too carly to say tia. lilo Democracy in that
country are frightened ont Of their toots by the

understood among The f,itlful that Gen. Jo

the bidding Of a man in whom they
have no confidence; he is sorely mis-
taken, At least as far as ! can Judge the
character of the Hollander; and let me
add furthermore that the proceedings
Of Henry p. Scholte at DesMoines are
not surprising. 1t is perfectly consistent
