whom the Pope is indebted for the shadowy
vestige of sovereignty he still exercises over
the revolted territories comprising the patri-
mony of st. Peter. We cannot pause, for
instance, to examine Garibaldis muster roll.
We do not think that the foreign names there
recorded prove anything. "Libertas'' would
find, were he to examine Gen. Scott's muster
roll, good many foreign names-E English,
French, Irish, etc. Would he infer from that
that the war Of Mexico was instigated by the
allied powers, was fought solely for their
benefit, and received no respectable amount
of sympathy with the American people?
This question, divested of all unnecessary
mysticism, and placed on purely political
grounds, is simple one. If the people of
the Romagna, or majority of them, declare
that they will not live under the papal gov
ernment, it is not to be supposed that the
head Of a religion which breaches mercy and
brotherly love will consent to let loose upon
them foreign army-to subject them to the
horrors and outragcs of war-and all in the
name of the Holy Catholic Church. The
Holy Father will have furnished some evidence
that he is in truth Gods Vicegerent upon
earth, if, In this emergency, he rises above all
human frailties, and witnesses the departure
of his temporal power without a murmur.

WAR BREWING WITH MEXICO. - Three
distinct movements, decided upon by oul
Government within the last few days, look
towards open hostili.ies with Mexico at nc
distant date. First, is the transfer of our
troops from Utah to California and the north
western borders of Mexico; second, we have
the late orders in response to the demands Of
Gov Houston, directing military force upon
the Rio Grande, with instructions to pursue
and destroy Cortinas and his band aohereoe,
they may be Jound-cl clearly contemplating an
invasion of the Mexican territory on the
southeast; and thirdly, Minister McLane has
been dispatched for Vera Cruz, intrusted with
discretionary power over the Gulf squadron,
and with ample authority and instructions
to protect American citizens and property"
in case of an attack upon the latter city, as
threatened by Miramon.
We may naturally expect these armed
demonstrations will provoke war with Mexico.
The Mexicans will no doubt quit fighting
among themselves, and unite against Uncle
Sam. After sanguinary war, we shall have
to seize two or three of the Northern States of
Mexico as Indemnity" and for the further
spread of the peculiar institution"

WILL DOUGLAS Bolt? - The Chicago
Times, Mr.. Douglas organ, publishes very
significant article upon the platform which is
to he laid down at Charleston for the Demo-
cratic Convention. 1t charges Mr.. Bright
with the intention of constructing this plat
form so as to kill off Mr.. Douglas, and declares
that no man nominated upon Mr.. Bright's
platform can win the Presidency, and further
President who does not adhere to the doctrine
of Popular Sovereignty. The whole tone and
bearing of the article points to the conclusion
that Mr. Douglas friends mean to "bolt'' from
the nomination, if they are not permitted to
have their way in the Convention.

GERR1T SMITH DEMANDING DAMAGES. -
Gerrit Smith, having recovered from his attack
of insanity, has had read to him the manifesto
of the New York Democratic Vigilant Associ-
ation-otherwise known as the Fifth Avenue
Hotel Commttee-in which he was charged
with being connected with the Harper's Ferry
affair, and also with secret association for
various bloody purposes in relation to slavery.
The result is that Mr.. Smith has instructed
his counsel to bring suits against the Fifth
Avenue gentlemen for libel, laying his
damages at $50, 900 in each case. tits limited
that the publishers of the manifesto may be
sued also. Mr.. Smiths son in-law, in letter
to Mr.. Watts Sherman, leading member Of

retraction which the case calls for. The

Coop SUGGESTIONS. Dubuque Herald
suggests that our Legislature require attor-
neys to pay over money duo their clients or
be held indictable for felony. Strange as it
may appear, such law as this is proven
requisite by numerous fraudulent transac-
tions on the part of attorneys. We think
the law would serve to purify the ranks of
the profession from many dishonest nen
who now disgrace it.
The Herald also suggests that every party
to suit should be permitted to appear as
his own attorney in any court in this State.
We agree with it that there is no good
reason why party should be compelled to
employ an attorney in every triaing case, or
in cases where he feels he does not need the
services of one. In suits on promissory
notes or simple book accounts he ought not
to be subjected to an attorneys fee in adj
dtion to the costs of court. No high-mind.
ed lawyer will object to having these sug-
gestions Incorporated in our laws.

"CoMING EVENTS CAST THEIR SHADOWS
BEFORE. ."--Gov. Seward lives at Auburn
Douglas at Chicago. Auburn voted for city
officers on the 9Th inst, and elected Repub-
lican Mayor and city officers by four hundred
majority. On the same day, Chicago voted
for city officers, and elected the whole Repub-
lican ticket by 1850 majority. The home
of Gov. Seward has sustained him triumph
antly. The home of Cataline Douglas has
repudiated him by an overwhelming majority.
Such is the verdict of the people upon their
most prominent citizens.

~ The Hon. Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois,
was in New York city, a few days ago, and
made speech to the Republicans, at the
Cooper Institute. The great room was
crowded to excess, and the accomplished
speaker made splendid effort. The Tribune
says his speech was one of the happiest and
most convincing political arguments ever
made in that city, and was addressed to a
crowded and most appreciating audience.
Since the days of Clay and Webster, no man
has spoken to a larger assemblage of the
intellect and mental culture of that city. Mr..
Lincoln is one of the statesmen of the age.
