The Nashville Gazette of the esd ut winds |
up Il column of remarks 1.-THE courtesy of
which we acknowledge with pleasure and
thanks,) with the following paragraph
We could now give many reasons which would 90
Ia shew that the Enquirer ia the opinion that
Gcn jackson stands chance of being elected"
but WI, deter them until manifestation of the sen
thenis al the people Of the State OF Alabama, aud
the southern counties of Kentucky now in progress,
arc belore the publ.c W. delay--because IL will be
more eteciual TO deal ON facts hei ealieI than on
'nierences now. On one point, however, IT ihei e
Is no ndclicacy in the question, should he pleas
ed 10 have the opinion of the editor OF the Enquirer
- In I'll. event iha, the contest for The next Pe-,-
dency settles Gen. Andrew Jackson amd j. @
Adams, which of these men will Virginia support
1t is really out of our power To give any
opinion this quesiion.-It is one of those
cases which has never entered into our imagi-
nation. A contest between Messrs. j. s. a. is
one of those moves on The political chess
hoard, which we have never conceived-nev
er heard newfoundland on which, we are
utterly at loss FOR the means to form an
opinion.
| An article in the last Philadelphia Press
| states that the three commissioners from The
Republic of ST. Salvador had reached that CT
| ty from Bosten that they are the bearers OF
dispatches tn our government requesting TO he
admitted as n State into The Union, if consist
ent with the principles ofour constitution and
| II this proposition be declined, 10 form close
and friendly alliance with the u. $. The in
dependence of this republic was recognized by
The Mexican Congress previous to lturhide's
| downfall, and was proclaimed on the olst of
September 1891. After his usurpation he
pronounced all the acts Of the Mexican Con
grcss void, and marched another strong army
on St Salvador. His designs were arrested
by the Revolution, which FRUSTRATED his own
throne. Ton the st June, Col. j. Castillo left
Philadelphia for the city of Mexico, with spe-
cial instructions 10 have the decree of the
Mexican Congress c"nfrmed.) On the 22d
Nov. 1899, the Congress of ST. S. declared
the Republic 10 be one of the confederate
provinces of the u. States of North America.
This republic is represented AS extending from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, having two seaports
on each ocean the whole republic containing
about 100000 souls, rich in mines, and in the
products of the earth-the capital city, Saint
Salvador, containing more than 10000 inhah-
itants.-lts clear, that the interests of the
U. ). will not permit us TO add 10 the Union
a territory SO far separated from our bounda-
ries-but we trust, that the ministers will he
treated with all that kindness and distinction
which s" courteous and complimentary Il
proposition deserves.

these the strings on which Mcssrs Walsh and
