"TOO YOUNG."—This, says the Lancaster fetilligea ,
err, is the cry of several of the Opposition journals against
WILLIAM A. Potrratt, the Dentocratie candidate for Judge
of the flapreme Cont. When the eider PITT, at rho ago
of 2h, became Prieto Miaistar of England—and he proved
to he a head sad abraders taller is intellect and power
than any of his contemporaries—was accused, to, use his
ems ravage, of "the &Gracious crime of being a young
ram" he contented himself with wishing that ho "might
be ono of those whose follies may AMMO with their youth,
and not 0110 of those who are ignorant In spite of export
riser" Yr. Priv rely uttered the sentiment of all Pellffi ,
Me men—that neither age nor youth in itself makes fitness
or natters for station, bat that qualification is and should
be the only tree criterion. An old goat Is none the more
Tearable for his gray beard. Instances innumerable oe
car in the history of our own and other countries, in an ,
cleat and modern times, where youth showed itself infin
itely superior to old age. Alexander the (treat had con
queered the then known world before be was 30 years of
era. Naptdema defeated the armies of Austria, command
ed by for most dbaingnisbed and veteran Generals, at the
age OTT. Washington was appointed to the chief corn.

Clay was *Meted to the U. S. Senate at the age of 29.
Felts Greedy was Chief Justice of Kentucky at 20. The
MP Chief Julies Gibson, of this State, was appointed to
the Supreme Brush when sot more than 0. William
Wear Irmo sleeted Eloyeraor at 38. Judge Knox was so
the Suprema Break at 35. Sanomprfield was rho most *l

And so we might go on and enamerate, rid teptetteme, time

all of wham reads their mark on the country and the

of life. We adult that many Meg do not roach their full

It way be remembered that Baez proNsed
seeg a dip'.omatio agent to the United States,

but a mulatto himself, h.... wished to accredit a

To t is, ohjecuon was urged by Mr. Mason and
othels in the United States Senate even before
the delivery of the Drod Sett opinion. Santa ;
us, as our government has been informed, is anx•

United States will recognize his government : and
give him their influence and encouragement.—

,WAsIIINUTON, July 25, 185 s.
Our govertubet begins to realize the import
mace of questions heretofore thought but little
of, relating to the rights and claims of the lind•
son's Bay Cowpony on the Pacific side of the
coati Dent.
I `oleos a wise and liberal policy be pursued by
the British with regard to miners in the Fraser
country, there may be callisions that would lead
to international difficulties. Tho American mi
ners will soon learn, if they have not already,
that neither Gov. Douglas nor the Hudson's Bay
Company have any authority over mines on this
continent.
a'l. Out li.o larl auvernur of V ancouve,sistosst
(I wouglas) has no authority beyond what his com.
mission confers. lie bas no right of juritidie,
tion; and has never claimed it before, over the
main land or any other territory than Vancouver's
Island, in the capacity of Governor, and except
as chief factor of the Hudson's Bay Company.
Neither the company nor he, as its chief factor,
have any right under their charter except the
right or privilege of trading 'with the Indiana.—
They have no possession over the mines or ap.
preaches to wipes, and therefore the imposition
of taxes or license fees by either Governor Doug
las or the company is a usurpation of authority.
All mines belong to the crown of England; but
it has been decided by British authorities in
Australia that "placers" are not mines; in the
meaning of the enactment ceding all mines to the
crown, that gold washing and working for gold
ou the surface is ant mining.
Ore ArQUISITeiN or CUBA.—Tho existing
euirste con/laic between this govenimcnt and
that of England upon the subject of the right of
search, way owe something of its strength to the
hope on our part of British colatenancie if not
support tu acquiring the Island of Cuba. So too,
also, the well founded belief that our governjgent,
upon Pufficitut reason, changed positiolp der ,
ing the past winter from one of asking Go"great
to revoke the elayton.liulwer treaty, to ifne of
intimating that England might be induced to
comply with its terms. It is a very fine picture,
truly—that of the British lion rising up from
the jungles of Centel America', and forever aban
diming them So also, that of the fleets of John
Bull hauled off, and sympathizing spectators' of
our acquisition of the gem of the Antilles. For
the latter, the London Times expresses itself as
willing ami wishing, while the Earl of Alalaica l
bury threatens the dire alternative, unless Spain
stops the Cuba slave mule. But is this comm.
tion the very importrut point should sot bo lost
sight of, that the French Emperor has ititimited
to Spain that he will :Amid by her sow that Eat
laud has drawn off its support.—Aslarneer Sen.
