Fnry-FouR FoRrY.--The people Of Oregon
still maintain that their northern boundary is
nothing short OF 54 deg. 40 min, and great
many are found of the same opinion in other
parts of our glorious Union. Late develop
ments in the region above the line Of AZ, have
proved the existence of rich gold deposits near
the shore Of the Straits; and the news by the
last Oregon mail is to the effect that hundreds
of northern reighbors are about to take up their
quarters n what have been deemed by certain
creduous people part of her Majesty's domin-
ions. ltappears, however, that the royal power
Of England has determined to defend these
mines from intrusion, by calling the entire force
upon the Pacific coast TO rendezvous at this
point; and if the a tempt is made to GUST the oc-
cupants, we may find some new elements ia the
presidential campaign for 1852, which the polit-

CuBA.--Since the arrival of the news of the
landing Of Lopez, which we have already pub
Iished, our city has been quite alive with Cuba
excitement On rising yesterday morning. our
eyes were greeted by flag, with lone star and
three stripes, streaming the breeze from the top
of the Exchange. Soon another, much larger,
hoated out most gracefully from the Georgian
Office Our republican neighbors, catching the
infection, followed the example. Nor was the
News--a Jealous laborer in the Cuban cause
behind hand. While we write, we understand
that there are some eight or ten hung out in
different portions of the city The current of
feeling in our midst runs strong and deep in
behalf of Lopez and his fellow patriots. Few
hearts among us but are beating with anxions
hopes that victory may perch upon his standard.
And we may say to the friends OF liberty through
out the country, that those among us whose in
formation and intelligence best qualify them to
speak, are confident in their expectations of his
success His landing is believed to be in one
Of the most favorable quarters of the Island,
where, strong in the physical advantages OF n
noun ainous country, and in troops of friends,
who, but waited his arrival to rally TO his stan
dard-he can laugh defiance at the captain gen.
eral and his mercenareas this, we believe
that an independent provisional government has
been organized; and We should net be surprised
at any hour to see the pampero, with the flag Of
independent Cuba unfurled from her mast, make
her entrance, amidst shouts Of welcome, into our
port. And no longer will there be left to our
government the shadow of right to interfere be-
tween the bslligerent parties adversely TO the
cause Of liberty. - Savannah Georgian, 22d inst

count of the bridge in progress of construction
across the Nile, near Cairo
"a French engineer is constructing strong
and beautiful bridge across the river, where the
water is both deep and swift. The arches are
of large brick. Another appears TO be building
over the Damctta branch as seen In the distance.
Mud machines, all iron, worked by steam pile

From the .Ne,o York Journal Of Comm,ree

Mr.. EDITOR: will give you my opinion ol
the cause of so many deaths among children; II
may offend some, particularly those who know
what say to be fact Too often, when lady
becomes a mother, little gin or porter is re.
commended by the doctor or nurse, to strengthen
her. The child draws this poison from the
breast of the mother, its constitution is de-
stroyed, in three months it is either dead or is
poor, sickly thing for year, and then dies. In
my opinion, this is the key to considerable
share Of the mortality among children.

MANUFACTURES IN kussIA.-A correspondent
of the AAgemeine Zeiung, writing under date
of Tiflis, July 6, says:
"A great Improvement is about to take place
in Russian manufactures. The cultivation and
manufacture of silk have recently been intro
duced into the Transcausian provinces, whereby
the commercial relations of those provinces vii
be greatly extended, while in the province #
Tabasaranesh fine merinos have been intro
duced, which are wrought in the Moscow facto-
ties A large Moscow house has arranged for
the purchase of immense quantities of raw silk,
to be transported to Moscow by steamers, via
Baka and Astrachan. This new commercial re-
lation has opened source of much profit and
employment to the inhabitants of Moscow, and
will afford abundant work to large number of
women and children. The course hitherto
adopted of conveying the raw silk in sailing
vessels was attended with great uncertainty,
from the very limited communication by water,
and the immense expense of land carriage"

THE Loss or THE STEAMER UEIoS S---Captain
Marks, late of the steamship Union, ia about to
publish statement of the wre-s Of that vessel
as well as of the conduct of a portion Of the pas
SINGERS and crew while he was employed in dis
charging his duty by protecting the gold dust in
his charge. The dust brought home by hun has
been lbeled for salvage in saving it from the
wreck. Bonds amounting To S300,000 have
been required.
Theietter of DR.. Allen Pearce, of'this city, sur
geon on board the steamer Union, 10 which we
alluded yesterday, describing the wreck, speaks
especially of the crew and not the passengers
being drunk, and would therefore seem to sus-
tain the assertion made in the statement pub
lished by some Of the passengers, that the cause
of the vessel running ashore was owing TO the
neglect OF duty of the crew-Bah. Sun.

s5H- A wonderful discovery has been made
by a little paper, calling itself the Daily Non
pareil, which discovery it very sagaciously des.
ignates the Truth at last
This Truth at last" however, happens to be
its own crooked view of very clear statement
Of ours, relative to the destructive effects of that
" freedom Of action which the laws permit TO
every man" TO grind TO the dust their fellow
men, whom they pretend to treat as Christians
and equals This freedom Of action, in its pres
do injury to others, merely because those others
have not capital, CT intelligence, or physical
strength, to carry on the contention or compe-
tition.
Now in what way would our worthy cotemp-
orary apply that argument TO the condition OF
the black race! OF all the working classes OF
the civilized world, it is admitted even by some
of the fanatics, that none can beast so much
comfort, health, and happiness, as that class in
the Southern States.
The rule does not apply to them, therefore.
They are not left by any pretended freedom of
action to rot in the streets when physically dis
nbled from labor; nor are they turned adrift,
when aged, to perish by the -side--depend-
ent upon the insulting charity of their neigh
bors They are not overworked, like the white
slave of the North, like 'he white slave Of Eng
land, and those Of other selfstyled civilized
countries.
They have time to enjoy themselves in dane
ing and singing; while The +" freedom of action"
slave is scheming robbery, crime and murder, to
nourish himself and his starving family. They
work reasonable time. beneficial to their health;
while the other is exhausted, morally and phys
ically, by l6 OF ls hours toll, and seeks the bot
tie to revive him. They live to happy old age
while the white slave perishes in few years,
which his taskmasters cody calculate, as they
would the wearing out Of machine

Gus remedy.--lie can turn idler, vagabond, or
imposter, and thus gain perilous and uncertain
existence that makes him loathe himself, and

HORRIBLE AFFAIK-Fipe Brothers Burned Il
Death On Tuesday night, the 10Th inst, the
house of Mr.. Onacker, baker, in the town OF
Brighton, FIVE miles from Cleveland, Ohio, was
consumed, and his five sons perished in the

Mr.. Onaker's house was bull. of wood, two

this oven Mrs. Onaker had been baking during

The work, had not removed al the Goals.
About midnight Mr.. Ooaker and his wife
were awakened from sound sleep, by the most
dreadful shrieks. They jumped from the bed
the smoke was pouring into the room, half
sitting them with its thick hot volume; the
most horrible cries and groans proceeded from
the apartment cupied by their five sons. The
awful truth flashed at once upon the minds OF
the poor parents--Tbey attempted to rush to
the rescue of their darlings. The flames ch oked
their way. In ten minutes the house would be
smouldering heap of ruins. Now was the only
time to escape, and the miserable father and
mother, almost crazed with the sense of the dis
aster, snatched up their sixth and last child, a
mere infant, who fortunately slept with them,
and rushed into the open air.
The first neghbor that came upon the ground,
says that he found the wretched parents leaning
against the fence, almost dend with terror, and
staring vacantly into the flames. In a few
minutes the house fell to the ground 1t is
