ExcrrEMENr AMONG THE SLAvEs.-A dis
patch from New Orleans. on the 18th inst. says !:
No little excitement has been created here To
day, by a rumor that the negro slaves were pre-
pairing for an insurrection. A free negro gave the
information to the Police who arrested the King
leaders and placed them in confinement, The
plan was to seize the Arsenal and fire the public
buildings, upon which $500 negroes were to seize
apon aud butcher all the citizens. Many persons
look upon the rumor as hoax, bat the Police
have taken all necessary steps to guard against
>anger,in the event that the plan described should
be contemplated.
A dispatch on the next day says:-Fnrther de-
Selopments of the intended slave insurrectlon have
been made. which show that an English school
snaster named Dyson is implicated as the ch'et
conspirator. This man taught school OF free
colorsd persons. The affair looks more serious
sban il did at first. A number of white persons
are known to have been connected with the
gnent.

SURFErrEp.-The Richmond Examiner seems
to think that the people of Virginia have become
completely surfelted with elections. But 1t is a
progressive age, and the people must bear II, II
their suffering is intolerable." Hear what the
Examiner says:
.sThe truth is, the people ofVirginia have 0een
done to death with politics. For the last hve
years no season has been exempt from this uOlqul-
tous plague observation-disclosures! In
summer and winter, in heat and in cold, in moist
and in dry, this people has been ordered and re-
ordered to turn out and 90 to the polls. Election
of Judges, election of Senators, and Deegates,and
Constables, aud Presidents, aud Magistrates and
Night-Watchmen, and Surveyors. and Congress
men-there has been no end to them. Inc extra
sessions of the Legislature and double Reform
Conventions, between them, have drained the
pockets of the people, exhausted their patience
and wholly taken their time for years The pub,
Tic mind has become utterly sick of politics. and
looks forward to respite of two years with as
much happiness as nion ever did to nap upon his
wheel Nothing but some great occasion will ey-
= r bring out the full vote of Virginia again"
