The Public Lands, &c.

The recent legislation of Congress in reference
to the public lands and internal improvements,
furnishes another striking example OF the con-
Trajectory opinions entertained by leading DEM
ocrats in different sections of the country, and
the impotence of Virginia politicians to MAINTAIN
the doctrine of strict construction inviolate.-
Both houses have passed o bill granting a mil
lion and q half acres OF public land to Iowa for
the construction of Railroads, Senator'S Cass and
Douglas voting for it; and also a bill granting a
million of acres to Florida. Other bills are to
follow, d~isposing of six millions more. SO the
public lands 90. The new States get all, and
the people of Virginia in the mean while Sroan
with taxes imposed to meet our internal I'M
provement debt. Messrs. Mason and Hunter
vote against all these measures, OF course, and
imagine that they are thus maintaining State
rights but it is q nice way to promote the rights
of Virginia, by refusing to claim her just share
in the common property, while other States are
ilourishing at her expense.
The Senate, largely Democratic as it is, has
also passed q number of internal improvement
bills among them one for 100000 to be ex-
pended in Michigan, and another for $SSo,ooo
devoted to the removal of distractions at the
mouth of the Mississippi. Heretofore President
Pierce has stood up to the strict construction
doctrine on this subject, pretty stihiy; but con-
sidering the political condition of the States IN
which the improvements mentioned lie, 1t Is
tbourht that he will find these appropriations to
ha constitutional

sountter ~Soyeignty.

Gen. Cass delivered an elaborate speech IN
the Senate last week, in defence of his favorite
doctrine of Squatter Sovereignty. He denied
that Congress had any constitutional power TO
organize territories, and that the reference IN
the Constitution to making 'needful rules aho
regulations for the territories and other proper
ty." only had reference to the land, and not TO
political organization. He avowed his belief
that a Territorial Legislature possesses the power
to prohibit slavery in advance of the formation
of their Constitution, and asssailed the positions

MINISTER DU BoIs.-The new Minister from
Netherlands is very generally condemned for
refusing to appear as a witness in the Homicide
case at Washington. The New York Courier
saws: "We learn that NJ. Du Bots alleges, that
NJ. Sartiges, the French Minister, earnestly pro
tested against his appearing as q witness; and
that considering the dietation of the French Min
lister as of far greater weight than the request of
the President of the United States, made through
the Secretary of State, he peremptorily declined
to become a witness, while he continues to de-
clare publicly, that the act was a foul and most
unprovoked MurderH If hereafter, NJ. Du
Bots or NJ. Sartiges, is ever permitted to darken
the doors of any American at Washington or
elsewhere, there is less of patriotism and self
respect in the country than we have heretofore
supposed. We learn, however, and we are glad
to hear it, that in Washington the indignation
against Du Bots and Sartiges, is universal; and
that even Secretary Marcy has very plainly e1-
pressed to the former his ~disapproval of his con-
duct"
Monsieur Du Bots had recently arrived in
Washington, and was taking his first breakfast
at the Hotel. The whole scene correspondent
with the travellers stories of daily occurrences
in this country, and he doubtless looked upon it
rs q matter of course. After Heating was shot
he went up to him to ascertain that he was
dead. He then passed into another room, and
meeting an acquaintance exclaimed: "What
peoples! If they do so at breakfast, what will
they do at dinner"

Euronean News.

The Collins steamship Atlantic arrived at N.
York on the 18th, bringing Liverpool dates to
the 3Oth ult., four days later than previous adj
vices. The treaty of peace had been officially
promulgated. 1t does not differ in any impor-
tant particular from the copy previously pub
lished. One of the conventions appended to the
treaty abolishes privateering, and recognizes to
the fullest extent the American doctrine that
the neutral flag protects the cargo, no matter by
whom owned. The abolition OF privateering is,
however, a step beyond what our Government
has been willing to yield, the Smallness OF our
navy in comparison with that Of the maritime
powers of Europe, rendering it an important arm
of our detences in case of war. Under the prin-
ciple now established by the allied powers, priva-
teering would be piracy, and this we presume is
the object of the agreement to which England
and France have come, and which they will no
doubt seek to impose upon the world as interna-
tional law.
Much excitement in political circles existed in
England, and the Ministry was evidently ap-
proaching o crisis which must test its strength
to the utmost. The other items of news are OF
very minor Importance.

FILLMORE IN OHIo.-The Ohio Statesman says:
"We are informed that the Know Nothing lodg-
es throughout Ohio are holding elections, to de-
eide to which organization they will adhere, the
boiling Spooner and Ford party, or the regular
Nationals, marshaled under the presidency of T.
G. Ware, ESQ. We learn from several gentle
men, well advised in the premises, that in many
counties where it was hoped Mr.. Fillmore would
be repudiated by the Councils, the Order are, on
the contrary, almost unanimous for the Ware
organization. In one large and leading county,
in particular, carried heretofore by the Know
Nothincs ever since their organization, and
where the anti-Fillmore Schismatics hoped to
make q successful stand, we are assured there
will hardly be a single Council, if one, in which
the Philadelphia nominations and platform will
not be ratified

Nicaragua Recognised.

On Wednesday last, President Pierce received
Padre Will, the new minister from Nicaragua,
in his diplomatic character, thus recognising the
government of Walker. Considering the fact
that Minister French was coldly repulsed only a
few weeks ago, this is q remarkable proceeding.
What recent information the Executive has re-
ceived to inspire confidence in Walker, the
country does not know. The President says, In
deed, that new facts have come to light, but
what they are we are not informed. When Sec
rotary Marcy rejected French, Walkers charac-
ter and position were bad enough, and the only
change has been from bad to worse. Then,
there was q possibility of his maintaining his po-
sition-now, his fortunes appear rather desperate.
But this very circumstance was probably a rea-
son for the recognition. Without aid from the
United States, Walker must go down, but "the
ban of outlawry" being taken off, our citizens
may on their own account 60 to his assistance.
Moreover, as England, it is said, sympathizes
with the Costa Ricans, we must of necessity take
the 9th r side.
We have heretofore alluded to the opposition
of prominent Democrats to the reception OF the
Padre. The Richmond Enquirer has been es-
pecially vehement against it. In that paper OF
the 9Th appeared an editorial denouncing Walk
er and his men as "vagabonds" engaged in a
scheme of wicked ambition and lawless rapine,
and declaring that the editors could "neither
weep at their misfortunes nor exult over their
success"
The history of Walkers connection with Mica
ragua may be briefly summed up. Two parties
in that State were contending for the mastery,
and one of them invited the assistance of Walk
err. He promptly obeyed the summons, and, set
ting up q native of the country, named Rivas, as
nominal President, is himself the chief ruler and
Dictator. The neighboring States refused to &C.
knowledge the legitimacy Of his government, and
he is at present engaged in a life and death wal
with Costa Rica.
