We have little from America on the internal straggle. The

Northern naval expedition has accomplished nothing, and a fleet loaded with stones to be sunk in the harbours of Savannah and Charleston has not yet arrived at its destina- tion. The border warfare in Kentucky and Missouri con- tinues without results, and the generals vie with each other in pro-slavery proclamations. The latest papers record,. however, one cheering fact. It would seem probable that there is a man left among the American politicians. The Freesoil party, which is immensely stronger than Eng-. lishmen, deceived by their exclusive attention to the tone of New York, are accustomed to believe, are calling on. Fremont to lead them against the Administration. The Germans, whose influence is increasingkeverywhere are his. devoted followers, and it seems probable that he could even

put himself at the head of a great party supported by the entire West. General Fremont calmly declines the support thus tendered hint, and waits till summoned by the na- tion, instead of a party, to carry out the inevitable policy. We do not known more bitter necessity than: that which, just as the sentence of slavery appears imminent, compel Englishmen to assist in staying its execution.
