For the Patriot.

For the Patriot
MEssEs. EDITORS We have heard much
about secession and coercion, and what should
be done, and what should not be done. From
part OF Mr.. Lincoln's address, think he has
more confidence in party majority than the
opinion of the Supreme Court of the United
States, in which l differ with him, and if
were in his situation, l would get the opinion
of the Supreme Court on the subject
of secession before l said or did much
about coercion fer in many cases haste
makes waste, and many others, like my
self, have more respect for the opinion of
the Supreme Court than in party majority.
or the opinion of party President, and think
the Court was created to settle disputes, and
to protect minorities. ] merely make these
remarks for you and the lawyers to think
about, hoping you and they will have things
settled by arbitration or law, without going
to war. l think that if Mr.. Lincoln and Da-
Wis would let things remain as they are, and
give the people time to take a sober, second
thought, they would then settle the matter
without law or war. S. w. ADHESION.

We have it on the most unquestionable
authority that, at the interview between
Louis Napoleon and the Commissioners from
South Carolina, some months ago, the EN-
peror-among other significant remarks, the
whole tendency of which was to show his
want of sympathy with secession-said, ad-
dressing the Commissioners, France feels a
great interest in the condition of things in
Mexico" These various indications combiu-
ed, point Enthusiastically TO an application
from the present Government of Mexico to
mother Spain, Catholic France and CONNER
cial England, for separate or joint protec-
ton against the aggressive spirit of "Los
Gringos de Ia Sad" who. they fear, come to
ensiave their people.
A similar appeal was answered when made
by Syria and 5000 Frenchmen ia Asia Minor.
The Indications seem to point unerringly to
a joint occupation of the Valley of the Rio
Graude by French troops, paid by Mexico,
10 900 of whom could leave next Sunday
from Bordeaux, on the Great East
ern.- Wash. Cur. N. 7. Times.

INGs OF THE PEOPLE in Tennessee we are
about holding an election throughout the
State to reorganize the militia 1t comes off
on the 18th of April. We respectfully sug-
gest that all the papers in the State opposed
to coercion, call upon the people to take a vote
on that day for or against Convention. 1t
would be voted for in the State by a large
majority. This would be q sufficient mani
festation to induce Gov. Harris to order an
election for delegates, provided that The ma
jority of the State should be clearly for it;
and the people would then have fair chance
10 place Tennessee in her proper position.
We think. since the Inaugural Address of
Mr.. Lincoln has been read. that the people
are perfectly satisfied that the time has come,
and they only want chance to manifest it.
