The Cause of the San Juan Difficulty

A contemporary gives the following rather
amusing review of the trouble in the North
west, which, in the opinion Of some, threatens
a war with England. The island OF San Ju-
an. or Bellevue, is considered to be disputed
point between American and English terrific
nv. 1t is between fifteen and eighteen miles
long, by seven at the widest part, 1t Is peo-
pied chiefly by few American Squatters,
an English squire, Gan employee of the Hud-
son Bay Company and a number Of unruiy
hogs, some of whom belong to the squire
The quarrel is all about these hogs. SAID
hogs persisted in breaking through the hedges
and digging up and eating the potatoes Of Mr..
Cutter, an American setter. He gave them
that is, their masters-a fair warning and
then shot one of them, which turned out to
be a boar belonging to the squire. Mr.. Cutter
was sorry, or offered to pay; but the squire
had sworn vengeance he attempted to have
Cutter arrested and brought to Victoria, there
to be tried and transported. Now there hap
pened to be some United States troops, under
General Harney, at hand, and when British
war steamer arrived from Victoria to carry
off Mr.. Cutter, General Harney refused tode
liver him up 1t was then that the question
arose as to whose jurisdiction tire Island of
San Juan belongs. Warlike preparations now
commenced on both sides. The English hesi-
tated to strike the first blow. The Assem-
bly, in Victoria have issued long address to
Governor Douglass, setting forth that it would
be a lasting disgrace to the British name if the
Americans were not at once driven from the
Island. Governor Douglass does not know
what to do The English commander Of the
naval force in those waters is reported to have
said that ''the first broadside he would fire at
the American settlement on San Juan would
cost England more than the Island is worth
In the meantime the Americans have received
reinforcements from Steilacoom, ETC., and
commenced fortifcations. There are already
five companies of infantry and four of artillery
on the spot The Island i thus practically
annexed" Both sides are spelling for the
L9llL, Dul, dCCOluluS " ldttSL new 'oHSlAOi
Douglas, will first send to St.. James for in
| structions. If a war ensues, that boar of a
squire has been the cause Of it.
Whether the San Juan difficulty is likely
| to create hostilities between the United States
and England we do not, Of course, pretend tc
prophecy. However, should matters go tC
extremes, it is consoling to know that we are
not as helpless in the Pacific Ocean as mosr
people suppose. Annexed is correct state,
ment of our naval forces on the western side
of the American Continent and on their way

Popular Sovereignty in ths Territories

pF HaIIett. in his recent speech in the
MASSACHUSETTS Democratic Convention thus
defines Popular Sovereignty in the Terrific
ries
WIZ I'VE come to the further question of
POPULAR Sovereignty in the Territories, tnat
Popular Sovereignty Is limited 6y the coast.-
tuf;on and La,us Of the Union, and cannot go
beyond Il. When the Supreme Court nave
Construed that Constitution as applicable 70
the Territories, thst is the supreme Jaw Oh tne
land and of the Territory. This IS tne funda-
men mental AL doctrine of the Cincinnati platform,
and every Democrat who reads it, and puts
himself upon it, recognizes the doctrine OF
popular sovereignty under the Constitution,
and as he Constitution shall be construed'b
the supreme tribunal of the Union.

ANOTHER ISDIGNITY.-By reference to our
telegraphic column. 1t will be seen tna' an
American vessel, the Hazard, was recently
fired into on the coast of Africa by British
war steamer. This outrage is due to the IN
famous treaty which binds our government
to cooperate with the British government IN
Guarding the coest Of Africa to prevent the
removal of the slaves of that country from
their present condition of cruel and profitless
seryitude to one which is beneficial to the

England and France.

The fears Of a French invasion Of England
are by no means entirely oveTcoms. The
Paris correspondent of the London Times
writes as follows: -e7
"You will notice in the Presse Of last night
a Paris letter, taken from the Independence
Beige, which is not unworthy Of attention, from
the fact of its being from the pen Of person
who is known to have occasional access to the
Emperor's Cabinet at the Tuilleries and y
there believed to take his views on these sub
jects from the genius loci. According 70 the
writer, or his inspirer, the Emperor's Object IN
making the peace of Villafranca, was 70 gan
the alliance Of Austria; and his object IN the
alliance was to accomplish the mission assign
ed to the second French Empire, namely, the
abolition Of the treaties Of 1916, and the low
ering OF the moral denomination Of England
The Emperor Is expected at the Camp oil
Chalons on the 10th inst, and ut Paris on the
25th, and it is stated as positive that he will
60 to Cherbourgh in the course Of the month
Of October
The Paris correspondent ofths Morning
Herald says that the public mind is depressed
BY some vague foreboding, and . sense ot
impending evil The preparation going on in the
dockyards on both sides of the Channel, have
revived the rumors of war with England. A
great impetus has been given to these rumors
Of war by Paris letter in the Independence
Beige, which plainly tells US that the Emperor
made peace with Austria merely for the pur-
pose Of putting down the naval supremacy
Of England, and unless they quietly submit 70
have their naval estimates fixed by France
here must be war.
A report, that the French Emperor had Or
dered the immediate construction OF twenty
iron-plated frigates, had added to the alarm Of
England. 1t turned out, however, that II
was an order for iron plates for the embrazurea
of Cherbourgh. But this, Of ITSELF indicates
that France is fortifying her coasts in nanne'
that looks to the contingent of rupture Witl
some great maritime power, and that powe
can be no other than. Ereand. beside
France having no colonies of any exten
except Algeria, can be creating an immens
marine for no other than offensive purposes
Knowing these things it is natural for Eng
land to be on her guard.
