A Spasm or Sense.—The Manchester (England) Examiner of June 22d, says:
"Thus ends the career of one of the most notorious ships of modern times. Costly as has been her career to Federal commerce, she has been hardly less costly to this country,— She has sown a legacy of distrust and of future apprehension on both sides of the Atlantic: and happy will it be both for England and America, if with her, beneath the waters of the Channel, may be buried the memory of her career and the mischief she has done."
