It is scarcely a month since Commonfort, re puted the ablest and most intelligent of the wretched partisan leaders in that unhappy coun try, was formally installed Dictator, and now affairs arc in a- state of entire demoralization and anarchy—the people without a government —no right or property interest whether nativo or foreign under any responsible gnardianship, and a miserable triangular fight going on in the capital for the supremacy of ono of three fac tions, neither of which can promise to hold it a month. A Mexican correspondent of the Picayune, writing from the scene of this wretch ed civil strife and disorder, says : Beally the United States must do something for or with Mexico. The United States has Macon & Western Kail Road. We arc in receipt of the 12th Annual Report of the business operations of this company for the fiscal year which closed the 30th November last. It is a document compiled with great care and elaboration—containing tabular returns o r every item of income and expense compared with that of the preceding year, and exhibiting some remar kable facts growing out of the short crops of 1850 and 1857. A summary statement clipped from the President’s Report exhibits a fair business as fol lows : The gross receipts from all sources amount to $293,260 58 And Expenses 159,633 66 Net Earnings 133,627 02 Add balance as per last Report 64,819 99 “ Amount received on New Stock. 84,060 00 “ Am’t received on Suspense Ac’ts 218 10 $272,725 11 Tlie Superintendent’s Report classifies these earnings and compares them with those of 1856. as follows: Pastengen.

Wo are informed by a | ® f: Ais has vcr ^ htt,e < J uartz ’ and Negro Emaucipatlon i«i the West INDIES.—OPINION OF THE LONDON flMES. We have already published articles from the London Times, which—inasmuch is that organ reflects with wonderful accuracy tbe public sentiment of the British nation—would seem to indicate a decided change in tie opin ion of the English people in relation to the in stitution of domestic slavery. Wo add the following article from the same paper : After tlie lapse of a quarter of a century since the final emancipation of thc negro, we ought to find ourselves in a position to speak irilh some confidence on the several points con nected with that important question. The facts, indeed, ar^ clear enough, but the con elusion is not sa .isfactory, nor the escape very easy to find. The philanthropists can un- doubtly appeal to one great achievement The liberation of the black has been complete, unqualified, and permanent. All the cruelties or miseries which may have accompanied the institution of slavery in our colonies, whether avoidable or otherwise, have absolutely ceased: no British planter any longer possesses human property, nor can it be said than any vestige of the old system is now discernable. What the anti-slavery agitators sought to abolish they have abolished utterly, and the shame and the scandal have disappeared from our territories as entirely as if they had never been known. With this admission, however, ice fear the approval of ou' policy must be terminated On every other point predictions have been falsi fied and expectations disappointed. The negro himself, though he has become free, has out become wise or industrious. Our planters have not found that free blacks make good laborers.— Our colonies have not risen in prosperity and affluence above slaveholding colonies of other States; and, though tbe trade in slaves has decreased upon thc whole, its vitality is so plain and strong, that at this very moment we are making a considerable addition to thc force of our African squadron. Everything, in short, has failed, except emancipation itself. Negroes are free, but they are also brutalised ; the West Indies have been ruined; immense tracts of the most productive soil in the world are lejt uncultivated for the want of labor, and other nations, discerning in our policy a warn ing rather than an example, are pushing the opportunities of slavery to the utmost, and making fortunes over the heads of British col onists. These results arc traceable In the main to the spirit of a legislation directed exclusively to the eradiction of Slavery without regard to any of the functions which slaves had until then discharged. The agriculturists of our tropical colonies were suddenly deprived of the labor by the aid of which their crops were produced, and the controlling authorities in stead of assisting them in replacing the lost element appeared to charge themselves only with the duty of scrutinizing and impeding all efforts in thi3 direction, lest anything resem bling Slavery should be introduced in another form. This was not unnatural, nor perhaps unnecessary; but in the mean time cultivation was suspended and property destroyed, while British consumers repaired to foreign markets for the very commodities which our own coun trymen had been forbidden to produce. The emancipated negro would do no work_ at all. No attempts have succeeded in inspiring him with the wants and yearnings of civilized life, and as his needs are small, his exertions are small also. The climate enables him to dis pense with refinements of shelter or apparel; the soile provides him with sustenance, and vagrancy and indolence leave him at least as much like a beast as ever, though he is no longer a beast of burden. The obligation of labor no longer rests on these members of the race of Ham. The West India squatter can vegetate in absolute idleness without compul sion or enticement to employ his faculties in work. To complete the force of this case it should be remembered that while fertile estates are lying unfilled for want of labor, and European manufacturers are anxiously looking for the cotton which such labor would supply, an in exhaustible store of the agency required is left unemployed and useless in other hands. After what has been asserted on impartial testimony respecting the interior economy of African States, it must, perhaps, be considered im practicable to devise a free labor market on that coast, although the difficulty, be it ob served, is wholly unconnected with the pro posed employment of thc Negro. No person asserts that the actual condition oj the black on his native soil would not be bettered by his re moval to a country where he ivould learn the dig nity and the profit-of labor, and be accessible to the influences of civilization and religion. No person denies that in the present state of our colonies negroes could be put to work there without the least fear of their engagements degenerating into Slavery. AU the embar- rasment arises from the fact that if once blacks were known to be wanted and to be salable on the coast for some sort of price, they would forthwith be kidnapped for consignment by their own chief—-a proceeding which would re vive all the horrors of internal war, and dis sipate the chances of improvement which hon est traffic is beginning to yield. By tranj porting Africans from their own country to thc West Indies we could benefit all parties together —the colonist, the laborer, and die European consumer of tropical produce, but we are afraid to show our desire for such supplies lest man stealing should be commenced anew. If we could but surmount this difficulty, we should be not only restoring thc prosperity of oar own colonies, with advantage even to the blacks themselves, but we should probably be going too far to suppress the Slave-trade as it survives. That free labor can beat slave la bor is undoubtedly true, but unfortunately the free labor is not forthcoming, and slave labor wins in default of opposition. From tho Charlcstbh N-„.

Mr. Charles J. Humbert has written a letter to Mr. J. II. Nolen, of Believille, N. J., sta ting that himself and ten others were attacked by the Mormons, about the middle of October, near Devil’s Gap. Ho says : They took our two wagons and. burnt them to ashes before our eyes, searched aud took from us every thing we had, money, &.C., and tore the clothes off our backs, and then tied us to a tree and kept us tied three days and nights without a bite to eat. You do not know how I suffered. The third day they ave us a pound of bread, and told us that ve days from that time we should be put to death ; and the d n brutes gaveus choice, either to be burnt to death, or be chopped in to pieces by degrees! Here we were tied up to a tree and trembling with fear; not that we feared death, but only the way they bad chosen for us to die. But the night after wo got our bread, it was about twelve o’clock at night, as God would Lave it, the fellow who stood guard ove. us went to sleep, and two of our boys got loose from the tree where wc were tied, and slipped round find untied us all, and oh God, our merciful Parent, we thanked and prayed for our relief! After our escape from our enemies, in two days’ travel wc overtook Col. Johnston’s command, on his way to the Great Salt Lake City. We were stark naked when we entered the camp of Col. Johnston, and hungry. The first man we were taken to was Col. Johnston, and to him we told all our sufferings, and he gave us clothing and plenty to eat. Col. Johnston sent out two companies of dragoons after the Mormons who had us prisoners, and the dra goons killed twenty of the Mormons and took thirty of them prisoners. We ten swore here, in thc name of God, to have revenge, aud we will have it! We all volunteered into Col. Johnston’s command to have revenge and see the American flag wave over the Mormons.— We have been iu service since the 17th of Oc tober—wc volunteered for ten mouths. We have made several marches since we entered the service, and arc now in winter quarters at Mormon fort called Fort Bridger. Our company (Third Dragoons) was at the head of the batteries when wo fought aud drove the Mormons from this old fort. Wo killed about eighty Mormons and took ten prisoners.— There were twelve of our men killed and live wounded.

Wo learn from other sourejw information that these reports are probibl correct. By them it would seem that th were returned, as the vote of the 2lst cf lh cember, G,143 votes “for the constitution slavery,” and 569 votes “for the constitutirn without slavery,” beiug a majority of 5 5-4 votc3 “for the constitution with slavery. ’ 4 Despatches and statements from’lette writers in Kansas have been published, s ta* i:ig that more than one-half of these votes f the constitution with slavery, were framJnW These statements we have not noticed hereto fore, as they seemed to be without authorit- but we leara from a gentleman just from K^l sas, who has been a steady and constant frieni of the Lecompton constitution, that these al legations of fraudulent voting are true, and that-at the three precincts of Oxford, in Jotj. son county, and Kickapoo and Delaware Cros sing, in Leavenworth county, near 3,000 fraud ulent votes were polled, or returned as bavin, been polled, “ for the constitution with slave ry.” It also seems that on the 4th instant, at tie election held under the authority of the Lee- islature of the Territory, that upwards of ht 000 votes were cast “against the constitution.” The legality of this vote as connected with the determination of the pending question relating to that Territory, having been recoe- nized by thc President, through the letter of Gen. Cass to Acting-Governor Denver, and by Gov. Denver iu his address to the people of Kansas, we are authorized to look at that vote with the vote cast on the 21st ultimo npoa the features of the Constitution. A comparison of these votes show that, ad mitting the entire vote cast on the 21st to have been fair, just and legal, there is a majority of about four thousand votes against the con stitution. And, deducting for these alleged facts (of the truth of which we are not fully prepared to speakj there is a majority of near seven thousand against tlie Lecompton consti tution. Anxious as we have been to have this territorial difficulty settled by the people of Kansas themoelves, we are not prepared to say, if the reports above stated shall prove correct, that Kansas ought to be taken into the Union with this constitution, which the people, by a majority of three to one, hove disapproved. In addition to these facts, it seems to be now settled that the “free-State men,” as they are called, have elected all the State officers, and have 13 of the 19 members of the Senate, aud 29 of the 44 members of the House—thus giving them 21 “free State” majority cnjoii; ballot, and securing two United States Sa- 2tors, who will probably be Jim Lane and Charles RobinsoD, while Mr. Parrott has been, by the same election, placed in the House of Representatives of the United States. These statements and probabilities of fe results of the election in Kansas, give an en tirely new aspect to this question, which ks been so noisily discussed iu the political pi pers of the country.
