e risks than benefits; for while the commerce of England and the whole of Europe will be admitted, with our own, to the free ports of the new confederation, the Northern confederation will immediately seek, in an exclusive alliance with England, a counterpoise to the Southern agreement with France. War will inevitably flow from this antagonism. Having as allies slave proprietors, we will be forced, by the nature of things, to defend their institutions and to tolerate their plan of annexing Mexico and the Island of Cuba, which the North up to this time has alone prevented. France will never lay herself open to such a course. She ought not to allow the Southern States to deceive themselves in this matter. She cannot even lend such consent as silence may afford; her duty is to labor with all her power to prevent a dissolution. There ought not to be for us, on the other side of the Atlantic, either Southern Americans or Northern Americans, but States whose union is important to t

ich France can have, in certain events, any more extended rights and duties. It is Louisiana as it geographically existed when it was ceded by us to the United States in 1803. The treaty of cession guaranteed to the French colonists and their descendants the enjoyment of their property and of their civil and religious rights. The vast and rich territory of Louisiana has formed since then, besides the State itself of Louisiana, the States of Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, parts of Alabama and Wisconsin and the Territories of Minnesota, Nebraska and Kansas. Every time that one of these has had to be organized or admitted to the Confederation, the slave proprietors have invoked their rights guaranteed to them by the treaty of 1803. The right of Arkansas, founded on this argument, was recognized by John Quincy Adams himself in 1836. The Governor of Nebraska invoked the same argument in vetoing the bill to prohibit the introduction of slaves into the Territory, and this doctrine is also t

and this murder. She has helped to make this people — she will never help to destroy them. Such are, we are convinced, the sentiments of our Government. Repeal of Personal Liberty bills. The Boston Journal (Republican) learns from Vermont that there is a strong feeling in favor of a repeal of the Personal Liberty law of that State, and adds: The effort to secure such a repeal in the last Legislature was not made under the most favorable auspices. It was urged as a party measure by leading Democrats, who seemed to be actuated more by a spirit of party propagandism than by a desire that Vermont should fulfill to the letter and spirit her confederate obligations. But the Legislature, nevertheless, referred the matter to the Commissioners on the Revision of the Statutes for their opinion. It is understood that the Commissioners will advise a repeal, and that Gov. Fairbanks favors this action. Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island, has publicly declared himself i

re, nevertheless, referred the matter to the Commissioners on the Revision of the Statutes for their opinion. It is understood that the Commissioners will advise a repeal, and that Gov. Fairbanks favors this action. Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island, has publicly declared himself in favor of the immediate abrogation of the Personal Liberty bill of that State, and he thinks that the General Assembly, as soon as they convene (in January,) will without hesitation second his own sentiments by repealing the obnoxious statute. The Rhode Island Personal Liberty act, in the opinion of legal men, is so constructed as not to conflict directly with the provisions of the Constitution. Its spirit and intention, however, no one can doubt. Like the enactments of other States, its aim is to embarrass and obstruct the execution of the constitutional provision for the rendition of fugitives, and in this respect is a violation of the sacred compact.

hich is recruited chiefly from country planters, whose principal wealth is in slave property, and whose revenue lies in the produce of the soil. But, by strange contrast, while Southern agriculturists are the most determined in favor of slavery, the most fanatical Abolitionists are to be found among the agriculturists of the North. The sea-coast towns, on the contrary, are strongly conservative. New York gave 25,000 majority against Lincoln; New Orleans voted for Bell, and Charleston, Savannah and all other Southern ports have, to a certain extent, opposed the tide of schism proclaimed at Augusta and Columbia. The reason is that the maritime towns understand better than all others that the prosperity of the Union depends upon union, and that in rupture the basis of its success is destroyed! Commercial instinct rises in them to the height of political intuition, and merchants and traders are at this time the truest patriots. France has in the United States the same interest

t be settled — in the Union if we can, but if we cannot, then out of the Union. Supposing these to be not only your sentiments, but the sentiments of the great body of the Southern people, it gives me pleasure to inform you of a move which is now on the tapis in New Jersey, the effect of which, I am persuaded, will be not only to secure to the South her rights in the Union, but to give the Union itself a new lease upon time. New Jersey is one of the Old Thirteen. No State North of Mason and Dixon's line has been more faithful, loyal and true to the Constitution; and none has been more mindful of the rights of the sister States under it than she; and there is not one among them all that commands more of the respect and confidence of the Southern people. Availing herself of the proud position which she occupies, the plan proposed is that she shall undertake the office of mediator between the sections. As far as I understand it, the outlines are these: She is to send a Commi

n. [From La Presse, of Paris, December 4.] France cannot be otherwise than proud to find her pro flings an unhappy shadow over the other. France, who abolished slavery herself, can not even the divisions of the Union in regard to which France can have, in certain events, any more extendedthey really ignored? These are questions that France can neither raise nor solve, and which she caners are at this time the truest patriots. France has in the United States the same interest tha a counterpoise to the Southern agreement with France. War will inevitably flow from this antagonisorth up to this time has alone prevented.
