VIII There BE WarI


Will France keep peace with England, or will
the Nephew of his Uucle' revenge the ancient
orudce OF France. and his present jcalousieS and
indiguities by executing the sudden blow at Eng
land. which Napoleon the FIRST would have attempt
ed but for the disobedioncc and cowardice of an
Admiral? The English papers are seriously con
sidorin. the probabilities of a war They declared
that England must he prepared not only for war
but for surprise. The blow, il is believed, II II
comes at all will come suddenly and unawares.-
They note the fact that Napoleon III says nothing
and never threatens England, but is working with
prodigious activity. The French feet will number
within year, 80, effective screw ships of war
These steamships, all Of great speed are composed
of 80 line of battle ships go will be constructed
this year. and nine Of them will be especially Of
superior speed to- any in the English navy,) 10
friratcs 40 corvettcs and 80 small steam. Never
will France have possessed so magni Gccnt fleet
The English papers note these facts, and recall
the position Of affairs when the first Napoleon
meditatcd his descent on the English coast-a crit
zeal period in the history of England, when, as the
ablest English writer's all admit, nothing bat AN
accident saved her from the most imminent peril
They observed that France is even in better condi
ton 10 deliver such sudden blow at her old en-
cmy than formerly, and infer that if the war begun
without more preparation in England, France wo' |
haye..thc advantage at the outset which she would
not fail to use TO the utmost.
The belief seems to be gaining ground, both in
England and in France, that the alliance cannot
last long. 1t is thought that Napoleon, cnyironcd
as he is by assassins, cnmcshcdin plots, and with
an opposition already bold and strong and gain
ing ground every day, among the people and in the
Legislative bodies, will bc forced into foreign
war to quiet his own people. His great prepare
tons certainly have suspicious look, aud what
Fever he OF his organs may say, tho English feel
that Louis Napoleon has inherited all the hatred
of England which rears of deadly conflict had en-
gondercd in tho breast Of his Uncle. Nor is there
much doubt that such war would be popular in
France. Neither the French army people love
the English much more than in the days of Agin-
court Waterloo. The ENTENTE CoRpIALE is
mainly humbug. Shameful as it is for two leading
chri&ian nations Of Europe, in the nineteenth
century, it is doubtless true that war with Eng
land would be the most popular step of Napoleon
reign, and that a similar readiness would be dis
played the other side Of the channel.

Tar Broollin Eagle treats It's readers to the fol
towing exhibition Of brutality and rulimism:
Senator Sumner has gone once more to Europe
and has addressed a valcdictory letter to his con-
stitucnts, in which ho says he has not recovered
from the Gaming he received and that if he had
thought he was to be so long under its inGuccc he
would have resi- ncd Int he wished to expose the
hidcous barbarism Of Slavery and considered that
his vacant chair would lie perpetual speech; or in
other words, that his sore head would be good
Black Republican capital and - such he would
nurse il as long as possible. The fact that lac drew
his salary as Senator without doing any Of the
duties. was we suspect the real motive. Although
the author of the assault has been removed to a
higher tribunal tLan public opinion, Summers
bowling has survived the event and outliycd pub
lie sympathy. A man with such an exceedingly
tender Uranium ought to keep decent tongue in
his head Democrat would have his head broken
a dozen times without whining so much over it
Had Sumner graduated at Tammany Hall lac
would have taken all he got a. a friendly joke"
Mr. Sumner is doubtless thankful that he did
graduate at any place whore budgconing n
man 20 deaths door is regarded "as a friendly
joke" The thickness OF skull that would have
qualified him to " graduate" at Tammany Hall
would not have so well fitted him to stand as a

Senatorial Que .sIon /. u.w..

The republican papers of Iowa are busily
engaged in discussing the question Of, Who
shall be chosen to I'll the place now dis
graced by Geo. w. Jones, in the u. s. SEN
ate. A large number of influential papers
have come out for Gov. Grimes. Various
other candidates are named the chief and
in fact the ouly objection we see offered
against the selection of Gov. Grimes, il the
location of his present residences Bur-
lington, which It is claimed Is too near that
of Senator Harlan, who lives at Mt Pleas
ant, somo thirty or forty miles Of. We
cannot perceive the force Of this objection.
A Senator represents the whole State, and
is not confined to one county or district.-
He reflects the State Sovereignty, and not
the local wishes Of neighborhood. What
difference can it make where his bed and
board arc situated, provided they are with
in the State9 As q Governor he governed
the State Of Iowa-not the city Of BurIing-
ton. As Senator he would vote and speak
for the State and not for the county of Des-
moines. A Representative speaks for bis dis
trict; Senator for whole State. II
Grimes is the best man for the post, his
place of domicil should not weigh q feather
pro or con. We should not care whether he
resided in Mt. Pleasant or Dubuque, on the
Missouri river or Mississippi, provided he
was otherwise the most suitable candidate.
If there be another Republican any whore
within the limits Of Iowa who has done the
cause more service; who possesses more
capacity for the discharge Of the duties Of
Senator; who will reflect greater honor on
his State; who viii carry greater weight or

In the House, on the 23d ult, Mr.. Warren
rose to . question Of privilege and offered
the following preamble and resolution: .a
Whereas, It appears from the proclams-
ton of Brigham Young, late Governor Of
Utah, and from the Presidents Message that
said Territory is now in open rebellion
against the government Of the United State;
therefore,
Resolred, That the Committee ON Terri
tories be instructed to consider and re-
port on these facts, and inquire into the
propriety Of excluding from seat on the
door of the House the delegate from that
Territory.
Mr.. Warren said that this was question
which the country and every honest man
desired should be investigated. Members
were sitting here with the delegate from a
territory which was not only morally but
legally in open rebellion against the govern
ment of the United States.
Mr.. Banks said the fact that the preamble
declared that state of war existed did not
bring the matter before the House as q ques-
ton Of privilege. He admitted that the con-
clusion affected the delegates rights, but
the facts upon which Mr.. Warren based his
conclusions did not affect his rights at all.
The speaker remarked that the preamble
might or might not be adopted.
Mr.. Bocock admitted that this was ques-
ton of privilege, but it would be for the
House to say whether the reasons assigned
should be admitted. He was not, nor was
the House, prepared to assert that the facts
charged constituted sufficient ground for
the rejection of the delegate. The House
cannot set up an inquisition Of morals or
religion. She cannot declare State or
Territory in condition Of moral rebellion,
and that, therefore, its report is not entitled
to be heard on this floor. A part Of the
State might be in rebellion, yet are not those
who are true and loyal entitled to reprcsen-
ton? But We have no facts by which we
can declare Utah in legal rebellion against
the country. Where is the Message Of the
President declaring that Utah is in state of
rebellion? 1t would be no honor to refer
this resolution to the Committee on Terrific
ries for investigation. a-..a.r
The House adopted the resolution, direct
ing the Committee on Territories to inquire
into the expediency of expelling Mr.. Bern
! hiscl, delegate from Utah.
