sY~ While Congress and the country are alb
sorbed in the reception of KossUrH, and the con.
siderations connected with il--while the press
and the people are devotine all their attention 10
the liberated exile, the suierings of some of our
own exiles are apparently forgotten
We noticed, the other day, the fact Of the lib
Grafton of the E' glish subjects connected with
the Cuban expedition.
The latest intelligence we have had relative
to these unfortunate men, is contained ia the
following paragraph from the Boston Advertiser.
THE CUBAN PRIsOyERs-A letter from Mr.
Sprague, u. s. consul at Gibraltar, under date OF
18th ult, states that the prisoners sent from
Havana to Spain has arrived at Cadiz few DAYS
before The vessel had been ordered to Port
hlahon, to perform quarantine, and would pro
coed thence to Ceuta, where the prisoners will
be conveyed, to pass the term OF their confine
ment. It's to be hoped, that before their arriva
in Africa, these misguided men may experience,
the clemency of the Spanish government.

From the Wilmington (yS. CO. Herald.
The Wilmington and Manchester Road.

The report of Mr.. Fleming, the resident engi-
neer Of this road. informs the public Of the oper-
atoms at the other end We learn that there
have been some recent transactions touching the
final location Of the road here. At the term OF
the county court OF Brunswick, which was held
this week, the directors of the company made,
we understand, two propositions for the sanction
Of the court. One was TO run the track Of the
road over the causeway, directly opposite the
town, and likewise to construct similar track
parallel Herewith, for the use and accommodation
Of the public. The other was to build double
bridge over Brunswick river, one portion Of which
was for the use Of the public, and the main track
then to dlverge from the causeway, leaving that
as before for the common travel, and run suif-
cient distance TO the left to prevent annoyance or
obstruction. Both these propositions were reec-
ted The court then requested TO make aD
offer to the company, and thereupon proposed
that the causeway should be surrendered for the
use of the road, provided the company would
run cars for the transportation Of vehicles,
passengers, &c, from each end, every half hour,
from da ygbt hll nine at night. This proposition
was considered by the directors, at a meeting
held this week, and rejected for the reasons that
the annual expense attending it's execution would
reach probably $4,000, and the arrangement like
wise clogged with these conditions, would mill.
tate against the future sale of the ferry, should il
be deemed advisable 10 effect transfer.
| The final location Of the road leading TO the ter
minus opposite the town of Wilmington, AT III,
end OF the ferry has been eh by the directors, Il
the decision o. the president and engineer. They
will in all probability, decide in the course of tn,
next ten or twelve days, when immediate steps
will be taken to prosecute the work.
Information has been received that there are tive
cargoes of iron, ready for shipment in England
and il is expected that the road at Brunswicl
River, will be ready to receive it on its arrya
here.
After the annoying difficulties on the other sid
Of the river smoothed away, nothing will pre-
vent the vigorous prosecution of the work
The southern press. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1850-1852, 1851-12-13

We find in the correspondence Of the New
York Post, this merited eulogium on native
artist, of whom his State and the country ma,
well be proud
II will be gratifying to the readers of the
EUening Posi-, to know that the equestrian
statue of Jackson, which has been topic OF
Washington conversation for some two wears
past, will soon be finished and submitted TO the
admiration OF the public. Mr.. Mills, the artist
commences melting for the body of the horse
to-day, and during the current week, e-half of
the body will probably be cast All but the
body is now ready | have seen the head of
the hero and the head of the horse, and it is safe
to say that the horse will divide the admiration
OF the public, with his rider.
1t is generally conceded here that there is no
finer horses head upon any equestrian statue in
the world
The Generals head is very characteristics, and
by his most intimate friends here, especially by
Mr. Blair, is esteemed satisfactory. When raised
upon the horse, the aggregate elevation will be
between fifteen and sixteen feet 1t is TO be
placed in tho centre Of the Park, in the rear of
the Presidents house
AS Americans never do anything precisely as
other people do, your readers may be curious to
know what novelty has been introduced into The
first piece of bronze casting of any size ever
made in this country, and into The first equestrian
Statue ever cast on Ibis continent
This will be the first and the only equestrian
statue in the world which is supported solely by
the hind legs of the horse. In most cases, one
of the fore legs has rest. The famous statue
of Peter the Great comes nearest to M absolute
poise, but that is supported by the tail, which
gives the horse a constrained appearance, as if
he were trying to pull himself away
What adds somewhat to the interest which
this work is naturally calculated to inspire, is the
fact that two years ago, Mr.. Mills was an OBJ
scure worker in plaster in South Carolina, with
out name or experience He never saw an
equestrian statue made in his life he never be-
fore attempted piece Of cas.ing, and has con
siructed his own furnaces and machinery without
the models, or even the advice Of any master Of
the art. This entire self-reliance when it leads
to such success, is evidence Of genius.

SALT BUSINESS FOR l85l.--The Syrac Ist
Journal says the salt business for the present
year is now closed, and no more salt will b.
made for four months to come, according tc
the laws of the State. The quantity manufac
tured has been about the same as last year, from
Al to 100000 of bushels. Wood has sole
from 22s. to 32s. per cord, and averaged, nc
doubt, upwards of So, against 24s. and under
last season. Barrels, also, have brought from
% to 32s, averaging from 25 to 26e Last
year, they only averaged about 23e.
The quantity of salt on hand is small and that
will be to the advantage of the manufacturers
another season.
