IpNG fe CO.. At tbo present moment tho following sta tistics of the Island of Cuba and the view of the character of its population, &c. are of deep interest, considering that they are evi dently from the pen of the enlightened Edi tor of the Evening Post, (Mr.Bryant,) who visited the Island a year or two ago, and had overy opportunity of acquiring the infor mation which he now opportunely lays be fore the Public :—Nat. In. From the New York Evening Post of Monday, Castile on St. Dominoo.—At a meeting of thefripnds of Cuba in this city, a resolu tion was passed to raise a company of men lo serve in the enterprise of revolutionizing Cuba. As the present state oftlio insurrec tion in that island cannot be very clearly mnde out from the contradictory reports which arrive from Havannn, and ns it is very certain that, if the struggle should be pro tracted, Cuba is destined to be the gra<'e of many Americans, it is will perhaps to take more comprehensive views of the subject than have yet oppenred in any of our jour nals. The'Colonial Government of Spain is oi of the worst forms of government in the world.' It allows the people no share in the adminis tration of affairs, even by the expression of opinion ; there is no freedom of speech, of the press, or of occupation ; the despotism of Russia is not more severe or more hateful. On a population of little more that a million, including the slaves, it levies annually, by an arbitrary system of taxation, and every sort of vexations excuse, a tribute of twenty-four millions of dollars. With a part of this sum the Spanish Government supports twenty thousand soldiers to keep the inhabitants in subjection, and tho entire Spanish marine which has its principal stations in the ports of Cuba. No trado or business can be pur sued without first paying for a license ; no company be entertained or amusement takee in nny residence j no removal be mado from plnce tb place without the same ceremony. The productions of tho plantations are taxed most of them ton per cent, on their value ; tithes are exacted lo tho amount of more than a quarter of a million of dollars, yet the inhabitants are obliged to support their pla ces of worship and cemeteries by subscrip tion. No islander is ever allowed to hold an oflico, civil, judicial, or military ; every place of honor, trust, profit is held by natives of old Spain. The island is allowed no repre sentative in tho Spunish Curios. The Cap tain General of the island is ns absolute ns the Grand Seignors, and establishes any law which his caprice may dictate. Under his rule ihe slave trade, which is now tolerated in no other civilized country—which even Brazil has now suppressed in her dominions —is actively carried on, nnd large cargoes of men and women from Africa are constantly swelling the number of those who are held in slavery. Such is the Government under which the people of Cuba live. Nothing can be more natural titan tlint they should find such in tolerable and desire to sllnko it off,— That this desire is general among the plan ters of the Island, who bear thp principal burdens of the Government, there is no man ner of doubt. There is, howevet, a large class of whites on the island who’enre very little under what form of government they live. These ore the monlcrous or peasantry—tho poor whites who can neither read nor write, who do not understand what political freedom means, and who are content, so long ns they are al lowed a hut thatched with palm leaves in the uncultivated parts of the country, nnd the amusement of cock-fighting on the holy- days. From them no co-operation of nny sort in the insurrection can be expected.— How large a part of the inhabitants they compose we hnvo no statistics to inform us, but nnv one who has travelled in Cuba and seen their habitations scattered in the val leys and on the skirls of tlie plantations would not, we think, hesitate in making them att numerous ns the planters. Their entire nature must be charged before this class can be inspired with any interest in political questions. The planters, on their part, however much they might desire abetter government,t-have all the timidity which belongs to capitalists of every sort, wherever they are to be found. They would be very glad to see their island annexed to the United States, mid lo be rid of tho exactions and oppressions which meet them at every step they take ; but it is not from men with large estates, particularly from a race mnde indolont and fond of ease by a tropical climate, that we are to look for revolutions. Nothing is to be expected from them as a class until the clmnces ap pear to be greatly in favor of their libera tion. There yet emain the inhabitants of the towns, among whom may be doubtless found some friends of revolution who would be willing to make sacrifices and expose them selves to hazards for thesakeof riddingthem- selves of the yoke of Spain, but to the greater part of whom, not unprosperously engaged in commercial pursuits, the satno ob servation will apply ns to the planters. The class of people on whose bravery and activity a tevolt from Cuba should principal ly depend for success are the peasantry ; and tiiese, as we have already shown, a' o beyond, or rather below, the force of any strong mo tives for political discontent. If they were n newspaper reading race, accustomed to de bate public questions like the working peo ple of our country, the chains of Cuba would have been snapped years ago. The conclusion is therefore a necessary one that, unless the independence of Cuba be achieved for her by adventurer* from ihe United States, Bhe will remain a Spanish colony. The foundations ol Cuban liberty must rest on their graves, and its structure be cemented by their blood, Tills view is confirmed by the result of the‘revolt which took place in July at Puerto Principe and its neighborhood. That was hot'a feeblo mov easily andspeedily put down by the Govern ment. We had a thousand rumors of the successes of tho leaders of that insurrection ; of one neighborhood after another declaring in their favor, and soldiers deserting froth the Spanish army to the patriots. At last it ap peared that these were false, that the Gov ernment had been perfectly successful, and that many who had risen' against it were at tempting to purchase a pardon by the most abject expressions of contrition. It does not appear that a single Spanish soldier left the army to take part with the patriots. If, therefore, the expedition of Lopez should bo able to maintain itself on the island as a nucleus lo future expeditions, of which, in that case, many v»!ll no doubt follow, a long and weary struggle, with various turnei of fortuue, will in all probability be the re- SitouId atlengtli 'the SpntiiiMfc^vcrr see but a doubtful chance of retaining the island j. notice has already been given • of the expedient to which it will resort. It has been already announced by that Govern ment that the island must either belong to Castile or become a second St. Domingo.— The slaves will be .emancipated, and nrms will be put into thelr hands to defend their freedom. . V The nature of Ihe contest will then be en tirely changed. It will no longer be a strug gle for tho liberty of Cuba, but a war waged to reduce the blacks to servitude, nnd re claim them to their masters. It will then be a question for the people of a free country —n question for those who are exiled from the despotic countries of Europe for an nt- tompt to break their chains, whether they will continue engaged in such a.war as this. We have yet more to say on this subject, but the paper being about to go to press, we must post pone tho remainder to our next issue. [From the N. O. Picayune. 3d inst.] Letter from Col. Crittenden. The following letter, received in this city from Col. Crittenden, has been handed to the editors ofthe Crescent for publication. We copy it from that paper: Ship op War Esperanza, August l6l/i. Dear Laden In half an hour I, with fifty others, ar to be shot. We were taken prisoners yesterday, Wo were in small boats. Gen. Lopez separated, the balance of the command from me. I had with me about ono hundred—was attacked by two batta lions of infontiy and one company of horse. The odds was too great and strange to tell, I was not furnished with a single musket car tridge. Lopez did pot get and artillery. I From tlio sail), Paper of Tu.onlny Castile on St. DoMtNoo.—We showed yesterday that it Cuba should he wrested from Spain, it would be dono principally by adventurers from thp North, and -alluded to the difficult position in which these adven turers would f|nd themselves if Spain should fulfil her threntof making tho island,' in case it could not remain under the sceptre of Castile,nsecond S(. Domingo, by setting (lit blacks free and palling arms into their bands'. There nre some, further considerations yybich should not be overlooked. As soon ns the « ar diverted-.frqip Its dpi-’ ginnl object oftlirowing off tbeyoko of Spain, and become a struggle, to reduce'the. Clicks to bondage, it Will, of course, draw into the quorrei all the whites of tho isinndMm the one side, and all the blacks on the oj£er,— The montcroi, who hitVo-no-fiking for^flie ne groes, will range themselves on the side of the plnntcrs. The free colored people, of whom.thero nre more than a hundred nnd fif ty thousand on the island, some of whom have nil the intelligence of the whiles, and who have their own wrongs to avenge, will naturally become the leaders of the emanci pated slaves. Of the Haves ninny are natives of Africa, men of herculean proportions and great strength, who remembei Ihe horrors of a passngo across the ocenn in slave-ships, and are ready lo take terrible vengeance on tho white race, ns soon ns the opportunity is giv en them. The civil wars of the Spaniards are always nccompnined by acts oi barbarity, nnd with this infusion of the ferocity of the African savage, the strife in Cuba will be come frightfully bloody and cruel. The plantations will’be rnvnged, the earth will be no longer tilled, the country will become a waste, the commerce of the island will cease. find that I did my duty, nnd have tho po; confidence of every man with me, We’lmd retired from the field nnd were going to sea, and were overtaken by the Spanish steamer Habanero, and'enptured. Tell Gen. Huston that his nephew got separated from me on tho 13th—day of the fight—ond that I hove not seon him since, He may have straggled off and joined Lopez, who advanced rapidly to the interior. My people, however, wero entirely surrounded on every sied. We saw that wo had been deceived grossly nnd were making for the United ‘•’lates when taken.— During my short sojourn in this island I havo not met a single Patriot. We landed some forty or fifty miles to the wostword of this, and' I am sure that in tlmt part of the island Lopez has no friends. When I was attacked, Lopez was only three miles off If ho hnd not beon deceiving us its to the stale of things, be would have fallen back will) his force and mnde fight, instead of which he marched on immediately to the interior.

Yours, strong in heart. VV. L. ClUTTKNftUN. To Dr. Lucien llcnslev. Suppose, howover, that this fearful strug gle should be ended in a year or two by the subjugation of the blacks—a fate which we think would be inevitable—and by their re turn lo servitude. What shall theu be done with Cuba, which, after so terrible an experi ence of the calamities of Spunish rule, the whole civilized woild would agree ought never agaiu to come under the yoke of Spain? An application, we suppose, would be mnde lo annex the island to the United Slates. This would revive in all its heat tho agita tion of the slavery question, and beget a more violent strife than ever between tho North and the South. Then will arise, also, the question whether the reduction of the blacks to servitude shall be recognised by puruwn country ; whether their emancipa tion by the authority of Spain, whileshe hold the island and exercised the legislative au thority, was not an act which no revolution ary Government, organized in the name of liberty, had the power to annul ; nnd wheth er they are hot, therefore, slill entitled to their freedom. These questions will bo de bated with a warmth to which the present state of the quarrel on the slavery question is mere apathy. We do not think it necessary here to con-, sider tho probability of certain other circum stances which might somewhat vary the re sult—n3, for example, whether any of. tho Powers of Europe might not| think proper to interfere, in order to put a stop to atrocit ies of this strife ; or whether Spain might not yield so far to the desires of the people of Cuba as to grant them, a provincial legisla ture, elected by their suffrages. The latter of these, considering the character of the Spanish Government, which is both unen lightened and unyielding, we regard aBrwhol- ly improbable, though it is obvious that it is the only true policy. It is enough for us to have shown that if the connexion between Cuba and the mother country is to he severed by the sword, there are consequences of the gravest nature involved in the event, to which it would be folly to shut our eyes. As lovers of political freedom, we cannot but detest the tyranny in which Cuba is held, and cannot but wish her a happy and' early release. So bad a Government, we suppose, cannot long endure; it certainly deserves not to last a day. But the immense popula tion of slaves held by the white racouiurround any attempt to rid them of thp Spanish yoke by violence with fearful difficulties, .which the planters ofthe islahdytve doubt not, see LAST HOURS OF DR. 0LIN. From the Northern Molhodist Journals, we condense the following particulars whieh will be road with deep interest. Just before thn commencement. Dr, Olio’s youngest child, a beautiful mid promising boy, was bu ried. Both Mr. and Mrs. Olin wero then suffering from Ihe same epidemic. The blow, which, under the most favorable circumstan ces would have been severe, in the groat bodily prostration of ihe Dr., foil upon him with overwhelming force. The final farewell, at the close oflhe funeral exercises will not soon be forgotten by those who were present on Ihe occasion ; the founluins of Ihe great deep were hrokon up, and Iho mighty man was convulsed by his sorrow. A week after this, it was thought advisable, as Ihes'ckness continued in the house, that the oldest, and now only child, little Henry, should bo sent to their friends in Uhinobeck. Now came another painful and prostrating scene., fbo Dr. had became much weaker, nnd a little apprehension in reference to tho result was felt. He felt ns if he were taking his fmnl Icnve of the child. How piophetic was this impression ! It was almost heart-reading to witness the separation. For a week preced ing his death, the Dr. was subjected to a hic cough which greatly exhausted his strength nr.d rendered it almost impossible for him to hold any communication with his friends.— His utterances were indistinct and accompa nied with painful- gnsping. On Tuesday, his dysentery ceased and his symptoms seemed favorable; but soon after a diarrhea set in, which, in his great debility, foreboded the fatal result. From (lie moment of his attack he had little hope of recovering. “Those doctors, said he to Dr. Floy, “profess to have some hope in my case, but my hope is in Christ He was perfectly resigned, nnd manifested the utmost patience under his suffering.— During tho last few days of his life, Bishop Jane-, Dr. Holdicb, and Dr. Floy, were with him, nnd they report from his mouth tho fol lowing sentences, which, few and short as they nic, afford tho most decisive nnd satis factory evidence of his readiness for his great chnnge. When perfectly free from mental wanderings, he said . “I am resting on the old foundation.” “That is safe,” said Bishop Janes. “Yes,” he answered,” “1 shall be saved, though it bo ns by fire.’’ The Bishop asked, “Is your mind clear on that point?” “Yes,” he answered, “entirely,” andwilh energy he repeated,” entirelyclear.” His last Words wero ; “My trust in God, and my reliance on Christ, are implicit.” On Friday evening he could be roused on ly a moment at a time from the deep slum ber which marks the last stage of typhoid fever. He recognized one or two friends who had come from a distance at his own request, and affectionately repeated their names and then sank away again into sleep. It is supposed that he wished to leave some final communication with the gentleman summoned, respecting the affairs of the Uni versity, but it had become impracticable.— The next morning the lethargy ofthe disease became deeper, and,at last he fell asleep in death and in Jesus—-without, apparently any pain. , Dr. Olin was' born March 2,- 1707, and was consequently in his 55lh -year at the time of his death. THE EDITORS IN SOUTH CAROLINA- Whon'wo jook at the secession newspapers in South Carolina, und rend tho inlonsu and buenitig Carolina feeling which some of them contain,-wo. would nalurliv suppose that the editors were Carolinnns by birth—tho des cendants of Kevolutionury ancestors—whose deeds fill many a page in tlio history of our Stale- Yen, more wo should ho inclined to think from their exclustvo Carolina patriot ism, that they had seldom, if ever, been outside oftbc State. Knowing nothing of nny' other portion of their country, and having r.o family ties beyond their Stale, they wore thus wrap ped up in Carolina, and in some measure ex cusable, lor their narrow and selfish patriot ism glorious Republic, surpassing all nations of till earth us much in civil and religious freedom as it does in happiness und unrivalled prosper ity.—NoulA.

Brave and Honest- The bravo the feuiless, dignified, Knight of the Georgia.chivalry—too brave to flinch, yet too dignified .to fight, in view ofthe sage maxim of his illustrious predecessor, Sir John; that “ho who tights and runs away may live to fight another day,” since his oncountor with Mr. Cobh at Marietta, has been peram bulating tho country and making speeches oil his own hook, whore his oppunent cannot answer him, thus degrading his dignity by canvassing fur his election as Governor of Georgia- In CARROLL, on the 29th and 30tli ult., seeing that Cobb was not about, he delivered hiiiiself nf speeches, dignity, or no dignity, nnd claimed himself as a Union man, nlthour;h be would nut obey the calls of the United States Government for forces to ex ecute tho law l—Atlanta Jle/r.

And Governor McDonald, who thinks it degrading to go about making, speeches, Ims fallen so much in lovo with the degrada tion, that ho is spreading, himself making speeches all over the couulry—Not only so; it is seriously believed thnt'in ordtf to liavb tbo genuine article of degradation, they resort to the most degruding praclic of prevaricat ing with regard to their real setiments and opinions, lor the base purpose of deceiving the people into -their support—oh! what a love for degradation.—Atlanta Rep.

It has been our pride nnd pleas ure to sustain Mr. Berrien in times past, and tioiio regretted more than ourselves to see thu aid ofhis powerful mind lent, at least in di rectly, to the cause of a party whose object was tlio overthrow of tho government. Nd one wil^bo moro gratified to find him, after a temperary aberration, again battling in the ranks for. tlie Cunstitution nnd the Union. What! will our-Southern Rights friends have to sny to this ? We commend the fact especially to the notice of the Southern Rights orator at Danbuvg, who in a moment ot enthusiasm, exclaimed, would to God that the South Imd moro such men to stand by her peril, ns John McPherson Berrien.”— [U'ruA.

There is another paper in Columbia, now edited, we think, by a Northern man with Southern principles I Tho Charleston Courier, whieh come out far disunion last fall, Iras always been ow ned in part and edited in 1 ' part, we believe, by one or more Northern men.— There are others which wo disdain to men tion, who have aliens by birth conducting them [ nnd who are for disunion per sc. We object lo no man on account of. bis birth. The gentleman above mentioned and alluded to, we objact lo, on account of their politics, not their foreign or northern birth. We only think it is proper in Nqrthern men nnd foreigners, when they como to South Carolina, to remember wlioro they were born, and not undertake to dictate to. and.de nounce'native South Carolinians because they do not go for secession nnd disunion.— An adopted citizen should be disposed to go with his Stute and not to lead her into a revolution. It is well known that Goneral Quitman is a Northern man, and we have no hositntion in saying a Northern adventurer, His ex treme afxiety to separate the South from the North; the land of his birth from the land of his adoption, is unnatural, and shows either a knavish or a callous heart'. The land which gave a man birth, if ho has within his heart a feeling susceptible of patriotism, must al ways bo dear to him. Hence no Northern man ever elevates himself in our estimation bytsl^ising the North. We at once mistrust his heart or auspect his motives. We haye all the feelings and partialities of a.Southern man, but they do not make us insensible to the merits and importance ot the North. In many respects, in wisdom, enter prise and energy, in most of the convenien ces and comforts of life, the Northern .peo ple are far ahead .of us. The finest looking population we have ev.er seen, North or South was in the city of Bos toil, and whilst we de sire them to quiet, and keep in subjection their fanatics and demagogues, wa do not desire to part with them as countrymen. We still wish to claim Franklin, Hancock, Ad ams, and Warren; as our countrymen.

Keep them boxed up and tell nobody ofhis wishes ? Of cotirse he will be no such fool. He will at once adopt some method.of getting the fact thafirt he lias tho goods and wishes to sell them, known among those who would be likely to buy. How will he do this? He will not go personally; because while he is absent from his store a trade may bo lost-worth the whole profit on the prints lie wishes to sell. He will not send hi» clerk, because his services are worth more at home. . He will not print hands-bills send them round, because not one may fall into the hands of a buyer. None of theso thing will he do if ho is a shrewed business man.
