J .Sir Hugh Cairns proceeded to say that he appre ; hn-.d tU-r-. cuiild be eo doubt about another propo ! iiti.j it). It was thi?, that the law would not permit any ; on t? ta go iaside a neutral territory, and there arm, and I p.-cpttre lar lustilitic-i? in a way calculated to do hostile i act.-, a 1.

Inc intention or toe legisia tar.: would bo to prevent the subjects from doing any u.ia" v.i.icli v.'culd erc&te a d.florence between the bel- j ii 'c-r'ebis and thera. Then came the history of the act. ; Ihe ii.-si net of the kind was passed by the Congress j of Uniicd .Stales in 17lU. Mr. Canning, the Alin- i i. t'T, win n introducing the Foreign Enlistment Act i ia o th? ilcr.?3 of Commons, a'ladeto the American j net. ( i'lse learrcd counsel read an extract from Air. Caatii-og's speech, in which an opinion is given ap- ! crovicr vl the decisions come to ia America in refer- j ence to tte tjuesiioa at that time. Jn trie course 01 nis : argument the learned counsel adverted to the case of a j ship of ambiguous description going out of port un- crntcd, r.cd shipping an armament on the sea. I JJ:-ron UramweU said that if such a cas were not a ' b: c-.tr 0: the law, it certainly looked like an evasion. ' it.ir lli'gh Calms i he moment it is said to be an ' evasion, the case is conceded to cic. I.tav.-a Uramwol! The word "evasion" has two ; m .'ar.ir.g-3.

Sir II. laiui:"3 intimated that ho would deal with the qu-ist'C-i fi he prcseeded. The learned counsel then quoted d,-ci:iocs cf the American courts in support of hH vie .v cf the lo.-.v, and addressed hiais-lf to tne Ka irlish i- ot and the circumstances ucdir which it was pass ed, 'i'he cbj .ct, in the iirat instarjee, was to prevent ar-;car-:u-3 and enlistmsnta in behalf of the American e leaics of Spate, which had revolted against the moth er ooaatry. IWcrring io the various SiCiioa of the En- i guifu siatu'.o, uc taiu me prtucsptc 1 ucuw wuaigvu was 1 tii.a'c j ur.d r the ec venth. lu order to ascertain what i ti e 1 lie cc imputed was, it wa3 necessary to proceed by id .1 he conttcaed, in the first piaee, that, there wa n.dbing to prevent a ship being built, as distin gushed lre' " qupptng, fitting out, and arming." Sir 11. Cairns : Jim bo. 'Lbere wa3 nothing in the sect ion to restrain from hiring a ship f or carrying out wa.liiie sioi'eS to b delivered to a ship or port abroad, t i;ea a-ain, there was nothing which intimated that buildLg and titlieg c-ut dispatch boats (a cost impor tant arm ol the servict), was illegal. So a3 there was i-othitig to forbid he building ol a ship as distinguish ed ironi tic ' equipping, tttiug out, and arming," there was nothing which forbids the taking the hull of that v-sei and towing her away, like any other article of i lej by t:e geclion. First, it must bs committed with1 a i .-,, .1 ... ..-.,.,-,. K i bet" jij-ity o domiaiciiS, and there mu3t bi aa equip j oicut as a &hlp of war, by which hi understood an cu.,:pmjat of a warlike charaefsr. IJaroo Cram well : Short of arming '! Sir II. Caircs It may bd ehort cf arming. I say nothing about that, but the equipment complained of mast be ol a waihke character. 'Ihe third ingredient ia the view or iceation that the ship should be used by erne bJiigerent against another. That being the pnacq al e.tleuce, I will now address myself t a the mi nor word?. " attempt, endeavor, procure, and be con e -rce 1 The l-:arned counsel went on to say that he wa? fcurpri-.ed to find that one of the complaints made o;1 the application for the ru:e was, that the Lord Chief Baron had not called the attention of the jury to the ternt : of the act eo to " attempting, endeavoriog, procuring, ar.d being concerned in." lie was astonish ed at that complaint being made, since the late Attor ney Ceaeial s ated most distinctly that he rested the prcs:cu;ion upon the first eight counts, in every word of which th-- word " equip " occurre 1, without the slightest re'.er-nee to the " attempt, endeavor , procur ing ;' Then, wu'a what jastice could it be made a ground of complaint that the learned Judge had not uTicied the attention cf the jury to that point? It vtrr.3 q lite clear that it was never intended by the late Attorney General to make the " attempting, endeavor ing and procuring" part of the ease lor the prosecu tion. The Atioraey Ceneral said that &3 tb.2 reputation of tbcj late Attorney General was ia some measure at stake, he wou'd read an extract from the printed report of his fenders within the cpcration of tne act. - Sir II. Cairns did not mean to say that the Attor ney General lad formally abandoned the counts on that heal, but he did practically ; and it was impossible for h;m after acccuacingitbe ground on which he rested the prosecution , to put he matter in a new condition ia teis reply. Something had been said about an evasion of the set or Parliament. What he understood by eva ding an act of Parliament was avoiding committing ihe cfiCtK-e which it created ; and why a man should bss puoished for avoiding the perpetration -of an offence, wes cne of tie things which he could never under stand. Baron Bromell said it might be contended that if the thing wasjdone substantially under tha protection ot the neutral territory, by its means, cutaide tb.3 final ppiech ;n reply, which wa3 to the eilect that tne jary, ii t hoy thought there bad. been an attempt or endeavor to commit the ciT.nce, would be bound to bring the of- equipment took place although the jurisdiction of the neutral power, there was ad offence . committed au-Jer the act of Parliament. Sir H. Cairns said : The jury must first make op their mindi aa o what was meant by eqaipmsnr. It surely could not be held that the fabrication of the guns in this couutry, or the transfer ot them to the vessel be yond the limits of the neutral territory, was the equip ment contemplated. The learned counsel was proceedir g with his argu ment when the Court adjourned till to day. The Times S3ys it is doubtful whether the decision of the Exchequer can be given before the end of the term; that decision, however, whatever ft may be, will not eet the question at rest. An appeal will still lie to the House of Lords. The battle which occupied four days last tlrap, will have to be fonght over again before a jary All this time the legal characters not only of the Alexandria, but of the steam ram3lyiag in tte dock yards in the Mersey, must remain an unsettled question, ted no similar contracts can safely be executed by any of the shipbuilders. The Times adds: At least it is some comfort to reflect that the Alexandria case will deserve to be a landmark of jurisprudence. Ftrnacdo Wood on ihe War. Fernando Wcoi.of New York, attended an enter toir,ment given by the1' Peace Democrats " oi Bergen County, IViw York, on the 24ah ult., and made a speech, which posefses the importance only of showing in advance what will be his course and that of those who concur with him in the Congress which meets at "Washington next Monday. The following were some of the toasts given on the occasion : 'I he State of Illinois the star cf hope ia the West.

The only possible remedy for secession, and the only hope of the Union Peace, mutual concession and com promise. " Blecaed are the peace makers." In response to a toast complimentary to himself, Mr. Wood spoke as fol lows : Whatever may be the secret of or avowed grounds on which a prosecution of this war is urged, rest assur ed, my friends, it leads to a result that will engnlf ail alike in one common mtc'strom of destruction. I care not whether it be prosecuted for patriotic purposes or ot ; the objects of men or of the Government are nothing in view of the.ftUJt that the effect, tendency and catastrophe will ol necessity be fatady disastrous. It is foliy to prate of motives, however high and en ncb iug they may ostensibly appear, when the results which accrue from those motives are destructive and debasing. It may be as well said that a man is justi fied in jumping from an eminence, a fall from which ia certain to break his neck, because he did not design doing sn injury to Limself. Whatever his intentions may have been, he perishes in the act. So with this war. Whether we will or no, its continued prosecution is certain destruction. There is no such thing as rebellion under the institutions upon which the Government of this country is founded. Suppose New York chose to secede, who dare attempt to prevent here ? Virginia hid the same right B9 New York. War is disunion and disintegration. No man in his senses disputes this. Every man who favors it, directly or indirectly, favors the dissolution of the Amerioaa U-iion promotes the establishment of a centralized despotism, and advances the fortunes ot the most desperate and unscrupulous knaves that ever cursed a country. 1 he advocates of the war may well be classed as the " evil disposed " and the " simple minded." The precept delusions must subside. Like the French revolution, the dread 'ui era of carnage and fanaticism must run its course and have its extermination. All civil wars founded on social or moral ideas have pro duced the same excitements, been pregnant with the same popular outbreaks, and culminated as this will ia the downfall and extinction of the men or party who advocated them. Rely on this. History will repeat itself in this instance as it has in a thousand others our nature has not been chacged ; men are now as in the days cf Robespierre and Cromvell bloody, treach erous, fanatical, selfish and unpatriotic. Lie believed that when the President called for troops, if only one State Executive, with brain and nerve, had done his duty under the Constitution, the war would have been stopped before new. With 100, COO under Lee threatening Washington, neither Stan ton nor Lincoln would have had courage enongh to turn and face the fire they would have felt in the rear. It is the duty of the people now to refuse to give another man or another dollar for the purpose of carry ing on the war. A reference made by the speaker to Mr. Vallandigham was received with the most boister ous applause. Ex Got. Price, of New Jersey, followed Wood. He endorsed all the most ultra demonstrations of copper-bead doctrinism denunciated by hi3 New York examplar. He believed the only solvation of the coun try lay in the restoration to power of the Democracy, and he was cot very scrupulous as to the means by which the Democracy Becured the necessary lease of power. Other speeches were mcde by C. Chauncy Burr, Judge Van Loon and others, and a letter from Hon. J. P. Singleton, cf Illinois, was read. libit Ko.nl from Chatlauocgn. The fact that Bragg is falling back into Georgia a'ocg the liDe of railroad leadirjg lroni Chattanooga to Atlanta, causes a natural enquiry as to the distances from point to point of that road, b or instance the dispatches yesterday stated that Bragg bad fallen back upou DaitOD, and ytt not one out of a hundred could tell how far this was from Chickamauga or Ohattauoo ga. The distance from Chattanooga to Daltou i3 38 milns, and from Chicamauga to Dal ton, (Bragg's re treat) is 28 miles. We give the following table of dis tances of the railroad leading from Chattanooga direct ly to Atlanta, as it will be found very useful for refer ence in connection with the movements of the armies in that section : From Chattanooga to Mileu.

It is quite natural that they should seek some excose for ttjeir disgraceful conduct. Hence their miraculous ta!e3 about the "complete destruction" of the army out "terrible loss" the "blu3" prospects the "great number of Yankees" the imposibillity of making a stand, ,&c, Let our people be on the lookout for stragglers, end cowards. Our cause is not lost. We have only been whipped in a lit le fight for the posses sion of Mt. Lookout ; that's all. We'll get the Yan kees n? xt time. It is a long line of "luck" that has no turning point. Who knows but the next battle may r salt in the full acknowkdment of our independence ? We don't. The times don't look half so bae for us as they did at one time , for our grand sires just before the battle of Yorktown Columbus Sun Gkh. Brag. This offic9r,pas3ed through this city this moroing n route for Newnan wher 3 hi3 ' family is at present sojourning. To what duty this officer will now bs assigned rumor sayeth not. Gen. Bragg's appearance was pale and haggard. He is at best singularly saturnine of vis&ga and is now pe culiarly dark of expression. A tall, thin man, with eyes deeply sunken beneath ths most lowering lashes, thin, blue lips, nirrous and inconstant, scajat gray hair and beard, a narrow forehead; there are lew men in the South so etrikidg in person. Gea. Bragg ig eaid to be a chronic dyspeptic ; Be is certainly in ill health, and perhaps this is a reason for certain ecQCntricrtjec, ot temper now and then manifested by him.

A sparrow c&ught ui on a tree The piunlpest fly ; all unheeded Were struggles, cries and agony, As for his life the victim pleaded ; "Nay," quoth the spa. row, "you mast die, For you are not so strong aa I. A hawk surprised him at his meal, And in a trice poor sparrow spitted ; In yaiu he gaapou his last appeal, 'What crime, Sir Hawk, have 1 committed? '. "Peace !" qioth the captor, "you must die, For you aie no- so strong aa 1."

France, Denmark and Belgium just about cover the same territory, whilst the thirty seven Empires, .Kingdoms, DachitB and Principalities of Germany, leaving out VVurteraburg, do no more.

The following communica tion, showing that the delenders of Fort Sumter are watched with eager interest, appears in tte Mobile Ad vertiser aud Register : . , Sumter Fund. All eyes are cow turned to thi3 fort; great in its ruins. " Even in her ashes live her wonted fires.11 ' It seems to me that the Confederacy ought to raise a handsome luad, to be distributed among the gallant deieuders of that fort, or the families of. those woo may be sacrificed in it's defence. To stand exposed, day and night, to this feu d'enfer, without the power of reply ing requires greater courage than is required on the field ol battle. Let them see by this substantial testi mony that the people duly appreciate their, strviees. Just in proportion to the efforts ot the enemy to take it ought to be ours to retain it. The Confederate States Armory, located at this place some two and a half years since, acd which has grown to be a vast concern, has been remodel to Co lumbia, S.
