Demoralization ok tub Chivalry. The war is niunifeiLng its demoralizing cU'ecta upon Southern men in a marked way. In our last accounts from Malamiiras it is slated that a nephew of Governor Vance, of North Carolina, had been arrested for highwuy robbery com mitted nenr that ci;y. Ho holds a commission in the rebel army, unci had been sent over from lirownsville. with n pass from Colonel Ford, to obtain supplies. During his leave of nbsriico he thought he would do n etrokOuf business on his owu account, and accordingly associated himself with a ,baud of thieves, who stopped the-slage from Malntnorns lo the mouth of Ihe river uud pillaged the passengers. There is every probability that he will swing fur this want of dl.-eriminatioii between guerrilla prac tices in hostile and friendly territory. Such is tlie condition of, principle and feeling to which Ihe chivalry are being brought by the war. Let it last but a couple ol years longer nnd they will all become as dead 10 honorable feel ing and shaiiio n this Caption Vance. N. Y. Herald, Dec. 94.

At Ihe banquet given by the authoritiea of the city of Boston to Captain Witmlow and the nllicera of llie Kearsarge, on the 14th Novetn her. Mr. Everett being oalled npen to respond to thu tou-t in honor of the President, in 11 do a speech from which we take the following strik ing passage ; Hut I would not liavo It inferred from these remarks, that the President nl the United Slates, in whose honor you Imva proposed the toast to which yon have culled ine to resuond, is entitled to this mark of respect only in his ofliciol capacity. Now that llio stfngglo ia past, I am eure that 110 liberal-minded person, how ever opposed to h'tiii politically, (and you know, sir, that I belong to " the President's opposi tion.") will be unwilling that, in performing the duly yon have devolved upon 1110, I should any that I recogiiizn in him ft full measurenf the qualities which entitle him to Ike personul re spect of the people, w ho have just given him a proof of their confidence, not extended to any of his predecessors in lilts generation. It ia uo small proof of this, that he has passed through the fiery ordeal nf the present canvass, and stood the storm of detraction from hundreds of vigorous and hostile presses, an'. had to little suid against him (I speak now of prsonal qual ities) which deserves even un answer. Tin re Is tin nun of his predecursnrs, not even Wash ington, of whom as many uud as reproachful things have not been said, unless, perhaps, it hu .Mr. Monroe, who hud Ihe happiness to fall upon " thu era of good feeling," nnd who was. in no line quality, either as a man or a Presi dent, superior to Mr. Lincoln. The President gave ample proof of his intellectual capacity when be contested a seat in Ihe Senate of the United Slates wilh Judge Dotiglns. When I silt in tin1 Semite wilh Judge Douglas, I thought hill), fur business and debute, lite equal uf the uhlest in that budy ; but his speeches in Ihe senatorial cativasni were in no respect cqutil to Mr. Lincoln's. I believe the President to be entirely cnnscieiilious in the discharge of his high trust, ami that, under circumstance nl unparalleled dilliculty, he has administered the Government wilh llio deepest sense of respon sibility to his country and his God. Hu is em inently kind hearted. I nil) sure he spoke the irulh, the other day, when he snid that he btid never willingly planted a thorn in any man's hosoiii. lie is 11110 of tho most laborious and indefatigable men in the country, and lhiit he hus been able tu sustain himself under as great a load of care as was ever laid upon tho head or the heart ot a living man, is in nn ennill do gree awing to thu foot (hat the vindicative mid angry passions form nn art of bis nature, and that a kindly and playful spirit mingles its sweetness yvith the austere cup of publio duly. It may seem hardly worjh while to notice the descriptions which represent, tho President aa a person of uncouth uppcurunce and man ners. Hut as Mr. Hurlteilid not think it out of pluce. in the most magnificent discourse in llie English language, to comment on Ihe appear ance, milliners and conversation of the exiled French princes, I will take thu liberty to any that on tho only social nccaaiun on which I ever had the honor to be iu the Presidt nt'a coin puny, viz: the coinmemorntiou at Gettysburg, he sut nt I11I1I0 ut the house of my friend, David Wills, Kvq., by the tide of several distinguished per sons, Indies and gentlemen, foreigners and Amerrcaiis, among them thu French Minister nt Washington, since appointed French Am Inssudor at Madrid, ami the AdiAirul of the French fleet, uud that, iu geiitlemnulv appear ance, innnn, rs and conversation, he was the peer of any man at the table. The most important objection urged again. 1 Mr. Lincoln is, that personally he lacka fixed ness of purpose, and that his Cubiilet and Ad ministration have wanted unity of coiiiihjI. I think 1 ehnll nlleiid 110 candid opponent (I cer tainly am 110 parlisnn myself) if 1 remind you Hint precisely the Same charge, on the same grounds, might be brought ngaiimt George Washington and his Adtninialration.

Mr Monroe, though elected hitus II by an nl un iiiiniiimous vote, alluwcd his Cabinet lo contain three rival candidates for Ihe succession who dili'ered radically on almost i-virv public question. It rarely happens iu popular Gov ernment, Ihnt any oilier course is practicable iu dillicuit tunes. In England, where the theory and practice of parliamentary govern ment I, live been maturing for nges. there lias seldom been a cabinet in which llje same din aiib me haa not existed.
