Never hu a statesman of so g-e.it previous popularity so soon become a vary stench in the nostrils or the people he governs We loam by private advices re* ceived !n Washington by ths last steamer, that he contemplates resigning, and havo every reason from what we hear, as ooming from other parties in London connected with public aff-tirs, that (her* is truth fn this rumor. The London oorreepohdent of the Boston Post, writing by the came mail, tells of the actual raeigtation cf Lord Panmure, the head of the British War Office, who has become, if poesi ble, even more odious than Palmerston, owing to the flagrant defioionsy of the sorvioe over which he presides, as manifest in the re cults, so far, of the effo ts of the allied armlee to reduce Sebastopol. It strikes us, (fn the whole, that the Eoglish people and press hold Palmerston and Pan mure to responsibility whioh is not theirs legi timately, a* at times thay seem to be regarded be co:ountablo for all the short comings of the CMrpaign. We think this unjust, itsomuoh as it is a signal foot that the six months' fight ing in the Crimea has npt brought to light the existenoe of energy, genius, or attainments, military of oourre we refer to, in the charac ter of any officer in either tho Frenoh or En glish armies. Ono and ail, the general officers, and all other? whose positions there migh' lead (if they were moulded or the right metal) to distinction through signal services, seem to be. organised on the dead level t>f common place mediocrity. Menehikoff and Ooxer Pasha have alcnu shown military genius and resources of mind and character and energy, signalising them as great soldiers of the age.' So far as England is conoerned, this remarkable deficiency is not confined to her military circles, as with the exception of John Bright, she is now without a single public man in oivil life who mr?y fairly lay claim to originality and nerve cf thought; and it is *1111 questionable whether he is not an impracticable statesman, having b;en bred in the Quaker echod in publio affairs, whioh has so far failed to rear ap in England a sin g!e man who has proved himself competent to deal successfully with the business of states matship and to manage tho mass of his fellow :cen to advantage England is Indeed in a bad way, the ten. dency of her affairs being to ereata in the minds of her people a firm determination sooner or later to change her whole govern mental system The establishment of tho tlectrio telegraph fiosa Lcndun to Bilaklava, with the exception cf a gap of a few mile?, is opsr^ting to render the people much more discontented with their Government. Already the Tun*.? is complain icg that the war office, by withholding for a day ?Le news it receives from the aimy, is crowing the impression that mat .cw are grow ing wor*e in the Crimea. At noon, Lord Pan trure is believed to receive an account of what has been dene a few hours previously before Sebastopol, with a request for instruction* what to do the same night. In other word.-1, the establishment of the telegraph throws upon the ministry the entire responsibility for what may happen before the beiisged city, v?lthout the existence of a possibility that if the Allies triumph, they (the ministry) will reap their due share of the glory. L'nler such circum stances. the idea that aDy Government can held the confidence cf British public opinion for months until the war in the Crimea may be er.ded, is fu'ile. Wo are, therefore, evidently destined, for some time to ccme, to hear of fre qusnt changes in tho British ministry. S "York At Lee, T?q?We apprehend that this gentleman's memory is at fault with refer ?nee to a portion of the history of his connec tion with office in \\ aehington. lie says in the eard which a friend of his published, yester day, in the Star as an cdvertiseacnt: "During my official connection with the General Government, I have invariably op posed the indiscriminate removal of competent ard faithful elerks on account of mere parti san opinions " Taking it lor granted that he means by this to say that he has invariably beon opposed to removals on political grounds only, we have to remind him that there is evidence on file here, showing that he applied, over his own signo tura, for offioe on partisan grounds; that his friend, the lion. Lucius Lyon, of Michigan expres-Iy asked in writing that a Whig should be removed to make a place for him; and that a Whig was removed to give him the plaoe in the tffioe of the Register of the Trea'ury to whioh he was first appointed in this eity To imagine that on having his memory thus refreshed he will continue to proclaim his hos tility to the praotlce of giving clerical plaoes in Waehington on politioal ground*, (for which we confess little favor, indeed,) wuuld be to entertain the opinion that he is for it when he may be profiited by it, and against it when it may, by possible chaace, gore him. Mr At Lee, in the card in question, deniaa that he is a member of the Know Nothing order, but makes no denial of the identity of his present sentiments with those ] rcclaimcd by the Know Nothings, a leading one cf which avows the purpose cf proscribing from office every person who differs from ihem politically. Now, while we hava no love for the fashion of removing men simply on account of their political prinoiplaa, it strikes us that the very last man ia Washington who may rightfully complain against it is S York At Lee, Esq Tha Harper's Terry Election ?We hava a letter from a gentleman in Harper's Ferry ooncerning the recent election there, whieh embraces a full explanation of all faets of in* teres: which it elucidates Thus, tha writer says that what is known abroad as "Uirper's Ferry.*' consists of two wards or precincts: Harper's Ferry (under the bluff) and Bolivar, (on the bluff;) they adjoin each other, and Bol ivar is the residence of mcst of the workmen in and about the Uni ed States armory, the build ings of which, stores, Ac., cover nearly all the ground under the bluff. At the two precincts, the aggregate vote is about 600, and at tha last Congressional election, Faulkner's aggre gate majority at the two precatcts was 197. The Harper Ferry's precinct usually gives a Whig majority, while the Bolivar precinct over comes that msjority so as to make the aggre gate Democratic majority of tha two 197, ssln the oase o! Faulkner's last Congressional elaetion. The election held a day or two since was for a Mayor of the Harper's Ferry preoioot, the m-n.cipai government of whieh is separata from that of Bolivar. Tha result was an anti Know Nothing majority of 82, instead of a ma jority, as nsu?l there, against the Democrats. This ra- ult is oonceived in Harper s Ferry to indicate that the aggregate majority for Wise in the two precincts will ba about 100, instead : of 197, as Tor the Democratic candidate at the I aft Congressional election Invalidity of TOlihwtering Contracts ? Kennett it ?*/., vs. Chambers?Supreme Court, December term, 1852-Story J. The follow I By U an extract from the opinion of Judge Story in the case mentioned above: "The intercourse of this o >untry with foreign nitiens. and its policy in regard to them, are plac :d by the Constitution of tbo United 8ta'e<s in the bin is of the Government, and Its de cisions upon these euMects arc obligatory upon every oitis*n cf the Union, fie Is bound to ba at war with the nation agatnst which the war-making power has deolared war, and; eqa-'lly bound to commit no set of hostility against a nation with whioh the Government i? in amity and friendship This prioeiple is universally acknowledged by the lawf of na tions It lies at the foundation of all govern ment. as there oou!d be no social order or peaceful relations between the oitfeens of dif ferent countries without it. It Is, however, more emphatically true in relation to the citi isps of the United Stater For, as the sove reignty resides in the people, every oitiien is j a portion of it, and is himself personally hoend by the lawf which tbe representatives , of the fovereignty may pass, or the treaties into I whioh they may enter, within the soope of heir delegated authority. And when that au thority hat plighted its faith to another nation 'hat there shrll be peace and friendship be tween the oitisens of the two countries, every citiien of the United States if equally and personally pledged. The oompaot is made by the department of the Qovernment, upon which be himself has agreed to confer the power. It Is his own personal contraot as a portion of the sovereignty in whose behalf it if made. And he can do no act, nor enter into any sgreement to promote or enoonrage revolt or hostilities against the territories of a coun try with whioh oar Qovernment is pledged by treaty to be at peaoe without a breach of his duty as a citiien. and the breach of the faith plodged to the foreign nation. And if he does so, he cannot olaius the aid of a oourt of jus tice to enforoe it. The appellants say, in their contract, that they were induced to advance the money by the desire to promote the oause rf freedom Out our own freedom oannot be pre3erved without obedience to our own laws, nor Fooial order preserved, if the judicial branch of the Government countenanced and ?usrained contracts, made in violation of the duties whioh the law imposes, or in contra, vention of the known and established policy ot the political department, acting within the limits of its oocstitutional power." This extract it pregnant with meaning Chambers was a Texas General and agent, who made contractf for the eepply of various stores, arms, Ac., tent from tho United Statet in aid of the Texas revolution. However muoh our people justly sympathized in tbe cao?e of Texas, there was nothing legal in his (Chambers) contracts. This was the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States yeart after the achievement of Texan inde pendenoe and tbe subsequent annexation of Texas to the United States. Now the applica tion of this fixed fact of law, is that any man ia 57cw York or elsewhere who parts with hit money or property to be used for filibustering purposes, on tfee written promise of any body to repay, literally throws it away He has no claim in law; and ft plea that fillibu-tterlng was in any way connected with the contract immediately or remo'ely, will be as valid against tho claim as a plea and proof of tuury Folkf with money to fool away will take due notice.
