well-disposed man, possessed of an independent fortune, and married to à young lady of good family, of agreeable person and manners, and who for the first seven or eight years of theis marriage, made him an excellent wife.\u201cWithout any previous dispute or difference he rose one morning very early, and told her that he was obliged to go to the Tower to transact Some particular business; and the same day about noon, che received a note from him, infofming her that he was under a necessity of going instamly to Holland, and : should probably be absent three weeks or a month.He romaine ben however, longer than the specified time, and for seventeen years and upward shd never heard of or from him.About three yedrs after his disappearance, Mrs, Howe wasiobliged to apply for an Act of Parliament tolprocure a proper settlement * of her husband's estate, and a proper provision for herself and two children out of it, ns it was uncertuit whether he was alive or dead.This the did, as when he first went away she and her friends feared that he might have contruoted some large debt unknown to her, the difficulties of which he could not easily surmount, In fact, for some time after his departure, she had livedin constant dread of demands from creditors of seizures, executions, &o.Nothing of this kind, however took place; and ou investigation it was found that he notjonly had left his estute free und amoumbded, but had punctually paid the bills of every tradesman with whom he had nny dealings, to thë#ftmonÉ exactness, receipts and proper vouchérs for all + bills being

value of British connection as they did a yard of cotton ; but the recent generous subscription of £5,000 sent from this city showed these men that the tics which bound Canaila to England were ties of

of the 26th lust.rays the presumption is that in a very few days we will have a battle in this vicinity that will eclipse ull others of this war in regard to ferocity and ficreeness.There is not the slightest doubt but that the enemy are in great force on the other side of the river, cqual if not superior to our own.[have reason to believe that Gen, Lee is in command in person of the whole ns 000 men.Their camp fires can be seen extending at least 10 miles along the river and from oliservation & miles back into the country.\"The enemy as usual have picked out an almost impregnable position, and have been fur à few days past working like beavers in throwing up fortifications.Their present position is on the brow or range of high hills, some distance back of the river, with lieavy woed in tiwir rear, and very probably, some of their works have been erected in the timber.lt is my opinion that back of the present hills, where their works are now erceted, there is another range which they will occupy if driven from their strong position.NEW Yong, Nov.28,\u20141he Zimes' Washington dispatch says the current talk to-day in military circles here is in regard to the expedicney of the Army of the Potomac gu- ing into winter quarters.Late events seem to have strengthened the probability of such a policy being adoped, and inferences to the same effect are drawn from the President's visit to Aquia Creek.Reports received from the front to-day locate Jackson's advance at Bealstown, on the Orange and Alexandria ltailroad, near the Rapjahannock, in a pusition to endeavor to hotd Gen, Sigel's force from advancing, or to {all upon the rear of Gen, Burnside\u2019 army.Other reports scatter bis force along the eastern base of the Blue Ridge, from the Mappuhannoek to Snicker's Gap, placing the bulk in advance, and Jeaving scouting parties in the rear to observe and harass our Lines.The Herald's special dispatch from Aquia Creek 27th, says the wite and two daughters of Dy.Gillespie, a surgeon in the United States army, who remained at Fredericks.burg when it was evacuated by Gen.Burnside Jast summer, were sent across the river yesterday by a flag of truce and proceeded to Washington.They state that the whole of Lee's army is certainly concentrating in the vicinity of Fredericksburg, and are determined to dispute the passage of the river by our army

French Minister of Foreign Affairs, addressed to the Ambas- sidors of France ut London and St.Peters- burg: Panis, Oct.30, Europe watches with painful interest the struggle which has been raging more than a year upon the American continent, The hostilities have provoked sacrifices and efforts certainly of a nature to inspire the highest idea of the perseverance and energy of the two populations; but this spectacle, which does so much honor to their courage, in oniv given at the price of numberless cu lamities and a prodigious effusion of blood.To these results of n civil war, which from the very first assumed vast proportions, there is still to be aaded the apprehension of a servile war, which would he the culminating point, if so.Many irreparable disasters, the sufferings of a nation towurd which we have always professed a sivcere friendship, woul) huve sufficed to excite the sincere solicitude of the Emperor, even had we TUN nme agi Notwithstanding the late bad condition of ; rebel army, esceeding without doubt 125; SEY d= | ourselves not suffered by a counter blow.\u2014 From these events, under the influence of the intimate relations which an extensive intercourse has multiplied between various regions of the globe, Europe itself has suffered fiom the consequences of a crisis which has dried up one of the most fruitful sources of public wealth, and which became for great centres of Jnbor the cause of most sad trinis.As you are aware, when the conflict commenced we held it to be our duty to observe the most strict neutrality in concert with the other maritime powers, and the Washington \" Cabinet repeatedly acknowledged the honorable manner in which we adhered to that line of conduct.\u2018The sentiments dictuted to us have undergone no change but that of a be- uevolent character, Diet neutrality instead of imposing upon the powers an attitude which might resemble indifference, ought rather to make them of service to Lhe parties Ly helping them out of v position which seems to have no issue.From the commencement of the war an armed force was set on foot by the belligerents, which since then has almost constantly been kept up.\u2014 After so much bloodshed they are now in that respect in nearly the same position, and nothing authorizes the presumpiion that more decisive military operations will short- lyoceur.According to the last news received from America, the two armies, on the contrary, were in a condition that would not allow either party to hope within a brief delay for any decided advantage to turn the balance and accelerate the conclusion of a peace.All these circumstances taken together point to the opportunity of an armistice, to which moreover, under present circumstances, no strategical objection can be made.\u2014 The favorable dispositions toward pence which are beginning to manifest themselves in the North as well as the South, might, on the other hand, show that steps might be made to recommend tie 1dea of a truce.The Emperor has therefore, thought that the occasion has presented itself for offering to the maritime powers, and his Majesty has charged me to make a proposition to the government of ler Britannic Majesty as well us to the Court of Russi, that the three Cabinets exert their influence at Washington, as well as with the Confederates, to obtain an armistice for six months, during \"which all overt acts of war, direct or indirect should provisionally cease on sea as well as on land, and might be if necessary ultimately prolonged.These overtures, I need not say sir, would not imply [reflection] on our part va the origin or issue of the struggle, nor any pressure upon the negatiutions which might it is to be hoped, ensue in favor of an armistice.Our task would comist solely in smoothing down obstacles and in interfering only in the measure determined upon by the two parties We should not in fact, believe ourselves called upon to decide but to prepare a solution of the difficuliies which have hitherto opposed reconciliation between the belligerent parties.Would not moreover, an agreement between the three courts respond suflicient!y to their intentions?Would it not give tu thrir step the character of evident impartiality # Acting in concert they would combine the conditions best suited to inspire confidence\u2014the grvernment of the Emperor, by the constant tradition of French policy toward the United States; England by the community of race and Russia by the marks of friendship she has never cased to show to the Washington Cabinet.Should the event not justify the hope of the three powers and should the ardor of the struggle overrule the wisdom of theh counsels, this attempt would not be less honorable for them; they would bave fuifiiled a duty of humanity, more especially indicated in a war which exeited passions render all attempts at negotiations wore difficult.It is the mission which international law assigns neutrals at the same time that it prescribes to them a strict impartiality, and they could never make a nobler use of their influence than in endeavoring to put an end to a struggle which causes so much suffering and compromises such great interests throughout the whole world.Finaily, even without immediate results, these overtures would not be entirely useless for they might encourage publie opinion to views of conciliation, and thus contribute to hasten the moment, when the return of peace might become possible.1 request you sir, in the name of His Majesty, to submit these considerations to Lord tussell or to Prince Gortschakoff, begging him to state the views of the Government of Her Britannic Majesty or the Court of Russia.(Signed) DROUYN DE I'HUYS.The following dispateh is addressed by Earl Russell to Xarl Cowley, Her Majesty's Ambassador at Paris: Forrioy Orrice, Nov.13.My Lord\u2014The Count De Flahault came to the Foreign Office by appointment on Monday the 10th instint, and read tome a lating to the civil war in North America.\u2014 In this dispatch the Minister for l'orcign ! Affairs states that the Emperor has followed with painful interest the struggle which hag now been going on for more than a year on the American continent, le does justice to the energy und perseverance which have been displayed on both sides, but he observes that those proofs of their courage have been given at the expense of innumerable calamities and immense bloodshed.i To these accompaniments of a civil con- { fliet is to be added apprehensions of a servile war, which would be the climax of so ; many irreparable misfortunes.1f these ea- ! lamities affected America only, these suffer !ings of à friend!y nution would Le enough to \"excite the anxiety and sympathy of the Em- j peror ; but Jurope also Las suffered in one of the principal branches of her industry, i and her artisans have been subjected to most cruel trials.France and the maritime pow- i ers hove during the struggle maintained the strictest neutrality, but the sentiments by which they are animated, for from imposing dispatch from M, Drouyn De L'Huys re-.on them anything like indifference, seem on the contrary, to require that they should as sist the two belligerent parties in an endeavor to escape from a position which appears to have no issue, The forces of the two sides have hitherto fought with balanced success, and the latest accounts do not show any prospects of a speedy termination of the war.These ecir- cum-tances taken together, would seem to favor the adoption of measures which might bring about a truce, The Emperor of the French, therefore is of opinion that there is now an opportunity of offering to the belligerents the good offices of the maritime powers.He therefore proposes to Her Majesty as well as the Emperor of lRussin that the three Courts should endeavor, hoth at Washingtion and in communication with the Confederate States, to bring about à suspension cf arms for six months, during which every uct of hostility, direet or indirect, should cease at sea as well as on land, \"This armistice might if necessary, be renewed for a further period.This proposal, M.Drouyn De L'Hnys proceeds to say, would not imply on the part of the throe prowers any judgment on the origin of the war or any pressure on the nego- tations for peace, which it is hoped, would take lace during the armistice, \u2018The three powers would only interfere to smooth obstacles, and only within the limits which the two interested parties would prescribe.The French Government is of opinion that even in the event of failure these overtures might be useful in turning the minds of men now heated with passion to consider the advantages of conciliation and peace, Such is in substance the proposal of the Lmperor of the French, and I need bardly say that it has attracted the serious attention of Her Majesty's Government.ler Majesty is desirous of acting in concurrence with France upon the great questions now nagital- ing the world, and upon none more than the contingencies connected with the great struggle now going on in North America, Neither Her Majesty the Queen nor the British nation will ever forget the noble amphatic manner in which the Emperor of the French indicated the laws of nations and assisted the cause of peace in the instance of the seizure of the Confederte Commissioners on board the Trent.Ter Majesty's Government recoguizes with pleasure in the design of arresting the progress of the war by friendly measures the benevolent views and humane intentions of the Emperor.They are also of opinion that if the steps proposed were taken, the concurrence of Russia would be extremely desirable.Her Majesty's Government has however, not been informed up to the present time that the Russian Government has agreed to co-operate with England and France on this occasion, although that government may support the endeavors of England and France to attain the end proposed.But is the end proposed attainable at the present moment by the courre suggested by the Government of France?Such is the question which has been anxiously and carefully examined by lier Majesty's Government.After weighing all the information which has been received frem America, Ier Majesty's Government ave led to the conclu- ; sion that there is no ground at the present moment to hope that the Federal Government would accept the proposals suggested, and a refusal from Washiugton at present would prevent any*speedy renewal of the offer.Her Majesty's government thinks, there fore, that it would be better to watch carefully the progress of opinion in America and if, as there is reason to hope, it may be found to have undergone or may undergo hercaf- ter any change, the three Corts might then avail themselves of such change to offor their friendly counsel with « greater prospect than now exists of its being accepted by the two contending parties.ler Majesty's Government will communicate to that of France any intelliegence that they may receive from Washington or Richmond bearing on this important subject.Your Excellency may read this dispatch to M.Drouyn De L'Huys, and give him a copy of it.(Signed) RUSSELL.Stangtead Journal, >.\u2014 \u2014 THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1862.#F The Editor of this paper has been confined to his bed with illness since Wednesday the 26th November.\"This is sufficient apology for any lack of editorial care observable in this and last week's issue, £2 Dr.Iluntoon will be at North Troy on Monday afternoon, Dee.8th;
