csn politics that we have recently encountered is
COL tanned in a letter from Signor Aurelio Safi Il,
the halia Popolo, republican journal published
at Genoa. The occasion for this document is an
address which Mr.. George N. Sanders, Exon
sui has addressed from London TO the President
of the Swiss Republic, relative to the duty ofthat
State toward the revolutionary exiles that may
desire an asylum within it's borders. In this ad-
dress, DIR. Ssfi finds very cheering symptom Of
the sympathies of America for the principles Of
the European democracy, and accordingly he ex-
pounds the state of the case in the following
rather ditbyrambic style:
"Tbe faith which the American people accord to
Mr.. Sanders, is certain argument of the sanction
which bis generous aspirations in Europe receive from
the public mind of his country The noble influence
exercised in America by the agitation of the lofty
sentiments Of the progressive democrats has extended
itself widely among all parties Mr. Buchanan the
abest lead,r of the National Democracy of the old
school, warmly sustains Mr.. Sanders. The letter Of
the Senator from the South referred 10 in the address
to the Swiss Government, the right of asylum, 10
further proof Of what is said above. To those ac-
quainted with American politics of the present day,
it necessary state that there has prevailed in
the southern States opposition to the agency Of the
Union in the international affairs of Europe. To-day
all parties agreed in the sentiment of duty aud
responsibility on the part Of free America toward the
Iersecuted Republicans, and the revolution Of the
people on the continent of Europe
Mr. Sanders IS not a new friend of the
cause of liberty in Europe. In lsi9 he made
energetic efforts to bring material aid to the
Re epabhcans Of Italy. The French invasion of
Rome unfortunately occurred at the moment of
