occurred at Costa Rice, but Of the particulars d

from Costa Rica gave reason to expect that the
next account would bring intelligence OF an out.

such matters, that in the late negotiations between
Nicaragua and Mr. squier, the American charge
Don Jose NJ. de Castro. the Governor Of Costa

the English government, and was aiding the En-.

that the disturbance" reported by the Captain o.

That Messrs. VIM. p. Robson, Adam Lee, Pc
ter Cooper, and Edwin Post be appointed delegates
on behalf of the State of New Jersey TO attend the
Tariff Convention, 70 be held nj Pittsburg on the
2lst inst and that they have power 10 add 10 their
number, and appoint substitutes in case OF their
inability 10 attend"
These resolutions fairly express the prevailing
feeling in New Jersey on the subject. The fifth
comprehcnds the truth in relation it, it is held
by the friends of home industry here and through
out the country; and we glad TO add that the
convention adopted further measures TO promote
the cause by the appointment of committee of
correspondence, consisting of Messrs Post, Rich
ards Green, Hewitt and Travors
Complaints of the operation of the tariff as it now
stands are raised in nearly every part of the coun
try and from the producing classes nearly every
description. Our readers are already but too ia
miliar with its deadly effects upon the iron inter
est; and who claims 10 be the oldest living
manufacturer of woolens in the United States
having conducted the business at Bloomfield from
1912 TO 1925, and since in New England-wrtes
that during the whole of this period of near forty
years, he has witnessed no such fluctuations i'll the
trade have occurred within the last three or
since the introduction of the tariff of 1916 We
have assurances from Washington that the whole
subject will be fairly brought before Congress by
the cabinet and the people should corroborate its
efforts to produce the all important revision of this
wretchcd system of revenue.

The Foreign Organ.

The Washington Union, conscious of the odiun
which the name il has labored so hard 10 earn Is
calculated 10 produce grayely tells its readers that
il has sever sustained the cause of the country III
every controversy with foreign powers" Those
who have been in the habit OF reading the Union
for the last six months, know that this assertion Ii
unsustained by single fact So far from this, not
one single subject Of controversy has in that time
arisen, between this Government and any other in
which its whole weight such as il Isl has not been
thrown into the scale OF the foreigner. When a
foreign minister attempted to violate the laws OF
the United States by fitting out an armed vessel IN
our ports 10 cruise against friendly power the
Government was denounced for sustaining the law,
and preventing the violation of our neutrality
When foreigner, charged with political offence,
was kidnapped by the captain general OF Cuoa,
and our President sought redress for the gross out
rage TO soil, this so-called organ OF the Denoc
racy was found arraycd on the slde OF SPAIN
When NJ Poussin offered direct insult To our
Government he was chccrcd and supported by tins
organ. We were told that Louis Napoleon
would take vengeance for the dismissal OF his MN
lister, had before been assured that the dc-
mnnd of Rev restitution would involve Ms III war
with Spain. Ii has been publicly announced that
the new French minister will reopen the negotia-
tons relative to the Eugenic Yet the Union still
persists in pronouncing against its own Govern
ment and, if it can help it, will not allow the
French minister to settle the matter except on his
own terms, though Mr.. Clifford (Nlr. Folks minis
ter TO Mexico) and Mr. Mason (his Secretary of the
Navy commended the conduct of Commander
Carpenter The affair OF Porte is also to be re-
opened yet in advance of the new negotiations,
the Union sides with the French minister, and con-
dennis Colonel Childs, the court-martial, General
Scott, and Secretary Marcy, who approved of the
whole proceedings In both these cases, yet to be
decided, the Union has taken sides openly with the
foreigner
And yet sit has ever sustained the country, in
every controversy with foreign power!"' Has the
foreign organ no shame left? Does it think that
the public is absolutely blind Uneasy, as it must
be- the odious position in which il is placed, does
=, HpnIr hat he yyh IL al rs
having, on all possible occasions taken sides with
the foreigner? And since il was not ashamed of
the deed, is it now ashamed of the reputation If
il had not hrmness enough to avoid disgraceful
action ought it not if il consults its own peace Of
mind, get rid as soon as possible of the feelings
which prompt il TO be ashamed of it
But ashamed or not, il cannot cast its name. Ii
will stick to il long il exists. The 'fForeign
Organ'' Ii has earned the title and wish it Joy
of the result of its patriotic labors.-R Richmond

The new French NIinistry.

The new ministry of France, as we
learn from the letter of NJ. GAmLARDET,
is likely to satisfy neither the majority
nor the minority Of the legislative assem-
bly,, nor the country. The editor of the
Courier des Flats UniS says that it will
be called, not the Hautpoul ministry, but
the Bonaparte ministry.
General D'HAUTPoUL, the minister of
war, as we learn from the National, was
one of the fayortes OF the Duke d'Angou-
leme. He was named superintendent of
the administration of war by Bourmont, in
April, 1880, three months before the revolu-
ton of that year. For five years he pouted
at Louis Philippe but, being tired of not
receiving the full pay Of his grade, he be-
came reconciled to the new regime, and
has since entertained thoroughly legitimist
opinions.
NJ. FoULD, minister of finance, is a
ianatica partisan of high imposts, and
clamorous against any reduction or modi-
fcation of them. From the terms of his
message, it is argued that M. BoNAPARTE
has selected him as the exponent of his
politico- financial views and that the
| President is in favor of the maintenance
and establishment of the most iniqui-
tous, vexatlous and odious taxes.
NJ. PARREU, minister Of public instruc.
ton, was some years ago a legitimist.
! The revolution of 1S4S found him an adj
vocate at the bar Of Rom. All of a sud.
den he dropped his royaist opinions, went
to Cantal, his native province, and was
nominated as a red-hot republican for the
Constituent Assembly. He is described
as man who speaks little, but thinks a
great deal-for himself and his own inter
ests. NJ. BoNAPARTE is said to have
placed him in the ministry because ht
knew his political insignifcance, and hi!
desire to become something.
NJ. RoUHER, minister Of justice, was
also an advocate Of the bar of Rom. HI
was a candidate of the Guizot party at thu
last election of the monarchy. Ate
February he played the republican, anc
