OUR DIFFICULTIES WITH ENGLAND.-ln the
report of the speech which Lord Clarendon
made in the House of Lords, on the American
Enlistment and Central American question. We
find, mingled with expressions of ''sineere de-
sire for peace with the United States" very
firm declarations that her Msjesty's Govern
meut had already yielded all that they could,
in honor, eoncede. He not only repeated his
justification of the conduct of Mr.. Champion
and the Consuls, but very emphaticaly said !:
" | think nobody will require of US to sacrifice
our agents and to purchase Cancellation with
the United States by doing that which would
be both shabby and dishOnorable."
There will be stirring times when the news
of the dismissal of the Agents reaches England,
but the storm will, we believe, blow harmlessly
over. After Lord Clarendon had spoken, and
Lord Panmure had explained the reason for
sending troops to Canada, Lord Grey expressed
his belief that the disputes with the United
States could not lead to serious results. He
then went on to condemn the conduct of Mr..
Champion and the Consuls as justly offensive
to the United States, and also criticised the
uncOnciliatory tone of Lord Clarendons first
dispatches in the enlistment correspondence.
Lord Grey is right, and so ber minded men in
England will take the same view.-N. Y. Sun.

ELoPEvENr IN Hen LIFE.-The New York
correspondent of the Boston Ledger, in his let
ter of the 18th, writes as follows:
have been waiting for some days to pro-
cure the names in a scandalous elopement case
here, before spoke of them. You have heard
the rumor, blindly, that "a distinguished Off
Ger had eloped with the daughter Of a man OF
the highest position, and formerly U. 5. gov
eminent official" The parties turn out to be
Mai. Kearney, Of the U. 5. army, a man of i'm
mense wealth, who lost an arm in Mexico, a
married man with family, who ran off TO Eu-
rope with the youngest daughter of Hugh Max
well, ESQ. The young lady was some twenty
two years old, aud always considered pattern
OF propriely. KearBey settled $4,000 year
upon his wife and family before be left, leav-
ing himself about $50, 900. They left in one
of the steamers for the continent, and a son of
Maxwell has pursued them, with fury in his
heart.

BoLTING THE CMOINNATI PLATFoRM.-The
Charleston Mercury" says that while it can
accept the nominations made by the Demo-
cratic party, we cannot yield our assent to some
of the propositions embraced in its platform"
"The Democratic party, indeed" it adds /:
"uould ha0e> done nell If it had redeemed its
former pledges before entering into neW ones"
We quote further:
"And were it not that these last are in con-
formity with that wild and lawless spirit
which seems destined to sweep over the coun-
try, and, therefore, more likely to be fulfilled,
we might console ourselves with our past ex-
perence of Democratic faith. We shall, in
deed, be content if the new pledges but share
the fate of the old; and, in feet, our contdency
IN the moderation Of Mr.. Buchanan's oharad
ter very much relieves the anxiety that would
otherwise be excited by the extreme pTO)o-
sitions adopted by the Convention at Oincin-
natl. We have .ieasCn to believe that they
will be Rugatory in fact, and therefore worthy
only of protest As to the principles"
Unfortunately for the Mercury, Mr.. Buch-
anan tells us he is the Cincinnati Platform,
and no more James Buchanan

FoRuGE SoUADRoSs OFF OUR CoAsTs.-It
appears that the Prnssian government has
taken steps 10 form a naval station on this
continent, with the Oslensible object of pro-
teeting the Germans who yearly emigrate
across the Atlantic. The Cabinet Of Vienna
has decided upon following lis example, and
a squadron of three ships of-war is about TO be

coast. We are somewhat az loss 10 under

BR- Previous to the nomination Of Mr..
Buchanan, the democratic press denounced
Mr.. Benton as a black republican, and the
Cincinnati Convention shut the door in the
faces of his friends who applied for admis-
sion into that body as delegates Benton
is now supporting Buchanan with might
and MAN."
Scarcely twelve months since, the Wash
ington Union got into quarrel with John
Van Buren, aud read him out of the demo
cratic party. John is now enlisted in be-
half Of Mr.. Buchanan.
Now, we would like to know what par
ticular opinions Of Mr.. Buchanan make him
acceptable TO these black republican demo
Gratis 1t may be that they are enamored
with the Lancaster resolutions Of 1919 ;
possibly with his speech in the House Of
Representatives in 1926 or, at any rate,
with his sentiments as disclosed in bis re-
marks on the annexation Of Texas.

through this place on the evening of the 9th,
and in the presence of myself and several

REHABILITATION
MR.. VAN RTREN.
Mr.. PIERCE,


Elected by 81, 53S mai. Elected by 60, 10 maj
Third year, sc, 429 maj Third year, 9O3, 927 min.
1910, $500 min 1856, to be tried
If this does not present very encouraging
view of the field to the opposition forces we
are widely mistaken. Compared with the rapid
descent and political extinction of Mr.. Pierce,
the decline and downfall of Van Buren, present
him in a highly favorable light. Although
elected by less than thirty thousand of the
popular vote, we iHd that in 1889 Mr.. Van
Buren, had actually recovered all that he had
lost in 81, and something over; while in the
third year of this administration, Mr.. Pierce
stands before us Nth deficiency Of three hun
dred and sirty SeUea thousand UOtes, as COM
pared nth the popular majority Of his election,
and in popular minority of over three hun
dred thousand votes.
OF course, with this tremendous popular
verdict against him, the denomination of Mr..
Pierce was utterly out of the question but the
Cincinnati nominee is boldly placed before the
American people as the universal legatee CT Mr..
Pierce and as his administrator, de bOHlS non,
domestic and foreign policy included, with the
extra spicy ibustering tit-bit of the Ostend
Cuban manifesto.
Before the expiration of ten days, the democ-
racy will probably discover that the Novem-
Der election will be no holiday affair, but
struggle as fierce and as desperately contested
as the siege of Sebastopol.-N. Y. Herald.

VIZ TAKE 1T BACK-We find that we made
a mistake in our paper of Tuesday, in intimat-
ing that Mr. breckenridge political career had
been so short that il would be difficult to prove
inconsistency upon him; and we hasten to
make the correction. In truth, we gave the
subject too little consideration, and ''meant no
offence" in thus inadvertently representing
him to be such an anomaly of his party. He
was not only a Taylor man in the Fall of 847,
but attended large and influential meeting
held in Lexington about that time, and thereat
made glowing and eloquent speech in favor
of Gen. Taylor for the Presidency! If the
reader will procure vol. % of the Appendix to
the Congressional Globe, and turn to page 364,
he will find Mr.. Breckenridge admitting the
fact when charged upon him in debate, and
excusing himself by saying that he discovered
his error when he found the Wings taking up
Gen. Taylor, and backed out from his position
and his sentiments. The charge was made
against him by Democrat, too! And in the
debate on the subject Democrats freely called
Mr.. Breckenridge an "old fogy" and charged
him with opposition to the progressive Princi-
pies and measures of the party.

A GLORIOUS TRIBUTE.-Research shows says
the Louisville Journal, that the loftiest eulogums
ever passed on Fillmore have come from bis oppO-
nents. They have exhausted the vocabulary of
praise in trumpeting his wisdom, patriotism, and
fidelity to his country. Here is passage from the
Democratic ReUieD Of December, 1885, by far
the most able and candid of all the organs OF its
party. How proud should we feel of our gallant
leader, when his very enemies crown him with
laurels and strew his path with palms:
Momentous events were transporting. The ag-
tation of the question of slavery was paramount
in the public mind. In this crisis, it well that
so reliable man as Mr.. Fillmore found in the
Presidential chair. The safety and perpetuity Of
the Union were threatened Already had fanati-
csm raised its hydra head. Schemes and 'isms"
leaped from thousand ambuscades. The enemies
of the Union started forth on every side-Aboli
tionism here-Secession there-AcquisitiOn and
Filibusterism elsewhere. These were the fOrmida-
BILE elements of misrule with which the executive
had to cope. How well he met, and how entirely
he for the time overcame these enemies of the
peace of the Republic, we leave to the historian to
relate; but our retrospect would be incomplete and
disingenuous did it not accord the need of praise
Justly due to high moral excellence, and inteec.
tual administrator honesty and TALENT devel-
oped in the Administration of Mr. Fillmore.

man and patriot, HENRY CLAY, and the chame-
lion politician, JAMES BUCHANAN:
JUNE u, 1856.
Dear Sir Your notice of Mr.. Buchanan,
a few DAYS since, reminded me of an anecdOte
told me of him by Nj. Poinsett, of S. c., some
years ago.
A party of gentlemen were dining together
in Washington, among whom were Mr.. Clay
and Mr.. Buchanan. Mr.. Buchanan had just
been appointed Minister to Russia, and was
making some inquiries Of Mr.. Clay about court
dress, its character, cost, &c. MIR. Clay told
him, that he had one, for which he had no
use. and would give it to him. Mr.. Buchanan
thanked him, but said, as he had worn 1t, 1t
must be furnished. Mr.. Clay replied in that
manner which was peculiar TO him, "Oh, but
you can turn it, Buchanan" The discomfit-
ure of Buchanan was complete as the CONVEX
sation took place just after Mr.. B. had turned
bis political coat in a most unblushing man
ner Mr.. Clay's rebuke should be placed be-
fore the people. 1t gives the character of the
man in a sentence. His chameleon nature I'M
fits him for the crisis. in the present cOmpli-
cation of affairs, we need in our Chief Magis-
trate rare union Of moderation with firm
Mesa union exhibited by Mr.. Fillmore with
singular felicity during his administration.
"The hour has come and the man"-but not
the man to whom Mr. Clay could say: "You
can turR il, Buchanan"
