Cilil aBdSpsLn Important If True
T&e;New JTork Herald professes lo
fcavej by the? last steamer from South
ampton, private intelligence of start
ling import to the Pacific coast States
. engaged la the war with Spain, and of
great Interest to all civilized nations;
Thesubstance of this intelligence is,
iMJ:y.U-7, ?:;;;,.;;;:...;:
On the 17th of March, an officer of the
SpasisH Navy, supposed to have been Rear
Admiral Isquierdo, left Southampton, with
positive orders to bombard Valparaiso,
and iaen, 'withdrawing to Montevideo,
abandon as fruitless the war against the
Allies. A Chilean bearer of dispatches left
tblaity oa the 11th inst., for Aspinwall,
bearing this important Intelligence to the
Chilian anthoritie. . , - .
The Spanish, despalrtng at their inability,
to continue the war in the Pacific, and
chagrin ned at tbe repeated reverses with
which their inadequate Navy has met,
have resorted to this treacherous and bar
barous way of ending the war which they
foolishly began. The bombardment of
Valparaiso as a measure of a mereTevenge
would be not only barbarous and impoli
tic, but highly criminal,
From the Louisville Courier, 10th.
Confederate Democracyr , .,.rf
Some ia dividual in -that "most liil
scrupulous.., sheet, the. EvansvilleJ
Party applies. the term "Confederate
Democracy." vf'; :
From what -cause the great 'party,
whichbears the honored name of De
mocracy, should win the unqualifying
adjaetive of Confederate, we are not
prepared to see, without it should
come, from the unconquerable hero
ism manifested by! the Confederate
armies on the battlerfields of. the
Southi' while ; battling, for: what the
peopln .of; those States deemed
riaht:
and from the noble spirit of manhood
whch' 'prompted a people to accept the
results of the bloody issue originally
forced upon them by the same fiends
who, are td-day again plotting blood-
shea and, a, breach" oi a suffering na
tion's peace.;; Common sense and his-.
tory,inay have taught them that the
issue might ultimately overturn every
hope akdInteifest; they ' enjoyed asfa
people, still" they accepted the issue,
and like brave men have abided the
result We are proud to be able
to record the inborn -heroism of the
men of our country, who fought for
principle, although unfortunately
against each other, alike from every
section i var proaa country, and the
overcome soldiers and citizens of the
South have no, warmer friends to-day
than the hrav sn?ri-ira nf tho Knih
who met them on their hundreds oi"
battle-&elds, and tnumnhed in arrest
ing'the secession of those States, and
.tne esort at independence, '.Neither
theTsoldlers or the South . nor of the
Notth brought about the late clash tyf
arma uvx t our . American lamiiy. ; i o
blame can ever rest upon the memory
of those,' who' met upon sanguinary
. fields, '. and braved death for principle.
The bla aie-'-the curses of an outraged
peopler-:the deep guilt of murder, ar
son,, misery, should, must and will rest
upon the' heads of just such incarnate
devil, are plotting again against
" the reace of the eountry, commencing
with Stevens, and winding up at the
small end of nothing whittled down to
a paiati 'namely, the editor of the Ev
ansviUe Journal. . :

' Mazzini, the Italian Repuhlican,
sees hope in the sky ahroad. He
writes hither : " An energetic conduct
of the United States in the question of
Mexico would hasten the fall of Louis
Napoleon. Impress our friends in
America that it is of vital importance
that at a given occasion the men of
the 'European Republican Committee,'
whose sympathies are secured and
purposes are certain, may obtain the
leadership by moral and any other aid
from America." : - -. -- , o , .
