BANQUET TO CArrAIN SANDS AND TIE OFFICERS
OF THK ST.. LAwRENcK.-We give in to-day's pa
Der a report Of the banquet which given by the
Common Council, on Saturday evening, to Captain
San Is and the officers of the ST. Lawrence, the
vessel which conveyed to Southampton the Ameri-
can goods for the Worlds Fair, in London.
Ii will beseen from the speeches that we're
made during the evening that the subject Of
American Intervention 10 European politics was
pretty broadly hnted at, and discussed. In
truth, this question is assuming very important
shape Il has not only been commented upon by
the press bat has penetrated the church, the bar
and the judiciary and is the tongue of every
be,ides. We DO no. see how it can be kept out Of
the Presidential election. Ii is a subject Of the
gravest Importance at the present time. 1t is
about TO be submitted to the American people,
whether they will preserve their negative neutrality
and non intervention in European matters, or whe-
ther they will AXE their ihaaenoe felt in that part
of the world in favor Of liberty and against despot
ism They must seon decide one way or the other.
The men Of the past age persist In saying that the
policy which was proper when we wefe people Of
only three millions-when we were recognized az
a member Of the family Of nations only by courtesy
when we we're distant FROM Europe six or eight
weeks. and our commerce amounted to but little
should be followed. y oung America holds op-
poste doctrine The young aud active Of the
present generation insist that the time has come
when the United states holds, in a great measure,
the destiny Of Europe in its hands snd when it
can, II II exercises 1T influence, dictate 70 both
England and France tae course which they shall
pursue in reference to the approaching struggle
between freedom and despotism, in conjunction with
her We are evidently the eve Of great events
Our foreign policy is assuming very important
form. A change in It is demanded, bat to what
extent we shall interfere in the affairs Of the old
world is not yet decided. We shall have something
TO say on this subject before long Our own opinion
j. that without firing gun, the United states,
England and France, possess the power to secure
fair Geld aud an open fight between freedom and
Absolutism. who can doubt the result Of such
struggle
Amosg the speakers at the banquet in question,
we're Messrs Raymond and Dana. These gentle
men are better speakers than writer's. But neither
one nor the other exactly c0mprehends what he IS
about. They are both driving at some thing aai
at scme body in the dark, bu; wha. il is or who il
is, they hardly know The great question Of
American policy towards Europe will however
soon be decided

DIVISION OF CALPoRNIA.-1he LAST podi0oel %

would seem to be favorable for the introduction Of
slavery rs un nderstood in our Southern States.
