Of mass Of ignorant, degraded foreigners,
wholly untitled, by the want Of education
and the social position they held at home,
from duly exercising the rights Of freemen
here.-Boston Courier.
A vast majority Of the emigrants to this
country are Germans. The charge that
they are Ignorant and 'uneducatsd' Is
entirely false and does injustice TO that
class Of ps9e|e Ibess "a lul s ee1 ter i
mans In fact Germany stands above all
other nations IN point Of education. It is as
uncommon to find person in Germany
who cannot read and write as it is to find
a person in this country without a shirt.
The Germans who came to this country
are as well educated as the common peo-
pie here. Il is ! rare thing to find one
who cannot write his name in German al
least. They are unaequainted with our
language and our manners and customs;
but tits stupendous nonsense for these fed
eralists to pretend that people are "igno-
rant" and not educated simply because
they have not knowledge Of our language
and our manners and customs. On this
principles cary these same federal dema-
gognes who are abusing foreigners, into o

would become ienoramuses, hardly capable
Of eating their breakfast. The Dutch,
French, Italians or any other nation Of .

that government has Ie6eived some inter-
estiae information from the oapotal of
Mexico to Vie sd Of August, and from
Vera Cruz to the 30th inclusive. !. Il is
said, from the capitol, that the new cabinet
is considered as opposed to the war; and
and, even if it were otherwise disposed, it
had not the means to carry on war; that
it is with the greatest difficulty it can
rSiae the means to defray its necessary
daily expense; and that the war excitement
is going down daily amongsll parties.
The accounts from Vera Cruz Of the
29th state that there has been retfogade
movement in regard to the invasion Of
fTexas-General Paredes absolutely refus-
ing to march with his forces (seven thou
sand troops) towards Texas; that he has
himself repaired to Mexico, and others
have followed his exampls. The opinion
was pretty well established at Vera Cruz,
that the Mexicans will never attempt to
cross the Rio Brazos; that they are with
out money, without credit, and consequent
" powerless; and that they are, moreover,
on the eve of revolution, which will
overturn the present government.
Accounts on the following day (the SOth
August) from Vera Cruz represent that
there can be no doubt Of a plan being near
| " ripe to overturn the present govern
ment; and that Gen. Paroles, with Tornel
and Valenci, propose forming triumvi-
rate. It is said that Gen. Paroles cares
nothing about federalism, but intended to
make himself dictator. ~
The French minister has actually asked
for his passport--the government having
refused to grant him the satisfaction he
demanded. News of the anticipated revo-
luton was expected every mail at Vera
Cruz.
Thus pass off the gasconades and bus
tiers Of Mexico! In what an elevated po-
sition does our country stand, in COMPARE
son with her; and our bold and prompt
administration, with its wise aution-
airy measures, compared wit hesitat
ing, discouraged, dispirited, lUbrgauised
and revolutionary army and officers O
Mexico!
These incidents in our foreign relations
are destined to have an. important and ex.
cellent influence upon our domestic pol

LIMOS.

LIMOS.
Whereas it has been represented TO me
that divers persons from Missouri an
Iowa Territory, threaten to invade tn
State for the purpose of taking part in the
civil war, which it is hoped, certain wicked
and disorderly persons will not be enabled
to continue to carry on in the county Of
Hancock;
Now therefore, Thomas Ford, Cover
nor Of the State of Illinois, do warn all
such persons, who will impudently thrust
themselves, into quarrel with which they
have nothing to do, as citizens of this State;
that if taken in any act Of war or mischief,
they will be chastised in most summary
manner; and if they escape beyond the
limits of this State, they will be demanded
to be surrendered 10 the authorities Of
Hancock county, that they may be tried for
their crimes and punished according to
law.
In testimony whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the Great Seal Of
the State to be affixed.
Done at Springfield, this twenty-sixth
day Of September in the year Of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and forty-ive,
| Il. ST. BY the Governor.

Two companies returned last evening,
one Of them bringing six, and the other
seven prisoners making about leo now
in custody. The examinations before the
Justice continue, and commitments are con-
stantly being made for participation in the
outrages in this county.
A portion of the force now in requisi-
ton are constantly securing the disafected
towns making such arrests as they can
The conspiracy which was contaminated
on the 9Th ult., has been so thoroughly
riddled, and every one directly implicated
SO completely exposed, and this being gen.
orally known, it is now difficult to find any
one who was engaged in the transaction.
They have either absconded or are effec-
tually secreted.
The landlords have embraced this oppor-
tunity to enforce the collection of black
rents. Yesterday small company Of
about 20'men made circuit through two
adjoining towns, and served between 30
and 40 distress warrants.
John Armstrong the proprietor Of an ex-

<sThe Interesting Trio"

The Hawkeye Of the 18th ult. Beg
pardon neighbour quill, we must begin where
we left.of. The Hawkeye, we say, at
tempts to get by our articles, on the creeds
Of the two political parties and the meas
ures which our party propose to carry out,
by sheer at the sstrio." Now, neighbor
quill, in order that you may apply your
t,oo heads to those articles, we will just in
form you that we wrote them all owself.
We know that the federalists are 10th
to meet the people, with the democracy,
on principles. Hence this berlesque about
the ''trio"" "a lawyer doctor and a Judge"
It is that the people may know where we
stand that we publish our creed and our
favorite measures. Whether they are sthe
result Of great minds or not, we tell our
neighbor quill that We shall ever, '"wiih
ardent longings" give "vent' to such prin-
ciples, and live and die with them. Yes
and more. If the federalists continue to
withhold their creed from the people and
refrain from meeting the democracy on
principles, we will publish them upon the
house tops" and compare them with our
own principles before the people. Prin-
ciples are what the people demand.
Dare the Hawkeye meet those articles,
without burlesque, and deny that the
"Federal Greed" which We published is
not substantially correct? Or will he con-
front the Democratic Greed" or the ia
yorite measures Of our party? To be sure
he viii not adopt them as the creed a
principles Of his party; if he does he win
bring tie proof WHEN his party advocated
those principles or measures, and be will
not parloin old democrats and call them fed
eralists Or any other name to prove it BY.
