which the English press has conjured up in At
rica.~ If England declines to assict on Euro
pean grounds in the reconstruction of Italian
independence, it may fairly become question
whether she shall be allowed to plead Europe
an grounds for her retention of positions. like
Gibraltar, Malta, and the Ionian Islands, to
which she can advance no shadow of natural
right; and still more fairly may it, therefore,
become question whether, in defence of those
positions, she can be permitted to dictate to an
independent State like Spain how far her arms
shall be carried in vindication of her national
honor and safety on the barbarian coast of AT
RIGA. This is the seed of mischief which sleeps
at the core of the Moorish difficulty, and it
abundantly justi6es the deep concern with
which the progress of affairs in that direction
is now watched on both sides of the British
Channel.

OLD Brown AND PARDON If ANYBODY ever
did entertain so insane an idea as that Governor
Wise intended to let old Brown get farther off
than the end of stout piece of hemp, the En-
gIirer of yesterday effectualy settles the matter
The Enquirer shows that Gov. Wise has no
power to pardon him, except with the consent
of the Legislature, nor to reprieve him beyond
the term of its next session. Should the Gov
ernor even do the little in his power towards
staying the hand of justice, it would not be
without the decided protest Of ninetenths of
the people of Virginia.
y More patience than has been shown towards
the murderous old wretch by the people of Vir-
GINA, all history will be searched in vain to
find, when the circumstances from first to last
are considered. The emissary of fanaticism
whose very existence is treason to the whole
country, he is not only convicted felon, found
in the act of murder and outrage of the foulest
kind, but the pioneer of malignant mass of
enemies, who would leap at the impuRity of his
crime to repeat it on every border. Clemency
is no mercy to them. 1t would teach them
nothing, or the lesson they learned would be
the safety of closer approach than they have
yet ventured.
From the first we regretted, as we yet regret,
that the whole gang were not strung up along
the railroad, that all confederates and sym
pathizers who might sneak by where they ex
pected to aid, should see the quick vengeance
awaiting such enterprises, and that the spectacle
might be spoken of by more than the small
throng who will witness the executions.
1t is insult, and threat to ask of our authori-
ties, al some Northern journals are asking,
that such wrong as was done at Harper's Ferry
be pardoned, and we no more believe that
Henry A. Wise purposes throwing moments
delay into the scale of retributive justice, than
we do that the Legislature of Virginia will ex-
tend its prerogative of PARDON etersburgh
