Abolition Agitation,

We extract to-day from the Republic com
munication, which, if published by us, would
have been abused, as an effort to promote agita-
ton and disunion. 1t is evidently contributed
by some Southern Wing getting FESTIVE under
Northern dictation. The only wonder is that
the Republic ventured to publish it, but so tick
ish is its position that it dared not refuse. This
article shows how idle is the pretext that the
abolition agitation has ceased or is diminishing,
Coupled with the recent bold demonstration
and declarations of Mr. HALE in the Senate. and
Mr.. PRESTON KING in the House, and the con-
tinuance of SEWARD in the Wing caucus, it
must convince every Southern man that the
times look squaly.

SOCIETY," IsLANps.-By the arrival Of the schoo
ner Lydia at San Francisco, we have some further
particulars Of the revolt against the authority Of
Queen Pomnre The Lydia left Raitea March
9th. At that time it was quite peaceable at the
Island But at all the rest Of the islands there wa
every appearance Of revolution, especially at
Huchna. There the natives had already denied
the authority Of Queen Pomare, and forbidden her
the island, and had chosen "king." Yet there
are two parties--one for the old and one for the
new government and there being erected
forts and barricades by the new government to
repulse the Queen if she attempted to land, which
was expected. Every night guards were stationed
around the island. Compa MES of soldiers have
been uniformed, equipped and drilled.
Queen Pomare has applied to the French, En-
glish, and American authorities at Tahiti for pro-
lection and aid, which have been refused. They
have issued letters to all foreign residents to have
no part in the. fast brewing ARRAY, and no doubt
the revolution will sweep through all the leeward
islands.

The fact is, the Northern and Western mind il

The Wings of Dallas met few days ago at
Cahawba and took m0ures to be represented
in the National convention. They adopted the
compromise measures as "finality," and in
structed their delegates, in the event of the Ma
tional convention refusing to do likewise, to
withdraw from it, organise separate conven
ton and proceed to nominate candidates upon
the principle" Of the "fnality" basis.
The Montgomery Register, speaking of re
organization, says:
We count as our allies in opposing the re;
organization of the National Wing party, the
Talladega Reporter, the Chambers Tribune, Au-

Union, certainly; and we believe that the Hayne-
Vile Waterman and Camden PhGnir are also

WESTERN AGITATION.
"CINcINnATI, May 5, 1852


Z" To The Editor of The National Era:
"The An,i.Slavory convention, for which a
call appeared in your paper some time since, be-
gun its sessions on Tuesday, the 9th day of
April, and closed on the evening of the 29th
The hall in which it met, the most central and
commodious in the city, was nearly filled through
the day, and crowded at the night sessions; the
last night large numbers (some think thousand
persons) went away unable to gain admission.
Last year the convention met in the western
part of the city, in rather out of the-way room,
and occurring at the time of the Jenny Lind
concerts and excitement attracted very little
notice, except from those interested in the cause
This year the convention has been the subject
of general remark; many have attended its
meetings occasionally, and some stately, who
have never before been accustomed TO take any
interest in such discussions and the daily pa
pers have given reports of the proceedings, and
given their readers long editorials suggested by
them. All this you are aware shows very diff
ferent state of things from that existing dozen
years ago, or even less, when the very mention
Of nm anti-slavery meeting awoke whsperi,gs

AID TO THE COLLINS LlNE-Tbe ouestion. of
granting additional compensation to the Collins
line of steamers is still before the Senate of the
ohlted states. Mr. Hunter made an able speech
on the 9th inst, against the appropriation. He
thinks the Collins steamers are not equal 10 prc
peilers for war purposes, and as tn e hostages Of
letters carried by them does not now equal the
amount paid them, he is opposed to any increase
or compensation. He also thinks that an increase
OF compensation to the Collins line will involve
like increase to the Havre and Bremen lines.
and he is opposed to this additional expenditure.
Mr. Hunter stated that the Cunard line receives
rom the British government only VA, 900 trip,
whilst the effort in our Senate is to grant $4,000
a trip to the Collins line. The object of this ap-
p'Icahon is to enable the propretors ofthe Colli,
line to carry on trade in transportation of freight
ana passengers at rates lower than could be at
iorded by others--thus giving them "A monopoly.
We know nothing of the facts necessary to emu
BILE us to form correct judgment in this matter.
We have noticed heretofore, that petition from
Charleston, in favor of the additional compe ns,,-
ton, has been presented to the House. Who
signed that petition, and what was the extent Of
'ieT dS 10 tue OO1eCt4 and profits of
the proprietor of the line, are matters of which
we wholly ignorant We consider it all i'm
portant that the line should be sustained. and IL

adepha, Baltimore, Charleston etc., should be
considered lfNew York is to be made the centre
OF the world, let it be done by her enterprise,
and not by appropriations from the common

We, hold that the Collins line should be sus-

board 450 Coolies. In lat. % N. Ion. l2S E :,
a difficulty occurred between the captain and

went ashore on one Of The Manganese Islands,

ceived by the natives in The most friendly
manner. The seamen who had not been fortu-

The GoLD DISCOVERIES IN AUSTRALIA
The dispatches of Mr.. Lalrobe, Lieutenant
Governor OF Vic 'oria, convey the most vivid
picture OF the extent and value of these disco,s
rles OF gold, and of their effect on the popula-
tion. Il Witnessed, says MIR. Latrobe, dur.
ing my visit, the washing of two tin dishes of
the clay OF about 90 inches in diameter, the
yield OF which was no less than eight pounds
weighs of pure gold" The average produce
OF this spot was estimated for some time at
about 700 ounces and upwards per diem. But
even this was soon surpassed by the discoveries
at Mount Alexander. The gold raised there in
December was calculated by hundredweight hts,
and arrived in the cities on the coast at the
rate OF about two tons week. Some 10000
persons were soon congregated III the district.
Ballarat was comparatively deserted, and,
from the general prevalence all over the colo.
ny Of the same geological formation in which
gold has hitherto been found, Mr.. Latrebe de-
clares that he can Contemplate no limit to
the discoveries or to the result of the opening
Of these fields"
