OF Cardenas, proposes, in letter to the New
Orleans Courier, the construction of floating
SUB marine telegraph from Cape Sable, in Flo
rlda, to Key West, and from thence to Hicacos,
Cuba. The distance from Cape Sable to II. is
100 miles, and the cost of the wire is estimated
at $3oo,oo0. Mr.. c. says "The execution Of
this project would augment business and com
mercia relations between the United States
and Cuba immensely"

THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE, when last heard
from, was in some confusion, on the subject OF
the appointment Of senators and representatives
for the next session. number of members
opposed to the bill fixing the number of sena
tors at 49, and of representatives Mt 80, had with
drawn from their seats, and quorum was
maintained only by counting the sick, who were
not able to attend, in their respective houses,
hut were waited on at their lodgings when their
votes were required. We learn, however, that
compromise was about to be affected, by
which the number of members OF the NEXT
legislature would be reduced, and n quorum in
the present body restored. number Of sena-
tors and representatives have gone home, and
many more are anxious to go.
1t seems to be a well settled fact that the
legislature will make no appropriation of money
for railroads. Cipilian, FEB 8.

The Republic undertakes to find comfort for
the Wings in the discussions of the Democrats,
or those who have been such. And then, as if
feeling ludicrous consciousness of the absurd
ity of resorting to such topic by such print
when the separation is almost total between the
Northern and Southern Wings, the Republic
tries to comfort itself with the declaration that
the people are coming out in immense mJort;es
for Mr.. FILLMoRE's policy of Compromise final

ENGLAND AND THE DesPoTIc Powers OF Eu
RoPE-A large and influential meeting of the
inhabitants of the Tower Harnlets England
was recently held to give an expression to pub
lie feelings in regard to the French coup detat
and ths threatening aspect assumed by the des
potic powers of Europe against the independence
of England. After several strong speeches, the
following resolution was adopted
"That an niquitous system Of lawless militia
ry despotism now reigns supreme in Europe
that It's last triumph, in the person of the un-
scrupulous and perjured would-be- Emperor OF
France, brings the question of European liberty
home to the immediate interests ofall English
men and that England snow bound, more
than ever, both for the sake of suffering human
ity and her own welfare, to maintain firm at
titude towards all despoiic powers, and to Ms
sert the right Of every nation to the liberties
which have been 6cbed from them by fraud, by
brute force, and by perjury"

tW- We commend to the attention of the
Republic the following statement, which we
find in the Boston Post:
In New Hampshire, the stoutest Wing compro
mise men are forming coalitions with the most
ultra Abolitionists to elect members to the leg
islature, without the former receiving line Of
rebuke from their friends in Boston Why are
these Union presses, the Daily and the Courier
so silent! Will they see this tidal flow of cor.
ruption go on, and make no effort whatever to
stay its progress!
The same paper also states that Mr.. RANToUL
who claims full Democratic communion, received
the support of every class of Abolitionists, from
the Freesoilers down.

Ii this the Entertainment to which we were
Invited /?

Telegraphc dispatches were received here
yesterday, stating that WALTER Brooks, esq,
a Wing, had been elected to the Senate of the
United States, in place of General FooTE, re-
signed, for the term ending March, 1853, and
that STEPHEN ADAMS, Union Democrat, had
been elected for the unexpired term of General
DAVIS. The Union party has majority on
joint ballot of twenty votes.
1t thus appears that the submission Demo-
Gratis of Mississippi have refused to re-unite with
the Southern Rights Democrats, although the
latter constitute about four-6fths of what was
once the Democratic party of that State, and
this, notwithstanding the Southern Rights Dem
ocrats, after the Convention election of the
State, proposed the reunion.
We never did concur in that movement of the
Southern Rights Democrats of Mississippi;
for we were satisfied that the division was
deeper than Democracy, as it is commonly IN
derstood. But the experiment was tried, and
has failed. The submission Democrats, how
ever, had plausible excuse for elccting FooTE,
for he still pretended to be Democrat; but
they have now distinctly renowned and repu
dated reunion, by voting for and electng one
Wing, in order to secure the election of one Of
their own men, belonging to a small fragment
of the party. This result is in accordance with
the policy adopted by the Washington Union
last summer, and also with that pursued here.
The offices and spoils are to be divided among
the submission men, whether Wings or Demo-
Gratis, until the experiment could be made
whether the Southern Rights men would not
agree to bestow the principal part of them on
the Compromise Democrats, as, we presume, a
sort of reward for establishing the Compromise.
