We have Northern newspapers of dates ai late as October 28, from which we make a summary: EUROPEAN INTERVENTION FRANCE AND ENGLAND .TO DEMAND AN ARMISTICE SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS TO LORD LTON8 ON TBO SUBJECT?THE CONFEDERACY TO BE RECOGNIZED IF MEDIATION IS REJECTED. The most interesting sad important intellj go nee froar-the North is oontained in the fob lowing paragraph, which we find in the New York 2?xpre*8, of the evening of the 26th inst., the most trustworthy, it may be remarked, oj all the Northern journals: Reliable information has been received in this city, from semi-official sources in Europe, that England and France are of entire accord in regard to their line of conduct towards this Government Lord Lyons, who was to have returned ts the United States in the Australasian, was detained at the last moment by order of Lord John Russeil, Her Majesty's Secretary of Foreign Affairs, to await further instructions in consequence of the President's Abolition Proclamation. His Lordship's departure was then fixed for October 26th (last Saturday,) and on his arrival at Washington he will positively inform Seward of the programme decided upon by the European Powers. Instructions similar to those of the British Minister will bo forwarded to Count Mercier, the Fiench Minister at Washington, with the same steamer which will bring tho English Minister back to the country. We are also given to understand that our Government will soon be informed that England and France had deeided upon the recognition of the Southern Confederacy, if the joint offer* of mediation and armistice to be proposed to Mf Seward, arc not accepted. - At any rate, this Government will be duly notified of the intentions of England and France in this respect, and as these Powers are fully aware that any offcrof mediation on the basis of Scperation, will net for an instant even be listened to by our Government, united endeavors will then be made by all the European Ambassadors in Washington to obtain an armistice of four or six months between the North and South. These foreign Governments are under the impression that if once a cessation of hostilities can be effected, a calmer spirit will succeed, which will enable the two sections to negotiate. The utmost endeavors will bo raado shortly after Lord Lyons return to Washington, by the whole corps diplomatique at Washington* to bring about such an armistice.?Only, then, when all these offers of mediation and armistice shall have proved of no avail, vill the South be recognized simultaneously by England and France. Aside from the fact that these Powers would now look upon the South as a de facto Government, they fear that an insurrection in the South as a consequence of the late proclamation will take place after the 1st of January; and hence in order to afford protection to their own citizens residing there, are compelled to grant protecting power to their agents in the several Southern cities, which, as things stand just now, they do not possess. They fear that the Confederate Government, unrecognized as it is, may at any time tell their Consuls in Charleston, Richmond, Savannah, and elsewhere, that there is no diplomatic relation existing between the Confederacy and Europe, and can therefore not permit them to act in a consider capacity. It is to guard against such an emergency, and to afford their own citizens residing in the south ample protection under the segis of their regularly appointed agents, that England and France will claim the necersity of recognizing the new Confederacy, Thk uwquitous George.?The Fredericksburg iVeiw of October 28 says: Geo. N, Saunders, late Commissioner to Europe, who smug' gled himself into Canada, has returned to Richmond, and brings intelligence of an early recognition of the Confederacy by the powers of Europe. I ' >'', y; y " ' 1 '* m W1 I ' WW ' Mr Cwift DAY, NOVEMBER 7, 18< ' , , The ElecllfHi, v In the New York Herald of the 21st instant, y we find the following under the editorial head: I A. ,L. ?- - - - xib iue ejection returns come to ft and tlic overthrow of the Republican party at the polls appears to be more overwhelming. It is, in ' Jact, the greatest political revolution that over 1 took place in the country, not excepting even ' mat in Jackson's time, and at the election of Harrison. In Penbsylvania the State ticket is parried by the Democracy, and the popular, S Branch of the State Legislature to such an extent as to secure a majority on joint ballot, so > that the defeat of Wilmot for another term f in the United States Senate is a foregone conclusion. To squelch the author of the frcesoil proviso, which has had so much to do with tho i calamities of the nation, is a blow struck in the right place?a retribution which harmonizes > with the fitness of things. Grow is. also fortu*1 ftately numbered with the defunct. Thaddeus Stevens would.have i^so shared the same fate, had not Mr. Buchanan and the sympathizers with secession appeared as his prominent opponents. The revolution in Ohio is still more extraordinary. Tho Democratic majority in that State is eighteen thousand?being a gain of fifty thousand. Among the defeated is Bingham; and the notorious Wade has not the ghost of a chance of re-election to tho United States Senate?another just retribution, over which the friends of law and order and of constitutional rights will rejoice everywhere throuhout the land. In Indiana the Democrats eloctcd the State ticket and a majority of both houses of the Legislature, which will give a Democratic Senator for the vacancy caused by the expulsion of Bright. It is only in Iowa that the Republicans have held their ground, because, fiom the distance of that State, political light reaches it more slowly, and because ' Iito iLuuvici is muro uiHtuiit irom me scat Of war. 1 The strength, volume and rapidity of the popular current will be indicated still more i clearly in November, when tho elections in New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Michigant Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Massachusetts will take place.?There can be little doubt that at1 I least New York, New Jersey and Illinois will follow the example of Pennsylvania. Ohio and I Indiana; and we would not be surprised to sec even old Massachusetts reject Andrew for Governor, and elect such a State Legislature as will : send Sumner to the tomb of Capulets. It is beyond a question that the next Congress will be Democratic, and that there will be a clear conservative majority against the Republican party. Is it not time for Mr. Secretary Stanton to be moving again in the work of arresting heretical Democrats? He must begin this work at or.ee, and not confine it to such intractables as Horatio Seymour and Fernando Wood, but shut up in Fort Lafayette three hundred and fifty thousand Democrats, or they will seize the State of New York in November. The Pre 88.?The Richmond Enquirir speaking of the common notion that everybody has a right to publish what he pleases, at the publisher's expense and not his own, says, very forcibly: The press is only free to its editors, and to those whom its editors believe to- have good ground for addressing the public, and something to say which the public has an interest in hearing. We would recommend those who labor under this mistake to consider the following fact: that newspapers are made for the large class who read, and not for. the small class who want to write. The idea that when a man subscribes for a newspaper, he lays its proprietor under some obligation, or that he has a right to publish his communications therein with the single proviso that they shall be unoffensive, is a popular fancy and a most ridiculous mistake, which onght to be corrected. Not only has he no such right, bnt the editor who permits him to pot uninteresting matter in his columns infringes upon the rights of four or five thousand other peent* to gratify the one individual* Very few editors act so absurdly.

In an article ridiculing the Warrior as a specimen of English iron-clads, and comparing her with tlioso of the United States the New York Herald bays: But the Nrvj Department have prepared guns far more powerful than the famous elevenilich. The "Paawiift last Mnnilo? ?*? ? -w IVVVtTlAI IftlllV ber massive turret a fifteen-inch Dahlgren, a magnificent smooth-bore gun, weighing 42,200 .pounds?by far the largest gun afloat. The whole of our Monitor fleet will be armed-with. this tremendous ordnance. How will the Warrior, with her four and a half inch armor plating, come out of a contest with our ironclads thus armed? The fifteen-inch shot, with a moderate charge, will not only pierce, but shatter, the slight Warrior armor. Tho great ship, then, will have to depend on her superior speed fer safety. But in a contest with our largest iron-clads, of the Dictator type, which carry relatively a greater motive power than any ship ever built, flight will not avail. These , ships, moreover, have side armor of ten and a half inches thick, with four feet backing of oak, while the turrets are fifteen inches thick, composed of plates and forged slabs. There are substantial reasons for believing that the Dictator will prove a dictator. uThe Pfack Proposals a Forgery."?The Herald's Washington letter thus disposes of - ** the peace proposal said to have been made by \ General Lee to the Yankee Government: * * It is now definitely ascertained that the alleged "peace proposals," said to have been made by Gen. Lee to our Government, during the first days of the invasion of Maryland, and about which so many rumors have recently been in circulation, are nothing but an ingenious forgery?most probably the work of some stock speculator who was seeking "operato for a rise. That such proposals were believed to have been received here there is abundant evidence, not merely in tho press of the North bat in that of the South, the Savannah Republican and Charleston Mercury, having made copious allusions to the subject. From these facts, and other evidence attending the receipt of tho documents by the Secretary of State, there is no doubt that the whole thing is a hoax, played by some officer in the rebel army, perhaps by way of a "feeler" for Northern sentiment. But that tho thing itself is a forgery is made manifest, both by certain blundees which the rebel general could not possibly have committed, and also by a comparison of his pretended signature with the old signatures on file iu the War Department A Frightful Accident.?A frightful accident occurred a few days siuce, on the mountain road, near Warner'* Farmr A tm y ?- J.W. ? * V..J. AA 111 mu U1 Federal army wagons going np the long and narrow cut on the Eastern side of the mountain, was met by a train coming down. The mules in the down drain took fright, and, becoming nnmanageble, dashed down the mountain at a # frightful speed, and crowding the up train off the road, hurled the wagons, mules and drivers over a steep rocky precipice of a perpendicular height varying from fifty to one hundred feet. Over and over rolled the great wagons and teams, crashing and crushing, and breaking, into fragments, and tearing to pieces until the whole train lay at the foot, and scattered along the side of the mountain, a mass of frightful ruin. , BLANTON DUNCAN, COLUMBIA, ......
