The Committee of Twenty-Five haring noil fled wo (bat the Committee la prepared to report a Ticket fbr Mayor and Aktenncn, a meeting of the ClUxena la called, to be bold at the Exchange, This Evening, at half-part 7 o'clock, to receive and acton the report, MULFORD MARSH, Chairman. Synod, of Georgia. MONDAY, NOYNMIBR 28, 0* A. M. The Synod met and was opened with prayer. Borne two boura were apent In dlacuaalng a motion tor the re consideration of a vote taken on Saturday, adopting ■ certain exceptions to the Minutes of Hopewell Presby tery. These exceptions were, Jtret, that a Church was organized within the bounds or the Presbytery, without previous authority asked and obtained from the Preaby tcry,that body receiving the Church subsequently under Its care, without condemning the Irregularity. Among the power* of a Presbytery, there Is distinctly recognized In our form of government that of “ forming and recelv. lug new Churches,” this power not being conceded to Individual MlnUters, except to evangelism, and In case* where it would be exceedingly Inconvenient to seek and obtain the required permission. This exception the Bynod originally sustained. The other exception referred to the neglect of Presby tery In a certain judicial case, to direct that the accused be furnished with a copy of the charges, and that cita tions bo issued to witnesses, *0. This exception also was sustained. After the long discussion on the ques tion of reconsideration, the Bynod refused to do so. The Synod then heard the report of the Committee to whom was referred the report of the Trustees of the Syn odical Female College at Greensboro’. This Institution has been In operation tor a year, under favorable aus pices. It la now laboring under some pecuniary embar rassment, which it Is hoped the church and a liberal com munity will not long permit to exist. One commendable thing In Its management Is, that Public Exhibitions are dispensed with, and the young ladles are withheld from positions before mixed audiences, so naturally and so Justly trying to the retiring modesty that is one of wo man's loveliest ornaments. 8ynod beard other reports from Committee on Ogle thorpe University, from Synodical Committee on Educa tion, from Committee on Narrative, which were severally received and adopted. Exceptions were offered to the Minutes of Cherokee Presbytery, most of which were sustained. An,interesting written address was read on the over ture in regard to church organizations composed wholly of negroes, which bad been written by Rev. S. I. Cassius. The Freshet In South Carolina—Death of Col* Singleton. We regret to learn that there was some foundation for tbe rnmor alluded to in our issue of yesterday, in regard 'to a melancholy casualty on tho Camden Branch of tbe South Carolina Railroad. Tbe excessive rains have done much Injury to the Road, and hence the accident It appears that on Friday evening, as the Camden train was proceeding from tbe junction towards the Water##, the bank and culvert near Clarkson’s Turnout having been loosenod by tbe recent heavy rain, tbe cars were precipitated over the bank, instantly killing Col. Siholb- tor and his grandson. At first It was feared that several others were seriously injured, and that limbs had been fractured, but we are glad to team that tbe fractures turned out to be bruises. The engine paseed over, bnt ) dashed to pieces. No passenger in the passenger car* was injured. Col. Binolston and grandson were in the baggage car. We learn from tbe same source that other Injuries were sustained by the Camden Road. Tbe Edlrto river was higher than It was during the freshet of 1840, and at the tut accounts was still rising. The smaller streams were also higher. Tbe Hamburg cars did tut arrive in Charleston Saturday evening until 8 o’clock, in con sequence of a mass of earth In tbe new excavation at Aiken, which was saturated by the late rains,having slid down upon the track that morning, and completely blocked It up for about one hundred feet. We do not bear of any other damage to the Charleston and Ham burg Road. The Freshet 01a the Central Bond. We are indebted to Mr. Fulton (conductor) for the* following despatch, dated at Griffin's yesterday morning: “Tbo Central road Is much washed and under water at various points from Macon down to tbe dinner bouse. There are passenger and provision trains at No. 13—and two down freight trains at number lA^one at No. 18. Tbe cars have not been through since Wednesday—no trains are running through tbe upper end of tbe road. The Oconee and Ogechee bridges are safe. The telegraph 1 is badly Injured from No. 10 to No. 13. No lives were lost on the whole Una. The MUledgevUle 4c Gordon Railroad la in running order.” The train which left thle city yesterday morning, re turned at five In the afternoon. Mr. Chasi.ton, the con ductor, reports tbit Coorza’s field at tbe fifty-eight mile port was overflowed and the culvert gone. The water was three or tour feet deep over the track at tbe sixty- four mile post, and the track floating. The water at that point was still rising. 61r. CnABLTON informs ns that none of the' bridge* this sldo of No. 10 have been carried oft ‘ Tbe track baa been displaced In several places, and a number of cal verts washed out—nothing more. Tbe DeKslb Riflemen, Copt. Gahaul, yesterday cele brated their second anniversary. They paraded with toll ranks at an early boar In tbe morning, and marched a abort distance from the dty, where they spent tbe day very pleasantly. This, though the youngest, Is one of our most spirited volunteer corps. A Bavarhab Mar Lost.—The Charleston Courier learns by way of Augusta, that “ a merchant on Market- square, Savannah, or tbe name of Watts, who took pas sage one day last weak on board the steamer Ortgtn at 8avannah, was missed when within four mllesof Augusta. Diligent search was made for him on board tbe boat but be could not be found. It Is supposed be fell overboard.” Florida BbkvksThe steamboat Florida, on berlast trip from Jacksonville to Charleston, carried as a part of her cargo, thlrty-flve beeves. Fare Reddczd.—Tbo British aud North American Steamship Company, (the Cunard Hue,) have reduced the rate of passage from Boston to Liverpool to 9100; the price heretofore has been 9120. New Hammhire Senator.—Charles O. Ather ton has been elected U. B, Senator for New Hampshire, In place or John P. Hals, whose term expires 4lh of March next. STnu Freshet at Auousta.—The Augusta ConstUu- f tionaUot states that during Saturday the river was fall ing. It had risen to Ihe height of about twenty-eight feet above low water mark. But little damage, however, has been sustained In that vicinity, although there is reason to apprehend throughout Georgia and Alabama great injury to bridges, lands, and crops that have not been gathered. European 0orrospoutlor.ee of the Republican. PARW,NOV.4lb,183i • Dear RrpnUlttn: Last Monday was AlfcBalnts day, which, you know, la bars a day of f|to. It was celebrated with great porno In all the churches. Tboeewbodldnot attend In tbatoU and pious spirit of tba occasion, want to enjoy tbo delightful music, which at such times Is un usually impressive. I listened that day to tome truly sublime harmony at St. Rocha’s, so celebrated for Its music. After tba Church festivals are over, U la custom ary to visit tbe various cemeteries, and contribute floral offerings to tbe resting places or. departed kindred end Mends. This Is a lovely custom, though the publicity of the occasion somewhat dlmlutshea the beauty or the Idea. The cemeteries are crowded to repletion. At Fere la Chaise, though the day was wet and disagreeable, one found It frequently a labor to make bead-way. It seemed more a scene of mirth and fortuity than expressive of any particular regsrd for tbs memory of by-gone human ity. The French, however, are peculiar In this respect, and in many others, and nothing of the kind excites sur prise. They put a philosophical view on every thing. Tho solemnity of death Is with them something of a tax on tho feelings. They do not tolly appreciate It. They carryout tbo principle or letting the “dead past bury their dead." They are willing to honor the departed, but It must be In their own way. Few tears must be re quired. They will deck tbe tomb with floral wreaths, but it would be unkind to exact a sigh—at least the sigh must not he profound. In my last, I think I mentioned that Abdel Kader was on his way to Brouasa. That proved not exsolly so. He had expressed a great desire to be allowed to visit Paris, and personally thank Louis Napolron for his liberation. This favor was granted him, and several days since be ar rived In Paris. The Prince President has been very gra cious to him, and be has met every where in publlo tbe highest evidences of regard and admiration. At tbe Grand Opera the other evening, although the President was in tho house with a host of distinguished characters, Abdrl Kader was the “observed of all observers.” Ills part career and recent captivity havo rendered him the object of Intense Interest. Pardon me, if I give some extracts from his address to the President on the occasion of his visit to 8L Cloud. He had been presented by tbe Minister of War. “ Yon “have,” said be,“ been good and generous to me. I owe “to you tbe liberty which others have promised, which “you had nst promised, and whleh yon have In the mean “timeaccorded me. 1 swear to you never to violate the “oath which 1 have taken. 1 know that It has been said “ l will (all In my promises, but do not believe It. I am “boundbygrstUude,andmy word. You have bad con. “fldence In me; you havo not credited those who doubt, “od me; you have placed me at liberty, and 1 hare “sworn solemnly to you 4y the eovonnnt of Qod, by hie "prophet* uni kit ministers, that 1 will never do any “ thing to remove tbe confldeoce you have placed In me; “thatlwlll not (Ml In my promises; that I will never “ forget your kindness; that I wiU never again set foot In “ Algeria. When God willed that I shonld conclude war “with the French, I did so. When ho willed that I “should cessefighting, 1 submitted to his decision, and “ withdrew from the scene of strife. My religion and my “noble origin Impel me to preserve my oaths and reject “all fraud. 1 am a witness to the grandeur of your em- “ plre, of the power of your arms, or tho Immense wealth “of France, of the equity of her leaders, and tho upright- “ness of their actions. It is Impossible to believe that “any one can conquer you, or successfully oppose your “will, unless it bo the All-Powerfol God. I trust In your “ generosity and kindness, that yon will vouchsafe to me “ a place In your heart, and that you have placed me In “the circle of your friends. 1TI do not equal them In my “ services. I equal them, at least, In the good feeling I “ bear to you. I have nothing more to add, unless It bo, “ again, that I rely upon your friendship. I tender you “ my good wishes, and renew to yon my oath.” Yesterday there was a review of Cavalry at Versailles, at which Abdel Kader was present The day proved charming—and though the number of horso was Incon siderable for Paris, tbe review gave much satisfaction. I was too late to witness It, but etjoyed tbe after scenes. Tbe Arab warrior made a tour through the grounds of tho Palace, accompanied by a brilliant cortege. He was magnificently mounted on a flue white Arabian bone, one tendered by tbe prince President, caparisoned after the Arabian style, and of the most admirable action. The hero was In the toll costume of hit native country, and formed of himself quite uninteresting picture. Uls face Is one which once seen, will never be forgotten. There Is a melancholy In it which causes the bystander to lapse into mute admiration. Ho seems ever to smile —a smile, however, not of the mouth, but singularly diffused over tbe entire countenance. To the thousands who gathered around him, as be passed slowly through tbo many avenues of the Palace demesne, he bowed with gentleness and grace. There was no furore—but he was followed and gaxed upon llko some visitant from another world. Tbe fountains, an unusual thing, were all playing, and the statues baring most or them been recently cleaned up, gave evidence that Versailles Is des tined to resume something of her pert splendor. Abdel Kader goes hence to Lyons shortly, thence to tbe East. A meeting bas recently been held In London, the object of which was to sympathize with the foreign refugees residing in that city. Among those invited to be present and address the meeting, I observed tbe name of Kos suth, of whom the world bas beard llule for some months. A letter from him declining the invitation was read be fore the meeting, which, this morning, 1 see In the Paris Journal?. The substance la that he bas speechified enough, and bas concluded that be can do as much and moro for European democracy by keeping quiet than by addressing assemblies in England, from whom he Is sat isfied the cause of democracy has littis In the way of assistance to expect, lie says—the wealthy are very well contented, and feel Uttie Interest in the triumph of democracy—while the poorer classes bare sufficient to do In taking care or themselves from day to day, and have no time to get np enthusiasm for European liberty, all of which Is very sensible. It would have been better for himself and his cause, bad 'he arrived at Ibis conclu sion twelve months ago. The prospective exposition of the arts of all nations in New York next May, occasionally forms the source of Journal gossip. Quito an attempt at wit on the subject caught my eye a few days since. The writer, after In dulging himself in some eloquent allusions to the several crystal palaces which the present age bad brought forth —each successive one surpassing the preceding—specu lates upon tbe probable magnificence of the American enterprise. His wonder Is much excited, and he Is strangely extravagant In tztlsmaUea points. He says, if tbe European nations do not come forward with their articles for exposition, It is probable tbe Americans may be compelled to call upon the savages of tbe West to bring in tbelr bows, arrows, and moccasins. In case these should fell them, or prove Inadequate to the filling of so iauamssan edifice, perhaps tbe dernier resort would be to engage Tom Ponce to give them some of his enter tainments! I hope bis suggestions may bo noticed in case or necessity. There Is considerable speculation on tbe probability of a collision between our country and Bpaln, the feeling evidently being quite favorable to the latter. As yet we have not learned the result of the American envoy’s visit to Havana. In esse or a clash, France, It Is hinted hy many, will come to the assistance of Spain, the relations between the two countries being now of the most amica ble nature. However, as yet this is but Idle specula tion, and deserves not, perhaps, serious consideration. I hare no fear that we shall fall to protect the honor of our flag against tbe combined world. Wbat tbluk you of the Senwekolcral Is it not mere ly Chur atari J BAG. Tbe railed Slate* aad Cuba. During tba recent session of Congress, Ihe House of Reprreealatlree passed a resolution calling upon the President for sny Instructions from the Department of State to the diplomat!© agents of tha United State* abroad, declaratory of, or relating to, tbepolley of our Government In relation lo the Island of Cuba, the pro mulgation of which would not bo incompatible with tbe publlo Interest. They were furnished, and Ihe House seems to have felled to look Into them, for they havo only just appeared In print, having been ordered to be printed under the usual format action In such mailers.

To-morrow we will give the dispatches of Mr. Bounders In reply. Mr. Bnthtnon to Mr. Stuniort.—[Extract] [No.21.] Divestment or Statr, Washington, June 17,1848. , Stat By direction or the President, 1 now call your at tention to the present condition aud future prospects of Cub*. Tho fete of this Island must ever be deeply inter esting to the people »f tho Uulted Stales. We are con tent that It shall continue to be a colony of Spain. Whilst In her possession, we have nothing lo apprehond. Be- atdes, we are bound to ber by the ties of ancient friend ship, and wa sincerely desire to render these perpetual. But we can never cousont that this island shall become a colony of any other European Power. In the posses sion or Great Britain, or ant strong uaval Power, It might prove ruinous both to tho domestic and foreign com merce, and even endanger the Union of Stales. Tho highest and first duty of every Independent nation la to provide for Us own safety; and, acting upon this princl- .. *---••* •- tolled to resist the acquf— * ‘lb all tli and this must depend upon the amount of the Imports. This wo can ascertain for many years up, till 1844 In- elusive, from the tables published annually by tha lnten- dente of the Island. The following tabular statement, extracted from Hunt's Mtgoxim, la doubtless oorrect: furs Imports. Exports, 1840r... 924,700,180 31* 925,041,783 37* 1841*> 33,081,400 50 28,774,614 50* 1842,U.\. 24,037,527 25 20,084,7111 00 1843 ....... 23,432,090 43* 2*029,702,69* 1844 25,050,931 00* 25,420,591 18* Admitting that these Imports have Increased to twenty- six editions of dollars since 1844, and estimating the average rate of our duties under tho existing tailff at 25 percent, which the Secretary of tho Treasury Informs me la oorrect within a small fraction, therevenue from plo, we should be compell Cuba by any powerful maritime 8tate, witb all t whleh Providence has placed nt onr command. Cuba Is almost within sight of tbo Coast of Florida, situated between that State and the peninsula or Yuca tan, and possessing the deep, capacious, and lmpregna- bly fortified harbor or Havana. If tbla (aland were under tho dominion of Great Britain, she could command both the inlets to the Gulf of Mexico. She would thus be ena bled. In lime of war, effectively to blockade the mouth of the Mississippi, and to deprive all the Western Btates or thia Union, as well aa those within the Guft teeming they are with an Industrious and enterprising populatlc-. or a foreign market for their immense productions. But this Is not the worst: ahe could also destroy the com merce by sea between our porta on the Gulf and our Atlantic porta, a commerce of nearly as great a value as tho whole of our foreign trade. Ia there any reason to believe that Great Britain desires to acquire the Island of Cuba? We know that It has been her uniform policy, throughout her part history, to arize upon every valua ble commercial point throughout the world, whenever circumstances have placed thia in her power. And what point ao valuable as tho Island of Cuba? Tbe United 8tated are the chleT commercial rival of Great Britain; our tonnago at the present moment Is Tha excess of females over males In England, is 400,- 000; In Scotland, 150,000, and In Ireland, 120,000. The Washington Monument Is now one hundred and twenty-two reel high, and will, In all probability, before the dose of the building season, reach the bright of one hundred and twenty-four feet. It has yet to reach an ad ditional elevation of three hundred and seventy-six feet to make It what it to Intended to bo—tho most lofty edi fice in the world. Lkttexs av tbe Million.—Over ninety-three mil lions of letters passed through the Post Office of the Uni ted Btates during tbe fiscal year, (from June ’51, to Jane, ’52.) Tbo revenae under the reduced rates of postage bas fellen off nearly a million of dollars. -Convention or Slaveholdsks.—A convention of owners of slaves from Mason, Bracken and other coun ties of Kentncky, has been called to devise some way of preventing tbe escape of slaves. They would have slave protection societies formed In each county In Kentucky, each to have a punning committee. A census to be taken of all the slaves Ineach county owned by mem- bera—a fond raised to pay a stipulated reward for r* capture and the expenses of the pursuit of the slaves of members—(0 pay to citizen* of free States for tbe cap. tore or fugitives at tbe following rates: 9300 for a slave ovsr 16 years old, 9100 for younger ones, and 930 for In- formation which results In the capture of a fugitive. Another Wuzelareow Paiiexoer.—An intelligent young German scholar named KamthacseN, arrived at St. Louis, a ft w days ago, having walked tbe entire dis tance from New-York dty, and carried with him a valu able library or standard scientific works, upon a wheel barrow. He came to this country upon a scientific tour, but by some mean* finding himself short of money, be left New-York with twenty cents in his pocket, his wheel barrow and his library. He slates that the tour bas been, thus for, one of extraordinary Interest to him, and rendered doubly ao on'account of tbo excellent fecllltlca be possessed of making examinations of whatever came In hla way, He continues tho four soon, and leaves for tbe8outb. lions, at a cheaper rate than these could be raised in any of ber possessions. * « • » But lot me present another view of tho subject If Cuba were annexed to tho United Stales, we should not only be relieved from tbe apprehensions which wo can never cease to feel for our own safety and the security or our commerce, whilst U shall remain lu lu present condi tion, but human foresight cannot anticipate tbe beneficial consequences which would result lo every portion of our Union. This con never become a local question. With suit able fortification at the Tortugas, and In possession of tbe strongly fortified harbor of Havana as a naval afetion on the opposite coart or Cuba, we could command tbe out let of tbe Gulf of Mexico, between tbe peninsula of Florida and that Island. This would afford ample securi ty both to tbe foreign and coasting trade of tbe Western and Southern 8tates, which seek a market for (heir sur plus productions through tbo ports on the gulf. Under the Government or tbe United Statee, Cuba would become the richest and most fertile Island, of tho throughout the world. According to . _ jmmercial Regulations and his Commer cial Statistics, “in 1830, of tbe 468,523 caballeras of thirty- two English acres of land which compose the whole ter- itory, 38^70 were under sugar, coffee, tobacco, gardi nd fruit cultivation, and 0,304 in grazing grounds m in unfelled wotds, belonging to sugar and coffee estates," Itthusanpears thst In 1830 less than one-twelfth of tbe whole Island was under cultivation. The same author estimates, we consider it probable that the only of the whole island was under cultivation In 1842. Tho author proceeds: “If we compare this extent with **- alntng vaat are* of the fertile soil* of Cuba which uncultivated, and the produce which the whole Island at present yields, it can scarcely bo an exaggera tion to «ay that Europe might draw aa much coffee and ..... . _,3U7,624[ from Ihe drta_ which have jurt^been presented, it may s Jut. .. fairly be Inferred that the Island la capable of sustaining In comfort a population of ten millions of Inhabitants. WereCubaar —“"*■*”-**-*“ " difficult to estl portion of the United States, It would be tlmate the amount of breadstuffe, rice, cot ton, and other agricultural os well as manufacturing and mechanical productions; of lumber, of the produce of our fisheries, and of other articles which would find a market In that Island, In exchange for their coffee, sugar, tobacco,and other production!. This would go on In creasing with the Increase of Its population and the de velopment or I Is resources, and all portions of the Union would be benefited by the trade. Desirable, however, at the possession of this island maybe lo the United States, we would not acquire it ex cept by tbe freo will of 8paln. Any scquUltioirnot sanc tioned by iurtlco and honor would bo too dearly pui* chased. While such is the determination of tbe Presi dent, it Is supposed that tbe present relations between Cuba and Spain might Incline the Spanish Government to cede tbe Island to the United States, upon the payment of a fair and toll consideration. We havo received in formation from various sources, both official aud unoffi- Colonization.—The Legislature of Pennsylvania hav ing appropriated two thousand dollars per annum to fa cilitate the emigration of tbe free people of color within the State to tbo Repnblio of Liberia, tbe Bynod of Plus- burg baa 01 joined it upon all the churches under its care to raise a collection for the samo object on or about tbe fourth of July. Personal.—Tbe Prince of Nassau, brother lo tlie reign ing Duke, and the Prince of Wyede, (Germany,) are In New-York, as sro also Bcnor J. J. de Osma, Envoy Ex traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from Peru, with bis family and suite. large amount of gold dust, but the total deposits for the year will hardly reach the amount deposited daring the year 1851. In that year the deposits of gold for Novem ber and December were 9ll»762yi60, of which 9109,121 were foreign gold. This amount will hardly be reached for the corresponding mouths of the current year. Tbe deposits of foreign gold, (chiefly coin,) for the first ten months of the current year, at all the mints, have in creased, as compared with tbe same period of 1831, $333,- 681. In domestic gold Ibe deposits of California gold bare (alien off 980,500, but the amount from other States has Increased 9112,472. Arotiirr Steamer for tub South.—A ‘ tbo Jsmetttwn, Is now in process of building at New-York. She It to bo about 1,300 tons, and to run In connection with tbe —~* * - between New-York and Norfolk. 1 Roanoke, Death or Bdroeor Cowdrey.—Dr. Jonathan Cow- »MT, the oldest Burgeon In the Unltsd States Navy, died , »t Portsmouth on Saturday week, of apoplexy. Thieve* in London.—The “swell mob” of London do perpetrate robberies with the most singular ingenuity aad address, and appear never to be at fault. A lady alighted at the bank, ascended tbe steps and entered tbe vestibule, and presenting a check to the paying teller, received a very large amount or bank notes, which she deposited In her purse and returned to tbe carriage. Just aa she had token ber seat, a gentleman came down the steps of the bank without his bat, wearing spectacles, and having a pen behind his ear, said: “Madam, we bare forgotton to take the number of those noteat will you allow me to lake them off.” She banded him the notes; and he ascended the steps or tho bank and entered tbe building. Tbe lady having waited some time, finally returned to the bank, and toon ascertained that no per son had been authorized to ask for the notes. New Election Ordered roa Members or Con- oress,—The Governor and Council of Massachusetts have ordered new elections for Congress in the ntne va cant districts, on tbe second Monday of December next. At that election a plurality only is neoeesary to a choice. At the last election tbe whig* bad a plurality In every district bnt tho ninth, when) tho freosoll candidate had tbe highest number of votes. Of what vast Importance would It, then.

From all that wo have learoed.lt la be lieved tholthe Crown of Spain has already granted by Cur the greater portion of the whole territory 01 toe Island (0 Individuals. We noed not, therefore, calculate upon deriving much revenuo from this source. I The apprehensions which oxisted for many years after the origin of this Government, that the extension of our federal system would endanger tho Union, seem lo have passed away. Experience has proved that thts system ' rated republics, under which tbo Federal Gov- if confederal r , , aroment haschargoof interests common to thewholo, whilst local governments watch over the concerns of tho respective States, Is capable of almost indefinite exten don, with Increasing strength. This, however, li always mhject to Ihe qualification that tho mass of the popula tes must be or our own race, or must havo boeu oduca Vd In tbs school of civil and religious liberty. With 'his qualification, the more we Increaso the number of lonfeuerated States, tbe greater will be tho strength and lecurity of the Union, because the moro dependant for heir mutual Interests will the several part* be upon tho vhole, aud tho whole upon tbe sovoral ports. It Is true hat of the 418,201 white Inhabitants which Cuba con- klnedin 1851,avr—‘ ... ... , . rery large proportion Is of the Spanish nee; still, many of.onr citizens have settled on the tland, and some of them are large holders of property. Tnder our Government it would speedily bo Jlwterican• itd, as Louisiana has been. Witnin the boundaries of sich a federal system alone can a Irudo exempt from dulcs apd absolutely free be enjoyed. With the pos sesion of Cuba we should have throughout the Union a fca trade on a more extendod scale than any which the world tuu ever witnessed, arousing an energy and sell- vty of competition which would result In a most rapid Inprovement In all that contributes to the welfere and lnpptness of the human race. What State would forego Uo advantages of thia vast free trade with all her listers, aul place herself In lonely Isolation? But tho acqulsl- tbn of Cuba would streugthen our bond of uulon. Its ptssesalon would secure to all the State* within tho valley ol the Mississippi and Gulf of Mexico free access to tho oaan; but this security could only bo preserved while thi ship-building and navigating Stales or tho Atlantic stall furnish a navy sufficient to keep open the outlets ... Cuba, Justly appreciating tht advantages of annexation, Is now ready to ruth iulo oui arms. Once admitted, she would * 4 *“*“ J - bo entirely de- peidant for her prosperity, and even existence, upon her coinectlon with the Union, while the rapidly increasing irale between her and the other States would shed its bluings and Its benefits over tbe whole. 8itch a state ofmutual dependence, resulting from the very nature o ‘ thngs, the world has never witnessed. This Is what will enure the perpetuity of our Union. With all there considerations In view, the Preslden, brileves that tho crisis has arrived when an effort shouh 1 Id mado to purchase tbe Island of Cuba from Spain, and le bas determined lo entrust you with the performance *f this most delicate and most Important duty. The at tempt should bo made, in the first instance, in a confi dential conversation with tbe Spanish Minister for For eign Affairs: a written offer might produco an absolute refusal In writing, which would embarrass us horeaftcr In tbe acquisition of tho Island. Besides from the Inces sant changes In tbo Spanish cabinet and policy, our de sire to make Ibe purchase might thus be mado knor~ *- r „ JWnln an official form to Foreign Goveromeuts, and arouse their Jealousy and active opposition. Indeed, even if resent Cal and ini ration in Cuba; but by comparing the value of ex- . r •• id byvai land* u ctal, that among tbe Creoles of Cuba there baa long ex isted a deep-rooted hostility to Spanish dominion. The revolutions which are rapidly succeeding each other *— ,ired the Cabana with throughout the world, have inspired an ardent and Irrepressible desire to achieve their inde^ pendence. Indeed, wa are Informed by tho Consul of the United Stales at the Havana, “that there appears every probability that the island will soon bo In a state of civil war.” He also states that “ efforts are now being * ...

Total, $46,049,580. The deposits of gold at the several mints during tbe same time amounted to $43^)06,865, of which $43,146^09 was from California.

Very far from It. A short time after we received this Information from oar Consul, I addressed a dispatch to blm, of which I transmit you a copy, dated on the instant, from which you will perceive that 1 hare warned him to keep a watchful guard both upon his words and actions, so as to avoid even tho least suspicion that be had encour aged the Cubans to rise lu insurrection against the Span ish Government. 1 stated also that the relations between Spain and tho United States had long been of tho most friendly character, and that both honor and duty required that we should take no part In toe strugglo which he seemed to think was impending. 1 Informed him that it would certainly become tbe duty of this Government to use all proper means to prevent any of our volunteer regiments now In Mexico from violating the neutrality of the country by joining In the proposed civil war or the Cubans against Spain. Since ihe date of my dispatch to him, this duty has been performed. The Secretary of War, by command of the President, on tbe day follow ing (June 10.) addressed sn order to General In Me. 4 . .. ... ~ . our commanding General in Mexico, and also to the officer having charge of the embarkation or our troops at Vera Cruz, (of which 1 transmit you a copy,) directing each of them to use all proper measures to counteract any such plan, if one should be on foot, and Instructing them “To give orders sny place In Cuba.” Tbe ConsuLIn hisdlspatch to me, also stated, that If the revolution la attempted nnd succeeds, immediate application would be made to tbe United States for annexation; but he did not seem to think that It would be successful, and probably would not be undertaken without the aid or American troops. To this portion of the dispatch I replied—knowing toe ardent desire of toe Cubans to be annexed to our Union —that I thought Hwonld not be “ difficult to predict tost an unsuccessful rising would delay, if it should not de feat, toe annexation of the Island to the United Btatee and I assured him that the aid of our volunteer troops could not be obtained. Thus you will perceive with what scrupulous fidelity we have performed the duties of neutreliiy and friend ship towards Spain. It is our anxious bops that a rising may not be attempted in Cubs: but If this should unfor tunately occur, toe Government of tbo United Statee will have performed their whole duty towards a friendly Power. Should the Government of Bpaln feel disposed to part with tbo Island of Cubs, tbe question. What should we offer for It? would then arise. In deciding this question It will be important to ascertain, 1st. What net revenue it yields at tire present moment to tbe royal treasury, af ter deducting all tbe expenditure incurrou on its account 7 and 2d. Wbat net revenue would It yield to the Govern ment of tbe United Statee in IU present condition? 1 Tbe find Inquiry I have no means of answering with accuracy. McCulloch, In hla QaitUetr, stales “that QaitUetr, statee “thatthe wYole revenues or tho island, at an average of tha fire years ending with 1637, amounted to $8J45J81 per year,” and it Is staled In Hunt's Merchants' Magattnt for Oc tober, 1845, that tbe revenue for the year IB44 amounted to $10,400^52 87*. Since 1844, we have no Information on tho subject lu toe Department upon whleh reliance can be placed. Mr. Calderon Informs me that tbe Bpen- ish Treasury at Madrid bas never received from Cuba, in any one year, a sum exceeding $2JD0Q^00, In answer to an inquiry bow toe remainder of the revenue was ex pended, he stated that It was appropriated to defray tbe expenses of lu Colonial Government, and to pay and sup port toe troop#, and maintain the vessels of W»r, neces sary for its defenco and oecurity* ft will occur to you that If Spain should oede Cuba to tbe United States, she would at once relieve herself from a great part, If uot the whole, of Utls clvlJ, military, and « opposltlc the present Cabinet should think fevorably of the propo sition; thoy might bo greatly embarrassed by having it placed on record; for In that event It would almost cer tainly, through some channel, reach the opposition and become the subject of discussion in the Cories. Such delicate negotiations, at least in their incipient stages, ought always lo be conducted in confidential conversa tion, tod with tbe utmost sccresy and dispatch. At yjur Interview with the Minister of Foreign Affelra you rnghl introduce the subject by refering to toe pres ent dlrt-*cted condition of Cuba, and the danger which exists Uet the population will mako an attempt to ao- cnmplls^ a revolution. This must be well known to toe Spanish Government. Iu order to convince him of the good fell) and friendship towards Spain with whleh this Governnent bos acted, you might retd to him the first port of my dispatch to General Campbell, and the ordtfr issued by the Secretary of War to the Commanding General In Mexico, and to the officer having charge of the etnbsrkotion or our troops at Vera Cruz. You may then touch gently upon too danger that Spain may lose Cuba by a revolution in the Island, or that it may bo wrested from bet by Great Britain, should a rupture take place between toe two countries arising out of the dismissal of «lr Henry Bulwer, and be returned to pay tho Spanish debt duo to toe British bondholders. You mlghttisure him that, white this Government Is entirely stfsSed that Cuba shall remain under the dominion of Ipaln, we should In any event nnlsltiaacqutsttlonby i ither nation.
