The Germans throughout tho country are
just fairly arousing themselves to the clear
apprehension Of the snon- interventionn pol
icy Of the Democracy. No interference With
slavery-les it spread, let il grow, lot itrnls.
That is Democratic ground in tho Unitsd
States; but that, they say, was precisely the
ground assumed BY the tyrants Of Europe 10
favor OF despotism. No interference with
the privileges Of the aristocracv them
alone, no question Of the right Of kings, no
agitation for liberty. These were the doc.
trines taught in Europe BY the opponents Of
OF democracy, and the same doctrines arc
advocated here BY Democrats.
A meeting Of German Republicans in In
diana made the the following excellent pre-
>ssntAtion Of their position:
Resolved, That we oppose the principle
contained 10 the Cincinnati Platform in
inteffsreuoe with Slayery-our principle is,
no intssfmsnse with Liberty, BY the Pres
ident, By Congress, or by the Federal Court.
RSsposlaisn ~ the BATS more Head
holders.
The proposition Of the Baltimore holders
Of Keokuk city bonds, referred to in the
Council proceedings, was, to take forty per
sent. in railroad stock and sixty per cent. 10
new twenty year bonds bearing six per cont.

The news i 81 great importance, and an
nouucss tbs hrst important blow ID Italy.
The allied ana Austrian forces have INST
and the latter been defeated. The battle
took plass at Monticello, town in Austrian
Italy.
The Austrians were $4,000 strong and
made - atsAek, but after severe engage
msnt wsrs obliged to retreat. The Allied
army lost 100. The Austrian loss is esti-
mated Ct 1000.
Tbs battle took place on the 2lst. The
Austrians, under Gen. Stadion, attacked the
posts OF Gen. Barquay d'Hilliers. They
were driven back BY Gen. Forey's division
after furious combat, lasting four hours.
The allies did not pursue the Austrians. 2OO
Austrians were captured and taken to Mar
settles.
The Austrian account Of the battle differs
widely from the above.
The aotud force Of the French is not
stated, but II il reported 1t 5000, besides q
regiment OF Sandman cavalry.
A bulletin iseued BY tho Ssrdinian Govern
ment snnonncss that the extreme left OF the
Sandman army, under Gen. Baldini, had

The Democratic Policy In IoWa.
The Davenport Neps, in speaking Of the
Locofoco convention to come OF this month,
says that il 10 not particular o. TO who may
be the nominees, but insists on straight-out
platform and bold endorsement Of the
Democratic Administration. And it arguss
the matter in this plausible and forcible
style:
II We do not, Ne give an implied assent to
the accusations and csnaures heaped by the
abolitionists upon the hundreds OF staunch
and faithful Democrats who are engaged il
administering the Government. II We do not
We might - we'll give up and surrender lows
Ct oncs - being irretricvably Republican
State. Il 10 upon that ground-the policy Of
the present Democratic Administrations tina
the battle 10 TO be fought; tits against tina
policy the Republican party will make ii
fercest onslaught, aud 10, the Democrat,
OF Iowa, should como fairly and bravely NJ
to tho fight, and 20 before the people sus
tanning the President's Administration. L
We do not, We are whipt. Thu full Demo
cratic strength Of lows cannot DO rallie,
unless We do it. Whenever the Democrac,
have stood by the Administration, they hav,
been successful whenever they failed t,
support the elected and acknowledged hea,
OF the party, they have been beaten.
Col. Heath has revived his paper At Du
buque, and will Of course accept for the Ad
ministration nothing short Of complete on
dorscment Of it, policy and re.afhrmatiol
Of the Cincinnati Platform, with the Dre
Scott decision annexed.

young man yet, ambitious, and with fine
field before him. II Iowa remains Repub

tinue to exercise 30 important an influence

here, he will have, with his fne natural abil-
