to hold State Convention here this win

ssid that the present iDc"nbeat will de

learn that Gov Corwin is considered
good enough aboliiioaist, but as he will
decline a denomination, the abolijionisis
must nominate another. Governor Cor

TIE AMISTAD AFRICANS.

A letter from Port Principe, Cuba, to a
gentleman in New Y DIRK, dated Nov. l6:h,
says:
"I'he Captain General of the Island has
demanded of Mr.. Carrias, all his accounts,
including interest, damages, Sc, of the
negroes of the Amistad, and insists Il at
Mr. Carries shall be paid the whole of it.
And it appears that the Captain General
intends to deduct the amount from S7O,-
600, which the Spanish Government has
to pay to the United States"
That is very possible. And if it is just,
we hope the United States will immedi-
ately pay the demand. But if it is not Just,
we trust that the United States will ex-
press her feelings promptly. 1t is bad
enough to be troubled from the other side
of the Atlantic u. S. Gaz.
