ARIsTOCRACY VS.. ABOLITIONIsM

The Washington U. S. Telegraph The
editor of this paper is correct in his belief
that the aristocracy of the North are against
the aholitionists. Our ranks Of abolition
are filled with the middling interest men;
the mechanics, farmers and lahoring class
es. The highcs; dignitaries Of church and
state, the Lords spiritual at Andovor, and
the Lords temporal at Boston, have joined
hands against the friends of emancipation.
The Divine right Of shareholders is fully
recognized by both. But the abolitonisis
nsk no aid of either. Relying on the pow
or of truth on the pure democracy ofthcir
principles OH the promises of the Bible I;
on the answer of good conscience within
them, they will 60 on steadily and surely to
the accomplishment of their object, undc-
ierred by threats, unseduced by flatier-
.ers. The great question Of the right Of the
laborer, whether white or black. to the
fruits Of their hard toll, is fully before our
people. And does the intelligent editor of
the Telegraph dream for II moment that
the foundation principle of slavery as delin-
ed by Governor M'Duffie, and Mr. Pickens
of Congress, viz. that the Laborer is rightly
The property Qfthe capitalist, will find favor
among the working men Of New England?
Never, never. Our Southern friends de-
.ceive themselves. The spirit of inquiry
which is abroad on this subject will most
certainly result in the entire conviction to
the minds of the people of New England,
that slavery in one part Of the country is
an injury to the free laborer Of another
Hhat il is an attempt TO abrogate the eternal
laws of'God aud nature; IL deadly poison
in the well spring of human liberty and
happiness the evil effects OF which are felt
by all. HarerhW Gd=.

Piled his mouth 10 the afliighted animals

aud followed his gallant leader TO the beach,
where they both arrived in safety.

PIT OF HUMAN Bones. A singular dis
covery has been made in Canada, about II
miles from Dunds. The earth was seen to
no sunk about ID inches, which caused
search to be made when a large number
of pits, ten Ortwelvc in number, were found
containing human bones, and various Indian
implements, evidently showing that not
far from two thousand Indians had been
huddled into these receptacles, and buried
without the least order or system, and in
great haste. Large trees were growing
over some of these sepulchres; the kettles,
pots, hatchets, brass spoons, earthern cups,
wunpum, &c, were rotted and decayed,
evidently showing that they had been long
time buried. One hundred and twenty five
skeletons were found in one of the pits,
and the developer says that some of the
skeletons must have belonged to men us
much as eight feet in height. There is
probably some Indian tradition which would
throw light and interest on this curious hill
of human bones.

From tho New York Evening Post.

EAST INDIAN SLAVERY. From the fol-
lowing it appears, that Notwithstanding the
declarations ofthe English journalists about
American Slavery, the English government
yet allows human beings 10 be held in bon
dage in the East Indies.
".Nr Buxton, in the House of Commons
on Friday 20th Of July, inquired whether
any measures had been taken by the Gov
eminent towards carrying into effect the
abolition of slavery in our East Indian de-
Tendencies, agreeably to what was contem-
plated OH renewing the charter? Sir J. {.
HoJhouSe answered that it was the Com
pany, or rather the authorities abroad, and
not the Government, that ought to originate
measures on this subject; that as yet no
plan had been forwarded to the Government,
but that he would forthwith remind the
what ought to be donc."-English paper.
The VOLUNTARY PRINCIPLE. The "vol-
untary principle" is at work in the English
Church establishment. The Bishop Of
London has issued circular, pointing out
the deficiency Of church room in London
and its suburbs. A meeting of the friends
of the Church was held OH the 9th of july,
n subscription was set on foot, the King
contributed II thousand pounds, the Queen
three hundred, the archbishop of Canter-
bury Thousand, the archbishop of London
two thousand, and clergyman who did
not name himself, five thousand. The
whole amount was not much short of fifty
thousand pounds; u remarkable illustration
of the force Of the voluntary principle in
supporting public worship.
IAE WAY THEY MANAGE IN ENGLAND
GranIley Berkeley, n member of parliament
and younger son of some noble house or

Examiner as tolerable novel and credita-
bic TO IL member Of the arislocracy. Fra
zor's Magazine, the most sculrilous of the
English nonthlies, attacked it with great
bitterness, insinuuling that the author was
a coward and his mother harlot. Berke-
ley and his brother went to FraZer's and
asked for The namo of the author. Frazer
declined giving il and was soundly horse
whipped by the author of Berkely Castle
who was aiterward prosecuted and held Il
bail. The author of the attack, Dr. Maginn
afterwards avowed himself; he was called
out by Berkeley; The parties met in a field

changing three shots, without any effect

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM
MEXICO.

BY the arrival of the schooner Lady Hope,
in seven days from Tampico, we learn,that
the Mexican republic is in frightlully
CONFUSED state. The intelligence received
at Tampico previous to the sailing of the
schooner, was of most painful nature,
plotting, treachery and strife being the or
der Of the day, party ptted against party,
aud all in open hostility throughout that
distracted land. No battle of note. since
that Of Eta, had been fought, in which it
will be remembered, the constimiionulisis
were worsted; they are not, il appears,
dsprited by their deleat-on the contrary,
they are encouraged by the accession of
numbers 10 their ranks, aud the rapid cx-
tension of their principles. If this is cor
rect, the overthrow Of the present govern
mcut is the likely result, but it will not be
effected without much destruction Of life
The troops at Tampco are daily drilled
by the new commandment Pasa, and amount
TO one thousand mon. Captain Williams of
the Lady Hope, speaks highly Of Pasa, and
states that he is n most gentlcmanly and
humane man, giving all possible protection
to foreigners resident at Tampico and sup
pressing all attempts at riot and insubordi-
nation. His active and energetic measures
were productive Of much good. The des-
tnation of the troops under his command
was not known. NJ Orleans Bee.

WELLEsvILLE, Sept. ~.

In the towns along on the Genesco River,
i find the damage by the frost is much less
than in the other towns in this county, es-
pecally about WellesviIle, a village just
started, mushroomlike, into notice, and bids
fair soon to outstrip all others in this county,
ard in time TO become the county seat -
Four year ago, the site Of this place was
one entire, dense forest. Not house was
standing where now are hotels, stores, mills,
shops, and all the insignia Of n prosperous
and thriving town. Flour is selling here at
nine dollars per barrel, and at Nunda, SO
miles from this, at $40. ! believe it is on
ihe decline, however.

IMPORTANT FROM SPAIN. The brig Mon
tevdeo, Capt. Farrcn, arrived on Saturday,
in short passage from Cadz having sailed
on the 9th ultimo. We learn from Capt
Furrau, that on or about the 2Sth July, n
rising of the whole population of Cadz
took place, who loudly demanded the proc
lamation of the Constitution of 1912, and
being joined by "A newly raised regiment of
twelve hundred men strong, they went in
search of the Colonel, in command of it,
who had secroted himself, but being dis
covered, and seeing the military had made
common cause with the populace, he con,
scented to comply with their demands, and
with all the public iunctionaries, took the
Oaths required OF them. The population
of Port ST. Marys and Xerres were pre-
pairing to follow the example of that of Ca
dz.
The Queens government, we IRE told,
has become extremely unpopular, and to
such Il height has the dissatisfaction at her
course of policy arisen, that no concession
she can now make will restore her to the
public confidence. lstureZ, the new prime
minister, is loudly denounced by the public
voice. General Cordova is styled traitor,
and it is his object to deliver the English
auxiliaries under General Evans into the
hands of Don Carlos. The movement
above mentioned took place under cries of
"dcath to the Ministers" and "death to
Cordova.'
In connecting the name of Don Carlos,
with the Constitution of 1912, the people
by no means act from attachment to him,
but say they have no alternative. Indeed,
we cannot perceive how those of Cadiz
and Malaga and SaragosS,l-at which latter
places we learned by the last accounts
from England the Constitution Of 1879 had
also been proclained-can hope TO carry
out the principles Of that constitution, I'M
der chief who Ike Don Carlos has always
prof ssed principles Numerically opposite
to it. This constitution, it will be recollec-
ted, was considered by the other govern
ments of Europe so revolutionary in its
character, as to produce not only anarchy
in Spain, but in the surrounding nations,
and they therefore looked on with the ut
most compIaccncy when it was put down
by a French army under the Duke DAN
gouleme, in an almost hloodless campaign,
which ended ridiculously enough in giving
him the title of Duke of Trocadero.

MAINE ELECTION.

The result of the election in Maine has
been most unexpected. 1t is now certain
that there has been no choice in flour Con-
gressional DISTRICTS Waldo, Hancock and
Washington; Pcnobscot, Somerset, and
Cumberland Two Van Buren, and two
Harrison men have thus far been elected.
In Cumberland, it is thought that Smith
stands no chance on the second trial Inc is
an interchangeable eectioneercr and brought
out all his strength OH the first canvass
The Van Buren, Governor Dunlap has been
reelected, though by Il much diminished
majority.
The divisions among the V. b. men and
their failure to elect their candidates in
counties which they have hitherto looked
upon as certain, furnishes the best encour-
ngement to the friends of the good cause.
The party are breaking up. The collars
chaie. The people do not think it glory
enough to serve under such a chief as MIR
Van Buren,. They are not proud to wear
the livery of him of Undertook. There
are intense divisions wars and ruinors of
wars, and the party, we doubt not, will fall
nway in masses, us it has done III North
Carolina, Tennessee and Pcnnsy lvania.
The people ofNlaine have become conyin-
ced that Mr. Van Buren, is not, after all,
quite so available, as they once considered
him with all the aid of the Office holders,
backed by President Jackson, and the
Executive patronage. The Bangor Wing

EFrEcr OF CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. An
address Of the Committee Of the Society,
in England, for the diffusion of information
on the subject of Capital Punshments,
has the following very remarkable state
ment:
"The Criminal Returns prove,-that there
has been less horse stealing in the last six
years, without any execution whatever,
than IN the preceding six years, with 80
executions; - that there has been less sheep
stealing during the three years elapsed since
the abolition of capital punishment, than
during the three previous years: that there
have been fewer acts Of burglary and house
breaking in the las, three years, with only
2 executions, than in the three years ending
with 1922 when IS persons suffered death
for those offences. But, not so of other
crimes for which capital punishment still
/ continues; for they have increased"
