Agitation.

The National Inteliigencer contends that as the
Southern party has been defeated twice in
Georgia, and once in Mississippi, and once in
Alabama, therefore, all further opposition to the
compromise ought to be abandoned.
The Intcllgencer is Wing organ. 1t forgets
that for three Presidential elections, from 1928
to 1886 inclusive, the Wing party was defeated.
But did that party then, or the InteHigencer, ac-
quiesce and renounce opposition? No--so far
from it, that they proceeded to organize in 1910
the most extraordinary agitation that the world
ever saw. Acquiesce in compromise indeed
Why, there was compromise in 1888, adopted
to prevent notification. That compromise the
Intelligencer was one of the most active in vio-
lating. Is not the InteHigencer a model preacher
of acquescence and of tranquility!
The Southern party does not forget that
seventeen years ago Abolition began: that il
was then, and for several years, so far from being
successful at an election, that it was mobbed
where it dared to hold meeting or print a pa
per. Now it dictates the government of the
country. 1t puts up and casts down parties, il
elects senators and governors. and turns then
out. Nay, it defes the laws of the land an(
tramples compromises in the dust. Adhere t.

The minister appointed to represent us in
Mexico, whose duty it was to guard vigilantly

mission, draws his 50 600 salary, and his $4,000

North and the South. and the vast power Of the
former not only to execute its own gigantic de-
signs, but to paraze the enterprises of this sec
ton of the Union.
Had this been Northern scheme, long before
this special plenipotentiary would have been
sent out, and the Secretary Of State, instead of
haranguing for the Presidency, would have de-
manded of Mexico the literal fulfhent of her

sY- The Republic of yesterday had returns
from the Georgia election, from which it claims

Foreign Trade.

The New York Dry Goods Reporter, few
days ago, contained an estimate of the imports
and exports of the United States for the year
ending June last. They amount to about two
hundred millions each, and are almost exactly
equal-the exports including some thirty odd
millions of specie.
According to this estimate we have contracted
no debt in England for that period. But this
can hardly be true. The credit Of the country
has been very high abroad, and interest in Eu-
rope is so much below the rate here, that as
matter of course there has been large aug
mentation of our foreign debt

had several narrow escapes. First he escaped
hanging by the mob at San Francisco, was sabse-
