obnoxious regulation with regard to free ne
groes. These terms were accepted by Missouri,
and in 1921 Mr.. Monroe issued his proclama-
ton, announcing that Missouri was State of
the confederacy. This proposition of Mr..
Clay was the real, true Missouri compromise.
The act of 1920 was mere act of ordinary
legislation, and was repudiated by the anti
slavery men, almost as soon as it was enacted.
But we viii trace the treatment which the
Missouri compromise has received at the hands
of those who now insist on its sanctity in our
next ISSUE We close this article by express
ing the confident hope that the National In
teHigencer viii refresh its recollection Of past
events, and do justice to the truth OF history.
We know full well that we never have and
never can agree with the political sentiments of
that journal, yet it would give us pain to be
convinced that it would not correct its mis-

M. THEIRS AND THE EMPEROR OF
FRANCE.

Monsieur Gaillardet, in q late letter from Paris
to the Courier DIES Etats- Unis Of New York,
relates the following anecdote as current in the
French capital, which, he says, he gives for
what il is worth:
an. Theirs, who has remained a most faith
full representative Of the monarchy Of July, has
not hesitated to pronounce himself in favor of
the Anglo-French alliance against Russia,
from which it has been inferred that he wished
to connect himself with the imperial govern
ment. This is q mistaken opinion; for he has
only been DESTROYS of diverging as far as
possible from M. Guizot, and Of tripping up
the fusion which would restore his old rival TO
power. That's all. In proof Of this, it is said
that on learning Of the remarks Of M. Theirs,
the emperor sent M. Drouin de Lhuys to him,
for the double purpose of eliciting his advice,
and, if possible Of attaching him to his gov
ernment But M. Theirs is reported TO have
answered that he neither wished to counsel nor
to serve the man who had thrown him into
prison. If he is in embarrassment, he added,

n@- As we said would be the case, a week
or two ago, the fanatics are making great eff
forts to produce anti-slavery agitation and ex-
element by means Of public gatherings, fran
tic appeals, and endless petitions. We do not
doubt that at this moment hundreds Of petitions
are in circulation in the various sections Of the
country, and that to render them imposing,
thousands of fictitious names will be appended.
The fanatics will find that Congress is not to BIO
oyerawed by such appeals, petitions, and re-
monstrances. But as such occupations are
meat and drink to the agitators, and are not
likely TO prove prejudicial to the Nebraska bill,
why, let them go on.
