turning. England admired and loyed success, and they ouly wanted one or two conclusive federal victories 4 turn ber sympathies once more round to the North.

(Immense laughter.) Speaking of the war, Mr. Beccher said that, while be rogrotted such a dread ‘necessity, its prolouga- tion is not an unmixed evil. It was educating the North, ' and making @ resurrection of its manhovd, who under the influence of Southern blandishmout were becoining emagoulated. Once men scarcely ventured to speak of slavery in its true colors, aud everything wag sacrificed for the Union. But his cry sipce 1850 had bee; “The Union with liberty—the Union with slavery is Ho—if for liberty, the Union is good; but if for slavery, 1 is thrice sccursed.”’ rs.) The war had evoked a rare spirit of devotion and patriotism, and he said, “lot the war go on, until it has burnt out slavery to the very root’ Slavery had attempted to tasso bis countrymen, but the war had put them on their foot, and they were men again, ever sincd the arm, aa it woro, of Omnipotence, bad dragged them back from iohaling the sorcorer’s breath. Wheat, farms, ships, bouses and every material element of wealth, if once de- Stroyed, could be recreated, but a man, a corrupt citizen, ig ever poor, and in the graves of the young herocs who had diod for their country, and mado so many houses be knew desolate aud full of mourning, dwelt a moral power which would for ages bless their country, so long as it should reverence self-devotion, love of country and love of God. As to the future of England and America, he hoped arid believed that it would indeed bea lasting ond cordial union between the two peoples. It had boen said that ho bad tried too much of the ‘soothing syrup” with the British lion, and if that were an offence he must plead guilty to the charge of trying to iufluence him on the SiJe of good nature.

[Warsaw (Oct. 13) correspondence of the London Times.) lwrote in a recent leffer of the new regulations in Warsaw as to visiti and receiving visits. In practice the rule on the s ig that evory outer door (porte cochere) is kept sbi for admittance, asks where you are going, but not what your name {s, nor your business, nor how long you are Boing to stay. "The police regulation forbidding persons to remain more than ten minutes in cafes and pastry cooks’ sheps ig not enforced, and does not prevent the newsmongers of Warsaw from keeping tho samo journal in band for half an bour. ‘At the theatre, attended only by Russian officers and a few ladies in deep mourning, and the roverse of sad, the noisy jittle Piece which has \yzzed all over Kurope under the title of “Orpheus in tho fufernal Rogions,”’ is played. The Poles call it ‘Orpheus in Warsaw,’’ and not even the Jews (or of the old covenant,’’ or of the Mosaic confession,” as they are called hore) go to see it. ‘The classical personage, however, of whom one is wards evening, is Diogenes. All Poles who are out®at or a'ter dusk have to carry lanterns, though they do not, it | 18 true, waste their time in looking among tho unillumi- nated class for honest men. At night the city seems in- | habited by a whole population of Guy Fawkeses. Every person you meet bas the air of a conspirator, and proba- bly there are few of these Polish lantern bearers who, if they found themseives with a few barrels of gunpowder beneath the Russian military club which performs just now the functions of a Parliament in Warsaw, would hesi- tate much about blowing it up. The convents occupied two or three weeks since by the troops are still in thehands of themilitary. The build- ings have not been turned into barracks, but a guard is stationed in each, and in each @ strict search has been instituted.

Prince tantine La ki was formerly a general in the Russian army, which he quitted in 1830, when’ the Polish insurrec- tion of that broke out. He is now nearly eighty oars of age, amd {tis said that he was taken from his use in the of the night, not because there was any accusation against him, but because the Commission of Inquiry att to the prison of the citadel wanted to ask him some questions on the following day, and, accord. ing to the amiable custom of the piace, sent to seize him when it was most ene that be would be found at home. ‘The burning of the Warsaw Town Hall was not the re- sult of accident, In besser ig arkved may have been tho motive of this deliberate act Of iucendiarism, I can only think that it may bave been meant as a protest against the imposition of the new tax—if not with the more di- rect motive of burning the lists of taxpayers. It was at the Town Hall that the oight per cent income tax was to ‘be paid, and } mentioned in a previous letter that from thore who do not pay beiore the end of the month twelve per cent will be required. Some twenty persons who bad already settled with the governmeut on this score, were publicly warned last week in @ “proclamation” issued by the “Chief of the Town.” Their names were published and they themselves summoned to a) before one of the “revoluttonnry tribunales.”” Tt Is on this question of ‘the eight per cent income tax for war purposes that the great contest is now taking place between the natioual | government and the government of Russia, As | was leaving the neghborhood of the Town Hall 1 noticed a gentleman, weating the “cylinder” hat of re- | pectability, engaged in ap animated dizenssion with a Cossuek, who wore the Circassian cap of the Koubsn. «1 was brought here by one of your own officers,” said the proprietor of the cylinder bat. “Then,” replied the Cossack, ‘it was his duty to take you to the house you were going to, pat you inside and @but the door after you. Our orders are not to allow civil people to walk about here"? “But,” parsued the cylinder wearer, ‘I have a big hat; you onght not to mind ine," “There are vory big hase worn by very big function aries,’ continued the disciplinarian of the Kouban; ‘but 1 should thom as civil persons just the came if J now.’ caught them h “Weil, what ye going to do with me” inquired the tleman finally, to w neither the cylinder hat ‘nor the recent companionship of a Russian officer was any guarantee of safety. «Why. shail flog yon, that’s all,” said the stern but ‘not precisely savege Cossack, when suddeuly inter. ventton of # secoud cylindar hat, to whom I have reason to believe the hero of the Koubab was under some slight uniary Obligations, brought the discussion to a satis- ctory conclusion. ‘One feels almost ashamed at Anding amusement in any- ‘Ubing that takes place at Warsaw during the preecnt de.

THE WARS IN CHINA AND JAPAN. The War in Ja: DEFEAT AND FLIGHT OF THE BKITISH PLEET. [From the Dublin Nation, Oct. 31.) It is really a joke; but it is true, The guns of a Japanese town have beaten off a British fleet of seven ‘war vessels, and forced them to save themselves by a disgraceful ‘light. We propose at once an address of condolence from the loyal corperators of Dublin, to whom a British fleet is not as the fleet of any other nation, and from the Banquet Committeo, who are just in the mood for weeping, seoing ful deficit in their fuuds ig not likely to be mace good to them.

But in the story everything is got to work at last, whi'e in this Japanese business there is inovitably a dead lock, owing, a8 we are told, to the fact that that Satsuma, of Mayosima. is quite as powerful as the Ty- ccon of Jeddo, #0 that it is wain to expect the latter ‘to exert bis authority to induce atsuma to comply with our demands,”’ more particularly as Satsuma bas the Mikado to back him up and the Tycoon has not.
