TRIUMPH ANT MUSIC
BY R. 11. STODDARD.
Ay! give me music!flood the air with sound,
Rut let it be superb, and brave and high.
Not such as leaves my wild ambition bound
In soft delights, but lifts it to the sky;
No sighs, nor tears, but deep, indignant calm.
And scorn of all but strength, my only need.
From whence but Music, should my strength pro
ceed?
Home thunderous strand of sound which in its roll
Shall lift to starry heights my fiery soul.
Strike on the noisy drum, M.d let jhc fifo
►Scream like a tortured soul in pain intense;
Rut let the trumpet brood above their strife,
A ictorious, in its calm magnificence:
Nor fear to wake again ti e golden lute,
That runs along my quivering nerves like fire.
Nor let the silver-chorded lyre be mute,
Rut bring the tender lyre,
l or sweetness with all strength should wedded
be —
Rut bring the strength, the sweetness dwells in
me!
Play on! play on! li e strain is fit to feed
A feast of (t'ods, in bnnquet'halls divine.
Not one would taste the cups of f.Janyinede,
Rut onlyMrink this more ambrosial wine.
Play on! play on! the secret Soul of Sound
Unfolds itself at every cunning turn,
The trumpet lilts its shield, a stormy round,
The lute its dewy wire—
Rut in thelyre, the wild and passionate lyre,
Ue§ all its might, its madness and desire.
Again! again! aid let the rattling drum
Regin to roll, and let the bugle blow.
J.ike winter winds, when woods are stark and dumb-
Hhouting above a wilderness of snow!
Pour hail and lightning, from the fife and lyre.
And let the trumpet pile its clouds of doom—
Rut l o’ertop them with a darker plume,
And beat my wings of fire, —
Not like eagle baffled there,
Rut liken spirit on u throne of air!
In \aii! in vsdr.! we only fonr to sink:
Though Music gives us wings, we sink ut last;
The peaks of rapture topple oe’r
Os Doah, or Madness pallid and aghast;—
Rut still play on! you rapt musicians play!
Rut now a softer and serenerwtrain;
(live me a dying'.fall that lives agnir*
Play on! but softly till my breath grows deep.
And music leaves mein the arms of Fleep!
[From the London Leader. Sept. 13th.]
The Star-Spangled Banner Raised in Europe.
One eotttw would hr certain to secure victory
for the Peoples of Kurope against the Crowned
Conspiraev of Austria and alecs: we indi
eateil that course last week, but let ih now jssiit
out its advantages rather more specifically.
Willi Aaslr'an sm advancin': unresisted to the
conquest of Kurope, with Knoiand a'-quieseino
if >mt aidaio that Inlnmmn conquest, we have
counselled tile I’eoj'l. sos Kumpe to seek a leader
in the natural liead of the Democniey of the
Wjirld—the irreai lhjmhlie of Annr'ea.
It Would he quite poss hie to place at the head
of revolutionary forces, an Amer'ean (icitcral,
hear tit: the star spane.h and haimer of the Fn : oii ;
it would be qirte possible, ill due course, to etiga; e
even the Gtftrniment ol the American Uepubl c
in the same service, and todietate from Washing
ton the terms for the capitulation of \ anna and
St. IVtcrsburjr.
Foremost imimi: the ]ili!leal advantnci’ sos such
a plan would he its tendi nev to overr.de the jeal
ousies and rieiproea! distrusts wh oh might still he
a source of weakness to the Federation of Peo
ples. In almost every country the national party
; s divided upon certain int rimlionai and ulterior
questions: although Ciermany is beeomiutf almost
entirely Democratic, there tire st II Constitutional
ists anions its public men : in Italy tie le are (ion
stitiition.-i! sts and liepuhl cans, Federalists and
F nitavians ; in France there is no absolute major
ity thoiitflrotn* mieht be created hy the mor** met
of proelaiinini; a crusade tm'a nst Ah.-olut;sm, on
grounds sullieiently brutal. 1!i • first great olueets
to secure are. the national iudepciidt nee of each
nation, and the freedom ot each People.; leaving
mtei'iiat'oii.'il and .ulterior questions to he settled
bv each People when it shall he free to act, and
relieved from alien control. We have no fear
that the Democratic party of Kurope will he una
ble to subdue the jealousl's ami unite in action
against the common enemy : but no one can lie
blind to the diet that each section of that party
might l>e indisposed to accept the lead of any other
section, li-Kt :t should appear, ipm facto, to give up
its own defensive principle. Such in.strust would
not appy tot an American leader: territorially re
mote. lil t implicated ill the sectional questions of
Kurope. above all suspicion on the score of sinceri
ty jn tin* vin.bcut'oti ol liberty, the Popuoiic would
lie specially fitted to take the. lea 1 ill the struggle
for national independence and popular freedom,
without prejudging the external question of any
nation. We believe that the mere hoisting of the
star-spangled banner on the field of Kurope would
call forth the vast bbdy of the People of Kurope—
a rising of the Pimple from the Rhine to the Dan
ube. from the i.iltie to the Mediterranean.against
organized tyranny.
Kven to the Knifed States the political advan
tages would be considerable. The unemployed
energies which are be;'innhig to raise troublesome
questions at ho tie. would find a glorious and ben
eficial vent in that more distant field. Action of
that kind might help the Republicans to gain
tiin,*, and with time power, for ‘he deldvrato set
tlement of that so dal question which presses upon
them m >st danger *uslv. It woul 1 enable them to
force bi -k to Kurope.m grain 1 that class of dis
unites which Kaglisli Aholit'onists, aided by nu
i meuvriitg Kngl.sU *lqil:>ma:.st.‘, now make them
i discuss si inconveniently on Amcrle.-tn ground
alone. Resides, is not Kuropi an intervention
t :e Hlterveiitioii of Kiir-qiean (.1 irrmnirnt-x—be
tween the Americans and the Sjianiarils, at last
hee'ime imminent in < hi'vi ?
‘flie working out of eertam political problems
<m the Continent wotiM be of vast service to the
English people; and not less no to the English
colonies. One of the first advantages wool. l be
that England would find its fhcnltu-s of speech
and notion unlocked from the present nightmare
of doubt and i[Kitby t and it would not l..ng suffer
iu> (ioveruhieut to abstain from taking its proper
plaee by the side of the Republic, with Fra nee at
the bead of the Anti-Despotic movement.
i>ui the eommereia! and eeonomFeal advantages
o ‘the great movement would uot be less sink..no
than the politieal. Upon these, for the present,
we must necessarily toueh briefly; but we beseeeh
tile reader to think out the considerations whieli
we indicate. For the Americans, we need not
enlarge upon the p'ekij; ;:f wh eh are to be in joyed
in the conquered treasures and the captured pal
aces of Imperial luxury: but we mean far more
solid and general advantages. For example, the
shippiug of tile Unit'd States, which now, seeks
m unpleasant and ha/.ird.ms employment in the
slave trade, might find m ‘rr congenial and not
j less profitable employment in tin; crusade against
Despotism. In that respect the United States
might perform the functions of Ventce during the
crusades against the less barbarous Saracens. —
English capital would find abundant employment
in supplying the munitions of war: and afterwards
in supplying the newly freed industries of Europe
with the means of developing internal resources.
Indeed, this emancipation of Europe would real
ize the true complement of Fr<e Trade i at pres
ent, Free Trade finds its foremost antagonist in
the Zolvcrein. which absolutism is to imitate and
extend in Anstriaand Italy ; Hungary, who would
join with England, is pinioned by Austria : Tur
key, free in disposition, is kept poor by Russian
intimidation. The emancipation of Europe would
be the first step towards extending the alliances of
commerce over the whole field. Imagine the
trade of a Russia set free I The same process
would open the trade of Europe to the colonies.—
Canning talked of u , calling anew world into ex
istence.’’ when he recognized the South American
States ; but this crusade would call the old world
into existence for the new.
Need we dwell on the social advantages of the
movement ? Every state cu gaged’nxvouM fee!
COLUMBUS, GEORGIA,
them. Naples, Rome. Milan and Baden can tell
w hat are the hideous cruelties—the oppressions of
fantastical taxation, the inquisatoria] tyranny of an
official priesthood, the imprisonments, the flogging
| of men and women, the subjection of women and
children to the brutalities of licentious alien sol
diery. and not less licentious native gendarmerie—
cruelties now da'dy intficted by the I loly Alliance
throtighout so much of Europe as it already pos
s<*sses. And the frontier of the region possessed
by that bad power is dai'y spreading. Os course.
Italians. Austrians, Own tans, Hungarians, Bolte
niiuns, would be glad to escape from the shocking
thrall. YN estern Europe would be well pleased to
see the onward march of that system checked.—
h ranee would be more tranquil if the popular par
ty were endowed, as it would be, with a decided
preponderance. A period of political action, of
hope, and of commercial diligence, would be nen
eficial to us in England, socially :is well as eom
mereiallv and politically.
We fori •see two objections to the suggestion of
the Alliance of Peoples headed hy the Faded
States—the English Economists will object on the
score that war always enfads expense : the Amer
icans on the score that Washington and Jefferson
bequeathed the precept of non-intervention.—
Those two great-men lived before the lloly Al
liance. They had not read in the Times a hint
that, if Americans avenged American blood in
Cuba, there might be a combined demand for ex
planations from the maritime states of Europe.—
And Washington was too good a General, .Jeffer
s >ii too keen a statesman, not to perceive how
powerful a diversion it would he if European Go
! veruments meddled in the waters of Florida, to
raise in Eunq.o the prior question as to the right
of those Governments to speak at all on behalf of
their own Stab's. If they meddle in Cuba, it
might be possible to ‘‘annex’’ to the Federation of
Peoples no; only Cuba but Spain itself; and not
only Spam. Let the maritime spates look to it:
the star-spangled banner in Europe wili have
turned their position.
Nor ncid thrifty English economists be alarm
ed. No English taxes will be needed, unless they
are asked to fight n juirist the Peoples; and then
they can be retired by the Faith'll! Countfons.—
The Federation of Peoples will fight at one great
.advantage against the Holy Alliance, Austria es
pecial!',. The fight with mercenary ar
mies, an 1 Austria has a bankrupt exchequer.—
i iie Federation of Peoples will fight with patriot
forces, and will know how to render the war self
supporting. Yes, tile victories of Governments
?est national debts; but ties victory of the Peo
ples shall purchase their means of redeem’ng na
t’oiial debts. The Two-beaked Eagle governs
only to devour ; but it is a craven bird, accustom
ed to tyrannize, not accustomed to defeat: the
Black Eagle’s a bat among the kings : the Great
Bear of the North is harmless where lie cannot
hug : the Lion of England slumbers, like a lap
dog full of feasting; the Bald-headed Eagle of
the West, fresh from the wilds, hardened to the
elements, bold ill flight, shar’ng the fortune of the
stars, is nneo'iquerod. untamed, unsated ; lie easts
his eye on Europe, and the Atlantic shall not ar
rest his swoop.
1 he Expedition in Search of Sir John Franklin
The ‘Advance.” Capt. De Haven, has
arrived, in the order her name bespeaks,
fr ni a voyage undertaken in philanthro
py, full of peril, full of incident, and
successful in everything but the great
object of her search. The first grand
cause for triumph is, that all her hard
ship, enterpiise and danger have not
cost the sacrifice ot'a single life. How
eminently this blessing is owing to a
pr tecting andever atchfni Providence
will be apparent from a simple narrative
of the incidents that betel the Expedi
tion and the peculiar trials by which the
Advance was tested, in those hitherto |
unknown and untraveled seas. Truly
God was on the waters shaping the des
tiny < f this great mission of Charity, ev- |
en though fated not todiscover the long
lost wander r. But let us begin our‘nar
rative :
“J he American Expedition ontwed Wel
lington's Sound on the ‘Jtilli of Aug., 1850.
where Alley met Cant. Perry with the Lady l
Franklin, timl .Sophia, and. were afterwards
joined bv Sir John Ross mnl Commodore
Austin. Oil the 21th, Capt. Perry discover
ed niMiiistakeable evidence of Franklin's first :
Winter quarters—three graves with inscrip
tions on wooden headboards datin g its late as
April, 1816. Their inmates, according to
those inscriptions, were of Ids cn w—two from
the Fitirebtis and one from the Terror. ‘J here
were beside fr.iguieiits of torn canvas, arti- j
eles of clothing, wood and cordage, un
doubted evidence of a 1 :rgc and long en
campment: but affording no indications which
would serve as guides to these.:, roll -rs or give
assurance, to hope.
<),i the Blli of .September the H.vpedi!io;i :
forced through the ice to Barlow s Inlet, w li to
thev narrowly cse ip ‘d being lock ‘d in tint
ice. But tlmv so far succeeded, and on the
ll th r ached Gritfith’s Island, tli * ultimate
limit of their Western progress. From this
thev set sail on fit ■ FT', e : 'h the. intention
of r turning to Ihe United States, hut were ]
locked in,,near the mouth of Wellington's
Channel. Here commenced those perilous
adventures, anvthing comparable to which, j
were never encountered and sun N ed. By
force of the Northern iced rift they were help
lessly drifted so 75 deg. 25 min. N. lat., and ‘.
thence drifted again into Lanca.st rPSouinl,
somew hat, we should say, in sun ‘h-casterly
direction. ‘Flic agitation of ilia ie ■ elevated
the “Advance” nearly seCcn feet bv the sfe n
and kee.led her 2 feet. 8 incites st rhoard.—
In this position she remain ‘d, with some
slight changes. For live, consecutive months.
Ami while in it the il -pth of winter closed its [
frozen terrors around the expedition. The pol
ar night fell upon them, and forHOtl ys no ray
of solar light broke upon them. Tli** lie rmome
ter (Fahrenheit) r :nged JO degrees below zero ,
and sometimes sank to Hi. Early in this ray.
ful night. (November, sth,) the Rescue was
! abandoned, for the purpose, of economizing i
| th* fuel,and the crews of both vessels deter- j
; mined to brave their fate togetii >r. They |
evert’ moment -expected the embracing ice !
j would crush the vessel into atoms. Mid eons-•*-
i qe.ently stood prepared, shteping in their :
clothes with knapsacks on tlreir b eks. to try
chances on the. ice. mid storm and terror, and
I night. For this terrible ti'id they had made
ev.rv pivpsre.tion, had provision s', edged and
everv thing in readiness which might he use
ful for such a journey. Th ‘V were then 90
i miles from land, and so oortninlv did they ex
! ;ieet that they should make this alarming
j trial that on two occasions, (Bth December
and ti3d January.) the boats were, actually
i lowered and the. crews assembled on the ieo
to await the catastrophe.
During this period the scurvy been me epi
demic, and assumed an alarming character.—
its progress defied all the. usual remedies,
and only three men escaped the attack. Capt.
1)’ H Ivon was himself the greatest sufferer.
! The constant use of fresh water obtained from
; incited ice, active mental and physical exer
j tioft, and the care of Divine Providence, ar
rested any fatal result: and the disease yield
ed to a beverage composed of a sort of apple
tea and lemon juice. After entering Baffin’s
Bay, Jan. 13, the ice became fixed, and the
little expedition became stationary and fast
in the midst of a vast plain of ice. 90 miles
from any land. The stores, materials and
cordage, were stowed away in snow-houses
erected on the ice, and a sort of encampment
was formed, with all the appearance, if not
the solidity, of terra firms. The tables of
| ice varied from three to eight feet in thick
ness.
Nor was this situation of peril and awe,
I without its attractions. Auroras Parhelia—
f (mock suns) and mock moons, of the most
vivid lustre succeeded one another without
! intermission, and as day approached, the twi
( lights, streaking the Northern horizon, were
j vividlv beautiful. At length the God of Day
| showed his golden face (18th February) and
“THK UNION OF THK STATF, S AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE SPATES.”
was hailed with three hearty American cheers.
| Gradually his influence was felt, and the wnx
j en-like color of the complexion, which the
long night Had superinduced, gave place to
i freckles and tan. The disease, too, quickly
disappeared.
On the 13th of May the Rescue was re-oo
eupied.
The disruption of the ice was sudden ana
appalling. In twenty minutes from its first
moving the vast field, as far as the eye could
reach, became one mass of moving floes, and
the expedition once more drifted southward.
By a continued providential assistance it pas
sed the ptjrils of Lancaster Sound and Baffins •
Buy, aml’fin the 10th of June emerged into
open water, lat. 65 deg 30 min. N.. a little
south of the Arctic circle, being thus released
from an imprisonment of nearly nine months.
| during which they helplessly drifted 1,060
miles. While in Lancaster Sound the roar
of water and tumbling ice exceeded all earth-
I ly tumult, and was sometimes so loud and
; stunning as to render both voice and hearing
useless.
Capt. De Haven's first care on his escape
i was to repair damages and restore the health
| and vigor o* the crews. With that object he
visited Greenland, where he refitted. After
; a short delay, with unabated courage and un
i flinching purpose lie once more bore north
ward. On the 7th of July the expedition
spoke some winders, and on the Bth passed
the winding fleet by the Dutch islands, there
arrested by the iee. By the 11th the. Expedi
tion reach Baffin's Island, and entered through
vast mass ‘s of loose, iee. Here the Prince
Alburtjoined. Thev continued in company
till August 2d, warping through the ice. when
the l’rince determined to try the southern
pass ig >. De Haven persevered in his course
until the Bth, when he became completely
entangled in floes and bergs. Here again j
the. Expedition encountered perils ofthe most I
alarming kind. The floating ice broke, in the
bulwarks, and covered th • deck i:i broken
masseslike rocks tumbled pell me!! hy.amomi
t tin torrent. The more than iron endurance
of the gallant ships were severely tested by
the crush of the closing ice, but they rase, to
the pressure as if defying the elemental strife,
-haflled its fiirv, and somew hat disabled, but
still without a plank yielding iit any vital
part, rode s tfely in tm open road on tin*. 19th
day of August.
Here, finding the north -and west already i
closed against them, the Anicric.ui expedition |
set their sails and bore, homeward, after hav- I
ing dared end suffered, anil overcome diffi- !
cultics and dangers such as scarcely if ever J
beset the path of a mariner.
It is supposed the English Expedition
w intered tpr near Fort Martyr, and thence
prosecuted their voyage westward. The Ame
rican Expedition, therefore, was in a position
more favorable to th ■se uadi. It was in a far
higher latite.de, and the so -c tiled voli/wt (op
en sea) could not have been far tiisl mt, but
the inevitable drift into the w.aGrspf Lancas
ter Sound was fatal to its Spring progress,
and fit and to the chances w hich its enterprise
had won.
The officers and crew ofthe other v.css ‘ls
of the expedition were all in good health and j
spirits up to the 13th Sept. 1850.
The Advance parted with her consort in a
heavy g.aie off the Banks. The latter is ex- |
poeted momentarily. The Advance brings j
sever i! fragments from the encampment of!
Sir John Franklin, a pair of fine Esquimaux
dogs and some articles of curiosity.
Thus ends this noble expedition, without
discovering .any satisfactory index to the f..te
of Sir John Franklin: but at the same time
without any evidence to conclude further
hope. Sir John might have won the point
which the* Advance was baulked of by tin* fa
t'd drift into Lancaster Sound. If so, and it
is not impossible, there is no reason to doubt
the possibility of himself and crew surviving
in those regions where nature has adapted
the resources of life to the rigors of the cli
mate.
The gratification of officer", and crew on j
once more reaching their native hand is in no |
small degree by the recollection j
tli it in no scene, no matter how-trying, was j
their trust in and nnitu and love for each oth**r I
interrupt ‘d; and Capt. De Haven retains the
most lively recollection of the gallant, un
flinching conduct of officers and crew.

Incidents of the Cuba Campaign.
A writer, one of the prisoners, communicates to 1
the Philadelphia Inquigr a long, detailed account
of tile Cuba eampa'gii. It agrees, in the main!
parketilurs.widi the statements of Kelly, Summers |
and Van Yeehten. We will extract a few details
of the battle ofthe 13ih. The writer says : /
“The Spatiia'-ds were greatly superior in num
bers. Their force consisted ol fOO inlantry and
1110 laneers, w hieh had been sent from Havana in
steamers. Tile Have under Lopez in this battle
was somctltaig less than ,100. all told. A brisk
fire was commenced, and kept up with great
warmth on both sides. Ihe guns several times
became so heated that the men were obliged to
cease tiring until they cooled. This battle lasted
apout two hours, when both sides ceased by mu
tual consent. Many of the brave fellows wlm. hud j
fought like tigers, were now stretched oil the j
ground, unable to’ rise, because of the extreme ;
heat anil tile fatigue they had undergone. ‘J rip j
enemy having received reinforcements, soon utter j
made another attack, and after many iucffecina! i
en leavers to drive Lopez from his position, were j
themselves re pulsed with considerable loss.
The superior force of the Royalists in both en- j
gaga uiehts was very great, and Lopez's victory, I
decided as it was upon this occas’nn, can only be
attributed to bis men being stu b excellent m;a‘ks
mgji. Sane of them fired ut none but officers,
wh eh ne ‘'Hints for tile gr at mortality among that I
el ‘ss. who were picked oil by the youngest of the
liberators. But to give the Royal tro >ps their
due, they certa’n'y eame- up. to the charge like
men. Gen. Lopez’s little army had sutiered se
verely. In the last charge made by the Royalists
tile brave (’ol. Dowmiian was killed ; he rec-eived
; noles-than wounds. Lt. *l. B. Lahuzan was
killed at the same t’me. Lt. Her n and the Cap
j tain of the Unban company, with about 25 privates,
I all fell in this last engagement. Gui. Lojiez,
| however, niainta’ned his position at Las Pozhs un
! til midnight ol the 13tii, when Capt. Kelly arrived
j with about thirty of the oik- hundred and Jiftcerj i
men left inuLr die commun'd of Col. Crittenden,
n charge of the baggage at Morale, and reported !
! the disastrous ‘ntelrgcnee of the complete disper
j s'on of the Colon;Ts command in a vain attempt
j to join the headquarters at Lis Pesos.
Many instances of licro’sm and personal devo
| tion were displayed towards each other by this
I handful of brave men. When Lopez found him
j self compelled evacuate Las Rosas, neither
threats nor entreat’es iH.nld induce one young man
jto quit th • tie of a comrade who had been fear
! fuliv wounded in the battle, and lie was accord!ng
j ly shot by the Spanish troops, alongside of his
friend, when they took gissossion of the place.—-
Capt. Robert Ellis owed his life to young Thom
ason. (a son of Dr. James Thomason, of Summer
tield.jDallas county,) who carried him in his arms
from Lis Rosas to a place of safety, when they
left the tow T n; otherwise, his fate would have been
that of the other wounded, who were butchered
in their beds. t
Gen. Pragay, upon seeing the Spanish soldiery
enter the hospital in w’hich he was lying danger
ously. if not mortally, wounded, unable to help
himself, blew his brains out with a pistol.
The captives were all confined together in one
large room in the Presidio department of the Ha
j vana jail. Their heads were closely shaved, hea
vy chains put upon them, and the ordin-iry dress
of convicts given to them, to put on in the room
of their tattered garments. The floor, a eompo
-1 sition of mud and stones, of this room, was very
| damp, and the prisoners, especially the wounded,
I suffered severely for the want of blankets and other
! covering to protect them, when sleeping, from its
I bad effects.” ■
The writer is warm in his expressions of admi-
I ration for Mr. Crawford, the British Consul, and
i Mr. Smith, his Secretaty, whose intercession with
PEfcTttT’ JB&Z IE L •]
the Captain-General procured for the prisoners
clothes and food for all, had the fetters struck from
their limbs, and the sick aud wounded comforta
bly provided for at tiie hospital, while our Consul,’
Owen—eternal shame and curses on his name 1 —
made no efforts to ameliorate their condition !
Cuba and the Triple Alliance.
‘Hie last steamer from Europe, the Bailie, in
forms us that a treaty Ims been made between
England, France and .Spain, guaranteeing to the
last the possession of Cuba. When the principal
sovereigns of continental Europe formed what
was called the Holy Alliance about thirty years
ago, to guarantee their respective thrones aud
possessions to each other, Euglaiidd’efusednnd re
pudiated the connection, and in this country it
was universally denounced, even by Mr. Clay and
Mr. Webster.
The object of the n--.v. triple alkane'’ is the
same in pi-inc pie, aud its design is to maintaiu a j
despotic government near the American shore .l’
the Atlantic. It is true that, as is reported, Cuba
Is to have a local legislature and a representation
in the Spanish Cortez. But in Spain the Cortez j
is.almosta nominal tiling, and a representation of
Cuba in it would be the shadow of a shade. The
interests of Cuba are as distinct from those of
Spain, and ;ts incompatible as those of tax-payer
and tax receiver—and unless protected by an equal
vote in the Cortez with the mother country, would
be of no value, except for speech-making,—and
the value of that we have seen in the American
Congress, where the South lias a considerable
corps of speech-makers. As for the local legisla
ture of Cuba, it is not of course permitted to pass
any law without the sanction of the Spanish crown.
, Die ostensible or the avowed reason of this
sudden coalition in Europe, is rather too glaringly
inadequate. Two expeditions of some four hun
dred men each, have been fitted out ill this coun
try; and after being watched and chased bv the
navies of the United States and Spain, succeeded
in lauding on the island. One of them speedily
made its escape, and the other was speedily crash
ed. Both events were proclaimed as evidence of j
Creole loyalty. And yet now, although, as is as- |
sorted. the people of the island are unanimously i
opposed to all change of government, and to all I
filibusters, and have the aid of a Spanish force of
twenty thousand men always on hand to help
them, and the power of Spain to reinforce them,
suddenly the two most formidable kingdoms of
Europe come forward’to guarantee the continu
ance of the Spanish government.
Now, the most conservative o’ men in tills i
pommy, and all the I bora! party ill Europe, have !
always maintained the doctr ne of non-intervon- j
tion in the affairs of one country bv the govern !
meats of others. Blit here is an intervent on of j
two foreign powers not only to ma’ntain an exist- ;
ing system of government, but to modify the in
stitutions of a people. Til’s movement is no doubt 1
regarded by the parties to it as a cunning thing, i
But in our opinion it is like many other cunning |
tilings—it is not wise.
Our government and people liar; ’Lvays acqui
esced ill the exclusive possession of Cuba by Spain
—because, although Cuba commands the Gull of
Mex co, and more lately our eoiiinraii’elition with ;
California and the Racine, we knew Spain was I
not strong enough to endanger them. Cuba he- I
comes a very difllrent thing, however, when it :
becomes a protegee or colony of England and j
France. It s their ally—.and as such, will give i
tli'iii peculiar privileges and favors in peace or
war. But there is another point of still mor;’ ini- i
portance. Whilst Cuba was connected onlv with |
Spa n, we had no reason to apprehend a change
of the institution*ftHJuha,’ vvleeh are identical with !
those of our own States in her neighborhood. But (
with this new French and English connection, I
there ; N reasojl to fear—what we learn is already
reported—a change m the Institutions <> r < luba, so
n to make them hostile and dangerous to all the
neighboring States ofthe South, and to several of
those on the Mississippi. If Ill’s new treaty pro
vides for ult’inate eniniie'pat’on. then it is obv’ous
that if we acquire Cuba by purchase, or in anv
other manner, w hilst th s 1 uioii continues, the
north will enforce the emancipation stipulation.—
Such is one of the consequences of a connection
of the South with the North.
But whatever may be the foot as to ties ques
ton in ties treaty, Cuba henceforth becomes an
object of jealousy not only to the Smith, but to the j
whole people, and to any ndmiuisti'at’on of com- 1
prehension and sagaolly. Whilst our government !
was exerting its power to the utmost to prevent j
the filibusters from making Cuba American. Etisr- j
land sapped in arid made it English—English ;
comiiierc ally, jiohtiealiy, socially and strategeti- i
cully.
Now, with all due defer nee to the phar’.sa’c I
conscrvntiMiu iUat,defended the butchery of the I
fi tv captives as purges and roHbors-, wo think
they had just as muell right to inter!’, re with the j
■nstitufons of Culm ns Queen V-’otovia mid Rros’-
dent Bonaparte, their m nlsteis and cabinets. Wo
tlfink the filibuster Intervention honestly intended
more rood to the people of Cuba Ilian the Euro
pean. and, wo have no doubt, was more in accord
ance with thirir wishes. And we think that, al
though some mi.- eha f mav he done, an immensely
greater amount will he prevented hy the jieacea
ble purchase of that island by the United States.
In ease Spabi is wilfng to sell, we advise England
to acquiesce. —Southern Press.

Accident to Ex-Governor Seabrook
Extract of a letter from Pendleton to a gen
tleman of Charleston.
“I regret to inform you that on the 20th
instant Gov. Seabrook sustained an alarming
injury by the upsetting of h : s carriage, about
twelve miles from this place. In descending
a hill the pole of his carriage broke, and the
reins in the hands of the driver subsequently
giving way, the horses became unmanagea
ble and run ofl. The Governor received sev
eral wounds on his forehead, especially a
deep one over his right eye, and severe bruis
es on the top of his head and parts of his
body, which rendered him insensible for
about two hours. At present he is much
better, although a considerable time must
elapse before he Is restored to health.

and pat out the fire before it extended to anv other

rance on his stock, but we could not learn the
amount, and it can hardly cover his gn-at loss, as
his stock which was-not burned is almost ruined
by being wet.

be excused for a little malice, —and as
the subject is a fit one for certain val
uable reflections and suggestions, vve
may be further excused for reminding
these patriotic gentlemen that it was on
that occasion they passed the following
resolution:
“6th Resolved, That we entertain for
our brethren ofthe North, true fraternal
regard; lhat we cannot and will not en
tertain the slightest dotu/t of the good
faith which will mark their observance
of all the terms of tiic Compromise; and
that, whilst we regard with indignation
the lawless violence of unprincipled
fanatics, who have made themselves
conspicuous in their efforts to evade or
resist the law, we. preserve unshaken
our reliance on the good sense and law
abiding spirit of the masses of the peo
ple, who will subdue these fanatics with
the firm heart and resolute spirit which
they have inherited from the men ofthe
Revolution.”
It was on the same proud and jubilant
occasion that one ot the orators, —no
less and individual than our distinguish •
ed Senator, Gen. Downs, —declared that
he was amazed that expressions of a
want of confidence in the disposition of
the North to carry out the Compromise
in good faith, should be borne with in
this community. i\ow, we desire that
the Union patriots of the St. Charles
platform should be reconvened tor the
purpose of considering the tollowing
.I'a.ts, of recent occurrence, and of hav
ing ihe views of General Downs on the
same, in order to show their remark
able sagacity and presciences
First —The arrest, and imprisonment
for life, in Pennsylvania, of a citizen of
Maryland who captured a fugitive slave,
and not desiring to violate all the laws
of humanity, would not separate the
slave mother from the child, which was
born in Pennsylvania, —and who, for
this, was thus convicted of kidnapping
and sentenced as stated.
Secondly—The murder of a respect
able and venerable citizen of Maryland,
and the mortally wounding oi his son
ami severe wounding ot the United
States Marshal, by a gang of tree ne
groes, a few miles from the great city
of Philadelphia, and iri the most thickly
settled country in the United States, —
and the successful resistance to the writ
and process of the United States Courts.
Thirdly—The rescue of a fugitive
slave arrested by the United States Mar
shal, at Syracuse, on 2d October 1851,
by a mob, armed with clubs, axes,
crowbars,.&rc , who broke the arm ot
the United Stales officer, and t‘:e arrest
of the unfortunate slave-owner, and his
commitment to prison tor kidnapping
his own slave.
We think, for the present, these facts
will be sufficient for the digestion of our
talking,—bone turkey-eating-Unionists.
We fear however, that these are but the
prelude to still stronger proofs otthe re
markable sagacily ol our fellow citizens
who, less than a year ago. declared in
the St. Charles Theatre their reliance —
“In the good sense and law-abiding
spirit ofthe Northern masses of ihe
people, who will subdue those fanat
ics with the firm heart and resolute spir
it which they have inherited from the
men ofthe Revolution.
AT I-All foil (huTXKM>KX. Me extract
the-following paragraph from a letter, writ
ten !>v an intelligent and accomplished lady a
native of Cuba to a. friend in Providence R. I.
The letter is dated Hav.m i, August the 28th
1851:
“How-sorry I felt for young Crittenden:
with him were fifty one others taken and
brought to Havana with their hands bound
behind their backs like-banditti. They were
scolii and and booted at-by the mob.
One .fellow went up to Crittenden and
stroked Ids heard,oit which the latter, with
• perfect, coolness, spat in the aggressor’s face
4,11(1 a Spanish officer who guarded him, be
ing incensed with the cruel conduct.of the
people, struck the insulting Cuban in the
face with the butt of his gun. Finding tlu*
difficulty of keeping the mob in prudent lim
its. the (iencud ordered th.it no more prison
ers should be brought to Havana. —Critten-
den askqd, as an only favor, that lie might lie
shot ns corresponded with the honor of an
Amerie m officer, one who h id distinguished
hiinseif in the Mexican war, as his scars
would show; he said he was resigned to meet
his f.,te. for he did not fear death, but he
feared the disgrace of being shot iike a pi
rate; the favor was refused, and he with the
other fifty one were shot in the, back; they
were all made to kneel except the hero Crit

standing. How this young man’s fate has
grieved me: wh ;t a pity such a brave and no
ble spirit should have been so castaway. r i he
Captain General was so much moved that be
wished instead of shooting them all, to let
them only execute, of every five, one; but
the council of war would not accede to the
proposition. Our bishop has also interest
ed himself in their behalf, but without suc
cess.”
The United States Steamer Mississip
pi.—A Smyrna date of August 26 says:
‘•'l he United States steamer Mississippi
ran aground close under St. James’ Castle
when entering the gulf on the morning of Au
gust 22d, but was afloat again yesterday
after discharging water, coal, guns, Ac.,
Another account goes on to say:
The American frigate Mississippi, placed
at the disposal of Kossuth b v the President of
the United States, was to repair from Smyr
na to 7 the Dardanelles on the Ist of Septcm-
^ —■ . ..
ber, to await his arrival. On the same day*
the refugees would quit KutahLi and embark
at Jemelk, in a Turkish steamer, for the Dar
danelles. Kossuth was to be aceommpanied
by M. Lemtni, a Tuscan, his private Secreta
ry; by Generals Pereei und Wisekyjby Count
Bathany with their families, and twenty oth
er superior officers. The frigate will convey
these personages to America, stopping for a
few days at England.
Abolition Riot .in Syracuse.
We Lave already a repetition ot the Christians
outrage. Another slave lias been rescued in
blood and outrage from the hands of the Federal
I authorities. Georgia lias just said, by-an ovc-r-
I ( helming popular majority, that the Compromise
xives peace and security to the South. The city
>f Syracuse, in the great State of New \ ork, .re
plies in treasonable acts, with stones, bludgeons,
uid fire-arms, that it is a miserable mistake. The
Syracuse Star gives the following account of the
affair. \\ e publish it, simply, for information,
and not for the purpose of excit ng the South Vo
resistance : that were a hopeless task.
The riot commenced in the Commissioner's
office in the second story of the Townsend block/
The principal instigators of it were two physicians
and a clergyman of this city. The fugitive was
seized by a negro carman of this city.
“ The fugitive was re-captured and consigned to
the Police-Office?’ Then the abolitionists renewed
the excitement, and their orators, by inflammatory
appeals toHlic crowd which collected in front >4
die office, strove by every means in their power
U) incite them to all assault upon the Marshal and
his asffistr.nts.
“ This disgraceful state oPafliuft cmrtiimedfrom
3 P. M. till tiie rescue of the fugitive at 8i A. M ,
this while the Mayor made no attempt to
di -po rse the mob or to restore or Jcl- and obedient-*
to the laws, further than to ask the rioters indi
vidually to go home! lie never addressed tin*
mob—never read tlu* riot act—never, in a word,
exercised so nuiuli authority as an efficient magis
trate would lmve done in the ease of an ordinary
affray among two or three persona.
“ The sheriff be ng called upon for assistance by
tlu- Marshal, very promptly requested the com -
manders of the Citizen Corps, the National
Guards and the Washington Artillery, to order
out their companies. Ties order was as prompt
ly ooiiij.fi ed with* and the companies were assem
ble! at their Armories, ready lor duty, each man
being supplied with three rounds oi ball cartridges
Before marching to die sheriff’s office, however.
Col. O. J. Vandcnburgh, the commander of the
regiment, issued his order to the captains of the
three companies, forbidding them to turn out l
lie did this at the solicitation of Gluts. A. Whea
ton and other leading abylitioirsls, and in accord
anee with his own personal prejudices —since he
was heard to express a desire that the law should
not be executed , and his own determination to
do all in his power to prcretil its execution.
“ Having received an order from their Colonel
to disband, the commanders of the companies had
no alternative but to obey, and the Uioops welt*
accordingly dismissed.
“ When it became known to the mob tliat tin*
troops were dismissed, they renewed their men
aces against the officers, and the black and white
scoundrels who addressed them redoubled their
exertions to inflame them to the point, requisite
for the accomplishment of their infernal purpose.
The Police Office, in which the Commissioner
was then holding his examination of the case, was
assailed with stones and the windows broken, un
til it became impossible to proceed with the case.
An hour and a half after the adjournment, the
doors were forced in and the fugitive rescued.
Several prominent citizens of Syracuse were
engaged in tiie riot, and have, therefore, rendered
themselves amenable to the law. The punish
ment for their offence is a fine of SIOOO and im
prisonment for three years in the State Prison. —
This will be a severe penalty for them to pay for
the misdeeds of Wednesday last, but not more se
vere than many a poor man is compelled to un
dergo for crimes lar less enormous, all things con
sidered, than theirs.”
The Rochester American says : “ Stones w ora
. thrown, pistols were fired, eVe. The negro was
in a hack room, the door of which was closed. —
This was held last by Mr. Fitch, deputy marshal
of this city, but was soon broken down by tho
mob, who struck Mr. F. most violently, breaking
bis left arm in two places.
“ The mob teas composed chiefly of ichite men,
and was swelled by the strangers in the city, it
being the day of the County Fair, and an Aboli
tion Convent on—the latter of which was on hand
for a full delegation of law-breakers.”
The best part of the joke is yet to he told,
and it is the usual winding up ofthe attempts
of Southern masters to recover their property
J that is when they do not lose their lives. It
| is. that wliilo the fugitive escaped, the claim
; ant was himself caught and put in limbo.
| A despatch says:
P. J. Lear, claimant of the alleged fugitive
slave, was arrested as a kidnapper on a war
rant issued by Justice Hoare, on the complaint
of G. A. Wheaton, lie will have an examin
ation this morning.
THIRD DESPATCH.
(Syracuse, Oct. 2
Mr. Lear, the agent for the, claimant, gave
J hail, this morning, to appear for trial, on tho
! charge of being a Kidnapper. No attempt
| was made to nicaptiire Terry after his rescuo
! from the police office and is now undoubted
ly beyond the reach of the U. S. authorities.
The general topic of conversation this
morning, is the success‘ill escape, which scents
to afford the most unmitigated satisfaction.
The Chevalier Bayap.d.—When his
mother was told thatiher youngest son was
on his horse, impatient to begone, descend
ing from the tower of the castle, whither she
had retired to weep hitter tears for his de
parture, she thus addressed and commanded
of him three things: the first was, “to lovo
God above all things, and recommend himself
niuht and morning to God, and serve him
without offending in any way. if it might ho
possible.” The second was “to be courteous
to all men, casting away pride: neither to
slander or lie. nor to he a tale hearer, ana
loyal.” The third was, that “he should be’
charitable, and share w.ith the poor whatever
i gifts God should bestow upon him.” These?
| were commands which he implicitly obeyed;
j and for his observance of them he was in
j doited for a title far above that of prince o.;
j noble, that of otlie knight without fear and
! without reproach.” From boy to man he
’ was beloved and respected for his courtesy
| bravery, benevolence, invincible integrity and
! piety; ‘ Francis the First would receive tho
honor of knighthood from no hands but his.
Being ogee asked what possessions a mart
had best leave to his son. Bayard replied:

Being mortally woundt djn ajaattle in which

Bourbon, the. Chevaii-r Bayard caused him
j self to he placed against a tree. In this sitn

i for his -ate. “Pity not me.” said the ( hev
j alier. “I die in the discharge of my duty: but
! pity those who fight against their country
J and their oath.” i
