Kidney Bean Cottage, 24th of 4th Month, 1860. To the Editor of the York Herald. DEAR Sin,---ii. your issue of last week, I perceive two or three letters signed, Wm. IVIoslcy, in which,the writer calls upon you, to publish a letter which he tells you, he sent to the editor of the New Era. for publication, and begs to call attention to his last issue, to another epistle signed, Seth Ashton, and insmuatCs that it was written by some larger man than myself, and very flippantly styles it a budget of his, and falsehood. This is a very convenient method of disposing of an article, though, Only adopted by men of feeble intellect, as a last resort. Mr. Mosley aptly illustrates, the con dition of a certain bird, which, when hard pressed, runs its head beneath the first ob- ject lying in its path, and innocently imagâ€" ines its body safely hidden, and seem totallv unconscious that the rest of its body is exâ€" posed to the gaze of every observer. Mr. Mosley may say, that the letter in ques- tion, was written by some larger than than myself; and I. might say, that. his was written by some smaller man than himself, and the one might be as true as the other. However, I may yet be ebb: (if spared ,) to satisfy even .\'I|‘.,i\l0slcy. that I write. my own lettera The mere budget of Deal 0.“ he so politely terms my letter, is cveryl WUt‘tl true, as be is perfectly aware, and instead of saying what he (lltl, he should have said, “ "l'is true, and what a pity ’tis , true,” the original documents are in in; 7 possession, and any one desirous may M't‘ , them by calling. 9 But Sir, in order that the public may judge between us, I would refer your road.

The noble speech of Lord John Russelli upon the question of Savoy has created a sensation throughout France. The French press displays afresh the Anglo- phobiaâ€"opens the wounds inflicted at Waterloo and St, Helena, and talks defi- antly and in ambiguous phrases, of what may occur one day. The foreign policy of England is denounced as egotistical,- >antiâ€"liberal, and jealous. Everywhere French blOOCI is stirred, and England is I the object of the most scoruful allusions. ‘Ve apprehend no immediate mischief from this angry talk, but it is manifest that no real friendship exists between the two countries, and that at any moment heady rulers on either side of the chan- nel, may provoke a rupture. The French Government have found ; it necessary to give assurance to Belgium {and Pru>sia that there is no intention to extend the French frontiers on the north or east. These assurances, thonglrgiven in unequivocal terms,follow too closely on the Savoy felony, which was committed in violation of the most solemn promises, to be accepted by the distrusi‘tal powers to whom they are adoem Europe had never much faith in I.\.’ip0l20ll, and what little it bad, is gone' Spain has been made the theatre of at _...
