..'T,,e British, wings"

s'Ehe BRITISH w hbgs''
Any one familiar with the Presidential cam
paigps of the last twenty years, well remem
Der that the great argument OF the Democracy
in all these contests until the present, was
found in the epithet of "British Wings" We
were told on every Democratic stump. and in
every Democratic journal, that the Wings
were all "Brish Wings"
One would suppose that the Democracy
might be reluctant TO lose this thunder--but
We never hear it now days. The words
are bloued out of the Locoioco vocabulary
Ii would be little too impudeut for the Pierce
organs to charge us with iavoring the British
or being favored by the British, when the lead
ing Tory journals In Eng land are all out IN Ia
vor ofthe Democratic candidates. They all
go for Pierce and King.
The more Harbor and River bills that are
vetoed the better it is for The Canadans, who
by their roads and canals, can compete for the
transportation Of the products Of the North
west,
The more fnrnncas go out of blast IN Penn
sylvan ia, the letter il is for The iron masters o
Great Brtpn.
Pierce and King from their hostility to Har
Dor aud River improvements, and their oppo
sition to discriminating protective Tariff
much better than Scott and Graham. The
Democracy, therefore, are the British party II
1852
The interests manifested in the success ol
Pierce and King by such journals as the Lon
don Times, the London Leader, the Manohes.
ter Examiner, aud the Liverpool Times, is ensi
ly accounted for. They stand up for British
interests, and they know that the commercial
nf tha 10
cripples the Unlad States, and augmenrs the
prosperity Of Great Britain. They are right
in doing so. But their doing SO makes lis M
cumbent upon the American press to stand up
with equal zeal for American interests and
mercan policy Let the British rally around
Pierce with the same "gush of enthusiasm
which has united Soule. Forsyth, Vcnablc,
Brown, Jefferson Davis. and the fre-enters
and secessionists generally, with the Van Bu-
rens, H. B. Stanton, Giddingses, Buffers,
Ceavelands, Dixes, Summers, and the Free
soilers generally in his support. Nashville
and Buffalo Conventonsts cooperating with
London and Manchester capitalists, present a
pretty strong combination; but American
Wings under the lead of Scott have beaten
Great Britain aud her allies too often to permit
us to doubt of the result.
We think. sincerely, that such n combina
ton of auti-pairiotic and hostile elements
would be collected around General Pierce, in
the event of his election, that no true-henrted
American and Wing can contemplate his sue
cess without alarm for the best interests OF the
country. It is all matter Of "taste' IN the
Judgment Of some of our contemporaries, bui
Is a matter Of tasc we confess that we can
not understand how any conservative and a.
mercan administration car be erected on this
alliance Of British manufacturers with Scces
sonsts and sunionists-Rcpublic.

Further from Havana.

More Of the 1Jreas.-The New Orleans
Picayune contains the details ofthe news from
Havana of which We have already given the
substance by telegraph. A correspondent of
that paper writing from Havana, under date
of tho 3d instant says:
Il am told that special guard of twelve of
The police has been detailed TO prevent any
communication with the Crescent City, which
arrived this morning
"An order has been received at the post-of
fee, from the Captain General, prohibiting the
admission into the island of all newspapers from
tho United States. There are four large bags
by the Crescent City now under lock and key.
| am also informed that the purser the steam
ship has not been permitted to come ashore
1t is said the purscr is accused of carrying ex-
aggerated accounts of arrests to New York, on
his last trip
The writer adds that 400 suspected persons,
including ID females arc now in prison; and,
on the Cd instant about thirty prisoners were
seen TO stop at the commissary 8 office. Among
them was u young officer of the rank of captain,
dressed in full uniform, with several orders on
his breast, but with his arms tied behind his
back with strong cords.
The Captain General has written to Spain
for instructions. He does not know what to
do with the prisoners. 1t costs money to main
tain them, and 10 send them 10 Spain to
shoot them would make matters worse, in the
acknowledged state of public feeling all over
the island. In fact the government is ut its
wits end. und does not know what TO do.
The French consul-gencral has written TO
his government to send force to Havana for
the protection of French interests in case Of
disturbance; and Mr.. Crawford, the English
consul general, it is said. has done the same.
MoRE OF THE LEAHY MuRDER.--lt is stated
that Leahy, the reputed "Monk of La Trap

gave the following reason for the murder
Stretching forth his right hand, he said: "To

rected il. In vision, last night, God told me

origin of The affray. His career is now in all

THE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
i present many novel features suited to the adj
| vnncing demands of the public taste 1t has ever
been the object of the publisher to take the lead
among the popular magazines of this country; and
the host of mitators, who have been constantly
following -"toiling after him in vain''-are sufh
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient reason for his not
| being very explicit and exact his promises of
what s yet to come. He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow. is sufficient, however,
to say that all the existing popular features Of the
LApY's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fami-
ly Magazine, will be introduced. The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view.
To the Magazines alone must look for the
etusions of the master minds Of Literature. IL is
useless to publish list of names-sutfice it to say
that we published articles, and have others to

temporary press will establish it, that it is the most
