ENGLAND's ENoRMoUsNAvAL Pow r.
Since Great Britain has determined TO
meet Russia, if need be, in the dread ex-
tremity of war, her preparations are abb
solutely terrible. The squadron, which
is &c sail in April, with $4,000 French
and British troops, will consist of thir-
ty vessels, and will include twenty screw
steamers, three paddle steamers, and sew
en- sailing vessels. Among the screw
steamers, are the Duke of Wellington y
which mounts l3l guns the .Royal
George" of 12O guns; the "Joan d.
Are" of l0l guns, and four others of SO
guns each. Altogether, the squadron
will be such as will make it the most
formidable fleet that ever encountered
an enemy. 1t will be the most power
ful fleet ever fitted out by Great Britain
In the Royal Dock Yards, the formation
and equipment of this fleet proceeds
with celebrity that excites the astonish-
ment Of foreigners, and the pride Of the
English people.-[Mil. Wisconsin.

"A Catholic writer in France furnishes

Eminent theologians explain why
the devil has more liberty in the United
States than in Europe where the sacri-
fees of the mass are celebrated at vast
distances apart, and where SO many mil
lions of men, descendants of Protestants,
have no religion whatever, and are not
even baptized. This rarity of the sa-
craments leaves the devil greater sways

earth, not being driven afar by the fire.

TIE INFLUENCE Of the German Press
in opposition to the attempted repeal Of
the Missouri Compromise is being fell
at Washington. A wen informed Ger
man paper before us states:
From over 100 German papers pub.
lished in the Union, in Southern as wei
as Northern States, their are but two Oh
three papers favorable to that bill. The
whole population Of German descent are
almost unanimously against it,:
Could anything evince nobler spirit
of true democracy This gratifying
expression makes some Pale-faces, ever
among men, miscalled Statesmen, who
would sell their country for the drippings
of Office. The reason why tn; German
Press is so determined is at once saga
cious and patriotic. If the dangerous
object now being attempted Of extending
slavery into Nebraska should succeed
it ', Guild forever defeat the National Home.
std bill, fer Slavery and the national
Homestead law are as much opposed te
each other as the devil and the angels

EThe .Argus in speaking of the pro
gress of the liquor bill in the Assembly
makes the following just remarks in re.
gard to Mr.. Donaldson
perhaps justice demands the state
ment of one fact. The chair has been
occupied throughout the entire discus.
sion of this question, by Mr.. Donaldson,
a Wing, and warm friend of the law.
As chairman of the committee of the
whole, he has conducted its delibera-
tons, with dignity and impartiality, ia.
voring if at all, the minority to which he
was opposed, granting them every right,
and extending them every courtesy
Many of them have expressed them
selves not insensible to the considerable
ness of his course and manner"
Among the advocates of the bill in the
House no man has conducted himself
more nobly than Mr.. Knowlton. Hi.
course has been just what we most ad-
mire, open, fearless, despising all double
dealing, and never shrinking from any
responsibility. Mr.. X. is Democrat
but is not afraid to act according to his
views of right on question of this kind
Mr.. Remington is another gentleman
who has conducted himself in a manner
deserving Of the thanks of his constit,,-
ency, as we'll as Of the friends of tempe.
rance throughout the State, upon thi.
measure.

A SMART G1RL.--Asingular marriage
took place few days since, IN Highs
town, N. =. The bride had FIVE suitors,
to each of whom she engaged herself, APP
pointing, with each, the same day for
the ceremony. At the time fixed all the
lads were on hand, and the magistrate
who was to perform the ceremony was
present. The maiden had not made up
her mind fully as to who should be made
her happy lord, when the magistrate re-
quested the couple to stand up. As if
driven to desperation, she bounded to
her feet, gave one Of the s'boys" a nudge
with her foot, and before the others had
recovered from their astonishment, the
knot was tied.

KINGS, REPUBLICS AND ARTISANS
We desire just to make brief record of
significant fact. Every one remem-
bsrs the outcry made in this city, be-
cause, at the opening Of the Csystal Pal
ace, the men who built it were not re-
ccgnized at, or admitted to, the cereno-
NAL. The omission was wrong, and the
mechanics of the United States owe gra-
titude to Mr.. William Henry Fry, for
pointing it on. with eloquent indigna-
ton. Well, the King of Prussia has
been building chapel lately-a royal
chapel-one Of the most superb and ella
berately decorated buildings in Europe.
On the recent anniversary of his coro-
nation, the chapel was dedicated, with
all the pomp and solemnity which the
Protestant liturgy allows. In addition
to the clergy of Berlin and Potsdam, the
King, Queen and all the members of the
royal family, all the ministers Of state
and officers of the court, as well as the
superior officers of the army, were pre-.
sene, together with all the officers Of the
Order of the Black Eagle. All the ar
fists, architects, the masons and Other
workmen engaged in the construction Of
the chapel, as well as their wives, were
admitted to the ceremony, the first aci
of which consisted in laying the las,
stone in cavity left under the altar for
this purpose, in which were placed re:
cord Of the event, drawing of the bull
ding, etc., and Ia list of all the artists ant
operatives engaged in the work. THAI

ARRAY BETWEEN CLrMEss AND Han

ARRAY BETWEEN CLEMENS AND Han
aIs.-The Washington correspondent Of
the N. Y. Times, gives the following ac-
count of this disgraceful affair:
Slight mention has been made in the
press of an affray which occurred in a
restaurant of this city day or two since,
between Ex-senator Clemens, of Alaba-
ma, and Hon. Mr.. Harris, member of
Congress from Mississippi. The affair
was rather serious and can hardly fail to
end in a mortal combat. The story is,
that gentleman who was in company
with Mr. Harris, introduced Mr.. Glenn
ems to him without having ascertained
that the introduction would be agreeable.
Mr.. Harris, who is an ultra Southern
Rights man, and considers Mr.. Clemens
las "submissionist," declined the in
PRODUCTION to any man who fraterniZed
with John Van Buren,. Mr.. Clemens
intimated that he would hold the Missis-
Isippian personally responsible for the in
suit; whereupon, it is stated, Mr.. Hair
iris denounced him as an Abolitionist.--
Mr.. Clemens drew his revolver ant
struck Mr.. Harris with it, cutting Sc.
we're cash in his head, and telling him at
his feet. Mr.. Harris being unarmed
made no resistance. A Southern gen
tleman tells me that it is very common
thing in the South to bring on an affray
by drawing pistol, knocking mar
down with it, and then shooting him a
once if he makes resistance. As the
man striking the first blow in his way
has his weapons in hand all ready t
shoot, of course he can murder his an
Itagonist before the latter has time t,
draw a weapon.-Northern sschivalry
would call such an act of assassination.
