New Orleans is under the rule Of Vigilance

prevalence of outrages, robberies and murders for
some time psst is the assigned for this step.
While we await further adyices, we venture only
these two suggestions:

rty Of life and property which has evoked this
movement TO the Pope, the Jesuits, or to the sway
Of ignorant foreigners, stree New-Orleans is and

Between The n. Y. Herald and The " Y. Times
We are little puzzled to know what Mr.. Mason
and bis Committee on Foreign Relations are about.
The Herald of Tuesday purported to give at length
bill reported to the Senate from the Committee
ON Foreign Affairs, authorizing the President to
employ force 70 protect the rights of our citizens
from outrages by foreign nations, which bill was
stated TO be "Mr. Douglass BILL recently intro
"duced into the Senate, slightly altered The
bill given under this description consisted Of twelve
sections Of which the frst section was Douglass
bill, word for word, while the other eleven con.
tanned series Of ridiculous provisions for
the issue of letters Of reprisal for the beue-
fit of claimants against foreign governments,
directed to some officer of the Navy, TO bs
executed by some ship or ships of the Navy
against such governments, or the citizens or sub
jects Of such governments, in cases where the
claimants should have made out an tr parte case
satisfactory to the President aud the Court Of
Claims. The n. Y. Times of yesterday reprints all
this 'rigmarole ss the 4" Senate bill authorizing
''the President to make repIisals on foreign
nations" aid on the strength of it, lets
off an editorial broadside at Mr.. Mason, who is
accused of having introduced ga very extra
" ordinary bill, proposing complete revolution in
tile method of making war, substantially clothing
the President with power to seize the property Of
any foreign nation, &C., &c.
While TIE Times is thus indignant, The Herald
Of tie came day, in what it calls % q more full
"pOrt' Of proceedings on Tuesday, tells totally
different story. Mr.. MasOn's bill, in this new YER
aon Of it, becomes joint resolution, aimed at
Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and New. Granada
by nsme, with nothing at all in it about reprsals,
but giving the President discretionary authority 10
obtain reparation and redress from these nations,
and also to protect persons and property in transit
ever the Panama Railroad, or any other transit
route across the, Isthmus of Central America or
Mexico, from any sudden attack or threatened at
tack-tts authority to continue in force till the be-
ginning Of 1850.
Upon this lew version Of the report The Herald
also falls foul of poor Mr.. Mason, in its editO-
rial columns, whom it accuses Of being
afraid to put Great Britain in the same cate
CORY with Mexico and Costa RIGA. We do not per-
ceiye, however that it makes any apology for hay
ing saddled him the day before with the nonsense
which is prints as his bill, and in blowing which
up The Times expends much superhuous ammu-
milton.

The State of New-Jersey enjoys the unenyiable
distinction of being tie only Free State in the Union
which gave majority Of its votes 10 Congress, from
first to last, for the contamination Of the crime
against Kansas by forcing upon her Slave Consti-
tuition against the cearest evidence that her People
were overwhelmingly hostile thereto. Had this
been the result of genuine devotion Of majority
Of Jerse!men to tie policy of Slavery Extension,
We could more easily be recOnciled to it; but the
fact is that the State gave than Five Thousand
majority against Buchanan, at the same election
that sent nearly all these men to Congress-, aud

Eve Hundred majority And, could an election
lave been held last Winter on the naked issue of
Lecompton or ant-Lecompton, the latter would
have prevailed by not less than Ten Thousand ma
joIty Yet. in the face Of these facts in defiance
of their own consciousness that the State was irm
as rock against the course they pursued, Messrs.
Wright, Thomson, Huy Ter and Wortendyke threw
the weight of New.Jersey into the scale of the
Slavery EXtensonists and did their utmost to cast
Kansas, bound and gagged. under the feet OF the
ruffans who had fabricated Constitution which
they dared not submit TO popular vote, even with
all their unparalleled machinery for the polling of

is the question which her anti Lecompton electors
are now called to answer either through union and
