Perhaps the ino9t wonderful of the many rand events to which this enlightened age as given birth, is the rapid match of civili- ation and the arts over the magnificent >vil- lerness country extending from the western onlines of Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas 0 n o the distant shores of the Pacific. As, ap parently, the result of the creative power of u *ome mystical influence, we find the repre sentative agents of a new polilical organiza- i >n knocking nervously at the doors of each uccessive Congress tor admission. A new illustration of the truthfulness of this remark ,s even now trauspiriug at the Federal Capi- :ol, in the arrival of two gentlemen, bearing with them credentials, in due form, entitling them to seats as United States Squalors from kjthe new State of Colorado. The sudden ap- stpearance of this new star in our Federal con catenation of States marks an era in the his tory of our mining region. It. is the first ?tate formed from this region whose waters in good pan flow eastward to the Missouri and the Gulf; it is on the great highway across the continent, soon to be traversed by the iron track ; even without this, it is more easy of access from the older States than any other region abounding in native gold and ^'silver ; its chief mines being now reached in a ten days from New York; while those of "Montane, Idaho or Nevada require a journey 0 at least twice as long and far more tediou 8 “ and perilous. ( Yet, says the New York Tribune, Colorado t has increased not so rapidly as some of the j other Territories in population, production * and wealth. Lying chiefly on the hither * slope of the Rocky Mountains, it has sent 5 thousands of its pioneers to the war, while i the other Territories sent few or none. It * has for two or three years suffered from a ! visitation ol grasshoppers, equal in number and voracity to the locusts of the Orient, whereby its infant agricultute has been all but annihilated. And eveu its mines—rich as chemical analysis has often shown them— have proved less productive than their dis coverers had ample reason to expect. The Tribuue, in its explanations of the reasons for this, says the gold-bearing quariz veins are heavily charged with baser miner als, especially with sulphur. If any heating process be tried, these sulphates readily fuse into a vitreous mass, which defies every effort at chemical solution, and whereon quicksilver exerts no influence whatever. Thus piles of ore proved and known to con tain 8200 per ton of the precious metais, have often yielded to the miners’ stamping and separating processes hardly a tithe of that amoum—not half enough to defray the cost of mining. It is stated that processes aud combina tions recently invented have overcome these difficulties, so that ores treated by the best of them now yield very largely. However this may be, it is believed the true solvents will be ascertained and applied, and that the new State of Colorado is soon to enter on a new career of growth and prosperity. tbolic; his subjects are partly Catholic and partly Protestant. There is an old feud be tween them. Religious parties of the worst kind might break out, and a struggle for power would ensue, were these parties not kept in restraint by the influence and neighborhood of powerful monarchies. It was by the com bined influence of England and France that Belgium was separated from Holland and erected into an independent kingdom. It was an achievement of Lord Palmerston’s diplomacy that constitutes the principal tri umph of his foreign policy. The two states men who on that occasion broke the spell of the old dogma, that England and France were natural enemies, were Palmerston aud Talleyrand. The first of that change was the entente cordiale, which was pronounced a forced and unnatural arrangement, but has endured now for upwards of a quarter ot a century. The safety of the B dgic kingdom and the continuance of the dynasty of that branch or the House of Orange, of which Leopold the Second is the inheritor, will be perpetuated While the entente cordiale continues betweeu England and France. THE PROPOSED COTTON CONVENTION The committee appointed by the New' York Chamber of Commerce have reported against the memorial presented by Mr. A. Penfield, ofj Washington City, directing the attention of the chamber to the importance of increasing the production of cotton in the United States, asking it to recommend the bolding a of National Convention to devise means f.w securing that end, and suggesting the propriety of governmental interference. The committee express their approval of the end suggested by the memorialist, but dis sent from the means recommended. They are aware that the devastations of war have destroyed much of the capital hitherto em ployed in the cultivation of cotton; ‘‘that the abolition of slavery has for the present greatly disturbed the pre-existing relations of capital and labor throughout the cotton growing region of our country; that the diminished production duriug the war has more than quadrupled its market value; and hence, that its cultivation for some years to come presents a most inviting field for the investment of labor and money." And the committee conclude, in that spirit ol non interference which is best adapted to the genius of our government, “that any in terference on the part of the United Stales Government, save for the preservation of order and the protection of the relative rights of capital and labor, would mar rather than facilitate the Increased production of cotton. Nor can they believe that a National Con vention would be productive ol beneficial results. “It would be likely, as all 3uch popular movements are, to discourage individual efforts through the fear of competition, and by exciting expectations of co-operative ac tion, which, in the end would, judging from past experience in similar cases, be almost certain to prove illusory." BELGIUM. The greatest hazard to the stability of mo narchical institutions since the revolution of 1348 has been the death of the ruling sover eign, except where traditionary attachments have become stronger thau the.popular de sire for chauge. The monarchies of the con tinent of Europe underwent a violent shock in 1848. The monarchical principle has ne ver been viewed with the same sentiment of veneration since as before that revolution which drove nearly every monarch in Europe from his throne. The sentiment of loyalty so deeply Implanted for centuries in Europe has never since taken such deep root in the public mind, nor will it ever while there is room afforded for any freedom of discussion through the press and legislative assembly. We date the establishment of representa tive Institutions from the day that the.Em- peror of Austria, the King of Prussia, and the lesser powers of Germany were forced to concede to their subjects the right of repre sentation by annual parliaments. This has established a new eara in political history. The change that menaces dynastic interests Is the demise of the ruling mouarch, and the play that is thence afforded to political pas sions—to the ambition of rival factions or parties, unless where it is the interest ot surrounding and powerful States to sustain s n existing government aud the hereditary succession. Such is now tbe position of Belgium- The death of the Belgic king affords such au ^opportunity. Leopold the Second is a Ca- TIIK SOVEREIGNTY OF THE STATES. This is a phrase which has lost its signifi cance amidst ‘the clash of arms and the strug gle between the North and South. Occa sionally, but very rarely, a consolidationis 1 is met with in some Northern magazine or newspaper contending for the doctrine he de lights to advocate, but the feeble echo of whose voice is scarcely heard amidst the din of party conflicts. It seems the highest grati fication, however, of some old followers of the school of Alexander Hamilton to renew his principles in order to keep alive those rules of constitutional construction which formed his peculiar creed of politics. A writer of this school, whose lucubrations have formed a place in “The Nation, a clever periodical published in the city of New York, who is determined that the con troversy shall not die out, of which the basis was the sovereignty of the States. This writer, who dates his commu nications from Florence, Italy, has evinced a pervertt d ingenuity in tracing historically the successive phases which the Constitution has assumed. His theory is, that at no stage in our history could sovereignty of the States be predicated. In fact, he attempts to prove that the word sovereignty is meaningless, as applied to the Slates—that the phrase sove reignty of the States cannot be brought with in any precise definition. In this he discards the uses which have been made of tbe phrase in the discussions which have taken place in the convention that formed the Constitution, between Madison, Hamilton, Patrick Henry, Luther Martin, and the other members of that convcntibn—in out courts of highest judicature, Stale aud Federal, presided over by John Marshall, Parsons, Kent, Spencer, aud all tbe lights which have illuminated our jurisprudence. The writer commences with attempts to lay the foundation of his argument in this wise : “I have said that the point under discus sion, the sovereignty of the States, was a pending, practical, vital question, and it seems to me that, unless the view I am taking nf the subject is sound, neither the emanci pation proclamation nor any other of the leading measures of the last administra tion, nor even the plan of reconstruction now in progress under President Johnson, can be sustained as having any legal force or validity. Every one of the measuies in question involves the exercise of powers by the National Executive and Congress which are utterly inconsistent with the notion of a substantial sovereignty in the States. So vereignties are either co-equal or, with refe rence to each other, they are non-existent ; tor “a sovereignty subordinate to another so vereignty” is a contradiction in terms, and the true relation of the inferior to the supe rior can never be expressed by a proposition which shall ascribe that attribute to both, with whatever qualifications it may be guarded. We may indeed say, loosely, of the United States and the several States, that they are sovereign each in their respective spheres. But we may, with equal truth and comprehensiveness ot meaning, say the same thing ot the United States and &uy chartered corporation-Dartmouth College,lor instance. The word sovereign signifies just as much in one case as in the oilier, and it is an abuse of language to employ it in either. The appli cation of tbe predicate “sovereign”—a defi nite and well understood technical term of ttie vocabulary of political science—to tlie States of the American Union, is precisely one of those cates where, as Coleridge ob serves, “by familiatiziug the mind to equi vocal expressions—that is, such as may be taken in two or more different meanings— we introduce confusion of thought aud furnish tbe sophist with hia best and handiest tools. For the juggle of sophistry consists, for the most part, in using a word in one sense in the pre mises, and iu another sense in the conclu sion." Iu the minds of the framers of the confederation, “sovereign, 1 ’as applied to the several States, conveyed a totally different idea from that expressed by the same word as applied to the United States, or to other independent powers, as France or Great Britain; and this douole use of the word, this ‘‘juggle” of Southern sophistry, has roved the “besUand handiest tool” of the itate-right disorganizers.” In this elaborate effort to prove that sove reignty cannot be predicated of what be calls subordinate authority,the writer assumes the point to be proved—the subordination of the States to one supreme head, which was the people of the United States collectively, aud not of tbe States separately. No one dis putes that tbe people are tbe supreme head of all authority. But the writer fails to es tablish that tbe Congress and Executive of tbe United States, in whom he centres all authority, from the Revolutionary Congress to t he present, represents the will of the whole people. In reaching his conclusion he of course ignores the fact that tbe sovereignty of the States is, and was always represented in the Senate aud in the electoral body- But be also ignores the facts of history. The se parate sovereignty of the States was recog nized by name in the treaty of 1783, by which tbeir separate independence and nationality was also recognized by the very power against which they had revolted. We would not have noticed this writer bnt to show what rapid strides the doctrines of consolidation are making at the North. We are satisfied that he' represents a large party in that section who are resolved on totally changing the character of the Consti tution, if not by judicial construction, at least by amendment of the instrument. The liberality of their concession to the South will be judged by the following sentence of tbe writer, who, after mentioning various dedatory provisions, says: “/ would leave the States unshorn of every prerogative, and in the IN GENERAL. —Iu 1860 the Ohio debt was $14,250,000.

D., Graduate of the college of Physicians and Surgeons, New York; Jbnnerly Assistant Physician in the Blackwell's Island Hospitals. CONSTITUTION LITE SYRUP Has produced a revolution in Medicine. What may seem almost Incredible is, that many dls eases hitherto considered hopelessly incurutde are fi e quently cured in a few days or weeks; and we cheer rally invite the investigations of the liberal minded and scientific to cures which have no parallel at the pres- sent day. Daring the past five years we have contended with obstacles and overcome opposition as herculean as were ever encountered by any reformers. RAPIDITY OF CURE. Some say, "Your cures are too qnick,” while others doubt their permanence, and think that diseases cun only be cured by tbe “slow, recuperative process ol Nature." This Is our reply: In health, the body, like a well- balanced scale, is in a state of equilibrium Bnt when, Irom any cause, down goes one side of the scale, we have the effects of disease. What is requisite, is to re store the normal balance of tbe scale. CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP Is a positive and specific remedy for all diseases orlgi noting from au impure slate of the Blood, and for al thereaitaiyj diseases transmitted from parent to child PARALYSIS. It is eo universally 4dm It tod that Constitution Life Syrnp Is the only effective means of restoration in the various forms of Paralysis, tltat we need not reiterate- that it is emphatically the Great-Life-giving Power.
