4 MANS REQUIREMENTS,
Love me, sweet, with all thou art,
Feeling, thinking, seeing
Love me in the highest part,
Love me in full being.
Love me with thine open youth
In its frank surrender
With the voWing of thy mouth,
With its silence tender.
Love me with thine azure eyes,
Made for earnest granting!
Taking colour from the skies,
Can Heavens truth be wanting?
Love me with their lids, that fall
Snowflake at first meeting;
Love me with thine heart, that all
The neighbors then see beating.
Love me with thine hand stretched out
Freely-open-minded;
Love me with thy lettering foot
Hearing n behind it.
Love me width thy voice, that turns
Sudden faint above me ;
Love me with thy blush that burns
When l murmer, "Love ME
Love me with thy thinking SOUL
Break it to love-sighing
Love me with thy thoughts that roll
On through living-dying.
Love me in thy gorgeous airs,
When the world has crowned thee
Loving me knseling at thy prayers,
With the angels round thee.
Love me pure as nurses do,
Up the woodlands shady
Love me guilty, fast and true,
AS a winsome lady.
Through all hopes that keep us brave,
Further off or higher,
Love me for the house and grave
And for something higher.
Thus, if thou wilt prove me dear,
Woman's love no fable,
| will love thee-hal-a-year-
As a man is able.

possible that England under such circumstances,
could avoid being drawn into war with the
United States What a spectacle then would be
presented to the world England, monarchy,
resisting by force of arms, the attempt Of the
United States, the Model Republic, to re-en-
act the curse Of Slsvery-re-ensct 1t, too, in
q country not belonging to them, owing them
no allegiance, but the possession and dependency
Of Power, to which 1t was bound in covenant
of peace, and which had given 1t not the slightest
provocation
American Power can defend itself against
world in arms. In any righteous enterprise, we
believe it unconquerable; but in such an enter
prise as that, carried against such odds, igno-
minious defeat would be the inevitable result.
With the loss Of its good name and the sympathy
of mankind, the prestige Of success would depart
and. in the hour of its darkness, fre-side Toe
might be emboldened to defy its vengeance
Considerations of this kind would restrain our
Government from the policy suggested by the
Southern Press Southern institutions are not to
be secured by a criminal crusade in behalf OF
Slavery in other lsnds-by plunging the Federal
Government in a servie war with the subjects of
Foreign Power. Could Cuba be annexed peace
ably, without domestic violence or foreign war,
the South would gain vast political power; but
such annexation is out of the question The at
tempt, if persisted in and carried to point dan
gerous to Spanish sscendency, will inevitably
lead to seryile war in Cuba, and the ultimate
enfranchisement Of its black population. Such
result might react upon the institutions OF this
country in a way which no humane man can con-
template thout a shudder.

and through the press in the face Of the most for
midable opposition from the most prominent pro-
slavery men in the State show clearly that Ken
lucky is on the high road to freedom.
For q solution of the causes that led to the
revolution In Ashland district, We think the
Wings who pandered TO the pro-slavery feeling in
Fayette so far as TO unite on John G. Breckin-
ridge In 1s49, as a pro-slavcry candidate, when
they had an overwhelming majority Of Wings and
could have elected whom they pleased, should be
entitled to their full share Of credit and also the
assumed leaders Of the Wing party who did every
thing in their power to dscredit Gen Combs at the
opening of the canvass, with view of suppanting
him, should console themselves with the reflection,
that they afterwards used their best efforts to
unite the Wing party on him but in vain"
IL such is the results of the first waking Of the
spirit of Emancipation in political way, what
may not be expected hereafter MIR. Clay, it is
stated, received about three thousand votes This
is far more than we expected. The first Liberty
vote in Ohio was but nine huDdred-but in lS4s,
it reached some thirty thousand and more. LIT
Mr.. Clay persevere. He has hit upon the only
efectual plan for carrying out his principles and
he is the man to carry it through.

THE NATIONAL HONOR.

ave understand that the Secretary Of the
Treasury received yesterday telegrsphic des-
spatches from the Collector at New Orleans,
stating that 1000 men were waiting there ready
to embark for Cuba. Without being apprized Of
the nature of the reply vouchsafed 10 the Collec-
tor in these premises, we have reason to believe
that he was duly informed that, If the said 2 900
men should embark under the circumstances GER
tain officers Of the United States would be held
responsible We are inclined to believe that it
would not be amiss to test the truth of Mr. Rhetps
assertion in the Senate Of the United States, that
it is impossible in this country to enforce any law
in a neighborhood where any portion OF the peo-
pie were opposed TO its execution. "-Rspubhe
The Republic talks ominously; but what will
the two thousand Cuban sdventurers care, when
they have sailed, whether the Collector shall be
held responsible or not 1t is the duty Of the Ad
ministrstion to stop these armed expeditions, and
hold it's officers responsible, too. Dismissal OF a
collector from Office will hardly make stonement
to friendly nation for permitting an invading
| force from our shores to make descent upon her
colony.
We hope the Despotism Of Spain in Cuba may
be verthrown-overthrown by the citizens Of the
island, with such aid from abroad as may be law
fully extended to them. But our nation has a
duty to perform to Spain, to itself, to the world
1t is bound to respect the sovereignty Of Spsin-s
Power with which it is at peace, and which has
given it no provocation. 1t Is bound to fulfil it,
treaty obligations, and thus vindcste its own good
faith 1t is bound to respect the opinions Of the
world and not give it ground for believing it reck
less of the rights of other nations.
If the People Of the United States have resolved
to turn Propagandsts, to abandon their time hon
Ored policy Of abstaining from interference with
the concerns or quarrels Of other nations, to en-
bark in bloody crusade against Despotism and
in favor of Liberty everywhere, let them 60 tc
work honorably. Let the Government give notice
of the termination of all its treaties Of Amity
Let it proclaim war against Europe, and announce
its purpose to break every yoke, set free every
captive and establish by force of arms Liberty as
the Supreme Law Of all nations II unprepsred

ELECTION In KENTUCKY.

The defeat of the Wing candidate for Governor,
in kentucky, and the election Of the Wing candi-
date for Lieutenant Governor by six or seven
thousand majority, has given rise to some specu-
lation. The following article from the George
torn Ky Herald, may throw light upon this
strange result
The writer says
"There are those who regard it as the result
of the advancement Of Democratic principles in
the State but we incline to the opinion that il is
properly attributable to other causes
"The avowed and public sentiments Of MIR
Dixon, on the subject of slavery, do not suit the
people of Kentucky for though they are not pre-
pared to act on the subject Of emancipation, yet
they are not prepared TO swallow the doctrine,
that the institution of negro slavery s before and
above the Constitution. They cannot be brought
to sanction the doctrine, that the right to own,
hold and acquire property in human flesh and
bone, and to doom to perpetua. slavery, men,
women, and children, without recognising In them
selves the right to check and stop it's progress,
when experience points out necessity for so
doing
ave are aware thatit is frequently urged that
Mr.. Powell is also pro-slavery man, and has In
Dictated disposition TO prescribe emancipationisss
but il is also understood that he Is not 30 ultra
as his ompetitor-consequent did not drive so
many conservative men from him a. did Mr.
Dixon
"The result of this election has demonstrated
two facts that cannot be denied first, the people
cannot be drilled and marched into the support Of
men upon the mere hackneyed cry Of Whiggery
or Democracy, to the neglect Of other and more
important questions; and secondly, that the
Emancipation party hold the balance Of power In
their own hands, and can elect or defeat whom
they please
at Is true, that many thousands Of kentucky's
best sons we're induced 10 Gait their votes against
C. M. Clay some because they regarded his race
as being premature, others could not be induced
10 leave their respective candidates; the Whigs

their candidate, could not think Of IL.

THE TWO DESPOTISMS.

There are laws in Cuba Furnishing with death
a deliberate attempt to overthrow its Govern
ment.
There are laws in the United States Furnishing
with fine and imprisonment any attempt at the
abduction of slaves.
Under the former, forty Americans, having
been found guilty of their violation, were shot ];
under the latter, two Americans, Captains Dray-
ton and Sayres, having been found guilty Of their
violation, have been lying for two years in the
Jail at Washington, and there is little, if any,
prospect of their speedy release.
The men who are now 80 loudly olamoring
against the execution Of the forty Americans in
Cuba were as decided in their appreciation of the
incarceration of the two Americans in Washing
ton and many of those who condemned the incar-
csration of these are now defending or excusing
the execution Of those.
And yet both sets of laws have been made, to
uphold oppression-in Cuba, the oppression of
the white man, in America the oppression Of the
black man.
Consistency therefore requires that those who
denounce the execution of the forty Americans,
should denounce the Incarceration Of the two
Americans while those who condemned the in
generation of the latter, should condemn the ex-
ecution of the former.
We lament the fate Of Captain Kerr and his
associates, for, though they suffered legally, the
laws which they violated are intended to main
tains Drayton and Sayres, because, though suf-
fering legally the laws they violated were intend
ed to uphold the system of Slavery, a Despotism
worse for black men, than Cuban Despotism is
for white men. This taxes its victims TO the ex-
IRENE that leaves its subjects nothing TO be taxed
this denies them freedom of locomotion, freedom
of speech and the press the right Of petition; so
does that. But Cuban Despo.ism, unlike American
Slavery, does not reduce its victims to the condi-
ton of property The Creole enjoys the rights Of
marriage, cannot be bought or sold, can educate
himself or be educated, can earn wages, can own
property, can emigrate-but Of all these rights,
the slave is deprived.
Things bad begun make strong themselves
by ILL.," A wrong system cannot be sustained by
right laws. What supports it is like itself
The man who violates the laws which maintain
Despotism, may be guilty of an imprudence, but
not crime and we can no more withhold our SYM
patty from him, than from the victims of the
Despotism itself Despots may stigmatize him as
a robber, q cnt-throat, pirate, but the heart Of
mankind acquits him Of crime, and brands his
accuser as libeler.
The men who lost their lives in the attempt to
aid the Cubsns in their struggle against oppres-
sion, are pirates only in the judgment Of tyrsntS
and their apOlogists.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM CUBA.

A telegraphic despatch, received by the news
papers in Baltimore, from the editor Of the So
rsnnah N,~s, dated September l, M P. M, an
nounces the arrival of the schooner Merchant,
with Havana dates to the 23d August General
Lopez, it is said, had been victorious in several
engagements; General Enna with a large num-
Der Of officers and men, was slaughtered on the
18th; and the invaders mastering 900 or 1000
men, were marching upon Havana. General
Emma was buried on the Goth at Havana with
great pomp. The city was in great CONSERVATION,
as but 700 troops were there. We do uot know
