The preset forlorn condition of the federal treasury, ltf JueScoflers of which, there remains but half i lidn pf dollars, and the yearnings of the starlit horde of Black Rcxublicans for pap. will gifrreat" importance to this financial suggestion r f ihe "distinguished capitalist, and will dqlubtlss furnish .an additional, and very satisfactory reason why no compromises out; hi to bcVuae with the "traitors" who are openly defin tle laws." But the question very naturalv susrsrests itself : how much more valuable' wiT "Vtleral stocks be, if coercion is at tcmpttnl upon these traitors, and civil war ensues.? It may be that tho "distinguished capi tali ts" thinks civil fK ould not ensue upon an it tempt at coercion,-and that a vigorous ''enforce' ment of the "'"laws'', would sneedilv reduce the country to ijfS wonted "condition of tranquility and peace,' tjWe! say it may be so, for we think the credulitfC ad ignorance of Europeans in re gard to Atiarican affairs is unlimited.

The trial wijl exfeite in terest both at home and on this continent;. Like the Gaines and Bonaparte cases, it fringes -on a qncstion of legitimacy, which will jieqtiiie all the skill of the highest legal acumen! to decide. It has already attracted some attenjlioaj fo'r in 1:822 Mrs. Serres demanded probate&f tbo will of George III.', but was refused, bec&iisej it was held that the court had no jnrisdlicticin and could not grant probate of the will Of ati Eng lish sovereign-.- In 1841 she sought to living it to an issue by claiming privilege from arrest as a member of the royal family, but again! failed through legal technicalities.

Sontterrt Con- The choice of nrovisional offioc-'to ireside over the new Confederacy, fills us wi fh 'admira tion for the wisdom and good sense of the South ern Congress. If in this they have reflected, as1 we see no reason to dispute, the views and! wishes of their constituents, we hail the omen asj one of the happiest attending the secession i mp vjement. If we must encounter a rival government upon' soil hitherto common to every American citizen, we greatly prefer that it should be 'controlled by statesmen of ample experience and ability, such as have: been ' chosen to control the! destinies of the Southern Confederacy. ; It is the weak and the incompetent who plunge their . j people into war, ; and precipitate its terrible calamities.; Statesmen of larger calibre, better appreciate and understand the blessings of peace, and labor more intelligently and. effectively to preserve the"m.- The selection of Jefferson Davis for Pres ident, ;and Alexander II. Stephens for! Vice Pres ident of the "Confederated States of America" is a step which will go far towards the.accom plishment of Ihe object in view the establish ment ofari independent government.' General Davis is a statesman pf great power' combining tinan anusual degree, the various qualifications ..forhis new position. He is efficient in action, cool in judgment, firm in purpose-, and conscien tious in his opinions. -He is not by any means the ire eater which many Northern presses hav e represented him; and we arenot sure thatihe-has any superior for the first office in the gift of any people oh this Continent. For Vice President, the Southern Confederacy . has a man who less than two months a'go, was pronounced by the entire Republican press, a, patriot and -a states man of the first order; a moderate, . honorable friehd of the Union. While those who thus praised Mr. ' Stephens, were either ' in some de gree ignorant oi nis position, or wnat is iuore probable, .governed, by partisan hialice their general estimate of his "character was quite cor rect. He deplores the" necessity for,' secession, aud has favored an appeal, to the justleej ofithe North, before taking the fjnal step:,' and. we have no doub t that .both he and General payis woiuld haver been infinitely better pleased to preserve the Union unbroken; - than thus to be made lea- -.h Anbcdotb or Miss MiTFoaoi-rMr;:fii 6 Jfall, the writerj has been recently delivering a lecture in Xoridpnj relating to tne various literary eele brlties with W-hora he bad come in ; Contact for the last forty 'years. .''He told anecdotes' of llook and ptherSj but-thee (following about;' Miss Mit ford was. especially relished by the 1 audience. .When she visited Mr, Hall's house, a. number of literary and. otherupersous were asseniblcd to meet heri!
