ARRIVAL OF THE ATLANTIC.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1851-05-28

THE WAR IN MISUNDERSTANDING to the last
accounts from England, it appears that the in
telligence from the seat of war in Kafraria was
very unsatisfactory, and that Sir Henry Smith, the
commander of the forces there, was obliged to
forego anything like a comprehensive military
scheme, for want of sufficient force. Five hundred
troops were their way to kafraria; but, even
with this addition, we doubt very much if he will
be able to do anything. We would not be at all
surprised if this warfare with the kafirs should
require an immense expenditure of money, and
great sacrifice of life, before it is ended. The
Kafirs are a fierce and warlike people, who will
not lay down their arms until half of them are
annihilated The probability is, therefore, that the
British government will find in them enemy not
to be despsed and if the Kafirs give less trouble
and cause less expense than the Florida Indians
did to the United States, the people Of England
may be very thankful.
We cannot sympathize with England in this
new misfortune. Her ambition has been to make
conquest in every part of the world, and she has
invariably treated those VIII pm she has subdued-
especially if they savage half savage
worse than the Spart treated their helots.
She has invariably treated those of this character
whom she conquered as the early Spaniards did
the Indians of America, by first taking their land,
and afterwards making slaves of them. Nor do we
think she will meet with sympathy from any civil
lied people She has no business in Kafraria at
an; but, as she determined to coonize there, and
deal unjusty towards the natives, she may get out
Of the difficulty as best she can.

Peel At one time, it is well known he was In fsvor
of the imposition Of high tariff on the importation
of foreign grain and bresdstuns. He was at one
time strong protectionist but in the latter part Of
his life he became moderate free trade man; and if
he had lived few years longer, he would, doubt
have sided completely into the advocacy Of free
trade doctrines to the fullest extent. There was
no inconsistency in that Sir Robert Peel changed
his opinions, as Mr.. Webster has DINE. Every man
has perfect right to do SO, without mourning the
charge of being inconsistent.
so much, then, for the Iribnnss objections to
Mr.. Webster's speech at Buffalo. For ourselves,
we would despise man who would not change his
opinions when he was satisfied that those which he
previously entertained were erroneous. 1t is this
sticking to certain opinions which has made the
party press SO insipid worthless, and, general
thing, despicable as it is.

The election of the representatives from the
Second, Fourth, and Seventh districts, was the
first that was held under the new plurality lava
law which it was necessary to pass, if Massachu-
sets desired her representation to be complete, for
under the old system it was evident no election
could be expected. 1t would appear that in the
United States Senate, Massachusetts has one whig
and one free soiler and in the House, ular
wings, two free soil wings, and one free soil demo
crat. Well, if Massachusetts is content, we do not
see that any person can complain.

Curious FACTS FROM THE CENsUS.eA
writer in the New York Observer calls az
tention to some curious facts derived from
the census of the United States. These
facts show remarkable prevalence Of idiocy
and insanity among the free blacks over the
whites, and especially over the slaves:
, In the State of Maine every fourteenth
colored person is an idiot or alunatic. And
though there is gradual improvement in
the condition of the colored race, as we pro-
ceed west and south, yet it is evident that
the free States are the principal abodes Of
idiocy and lunacy among them. r,
In Ohio there are just ten colored persons
who are idiots or lunatics, where there is
one in Kentucky. And in Louisiana, where
large majority of the population is colored,
and four-ffths Of the men are slaves, there
is but one ofthese unfortunates to 4, ,309 who
are sane. The proportions in other States,
according to the census of 1850, are as fol-
lows: In Massachusetts, / in 43; Connecs
ticut, in 1856; New York, 1 in 257 Penn
sylyania, in 256; Maryland, in 1,074 !;
Virginia, in 1909 North Carolina, in L.
215; South Carolina, 1 in Z, ,440; Ohio, 4 Id
105; Kentucky, / in 1858. This in Ger.
tainly very curious calculation; and indi.

rare among the slaves than among the free

Of the latter, many are not sufficiently Cd
