Prentice on the Situation.

It seems that the Georgia Agent Of the
Associated Press, in taking upon himself
to express an opinion on political matters
in Georgia, has called forth some y8y
strong remarks from the Louisville journal
on the. great questions now before the
South. That able paper says: -,
"'Fhe telegram which announces the
formation in Georgia Of Conservative
Union party, opposed to the acceptance OF
the military scheme Of reconStnf caon,
asserts that the new party III eject
nothing, adding as reason for tfe asser.
ton: THE people are sick and, tired OF
uncertainty, and will conform the re,
quirements Of Congress in gok d faith
This reason, in our Judgment, weakens the
assertion, instead Of strengthening it. II
the people are disposed to accept the
military Scheme to get rid of uncertainty
they will be disposed to reject the scheme,
we may reasonably infer, whenever they
find that their acceptance will merely grid
them with uncertainty, while increasing
their abasement. The disposition will end
with its reason. They will not be likely
to bow their heads in the dust for nothing.
"And they will soon find that nothing
or worse than nothing must be their re-
ward for the humiliation. This is now
indeed SO plain that we do not see how
any man Of even ordinary intelligence car
doubt it. The terms Of the so-called Law

discretion of Congress and, to say nothing

MORE DIPLOMATIC CONFEDERATION
WHEELS WITHIN WHEE1s-WHY MINISTER
CAMPBELL REsrekED.-We find the follow
ing in a late Cincinnati paper: B
We are in receipt Of some private IN
formation from Washington respecting the
Mexican mission that is interesting just
now. It is announced that Mr.. Campbell has
resigned his position as minister to Mexico,
and that his resignation has been accepted.
Our informant says that after the French
had landed in Mexico, and Maximilan had
cot somewhat established, an express com.
nany. in which nephew. Of Mr.. Seward
was interested, shipped to Vera Cruz a
large number of mules and wagons that
| found their way into the imperial service
and that the nephew Of our secretary o.
state, who was interested in the mules and
wagons. Joined the fortunes Of Macmillan
and remained with him through all his
successes and reverses even to the hour O
his capture. ~. =.
Thus much as a basis for the difficulties g
between MIR. Seward and Minister Campbell
The former gave his instructions to tn
minister not so muchin the interests o
United States as in the interests Of younIl
! Seward in Mexico, which, it is declared
are involved, to some extent, in the ransor
Juarez will receive for the person Z
! Maximilia, and his German officers. 1t
, understood in Washington that MT. CAM

Instructions he had received from the SCI

The Past and Present.

History is full of contrasts which are at
once curious aud instructive; we Will cali
the readers attention to one. A little
over half a century ago one Andrew jack
son. then a Major General Commanding
the United States forces in and around
New Orleans, was served with process OF
Conrt. while foreign foe was still In the
neighborhood Of this city, and was or.
raiSned before Judge Hall for q supposed
contempt. The old "Hero OF the herml-
tacen though made Of sterner stuff than
most most men. had but little of 'envy, the vice
of republics" and yielded at once to the
majesty Of the law. 1t was at tlme
when the passions of men ran high, JACK.
son was the idol of the people, and. r,ght
or wrong, they were ready to sustain MN
in anv measure he might adopt Under
such circumstances, the Judge, though he
found his illustrious prisoner guilty, yet
hesitated to assess the fine which ne con.
sidered due, for he feared an outburst OF
popular indignation. ~
Thereupon, the laurel-crowned hero-the
man of iron will-arOse and addressed the
court in substance as follows:
| MAY it please the Court: This arm,
which defended your beautiful city from
the rapacitv of foreign foe is also ready
to defend this court in the discharge OF Its
functions. Assess the fine. l acknowledge
The supresaacy of c:uil oper military po,rer.'
