MORNING SUN THE SLAVE TRADE DECLARATION OF THE CAI' PAIN OF THE ECHO, OF HAMM:I:GIL " For the first time since my return from Serra Leore in the end of June, I have learned the various false representations, some of them published in the public prints, which have arisen from the fact that the Ham burgh bark Echo commanded by me was accused, tried, and condemned, by the English Government in Sierra Leone for aiding and abetting the slave trade. I owe it therefore, to my character to publish a simple and complete statement of that occurrence, which I com pile from the declarations upon oath, both here and at Sierra Leone, of myself and my crew. " In the month of October, 1840, the bark Echo was freighted in Havannah, by the American merchant Charles Jyng, with a cargo of goods to New or Young Sestos, on the west coast of Africa. " The written instructions cf the correspondents of tny owners. Messrs. Balauf and Co., were, that I should, after completing my voyage to New Sestos, endeavour to procure an advantageous charter upon the coast, or sail to Curacoa or Buenos Ayres, and there load a cargo of salt to Havannah. " Before 1 sailed from Havannah I showed my manifest to the English and Hanseatic Consuls, and asked them whether...there were any articles among the cargo which could not be carried to the west coast of Alrice. They assured me that this was not the case, and thet 1 might depart in perfect security with my cargo. I also obtained from the American Consul certificate that the cargo was American propel ty. "Oa the sth of November I left Havannab. Upoo my voyage, as I approached the coat, Captain Den man, of the brie-of-war Wanderer, boarded me with two officers and 19 men in three boats, and made me show my papers, wleich he found in order. He told me that he, too, was sailing for New Sestos, where .w e should meet again. "On the 15th of December I anchored at New Sestos. Immediately the master of the Wanderer came on board me, and declared that it was his orders and duty to examine most minutely my papers and the cargo. Inst intly an overhauling of the cargo was com menced, many bales and casks were opened, and the whole cargo was displaced. The search ended on the third day. The officers declared that all was in due order, and that I might commence discharging when I pleased. The master wrote with his own head in my leg, that he had overhauled the whole cargo, and had found nething suspicious, that afterwards the ship should be detaied upon her voyage by no other ship of war. Moreover, he brought me a certificate to the same (ffect from Captain Denman. At the same time Captain Denman sent on board me seven Spa- M-I prisoners, with an inquiry whether I would take Oem to Havannah. I arranged with these people for their passage, and kept them on board. After I had declared myself ready to comply with Captain Denman's wish, he com munictited to me through the master that I should sail with a good freight if I proceeded to Sierra Leone, Where there were many Spaniards for whose passage the Governor wouli pay well, in order to get rid of these people, who cost the English Government a great deal of money every day.''T h us it was this repre sentation of Captain Denman, of the English brig of war War.derer, which induced me, for the interest of my owner. to call everywhere for passengers. On the 24th of D2ccinber, having complete d discharging. I Jelt New Sestos, and, upon Captain Deninanle recom mendation only, determined to sail for Sierra Leone, and upon the passage to cal at the different inter mediate ports t collect as many passengers as possibc. After taking in fresh water at Cape Mesuralo, I saile,! to Gallinas, which had been burned and com pletely destroyed by the English, and to the Rio Sherbre. At these places I obtained some passengers, but the necessary provisions wire not to be obtained. In accordance with my instructions, I had entered into an agreement with fell my passengers without exception, that I should carry them to Havannah direct, in case the ship collected 3,000 dollars passage money ; but that if I could not get together that sum, I should pro ceed first to Curacoa in order to take in a cargo of sa lt th ere . After that, in despite of the certificate given by Capin Denman and his Master, I had been overhauled by the English brig-of-war Saracen, Cap tain Bill, upon my voyage. I anchorel on the 9th of .January in the harbour of Sierra Leone, and entered m y ship at the Custom-house. She was again searched i n the strictest manner by the col'ector there. Even the ba:last was taken up, all my papers, not even ex cepting 0.. v private papers, all the papers and corre spondence of the passengers, every scrap were taken on shore and e.elinined• " On the 11th of January I went to the Governor, Si r John j ere oie, and told him that I had learned from Captain De s eman that there were here rimy Spaniards, whom ti se e Government wished to send away ; and that, if I _could arrange with him for the passage-money, I was incline,: to take them to Havitn nah as passengers. Not a little as - tanislied was I when the Governor replied in a very bars!:. tone, that he would never make any agreement with a slaver or slave dealer ; and that he, for his pa-t, w o u.'4 not send away one of the Spaniards then there. Whed I here upon asked if I might land some of my passenger/ to purchase provisions, I was refused leave by the GJ , vrrnor. Not even the request to be allowed to in crease ray supply of water (or water-casks) was granted. On the contrary, I received, at two o'clock an the afternoon of the P r tth of January, my papers, and the clearance of the Custom-`.,ruse, with an order to leave the port of Sierra Leone a; fast as possible. I had engaged, in Sierra Leone, some more passengers, provided with passports irons the Gosernor, and was busily ee'gaged that afternoon in purchasing provisions, which of every kind were wanting, and some iron ballast ; but, in seise of every exertion, I could not make my ship ready for sea before the next morning. Early on the 13th of January an officer cerise on board, searched once more the ship, es pecially the stores of water, and thee departed, with a declaration that all was in due order. At eight o'clock the pilot came on board, and I sailed with only a light Jand breeze, and against the tide. In the course of half an hour I remarked two Government boats steering after me, from which, when yet dist ant, the pilot was com manded to bring the ship back to the port, and to lie at anchor till further orders. From the boats there came on hoard an English officer, the harbour-master, T. 31‘Foy, and an advocate, named Dogan, retained by the Governor—the two last mulattoes—with some eight men ; and by these men all my ship's papers were taken from me. " Whea in the harbour the ship was occupied by at least fifteen soldiers and police-officers. I sought in •ain any explanation of so astounding a proceeding. The harbour-master act2d upon an order of tie Go vernor', whose motive was yet, he said, unknown to him, and upon this I must proceed nearer to the shore. cOmm,nd of the ship was taken from me; I, my crex, and all the passengers, were forcibly driven from an board ; all our effect., even to our pocket , , were stn,aly searched, and whatever were found of value, snone - . watches, Ste., were taken from us. " To the question where I and my crew should find sli&ter, ti.et officer replied that he did not care ; the re• quest to bc allowed to take sonic provisions with me irom the shi t '. for the support of my people was re fused, and without the help of some honest natives wt; should kale begun without a roof, and without the most necessary Ineans of support. A written inquiry of the Governor for the reasons of this _proceed rernained unanswered. I sought twice in vain to , e! him in person ; I was repulsed by guards and adju tants. At last, on the 13th of January, I succeeded is seem the Governor in the secretary's office, but even then be ga%e me as answer to my inquiries re the grounds o f th e s hi p ' s arrest, only that the s pecting affair must be exarrened in the Vice-Admiralty Court. Through a public notice on th e 16 t h o f J anuary I learned tha t t h e H . amburgh b oa t E c h o was suspected and accused of having aided the slave trade, an d t h at on this subject a judicial investigation would ta k e p l ace on the 25th of January. This trial did n o t, h owever, tyke Place ; and no t till the 1 01 h of February was I, upon my repeated urgency for an investigation, su mmone d t o a ppear the ne xt day before the Chief-J ust i ce to answer some questions. The questions put t o me ed on oath, rcl lied to the I hi I origin uporl ofwh;ch I was exa m.n the ' ship, t o her owners op, to cargoes wch had carried from burgh to Havannah, and thence to New Sestos, gc ljrn n i ..l lean:el on this occasion that a severe systematic search. of the vessel had not pro duced the least ground for su specting me of an offence; 1 at time have re fused, lution. after this, it a p a rti c ip a tion in which I would fused with the, steadiest resolution. was caught to bring suspicion on I commanded, in that the consignee me and the vessel . ino o t, was engaged fa part of the cargo in New Sestos, 'Theodore (-;• in the slave trade. Through the declaration upon oath myself and of ray crew, that this Senor Canot was living under English protection in New Sestos, and tha t at the ti me o f our arr i va l t h ere t h e Englishflag was upon less hisho use , t hi s c h arge was a l so a b an d one d. With not reason I appealed to the certificates granted me by the English, H anseat i c, and American C onsu l s , as well as to that grante d b y Capt. Denman, in respect to m y cargo. To my question, when the judicial determination of my case would take place, I received the reply that it was fixed for the 17th of February. But no court was held on that day ; but when I, put off from day to day, en the '?.Bth of February, presented a repetition of my pro test to the Governor, I was committed the next day upon a charge of having aided the slave trade. " At length, on the Bth of March, while I was a prisoner, the trial was held, and the bark Echo con dam ned for aiding and abetting the slave trade. .‘ The act of condemnation did not contain in any p a re a real ground by which such a decision could be justified ; neither was anything in any other way corn muniicated to me, or held out as a defence of it, which court 1 g i ve pret ence f or such a judgment. Every tihtngwas limited to the untrue—and rebutted by lbes depositions on oath of my whole remaining cre,v--declaration of a sailor who had been re leas ed from a prison a little before I received him on board, that I had destroyed and thrown over :, Ix,. rd papers upon the voyage. On the 9th of March I w as released upon hail, ill and weak, from the prison ,--- r. into which I had been thrown among robbers and mur derers. On the 24th of March I was tried. The ac cusation was thct the ship Echo had been, with my knowledge and consent, from the first built for the slave trade—that my name of Sobst was not the ge nuine, but a fictitious one, and that I had only come to the coast to carry on the slave trade. After my at torney bad given in my defence, which had its best foundation in my consciousness of my entire innocence, the jury withdrew. After half an hour they re-entered land declared me " not guilty." Set at liberty, and pro vided with a pasport from the Governor, I returned to Europe. " I repeat here, what I have insisted on in all my sworn declarations, that I have not taken the least share in the offence of participation in the slave trade imputed to me, and that, a: master of the Echo, I have not stained the honour of the flag of Hamburgb. Only upon the advice of Captain Denman, of the En?lish squadron, did I go to Siorra Leone at all ; it was this officer of the British navy who sent the first seven pas sengers on board of me. And when, in an article up on this subject in the Hamburger Nenc Zeitung, No. 79, of the 3d of April, the legality of the condemnat:on of the bark Echo is presumed from the justice which should influence the proceedings of every Court, it should be remembered that in this case the proceedings of one and a subordinate Court only are concerned. But the final result which will be produced by the appeal in this case cannot be doubtful to me, who have the firmest confidence in the justice of the highest Court, which is called upon to decide finally on it. But, however this may end, nothing can compensate me for the oppression, the sorrow, and the suffering I have undergone, though guiltless. Only in the este In of my fellow-citizens, of which I am conscious I have not rendereti myself unworthy through any criminal traffic, can I find some compensation for what. I have undergone. " C. G. A. SOHST, " Late Captain of the Hamburg bark Echo. " Hamburg, Aug. 20." MURDER AND PIRACY. The Sag Harbour Corrector, of August 11, gi the following account of an atrocious murder and piracy Rent them by the American Consul at the island of St. Helena, to put persons visiting the Nicobar Islands on their guard ' After leaving Timor, in July, we cruised off San dalwood for three months, thence to the coast of Su matra, Java, &c. We had been rather unsuccessful in not seeing whales, and every other ship we have seen had been the same. In November we steered for the Porgy Islands, off Sumatra, and took some whales, but could not remain, the weather proving very unpro pitious ; therefore, Captain G. Wheeler determined to run up the Bay of Bengal, and endeavour to obtain refreshments, some of the crew having appearances of scurvy. We made the Chowry Islands in December, and by the winds being changeable, and calms, we were delayed some days. At lingth a breeze sprang up, and we made Teressa and Bempoka, but the captain con ceiving the shelter for the ship not sufficient, continued a course intending to enter Nanchowry harbour. Oa December 22, 1840, we made the land, and in the afternoon came near. Several large canoes with na tives came off towards the vessel. They requested to know what we had to trade for, and where we were going to. Our answer wag—' Nanchowry harbour.' fhey promised to bring pigs, yams, cocoa-nut=, &c, on the In- lowing day, stating that they bad plenty. An other canoe came up alongside, and two or three natives and one European, who said he was a Por'uguese, and spoke broken English, as also the native', asking the same questions as the others bad, and had the same re plies. They also proposed to come and trade on the following day. We entered the harbour and anchored in about 15 fathoms water, completely landlocked on all sides. At about five o'clock in the afternoon of the 22d of December, some of the natives came to the ves sel from the several villages or towns around us, and promised to come and trade on the morrow ; a little before dark, the second and third mates, with one boat and crew, went on shore at one of the villages, and re turned in about two hours, having purchased one small tortoise shell, turtles' shells, and some few trifler, and stated the natives appeared very friendly, and spoke a little English. On Wednesday morning, about seven o'clock, the Captain took his boat, containing William Hardy and George Preston, and went to two of the villages and requested the natives to come early rind trade ; we saw plenty of fine pigs, poultry, &c. Du ring the day some pigs, cocoa-nuts, oranges, &c., were brought on board. During the morning the Captain, two boys, and myself, went to look at the water ing place, and on our returning to the vessel, called at a small village ; the natives gave us some toddy to drink. After dicner the Captain, the same two boys, and myself, also J. Robin son, went on shore to another town, taking with us some handkerchiefs, calico, dungaree, &e., to trade with. By degrees a great many natives gathered round the boat. I showed them the articles, and, although there were plenty of pigs, fowl 4, &c., we only succeeded in purchasing one pig for calico, and returned on board, the rest of the ship's company being engaee:l in getting up casks for watering the ship, and re-coopering some dry provisions. Directly after four o'clock, in the af tereoon, when all work was put aside for the day, the second mate, Mr. Snowden, and third mate Mr. Cask, said they were going on shore, at the same village they went to on the evening previous, and asked me to go also ; we left the vessel almost immediately, in one of the old whale boats, and nine hands, in all twelve of us. Upon our nearing the village we perceived an other of our ell boats leaving the ship, containing either the mate or the captain and some of.the ship's crew ; they went towards another village, but cannot say how many were is her. We went on shore, saw seve ral natives, and went up into one of their houses, and gave them some tobacco and cigars, aad they gave us fire, and we all commenced smoking (they are very fond of tobacco) ; we did not make any purchases, and they promised to come to the ship in the morn ing. In about a quarter of an hour we left this house, and in walking amongst the others saw more natives ; all of a sudden we heard a kind of howl or scream, which appeared to proceed from the ship. Mr. Snowden said it imported something he did not like to hear, and said, "Let us go to the boat and return." At the same instant he saw several natives arming themselves with spears, and Robinson asked one old man in the Malty language what they were going to do ; his answer was, " I do not know ;" and immediately a number of natives came running from the bush at the back of the houses, and attacked us with spears. One struck Mr. Snowden, the second mare, through the body ; he fell, and the native then pierced him through with another, and pinned him to the ground. James Robinson was struck immediately afterwards by ano ther native in the same way. Mr. Clark was struck through the side with a spear, close to the boat. William Burt, wounded in two places. These two and the rest succeeded in getting into the boat and pushing off towards the vessel, although numbers of spears struck the oars, hoat, &c. Upon our near ing the teasel, great was our consternation to find her in the possession of the.nativee, who were standing all round the rail, in the boats, and every one armed with ship's cutlasses, cutting spades, lances, harpoons, &c., and in such numbers that we bad not the slightest chance to get on board, being totally unarmed ourselves ; therefore we had no other alternative than either to be ladled there, or endeavour to proceed to sea and risk being picked up by some vessel. As soon as the na tives saw us retiring from the ship, they immediately pulled off in canoes from the village we had been at tacked at, as also from another village, bath being be tween us and the entrance of the harbour, but through the good management of James Clark, who took the steering oar, they could not come up with us sufficiently to throw their spears to injure IF, although they pur sued us till dark ; we continued at the oars all night ; in the morning Chowry Island hove in sight, about seven miles off; we continued pulling against wind, tide, and a heavy sea, and when it came near, about midday, saw some natives fishing, and endeavoured to buy some cocoa-nuts from them for hankerchiefs, tobacco, razors, knives, &c., and one rupee, which we had about us. We succeeded in inducing the natives to let us have about 27 cocoa-nuts, and we then put to sea with out tweed. water, sail, or anything to subsist upon be sides the 27 cocoa-nuts, amongst ten men, in an open boat, 1,000 miles from Ceylon, and 700 from any other place we could pull towards, having no compass. We agreed to live upon two cocoa -nuts per day if possible, but our thirst became so great we were obliged to use more ; we cut off the legs of our trousers to make a sail, and tore up the boards from the bottom of the boat, and tied them with handkerchiefs together and made a sail, the mast being one of the oars ; in this way we were picked up at set by her Majesty's ship Cruiser, who took us on board on December 29th, at half-past eight in the morning, and immediately gave us sago, &c. In the afternoon the captain inquired the particulars of us, and although he bad General Sir Hugh Gough, for the China expedition, on board, pro ceeding to China, he altered his course, and on the 31st of September, at five in the evening, we re-entered the place, where the Pilot was still lyine, but not one of our cre.v was to be found, and there was every appearance of their having been all massacred. The vessel was found to be plundered of every article of clothing, beddinir, sails, rope, blocks, lances, harpoons, muskets, guns (large), cutlasses, all the spirits, wine, ale, porter, bread, and every piece of iron cut out from her bul. warks, davit-he ads, the copper stripped off her bottom ; and, in fact, such destruction committed in the short space of one week, as no person can accurately de scribe, and in a day or two more she would not have We visited the villages, but the been worth removing. natives had fled upon our coming in ; found a great quantity of rope, canvass, sails cut in pieces, lances, &c., iron hoop bands from masts , & c., but no clothing or article of dress. • • " Twenty-one of the officers and crew are missing, two we saw killed, and ten only escaped. " There cannot be any doubt of every one missing teing massacred—the decks stained with blood in many places, also old sails, canvass, &c. In one part of the fleck, the shape of a man Laving been apparently smashed to pieces can be distinctly traced, and in several places the print of a man's bloody hand can be seen. " W. BLACKWELL, " Surgeon, whaling bark Pilot, London." A TALE OF SLAVERY. (From a New York Paper.) The following well attested facts are submitted to the public, with a view of obtaining for the oppressed family some immediate relief, and also to present the claims of the Vigilance Committee, by which institu tion they are now protected, to the sympathy and support of the Christian community. It may be well to observe, that the following is by no means an ex treme case, but merely a sample of many, coming under the care of the Vigilance Committee. J. S. a coloured man now about fifty-three years of age, was formerly held as a slave, by a lady in one of the northern slave States. Early in life he mar ried a slave belonging to a man some short distance from the place in which he lived. They appear to have been much attached to each other ; and as far as the degrading system of sl tvery would allow, conducted themselves with Christian consistency. They are both members of the Methodist church, and appear to be truly pious people. Being permitted by his mistress to work out, he obtained a little money for himself, and was at length encouraged to beg the lady who held him, to sell him his freedom ; this she con sented to do for 500 dollars. By perseveranceand industry he raised'this sum, and soon become a free man. This im portant point being gained, his next solicitude was to pro cure the freedom of his wife, but this he could not obtain, for the monstrous reason, that she was too valuable to her owners, for raising slaves for the southern market ; thirteen children having been torn from those afflicted parents and sold, most of them in childhood, to the traders for the south. Oh ! said the distressed father, (while relating his sufferings,) every one that was taken from me, was like cutting away piece of my heart; they are gone, 1 shall never see them again. The mother could only exprsss her anguish by a silent look of despair. And yet, with Christian fortitude and patience, he continued to labour, and by his industry he was en abled to buy two lots of ground, and build two cot tages, one of which he rented, the other he furnished comfortably for himself. But another desolating storm was yet to break over him, and sweep away every vestige of happiness. His wile and last remaining child, a fine little girl about five years old, were still slaves, and at length the sad tidings were brought him, that their owner l ad sold them both to the traders, who had removed them to the slave prison in Alexandria. This was the wreck of all hopes. The state of his mind can neither be here de scribed nor imagined by those whose colour pre serves them from such dire, inconceivable wretch. ednev. What could he do ;he had some property worth about seven hundred dollars, but all he had was worthless compared with his wile and child ; be therefore resolved to sacrifice it all to recover them if possible, and hastened at once to Mr. 'l'., a man of property and Member of Congress, to whom he related his tale of sorrow, and offered to make over to him the houses and land, if lie would go to Alexandria and repurchase his wife and child for him ! after some deliberation this was agreed to. Tire poor man made over all his property to Mr. T., who purchased the wife and child in his own name, thereby becoming their owner. They were indeed allowed to live with the husband, but he could never obtain from Mr. T. a bill of sale for them by which they might become legally his ; they were still the slaves of Mr. T. in the eye of the law, and, hence, another wave of trouble was permitted to overwhelm them. This man, if such he may be called, without insulting our common nature, with monstrous crnelty, sold them last month to a trader, after he had taken tl.e wLole of the poor man's property as the price of their freedom ; he was at this tine attending Congress, and ere the trader arrived to remove them, some friend l .7 person brought the melancholy tidings to them, in order that they might take some measures to protect theiricelves. The poor man immediately applied to a lawyer for advice, but he told him it was useless to content the point at law ; having no bill of sale from Mr. T. and no money to carry on a suit he was sure to be cast ; and therefore he declined any proceedings in his defence. One thing only now remained to be done. His wile and chid were not yet taken off. He de termined to leave everything, the little wreck of pro perty he had remaining, and flee with them to a land of liberty. Friendless and almost penniless, he com menced hip journey in the severity of winter, and by the care of a merciful Providence, has arrived thus far in safety, and has thrown himself for protection and support on the N. Y. Committee of Vigilance. THE SLAVE TRADE. (From the Cincinnati Philanthropist.) During the last session of Congress, a call was made upon the President of the United States for information in relation to correspondence with the British Govern ment on the subject of the seizure of American vesse's on the African coast, on account of being engaged in the slave-trade. We are not aware that the call was responded to. At all events, no papers of the kind have been published. The subject ought not to be per mitted to rest. Certain prints are now assiduous in pre occupying the public mind with stories about the viola tion of our flag by British cruisers. We feel as sensitive as any one can feel on this point, and would be willing to go to the uttermost in resisting all impertinent inter ference with the naval rights of our country. But, the conviction is forced upon us, that it is not the British Government, but American citizens, on whom is charge able the violation of the American flag. That this flag is prostituted to shield an infernal traffic in the bodies and souls of men ; that such prostitution is fa cilitated by accredited agents of the American Govern ment, and almost connived at by the Government itself, there is but too much reason to believe. Years ago, in reply to overtures of the British Cabinet for a Con_ vention against the slave-trade, Mr. Forsyth, after a de cided rejection of the proposition, complacently an nounced that America possessed within inself unassisted, by the co-operation of any other Power, the means of de tecting and punishing those American citizens who might violate its laws with respect to the slave-trade. What has America done to verify this assumption ? Just nothing at all, and the world knows it. And this is not all—we do not believe that the Government, when the announcement was made, intended to do any thing—it did not intend to keep its faith thus virtually pledged to suppress the traffic so far as our citizens were concerned. What slavers have been captured by American cruisers, how many stolen men redeemed, how many slave-factories destroyed So far from the American traffic in African slaves having been arrested, it has frightfully increased, and our flag now is the favourite flag of the slave-trader. And what are our two or tbree cruisers stationed on the coast, doing to save the country from this horrible degradation ? We will tell you :—They are watching the British cruisers, lest they should interfere with the colony of Liberia, and• in various ways, subserviog the purposes of the Colonization Society. " The Government of the United States continues to extend its power and protection to the colony, through its operations to sup press the slave-trade." So says the Report of the Board of Managers of the Colonization Society. Here is testimony from those who know best, to the fact, that American cruisers are subserving the purposes of this Society ; but where is the evidence of their efficiency in suppressing the slave-trade ? Can any one tell ? Do you see in our newspapers, ac counts of the capture of slave-ships by American ves sels ? No—it is all sham—the Governivent has not been in earnest—it has been lying to tie good people of this country, and to the world. For, will any one tell us, that American cruisers cannot show as much skill, and activity, and vigilance, as the British ? There was no lack of these qualities on the part of our sea men in the last war. But now, our commanders are narcotized—they have no eye;—their cannon has lost its voice. Eternal infamy be the heritage of a Govern ment, which has caused the name of this nation to stink in the nostrils of even the priest•riddon, king-crushed nations of the old world. But why has the Government acted thus ? Is not this a Christian people ? Are we, who make the Go vernment, not men, republican men ? Have we no humanity, no honour, no sensibility to shame ? Why then has the Government dared to make us an object of loathing to all hoi,est men every where ? Hear the reason, and would that it could be spoken in thunder to the ear and heart of every cit;zen of the free States it is because slaveholders rule the Government—con stitute its exponents and administrators. Our Secretary of State was a sl iveholder—our Se cretary of the Navy was a tool of the slaveholder— our President was a. northern man with slaveholding prin ciples. Had anti-slavery men been at the head of Go vernment, should we have been plunged into this bot tomless pit of infamy ? Never. The glorious flag of the republic, instead of waving over the floating hells of the slave-trader, would, wherever unfurled, have made the iron heart of the fiend melt away within him with fear of coming venge ince. Will the pieient Administration do better ? Let us see :•—llaniel Webster, who offered up his northern faith on the altar at Alexandria to propitiate the Mo loch of slavery, is Secretary of S.atr. A slaveholder is Secretary of the Navy. The head of the Govern. merit is a southern man with pro-slavery principles. Flimsy foundation for hope, but still we will hope. Let the people take the matter in hand—let hundreds of thousands of remonstrances go up to the National Legislature demanding the redemption of the national flag from dishonour, and the effectual suppression of the slave•trade us carried on by American citizens. Let us see whether the new Administration bas more soul , than the old one. PAISLEY.--The ministers of Paisley, of all de nominations, have agreed to address her Majesty on the condi tion of the vvorkirg (lasses in all the manufacturing districts, and to implore her not to prorogue P.,rliament till some effec tive measures have been taken for their relief.

Some time since a man was employed by Mr. Hull, the landlord of Ashill Inn, to put tro a bedstead in his house. After having received the accessary instruc tions, he was left to himseV, and poceeding with his job he found the poles too long for the height of the coom ; thinking it not best to shorten them, he forced the top of :one: through;the ceiling which, being old, readily gave way, when to the astonishment of the man, dovn tumbled a sort of tin box, which perhaps hail been fo'merly used in basting treat. On a hasty examinat'on he found it to contain a good quart city of ad guineas and half-guireas, which, how ever, he managed to It( ep secret and carry home to his loving spouse. The treasure was kept a con siderable time, because of the difficulty of getting it changed, during which time many whispering confer ences took place between them as :o the best mitbod of disposing of the old gold. Ultimately, it appears, a portion.of it was exchanged for so'ereigns, with which he began very honourably to pay off his debts, and to furnish himself, his wife, and famill with a good stock of clothing, much to the surprioo of all who knew him. Hitherto they had done what man) now a days cannot do, and that is, they kept their own secret, until one unlucky day, in conversation with an old woman, our " wise saw," in the fullness of hs heart, gays a few hints about the matter, binding hir of course to ever lasting secresy and good faith, Oriels was as rem* acceded to on her part. The elotuence of both being ended, they parted as sworn frients ought to part, with each others secrets, locked up sately in their breasts ; in this case, however, it struggled violently with tae old lady to find a vent, consequently, by some means or other, she found her way to the landlord of the said inn where the shower of gold took place, and whether she thought it a good opportunity of getting something comfortable we cannot say ; but the golden secret was u.hered into the ear of the landlord, who hardly knew whether it was a dream or whether he was awake. Could it possibly have taken place ? and in his own house too, while he was in it ! and from the very ceiling under which he bad so often reposed. quite unconscious of the wealth it contained! At last Ire found himself indeed awake, and fully awake also to the truth of the whole affair. Mutters was now too clear for the carpenter to deny it, but for his life he could not tell how much it was ; he said ha took it home to his wife because she bad more time to count it than he had, though his bey has since said, that " If vather wos to find sich atother lot he wooden work any moor." The owner of the house, J. Slater, was next informed of the ci.cumstance, and on making inquiries about it, finding there was no probability of his regaining the hoard this fortunately discovered, he very generously left the mars in the quiet possession of the whole, saying he hoped it would do him good. It is generally supposed :o have been hidden there many years ago, by some parsimonious dame who then occupied the house, as various small sums have lately been found hoarded up in a similar way. Indeed this was a lucky hit.—Somerset County Gazette. RAILWAY IN BRAZIL. Taking, as we do, a great interest in Brazil, on account of the connect'on of many of the Mining and Steam Navigation Companies with it, we avail ourselves of the present opportunity of giving more information respecting the proposed railway. The proposed capital is two millions sterling, or 8,000 contos of reis, and the number of shares is proposed to be 16 000 of 1201. each, to be paid in five years, by calls every three months of Of. each. These arrangements may be very suitable to our Brazilian Correspondents, but we think that shares of srnallar amount wculd have been better adapte , l for the market here. The Provisional Committee consists J. J. Pereira de Faro, J. A. d'Olive:ra Silva, A. du Cunha Babeza Guirriaraes, M. E. Montairo de Barros, Thomas Cochrane, and J. P. da Veig,a, Trrasurer. The railway is proposed to run from Rio to the confines of the rich provinces of Minas Geraes (General Mines, the great mining province), aid Saint Paulo, crossing Ignassu, passing the Serra (or mum,- tain chain and the river of Paraiba, and going through the districts of Pirallay, Barra Manso, Rezendo and Campo Bello. By this means a communication is noerel with the main lines of traffic from the Minas Ge i •aes, Saint Paulo, Goinz, and Matta Grosso. Tiie•rstimare of traffic is as follows : Dollars. 3,000,000 arrobas of coffee 2,623,000 251,000 arrobas of fumo 331,400 500 arrobas of bacon„ BOO,OOO 3,000,030 of briniest; of salt... 3,000,000 arsobas of _supdrias 3,000,000 100 passengers backwards and forward daily Cattle • 163,'208 10,304,608 equal to £ 2,500,000 . The Brazilian empire; being Ike the rest of the southern continent of America, some centuries behind the European world with ;•egard to internal communi cation : in fact, without roads, and with worse than pack-horse carriage, it is a subject uc congratulation to find a spirit of enterprise among the e, tal i sts of that vast empire, who arc aware how seriously its inte rests are prejudiced by the present deficient moans of transfer,' and arc prepared to exert themselves to eppi; a remedy to remove every impediment to the develop ment of its abundant resources. Much eretit is also due to the Brazilian Government and to the Legislature, for the readiness with which they have co-opdrated for the advancement of this project, not only by granting to it many valuable privileges and immunities, but also by entertaining the plan of becoming Shareholders to the amount of 500,000/. The advantages to thp empire attendant oa the completion of this noble undertaking will be incalculable, as the present wretched lines of communication with the interior con sist of mere mule-tracks, producing a delay in the journey of some eight or ten days, and creating to the larnfewner a loss of Iron 20 to 50 -per ceat. on the merchandise sent on the backs of mules to market ; so that by the estab!ishtnent of a rapid and regular sys. ells of communication by means of railways, the agricul turist will be enabled to forward the produce of his lauds to market at a trifling expense, and in fewer hours than days are now required. To us who are accustomed to economise our time, and regulate it with a knowledge that time is money, it may well be surprising to us to see how the South Ame rican nations could have so long remained insensi ble to a consideration so important. Although in this country posses:ed of macadamised roads, and travelling at the rate of from ten to twelve miles per hour, and with a land intersected with canals and na vigable rivers, still the great value of time and rapid communication created a dissatisfaction at this com paratively slow medium of traffic, and has led to the general introduction and establishment of the railway sy s em. Everything, however, must have a beginning ; Brazil is but a young, though a very great empire, and the spirited way in which the Brazilians has e ad vanced their money in support of this national under taking, and the wealthy and distinguished personages who have undertaken to carry it out, lead us to entertain hopes of success. To capitalists here, this plan, sanctioned as it is by the Legislature, and supported by the power and the wealth of the Govern ment, promises to turn out a profitable concern, and we shoal think a safe investment, inasmuch as the Bra ilian Government have honourably distinguished them selves amongst their South American colleagues, by the punctual discharge of their financial obligations, while it must not be forgotten that next to the United States the Brazilians are the largest consumers of our manu. factures, and contribute most largely to our trade. SUICIDE AND INQUEST. e On Monday evening an investigation took place at the White Lion, Brighton, before Mr. Gell, Coroner for East Sussex, into the circumstances attending the death of William Ogilvie Morrison, a commercial agent, about 37 years of age, whose body, after being interred for a fortnight, had been exhumed for the purposes of the in quest, by virtue of the Coroner's warrant. After the Jury had been sworn, The .CORONER said, he thought it right to mention that the inquest was called under somewhat peculiar cir cumstances, it being, in fact, occasioned by an anonymous letter, dated the 18th of September, and sent to him at Lewes by post. The letter, although anonymous, was written hi so proper a style that he had felt it to be his duty to send it to the Brighton officers; and Mr. Solomon, the chief officer, made the necessary inquiries. Ile (the Coroner) afterwards called on Mr. Philpott, the medical gentleman who attended the deceased, and took his depo sition, from width it appeared clear that the deceased had died an unnatural, if not a violent, death. He (the Coroner) thereupon consulted several gentlemen, in cluding some of the medical profession, and a highly in telligent Magistrate ; and although it was a most unplea sant thing to exhume a body, he had felt it necessary that this should be done, and that an inquest should be held on the remains. Mr. Richard Price Philpott, surgeon, who went to see the deceased, fcund hint retching. That which came away from the stomach smelled strongly of turpentine. Witness was told that he had taken a mixture of corro sive sublimate and turpentine. lie continued to attend deceased to the day of his death , which ha pp ened on Wednesday, the Bth of September, and in one of his visits deceased said he had taken poison for the purpose of self-destruction. The poison was probably the cause of his death, but the symptoms of poisoning ceased before he died. Deceased appeared to be perfectly sensible, but he had been subject to hypochondriacal disease. Witness learned from his parents that this was the fifth time that he had attempted self-destruction. Witness observed a cicatrice in deceased's neck, which he understod was caused by his cutting his throat. Other witnesses were examined, and after the investi gation, had last e d three hours anti a half, the Jury re turned a verdi c t "That the deceased destroyed h imself I by taking poison while in a fit of insanity.". " What will London become ?" is a question which may w e ll b e as ked when the rapid extension of its numerous streets, squares, &c. is contemplated. One contract recently entered into by Messrs. C ubitt, the emi nent builders, is for six thousand houses near Belgrave square. The sewerage of the , f2:rou nd, now in progress, will alone cost no less a sum than 25,090/.—Cumbridye Advertiser.

During Sunday and Monday the admissions into the Charity Hospital were 37; of these 20 were yellow fever cas:s, many of them brought there in the last stage of the disease.; There were 8 deaths of yellow fever within the two days, and 4 were discharged cured of the same disease. There were 7 admissions during the last two days into the hospital of Drs. Stone and Kennedy ' • 3 of these were yellow fever cases. The number of yellow fever admissions into Drs. Campbell and Mackie's hospital during the same time, was 6—there was one death.—New Orleans Paper, August 24. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE DAILY PAYERS OF YE-STEM - 7AV. - GLOBE.-Witr on the Factories is the ery of the Squires, to meet the watchword of war on the Corn laws. Mr. Ferran(' put himself forward last night as their boisterous and boiling representative. War on the factories! Very well, gentlemen. You can make war on them, if you think proper. It will be well, however, that you consider beforehand, how you shall pay your troops. You can enlist certainly the most ignorant part of the population in your most ignorant quarrA. You can get your drunken freemen, and the unemployed desperates of our towns, to echo your cry of " Down with the manufacturing system!" You can lead men,. pinched with the want which your law of the lied has inflicted on them, to believe that those who are nearest are the right objects of their rage and vengeance—that those who employ them are answerable for the scant food they can earn by labour, and even for the slackened employment which proves that capital is working without profit. You can lead ignorant men to believe that masters regulate wages by their own will ; and that when wages fall, and food rises, their immediate employers are answerable. You can screen from their view the truth that one class of capitalists, and one only, can and do affect the rate of wages, and 'the comforts those wages can buy. That class is the class who speculate on a nation's subsistence ! —who combine to stint the supply of that subsistence ; in order to raise its price—who prohibit returns in food fur exports of British commodities, and thereby sentence the manufacturing masses to periods of want and woe. Yes I—those periods recur—they recur with ever-Increas ing intensity—they draw disease and sordid recklessness of all but bare life in their train—they stamp their wild and haggard physiognomy on the myriads of our towns —and they teach no other lesson to the bread-barring • caste who rule us, than the base lesson of recrimination and insult on those they ruin and starve. STANI)ARD.-15pon the House going into Com mittee upon the Poor-law Commission Continuance Bill, a very long debate was raised, and in the course of this debate the whole subject of the New Poor-law was can vassed. This discussion was no more than was to be expected, considering the opportunity it afforded for making a seeming show of division in the Conserva tive party, hut it was nevertheless uncalled for and irregular. The question before Parliament is simply this —shall the Commission be continued front the 31st of December to the 31st of July; or shall the New Poor law, which, in its present unmodified state, cannot be administered without such a Commission, be left to administer itself, and throw the country into confusion ? It is quite plain that, under such cir cumstances, there is no choice between the implicit continuance of the Commission and at once engaging witli the consideration of the whole law, through al its provisions and details. It will not suffice to admit partial amendments and modifications ; for once allow that the question is open for such partial amend. merits Cid modifications, and every one of the 658 Mem bers of the House of Commons will have the right to urge his favourite proposition. Now, it may be right that the Parliamentary business of the year shall have begun on the 19th of August, 1841, to be continued witheut irl.er ruption to—say the 19th of August, 1842. Upon this point it is unnecessary to speak at present ; but if this is not right, and the understanding in Parliament is, that such a- perpetual Session would be inconvenient, there can be no doubt that a question of such mag nitude as the New Poor-law Bill ought not to be dis cussed in a hurried remnant of a short Session. We have as strong an objection as ever to the harsher provisions of the New Poor-law ; and we have little doubt that in a Conservative House of Commons these harsh provisions will be mitigated, and the harsh ad ministration of the law guarded against ; and for that reason it is that we are anxious that the subject shall be left untouched until Parliament can sit down, calmly and deliberately, to deal with it, which Parliament cannot do at present. STATE OF TRADE. There was not quite so much demand for yarn yes terday as on the preceding Tuesday, owing, perhaps, in some degree to the non-arrival of a Russian mail which was expected. Prices, however, were perfectly steady. Goods were much the same as last week ; the prices steady, but the market entirely without animation. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, SEPT. 27. The market has been thinly atttended to-day, and there has been a great falling-off in the demand for flannels. In prices there is no change. The wool market has also been very dull, but prices steady. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, SEPT. 28.—This was a comparatively flat market, although, in some descriptions of fancies, heavy sales were made at fair prices ; but re-• cent failures in Manchester and other places have caused misgivings, which operate unfavourably, by inducing a degree of caution and timidity that tends to paralyze bu siness. Prices, however, Are, firm, and a fair general business is doing in the warehouses.—Manchester Guar (ham LEICESTER ADE.—The &mild for goods is dull for the season. The hosiers complain of the difficulty they experience in obtaining the smallest profit on their sales; and, in some cases, sacrifices arc submitted to with the view of clearing off stock. Business is far from being in a healthy or satisfactory condition ; but wool is firm, without alteration in price.— Leicester Chronicle. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. CORN EXCHANGE. _ The arrivals of all kinds of grain, since Monday, were small. There have been Twiny transactions in Foreign Wheat, at Monday's vrice. In other grains very little has been done, and the mt.* remain as last ttated. Flour unvaried. COLONIAL MARKET. There was little life in the market, both the home trade and shippers being cautious in their proceedings, but holders were firm, and little variation took place id prises, indeed they ap pear to have seen their lowest fur most kinds of produce. Tha imports continue large. NENVGATE AND LEADENIIALL. GAME AND PO ULTR Y. —The demand for Game was rather slack, and prices of last week barely maintained. Poultry—This day being Michaelmas Day, we had a splendid show of Geese at Market in the early part of the morning, the trade bought largely, but not to that extent which was expected had the weather been more settled, and the rates paid on Saturday were fully supported. Some fine Geese brought 9s. to I Is. and 12s. each. Eggs dull of sale, at 4s. 6d. to is. 6d. per 120. Meat of all descriptions, both town and country, was in good supply ; the demand being brisk, caused the salesmen to ask 2d. per stone more money, and in some instances fully 4d. per stone was obtained. TALLOW MARKET. Prices were steady for Russian Tallow, but the market was in a dull state, the trade taking only ample for their present wants. P. Y. Candle on the spot could not be had under 48s. per cwt. WOOL MARKET. Prices were steady for both English and Foreign, and a fsir business was done. The arrivals were small from all quarters, and the market looked firm. TEA MARKET. The operations in Tea were upon a small scale, and the Market exhibited a du'l aspect, but holders were firm, and prices were sustained. Company's Cougon, Is. 10d. ca,h.

SUGAR.—To-day importers of British Plantation were firm, and a good demand existed for both grocery and refining pur poses ; the prices established on Friday are fully supported ; indeed, for good and fine yellow sorts, which were the most in request, and of which the supply at market is not ample for the wants of the trade, 6d to Is advance were paid—a board of fine yellow Antigua fetched 70e. Several orders for Sugar have arrived from Ireland and Scotland. The purchases are 750 hhds and trs, including the sales. - There were two public sales of Barbadoes, consisting of 195 hhds 23 trs, which attracted a good attendance of the trade, and the whole found purchasers. Good and tine sorts went with spirit at Is advance, other kinds at full rates; fine yellow sold at 67s 6d to 695, good 64s to 66s 6:1, mid and 6ml mid 6Cs to 635, low heavy 55s to 58s 6d per cwt.

REFINED.—To-day the purchases were limited in Refined Goods, and there were sellers of Standard Lumps at 80s, with few buyers. Treacle moved off slowly at 25s to 31s, but fur Pieces and Bastards a good demand existed at the rates quoted above. Bonded Crushed Sugar was taken sparingly, but par cels of first quality could not be obtained under 29s 9.1 per cwt. AlAuxersus.—lhis afternoon, by private contract, several parcels were disposed of at full rates ; at public sale 851 bags went as follows—ordinary to fine brown at 42s 6d to 50s, low to good m ddling yellow 52s to 575, good 59s 6tl to 61s per cwt.
