"rHE RESULT IN MASSACHUSETTS"

Under this caption we find in the "Union" Of
yesterday the following article:
sWe trust that the Southern people, and especially the
Southern Whgs viii carefully crutinixe and deliberate
upon the result Of Mondays election In Massachusetts,
Abolition religious intolerance and political prescription
have swept the State from the centre to the crcumfer
ence and revolutionary doctrines reign supreme In
der to let the South the platform which the Know
Nothings have iumphed (and especially in face of the
efforts making to noculate the South with that dan
gerous fanaticism) we copy the following resolutions
adopted by convention Of that party before the
last election
Resoped That we hail with hope and Joy the recent
brilliant Of the republican party In the States of
Maine Iowa, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Ohio and we
trust these victories foreshadow Of others soon TO
come, by which the free States shall present solid
phalanx of opposition to the aggressions Of slavery.
Resolved, That, in the present chaotic condition OF
parties in Massachusetts, the only star above the horizon
is the love of human liberty and the adherence Of slavery
and that it is the duty Of all anti slavery men to rally
around the republican party organization which in
vtes the united action of the people on the one tran
scending question Of slave dominion which now divides
the Uuon.
"Whereas Roman Catholicism aud slavery, being alike
founded and supported the basis OF ignorance and
tyranny and being therefore natural allies in every
fare against liberty and enlightenment: therefore be it
Resolved That there exist real hostility TO Ro
Catholicism which does not embrace slavery its

in Massachusetts,, we append in parallel columns

Ministers at Brussels where il we rightly informed
the chief topics Of discussion not exclusively Of
American interest In Short Mr.. Soule had done what
he could to obtain unenviable notOrey in society and
in politcs and he hardly complain if he is regarded
in the character be has been anxious to assume.
The French Government, under all preceding regimes,
as well as bs present. have possessed and exercised the
right Of excluding from the territory of France such per-
they did think fit admit Not long ago. for
instance ~. Kossuth informed his arrival at Mar
seies that he would not be allowed to enter the
try The other day. upon Mr. Soue's landing at Calais
or Bouogne he politely informed by the police that
orders had arrived not to allow him to proceed No OBJ
lection was made TO his passport and
signed for this decision beyond the will Of the French
Government Some expostulation followed and a refer
made by telegraph to the authorities in Paris,
who confirmed the refusal Of the local police SO Mr.
Sonle was compelled, na, to recross the cbanRe and
to return to this country, which is perfectly ndscrmi
mating in its toleraon of all who may reach its shores
No one, imagine, will much to pity MIR.
Soue's wrongs II he has been afroned the exception
made to his prejudice is obviously personal grounds
and has nothing to do with his public character which
not involved in the question 1t would be absurd to
contend that he has any right the French terri
tory, for whatever right he may have possessed
French citizen waived by his Own act and he may
console himself with the reflection that thousands of bet
ter than himself just excluded from that soil
to which they profess attachment than he do
His grievance, If IT be one, private affair and though
he happens to hold the commission of Minister of
| acter in France any other country
We advert to the subject because find that there is
disposition the part of the Ministers Of the United
States here and in Paris to give Importance to this af
fair which does not possess, and to demand explana
tions and redress for which the French Gov
ernen had perfect right to take if it thought fit. We
hope that may be permitted to tell these Minister'S in
friendly spirit that if they do really resort to violent
for such they viii not be supported by
public opinion in Europe, probably in the United
States 1t cannot be supposed that the American people
nsensbe to the inconvenience Of appointing their
ENJOYS in Europe who set every rule of social and
political life at Defiance who mix with gentlemen Of
character and station only to insult and assa he and
then fall back into that congenia society which has been
thrown shores by the political commissions OF
former years No class Of statesmen has been favor
ably received generally respected in Europe than
the Ministers of the United States when they brought
with them the qualities which may be reasonably expect
ed in filing their position but it is too much to
qure that the title of American Minister should
exempt such person Mr. Soule has shown himself tc
