1t may be that the late mission to Wheatland
of Governor Wise embraced general policy Of
starving the contumacious Northern democracy
into submission, in addition to the bestowment Of
the lions share Of the plumber upon the happy
family of the Richmond sweat house. In this
view, the very short stay of the belicose Virginia
salamander at Wheatland, and the concurrent re-
ports from all sides, that he left the shrine of his
pilgrimage somewhat disturbed in his spirit OF
devotion, afford us pleasing indication or two
of good time coming From these signs the
augury may be good one that the democratic
party is not to be reduced to reckless sectional
horde of niger driving disunienists and vagraDt
libusters and that the prospect is not the best in
he world for an increase in the price of niggers

quietly says that the duration Of the peace de-
ponds upon the course pursued by Russia; i'm
plying that If the Gear persists in his attempts to
construe the treaty in his own way, or, - the
English call it, to evade his obligations, war will
be declared afresh 1t may be presumed that the
Emperor of the Russas will not bring this con-
tipgency upon his head, at all events, until his
railways are built. The menace at Manchester
will be enough.
With regard to France Lord Palmerston says
little; that little complimentary. He speaks In
high terms of the French alliance, and alludes to
no probable cause Of rapture between the two
countries. But meanwhile, an organ Of the
French government-the Constitutional an
article soundly rating the Times and the British
people, and intimating that Lord Palmerston's
ministry did not possess the confidence of the
British people. On reading this the editor Of
the Times waited to see how the imperial master
would notice the insolence Of his mental" He
did notice it, in short paragraph in the Monaeur,
which denied that it had ever been authorized by
the government, and tried, rather awkwardly, TO
smooth over the trouble between the two
countries. With this semiapology, the naughty
Times declares itself satisfied, aud proceeds TO
glorify the alliance, mingling, however, with lie
sweet, some few drops of bitter for HE Imperial
Majesty.
IL seems quite likely that this little tiff may
have the effect of strengthening the alliance, in
stead of weakening it. The longer the two
nations remain at peace and in alliance the closer
are knit together their bonds o. union--co inner
cial, financial, social and literary. During the
old Napoleonic wars there were no steamers
plying to France, no railroads carrying pas
sengers from London to Paris in day, no tele-
graph wires tying the nations together at the
bottom of the sea, but little international
trade Bordeaux was the great French seaport in
those days) slight relations in a social and lite
rary point OF view, and comparatively very little
intercourse. Now, ali this il so changed that i
would necessarily require new and far greater
causes than the old ones to provoke war.
