The South Carolinians compelled the
Judges OF the U. s. Courts and the Marshals
to resign their positions in that State. And
now the sympathisers say that the United
States has no constitutional power to en-
force the authority Of the Government OF the
United States there because South Carolina
is a Government de facto.
Well, the Government OF South Carolina
has arrested a Collector Of United States
revenue 10 that State on the charge or trea-
son to the State. Now we should Ike to
know it there be in the North craven dough-
faces who will stand by and insis. that South
Carolina has right to hang that U. S. off ;
Ger, and that the Government Of the country
has no authority to rescue him or punish his
murders?

The Southern Disunionists have tiokled
themselves, all along, with the idea that a
rupture OF the United States would be most
acceptable to England and France, and that
it would be very easy thing for the new
Southern Cenfederacy to form an alliance
with both Of these great powers. We have
already presented copious extracts from the
English journals which show that the Seces-
sionsts have reckoned without their host, a.
far as England was concerned. vs. ARE nov
able to lay before our readers the opinion Of
France, and it will be seen that it is much
the same as that Of England-"only more
sos We quote from La Presse, leading
paper Of Paris, Of December 4sh:
France cannot be otherwise than proud to
find her protection claimed or her alliance
sought by all oppressed nationalities, and
it is her interest and Der glory not to fail in
any Of the obligations that her high position
imp oses upon her. But in the present case
(that of the proffered alliance Of the South
ern States) the question Of independence is
complicated by question OF slavery, and
the one aings an unhappy shadow over the
other.
France, who abolished slavery herself,
cannot even seem to protect it in other coun
tries. Such an idea even would do her a se-
rious injury. The Americans Of South
Carolina must, then, be persuaded, that if
ever they obtain from the French Govern
ment the moral support that they demand, it
will not be as lroprie.ors, but 10 spite OF
their being propriesors Of slaves, and by vir-
tue OF the principle Acknowledged for thirty
wears, that all Governments de fdcfo shall
be recognised by the Governments Of Europe
and America.
France ought not to allow
the Southern States to dcce:vs themselves in
this matter. She cannot even lend such con-
sent as silence may afford; her duty is to
labor with all her power to prevent disco
luton. There ought not to be for US, on
the other side of the Atlantic, either South
ern Americans or Northern Americans, whose
union is important to tho equilibrium OF the
world. The American marine il not less
necessary 10 France than the Russian, Span.
ish and Italian navies, TO prevent single
Power from selzing the Empire OF the seas.
France was the first ally Of the U. States
we hope che will now be their counselor,
and expose the abyss into which they are
hurrying-an abyss In which will be buried
forever Past most glorious and a future
most hopeful. For the American Union sep.
arasion is fTiclDT; it is the murder Of q
great principle. France cannot lend hand
TO this suicide and this murder. She has
helped to make this people-she will never
help to destroy them.
Such are, we are convinced, the sentiments
al our Government.

Es- We received, yesterday, a call
from Professor BRUSH, President of the
Upper Iowa University, located at Fay
cite, Fayette County. This institution
is under the control of the Upper Iowa
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, and is probably one of the best
educational institutions in the State. II
has an able faculty, and from endorse
ments which we have seen, we have no
doubt that the entire conduct Of the Uni
versitv is most excellent. The Spring
term opens on the 4th OF April, and clo-
ses on the 24th Of June, and Mr.. BRUsH
assures us that the whole expense Of
board, washing. room rent and tuition
for the term will not exceed $50. There
are three terms in the year, and the an
nual cost of education at this institution,
for the English branches, including
board, &C., will not exceed 800, cheaper,

Fayette is but twenty five miles from
this place, and is connected with us by a
direct and good road. This is much the
nearest point for its people 10 reach the
railroad, being some / miles nearer than
Manchester. A stage line running be-
tween the two places would bring all the
travel between Fayette and Dubuque to
this place, and the through cost would
be even a little less by this route, besides
saving many miles OLA tedious stage
ride. Goods are now shipped 10 Fay
cite from Dubuque via this place, and a
little effort by our citizens would give us
the benefit of the entire Eastern commu-
nication of that section. We hope to see
our people do something in the matter.
