longing to this city was, on Friday
night, captured, at Schlosser while
moored in an AMERICAN PoRT /; and
the inmates, many of them visitors on

How many were butchered is not

brought to this city this evening. Tho
excitement here is indescribable. We

From the Cincinnati Republican.
OF tn. democratic papers, which came out in opposi-
ton to the Subtreasury scheme, this journal was among
the first that opposed the upon the principle
that it anti-democratic We also opposed it as
pregnant with mischief to the best interests OF
the country. We predicted the evil Consequences
which would result TO the democratic party by peril
nacous adherence, the part of the administration
the unpopular scheme We said that il would not only
break down the administration, but it would prove the
political grave of the friends and adherents Of Mr. Van
Buren,. We implored, we invoked, its abandonment.
But the more warned, the more we imrlored, and
deprecated, the more we were abused, pillfed and
PRESCRIBED.
The result has clearly shown that our warnings,
though anheeded, not i'll timed, and that our APP
prehensions were not unfounded The disasters which
predicted are upon us. The administration is in a
minority in one branch Of the National Legislature,
while inthe other branch, its most prominent and dis
ngushed supporters are, by one, coming out in
buke Of its policy The Sub Treasury scheme is dead!
h~ p-s.psas Of IL. becoming law, longer cxsts,
l he Specie Circular too, which SO many Of Mr. Van
Brens friends urged him TO repeal before the suspen-
sion Of specie payments is about TO be rescinded by
the votes Of the very who most adhered to the hard
money policy in a word, the principles Of democra-
tic Conservatism, Insignificant their influence
presented to be- have prevailed -adicalism. The
policy Of the administration is becoming more and more
in conformity with the policy OF the Conservatives The
cry against the banks is dying away The credit
system is no longer denounced. We hear moro of
golden hunbugs." The Government itself has re-
sorted to paper issue, to prevent stoppage of its
wheels. ss.a
We wrestled hard with the spirit Of radcasm. 1t is
now Dead beyond resusctation. We will not exult
its downfall though it the very incarnation
Of the evil one himself. The democratic party will be
all the healthier now that it is purged Of this excre
scence. She will again come out in her strength, as
was her wont in her palmiest days.

Public fruction--When the city Of Leyden, in
common with all the Low Countries had fought through
the bloodiest and perhaps the nobest struggle for
liberty on record, the great and good William Of Orange
offered her immunity from taxes, that she might re-
cover from her bitter suerings, and be rewarded for
the important services which she had rendered to the
sacred cause. Leyden, however, declined the offer
and asked for nothing but the privilege OF erecting
university within her walls, the best reward for more
than human endurance and perseverance This simple
fact is precious gem to the student OF history; for u
the protection Of the and sciences reflect great honor
upon monarch, though it be for vani,ys sake, the os
terinp care with which communities republics watch
over the cultivation Of knowledge and the other emo
bling pursuits Of man, sheds still greater ustre upon
themselves Nowhere in the whole range OF history,
