Nashville Conventions at the SOUTH and .4bo-
ition ercitenlents at the NORTH How little do
they affect the onward course of this great REPuB-
LIc Eddies and ripples in the tide-how soon
they are absorbed in the mighty current which,
knowing no retiring ebb," still keeps due on, en-
larging as it goes, strong without rage, without
overlooking FULL and bearing upon its bosom a
destiny in comparison with which the fortunes Of
CESAR are no more than the theme of a nursery
tale!
With whatever freedom or fippancy men in any
part of the Union politicians, enthusiasts fanatics,
or other, may indulge in talk concerning the unity
of this REPUBLIC and the facility with which may
be dsintegrated, they would be very apt, if they
should embody their ideas and purposes of dissolu.
ton in an overt act, to find themselves confronted
by of the sternest and most terrific realities that
ever frowned upon treason In the mean time the
talk does little harm.-Baho. american.

the information which the Government had received that in

pears that Mr. Neighbours has thus gone, actually

held by the United Sates and in my opinion ought

by some competent authority"
It will be observed that the whole question here, with all its
Incidents collateral adventurous, artificial is brought to
simple point. And it is practical point emnently

TEXAS AND NEW MEXICO.

Major NEIeHBoRs, the Texan Commissioner to
Santa Fe, who, according to the last advices from
Texas, had encountered much opposition at Santa
Fe to the establishment of Texan authority over
that region of country, has returned to Austin
(Texas) without having accomplished the object OF
his mission. So says Telegraph despatch from
New Orleans; which also states that Col. Mum
ROE, the Military Governor Of New Mexico, has
issued proclamation directing the election OF
Delegates TO Convention, to be held for the for
nation OF State Constitution and Government Tor
the Territory. The Convention was to be held at
Santa Fe on the 10Th ultimo. If such procla-
nation has been issued by Col. MuNRoE, it has,
no doubt, been done at the instance of the people,
who, as previous accounts have informed US, have
been in state Of anxiety and excitement on this
subject for some time past, which was probably
increased by the presence Of the Texan Commits
sloner. ..-

CUBA--WAR WITH SPAIN.-The failure of the
expedition against Cuba has been great disap-
pointment to those persons in the United States
who anticipated participation in the spoils of tina,
fertile and wealthy island; and it is with difficulty
thew can be induced to abandon the idea of its
conquest and annexation. All means are resorted
to by them to irritate the public mind against the
authorities of Cuba and of Spain. AT one time
the cruelties said to be practised Americans in
Cuba are dwelt on !; then we have acts Of indgnity
to our Consuls, the American flag, &c. Seeing
that the island is not to be conquered by piratical
expeditions, it is sought to involve our country in
war with Spain, so that the forces Of the nation
may be brough, to aid the design.
Letter writers produced considerable excitement
through the papers of Monday, by their positive
assertions that the prisoners taken on the Island Of
Contoy were to be punished capitally, &C., and
specula.ons were INDUCED in as to the effect Of
This conduct on the relations between Spain and
the United States. In some of the papers it was
announced that war between the two Powers was
inevitable. Bat fortunately for the peace Of the
world, all the reports were proved to be withou
foundation. the authorities of Cuba having promptly
yielded to the demand of our Government for the
release of said prisoners. Clipper.
