PORTRAIT OF A STATESMAN.'

SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF CLEMENS WENZEL 10
THAR PRINCE OF METTERNICH-(pro pronounced Met
terrck)
This distinguished statesman, whose name ap-
pears for more than quarter of century in all the
affairs Of state connected with the Austrian empire,
was born at Koblcnz, on the Rhine, the 18th May,
l773. He descended from ancient Rhenlsh dy-
nasty, from which sprung many renowned men.
After completing his studies at Stresburg and May
ence, on the Rhine, shc visited England, thence
Vienna, which latter city he made his residence.
He soon entered upon his diplomatic career as min
lister to the Hague and married, in 1895, the Coun-
tess Eleonore Won Kaunitz. Shortly after, he was
appointed minister to Wcstphaa, at the Congress OF
Rasiadt.
In 1901 he was Austrian minister at Dresden in
1904, at BerIin when, by his inerposition and ad.
vice. the treaty Of Potsdam, Of Both November,
1905, was concluded, by which Austria, Russia, and
Prussia bound themselves TO arm against Napo-
Icons gigantic plans In 1906 Count Metternich
was ambassador at the French court and negotiated
the treaty Of Fontainbleau 10Th December 1907 In
l6O9 having been refused passports at Paris he
notwithstanding succeeded in reaching the encamP.
ment of the Emperor Of Austria at Komorn, in
Hungary, a short time before the battle OF Wa
gram. He was then made minister Of state On
the 9Th October, same year, he was raised to the
Office Of minister Of foreign affairs, IN which ca
pscity he negotiated with the French minister

STATE OF MISSISSIPPI.

A letter has been received from Jackson, Mis-.
sssippi, stating that there was a democratic eau.
Gus held on the night OF the 7th instant, to nomi-
After excitement the two-thirds rule was adopt
ed which, it is said, will insure the election of the
who have been nominated, even if the third should
go off with the wings. But this will not be the
case; for the nominations were confirmed in the
caucus unanimous. For the six years term, to
take place in March, lS47, Gen. Foote had on the
first ballot lS votes, MeNuu 81, Qui'man l6,
Thompson Is, Brown 9, and Barton S. Every
man voted as he pleased, without any previous
nomination of candidates. Mr.. McNu't never OF
tanned more than % votes. On the 7lh ballot,
Foote received SO votes, which was just two.thirds,
and McNuu 10 votes.
The caucus then adjourned over to meet again on
the night of the Sth for the purpose of selecting
candidate to fill the unexpires term Of r. J. Walk
er, esq. Upon balloting for this residuary term,
J. w. Chalmers, esq, the present appontee Of the
governor of Mississippi, received 60 votes-scatter
ing II votes. The election was to take place on
that the two nominees would be elected. Judge Chal-
had declared little before he left the State, that
in event would he consent to be candidate, and
it was objected to him in the caucus that he would
not consent to serve if elected. But his great popu-
larity triumphed over all objections, and we cannot
doubt that the compliment he has received at the
hands Of the democracy of his adopted State will in
duce him to accept the honor conferred upon him.
Gen. Foote, who is probably elected for the new
term from ls47, is the early and fast friend of Polk
and Dallas, Texas and Oregon.

INDIANA STATE DEBT.

On the 18th inst, the bill commonly called the
"Buter BILL" providing for the payment Of interest
in full on the debt of the State of Indiana-partly
in cash, and partly by sequesraon of the proceeds
of her Central Canal and canal lands-passed the
House of Representatives by vote of 81 to 80. If
this bill pass the Senate aso-of which, judging from
the above vote, there would seem to be strong pro-
bability-then will the State of Indiana stand relieved
before the world, from everything like the impu,a-
ton Of defalcation, or even desire to delay the
settlement Of her just debts.

Mr.. Joseph R. Ingersol of Phiadel pha, has Of

think fit, to open negotiation with Great Britain
for the purpose Of terminating, by mutual consent,
the convention Of August, 1927. The New York
Journal Of Commerce, in commenting upon this,
takes the occasion to draw contrast between this
gentleman and his brother Mr. Charles J. lngersoll,
chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, in
which the editor is pleased to say that "Charles J.
is flaming democrat-Joseph X. is a whig" and
of the two propositions advocated by these gentle
men, he says ''The object to be accomplished is the
same in both cases; but in one, the Of reach

respectful and gentlemanly."
TO our mind, this is most remarkable dstinc-
ton One of the articles of the convention Of 1927
provides that either party may, by giving year 3
notice, terminate the joint occupation; and there liz
nothing in the whole agreement which intimates
that the &C Of giving the notice by the one party
will be considered crude and indecorous" by the
other. The discovery of such construction was
reserved for the ingenuity Of wiser man than eth
er Of those who conducted that negotiation Doubt
less then never dreamed that legitimate action under
any article of that treaty would be crude and indec-
orous;" and are very much inclined to the opin-
ion, that the most Of the opposition raised now, is
no, SO much to the thing itself as to the men by
whom it is proposed. The one is "a flaming dem
ocrat" and the other lis whig;" and in that is the
difference.
In our humble judgment, nothing can be more
absurd and ridiculous than to open negotiation to
do, by mutual consent, that which, according to en-
press and already eristing stipualions between the
two parties, may be done by either. It's in effect,
sa wing to England, we know that have certain
rights under The articles Of the convention of 1897,
and we nre now disposed to exercise them, but we
fear that in doing so.we may incur your dispea-
