ABoL1snMENT OF SLAVERY IN DENMARK.
The Journal of Commerce says:--Letters
received here by the Caledonia, from unqnes-
lionable sources, announce that on the 2Sth
of July last, the King on Denmark issued a
decree declaring that all persons who should
hereafter be born in his dominoins should
be born free, and that all persons in servitude
in his dominions on the 2Sth of July last and
remaining so on the 28th ofJuly, 1859, shall
then be absolutely free, with compensation
TO the owners. HH
In The negotiation with the colonists which
preceding the issuing of this decree, he Of
fered them the alternative of three years
with compensation of $50 per head for
each slave, or twelve years without any com
pehsation, and they chose the latter.
Denmark has three small islands in the
West IndIea, viz: st. Croix, St. Thomas, and
st. Johns. St. Croix contains about 30,-
600 slaves, ST. Thomas and St. John perhaps
5000 more.

high opinion. The Russian soldier is mere
machine, and has not thought beyond his
Church and the Emperor and for. Most of the
army is'composed of serfs or slaves; and the
pay of the soldier is only about three dollars
per dnnum. He is fed upon coarse bread and
a kind of soup, and upon s,me great fete day
he is given meat as luxury. The pay of the
Russian officers is very small. A Lieutenant
gets but 500 rubles per annum, which is little
more than 800; Captain 700 rubles, and a
Colonel only 1000 rubles. You ask how they
live! The officers generally have competency
beyond their pay: some few there are who have
not, and their condition ia worse than the SOL

Goth inst. at La Hoya, were two Germans, de-
serters from our army. There are four others
among the guerillas that regret we could not
have scured. The doom of the twocaptured
will be that of traitors death. Among the
Mexicans taken, were three men of influence
and wealth. One of them is an extensive cof-
fee denler, and has large coffee plantation in
the vicinity of Jalapa. He had been treated
with the greatest kindness by the army while
garrisoning Jalapa, and the commissary of sub
sistance, Lieut.. Blair, had paid him several
thousand for coffee and other articles purchas-
ed of him for the use of the army. He always
professed the greatest friendship for the Amer
leans, received great many favors at their
hands, which he reciprocated by selling us prop
erty at the highest rates up to the last day we
were in Jalapa, and then fastened to the fast
nesses of the Perote Mountains, where he join
ed guerilla party to rob the train and cut the
threats of every American they could lay hands
on. hope he will be hung .'sans ceremonie."
Another of these taken was also from Jalapa,
and was at once recognized, by number of
our men and officers, as clerk in store at
that place. A third, who had very gentee
appearance, maintained he was Professor in
the College at Jalapa. How he came 10 be out
in the Mountains of Perote among guerlllas, is
question. Being literary character, no W.

day-but in consequence of the inefic ency of
the Qartermsster's Department, we shall not
get off before tomorrow, if we do then. We
ought to get through to Puebla in five DAYS,
and to fog all the Mexican forces besides that
they are between this and the advance of the
army, yet, five do not move with more rapid
ity than we did from Jalapa here, it will take
us from eight to ten days.
The Castle of Perote, next to that of San
Juan de Ulloa, is the strongest fertilization in
Mexico. 1t is, however, in most filthy con-
dition, and the sick are dying out of the hospi-
tails in large numbers daily. Disease is making
far greater havoc among our forces than is the
enemy. Perote is most miserable little place
even for Mexico, though the country that sur
rounds it is picturesque and grand in the ex-
IRENE. The valley of Perote is very fertile
soil, and the fields of corn, barley, and wheat
are immensely extensive. Upon the whole it
is more generally cultivated than any other
section of Mexico, for the same extent, over

WAR WASTE.

A letter from Vera Cruz, under date of 29th
May, published in the n o. Delta, thus des-
cribes the waste of public money and property
exhibited in that quarter:
"Since the surrende- of Vera Cruz, there have
>been anchored at this place, at Sacriicios, Lo-
Dos, and Anton Lizardo, vessels varying in
number from 30 to 80, in the government en-
ploy,-all chartered by the day, at prices vary
ing from $40 to 800 per day. Some of them
have been here three months, with stores-the
original cost of which one months demurrage
would pay for. You will see anchored, within
pistol shot of each other, five or six vessels,
with coal for the army-the quantity contained
in the whole six not being sufficient to ill the
hold OF any one of them. The demurrage Of
not one of these vessels is less than $50 per
day. Is it not the duty of those who have
charge of such matters here to attend to these
things? Could not the coal in the five vessels
be transferred to the one and let the four be dis
charged? This, Messrs Editors, is no over
drawn picture. 1t would take more time than
can spare at this particular moment to give a
faint idea of the immense waste, and might
add, barefaced plundering of the government
property, as carried on here. The case of the
coal vessels, as given above, is but the history
ofall store vessels employed by the government.
The captains report on their arrival, and are
getting an immense per diem for their vessels
they are satisfied to remain forever, and take
good care not to remind the quartermaster of
their existence, having once reported. The
surf-boats, which cost at least $500 apiece,
scattered along the beach for miles in extent.
Sixty-three surf-boats are biiged and strewed
along the beach in every direction. One days
attention of the quartermaster or his assistant,
and one of the hundred vessels or steamers in
the pay of the United States, would have saved
every one of them"
