SOUTH CAROLINA COLLEGE.

dHut x1LtcTnNt f-uTItHI'
We call attention TO some extracts from an
article in the Charleston Mercury, on the
South Carolina College, which will be found
on our frs. page. Weregret that from: its great
length, we cannot publish it entire. 1t is not
our purpose, 10 express our unqualified appro-
baton of all the arrangements Of the College; I;
but as simple act of justice to the Faculty,
we will state few facts. The most popular
of all the objections perhaps is, the want Of
proper discipline. To keep number of young
men in subordinatiou, TO maintain a due res
pect for the laws, has always been regarded as
a most difficult problem; and if the present
Faculty Of the S.Carolina College have failed,
theirs has been the common destiny. But from
all we know and believe, their success has been
fully equal to that of any former Faculty, and
will compare most favorably, with that OF any
Literary Institution of our country. Dlsmis-
sing all reasoning on the matter, and comparl-
sons, which might seem invldious, we will
state few facts, which apply peculiarly to
the present Faculty, as they are without prece'
dent, we believe, in the College. These are
disciplinary acts, and if any ingenious fea.

FOREIGN NEWS.
From the Ne,o Orleans Bulletin

From the last advices, received by way
of Pensacola from Vera Cruz, it would
seem likely that Mexico will have more
than one quarrel on hand at a lime 10
settle. The proceedings Of the French
Minister, in demanding bis passports.
cvinces a determination on the part ot. his
government to proceed to extremities.
France now has heavy claims for indem-
ity to her citizens roboed and naltreated
by the Mexican authorities. Alter The
bombardment aud capture of San Juan
d'Ulloa, several years ago. there was
settlement for the injuries and spollatlons
committed 10 that date. But since the
last treaty on the subject, negotiated under
the mediation OF Great Britain, Mexico has
up new score that throws her heavily in
debt 10 rigorous creditor, The fact is,
that the Mexirans were greatly irritated,
and felt sore under the rough treatment
thoy received at the hands of France.
They were chasrined al the idea ofbeing
forced 10 pay just debt under the bate
ries Of an armed squadron. Hence they
have ever since entertained secret ami
mostly against the French, aod whenever
opportunity was presented this spite was
sure to be manifested. In consequence,
Frenchmen living within the Mexican
territories, are subjected to frequent exac-
tions aud indignties. Flagrant instances
are related of the rapine, violence and in
science offered 10 their property aud per-
sons. If our recollection serves US Alright,
several Frenchmen have been, within
the last year, publicly shot and executed
under some false pretext or other, and no
satiIaction has vel been made for the MUIR
der. In this way has cowardly animos-
" wreaked its vengeance on few isola-
tel anl bel ! ss individuals. Al last The
popular fury did not spare even the
French Minister, the representative Of The
Governments dignity, whose person, by
the law of nations is ever held sacred.
He was set upon in the public streets by
an enrased mob, aud after suffering marks
OF violence on his person, and the grossest
indguiies. narrowly escaped with his
life. 1t is the refusal of'he Mexican au-
thorilies 10 render satisfaction for this last
and highest affront. that has provoked.
France to assume menacing attitude.
No doubt there is something serious 10 the
movement. Mexico will mol be let off
till the uttermost farhiug is paid. Be-
tween France and the United States,
Mexico will find herself pressed by credi
tors, armed with power on there side as
well as justice.
