The War in Tlie Steamship Africa lirfs-?arrived at Xev York from Liverpool, as will lie soon by refer iiiy to (lie telegraphic head, but as yet we havi no additional news of importance relative t< the serious state of affairs in China, a few dc tails of which are recounted in tire correspondence of thb London Times, as published ii ? another column. l'Yorn the information received by the Alps, it would seem that this wa 4 does trot iec?iu* the sanction of the* Britisl JK' people. In the Hob so of Conimons, Mr ' Cobden's motion condemning the war wa: ? carried against the ministry by a majority o ?16. This is a rebuke, whether right or wrung which the ministry will have to respect, am the ofders will nrobablv lie that Admiral Sev ? incur must stop bombarding and burning citie: down, because the government of Chiua refuse) to rtllow !b38Vereiguty and its laws to he treat red with irrespcct by foreigners. Sovereignty i.indispensable ko national existence, and every Sovereign nation is the best judge of what h v necessary to its own protection and its owi prosperity. The British people Jbegin^ tc entertain the same notion, and do not seem t?Tid"9lsposed to believe in the virtues o! , gunpowder as a civil iter *or promoter of Chris tianily, nor are they wiling to be invt . h: ^,.v in continual and expensive warfare with ' . nations, Qt the mere discretion of a cuft*?nan - der of the British fleet.. V This unnecessary and unauthorized war aga/ in*? the GfiftiR^-has toused the spirit and ha / ? tred--of tlje nation against all the foreign resi dents, and they have been obligeJ to arm themselves against assassination., so infuriat? ed have the people become. This feeling lia> extended even fat > the Malay settlements, as fat* as Singapore, belonging to the British, in v - the Southeaster 1 extremity of Asia, and must *" necessarily affect the interests of British commerce-and trade in that quarter of the world, r - ' is much easier to set mischief in operation t than it is to stop its progress, and fro in the determination of the Chinese to destroy their owu cities rather than submit to tire exactions of strangers, it is likely that the cost of the * present war to England will be something more loan lliawxti me powtier expcuaeu upon uio Chinese forts. ?

' The respect paid to tho dead, it has often been remarked, is a good criteriou by which to estimate the character of tho livingwe should be careful in this regard, lest we lose claim to the high character J. wc have held in the estimation of others abroad for hospitality and refinement.

We are afraid if the above test was ' strictly applied to us now. that we might fall below the standard.

We regret to seo that our esteemed friends of the Charleston Courier, have aniinadvsrted so fiercely upon j the charge 6f Judge Withers, nt the recent trial | tween Dr. Gibbes. of the South Carolinian, and Mayor j Arthur, of the Municipality^ Columbia, j We thought the charge of Judge W. to the Jury on that occasion, as we found it in the Carolinian, all that ! the most uncompromising latitudinalian of tho Press s could desire, and, judg ng from that, as well as from ( our knowledge of his character, iptelligeuce, and sound J judgment, we are forced to the conclusion that tho s | charges of " tho wayward onslaught of Judge W. on r theuowap.iper Press," contained in tho Courier of the i 2Sth inst , is unkind and u'tigMierous, co say tho least t of it, and must certainly have .prison from an entiro e misapprehension, on the part of the writer, of the Judge's language, and a total iguoranco of his true sentiments. Judge Withers is a man of too much t sagacity and intelligence to believe for a moment that s the Press does moro harm than good; we believe as r he does, and so ought every thinking man, that in - mauy-eases, in this our day, the newspaper Press ia j "an instrument rather of mischief than of good J1 but, ii upon tlie whole, the country is infinitely better with J it, than without it. Col. Jluxcy Gregg, in the defence i of the case mentioned, stated as a general proposition, - that the standard of the Tress in our country was ? lower than it ought to be, and that it was in many ^ cases the fruitful cause of mischief, and, excepting ~ the Tress of South Carolina, our country, thiongh its >, insirumenla'ity, had been injured by the unlitilhlulness and want of respectability and truthfulness on the part yf thoso who had assumed to govern or direct public sentiment through the channel of the Progs. Jn the course of his charge to the Jury, Judgo U Willierp took occasion to sustain the general proposi. 1' tiojj on ill- ''mischiefol the Tress," which Col. Gregg had suggested. iia exhibited frequently in these days ,of politick intrigue ;i.jJ di.-lionesty, yartieulnrly tho Pressed >ew Yorjj. Judge Withers is right in this view of the su!>ject~tho Tress, in too many instances, y j is a disgrace to our country, njjd those connected with Si tiiis honorable and responsible calling, have net t.n i?! frequently condescended !<> uo the dirty v\.nk of tinI . .,U (1 :!;ere!'v making j'. the rIv #- * \ i " >\ . > \ | I , licentiousness ,?nd error liave been allowed fo miii-p ! with the turbid wares of sectional jealousies ar d stiff!.If the Press at theXorth liad been true to itsjaiissH' wbat niiytit have been the condition of a.Tnir;jnowA is not bard to imng-ine. It is the low trucklirfc.jign ! tious Press of Free Soil ism and Black ItepubltawV'm at the North and North-west, that has lower# :he standard of journalism, and prostituted ono If the noblest end? and institutions of liberty, to rile/elijsh and dishonorable purposes This is So. Tin ''freedom of the press" has teen abused, and itsisacred ; ' rights and honor have been trampled in tb.c unit, j The senior editor of the Courier ought to hav learnj ed this lesson well by his experience during tie Inst Presidetdi.il canvass, in lis war of words vth the representatives of the Black Republican crc'i "fre then admired his valw and triumphs, nor are te now i disposed to quarrel with him for the love of ikiterely for his ' way ward onslaught" upon our distintiislied fellow citizen, but our motto is '"..W juslitia nt c&' lum." We have not been led to make these remarks hrongh . the least spirit of tinktndnc--s .o the Courier^t en, tcrtain tlie warmest feelings of friendship to^dsobr | esteemed coteir.porary, and desiro that such rintions should continue; nor are' we particularly solicious to appear as the champion of Judge Withers, orof any one.cl?e, but we have embraced the occasion, fid n<?w , simply assort that upon the general propositus cgpI tnined in tlio late charge of J udge Withers, ' I bia, we entirely agree, believing that whTTTTlie'a^ I has done, and is doing much good, and will doubter i contmuo to be of incalculable benefit to 'tho wq-Hi I jet, candour and common honest j? compels us toa'hil I that it tnaj.be. as it has been, miiile the veliicB of immense iiurrn; and whenever such is the ca%, it should be restrained or repu nlccl, albeit the tuoW sentimentality of. the " freedom of the Press," shoild seek to shield its hideous corruption and venakj from tlio inynrlia'1 *frutinj and just condemnation of ; an enlightened, liberal, and discriminating public sotiment. . I r t?ov. Geary's Reason for Rcsiguln; & . St. Touts, March 17-?The Democrat publishes :t statement, relative to the affairs tf Kansas, given by Governor Geary. Front. i{ it appeais that the cause of Governor Geary! r< sanation was t!io failure of President 1'iere to fiiili! the pledges made at the time of lis (Geary's) appointment. These pledges wee to suppoit him with an army of militia at tie expense of the. Public Treasury, if necessary; but instead ?f receiving this aid, ho huS pad $12,000 out of his own pocket?the Adtuittiit rat ion having refused military support undir the most urgent circumstances, while he wts tl?warned bv the Judiciary of the Territory ii every possible manner. The Governor states that fifty men were under oath, from the da. he entered the country till he left it, to as&avinale liitn provided his ulilicial conduct did not mi'ft their approbation. lie regrfets the step ha has been obliged to take, but fuels confident that bad the promised assistance been rendered, be could have admit: istered the affairs of the Territory in a manner acceptable to honest settlers of both sides. Tlie relation J.o the ojutiages committed by proslavery men, he says one half has not yet been told.

His version j.ff ^tbe^ Sherf^pl "say?! however.' that "the "account published t?h The Republican, over the signature of "Jonps," is a tissue of falsehood. The Governor'complains bitterly of the obstruction and mutilation of correspondence. He says the mail bags are constantly opened, and all objection able matter to or from him extracted. The Governor thinks the establishment of a Slavery constitution inevitable. Governor Geary's farewell address fo the people of Kansas is also published. It Is a sketch of the Governor's administration, setting forth the previous and present condition of the Territory, and recounting t!ie difficulties and embarrassments that have been thrown.in bis way. lie says the great body of tht people are conservative and law abiding people, and that they arc willing to make sacrifices./bi peace. The troubles in the territory, he continues, have been occasioned by ambitious schemers, with no special interest in the ten i lory's welfare?who ncrer desired peace, and who will not allow it to continue if they cai prevent it. ? ? ?
