To illustrate the incrcdib!e exteat of their infa nation and inscL-nce, we quote frem the diplomatic correspondence of Kecrejtary JSeward a shameful but characteristic passage. The Secretary V wholeofib a! corrcspondeucj wus by Congress last winter ordered to be printed ; and tucb another mas3 of official writing, wLetter root its volu minous amount, or the character of a h;-ge portion of the dippBtches themselves, was never- bsiora seen in the transactiocs of thij Government. We may add, that this country was never before so disgraced in its diplo matic correspondence. Here is the passage ; it is ta ken from a diepateh to the TSritish Minister : MR. SEWARD TO LOItD LTOX3. "My lord, I can tench a bell at my right hand ocd order the arrest of a cit:z ;n in Oato.

About blf-pat four o'clock the battle became fisree and general. The scene at that hour, as viewed from the Bat tery promeua le, was truly grand. BAttery Bee had no miugled the hoarse thunder of its gua9 in tne universal din, and tho whdhi expanse of the harbor entrance, from Kull' vam'a island toCumming's Point, became enveloped in the moke and constant flishes of the conflict. The irorj-c'ads kept constantly shitting their position, but, whichever way they W(2t, ik'.r poita, aiwas turned towards the battle ments ol huaitr, poured forth their terrihle projectiles against the walla ot that famous tronghold.

Gentl?msn : I have spoken f the crisis in our af fairs. The world has never seen one exactly like it. Our rigsifs have been taken away by arbitrary power. Tbe sword and the bludgeon have been called in to ef ftct these mot wicktd outrages. What have we to op pose to them ? 1 he ballot only ; bat the ballot is mightier than kings. Applause. Tbe peet has well described how it As tghtly ffills As Enow-flAke6 fell upon the Eod' But executes a freeman's will As lightting does the will of Gcd 1" Great cheering. Now, my frif nds, what is required of u. at thisjunc ture of affairs ? I address mjeelf indiscriminately to a!l thosf who bave enlisted under our banner to those who have eulistid undtr our bant er tor tbe vigorous prosecution of peace. Great cpplause What is re quired of us, I y ? Perfect freedom oi speach, abne gation of self, 32lt-pose3sioo, steadi es of purpose, and a firm and uoalttrable resolution to ttct'd by the Con sti'u'bn and the laws. Wefl, now, your declarations, my friends, in regard to these great objects of your party ergauization, es txpressed in th proceedings of jcur convention, have raised a storm about your heads, aod it rages at the present time. 1 am glad that it is eo i st e in the very fury of the gele ibe means of de livtruree." Applause Gentlemen, I crossed the B! -ck sea unce in a 1 arlul tempest a lempest that ?rut ihe waves cha&ieg aftt r U3 1 ke so many fiends ; but it was the wild winds that drove away the mist then aioi g tie coast, and opened to our view the anchorage of the HoL-phorus. If it bad not been for the gale, we mit.t have d.ilied toward the Asiatic coast and been etui-lit between the Sympleg&des. No v, the rage of man is as tbe ragirg t-ea, and those that fear either will i o; d to pursue the leviathan under the tropics, or to grapple with the hydra of Fedfid ab-jiiiionism. 'A p ause . Gen 1 m i, ihe '.oings of your eouveu'.ii-n have my hearty approval. Thty have calJed out aii the bitter ness ol tbe opposition. Now, it is lamentable .that there f-i ould be so much bitterness at tte preeeut day, but I suppose that it cannot very well be helped. Il jcu and tiio.-e associated witn you io drafting your res olutions and globed over the atrocious doings of the men in power if you had compioml-(d wi;h your con scn nees a-,d foucd an excuse here and an a polo: y there ;or wt.u hut be; n done, you might 'have ptssjed muster '.vlih ihe men in power, uud be(n voted pa'r ots of the eecoW ruU:r, if .bt el the fiist. - Cut, my itiends, it is better ts it is. ' bo nobly ends by noble means would obtain ou'd not teuutthe eot ol ihe struggle. . Wbo would win the crown mu3t fiist wrestle with wild beasts at Kphetus, and I ther.fore rejoice that you have taken jour sfai.d i-i favor uf Stat rights and constitutional righis, aid that you are. determined to maintain. these. Aj pLusc D j this, and jou shall r cover your lib trtu. Great applause Fail to do fhi?, and you win tc et ushed between the upper and nether tniii stone. Naw, gvijiii men, anoiiier thing : Since you save come cut thus boldly, as you should have done, tLe old talk is revived here in tcis community about loyal and dis tcya!, ard tests of this kind are applied to one and an otber iu this community. Now, these wbo rue these ords, in scorn cr of hatred ot ycu, either do not know the true origiit aod application cf these words, or they aie treublcd with what is called the "King's Evil." Laughter. Sir, what have loval or disloyal to do with our instituliors ? ' h;jy ate not indigenous to our soil arty more ihin the Canada' thistle cr the deadly upas. Witn the American.' east on the British yoke, they ban '.she tl the woid ioyal " and disloyal " from our political Cibie. "hey ere Lot to be ftuud in the Con suiaikn of yeur country or ia the " psalm " ct " Jel itjison a. id Liberty." Cut 1 will tell you where you may find them. In the proclamations ot Lord Howe, and C'ornwallis, and Cl nton, and in their orders which ga?e tbe Jersejs and Carolinas to fire and sword ; and U jou lock further, you may possibly fir.d them in the dtaih warrant which censigoed the c.artyr Uale to an igu'aminious grave. We are not culled utoa to indulge iu iuy such language as this. Devotion to the Consti tattou oi the Ut-ioa of our country is the sentiment of tur heart, and is all that we are called upon to render. As Icr thoee other word of " tieason,"' Bed " traitor," which political hatred is constantly caaLicg in the faces of patriotic liberty-loving men, they, are of little or no" accouof, excepticg when the lying tongue may expose some individual to odium or positive injury. In such a ease let the traducers bsware. Great cheer- But, my friends, 2gain; the duiegsofycur convention have raised a clamor in this ard other communities, the amount of which is that you are about to inaugu rate a civil war iu the cuatry. Now, then, we will take care that there shall be no civil war, applause, and we will take care that the people have tnir lights. Great applause. Who ever heard cf a peace measure pi evoking war and bkedsbed? These men, I fear, are troubled with d stcmpcred fancies. They have had so much to do with biood-lettitg, that it seems to have discolored everything abaut them. If they lecall tbe mission of Wiiliam Petn, they wifl be apt to conelstde tb&t peace measures, alter all, are not so bad.- When he came to the banks of tbe Delaware, it was a wild country. Ttee he icutid a wadike tribe, who Lad been -butch' ring .tsch ether, time cut of mind; pcalpit-g -each other, knocking cut each other's brains. War to them was u pastime, end blood ihe icecss of their lives. The story is a touching oae. A- grave man, animated by the true spirit of puila ithropy, went in among the red men and ta!k-:d to the in as a friend. IJe got them together in council ; Le breathed into them something ot the divke principle of charity that was in him. TLey listcLed to him as one s.n' by tbe Great Spirit, and all at once he telJ them, as it were, in the hollow of his band. Iu voluntarily they laid down their arms, they curied the Laic :et, at,d forever after cessed to make war upon each otter. But these mtjn that have truduoed ycu, your princi ples and your intentions, have conveyed tne, idea, or sought to convey the idea, that if the Democratic party coal i get power a.s I hav:1 no djubt they are about to d;, ine- i ehe rirg the Uws are to be overturned. Ah, it : a i.Ul cn itiegieai, aud numerous and patri otic parry. I'.'ie-r hislory 13 that oi a la-Vabiding par ;,us uu gentlemen, bjth ol.y.u (iurning to Mr. I'oucey'aLu Air. Eaton,) very well is uow, If the old Wjiigparty were in existence, they voulJ tell you so. They' will do nothirjg when in power, either to grieve the living or sully the memory ot the dead. Let our conservative fcliow-citizens, men of property, give no hceJ to rumors and declar .tions of this s?ri, but be lieve that, in the event of any such triumpu of the par ty to which I ufer, the laws will be maintained, and that equal and exact justice will ba meted out to men ot all partiei and sects, and persuasions. Great ap phuse. Another thing. They talk to us of government. Th'y say pou mu3l support .the government. Sir, I understand perfectly weil what is meant by thi3 cry "Support the government." It meaus, if it means Enyihicg at all, that we are to support this administra tion right or wrong ; and that I do not intend to d x Great cheering. I can see when we can make a dis tinction between what is called the government and what is done outside of the government. 'I here are several kinds ct government. There is that of the South of Turkey, a government of the one man power. He may send his mutes with the bow-string to throttle those whom he fears and hates, or he may tie up bis women ia sacks and throw them in the Bospuorua. There are other gov ernments where men in power act independent of any law, except the law of their own breath'and a higher law, which is not known to patriots. Then there is the constitutional form of government, under which I was born, which I have supported, and under which, when my time comes, I would wish to die. Applause. Now, although the Sultan of Turkey may not do wnat he pleases without being ealled to an account for it, there is no fcuch inhumanity for a ruler under a republi can form of government. Whatever is done in aiccor dabce with the cpnetitution of tbe United States is tbe government aod a portion of our national life; and whatever is done contrary to that constitution iaco government at all, such as our forefathers established, nut a wicked usurpation. Cheers Where are we at the present day ? All the most valuable righis of, the citizen, those especially that are set forth in the twelve amendments of the constitution, have been swept away by the men in power, and to-day I lament to be obliged to say it to-day we are living undar a differ ent form oi government than that which our fathers founded and sealed with their blood. Our remedy for present abuses is not in revolutionary proceedings, but in the exercise ef the right of ballot of which I bave just spoken. No?f gentleman, I see around me quite a number of naturalized citizens, and I wish to say a few words to them. The tima baa come when we may speak plainly to each other. I ask you, my friends, what induced you to this country ? To escape tyranny." Do you think me impertinent for asking tbe question and giv ing you thr answer to it myself? Why did you leave the Rhine and the Rhone and the bordera of Lake Ge neva? Why did you leave the Neufcbatel and Con stance ? Why did you leave tbe Elba and the Scheltd aad the Hague ? - Why did you leave eunny Italy, tbe scene of civil war for more than a hundred years, and why. tbe vine-clad hills of France ? Why did you leave Caledonia, " stern and wild," and sweet lakes that ces tie in the bosom of hills ? Why did you leave Killarny and Kilkenny, and these consef rated places where Cnr ran and Gratia thundered cgr nit oppression, and where Emmit laid down bi3 life? Applause. Wby did you leave the grave of your kindred in the Fatherland, the Gcd's acre " of Germany, and the churchyard cf the United Kingdom ? Why did you leave the histor ic scenes of the Old World, where tha Rojian, the Northman, and the blue-eyed Goth have bten, and where they Lave left the impress of their moral pow er, or of brute force scenes where I bave sometimes stcod, as it were, entranced, ti'l I seemed to ba in corporated with the past, while ages surged by me? WTby did you leave the beautiful, the tender, the touch ing, the sublime why did you leave all these for the new world ? Better, perhaps, I have sometimes thought in these cays of trial, that the good ship in which ycu embarked bad been stranded" on the French, the Ger mm, or the Irish coast, and you plucked from 'he re morseless wave not less crnel and remorseless than t he wrath of man have returned to your native viHf g?, there to take up the burthen ot lile again ; better this than that you should bave come here just to taste the sweets of liberty, and all at once have the cap dashed from ycur bps. Applause. " And new for my ccswer. You come here to get rid of unjust law, of !ious taxe3 " that take fro:n the. mouth ot labor the bread which it ba3 earned " to get rid of large armies aad navies that eat out the eubsfctice of the people, to get rid of stamp acts and conscription acts, to be rid of provost marshals, and game keepr-rs, and bumbaliffe, the instruments of the iron ru'e. Great applause Ye-u came hither to get rid ol a vile sys.. m erf espoinuge for which onr language has no nam,.', and to get rid of the passport system that stops you ai every frontier town til', your paseport can be vised and stamped. You caaie where foeech wa3 free aid the press ireej where there was trial by jury, where labor was honored, and man, tbe lord of his little patch o! ground, or, it may be, of hia acres, cculd take his err.l dren in his j&rms and thank God that he was bcrj in land of freedom. Great cheering. This id what ycu came for. And y-uu cie wher-i civil and religious liberty bad found an asylum ard reared her te mples to justice and to the worship of the living Gcd. But, m; n ol foreign lands, you whom I have sometimes welcomed to our shores, I am bound to tell you that in some things you bave been misled lately, d ceived, beguiled, and cast, as it were, into the horrible pit. In the last year a year which, fcr its violation of personal rights and disregard of constitutional obligations should be strick en from the calender the men in power, disregarding the rights of the people under the Constitution; have struck down, in a succession of outrageous blow?, many of the rights which you had acquired here, and tte privileges which you had begun to et joy, and hav - re newed here in cur country some of the v-'orst feature.? ot the rotten dynasties of Europeau and Asiatic countries. And now, gentlemen, your remedy i3 in your own hands. United together, and firm in your purpose, you may recover that wbich you bave lost, and recover these inevitable privileges in a constitutional way. Gentlemen of the different clubs for I suppore you are all represented here I see in your organization "the noble impu'se, the patriotic purposes, the holy aspera tion and heroic resolve which have characterized the true friends of liberty ia oil ages of the worlS. Your late Convention wa3 a remarkable one. Every town in the State was represected. This is something which has never occurred belore. Nor is th ? explanation a difficult one. Every town has suffered more or less by the war. Every town has seen on the edge of its hori zon the shadows of some coming despotism. Every town has given something of the flower of its youth to the cause. Some have relumed crippled for life; others have come back to tell the story of how they were treated by those who should Lave been to them friends and protectors. Every town is loadei with taxes. In fill cf . them there is more or less mourning. Rachel weeping for her children, and refusing to be comforted because they are not, and all of this misery, desolation, burthen, end oppression, for the sake of political abo litionism. (Applause.) Now, gentlemen, a word or two more and I have done. What is the mission of the hour? lt is to speak out, and speak plainly, and not only that, but to speak the whole trurh ; and if you do this, you may say that we have gone far enough in an unprofi table and cruel struggle. "It is time to sheath the sword and spare mankind." (Great cheering.) " Al ready have cur quarrels filled the world with widows and orphans." But, perhaps, you say to me some of you we are to gain by this struggle, and therefore it should go on. Gain what? If you conquer the South, you have got to keep an army there to hold them in subjugation, and empoverish yourselves to pay for it. It you devastate the South and turn the African loose, you destroy that portion of your country which was once your best home market, and convert it into a desert. Is it liberty that we are to gain? Alas, my friends, you have well nigh lost ycur liberties by permitting the military to override the civil power. Depend upon it, such a contest as this, at the present time, there can ba but one enc1, and that will be despo tism for yourselves and children. The only hope ia a return to peaceful counsels; the cry should go forth frcm one end cf the land to the other," We have had enough of this death struggle." But wh"at is to be done, ttey may say, afler you get a cessation of hostilities ? We cannot, perhaps, penetrate the future and be able to see at this moment what can or should ba t'one. But allay the passiors which war engenders, and we shall be at no loss to find a.way. God will he.'p us. Applause. J It is not by lorce of arms that we are to have .another Union, but by forc-i of reason. Reason hides her elf in these days a poor, caked, chiverirg thing uvall the pelting of the sto m. Go to your atrny, and they "will tell jcu they have had enough of slaughter. Brave men will tell you thii. There ha3 not cce bat tle been fought since the v.sr begun, whether in their favor or against them, that doubts have not arisen ia their minds" as to the possibility cf Cvcquricg the South. Some of them remember what Chatham said on tbe rebellious polonies. They could not forget, either, nor should we forget, that the men on the other side of the "iovidious line" are et our own kindred f-pirits also, and, reflecting oa these things, thebT m?r. Of whom I am speaking, who are, many of them, look ing to Connecticut and hoping for a democratic tri umph here, applause these men began to d uubt the morale of the war. Ia it for freedom, or i3 it tbe work of Cairr in a multiplied, vast acdfc!arft:l frm ? Ihe pulpit may push it on, bat the word3 of Christ 6ha!l re buke the puipit'8.thunder "Bleesed are the peace ma kers, for they shall ba called the childr&d ot God." Tremendous applause. Chinese Scgar Cake. It being out of tha question to get molasses at present, let every farmer plant every seed that he can obtain of the Chinese Sugar Cane, and make ali h j can of tbe sirup, which is an excellent Eub stitute. It wa3 profitably made before the war at lej than 50 cects.a gallon ; yet we shall not fail to see it selling this Summer at .5 a gallon, unless the war should, end. The proper tim3 tar planting is said to be late in April or early in May. The seed must be gowo in good soil, and lar removed frcm broom corn or otbr plants which bear reed atthe top of the stalk. It wiji yield from 100 to 150 gallons ot sirup to the acre a'jd a large quantity of seed and fodder suitable fot food for stock: Afler the canes is run thrugh tbe mill, there 13 much juice left in the stalk, which should be fed to hogs. At $3 per gallon for the sirup, it is more profit able than tobacco at $40 per hundred. - Fay, Observer. ' ' ' ' ' L-JL it.'. . ii' .i.iri' .".iinuimi 1 ''-.. ..--'..mtil.ii . ; TERMS OF ADVERTISING.
