lied protectors Of Spain are now subject to our
balance ofpowcr." She, subject to their win,
must therefore succumb to our Just de-
mands. Negotiations and indemnities for the
Black Warrior outrage, and all others, upon
our people and our ships, in and about Cuba,
Will not suffice. We want not oniy indemnity
for the past, but security for the future.n Nov
is the time to command it.
Let the friends OF the administration who de-
sire TO see its last days better than the first--
who wish the restoration OF the democratic
party to popularity and bonor-who are in
favor of bold American policy, plead with
Mr. Pierce for an extra session OF Congress. 1t
will save him. The country will sustain him,
because justice will be with him. If the Cabinet
rebel, let him get new Cabinet. Where is the
difficulty Now is the time for this bold and
popular movement. The late speech, in the
Cortes, of Luzuriaga. shows that an extra ses-
sion and definite and decisive message from
the President are the true policy for Mr.. Pierce.
Let him pluck up little courage, and with
out shrinking or limiting, "strike while the iron
is hot" We plead for action, for decision, for
ON American 'balance Of power" for justice
and for peace.

CnryALrER WIKorF AND. Mn. SouLE.-We
understand that Chevalier Wikof intends to
elucidate a certain important disclosure made
by Mr.. Soule in his recent correspondence,
giving an account of a supposed hostile mission
to the United States by Prince Napoleon, the
son Of Jerome Bonaparte. This disclosure hos
been heretofore supposed to be what is CLASH
cally called "a mares nest We understand
that Chevalier Wikoff, who had, during that
period in Paris, personal, social, and all sorts
of knowledge Of Prince Napoleon, and who met
him on terms Of intimacy daily in Paris, Is
prepared TO show that there was no foundation
for the statement relative to the supposed hoe
tile mission alluded TO in the Soule correspon-
dence. Moreover, Chevalier WikoG, who was
a. the time the diplomatic sgen. Of Lord Pal
merston and The British Foreign Office, will

The OPPONENT or HENRY A. WISE AND
MS PLATfoRM-We published yesterday, the
platform of Thomas S. Flournoy, the nominee
Of the American party in Virginia for Cover
nor. Upon the whole, il is sound and ssnsi-
bic platform in its local and domestic views
lie is, perhaps, somewhat too hard upon the
Catholics; but time and little experience will
rub of all such rough edges Of the general
policy of his party. In national view, Mr..
Flournoy is eminently conservative; and occu-
pies substantially the American Live Oak State
Rights platform Of George Law. He says that
he cannot take the stump in opposition 70 Mr.
Wise; but upon this brief exposition of his
principles he will leave the issue to the people
of Virginia. Between the candidate of the
Cabinet spoils democracy Of Washington, and
the Richmond regency, and the champion of
the new American party, carrying all the old
wbig party with them, and many of the old
line democracy we may guess the result Mr..
Wise will most probably be reserved o mission
abroad, or place in the Cabinet; for il is evil
dent that he is to be defeated. New Hampshire
has spoken, 30 look out next for a tremendous
echo from the Old Dominion.

of the number We're unnaturalized foreign

the -naturalizsd foreign vote amounting to

thirds that OF tie whole city. II thought,
however, that there was full one-hali for

against the Know Nothings. The HaUasye
, tells how the election was achieved, Il was
through the agency of doggeries and beer
houses. 4they kept their friends tul OF

From the result of this election and the
