FROM CHINA correspondent Of the Boston
Advertiser, writing from the Us Ship Constel-
lation, lying in Manila Bay on the 9th of May,
says that Just before leaving Macao Roads the
Commander sent communication to the Vice
roy Of Canton relative to American affairs. The
Lieutenant by whom 1t was borne was treated
with courtesy, though not received in person.
The Viceroy is said to appear to be of opinion
that Americans will enjoy the same privileges as
other foreigners, without the necessity of treaty
stlpuations, and reierates the assurance that the
claims of our citizens for damages sustained in
the December not at Canton shall be promptly
paid at the stipulated time.
The cholera has prevailed at Manila and four
cases have occurred on board the Constellation,
two Of them proving fatal The vessel was about
to get to sea and to sail for home. With regard
to the probable admission of other nations to the
same commercial privileges granted to Great
Britain the writer saws

Mayville yesterday to nominate Ticket Tor the
approaching Election Every town was fully
represented-one (ClymeD unhapply by two
Delegations. A large number OF citizens were
also present. embracing body of substantial
veomanry which would have done credit to any
County. Great interest was naturally felt IN the
selection of candidates, since Wing nomination
here is equivalent to an election. The contest
between the friends of the rival competitors was
ardent, but tempered by perfect good feeling.
The Convention was called to order soon after

AMERICAN HEMP

An English merchant, who lately trav.
elled in the United States, thus speaks of
the growth of hemp:
4" saw in the United States navy ward
stores, and the engines and machinery for
spinning or twisting cables, which is f:f
superior TO any thing of the kind | have
ever seen in England. The Americans
are growing their own hemp on the Missis-
siPpi, and the foremen of the ropewalks
say that it is much superior and will stand
| a much higher test than the Russian hemp.
and that the cables they make are much
better and stronger than the best they can
get from England"
We have long been in the practice of
sending millions of dollars annually TO paw
the owners of Russian surfs for hemp, while
we had any quantity of vacant lands adj
mirably adapted TO its culture. Mr.. Van
Buren, contends that it is far better 10
compel all cultivators of the soil in this
country to raise hemp at such prices fol
labor as are paid TO the slaves of Russia,
than to protect them, so that thew can
grow hemp in the United States, and sell
1t at prices, which will give them forty
cents day for their honest toll.
Loco Focoism takes the compensation
given to the serfs of Russia, as the stand
ard of comfort and wages, to which all
laboring men in Am erica must be reduced
for the benefit of favored few, who have
gold to SELL and labor TO buy. 1t aims, tc
make the poor poorer and the rich richer
BY taking the minimum price of foreign
labor as the measure of value of all our
products of labor in the United States.--
The toiling millions that grow hemp in
Russia are obbed OF fair recompense for
the service per formed. Mr.. Van Buren,
asserts. practically, that it is better for the
American Government TO obj ain the hemp
it needs for lis Navy, by participating in
the benefits of goods stolen from human
bone and muscle in foreign nations. than
10 pay fair prices for Am erican labor to
produce the same goods.

Political Abolition. This is the title Of

of slavery, and were engaged in benevolent
schemes 10 abate them; that many of them
entertained with favor, the purpose of Il

that numerous conscientious persons were
providing for the emancipation of their
own slaves that entire freedom Of speech
and of the press, on the subject, was iole-
rated that free colored people 10 the slave
States, were generally treated with indui-
gence, and encouraged and that this state
of feeling had made visible progress, from
the organization Of our government, down
to the outbreak of political abolition in The
free States. There was a fair prospect,
