eeade and commerce would be restored. Then
t Austria should not ultimately agree to the
eession Of Venetia he can bold Mexico on bis
own account, after he has secured its conquest
by . British and Spanish alliance. He knows
would be as Important to him as Cuba and
Porto Rico to Spain-better for France even
than Algeria, which cost her SO much blood and
treasure.
Impressed with these ideas, Napoleon, who
had previously failed to induce England to
unite with him in raising the Southern blockade,
proposed to Lord Palmerston''and the Spanish
government to take advantage Of the civil war
in the United States to compel Mexico to pay
her debts TO the three Powers, and at
the same time to make that the pretext
Tor overthrowing the republic and substituting
a monarchy. If the breach in the American
Union should be permanent, the new kingdom
would be firmly established and become lever
TO undermine democratic institutions on this
continent, Sor the common benefit Of the despots
OF Europe. But II our Union should be soon
restored, Napoleon would have little or nothing
% lose froak our retribution. What would he
care il ambitious Spain should be curtailed Of
Cuba and whatever else she owns in the Western
World? II was by these possessions her national
independence was sustained, and the loss of
them would only render her the more sub
servient to his interests, if il did not enable him
TO achieve hers conquest and annexation, in
which the elder Napoleon failed AS for Eng
land, nothing would so delight him as to get
her into war with the United States, by which
she would be denuded of Canada and all her
North American possessions. Whatever would
weaken her would he so much added to his
own strength.
Spain caught at the bait, expecting, by hook
or by crook, to obtain a footing once more in
her ancient dominions; and England was will
ing to seize upon any plan to give new life to
her ruined trade But it appears that Palmers-
ton now scents the hidden purposes Of Napo-
leon, and hence is keeping somewhat back, by
refusing 10 contribute any land forces, and by
announcing that England will ratify the substi-
sutton Of q prince for president only on the
condition that the Mexicans themselves freely
vote for it. But no one knows better than does
Napoleon how to procure votes with the aid of
IAN army Of occupation. Englands intention is
to take as little active part as possible in the
Mexican affair, her object being to get the
-chestnuts taken out of the fire by the arms Of
France and Spain. But Napoleon has vast
Interests at stake-not only the aggrandizement
OF France and the recovery of her trade and
revenue. but to prevent revolution at home by
the employment of the troops in foreign war,
and he is at the bottom Of the whole Mexican
scheme

Lo al Aft a ir 8.

We had call, recently, from our friend
Col. j. n, STEVENS, of the Glencoe Reg~
lister, who looks hale and hearty as back
woods farmer ought to look, who has q good
farm, and delights in its tillage, besides ed-
itipg a rural newspaper. The people of
Mcleod county are fortunate in having a
man of such ago-a>head and liberal spirit,
to direct their enterprises and stimulate
their energies. No other man in the county
has done so much towards drawing atten-
tion to their superior land, or labored 50
faithfully or spent so much money to attract
settlers to Mcleod county. He has sus.
tanned q really excellent county newspaper,
during all the hard times, freely giving his
time and money to the one object of induce
ing emigration to the Northwestern coun-
ties. We trust that Col. STEVENS will live
to reap some of the benefits which must
eventually follow his earnest efforts to pro"
mote the material prosperity of the COM
munity In which ne resides.
We learn from Colonel Stevens that the
crops throughout the entire distance be.
tween Glencoe and the river are Of the most
cheering promise. The wheat never looked
better, and there has been up to this time
sufficient moisture for everything in the
ground.
The Ginseng trade has opened up with
renewed vigor in the Big Woods. There is
large capital invested in this trade, which
gives employment to large number
of persons. In Young America DR..
KENNEDY has large establishment
for drying the root. There are also drying
establishments at Rockford, owned by Nr.
FARNHAM, ard at Watertown, owned by
MIR. LEWIS. The price paid for the green
root is about FIVE cents per pound. When
ready for shipment we suppose it is worth
over fifty cents per pound.
