' Thi Raibioh Stakoabd of Saturday, tbs 8th Init., derotet half a column of editorial to the following re :, markt wbicb appeared io a recent iwus of the Journal: ' Tb talk that attribute! the removal of Oeil Hill, and other mattere and thing of that kind, to th operation of . Btatapartv politic or .Confederate party polillca, etr kfi a balng all wron." With at little with to contione thia diacuaiion, if each It caa be called, at the Standard clalma to have, wt moat repeat that thia thing t'rikca os at being all wrcng. Wrong, because, and we will oae. no harsher " - pbraae, the char get it Implica are Io tbe nmin, Incor v rect j atill more wrong because of the anim'ut wbicb 'too evidently dictate! it, aud of the ' fii't ' which It it ' too evidently calculated to produce wrong, because while oo ita faca deprecating prty apirlt and tbe di V riaiont an I betrt-barntngi t which that spirit gives . rite and wbicb art to muoh out of place io the present 1 emergency, it U tbe evident oChprlng of that spirit but . with to large and oncoaoealabla an admixture of per l ..tonal Irtltatlon ai aaaame the . form and degoncrote ' , into tbe character of lactioaaneas. , ' x . If, at a time like thia, a aenaa of duty demands of tbe 'pubiio preat that it ehoulJ nothing extenuate," eer- , taibly acqoally ttrong acnae of duty would adJ tbe final claoae of the aame rtqueet " nor aught set down Wo malice," surely it would be better to err twice oo tbe tide of extenuation, of tuklng a favourabo view cf things, In cases that fairty admitted of doubt, than - ' once, Irom preconceived opioions, political prejudices or pHtonal animosity to " set dowo ought in malice." All our readers know that during the past Summer - Wfl were not at all backward, either iff our demand up- on the authorities, or lo our denanciationa of what we conceived to be negligence or snplacss on their part. All oor readers know that Id the more recent matter of ! Roanoke Island, we endeavoured to find out where tbe blame rested, and to state plainly the facts as they ap. ' peered to ns, and tbe conclusions -at which we arrived from a consideratiorTbnheBO fScta. If wdjuhduTy pi. tenaated anything, we are not aware of it. If we have erred on tbat aide, wo carr rest eatiJr than if we bad font at far at we fear others have done by setting down aught in malice. ' V Tbe Slai.dard talks about the removal of General Bill from tbe command of the defences of part of our coast, and mixes op Jalge Biggs with that affair. We L , happen to find in tbe IUleigh Journal of the 8ih, the following "card." from Jadge Biggs io reference to -h' that matter: Iff ttBtlon hat hit htn rallrd to an article In the : Stat Journal ta wbicb I am iuformed tbat airport tutocir ' CQiatiua aumewbere, that I ibterlered in aortic wt. to nro- eora tba ramoval rf Geo.

Picayune Las infjrniation from the IVio Urajidc, received through a merchant from Urownsville, from which we learn that tbe cooditionof afLtirs ia that quarter indicates that another trouble is about to come npon our enemies. Tbe intelligence is that tbe British and French consuls at Matamuras bad presented to the United States frigate Portsmouth, a formul protect against the blockade of tbe Rio C ramie, and tbat on the 5 ib, tbe llritisb cotsal dispatched a schooner to Tampico, with orders for a British war vtfSL-1 to hastciu tgthe mo U rondo and prevent, even i the extent ot hoatilities, the blockade ol the rivtr by the Portsmouth. Tbeeonsui'a orders wero tbat tbe itritish vessel stionld engagrtbe Portsmouth immediuUly open ber artiral. The French consul had a)30 sent a rcoJcst to 7 ampico for the forwarding of a French war ship. The Ptcay una atldj: . A large number of vecSels arrived from Europe, are in durance nnder tbe guns of tbe Por smonlb. The captain of the latter will oot allow these vessels to dis charge their cargoes, noleas it is gqarauted that the goods will be delivered in Mataruoras ,aod not at Brown vilUf. Now tbia condition, even if legal, ia impossible, as me sieainooats plying rn me urn UruncJe tiro all jDwned in Brownsville, and as such, being the 'property oi rebels, ttit v dare not nudtrlake to llelitcn tbeFe Ku ropean vtssels at the mouth ot tbe river, fur in doing so they would run the risk ol being seized by the Lmtcd butts niKaie. Thus it will be teen tbat the damage for tbe detention ol the; neutral merchantmen must amount to rt - very round sum nguinst tbe by no means plciuotic puise oi old Abe. . ' .. . The Portsmouth contiuurs to fly tbe French Dig as a decoy to all traders approaching her station. She fre quently takes a short cruisj under the same colors, but when no merchantman is in sigtlt, she. hoists the old " gridiron. Mtmphts Appeal, Cth tnt Ltt cr from Ctiiuraaiidit- tcniuta t iki L'lllltr o( the London IVivrs Sir : An article in tbe Daily Aftcsvrevicpiug the rights and duties of belligerents and neutrals, has recent ly eome under my observation, in wbicb the following expressions occnr j At tbe same lime.it must bo admitted that' both the liomter amd the ?Tabvtlh have grossly Vr lftttHj the laws of civilized warfare, by burning- merchant ships to we waters eagt, instead or carrying them b lore prize ceurt. Tbeir cooduet is tertainly much more like that of pirates fiostes humani fieri,'at the com mnder of trie Sumter says. Nor is it clear that a oommanity which sanctions such barbarous proceedings deserves to be treated wilhthe same consideration wliieh is universally accorded to thoee who thimselvcs obsjtvt tbe laws or civilized warfare." Now, the above remaiks are exceedingly unjust not that I suppose yon iutend injustice, but you bave not rightly appreciated tbe position in which we of the uooiederate. btates cave been placed bv these " civili Z -d " nations whose rule of warfare you say has been violated, ureal imtain uus acknoaKded ns as a bel ligerent. This acknowledgment gives us all tbe rich's r at . i a. . . i . . . . " oi war tquaiiy witn tne otner party. One or the most ess . ntintof these rights on the high seas is the right 61 destroying tbe enemy's commerce, and tbns disabling bim Irom carrying on tbe war; a riuht which Great Britain, in all ber wars? bat fxcrchxd to lit fullest ex tent, and with terrible effect npon ber enemies. And when she bas not found it coovenunt to send ber prizes into ner own pjrts sne oos nad mat overweening man enoe with the nations of the earth which bas enabled ber to send tbera into ntutrol ports, and thereat) have tnera condemned by nt-r own prm coarta. . pprU ol the Confederate Mates were blockaded n or About the lst of June, 1861.'. teubs quently to tbit period, and with full kuowledge of ' the fact, Great Britain, ranee, and iSpaio, and tbe k?8?r maritime Powers of Europe, all ieened proclum Uions, d fining tbeir positions in the war. In these proclamations tbey prchiDited belligerent cruisers from bringing tbeir prizes into their portsexcept io case of necessity, and iu that event both tbe cruisers and their" prizes were to depart within twenty-four hours. In this state of facts, how can it be insisted, tbat we shall scud our prizes into port (or adjudication? Into whose parts shall we S"nd them? We cannot tend them into our own ports, for tbey are blockaded at least so far blockaded as to render it 6V ficult for ordinary aail ships to enter them. We cannot tend them into anyol the ports of those " civilized " nations who are so shocked at the barbarity of our burn ing them ? What then shall we do witb them ? Tbey are our lawful piiz captured, says Europe by the cruisers of a recognized dt facto Government. Shall we let them go? This would d-prive us of onr right of capture, or render null that right, which it th same thing. - And can this be wbat impartial Earope intend ed when it pennesj its proclamations ? It is readily admitted tbat the usual aoS more proper course is, at yoa say, for a cruiser bot to born her pri zes to tbe water's edge," but lo send them into a "prize conrt for adjudication," and this is the courw wbich l need not assure yon we would be .glad to pursue if tbe thing were po&siule, for obvious reasons. But if the nations of the earth pufltontcf our power to pursue tbia coarse, is it generous to find fault with os betaase we do not pursue it ? To Ebow you the- earnest desire which I bad in tbe beginning of my cruiae, to send my priz?s in for adjudication ratber tban take tbo respoosi biliiy of titling in judgment on them myself, I send yoa enclosed a copy of a letter which I addressed to tbe tJoreiDorof tbiowa of CieoJaegotiLjo. the Itland of Cuba, as ear'v as tle Cth of Jn' L.a ti.;. i.,.. ;ii CXnlaia it If. auid I bavs nnt in nm.L ;.v -.i to it tbat 1 had not at ita dale seen the Spanish procla mo too.
