tons are in conformity with the existing treaty,
gon no more than the same measure Of protec-
ton which has long since been extended to
British subjects in that territory.
The state Of our relations with Mexico is
still in an unsettled condition. Since the
meeting of Congress another revolution has
taken place IN that country, by which the
government has passed INTO the hands of new
rulers. This event has procrastinated, and
may possibly defeat, the settlement of the
differences between the United States and that
country. The minister of the United States to
Mexico, at the date Of the last advices, had
not been received by the existing authorities.
Demonstrations Of character hostile to the
United Safes continue to be made in Mexico,
which has rendered it proper, in my Judgment,
to keep nearly two-thirds Of our army on our
southwestern frontier. In doing this, many Of
the regular military posts have been reduced to
small force, inadequate to their defence
should an emergency arise.
In view of these circumstances" it is my
judgment" that ian increase of our naval
and military force is at this time required" to
place the country in a suitable state of defence
At the same time, it IS my settled purpose to
pursue such course of policy as may be best
calculated to preserve, both with Great Britain
and Mexico, an honorable peace; which moth
ing will SO effectually promote as unanmity in
our councils, and firm maintenance of all our
just rights. JAMES X. POLK.

IMPORTANT FROM ST.. DoMMGo. By the
arrival of the brig Almatia, at New York, from
St. Domingo city, we learn that a Spanish
fleet, consisting of two steamers, trigate, and
two schooners- of-war, had arrived from Porto
Rico, and remained at St. Domingo SO hours,
whence they sailed for Cape Haytien, to de-
mand $685. for insults offered to the Spanish
flag, and for the Imprisonment of some Spanish
subjects. dissatisfaction was not given, they
were to attack Cape Haytien immediately
The Spaniards were in arms, waiting for an at
tack from the Haytiens. The steam ship
ARIEL, which sailed from Boston for the Hay
ten government, had arrived at St. Thomas.
No news of her arrival at Cape Hayten was
known at st. Domingo. Another arrival
from Cape Hayti, brings information that the
people of St. Marks and Port au Prince had
revolted and refused to march against the
Dominicans. They had chosen at. Port au
Prince new President, General Roshere, and
he was marching against the former President
1t was thought at the Cape that General Pero
would resign the Presidency and retire to pri-
vate life

THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 26, 1916.

AN UNPARALLELED CASE. A suit at law
has been commenced within Il short time in N
York city, which has brought to light the con-
duct of a fiend, which, for baseness and turpi-
tude, can find no parallel, we should think, in
the civilized world. The Express relates the
particulars as follows:
1.-THE individual to W HON we have alluded
is native of Spain or Cuba. He married a
young girl few years ago at Havana, by whom
he had daughter. He then seduced the mo-
ther of his wife, was arrested for the crime,
tried and condemned to transportation. The
vessel, on board of which he was placed, with
other convicts, was wrecked in Il storm OIL our
coast, by which he escaped and made his way
to New York. After being some time here he
sent to Havana for his wife and child, who in
due time arrived, being accompanied by his
wife's sister. Subsequently he seduced the sis
ter, who had offspring by him-and now comes
the dreadful point of our story. When his own
child had arrived at the age of fourteen or tif-
teen years, she also became the object of his
hellish lust, and proved enciente by him. The
authorities hearing of the matter began to stir
in the business, when he thought it best to fly,
which he did, carrying off his own daughter as
mistress, and leaving his wife here with one
or two other children.

THE WORSHIP OF NATURE.
BY JOHN G, WHITTIER.

BY JOHN G, WHITTIER.
The ocean l0oketh up to heaven,
AS 'twefe living thing;
The homage ofits waves is given
In ceaseiess worshipping.
They kneel upon the sloping sand,
As bends the human knee,
A beautiful and tireless band,
The priesthood of the sea!
They pour the gIittering treasures out
Which i'll the deep have birth,
And chaunt their awful hymns about
The watching hills of earth.
The green earth sends it's incense up
From every mountain shrine,
From every flower and dewy cup
That greeteth the sunshine.
The mists are lifted from the rills,
Like the white wing of prayer;
They lean above the ancient hills,
As doing homage there
The forest-tops are loWly cast
O'eT breezy hill and glen,
As ifa prayerful spirit pass
On nature as on men.
The clouds weep DER the fallen world
Fen as repentant love;
Ere, TO the blessed breeze unfurl'd,
They fade in light above.
The sky is as a temples arch,
The blue and wavy air
Is glorious with the spirit march
OF messengers at prayer.
The gentle moon, the kidding sun,
The many stars are given,
As shIines to burn earlh's incense on,
The altar fires OF Heaven

FROM MATAMoRAs -Rumors Contradicted.-
Captain Place, of the schr Equity, from Mata-
moras, which place!he left on the It'll inst.
has arrived at N. Orleans, and contradcts the
report brought from that place by vessel at
Galveston, that Mr.. Schatzell, the American
Consul, had been thrown into prison. Letters
have also been received here, says the Bulletin,
from Mr.. s., in one of which he states that the
appearance Of the U. s. brig Porpoise on the
coast (she touched at the mouth Of the Rio
Grande, on the 9Th inst gave rise to many
rumors, among them that of his imprisonment,
which doubtless was the basis of the report
made by the Captain of the vessel at Calves
ton. In letter dated the 23rd ut., Mr.. S..
says it was rumored that Mr.. Slidell had been
invited back to the city of Mexico, bnt in let
ter of the 10th inst, he says there was no con-
3rmation of this.
Capt Place says the army at Matamoras is
not larger than it has been for some time past,
there being only from IL to 1900 men there,
under the command of Gen. Mejia. The Eqi-
ty was boarded by two officers OF the Porpose
on the 9th inst; but Capt Place learned moth
ing from them as TO the nature of their mission.
