The News.

We re-publish our table of contributions for the
seef ofthe sufferers b. the epidemic in New Orleans
with such additions have come to our knowledge.
Our previous tables which were made up for the
HERALD, have been very extensively copied by the
journals in this city well those at distance,
and in some instances the proper credit has been
given, but in most cases they have been apprepria
ted without any acknowledgement OF this, how
ever We do not complain as the time has long since
passed when we ceased to be annoyed at seeing
articles which first appeared in this journal, taken
bodily by some Of our labor-saving cotemporaries,
and placed in their columns in such position to
Gsate the impression on the minds of their readers
Vat there they originated but when they copied
sd garbled as the case yesterday in the Phila
ssgnia North american, and done for the
- dent purpose Of lowering the city Of New
srk in the estimation Of our Southern fellow-cid-
8.as, and raising Philadelphia, we feel that we
tsve right to speak. The journal alluded to trans
fsrred our table of contributions to its columns with
DO other alterations than taking fifteen thousand
dollars from the amount contributed by the city Of
New York. and giving to Philadelphia three thousand
dsnars more than she had actually subscribed. The
sbect of this is transparent and the reasons given
above will be obvious not only here, but so in the
South. We have no disposition to enter into any
controversy about who gives the most, or who the
least TO an object like that of New Orleans and only
vsh to see the facts and figures correctly put down
md the sum reach half million Of dollars We feel
assured that the object is true charity, and the
mon will be well spent. The following is the

VIRGINIA IN FOR Tive mentioned the other
day the fact that Mr.. Orr, of South Carolina,
would be put forward as q candidate for the
Speakership Of the next Congress. Since then
Mr.. Thomas s. Bocock, popular young member
Of the Virginia delegation, has been spending
some days in New York, and the knowing ones
say that he has been looking round here, by in.
yitation of his friends in reference to tns o.

ard Of a decidedly higher order Of talents than
be is generally credited for. If Mr.. Boyd can
be run off the track, and Mr.. Bocock can be run
in, so let it be- The democracy must settle
the question for themselves. Out Of dozen or
a score of candidates they can hardly fail to
make selection with majority Of seventy in
the House, and the wings in reserve to help
them in case of pinch. But we are not going
to be too fast in our choice, or we may tail to
choose the pet of the cabinet. Let us know
who is to be the pet of the cabinet and we can
speak freely. Mr.. Boyd, we are afraid, is not
the man. Is it Mr.. Breckenridge, of Ken
lucky? Who knows?

LORD JOHN RUSSELL AND OUR GOVERNMENT

John Russell on the Cuba question; but as we

We can hardly spare the room for series Of
learned essays on the single letter of Lord John.
We commend, however, the whole series to our
peighbor Of the Evening Post. They evil

THE ORPHANS OF New ORLEANs.-About
noon yesterday, small parcel was sent to the
HERALD Office enclosing forty dollars, with the
following request
This contribution ($40) is sent expressly for the
benefit If the children who have been made orphans
by the fever ut New Orleans.
NEW YORK, Sept. IA, 1868.
There was no signature nothing to indicate
from whom this gift for the poor children Of
New Orleans came. This is true charity direct
from the heart. There is no parade. but de-
sire, beautifully expressed, that the orphans
should be thought Of and protected We hope
Mr.. Frost will see that this money is appro-
priated as requested by the giver.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?--We find the fol-
lowing advertisement in one of the penny
papers Of yesterday
Wanted-Sixteen able-bodied men, who can prove
that they voted for General Cass in 1s49 and who
have become soft since that time, to act as dele
gates to the Democratic State Convention. Apply
to the Chairman of the Freesol General Committee,
at Uncle Toms Cabin, (Tammany Hall,) before FRI
day next
Are the soft shells short, as they say in Wall
street? Whoever put this advertisement in
the paper should have stated whether or not
the expenses were to be paid by the General
Committee. That may make some difference.
What are the hard shells about?

FOR THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE.
The Memorial and the Legislature.

The Memorial, signed by over ten thousand
voters of North Carolina, and presented to
the Legislature of the same, was treated with
contempt and disregard. This was what |
anticipated for politicians of the present
day love themselves and their own popular
ity better than they do their country. Cicero
said 81 love my country better than my own
life ~ lie was a politician worthy the name,
for he proved what he said by his acts and
speeches in the Roman Senate. Pity but
what we could have an Assembly whose pu-
rity and patriotism were equivalent to that
of Cicero's then we might expect our Me
MORALS to be considered, our prayer to be
heard and happiness and prosperity to reign
where misery and adversely now prevail.
Mr.. Editor, | believe we are destined to
triumph. We have truth and justice on our
side, and though they may be bafied for a
while, they will finally prevail. Let our
principles be discussed and explained before
the people, and be understood by them, and
we can obtain a large and overwhelming ma
%ioritv. The Legislature of North Carolina,
in legislating upon the Liquor Traffic, seem
ed to have a particular regard for the welfare
of the free negroes, as they passed alaw pro-
hibiting the sale ofspirituous liquors to them,
who did not ask for it but they seem tC
manifest a very little love to us, tie achHt
folks, who went so far as even to ask for
law, and then couldn't get it This mystery
is easily explained, if we look for a momeni
at the political condition of the two races
Here free negroes are not allowed to vote
tho whites are the Legislature therefore die
not care anything about a law for the mulat
oes, but they were very particular about TIL
rhae folks,' for fear a majority might b.
against it. | do not care anything about ma
%iorities unless they are right. | am in favo
of a principle, upon which | intend to act il
relation to temperance and politics. | don
know whether or not there are many who q
gree with me, but there is one thing certain
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1849-1865, 1853-02-09

I agree with myself, and I wish to express
my views in order that others may form their
in reading mine. l consider the
question of Temperance one of paramount
importance. | furthermore consider the ques-
ton of Traffic or no Traffic of still more i'm
portance. Now the question arises how shall
we get 4" Traffic" or No traffic" before US
This brings US to the touch-stone. Our leg
~islators will have to submit this subject to
US. Now the question arises who of the can
didates are willing to pass a law prohibiting
the sale entirely, and submit it to the people.
That is the question-one which, in compars
ison with the mere principles that divide
parties, towers up like some proud Olympus
surrounded by mere hills. So great and so
important do l consider this law to be, and
so essential to the happiness and prosperity
of the people, that | shall, in voting for
Legislators of North Carolina, lay aside all
party, and vote for the men who are willing
to promote the honor, advance the interest
and increase the happiness of the people, by
voting US a law to prohibit the sale of this in
famous beverage, alcohol, which has brought
to premature graves many of the ablest and
most eminent citizens of our Republic.
INVINCIBLE.
