FRANCE CHECKED.

The arrogant, vain, pompons, over
hearing Emperor of the French, has met
n check from Prussia. He has demanded,
rs n par, Of the settlement Of the Ger
man quarrel the extension Of the from
tier of France TO the Rhine. Prussia,
flushed with the conquest OF Austria
and some minor Germanic States, re-
plies that the demand is inadmisSable.
The French Emperor affects astonish'
ment, frowns threatening irown, thinks
of the needle-gnn, and - comes TO
his senses. The quarrel between
Prussia and Austria was no affair OF the
French, and why France should profit
by it, Is singular inquiry, and, to an
American, difficult TO understand. We
trust that Prussia will teach the Empe-
ror that he cannot longer domineer over
Europe. His crest is little too tall,
and the needle-gun would, in trial at
arms. lower it to an extent that would
prove highly acceptable 10 all Europe.
The alliance between victorious Prussia
and VIcToR EMANUEL is the very salt OF
Italian liberty. 1t has only existed by
the suffrance of NAPOLEON. The Prus-
sian defiance of him is the opportunity
Of Italy. She will now assert her indie
pendence, and rely on the needle-gun to

EXCELLENT NEWS.

Last nights dispatches from Philadel-
mia are pleasant, indeed, Massachu-
sets and South Carolina went into the
Convention arm in arm amidst n stormy
nnroar of applause. After the events OF
the past five years, such scene is both
surprising and acceptable. VALLANDIG-
HAM has done wise thing in retiring
from the Convention. No matter what
we may think of him in the South, his
presence in that body would have pro-
duced unpleasant consequences lie IS
very obnoxious to the Conservative Re
publieans and War Democrats, by the
extreme ground he occupied during the
war. They are willing TO consult and
rraternize with the nen of South Caro-
lima and Georgia who threw shot and
she'll a; them, but not with those IN the
North who encouraged the South by the
artillery of words. We have no doubt
that WooD and men of that class Will
see the proprieiy of initiating NALLAN-
prCHAN's example The under jaws OF
our radical enemies all over the country
are hanging very low this morning
They cannot avoid recognizing in the
success Of the Convention, the dread
full dawning of a Judgment day that
will pronounce their doom. Like some
disease thar admits of no cure bnt time,
the radical pest on the body polite Is
about to disappear Its only hope Is in
the failure of the Phihdelphia Conven-
ton. Aggravation is its susiensnee-
Peace terminates its existence
Since the foregoing was written, we
have received the ST. Louis papers Of
Yesterday, containing the resignation of
Woop. The following is his letter;

Hon. james R. Doolittle. Chairman. etc.
DEAR Sir: / am earnestly DESTROYS for
the entire success of the movement pro-
posed to be initiated by the Convention
tomorrow. If successful, the result to
the country will be of the most salutary
character and it cannot be successful if
its proceedingssshall he disturbed by any
cause whatever. / am informed that
serious disagreement is likely 10 be made
to exclude some delegates myself in
cluded, because our political record is
distasteful TO the Radicals and their SYM
pathizers. Now, although feel conf
dent that such an outrage would not be
perpetrated by the Convention, and al
though | have nothing TO regret or take
back as to my course during the war;
and do not admit the right Of any one to
raise that question in the Convention,
yet am too much devoted TO the accom-
plishment of the high and patriotic oh
iect in view to permit my presence there
TO be made the means Of disturbing its
deliberations, or an excuse for assault
Ivy its enemies outside therefore, ! shall
not attend the Convention % delegate.

imposed npon the Southern people, we

Provoked as they are, oppressed as

interfere with the rights of the people,
but attend to their own affairs. They
