FOreIgM Minister of England.

Regarding the removal of Lord PALMER
sToN from the Foreign Office of England as
an event lraught with importance to every
country Interested in the advancement of con
stltutlona freedom, we publish in another
| column birds eye view of the various express
sions of opinion to which it has given rise on
the part of the London press. The tone which
appears to have pervaded the comments Of all
the leading organs of public opinion affords the
strongest evidence Of the anXiety-not to say
alarm--that is felt in consequence of the occur
renee. The Times, true to its vocation as the
apologist of absolutsm, of course rejoces at the
change; but, with this single and significant
exception, the London daily press is unan-
imons in its condemnation of what is consid-
cred to be the abandonment by the English
ministry of the liberal position which Lord
PALMERsToN has, for long series of years,
maintained in relation to European politics.
The radical Daily .Ne,cs, the moderately
conservative Morning Chronicle, and the ultra
tory Post and Standard are for once agreed in
their appreciation of the necessity Of resisting
Russo Austrian influences, and their conviction
that England is now deprived of the services
OF the man, more than all others, qualified by
ability and experience to guide the vessel of
State through impending dangers. Nothing
less than strong emergency could elicit such
testimony from journalists whose party associ-
ations have hitherto been antagonstc to the
retired minister. They evidently discern
rocks ahead.

Returning REASON.

Contemplating the possibility of a war be
tween the combined powers of Europe and Eng
land, the New York Times remarks:
''In such it would, doubtless, be our in.
terest and our right to preserve neutrality. But
the age of miracles must return before the Ameri-
can people could remain Indifferent to the issue.
| involved, or to the results of such contest"
For couple of months past the New York
Times has been the most furious fighting paper
with which we are acquainted. 1t has labored
to acquire the organship of the party adopting
kossUTH's doctrine of Intervention in European
afairs-it has secuted all opposition to that doc
trine as "old fogyism," and as the result OF
Austrian principles and pay-and both the Gov
ernment and Congress have come in for a share
OF its malediclions for declining TO swallow the
kossUrH creed and its appendages.
KossUTH being about to cross the Allegha-
MES, the Times begins to cool, and we have
the above passages as the first fruits of return
ing reason.
But yesterday, the Times would hear Of no
" neutrality" J" that might do for nincompoops
but, for growing and prosperous nation, it was
the meancst and most heartess policy imagi-
nable. And as necessary sequence to the
abandonment of Indifference, KossUTH and
the Times boldly avowed that we must be pre-
pared to fght-and even fight, if words of
warning failed to keep off the Cossack hordes.
To-day, the Times plays different tune: it
can't dream of indifference, but it perceives
that, in the event of war, sit would, doubtless,
he Our interest and our rioht''-why NOT COW
our duty p" to preserve neutrality"
We are glad to place on record the Times
conversion; but what will kossUTH say2

Indiana.

II will be seen by the subjoined article that
the Wines Of INDIANA are on the alert, aud
propose an early and efficient organization for
the gubernatorial campaign. Our friends IN
that State are hopeful, and, as we believe, not
without good cause. We think that if they
had been seasonably and fully aware Of their
strength-it they had seen and done in time
what on the eve of the election they saw too
late-they would have given the vote of their
State for General TAYLOR in 1913. We be-
ieve that IL they make due and early prepa-
ration, if they will organize thoroughly and
move conceredly and with good understand
ing among themselves, they can give their
vote to the candidate of the Wing National
Convention at the next Presidential election.
Among the candidates named for the Govern
or's chair, all good WHIGs and true, the CON
vention can hardly fail to fnd an efficient and
popular man to represent their cause, and with
such man they will have every reason to
hope for success

prompt decision. Cstts victoiys sua snlspse a Ia
bayonnstts; and you are the sole man to accom-
plish 30 important victory for the peace OF the
world But if need may be of our influence, that
influence shall not fail you! %
that the Czar regards LOUIS BoNAPARrE as the
iorerunner of Legitimacy, these passages are
evidence Of treachery, as well as deep laid di-
Plomacy In any case they demonstrate the
advance of Cossack power and the alliance be-
tween the governments of Russia and France
for the purpose of Fastening the establishment
OF an absolutisl regime. With such scheme
in operation, European war must be consid-
cred amongst the most probable of events.

Mr.. Meredith has filled many prominent ano
important stations in the political affairs Of oul
State, which he discharged with promptness
and ability that has secured for him the con.
idence and esteem Of the people Of the State
He took active and prominent stand. as q
member of the Legislature, in favor Of the ad
justment of our State indebtedness, which for
years threatened to crush and ruin the energies Of
our young and growing State. We feel confident,
shou Id he be elected Governor, the honor and dig
nifty of the State, well the best interests of the
people, will be fostered and protected
We have thus briefly and frankly expressed our
preference for Mr.. Meredith without knowing
whether he would consent to be a candidate not;
we presume, however. if the interests of the Wing
party require il, and the fact be made apparent to
him. he could hardly decline. Give active,
energetic, working Whig for candidate, and
we will enter the contest with confidence Of achiev
ing a brilliant and glorious victory.

icie, reviewing the recent rapid voyages Of the
screw -propellers between England and the United
States, calls upon the great chip and pub
lie companies 10 place such vessels in the Indian,
Australian, and American tradcs, and remarks
that the comparatively cheap manner in which
scrow-ships worked, and their great capacity
for the conveyance Of both cargo and passengers
enable them to compete successfully with the more
expensive steamships for passengers, and with sail
ing vessels for goods 1t refers in detail to the sue
cess which seems to attend almost every vessel
fitted with the screw propeller, whether on long or
short voyages; and states that, Of their ultimate
success, the testimony of many eminent and prnc.
tical in their favor can leave but little doubt
the when il is considered that the change
only involves the application Of steam as an au1ili
airy power to saiIing vesscls built upon the most
approved models. Beyond this they will be en-.
abled, from their capacity for stowagc, and the
small amount OF room occupied by machinery m 4
fuel, to carry cnrgoes far exceeding an thing that
could be slowed by steamships of the ordinary
construction.

Senator DounlaS

| We find IN the Union corrected version O
the remarks of Senator DOUGLAS at the dinner
of the Jackson Democratic Association on The
9Th OF January. There are two or three points
In those remarks which some persons think
might have been improved by additional "cor-
rections." The Senator is evidently gentle
man of large ideas. He imagines that our Re.
public can grow with safety until it shall in
clude the continent and the islands on this side
of the main channel of the two great seas. We
shall not undertake to discuss this point with
the Senator. Our capabilities of safe expan-
sion are no doubt tolerably large; and it is
hardly worth while to moot an abstract ques-
tiOn in this regard. When the discussion be-
comes practical, it will be time enough to con-
slider it; meanwhile, if the Democracy" choose
to ilibuser on $40 40', they will be sure enough
to subsde on 400 without Wine Intervention.
There was one flibustering item, however,
in the Senator's remarks, which calls for obser
walton. A Senator should exhibit sensitive
regard for his veracity. At all events, he
should seek to preserve verisimiltude, if not
verify. What does Senator DouGLAs mean
when he says that the present Administration
have "given free passage to all men, ammuni-
ton, and supplies which may be sent in aid
Of the royalist cause" while they have en-
ployed ''the American army and navy to arrest
the volunteers, and seize the provisions, am
munitlon, and supplies of every kind which
may be sent in aid of the patriot cause?" Will
the honorable Senator correct" this version of
his remarks, or will he vindicate his veracity
by pointing out when or where the present
Administration have permitted violation Of
our neutrality laws for the benefit of any ''roy-
alist cause2'
But again, the honorable Senator assails the
President for his proclamation in advance of
the Cuban expedition We should be pleased
to learn if the honorable Senator contemplatcs
the addition to our Republic of the ''island on
this side of the main channel OF the two
great seas" by the agency of expeditions
fitted out in violation Of our own statutes and
the laws Of nations7 We should be pleased
TO learn if he considers any vague intention of
waging war in what one "beiieves the cause Of
liberty" justification for the lawless inva.
sion by individuals. without a flag and without
a commission, Of country with which their
own is at peacel Did not he know. at the time
thathe was assaing President FILLMORE for the
alleged use Of language which he never employ
ed, that the great man whose great day he was
celebrating had himself denounced, by the very
terms Of "outlaws and pirates,' this very class
of eNpediiionists? General JAcxsoN said. in
solemn military Judgment. that men who en-
gagged in expeditions of this nature were. in
the eye Of nations, "outlaws and pirates" Sen
ator DOUGLAS untruly attributes this language
TO President FILLMoRE, and assails him for it,
Certainly the honorable Senator was very un.
fortunate in the time and place selected for this
attack on the Administration.
