Pure metals shine the brighter, the
harder they are ribbed. The Lord
alone can prepare our hearts to receive
the splendor of light, whereby we are
enabled to shine forth to his glory. If
sharp trials are necessary for the ac-
complishment of this glorious end, what
a mercy from God when he sends
them. ...-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-Lieut Gen. Scott is to
sail on Tuesday for the seat Of difficulties our
Northwestern Boundaries. He Is to be accom- ani-
ed by Adjutant General Thomas, Lieut. Col G.
w. Lay, and Assistant Surgeon Chas. HI. Crane.
Upon his arrival AZ San Francisco he is to be taken
on to his destination by special steamer unless the
regular one for carrying the mails is ready to de-
part. The General is also empowered to control
the movement Of mail steamers after reaching the
Strait or Gulf of Georgia.
The President has said that our right to the
Island Of San Juan is clear, but the Senate rarely
Expresses extreme claims at the hazard of war Hence
Gen. Scott's hands are not probably tied up with
instructions but in the hope of pacific solution
or with a view TO deferring a decision, LARGE
margin of discretion will doubtless be given him

versy' between this country and Great Britain. az

the contrary, both Governments are still animated

Spirit of the Morning Press.

The Consultation descants upon Republican
love for foreign citizens, and alludes to certain
ugly historical facts which places the s.intense
affection" which that party has suddenly become
possessed Of, in rather questionable light. The
Constitution at the same time assures our adopted
feilOw-citiaens that they need not fear that the
present Administration their old and trusty friend
General Cas-, and the Democratic party will ever
yield one iOta Of their rights, fail to afford them
any risk or cost
The Constitution also discusses political con-
.istency, attributing that quality in an eminent
degree to the Democratic party.
