THE ERIE DIFFICULTIES.

People are beginning to inquire whether or not the
General Government is performing it's duty in the mat
ter OF the disturbances at Erie and whether it could
lot long since have put stop to toe outrages perpe
trated there 1t is the duty of the President-made
20 BY the Constitution of the United States-to see
that the laws Of Congress are faithfully executed.
Have they been so executed at Erie So far from
thin, is it not notorious that they have been roddeu
under foot by the authorities of that place Under
act of Congress the Circuit Court of the United States
granted injunction restraining all persons from inter
fering with the Erie and North East Railroad. Was
that injunction obeyed Not at all The Railroad
Company lays down the track and the mob tears ii up
In so doing it tramples upon the laws Of the United
States Can there be doubt of it What, then, is
the President doing that he does not interfere issue
bis proclamation, call out troops sfe that the laws
are executed
Again, the United States mails are conveyed over
this Erie and North East Rsroad-the road is por-
ton Of an important mail route-ote connecting the
East with the Great West. But communication is in
teupted and the mails delayed in consequence of the
lawless proceedings at Erie. The thing is Of daily oc
currenre OF all this tie President is Of course aware
then why does be not give the matter hi. stenton and
require the mails to be conveyed with regularity and
promPtDesss
Affairs anaged differently in the early days of
the Republic. In the famous Whsky Rebellion in
Pennsy lvans in 1884, the frat outbreak occurred on
July Is. On the 18th of August in the short space of
four weeks President Washington issued his procIa
nation for the insurgents TO desst at the sane time
making requisiion the Governors OF the adjoining
States for 1900 militia Why has not President Pierce
pursued similar course Here is precedent which
be might have followed with entire safety Why did
be not adoptit it, Why does he delay What does lie
expect to gain by it
Ii is certain thst the authorities Of Erie will be
compelled to yield ultimately. They are not sufficient
iy strong to contend with the General Government.
when the latter acts as act it must if the lawle pro-
eeedings are continued. Why does it not move now
OF its authority to act in the premises there can be no
question An eminent commentator on the COnstitu-
ton, renaIkng the power to establish pOs.rOads
says the rore probable opinion is tlAt Cousre may
I" also make or repair roads wherever and whenever
the same shall be necessary for the conveyance Of the
mail" Suppose the President besides sending two

The Satanic Press published GU Wednesday a dis
patch from Washington to the effect that treaty had
been negotiated by Mr.. Gadsden with Mexico, aud
gave string of provsionssuch as that Mexico shall
give to the United States boundary which will enable
us to protect that State from the incursons of the
frontier Indians; likewise right of railway to the Pa
cifc, with other details of the same sort. OF course
this would be most important if true, but truth aud
the Satanic are not speaking terms. So it hardly
necessary TO inform readers that the above spen
did array of facts bearing the destiny of this
try is mere grog-shop gable The Washington Union
autbortatvely denies it on behalf of the Government
and the Satanic, therefore, is left exclusive in
the possession of this information. We shall now look
