WHITE SLAvEs-"The Russian Peasant,
as he is falsely called, says letter from ST.
Petersburg, is bought and sold with the land
on which he lives, and is being in no way
superior to Monsieur Coffee, although his skin
is white or rather brownsh, with boards that
were never visited by that companion of civil-
zation, the razor his person is the impersona-
ton Of filth, and his countenance the mirror of
ignorance. The depression and poverty of
these poor creatures is really pitiabe, and next
to some parts of Ireland. must give 10 this
class of humanity the unenviabe position Of
the most miserable part of the great family to
which we all belong
An association for the emancipation of forty
millions of serfs in Russia has never been
thought of in Great Britain or America, and
the philanthrophy of both countries is solely
and intensely directed toward three millions
and half of American negros, whose cond-
ton, as it regards intelligence and comfort, is
at least equal to that of the white bondsmen of
of Russia. The misfortune of the serfs is in
their white color. If they had been black, all
Europe would have resounded with denuncia-
tions of Russian cruelty-Proriddnce Herald.

eE The Tribune, following in the wake of
several of its wing contemporaries, is exceeding
ly amused with a stolen correspondence, be-
tween some members of the democratic party,
in regard to their preferences for the next can

swindles so successfully carried on by wings
in offices of trust at Washington.

Capt. Tracey Hughes. visited our city on Fri
day last. They numbered about fifty, neatly
uniformed, and were accompanied by the saco
Brass Band. Upon their arrival at the depot.
they were received by Kennebec. Co., No. l,
and escorted through the principal streets, to
the music of the Arrowsic Band, to Young's
Hall, where they partook of a collation. pro-
vided for them by the Kennebec Co. At three
O'Clock, they sat down to bountiful repast,
got up as only "Uncle Tim" can do it-at
the Sagadahock House. In the evening, they
became the guests of the Torrent Co., and par
took of collation. at their engine house, where
mir,h and good cheer prevailed.
On Saturday morning, the Torrents-accom-
panied by the Bath Brass Band-escorted them
to the depot on their departure.
Our citizens are all loud in praise of the fine
appearance and orderly department of the Nj
agara Co., during their stay in our city. and
the expression is general that finer looking

may deprive the wings of holding after us,

the latter part of June. You will please to act
for me as to time. f. . -

you say Of Texas. She is a glorious State,

badly in point of true refinement, or true
humanitary feeling, with anything our

manners in his book.

Democracy and its Critics.

Mr.. XAvIER MARINER, gentleman OF
aIistocratic tastes, came to this country
Immediately after the February revOlu-
ton, disguised with the introduction Of
Democracy into France, and determined
to investigate its practical results In Ame-
RIGA. He has published his book in Paris,
but from long review of it in the Jour
nal des Debats we fear that NJ. Mariner
has not done the amplest justice to the
merits of his subject. The Democracy of
the United States he detests from the bot
tom of his heart, all the more because
France seems destined 10 initiate its insti-
tutions; and be finds nothing to admire
but the relics Of French occupation and
French population in Canada and Loui-
siana. He repeats all Mrs. Trolope's cri-
ticisms, only intensifying their force, show
ing up our, faults without mercy indeed,
and sometimes with considerable point.
He is struck by the egotism Of our people,
the coarse neglect Of others, the imperti-
nent vanity. the greed Of gain, the lust Of
appropriation and monopoly which he TO
CARDS as our striking characteristics. At
table he finds US perfect hogs, and hi. de-
scription of what he saw on North Ri
yer steamboat seems TO justify the juig-
ment from his point Of view. The pyra-
mids of meat, butter and vegetables which
the passengers piled up on their plates
first of all; aud then the religious and
even frsnzied devotion with which they
set TO work demolishipg snd devouring
these monsuous structures-each cOnrirs
