The miners' express. (Dubuque, Iowa) 1849-1854, 1850-09-04

CHILDISH CoNDoLENCE.-Al letter Of condo
lence has been got up in Washington to Mrs.
Taylor, in which the features of her deceased
husband are aoritten out from biographical and
sentimental notices of the late President. The
sentimental part is in some 18 different languag-
es. This memento is no doubt both pretty and
ingenious, but we can conceive Of nothing more
childish and inappropriate. For school room
exercise it would be well; for maidens young
IDEAS Of loves first dream, it may be tolerated;
but for grave Senators and stale Representa-
tives to be identified with such hoyden elegan-
ces, surpasses folly. .rr

CLAIMS AGAINST PoRrUGAL.-Part of these
claims have been recognised as just by the Por-
tuguese ministry, and will be paid without a
murmur; but so much of the claims as relate to
the Gen. Armstrong will be paid under protest
ofits injustice.
The Portuguese Ministry have, it is said
warned our government, that should maratime
war break out, Portugal will be under the neces.
sity of closing her ports against us, if we hold
the doctrine that neutrals shall protect billige
rent seeking refuge in a neutral port
This is the question at issue in the present
controversy with Portugal; and if the United
States enforce what they claim as right, the
only recourse for Portugal is to shut us out r
time of war; 1t were far better that this ques
ton were otherwise decided, and for the honor
OF the United States, we trust it will be-
