the Bible, expounded the Constitution and
explained the Law, not forgetting to ex
poso tho conduct of sonic of the political
prcaehcrg of our country, exhibiting them
in their garb of wolvos in sheep's clothing.
Judging from tho interest manifested by

JC" Tun radicals havo just discovered
that it is not so ea"y to "bag ' a whole

no milder term of reproach for a (Jcnoral
who failed lo do it, than that he was in
heart a ,:traitor." But, after Burnsidc's
inglorious defeat at Fredericksburg, and
Hook cr's disastrous failure at Chancellor

their demands, and aro now satisfied with
a General who defeats the enemy iu a hard
fought battle, although ho may not bo able

Government has been (suspended by the
protectorate rule of the French. She is
divided by factiont and threatened by in
imical armies. Tho expedition that has
caused this was one of tho French, Eng
lish and Spanish Governments, to cnfoico
tho payment of certain claims alleged to bo
duo their Governments. But Napoleon,
with that cool, cunning strategy, has crca
ted a differenco between the government'
and tho church and thus effected his groat
purpose. Maxisialiau of Austria is spo

Thoso things intimately interest our

Government will resolutely claim an eman
cipation of tho continent from foreign in
tervention. Wo have claimed that foreign
irans-atlaiilio powers shall not interfere
twith tho several Governments of this con
tinent. Will Mr. Lincoln turn his eyes
from tyranny and corruption and watch
our foreign relations ? Will ho realize
tho magnitude of the difficulty and prompt
ly avert it! With England's power in
Canada and France's in Mexico, wo might
bo overwhelmed with hostile armies and
suffer such disaster, that a bit of diplomacy
will now save. Our nation's honor is at

her interests to be secured ; and, probably
her nationality to bo settled. Although
wc aro enervated by consuming war, and
tljp flower of our couutry is fading on bat
tle, fields, yet wo havo might sufficient to
defend our rights and preserve our cunti-
ncnt from foreign invaders. No Empire
for Mexico; uo Maximilian for Emperor
uo interference by foreign allies with the
affairs of this continent. This thould he
our policy. Wo havo hope. These for-
cign secret cnimics of our Government one
day shall sadly know its power.
