II is matter Of notoriety that the Amer.
lean consul at Paris has recently been the
theme of general discussion in the news
papers. We have already noticed the
subject, and should not now return to it,
but from what we deem a sense Of duty.
In the 10 rnqi Of Commsrce Of Friday last,
We see it formally announced that Mr..
WALSH is the author of the Paris letters
which have lately appeared in the columns
Of that paper, and which have excited so
general an expression Of disgust and in
dignation throughout the country, on ac-
count of their hostility to the cause of hui
man liberty for which thousands are now
laying down their lives in Europe. 1t is
true that tho statement Of the Journal af-
fords us no new information, for it was
before generally understood that Mr..
WALSH was the author of the letters in
question. But inasmuch as the above an
nouncemen is thus formally given, and
that, too, H. connexion with defence Of
Mr.. WALsH, we feel bound to give the
subject deliberate consideration.

We are now officially informed that we are to
have daily mail to Burlington, Dubuque, and Iowa
city Good MIR. Warren, for his exertions in
procuring mail facilities for the people of Iowa. de-
serves their thanks.''
The above is from the Dubuque Demo-
cratic Enquirer, and is most surprising
tribute from Locofoco journal to politi-
cal opponent. Commenting on the same
paragraph, the Dubuque Tribune states
that reaction has evidently begun in the
masses of the Opposition party Of Iowa,
and that there are among the intelligent a
conviction and confession that the appoint
ment of the Second Assistant Postmaster
General was proper and judicious. This
circumstance accounts for the alteration Of
the tone of the organs Of the party in that
section of the country.

THE REPU BLIC.

creed. 1t is evidently written upon DELHI
Grafton. He has heard the complaints
made in this country against him, and he
tells the sovereign people that he is in ia
vor of Nicholas, the despot, the despoiler
of Poland--the arch-enemy of liberty
throughout the world. Nor is this all.
Even the present restraints upon the press
in France, sitting the voice of liberty and
truth, do not satisfy him; he evidently
wishes more stringent measures than these.
After this, it seems to US that comment is
a waste of words.
