'1.... 400 THE DAILY CONSTITUTIONALIST. From oar Uvcntng Edition of Yesterday READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE" The Augusta Library.— Our friend .John Millen, the courteous and indefatigable Li brarian of the Augusta Library Association, has just received an extensive invoice of late publications, historical and miscellaneous.— Among the profounder works, we notice an edition of Napoleon’s great work on “Ciesar among the works of fiction, choice selections from Le Fanu, Trollope, Braddon, Wood and others of recent popularity. We trust that our citizens, old and yonng, will’ootue forward lib erally to the support of this important institu tion. The great battle of the South, in future, is to he fought upon the arena of reason. Let our youth cultivate their intellects preparatory to tliat coming day, when the Southern mind shall assume its appropriate place in the litera ture and statesmanship of the common country. The Am.edged Kidnapping op Negroes.— We learn from the New York World , of the 17th, that the President sent a message to the Senate on the 16th, in answer to (he resolution request •. ing him to communicate any information in possession of the Executive in relation to the alleged kidnapping of colored persons in the Southern States, for the purpose of selling them for slaves elsewhere. It appears from the documents transmitted, and from a letter written by General Canhy, that three colored children were abducted from New Orleans and carried to Havana or some other port of Cuba, where it was supposed they were at the time the War Department was in formed of this occurrence. Secretary Seward instructed Mr. Savage, our Consul at Havana, to make inquiries, in order that if the children could be identified proper measures might be adopted witlra view to their return to New Or leans. General Canby says that the status of ( these children at the time of abducting was that of slaves, and their introduction into Cuba was in violation of the laws of Spain. A long cor respondence follows, including a letter from Minister Tassara, dated February 4, 1860, in- i closing ii communication from the Captain j General of Cuba, caused by the alleged kidnap- , ping and carrying to that, island of free negroes i from the Southern States to he held in slavery, ] about which Senator Sumner busted himself in ] the session of t lie Senate on the !>th of .January. 1 The Captain General adds, that what the Senator j said as to Cuba is*not true, and a ease of the j kind cannot be made out against a solitary in- ( dividual. Mr. Hall, Consul at Matanzas, in n I letter dated February 17, 1866, Informs the State Department that nftor diligent investiga tion, and having heard the opinions of persons : likely to lie informed, he has not been able to 1 learn that there is any truth in the unofficial in formation as given to the War Department in regal'd to the kidnapping of negroes. Sulwe- i quently the girl was brought to Matanzas and sold. A statement was made to the authorities, from which it is seen that the girl had been de cided to be free, in fact and by right, and placed at the disposition of the consulate. The Gov -1 I ernor of Maiaiizas permits this girl to retuaiu in the care of a private family until an oppor tunity shall offer for her return to her native land. J William T. .Minor, United States Consul at i Havan i, wi ites to the State Department, that upon the receipt of the first dispatch lie insti- ‘ tuted inquiries, and up to February 19, 1866, lie had no; been able to find anything to warrant '• the belief t hat colored persons had been brought 1 to Havana from the Southern coast of the , United States, or vessels, large or small, laden ; with cotton or other products, and lett on the island. He says he has no doubt that refugees J from New Orleans brought there some of their i slaves during the past year. Sevan of these had i been reclaimed through the Consulate. • •**. £ iShifcliii -The re j ligious eomTtritfity -of Peril) has neefi.strangely* agitated of late by a new preacher railed Father i Hyarinthe. The ablest speakers of me two i Chambers, the most celebrated judges, the most renowned writers, crowded to listen to his eloquence. Father Hyacinthe, according to a writer in the London Times , is a member of the order of hare-footed Carmelites, the reformed branch of the original Carmelites, named from Mount Carmel, and who claim their descent from Elijah. He is remarkable for his liberal opinion in political, ami his tolerance in reli gious matters. In his recent sermons at Notre Dante, Father Hyacintlic confined himself mainly to the task of combating the delusion that morality can take the place of religion, or exist independent of it. A devout adherent of the Pope, as head of the Church, he drew a marked distinction between his temporal and his spiritual authority. For a perfect liberty of conscience lie contended eloquently. He stig matised persecution for conscience sake us an odious crime. If it has sometimes been allotted to the sword to defend justice and weakness, and uphold religions faith against assault, from heathen powers, it can not he its part to inspire in people the faith which they reject,. “The wise man,” he said, “should proportion the means to the end; and this end is faith, con viction, and the free adhesion of the mind and the heart. Do you desire and do you believe that the sword can obtain such an object V It is madness, but it is also a crime; because if there be, next to the majesty of God, a majesty which is inviolable, it is the majesty of man’s conscience.” The Gold of the Richmond Banks.—The Lynchburg News, referring to the hitch in the proceedings at Washington, for the resto ration of the .SIOO,OOO in gold, belonging to the old banks in Richmond, says: “We learn from a source in every way reliable that, after thoaough investigation of the whole mat ter, the authorities came to the conclusion that the money actually belonged to the banks of Richmond, and that an order for its delivery to the officers of the banks was made out, receiv ed the signature of the President, and was sent to the Treasury Deportment, who were about to turn over the amount to the agent of the banks, when a communication was sent to the President by some individual (name unknown) who pledged himself, if three days were allow ed him, to establish beyond controversy the fact that the specie in question did not beloug to the banks, but to the Confederate Government, and the claims set up by the bank were fraudu lent, and intended to deceive the Government into surrendering to them n large amount of coin to which they had not the shndow of a ti tle. Under these circumstances the order was countermanded, and the specie directed to be held by the Treasury, awaiting the results of the promised developments.” Rents Falt.jjig. —The Charleston Courier says the rapid decline of rents in several of the large cities is announced. In New York, Phila delphia, Baltimore, Richmond, and cities further South, a decided improvement in the matter of rent has been realized. Under the pressure of the exorbitant rents demanded a few months since, merchants faltered in their business pur suits, and many of them were compelled to close up their concerns altogether. Avaricious landlords chuckled at. the prospect of receiving fabulous rents for old, rickety buildings, and even went so far as to notify tenants to be pre pared to pay further advances at the close of the year. The public, however, resolutely set their faces against such outrageous exactions, and, as a consequence, rents have met with a great fall. Many buildings which' could have been rented for reasonable sums at the first of the year have been, on account of the high rates, left unoccupied, and arc now vainly seek ing tenants at comparatively moderate prices. A correspondent of the Wilmington Dispatch gives an account of a street encounter, at Lum berton, last week, between the Rev. James Sin clair and Colonel Wra. L. McKay, of Fayette ville. The “fighting” parson was aroused at some action of the late Fayetteville Presbytery concerning him not agreeable to his pride, which was published in Col. McKay’s paper, the Pres byterian. He attacked the Colonel with a cane and pistol. The latter disarmed him, and —the parson caught a tartar. Ex-Governor Swain, of North Carolina, baa gone to Washington on a visit connected with his researches in the history of his State. He hopes to recover Gen. Tryon’s letter book, stolen from the Executive office during the last days of the war. 2xi-U)ccl»lti Constitutionalist. BY STOCKTON & CO Ipjw « The Ootton Supply from India—Failing Resources. a, i meet in"- of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, January 29, theeonsideratum ofthe prospects of cotton supplies ‘ discussed. Complaints were made of the apathy of the Government respecting India, and the opinion prevailed that all that was necessary to obtain a large supply was to develop!thei canal and railroad communications in l , hat *:® unlrj - Mr Bagiev Member of Parliament, said. ' SinctTthe'termination of the war with Ameri m thev had acquired something of the lorme degree of activity that once pervaded. the manu faXing districts. Still nmch reAMned to be done. In 1860 the consumption < 1 “ the United Kingdom amounted to 2,900, TOO tegs during the year, at the period of the greatest distress- -namely, 1862-the consumption had diminished to 1,000,000 tegs ; and last year, it had none UD to 2,000,000. , But during this period there had been very important additions made to the meapai of con suming cotton, not only by the 'cd'leUr m ination of spinners to repair their old ma chinery and prepare fora better time, but by the spirit of capitalists who had invested new capital in new works, the result being that there was at the present moment the power to consume much larger quantities of cotton thau had been known at any other period, and he apprehended not less than 3,000,T00 hags wonld be required to supply the trade of Ihe whole kingdom, when cotton could be had in plenty, and at the same time at such cheap prices as ruled previous to the convulsion of 18TO. It had bean* stated that the exports to America with the revived trade had been so large that our public finances were likely to be seriously inconvenienced. He differed altogether from such an estimate. It was quite true we had sent, something like £20,0(H),000 value of British exports to the United States, but ill estimating the means of payment by America, it seemed to be entirely forgotten that America during the last year sent such ample supplies of cotton that the value of them would be little short of £25,000,00. But although this was sufficient reason why we need apprehend no danger from our trade with America, there might be some reason why we should look seriously at investments at home. There had been continually created new joint stock companies, we had been continually con tributing to foreign loans, and he estimated fairly that the home engagements of the coun try last year amounted to little less than £200,- 000,000. He put it to the Chamber whether we were likely to be in danger from speculative investments of that kind, or from a legitimate trade of £20,000,000 with our friends across the Atlantic. • There had been no very important improve ment in the cotton received from India. Larger supplies, it was true, had been received during tlic years when cotton had been so much re quired, but it must be recollected that a part of those supplies was cotton that had been cruelly taken from the Indian home manufacturers, and that we had not secured so large a portion of India’s augmented production as we should have received. It was grievous to hear that in some instances the home manufacturers of {ndia had not been supplied with tficir raw ma terial in consequence of the exportations to this country. He fell considerable anxiety as to the supplies of cotton from India. In 1860 there were here consumed about 8,800 hags of Indian cotton per week. Last year the consumption was to the extent of 20,000 bags per week, but the quality of the cotton was so inferior that the moment abun dant supplies from America could be obtained Indian cotton would cease to be consumed, and India, which already depended upon a great supply of cotton being sent to this country at high prices, would lie greatly disappointed when they found that the supplies and the prices were diminished. The time, he feared, was coming when distress would be brought upon India because it would lie more to the interest of the people of this country to obtain cotton from America than India. One hundred million pounds already paid was ample com pensation for what we laid received, and we had no occasion to trouble ourselves with conse quences its to wlfat might accrue to India, nl tliough.it would be much i.i be deplored it In dia did not keep up in the race of competition. Unless something could be don? in the wav of administrative reform in India, there could be no improvement in tlie cultivation of cotton. Something must be done to emancipate the agricultural industry of India from the thral dom of the officials. India possessed ample means for repealing her custom duties. The whole revenue of India is about £45,000,T00 gross; the net amount was perhaps from £85,000,000 to £36,000,000. The expenses ot collection amounted to £8,000,000, and tie sub mitted that this sum, deducted from the gross revenue, was a sum altogether unnecessary, and it would be possible to save as much even as £2,000,000 out of the expenses of collection. At all events, the manufacture of cotton yarns con tributed to the revenue of India about £600,000; .that could be. easily abolished; and as the cot has given liulfei something like £IOO,- 000,000,'abenefit would arise to Jqdto if cotton If was to be hoped, therefore, anofi'ort would, he maW to rcfScal 'the duties upon cotton manufacturers. If there was a large trade rapid ly rising in India, where spinning and manu facturing were being conducted, a protection would arise to those manufactures if something did not alter the present condition of things. The whole official revenue of India required to be fully examined'and economized. Only £29,- 000,000 was required for the real expenditure of the country, and to collect £45,000,000 appear ed to leave a margin that, gave great scope for financial reforms. Reproductive work's of any kind, which would greatly Contribute to the .revenue of India, had made but little progress. True £50,000,000 had been expended in about 8,000 miles of railway in India ; but in America there were 80,000 miles. Water for inland navigation and irrigation was, no doubt, the great wealth of India. Great investments ought to lie made in the means of conveying heavy goods from the interior to the ports ; and water applied to the land, it was well known, increased the pro duction four-fold. Whatever irrigation was ap plied the quality of the cotton was vastly in creased—of course, to the corresponding ad vantage of the agriculturist. The land tenure question was also of the highest importance to- India. Another Falsehood Nailed.— We find the following communication in the Charleston News, nailing another falsehood: Mills House, Charleston, 8. C., > March 19,1800. \ To the Editors of the Charleston Daily News : Gentlemen: In your issue of to-day you publish an article purporting to comC from the Washington Chronicle , stating that the Assistant Commissioner of Freeamen for the State of South Carolina informs Gen. Howard that the people in that State are very jubilant over the veto, and are becoming more bitter and outspoken every day ; and many Northern capi talists are returning home in despair* or are awaiting something definite as to the policy to be pursued : and the Assistant Commissioner expresses the hope that a new Freedman’s Bu reau bill will puss, as he can see no hope for the freedman for some years to come, save under the eye of the Bureau; and can see no hope for South Carolina but by filling it up w r ith North ern men. and thus vanquishing the enemies of the Government at the polls’. At present, in some of the northern districts of the State, a Northern man’s life is not safe; his houses are burned, and he is kept in continual fear by re gularly organized bands of ruffians calling themselves Southern Regulators. I am authorized by Major General R. K. Scott to say tint he never made any such communi cation to Gen. Howard or any one else. Please correct, by publishing this note, and oblige your obedient servant, J. H. Wiggin. We are gratified nt the above statement, fifn. Scott has made many warm friends since he has been here by his fair and straightforward course, and we should have disliked to have believed that he made any such representations. [Ed. Neivs. [From the Leesburg (Va.) Mirror. A Hypocrite. Served Him Right.— Chaplain James J. Ferree, who had been serving as agent for the Freedmen’s Bureau in Loudoun county for some months past, was last week ejected from his position for malfeasance in office. Chaplain Ferree is a minister of the Gospel (!)—made long prayers in the open air—probably thank ing God that these ungodly rebels were not like unto him; (if so they render a hearty amen.) Chaplain Ferree was paid by the Gov ernment of the United States—the same as its other officers—to look after the interests of the freedmen; but as his mission was solely in the interests of humanity, we understand that where “ Cuffee ” had business with him he was invariably charged a “ small fee to keep up the office.” Philanthropic Chaplain Ferree. A week br two ngo an order was sent from Washington to Chaplain Ferree to be delivered to Thomas W. Edwnrds, Esq., restoring him his property, which had been libelled for con fiscation. lUre was a fat “ reb,” and a good chance for a perquisite; so when Mr. E. called for his papers, he was reminded of this “ small fee for keeping up the office,” and as the weather was cold, and Chaplain Ferree had to be kept warm, a load of wood was fixed upon as the. contribution. Mr. E. demurred—had no wood to sell. Chaplain Ferree was fond of buggy riding—who is not when it can be done at other people’s expense—and was owing a small livery bill of $5 60, which Mr. Edwards could pay. Thinking by this time that he be gan to smell a very btg “mice” under the par son’s cloak, Mr. E. again demurred. Pre sumed if the charge was fixed by law it was a specific one, and that he had better pay the money, take a receipt, and let the Chaplain pay his own livery, which was agreed upon. Alas ! Chaplain Ferree. The receipt was forwarded to General Howard, witli an explanatory letter, and here’s what came of it: Bureau R., F. & A. L., 1 . v Hdqiis.

The Sagua newspaper, of (lie sth inst., pub lishes the following regarding the late outbreak at Villa Clara, which I translate literally : Our meritorious guard has jp.;t rendered an important service. It appears that a hand of highwaymen, consisting of some fourteen or sixteen fool hardy individuals, armed with cut lasses, knives and muskets, attempted a rising at Villa Clara, or some point in that district.— Their intention apparently was to get up a sort of marauding expedition, and their suspicious proceedings created considerable alarm in that peaceful section of the island. They first made their appearance in the Calabazal district; but information of their arrival having been re ceived by Don Jose Hernandez Galvez, com manMing the civil guard in that district, he im mediately started in search of them 4vith a por tion of his force, and, supported by the lieu tenant commanding at Cienfuentes, he came across them at a point called Taguayabon, in the district of San Juan de los Remedios. Some shots were exchanged, and, finally, the civil forces succeeded in capturing twelve of the in surgents, among whom were Don Ventura, Rosell, Andres Lopez, Maximo Guerra, Anto nio Rodriguez and Augustin Milian. They were taken to Remedios and duly delivered to the custody of the civil authorities to await trial. The parties implicated are stated to belong to the respectable class of society. Villa Clara, where the demonstration took its rise, is a town of considerable importance oq the north' side of Cuba, distant about sixty leagues from Havana. Its situation is favorable for a revolutionary movement, as the eastern portion of the island is the most mountainous and the most disaffect ed, being inhabited by a manly class of count r mcD, termed ifreujiros. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. [From the Premia of March 7. The report which we copied yesterday from the Sag tui, regarding the capture of a numb, r of individuals suspected of being about to :: i up a marauding expedition, turns out to have been greatly exaggerated. The. truth of the matter, as we have learned from sources worthy ot eredit, is as follows: Some dozen or more individuals were drinking together in a tavern i/xulega,) when one of them, being excited l.\ his potations, expressed himself in violent terms against the Government, and a lieutenant from Taguayabon, who was present, rebuked the inan, and fearing that the dispute might end in violence the civil guard were notified, who, meeting two of the parly coming out of the tavern, arrested them for carrying arms without authorization, and after inquiring the names of the others they arrested them also and hand, d them over to the officers of justice at Sasi Juan de 10s Remedios. Upon investigation it appeal , that the man whom the lieutenant had reprov. d is addicted to drunkenness and in the habit i,f talking wild when under I lie influence ol liqm r, and that the others belong to the respectable class of society, having never offended again t the laws. THE CARGO OF AFRICANS. The Spanish war steamer Neptune arrived, here this morning (as 1 stated in my letter foi warded by the More Castle,) having in tow a coasting schooner with a considerabls number of Africans on board, it is reported that the blacks were transferred from a brig which land seven hundred of them at San Antonio. The I owner not appearing they were purchased hv I Seuor Marty at the rate of fifteen ounces (#22'.) each. The total number of Africans taken by the Neptune is estimated at nearly one thousand five hundred souls. The British steamer Bolivian appeared off t im port the evening before last, from NewOrlean , and the Captain not understanding the signal-, from the Moro fortress “not to enter at night, ” was fired at with'blank cartridge and had to wait til! next morning. SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH TO THE UNITED STATE** AND MEXICO. Late paju-i R from the United States sav that an American company liaa obtained from the State of Florida the right to land and extend telegraphic cables from the shores of that Stall to tiie Island of Cuba and the Bahamas Tlii company is probably not aware that by t royal decree, dated Madrid, .Time :10, JH6S, tin* exclu sive right to land telegraphic cables on the eon a of Cuba was conceded to a Spank li company. organized under, the Marquis Mari mao, Count San Esteban, Don Arturo de Marcoartu, and oilier distinguished capitalists, for the purpose of connecting the “ever faithful island” with Mexico and the United States. FREE SCHOOLS IN CUBA. of the 21st ult., has a long leader in reference to public education in this” island, eulogizing the Government for, aud congratu lating tiie country upon, the solicitude bestow ed upon this branch of tiie public.service. It sav,. that- although the amount, devoted by Govern ment to gratuitous education in this island wai <»nt|pl»i24,ono in JSsjL.nu> law».*iwn-?tßtWlfn WWMffinwed m TTW TH*irst'Tffl’r»ki hi (‘ntih, ftiu that, considering the population, this is a very large amount. The Sir/h, in an article of y. terday, ridicules this estimate and compare. Cuba with the city of New York alouc. The contrast will open the eyes of many besides those of the editor of the Prens'a. TTIE SEGAR TRADE. An exposure was made some time ago by the European press, denouncing the ingeniou frauds committed in Germany and elsewhere, to the great injury of the genuine article, both in spurious manufactures and in the exporta tion of segars for reimportation. A number of our manufacturers lately held n meeting to devise the best means to put a stop to the practice. One of the remedies proposed was to establish a newspaper, exclusively in de fense of their interests. The idea of having a newspaper is not a now one, as the Honradcz Cigarette Manufactory has had one for some time, under the direction ol the proprietor him self. THE ARGUELLES CASE. Your readers may recollect that against the sentence passed on Arguelles last year lie made an appeal to the Supreme Court of Spain, which is still pending. It is said that he forward' d “certain documents” home with a view to im plicate others and to vindicate himself in that business to which he owes his disgrace* but what is certain is that he is still an inmate of the Havana “Tombs,” or VarcelPitblica. He seems to be badly provided for, in a pecuniary vie w„ ns he sent the other day to get sopie money from a “friend.” LOCAL NEWS. The Captain General has given permission fi-i a joint stock company to build a new theatre on one of the empty lots between the city walls of the. Puerto de Colon and Puerto de Tierru, mid which is to be under his immmediate pa tronage. The edifice will consist of four sto ries—the first for shops, the second for a Cuban Athenaeum, tiie third for a theatre and the fourth for a hotel. The capital of the company has not yet been named, but is to be made up by shares of six ounces ($102). It is reported that Senor Teodoro Guerrero, a member of the Council of Administration,and a man of whom the Captain General entertain - a very high opinion, will shortly be appointed to the office of Political Secretary of this Gov ernment. A literary gentleman, who is engaged in writing a book on some events in the war, in which Mosby was concerned, has recently had some correspondence with that noted person age, and a short time ngo inquired of him if ii would be safe for “a Black Republican—one dyed in the wool ” —so he described himself—to make at the present time a horseback journev through Virginia. In reply that famous rough rider writes the gentleman as follows: if you have any desire to visit the historic scenes of Virginia, I hope you will not be dr terred by any apprelieusions for your personal safety. You will be just as safe from molesta tion here as in the streets of Boston. Should you determine to ' visit Northern Virginia I would be glad to see you at my home ; and I can at least promise that you will not find me the monstrum hm-rendum of the Northern imagi nation. By-the-bye, one of the regiments I most frequently encountered was from about Boston —the 2d Massachusetts, Col. Lowell. 1 once met a detachment of it under command of a Major Forhes, of Boston; and, although onv encounter resulted in his overthrow, lie bore himself with conspicuous gallantry, and I saw him wound one of my best men with his sabre. I also had an interview with a Captain Barton, of Massachusetts, who served on General Eu stace’s staff, and interested myself to procure his exchange. * * * In the event of your visiting Virginia I shall be most happy to ex tend to you any facility in my power for seeino places of interest, &c. There is one spot where our Northern friends seem to be getting enough of the negroes. They are said to be as thick as blackberries, black birds, blackheart cherries, whortleberries or any other dark objects, around Old Point Com fort, Camp Hamilton, Hampton and the whole adjacent country literally swarm with them Frpm Fortress Monroe to Yorktown the whole country is a camp ground for the sons of Ham Looking to the fact, perhaps, that the pleasures of Old Point as a bathing place ot fashionable resort, may be much diminished during the coming summer, by the presence and participa tion of Cuffee in the enjoyments of the season the officers, soldiers, and attaches of that locali ty are said to be getting tired of Cuffee. They have uo idea of swimming and wallowing in the water of the same bath-houso witli the gentlemen from Africa. Though water, and especially sea water, is a highly purifying ele ment, yet it would seem a* if it was thought there will not be enough in Hampton Roads and Chesapeake Ray for both whites and blacks when the bathing season commences. This enormous accumulation of negroes on the Peninsula is easily explained. Bounded on each side by the James and York, two rivers abounding in fish and oysters, the Peninsula is a garden spot for Cuflfee, because he can live without labor, on the natural products of salt water. The country, moreover, abounds in rac coons and opossums, “ varments ” that have a wonderful attraction for the negro. The scheme of colonization in Florida, which the officers at the Point are said to have under consideration for the negroes about that place, is not likely to be palatable to Cuffee, unless the fish, oysters ’coons and ’possums could accompany him. ’ VVe expect our military friends at Old Point will yet wish Cuffee in a better region than Florida, before they have seen the last of him.
