are not to be treated as gentlemen but as black
guards
"My son has this day eaned the senior editor Of the
Confcderdtion-and now brand him as a convc ed liar
and sandercr, and turn him loose"
The assump,ion on Mr.. Yaucey's part, that am not
to be treated gentleman" the cheap of
coward who seeks refuge from the responsibility usua
among gentlemen" IL is an advertisement OF the fact
that be won't fight, If called on by me. Under such
circumstances have right to ask friend to put him
self in position which might compromise him
and this, Mr. Yancey well knew when he eau.

venges insult offered him, not by but words and
advertises himself poltroon and coward by publish

FOREIGN INTERVENTION IN MEXICO.

We have the best authority for stating that the Mex;
can question is the point Of being peremptoriy set
tied by decisive intervention OF four OF the great pow
ers deeply interested in the restoration OF order
throughout the domnons Of our distracted neighbor
France Eugland, Spain and Prussia have signed a
yenton for the paccation OF Mexico TO which they in
vte the adhesion of the United States but which they
propose carry into effect without that adhesion should
the United States refuse it.
The bases of federation for all religious opinions, and
of modified establishment for the Roman Catholic
Church, are understood 10 have been already accepted
by the Constituencies under JOafez on the part
and by the Clerical party under Mamon the other
An armstce of twelve months duration is TO be decar

Of order At time to be hereafter fixed the people of
Mexico are to be called upon TO e ct between he prin
cples represented by the two factions and the respec
tive leaders pledge themselves TO resign all their authori
~ and arms into the hands of the Government thus
sgnated under the sanction OF the intervening Powers.
The grounds Of this action already submitted TO the
Administration at Washington are that the party of Ju
arez which might have been established the Supreme
Executive more than year ago under the of the
treaty proposed by Senior 0campo through Mr. McLane

capacity Of conquering power, aud that the United
States have definitely abdcated their pretensons 10 aid

manner has proved itself dependent upon isolated in
erventon by Spain which 10 every point of view
desirabe and that the interests Of the subjects OF the
intervening Powers and of civilization generally
longer be left at the mercy of the partisan warfare which
has ragged for six years in Mexico and has reduced the
country to the very brink Of chaos.
Il is for to point out to our readers the
the gravity aud importance Of this the part Of the
European States. Our own government Is understood
to have announced that while pacific Intervention Of
the sort contemplated il it fails command the assist

Gentlemen Your letter Of the Goth instant, desiring
TO know the position intend to take in the Presidential
contest has been received and avail myself oil the ear
lieSt moment to reply.
have purposey avoided committing myself to the sup
port of either Breckinridge Douglas in the hope that
a compromise would be agreed upon by the two Con-
ventOns recently held in State that would be homo
be and mutually satisfactory TO both wings Of the Dem
ocratic party. All hope Of adjustment having now
failed have no hesitation in declaring that my support
will be given Douglas and johnson. The division that
has occurred in the Democratic party could have been
and think ought to have been, avoided. There was
no more necessity for rupture in 1860 than there was
in 1856 The division has, however taken place. The
breach is widening daily aud is useless to enquire
into the which have produced these depoable
results Such discussion will not restore union and
harmony but will of necessity, add to present embar
rassments and will only tend to make certain the eac
ton of ctionl candidate to the Presidency, whose
success all parties must dcplore.
sincerely hope therefore, that the discussions which
seem now VI ayodable between the friends Of Breckiu
ridge and Douglas will be marked by prudence and mode
ration and after this struggle has been ended, spirit o
concation and compromise will restore union and har
mony in our party. Resp ct'ully,
