FRANCE AND SWEDEN-THE UNITED
STATES AND DENMARK.

We translate a couple of paragraphs from a
letter of M. Gallardet, dated at Paris, Deem
Der 6, to the Courier des Etats Unis, in Now
York.
General Canrobert has arrived at Paris
within the last two days, but nothing has vet
transpired as to the result of his mission. The
correspondent of the Independence Belize, who
signs himself Y, Tread Sydney Renouf) writes
that the Monitear will before long give us some
information in regard to this embassy; and
he afiirms again that it has had a very impor-
tant political result. There is not yet ques-
ton of a treaty of alliance offensive, and de-
fensive, because the Allies have resolved to
solicit the aid of no one They have not
need of conquerpg their adversary what they
have need of is moral manifestation by
Europe to constrain it to peace. The Emperor
Napoleon intended to ask neither more nor
less in his speech, as M. Walewski has estab.
lished in diplomatic circular, which serves
as a commentary on that speech. Therefore
Mr.. Sydney Renouf denies altogether the re.
ports which represeot France and England as
having sought to obtain Spanish contingent
or Swedish contingent. They will only ac-
cept the Allies who offer themselves voluntarily,
as did Sardinia. 1t is sufficient for them at
present to have obtained the splendid (eclatant)
adhesion of Sweden and Denmark TO the cause
which they sustain.
:" In regard to Denmark, they are quite ear
nestly engaged at Copenhagen with three
things besides the Eastern question. These
three things are the trials Of the former min
listers, the reconciliation of the King with the
heir presumptive Of the Crown, and the refu
sal of the United States to take part in the
conferences relative to the Sound tolls. 1t is
feared that these obstinate Yankees may yet
want to force the passage, and thereby to raise
up conflict next summer in which the two
Worlds will be involved"

KANsAs-vEsTED RIGHTS.

In the year 1856 the Territories of Nebras-
ka and Kansas were organized and opened to
emigrants, from all the States, with full liberty
to bring with them any kind of property recog-
nized as such in any Of the States Such be-
ing the case, many persons from different
slaveholding States, as Virginia, Tennessee,
Kentucky, Georgia, Missouri, and others. dis
posed of their real estate and broke up their
homes in the States, from which they emf.
grated, and established themselves in Kansas,
carrying with them their slave property.
The rights Of such persons, BY their acts, be.
came rested rights, Of which they cannot be
deprived by such legislation as the restorers
of the Missouri compromise line" propose
In our view the right of Shareholders to emf.
CRATE to any territory Of the United States. by
law open to white settlement, and to take with
them their slave property, exists independent
Of any law of Congress, but rests on that
higher supreme law-the Constitution. There
are those, however, who think that congress.
sional legislation confers such rights; that the
right Of Shareholders to take their slave prom.
erty with them to Kansas depends solely on
certain words in the Nebraska-Kansas act.
Those who entertain the latter view, have
lost sight Of the equality Of the States, and
forgotten that the public domain is the COM
mon property of all the States, to be made
use Of for the common benefit.
Though we cannot understand by what men
tai strabismus they have overlooked these plain
principles Of the Constitution, and arrived at
the conclusion that Congress may lawfully de-
clare that any certain specific kind Of recog-
nized property shall not be protected in the
Territories, yet we cannot but hope, that
among those who entertain such opinions.
there must be many who will not ignore the
obligations which justice and good faith i'm
pose, but will respect the rights which have
been acquired las they esteem it) under the
act Of Congress.
By their own theory the act of Congress
gave the right to emigrate to Kansas with
slave property. Such being the case, the acts
Of the parties in going there with their slave.
property lin many cases it may have been sci.
ling out the homestead Of their fathers and
journeying thousands Of miles TO their new
homcs) rested those rights.
Now, the bare question here presented is
SHALL THOSE VESTED RIGHTS BE RESPECTED
Daily national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1854, 1854-05-17

We learn from some of our city contempo-
raries that the jackson Democratic Associa.
ton" of this city was re-organized on the 10th
instant. 1t was ordered that the proceedings
of the meeting be published in the Washing
ton Union, the Epening Star, and the Wash
ington Neios. No recognition Of the Sentinel
was made by the august Jackson Association
Of Washington. This may have been inten-
tional or it may have been an oversight We
care not, however, which it was We have no
petty spite or childish rage 10 manifest on any
occasion or towards any man or body of men,
But We have some honest opinions to express
on this occasion which it may be wholesome
for the Association to mark, read, learn. and
inwardly digest"
That there are many sound, respectable, and
patriotic Democrats in that body, we know;
and sound, respectable, and patriotic Demo.
Gratis We esteem at their full value, whether
they be for or against us personally. But if
we are not mistaken in the composition Of
that body, it is mainly composed of ofice.h holders
and .otiiceseekers, who make a tremendous
hullabalo on the eve Of very Presidential cleo
tion, in order to manifest their zeal and to re-
commend themselves for Office Now, if we
are to be snubbed, then such are the men, of all
mankind, that we want to be snubbed by.
The thing Is rather agreeable than otherwise.
Yet, to be serious, the idea of a body Of dis
franchised persons in DISTINGUISHED city,
setting up to make Presidents promuge plat
forms and decide upon party tests, is simply
preposterous. The people of Kamskatka have
the same right to do so. The rioters in the
country care no more about the resolves of the
DISTINGUISHED people Of Washington than they
do about the blowing of the wind Their in
dignant denunciations, their clamorous patriot
ism, and their zeal for office are as good as a
play to the country people. Yet, if they can
help the cause of Democracy while they are
helping themselves, even though they try to
hurt us, then we say, in the classic language
of the day" Let EN- rip"
Far Be it from US to insinnate that there is
anything dscreditabe in holding Office. Our
best and first men are Office holders. Wespeak
only of busy, meddling, selfish men, to whom
Office is the first thing and patriotism the last.
But there is one thing that we disapprove Of
and that the whole country condemns. 1t is
combination Of otfice-holders to effect politi-
cal ends. But when the holders and the seek.
ers of office, combine. then language is not
strong enough to pronounce proper condem

models for four new species of his weapon.
namely small pocket pistol, calculated to
throw a MIME ball one hundred wards; a
cavalry pistol with a range of FIVE hundred
yards; rifle suitable for footmen, with a
range OF one mile, and large gun to throw a
two-ounce ball or a small shell one mile and

declares he can set on fire house. or ship Mt a
distance Of nearly two miles, and prevent the
use Of field artillery, by killing the horses be-
fore the guns are brought within good range.

is equal to ten muskets, bayonets and all, for,
place man six rods distant with musket and
bayonets, and before he can bring The bayonet

ten times. They carry balls with great pre-
