'CoTToS rRoN AFRIcA.-The London correspond
cnt Of the Philadelphia North american writes that
a small lot of cotton from Africa has Just been
ccved by the Manchester Chamber Of Commerce,
lation on the part Of the manufacturers, who are
anticipating large supplies Of this important article
Of trade from Africa. IL appears that Duncan, the
celebrated traveller just before his DEATH obtained
from the "sable monarch Of Dahomey" speci-
men Of "thc native indigenous cotton" In the
state in which the natives had gathered IL from the
pods, MIR. Duncan packed ten pounds in ksg, and
shipped II in a French vessel going TO France. II
arrived in Manchester only last week, and the spe-
cimen Is said 10 exhibit two excellent qualities II
lie Of clear good color, and its staple is fine. II
is be ginned and then exhibited 10 the trade IL
lie believed that In few years the west coast Of Az

material Of this great staple.
So mote il be. The world is wide enough for us
The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1850-05-20

Some interesting facts in relation 10 the slave
trade were elected during recent debate in the Br-
fish House Of Commons One member stated that
a man could be bought for twenty pounds, con-
sold on his arrival for one hundred pounds In
lB43, the export had diminished TO 10000 per an
mum, while in l647 it had increased to 81 900.
Mr. HUT stated that the importation Of slaves in
TO Brazil in lS4S exceeded the demand by eight
thousand. Also, that slaves cheaper in Brazil
now than when the trade restricted The
enormous sum of $l20, 000, 900 has been expended
by Great Britain in effort TO abolish the slave
trade; the work is now continued at cost of
So 500, 900 per annum. The results, nevertheless,
are most discouraging.
The horrors of the traffic cannot be described in
language sufficiently forcblc. Some of the scenes
have been truly appalling. Hundreds of the
wretched victims have been smothered to death in
the narrow pens Of small vessels, while in other
cases, other hundreds have been hurried over
boardthe slave dealers thus endeavoring TO escape
the penalty of their infamous crimes, when pur-
sued and captured by a cruiser The motive that
prompted the combined efforts of Great Britain,
France, and the United States, to blockade the At
rcan coast and thus to check the trade, does honor
to the nobest feelings of nature; and although
the enterprise has failed to very considerable ex
which its friends resist its abandonment. II aban-
doned, we trust that some other plan will be sub
stituted These three great nations should not per-
NIT themselves to grow weary or impatient in a
work Of such true humanity, simply because Of the
comparative failure of their first comprehensive
plan. The fact stated by Mr.. Forbes, that during
the last twenty years, no less than ,795, 900
thousands who persisted on the way, is well calcu
lated to renvgorate the energies Of all who feel
interest in the holy cause Of universal freedom!

have caused it to linger in the two houses
of Congress, and it has yet received the
action of neither. The PRESIDENT, how
ever, performed his duty, as to the mea-
sure, in recommending it early to the con-
sideration of Congress. But an impress
sion seems to have got abroad, that he now
waivers, OF has wavered, in his opinion on
this subject. This, we are well advised,
is unfounded in fact. He remains, and it
is proper the public should understand that
he remains, firm in the opinion that the
course of policy which he recommended
was, and is, under all the circumstances,
the best practicable, and that he has never
for moment changed or modified that
opinion The misapprehension on this sub
ject, so far as it exists, ought to be cor
rected, so that the PRESIDENTS official
recommendation may not, in effect, be
withdrawn, OF modified for him, without
his authority.

lSAuoURArIos or Gov. HuBnARD.-On Monday
last the members of the two Houses Of the Lcgisla-
ture assembled in the Representatives Hall, where
the qualifying oaths were administered TO Gov.
Hubbard by the President Of the Senate. The day
was fine one, and large numbers Of citizens
were in attendance TO witness the ceremony. The
Governor was attended by ex- Governor Dana, the
Council, Heads of Departments, preceded by the
sheriff Of Kennebec. The solemn obligations 10
support the Constitution Of the United States and of
this State and TO discharge faithfully the other du-
ties Of chief magistrate, taken in a manner,
and with bearing, consistent with the dignity Of
the occasion, indicating profound sense Of the
true nature Of those obligations and Of the duties
they enjon
In coniding TO his hands the important trust
which he has assumed the people OF this State had
the assurance, drawn from his high character and
attainmcnts that he would administer the govern
ment 80 as TO secure their best interests. We have
every confidence that their expectations will be
realized. We look for independent, dignifcd,
and firm discharge OF executive responsibilities,
marked by rigid Observance of republican princi.
pies, and an intelligent regard for the public wants.

MILWAUKEE, AND MISSISSIPPI RAMRoAD.-The
Milwaukee Sentinel says that the president Of this
corporation, Hon. Byron Kilborn, is shortly to
make tour to the eastward for the purpose of rails
ing the necessary funds for the purchase Of the iron
for the track of this road II is not the intention Of
Mr.. Kilborn to induce eastern capitalists to sub
scribe for stock, but rather TO loan the money
the most ample security. This security is to be in
waukic, and on the farms along the road volunta-
rily given by stockholders for the purpose, at
half the appraised value of the lots, buildings, and
farms described therein. These securities TO be
given for term of ten years. and at a rate of in
erest not exceeding ten per cent. The interest is
to be payable in the city Of New York. and in each
the certificate of the register is to accompany
the security that the title is perfect and the prop
erty unencumbered. In addition TO this, the presi-
dent and secretary OF the company will give the
bond of the company in each case if required, guar
anything the payment Of interest, and of any costs
accruing in the collecting of the mortgages.

Expedition 70 Cuba.

Within the last few days, information
has been received by the Government,
rendering it most probable that a military
organization has been set on foot, within
the United States, formidable both in
numbers and from the character of those
engaged in it, for the purpose of attack
ing the island of Cuba and revolutionizing
the Government.
We are informed that the President of
the United States, Immediately upon the
receipt of the information, directed orders
to be issued for the vessels of the home
squadron, as also for the steamer Saranac,
and frigate Congress, to proceed forthwith
to the island of Cuba, for the purpose Of
ascertaining whether any military force,
organized in the United States, was pro-
ceeding from thence to Cuba for the pur-
pose of invading that island and revolu-
tionizing the Government; with express
instructions, in the event of such being
the case, to prevent the landing of any
such force, or the carrying out Of any such
expedition or enterprise; and with further
instructions, in the event of landing
having been effected, to prevent the land
ing of any reinforcement, or of any arms
or provisions under the American flag, in
tended for such expedition or enterprise.
In obedience to these orders, we under
stand that the steamer Saranac proceeded
to sea on Saturday last, and will probably
reach Cuba by Thursday next, where it is
expected she will meet the Germantown,
the Albany, and the Vixen.
1t is confidently expected that the whole
naval force ordered thither will reach the
island of Cuba before any considerable
number of those engaged in the enterprise
can possibly have effected a landing, and
thus prevent violation of our treaty OBJ
legations of amity and peace with Spain.

The admission of California into the
Union as sovereign State, and the course
to be pursued as to New Mexico and Utah,
more than any other measures now occupy
the time of Congress and the attention of
the public.
Pursuant to the provision of the Consti-
tuition which requires the PRESIDENT from
time 10 time to recommend to Congress
such measures as he may deem necessary
and expedient, he, in his message of the
21st of January last, recommended the
admission of California into the Union as
separate and independent measure, leav-
ing the residue Of our newly acquired Ter
ritories subject to existing laws, till they
should respectively form State govern
ments and apply for admission also.
II could not be expected that all parties,
in all sections Of the country, should unite
on this, or any other measure touching
the subject; yet the PREsrDENT's recon-
mendation was at once received with favor
by large proportion of the people, and is,
il is believed, still generally acceptable to
them.
But difference Of opinion as to the true
line Of policy-on kindred measures, and a
difference also as to the mode of carrying
out the affirmative measure recommended
by the PRESIDENT, and which is very gen
orally admitted TO be expedient and right,

they sometimes open FIVE hundred gallons day,
