'ST iTEI3.—Tn Consequdnee''Of 'thit-'iternars and
statements that have gone abroad, in reference,
to an alleged difficulty between Mr. Poussin and
the Government of the United States, it becomes
ricessaryto` present,4l Imitation of faets that
„, might otherwise have beeh withheld, : - An at
tempt hits , been made to 'create' the inipresion
that the circumstance's to which We refer Oita
blish of necessity unfriendly' relations between
this country and France. This is not the ease.
Eyery notion is atiiberty, to dismiss , any foreign
rot its 'pleasure, on the occurrence 'of
fatiy:th ng'w,hich is offensive to its dignity or cha
_iraite "p—inf -which•-it is itself, of course,-to be
'the sole judge: No - mition hos ever undertaken
to resentsuch . a step as a hostile or unfriendly
-ad. The apprehensions, therefore, which seem
to, have prevailed on this subject ore quite un
oalledlor ; as some ulterior action on the part
.Of France will be necessary to interrupt the
'Midi:Ale relations which exist between her and
"the United Slates. .
On the 7th day of February last Mr. Poussin,
.in - ri note to Mr.' Buchanan,
then Secretary of
State, alleged that he was charged by the French
Government with the prosecution of a claim
against - the - Governinent of the United. States,_
brought by tk Frenchman 'Minted A. Port, esta
blished in Mexico, for indemnification kir dame
- ges sustained by hire from the Acts of certain
agents of the army of, the United States. His
application was intheitature of. on appeal from
'the sentence of a' military court of inquiry al
Puebla, which had made a decihinri . urifavorable
Wile claim.
No answer was sent by Mr. Buchanan to this
communication. When it was brought to the
attention of the present Secretary of State, Mr.
Clayton promptly devoted , himself to its inves
tigation, with the view of gratifying Mr.i. : Pous2
sin by a speedy decision. Within ten days from
the time it was presented to him, Mr. Clayton
.announced to Mr. Poussin 'that he had arrived
at the conclusion that Mr. Port' had no just
cause to be dissatiified with thoatiard of the
military of inquiry. This award, we
may add, which rejected Mr. Port's Clain'', had
been regularly sanctioned and appl'eved by Gen.
Scott, the commander-in-chief.
Dissatisfied with this decision, Mr. Poussin,
on the 13th of March, addressed a' note to the
'Secretary of State, in which he wiewekthe
supposed grounds, of..the decision, a7d animad
verted with some severity on the testimony of a
distinguished 'officer of the American army in
Mexico f who had been a witness 'before the
court at Puebla. It is• obvious that at this point
Mr. Clayton might have declined any further
, correspondence on the subject ; but, out Of re
spect on the 10th Of April, he reldied to Air._
Poussin's comniffiffehlioft, iisleting reasons for
his decision, and respectfully controverting the
positions of the Minister. On the ItAh of April
Mr. Clayton received. another - note — frOrri
,Poussin, in which the Minister indulged in a
strain of invective, evidently intended to bo
highly offensive to the American Government.
The correspondence was immediately submitted
by the Secretary of State to the President, who'
directed him to lose no time in requesting Mr.
,Poussin to repair to Washington without unne
cessary delay.
The offensive notewas-datedArWrigungten,
while' Mr. Poussin Was absent in New York,
upwards of two hundred miles distant fromthe
city. Bearing on its face an insult toile Ameri
can Government, deliberately givenin the very
_capital of the United States, which, if hot sa
tisfactorily explained or retracted, would have
required that all correspondence with him as a
minister should terminate without delay, it was
made important to' himself and Government
that he should lose no time in repairing to Wash- '
ington. One offensive passage wasthe follow- ,
ing:—" The Government of the United States
Must be convinced that it is more honorable to ac
quit, fairly, a debt contracted during war, under I
the pressure of necessity, than to-evade-its payment
by endeavoring to brand the character of an honest
man." The same note contained an attack up-
On 'a high military officer, charging him, in ef
fect, with perjury before the military court;
and an attack upon the distinguished officers
composing the court, who were charged with
permitting that officer ".to 'carry out. without '
interruption, his string of calumnies incredible."
It closed with *insinuation that the State 'De
partnienrqffi become the organ of a criminal
'accusation, without proofs, against Mr. Port.
It was in reply to /his communication, that
on the 21st of April Mr. Clayton addressed Mr.
Poussin the following note:
°

In the interview between Mr. Clayton and
Mr. Pomba which followed this note, the latter

LEGATION OF,FEANOE I
WASHINGTON, May 20, 1849 1 -
• Ste :..I received on the 28th of May the note
which you did me the honor to addresslome on
the same day, in answer to mine culling Upon the
„. Government of the United Slates to disavow the
conduct of Comtifimder Carpender, of the Anted
can steamship his, tpwards the :French ship Ens
genie, of Havre, which had run upon the bank of
Rim), nenrJhe anchorage'of Anton Lizardo. ' •
The eriplanations given by Commander Carpen
der are nut of a nature, Mr. Secretary of State,
such as to dispel the discontent which his proceed
ince have caused to my government.
He considered, na .he says, and.he still co id.
ere, that' the ease was one of salvage; lh the
rights acquired . oy din as the saver of the vessel
saved, empowered him to keep possession f her
until his-extravay.ant prmizmils were full ads
fied ; but his opinions lilve Mile interest in r
eyes, when we have occasion to condemn his con
duct. • •
I called ottllbo Cabinet at Washington, Mr.
Secretary. of State, in the name of the French Go;
vernment, , to address a severe reproof to that offi
cer. of the American navy, in order that the error
whichlic has committed, on a point involving the
dignity of-your national marine, - might not be re
'pealed hereafter. •
From your answer, Mr. Secretary of State, 1 am
-unfortunately induced to relieve that your Govern
ment subset-Mee to the strange doctrines professed
by Commander-Carpender,-of the war 'steamer
•
Iris; and I have only to protest,' in. the name of
my Government, against these doctrines.
I have the honor to be, with distinguished con
sideration, your most obedient servant, •
GUILLAUME TELL POUBSIN.
Hon. J. 14, Clayton, Secretary of atate,..
There had been, in foot, no doctrine advanc
ed in-regard to the case of Commander Carpet:,
der, nor was there any indication of an opinion
on the subject of salvage: Mr. Poussin,as if
to make out a case for denunciation, assumed
that " strange doctrines" had been; adopted by
the Executive, which compromised the "dignity
of our national marine."
In his note of May 30, the French minister
speaks of his pregious communication [dated
12th of May] in relation to this subject, as one
' merely calling upon the Government of the
United States to disavow the conduct of Corn.
-- -mander-,Carpeedem ln -point of fact, his dote'
of the 12th of May not only demanded such ti
disavowal, but insisted " that severe,btame, at
least,Jhould be laid on those who thus consid
ered themselves empontred to substitute arbi
trary measures for justice:" The Government
might have accompanied a disavowal of Com
mander Carpendeni conduct with a severe
censure; but a disvowal of the principle of
- s,allage, or his right to it, would not of necessi
ty'have implied a sever e censure. • -
Mr. Poussin's note of the 12th of May was
not - unit nor could it be interpreted, as 1
_ _demanding merely a disavowal of the law under
which Coinina . nder Carpender claithad salvage j
for his crew. To allemadd upon the President'
to disavow a law of the land, and the usages of
• nations-under the law of nations, it.would have
been a sufficient answer to have replied, that
it is not the province of the Executive to make
or repeal laws ; it is his duty to execute them
as they actually exist. M. Pou'ssinis language
was construed to charge CommanderCarpender
with abuse of authority in illegally detaining the
French vessel.
It will be observed that the 'defence of C om .,
wander Carpcniler was placed In the hands of
the French Minister with the expectati on of its
being forwarded to the French government;
° and with the hope t expressed by the President,
that en inspection of the papers Would remove
the misunderstanding which existed in regard
to his conduct. M. Poussin did not give the
cabinet of France 'an opportunity of deciding
the case in its new aspect, but immediately de
nounced the commander, without considering
his defence, which' hel'egarded as matter of St
tielVer est in his eyes, when he had occasion to
condenie the conduct of an officer of the United
Statis. An imperious refusal ..to pamit an
American officer to be heard in his defence by
the Government which accused, was noOmade
more' palatable .to the Executive by the' con
.' temptuous sneer that accompanied' it. The
United States Government had asked, as an act
• of common justice to a meritorious and faithful
• officer, that fhelte heard in a matter affecting
his private and official — ehe 'rioter ; and it was
natural to suppose that his conduct in paving a
French ship, and abandoning his claim to sal
vage, would exempt him from censOre, though
it might fail to receive the approbation of the j
French Government. It was felt to be due to
Commander Carpender that he should not be
condemned' without evidence o'r 'a hearing; and
a refusal of so common a right was deeply felt,
as unjust, insolent and rude.
Mr. Mason, the late Secretary of the Navy,
In a letter to Commander Carpender, dated No.
ye:niter 28th, 9898, had officially approved his
course in this very matter; there was no evi
dence adduced against' him, and yet Mr. Poo.
sin decides that he hod committed an' net which'
derogated ',from y , the dignity, of the national
marini," and proceeds to implicate the Ame
rican-Government in the discreditable conduit,'
of its officer.. He pretests against the action' of
the, American Executive in the name of the
French government, thus presenting himself
before the President and his Cabinppis having
been commissioned to lecture them-upon what
concerns the dignity and honer, of eur,,nationel
marine. • . '
On the receipt of •this extraordinary letter,
,the President determined to. submit. Mr. Pous
sires correspendenhs to the French governMent,
•
without assuming to prescribe the'course ivhict,
'that, government should adopt under such pa

WAR -
A SPECK OF L—The article
froth the Washington Republic details the
difficOies which haye. arisen with the
French .Government. It is not apprehended ,
there will be War on account of this difficul
ty, but if there is we may have all confi
dence in the result, with the brave ZACHA
YR TAYLOR at the head of our Army and
Remember and take Courage !
Last year when the Administralioct of
President Polk spent its :hundreds of thou
sands of dollars upon Pennsylvania, and
spared froni their dritres at WrishingMn
'scores of Office-holders to cajole the people
into its support, Gov. Johnston Was elected,
and Ger.. Taylor carried the State by Thir
teen Thousand. Pennsylvania is no.longer a
Locoipoo State. Her - interests make her
Whig, and if we will, we can elect HENRY
M. FULLER !
Are You Assessed?
It is net iOO early to, remind the Whigs of
the necessity of being assessed ten days be :
fore the election. The election takes place on
Tuesday, the 9th of October, less than two
weeks from thisahme. Bear it in mind, and
attend to (hie important duly in time. Each
one of you shouldpatinine the lists of voters
put -3p in your respective 'election districts,
by your assessors, and if your names are not
there, have yourselves assessed by Stft,rdny.
—ler if you are not assessed at least ten
days before the election, or have not- paid a
State or County Tax within - two years past,
you will lose your votes.
Think Of It a Moment !
Within the past year, one hundred thou
sand tons of English railroad iron have been
imported or ordered to be imported into this
Country, costing five millions of dollars. It
rs eta d that a would require 17,000 work
men to manufacture this quantity of iron.
Let us look at this fact for a moment; al
loWing an average of five persons to a fami
ly, we have 85,000 persons supported by the
manufacture of railroad iron. These 85,000
persons must puichase food and Clothing;
how maaymore then will this, manufacture
furnish with a support in, part ! The Tariff
911846 has filing all this profit, with its con.
sequences to all these working men, into the
hands of the English ; when, under The act
of '42 it might , have beep given to our own
citizens. Working-men! you can have this
thing changed at . the BALLOT-PDX if you

the debt a - d-maintain khe' public 'works.
It is a,faat, that large amounts of . , money
were' frequently borrowed to pay the semi
annual interest, and that a floating debt,
along the line of our palkic works, of six
,hundred thousand dollarshad- -accumulated
for years; and remained unpaid / •
It is that laborers, material men,
and men who had-sustained--damage--along
the improveineots—men who could not be
denied their' honest claims *theta sorely
feeling their loss—men whose (meshing
families were oryidg to.them for bread, had
remained unpaid for years, and their petitions '
for teliel had been disregarded.
It hi a fact, that the people, while they
paid into the treasury the taxes-deemed.nec
essary to the. support 01 - the public credit,
were featfull.P - discouraged at the
.prospect

the people, by the only available mode; the
payment o: the public debt, and the citizens
et/Old sew'!" the the fulgre no relief from taxa

'
•
It is a fact; that those laliorers and Mate
rial men upon the public works, who were
fortunate enough to receive from the'Locolo.
co superintendents the reward of their toil,
were paid in worthless notes —torn, defaced
. nil depreciated inyalue ;—notes which were
kept in circulation agairot the terms of their
-o-riginirlissue7which-requiredilseirredempz—
lion years ago. .
It is a fact, that as soon as the Whig ad
ministration came into power, the Locorrico
party, from one end of the State to the other,
commenced yn unprincipled outcry against
it, because it did not pay the debts along the
line of internal improvements,—debts which
that party had contraeted and ccucealed;—
laborers who hail suflered the pangs of want
for debts due them for months, if not years,
under Locofoco ad in inistration.
These are'facis which 4he,reeructs of the
State anti the experience of the people will
fully - sustain. - Lotilc orr - the -i reyerse - of — the
picture--for there is a secondchapter of (a 4 cts
to follow :
/ It is antact, that thiWhig Governor, Wm.
F. Johnston, was inaugurated - in the month
of January last, having received •the largest
vote ever' polledJn Pennsylvania; an& that
since then, he has had be administration 'of
the Executive branch ol:the government un
der his control. '
It is a fact that before as well as since, his
inauguration, the public Messes of the Loco
form party have assailed him, his reccom
mendatioctrand his public acts, with a feroc
ity which criniteindefi:public sentiment, dis._
.regarded the expression of the public will,
anl-which, defying truthand shame, denoun
ced his administration as ruinous to the inte
rests of the people.
lt is a fact, nevertheless, that under his
hdmintstration of public affairs, within the
short period of nine months, the interest. on
the public debt has, been paid .in a sound,
convertible corrency,without borrowing, and
without the cost of a cent in exchanges,
thereby saving to the people thousands of
dollars, , •
It is a t fact, that, within, this period, the
floating debt of six hunched thousand dollars,
created by die Loooloco'party, and by: ; them„
suffered to accuMulate for years, has • heed
principally paid, and resources are in the
Treasury to meet every dollar of the debt
which has been brought to the notice of the
Whig administration.
It is a 'fact ) that the workmen, material
men arid men. Wto-have sustained damage
along the lines of Canal and Railroad in the
State, have either been paid, or the payments
have been delayed by miperintendents on
the said wear.
ft is a 'du i that of those torn, defaced ar.d
depreciated notes, with which Locolocos paid
the laborers on the public w0rk5,5327,937 00,
—being nearly , two-thirds of the whole,—
have beep withdrawn from circulation, and
tpeir platen supplied with a sound and safe
currency.
It is a fact, that one hundred and hirteen
.thousand five hundred dollars of t e funded
debt have beey paid, and one hundred . thou
sand - dollars more will be paid before the Ist
day of February next; and that a sinking.
fund has been established, which, 'under
proper management and the continuance Of
~.the Judicious system pursued by the existing
-administration, will secure •the payMant of
ten millions of dollars of the said debt—or
one-fourth•of the entire debt,df.the Common
wealth—within the next six years 1 '
Iris a fact, that alter every known, claim
which'can be legally, made upon the Trea
sury ahall.have been paid, (except the Jon?.
ded debt of the commonwealth) indluding
the interest pqable en the.firat of Febtuary
next, there will remain in the Treasury an
unappropriated balance of one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, Which may with pro
priety and justice be directed towards the
completion of the North Branch Canal.
,IA is' a lace, that during the next year,' the
-reveilles of the State will mean'every ordi
'nary: expenditure ; will pay. of the public
13ebt from, : thtee to five hundred thousand
'drillers, and will leave. an unappropriated

sad record to our State pride; Ai pne time a'
nonpaying State, with the black stigma ol
Reputhatton resting upon her—and when the
payment of the interest of her debt was resu
med, a depreciated currency was alt that.
Pennsylvania, with all her great resources,
could tender to her creditors. And even then

tors from time to time arevymear, who does

tuition did fliesc.things occur? Who had the
difection of publiPpffairs? It cannot•be'di.
nied that the-party now in oppositiori to
Gov. JOHNSTON and' Treasurer Batt; were
then in power. They. had the same means
of meeting the State liabilities then, which
ere possessed new-Lthe resources of the
State wore as ireat—her prosperity at' least
equal. They can 'point out no oneArtterttiit
do the part of the Whigs to thwart them.ime
single measure for the improvements,of the
State Finances. With all this in their lavor
what did-our opponenis,then accomPliah?
Did the price of Stale stocks improve.? Was
there an abiding faith that the Interest would
from time to time be paid? These are
questions which a slight acquaintance with
the affairs of our State will enable any one
o answer, and their answers must be against
th , then ominant party.
Now look at what has been accomplished,
with the same means, by the Whig Ad 11l inis.
!ration; and in The cOurseol the lew months
of its existence. On the day Mr. Bull enter=
ed on the'dufiel of State Tielisurer- , --the 7th .
of
_May, 1849—there were 8108494 17 o'f
'hinds in the Treasury. On - That
very day a IlMan fell due. which, had been
contracted to pay \ . .the N February interest.
amounting to s2oo,ooo—hpother loan also,
to pay laborers on the public works, amount
ing to 859,800—the interest on these two
loans wasS3,B7s—amounting in all to 8259,-
875, making a deficiency of 8150.380. -Be
sides this $438,530 were required by the
Board of Canal Commissioners, other cur
rent demands on the Treasury were made
to the amount of $250,000, and then on the
Ist of . August, the interest on the State
Debt came due, amounting to 662,345, ma
king in - . - all - one million eight hundred and
May thousand dollars (1,840,000) to be paid
since the Whig Treasurer has had chrirge of
the State Finances. 11 has been paid—and
paid without a loan—from the Revenues 'of .
State,—by the judicious management ot, the
Whig State Treasurer ! This cannot be de
nied.
But this is not all. On the 14th of August
last, alter- this iiipmense amount had been
paid, ttilire Was a surplus in the State Trms-.
ury of over $300,000! This cannot be de
nied. On the Ist of February, next, alter
paying the State interest, $364,236 wilt re
main, in the Treasury to be appropriated to a
great internal improvement, on which• vast
sums have been expended,licim which the
State now drives - ncrieturrri-but-which when
completed will be a lucrative source of rev
enue to the Commonwealth, and pay back
the interest on a fund which has for years
been lying unproductive. Nor is this all.—
Gov. Johnston recommended a SlAking Fund.
for the gradual extmgaishmeht of the State
.Dabh Will nothing be done for that? Two
hundred armlour thousand, four hundred and
thirty-eight dollars and eighty-nine cents,
($204,438 89) will bo the amount of the
Fund, this year, even alter the payment of
the immense sums above referred to ! And
in the course of a few years, by skilful finals
offering, and an 'economical administration of
State affairs the STATE'DEBTioIkbe dixreci
ed at the rate o J C at least ONE MILLION OF
DOLLARS PER ANNUM!
How is the State credit? Her stocks are
almost'at par.. No 'one doubts her ability to
pay her creditors. She payamo, to gold and
silver. These are the fruits of a Whig ad
ministration. Will the People of Cumber
land county Ore it limn. support? Tax-Pay
ers! there is a -hope of relief. V% ill you still
bear your burdens, and vote blindly against
those whose object is to lighten them 1 Party
spirit may oppose yvhatts for the benefit of.
the State and' yourselves. Patriotism and
self-interest, however, call upon you to sup. 1
port men ho will aid the present adminis. 1
trillion in the accomplishment of measures
- for the PAYMENT OF THE STATE DEBT, and the,
relief of the people from TAXATION. The
Whig ticket is -before the voters of Cuthber
land county. Will they endorse Gov. JOHN.
STON sand Treasurer Nu. by sending two
members to the Legislature who will -sup

to re-elect the other-?
,_The opposite party
