cf the Obsorvatory at Napler, cays thas Mount | Veravias has nearly ewbpided into tts usual stato. A quantity of earsonic acid, how- @¥er, Atill evolved from the crevices near Torre del Greece, induces the belief that these open- ings communicate with a vast subterranean re~ ceptacte tar under tle sea, where numerous bubbles are reen to ariee, and thus accounts for the death of a number cf fiehes which have been found floating on the water. It is now as- certained that the apparent receding of the sea on the Neapolitan coast, so often noticed by au- thors, ic in reslity caused by the coposits on the soil from theruccessive eruptions of Mount Vesuvius, and that it is not the sea that recedes but the soil that rises. A subsequent dispatch from Naples, dated Dee, 2ib. says that eight shocks of earthquake bad born felt within two days, and Vesuvi again emits columns of ashes, which aro eserisd Ly the wind ae far as Naples THE NEW YORK SUN. FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 10, 1562. ‘The Move at Last. Our readers will be stirred with no ordinary emotions by the intelligence of today, Part of the Bonsrnn expedition left Annapolis fir Tiampton Roads yerteréay, and the remain- dor immediately follows. A ciepatch from Cairo states that seventy-five thousand troops will, witt in six days, leave that section of the countre to unite with Gen. Borit’s forces in Kentucky, and thence proce! to Now Or loans. Even’s of overwhelming importance will now be compremrod within a few short weeks of time, fad the rebellion must be broken up before epring opent, or reverses will have boon mot compared to which the affairs of Manawas and Ball's Bluff were but as drops before a sho wor, or simple torerunnors of disaster.

Mr. Some may be precumed to pay what Mr. Sawanp would have said, if he had cot boon the official representative of the American Na- tion, and as nueh bound to act with « certain reserve towards other countries, Wo havo al- mitted enongh to England, but have wisely Kept our most important admissions for our ow? household, The proofs presented by Mr. Srm- wma should forever silence Congrossional com- plaints upon ths surrender of the Rebel Com- missioners, and doubtless will, Mr. Sumare opens with a recapitulation of the grounds taken by Mr Sew snp that the Awerican Governmert has always protested against the unlawful removal of persons frov vessols at sea, on the ground that this action constitutes the naval officer, who doos + judge of the case, and withholds that aljudica ‘tion which certainly belongs to a Pr.z0 Court. ~ ‘This argument is enforced by extracts from the papers filed in the State Department, oxten: ing beck to tho administration of Washing'on, sbich, on the 11th Juno, 1792 first addressed dispatches to our Minister in London upon thir wubjeot, in reply to the British assertion of ihe right of aarch, which was then becoming pro neatly offensive. But tho British erui~ ors, noverthelers, continued to — board our veemls and take men out of — them ‘at their option, during the remaiador of Wael « ington’s term of office; during the administration of Mr. Jefferson, and, indeed, down to that of Mr. Madison, when, failing to obtain any rodress, the war of 1812 relieved us of thore vexatious pretensions of the British Govern. ment, whieh have never cince been renewed. During vil this period, every state paper and Temonstrance made by the United State Govern- meat to other nations, ably covered the whol ground, ard denied to any uation the right to board and remove from any neutral vessel per soos or property, and denied the right of her ‘eaptere, unless clearly engaged in conveying contraband property. The proofs go further. They conclusively show that the United States have, in treaties with other nations, and in state papors issued abroud, deliberately qualified what should be considered contraband of war, within the un- deretanding of their own government, anc plainly agreod that no Ambassadors wero to be considered as such, nor any pereons pave those {m the actual military service of the enemy. Iu the treaty of commerce with France, in 1778, it is expressly provided that ' Enemios to both or either party are not to be taken our of ebips of a noutral power, unless they are soldiers ia the actual service of the enemies.” ‘The samo provision was made in the treaty with Sweden, in 1782, with Prussia in 1745, wich Spain in 1795, with France in 1800, with Columbia in 1824, with Central America in 1825, with Brazil in 1824, with Moxico in 1831, with Chili in 1882, with Venezuela iv 1886, with Bolivia in 1886, with Ecuador in 1839, with New Granada in 1816, with Ga- atemala in 1849, with San Salvador in 1450 and in tho treaty with Peru in 1851, Thue cleuly was our government committe! to the ackuowledgment that ambassadors are not to be considered contraband of war, Aod otill another poiat is sottlod against us by the past policy and admissions of our ow Government, The Trent unquestionably car- riod dispatches, and these baye been look» upon as contraband, beyond perady According to our laws und treaties they are not 60. As early as , in the treaty with Spain, after specifying contraband article, without including dispatches, it is declared th t “Free goods are all other merchandise ad ¢hinge which are not comprehonded and pariicu. larly montioned in the foregoing enumeration of contraband goods.” In other troaties the following provision is introduced; ‘All other merebaridiee and things not comprehended in the articles of contraband explicitly enume rated and classified as above, shall be held an! corsidered as free.” Thus we have not only poritive words of enumeration, without men- tioning ‘ dispatches " but also positive words ot exclusion, 60 that dispat hes cannot be co» oitored as contraband. Clearly, then, aud be svnd all quertion, according to Ame: ican prin <ijles and p actice, the ship was not liable t capture on account of dispatches on board, In view of all the foregoing, wo must concluds as follow let, We bad no right to take Suioent. and Mason out of a neutral vessel, 2ad, We would have had no right to # pture the Trent ata prize, since an examination by Commotore Witkes would have resulted in proof that tho vessel did nct carry articles con traband of war. 81d, The Ambassadors were not contraban' within the meaning of our laws, 4th, Tho dispatches on board were not con- traband within the same meaning. Iu this surrender, if such it may be called, ou Government does not oven “stoop to conquer.’ It simply lifts \wself to the height of its original principlos. Too early efforts of its boat negotia- tore—the patriot trials of its soldiers in an un equal war—tave at length prevailed, ant G Britain, usually so haugh'y, lovites us to pra tice upon those principles which she has as stren wously opposed.

Great service is also rendered by the sigual corps attached to General Siicnman's divirion, in the prompt tracsmission of orders and com. munications over all parts of the extended field of operations, along the coast between Churles- ton and Savannah, through the means of a se ries of signal stations established in the tops of trees and on clewated buildings. ‘The system of signal ing in use ix that re- contly introduced into cur army by Lieut. My- ers, which is receiving at Port Royal, the most thorough teet it has yet had. The signals are made by tiage, of three different colors, to dis- tinguish the nature of the communic:tion, whether official or otherwise, @no of thse flags is waved to tho right, to the left, or straight forward, sp:lling out sentonces with wonderful rapidity by some system of hiero- tlypbic short-hand known only to the initiated, who, in regard to th’s matter, form a secrot s0- ciety by themselves, Each signal officer car- ries a sot of excellent glasses, by which he can dietinguish the signals ata distances of several miles when the weather is clear, There is also a similar system of signalling by rockets, fir use at night, of which the rebels would seem to have some imitation, asyon the occupation of Hilton Head, the eyes of our sige raloflicers were made glad by the di covey of a large quantity of their favorite rockets and colored lights, left behint by the retreating rebels, and of which they stood mach in need Those night signals do not appear, however, to he ws relia!le as thore mado with the flags, When the steamer Bultic ran ashove at Cape Hatteras, on its way with the Port Royal exps- ‘ition, the first man sent for as goon as the vos tel wes afleat again, was the signal officer, to whom the captain exclaimed: “Now, tir, you have an opportunity of toate »g your signals, If they are worth anythiog, they may be the means of raving half of fleet. “Signal the other vessels to look out for breskers.”” After considerable hesitation the signal off- cer confossd that, being a military man, he had no signal for so nautical a message, but propos ed todo the beet he could by signalling, “We are attacked,” following it immediately with; “The enemy are repulsed.” But this novdl mode of indicating the presence of breakers did not suit the views of Gen, Waicir, who forbade it, and resort was had to the ordinary burning of rockets and blue-lchts; to the secret rutisfaction of the jack-tars,who had a projudice against those “signal follers” with their now fongled notions coming in te nt. setablished codes with whieh miliar, ° ths long were fa Another Demand, Now that England bas made ber demand, and gut it, the United ehould make thoirs, Until the British Government openly declares for the support of the South, it ought 0 be held rigidly to the neutrality which it professes, England's sympathies wich the rebels have been so plainly manifested, that avery two-and-sixpenny port which it keeps going, wpon the Atlantic, is governed upon the principle that any violation of the Queen's pro- clamation cf neutrality, in acconlance with those sy mpathier, will be passed over with Im punity, One of the most pestilont of thess ports is that of Nassau, N. P., a few hours’ sail from the south coast of Mlrida, which forms con- venient head quarters for rebel vessels to stop at, refit, and to watch their chances for run- ning the blockade, The authorities there s notoriously sympathize with the rebel cause that supplies, which are froaly furnished to their vessels, are denied to ours, Ta this way, the rebel steamer “Ella Warley,” formerly the Isabel, lately got into Charleston, Tho U. 3. steamer Flambeau, which was watching her outside the harbor of Nassau, was obliged wo Jaye the port to procure coal which the Nassau uthorities would not permit the vessel to ob- tain, and, during the absence of the Flambeau, A Ella Warley eecaped, The Eruption in Italy, ‘Tits ( dlicial report of M, Patani, Director Annan!
