Government had telegrsphed to Vienna

q manifesto to accompany her declara-
tons of war against Piedmont. There
was an active movement of French

FRANCE.--A minister Of police is to be
established, after the fashion of the first
empire. The French army of observa-
ton on the Rhine will consist Of eight
divisions of Cavalry and as many of In
fantry. Eight Steam frigates, filed with
troops, left Toulon on the 18th for Genoa
The French arms, on the slope Of the Alps,
will consist Of sixteen divisions of In
fantry and four Of Cavalry. The Infantry
go by land. Fourteen of the twenty two
battalions Of ChasSeurs are to form part
OF the army of observation of tho Alps.
Genoa is to be occupied as the basis OF
operations, whence they can threaten Susa,
which viii also be fortified and made the
general depot for the troops that arrive
through the Alpine Pass. The French
troops experienced some difficulty in eros
sing Mount Gents. Four thousand work
men were employed in cleaning away The
immense masses of snow. 1t was expec-
ted by the end Of the week that 5000
French troops would be in Italy.

TIE ANNEXATION QUEsTIoN.-The peo-
pie Of Southern Nebraska have decided to
elect Delegates to the Kansas COnstitu-
tional Convention, and are getting their
candidates into the field. While we have
been, and still sre. in favor Of the annex
alton Of the South Platte country, yet we
have cur doubts as to the propriety Of
this election movement. Congress should
have first effected the annexation. The
Administration. backed by the Senate,
is unfaVorable to the admission of Kan
sas a. Free State, and she will not ap-
ply for admission otherwise. Any pre-
text. therefore, to keep her ont, will be
eagerly seized upon. II Constitution
be presented, defining the Platte as the
northern boundary Of the State. they will
reject il on that account; and besides. the
protest which NortherHt Nebraska would
send up, would exert an influence against
il. The Constitution may be SO framed,
that Congress may accept It with tht
Pistte as the northern boundary, or with
the present northern boundary Of Kansas,
at their option. But IL the Nsbrasks
Delegates are SLOWED a voice in the Con.
vention, they may possess q controlling
influence, and 90 use it as to make thu
Constitution Objectionable to the peopl,
Of Kansas, in case she is admitted with
out the addition Of Southern Nebraska
and Il their Delegates are not allowed 4
voice, The people Of Southern Nebraska
will object strongly to Constitution
which they had no part in framing
Agsin: the vote Of Lower Nebraska
when the Constitution is submitted to
vote Of the people, may decide for o.
against it. II their vote defeats the Con
stitutiOn, the people Of Kansas will com
plain that their will has been defeated BY
che people of another Territory; or, i
their vote decides in favor Of it, and they
are rejected as portion Of the new State
the people Of Kansas will again complain
that . Consultation has been forced upor
them, which majority of them have re
jected. Turn the subject every way, ant
the probabilities are, that this movemen
will only operate to keep Kansas out o
the Union for several years longer
which is g contamination not very de
voutly to be wishe,l for. The only way
to have done the thing satisfactorily
would have been to annex Lower Ne
braska first. Il has not been done, anC
there are but two alternatives-to keey
Lower Nebraska out, or stay out our
selves. So it looks to us; but our fear
may be groundless. We hope they are

Row IN NEBRAsKA CrTY.-A Meeting
was held in Nebraska City. a few days
since, to take measures for securing a re-
presentation Of Lower Nebraska in the
Kansas Constitutional Convention. A
row occurred, in which one man was
dangerously wounded. The ringleadert
were John Calhoun and Maclsan, oil
Kansas notoriety. They are bitterly op-
posed to annexation. and adopt their fa-
vorite mode Of argument to prevent it
They are below par in Kansas, but had
hoped to have an opportunity to play
their old tricks in Nebraska. Wonder i
the people Of Nebraska City are not be
ginning to regret that they invited thes'
