Our columns of this morning are pretty well
filed with the Geographic details of the news re-
ceived at Boston, yesterday, by the steamship
Acadia.
The news Is of some importance.
Whilst the apprehended difficulty between
France and Austria is apparently settled, by the
reported acceptance by the latter power OF the
Anglo French mediation in the affairs of Italy, the
duchies of Schleswig and Holstein have refused
to acknowledge the armlstice agreed upon by
Denmark and Germany,-thus re-opening the
question of war between the Northern powers of
Europe. and placing peace on the Continent still
IN great doubt. In addition to this, fresh troubles
have broken out in the interior of France, and
among the leading men Paris, which threatens
the most fearful results to that republic.
The commercial intelligence is of the greatest

son was elected IN spite OF this journalism, and
before these anti-Amencan journals had time to
destroy and rain his prospects, and defeat has cleo
ton, as they certainly would have done had the
contest lasted longer.
In this brief statement of the policy and position
OF the leading wing journals in this metropolis,
perceive eli ment calculated TO work against
Gen. Taylor among the great body of the people
In the debatablc States, and calculated to aid in
the election Of Gen. Cass The influences which
surround these journals, in this city, are too pow
erful, too narrow, and too much under British
agency, mixed up with ingredients of percentage
and profit to be operated upon the present crisis
of the contest. Unless, therefore, the original
popular elements throughout the country, which
first nominated Gen. Taylor-unless the whole IN
dependent press, and men pervaded with the spirit
of American democracy and progress-unless they
come to The rescue, and counteract the malign
policy and pernicious course of the New York
wing journals, we should not be astonished to see
Gen. Taylor defeated in these debatable States,
upon which this election hangs. AS yet, there is
barely time to recover the lost and losing ground
We shall see, however, what the next few weeks
will bring about. If Gen. Taylor is destined to
lose this election, he will have been sacrificed by
the same narrow politicians and journals, by the
same vicious and anti-Amerlcan journalism, by the
same miserable policy which has so often sacri-
feed Henry Clay, and ruined his prospects for the
last quarter of century.
We have here disclosed the secret of Henry
Clay's failures heretofore, and now few weeks
will show how far the same causes will have ope-
rated in the case OF the Hero of Buena Vista.
