The QUARREL BETWEEN FRANCE AND PORTUGAL
The Liverpool Mercury thus states the current difficulty
between France and Portugal:
The statement that two French sheof war have been
sent the Tagus to support the demand of the French
Ambassador at Lisbon for compensation for the seizure
of the French SLAYER Charles Georges is now said to be
perfectly true. Portuguese court of Justice has pro-
nOunced the seizure lawful because the Charles Georges
merchantmen of Nantes, was in reality transporting
slaves contrary to the provisions Of the international
treaty The French government says that it was mere
y aiding the auda6e scheme of popuating the French
West Indian colonies with free blacks This raudu
lent scheme the French government out of respect to
the expressed Indignation of the civilized world has tar
Oily promised to renOunce But of the points
insisted upon that the Charles Georges was seized by
the Portuguese before this promise had been given and
the French government processes be thoroughly
resolved to exact the compensation. A Paris journal
remarks that the difficulty will be very easily settled il

power 1t is believed that Portugal is couLenanced in

ful and convincing address, sustaining the
principles of the Democratic party, and the
Kansas policy of the National Administro-
tion During his address he was freopon,-
iy interrupted by enthusiastic cheers from the
members Of the Convention. After tho Con
'oN'ioh had transac ted considerable amount
OF miscellaneous business. the Hon. II

their tone and sentiment, and in favor of H.
immediate adj mission of Kansas ur,o, -,

were adopted by vote of one hupdrsd and

iy brilliant triumph for the Democracy Of

proves that our noble old Commonwealth Is
stiil entitled to occupy the proud position of
keystone of the Federal Arch.
After the adoption of the resolutions N.
Convention proceeded to place in nomination
candidate for Judge of the Supremo Cour,
and candidate for Canal Commissioner. to
be supported by the party at the general cleo
ton next October. On the first ballot. Hon
Wm. A. Porter. of Philadelphia, was nomi-
mated for Supreme Judge. On the third boI-
lot, Wesley Frost, of Fayctte comfy .
placed IN nomination for Canal Commissioner.
Judge Porter is one of the ablcst legal men
