State of our Negotiations with SPAIN
tits said that importaSs Intelligence has
reached the State Department from Mad
rid and Paris. A dispatch TO the NJ Y.
Tribune says;
In spite of all his efforts and all diplo-
matte seductions, Mr. Soule has not sue
ceeded eitherin restoring an entente cordioie
with Spain, or in doing anything toward
the pnrchase of. Cuba, the Queen of the
Antilles. The obstinacy which the Span
ish Government manifestsinthe settlement
of the Cuban difficulty is to be attribute to
two causes. First they are confident OF
the support of France and England ncase
of emergency. Secondly, they do not
be!ieve,lhe United States Government IS IN
earnest.
Voteotg has get BEN concluded 6F~fea
Froase. Ei9gioad and Spain on tbs Sutjca;
but the preliminary steps for such treaty
were made some time ago, aad only failed
of contamination because England gave
notice that she should insist upon the in
sertion of clause in, regard to slavery in
Cuba, which was so obnoxious to the Span
ish Government that the negotiation was
suspended.
Since then Spain has offered France ten
thousand men to supply the place of the
ten thousand French soldiers in Rome, to
permit the latter to join the army in Turkey
on condition that she will pledge her sup
port against the United States in case of .
war. Louis Napoleon refused the propo-
sition because, alone he could not enter in
to war with the United States.

WoMAN's R1GHTs CONVENTION. The an
nual national convention for the advancement
of woman rights, commenced its sessions on
Wednesday, the 18th inst, in the good city of
Philadelphia. 1t was called to order by Pau
lima w. Davis, of Rhode Island, and Ernes-
tine l.. Rose of New York, was chosen Presi -
dent. Miss Lucy Stone was of course present
and took prominent part in the proceedings
She was clad in neatly fitting Bloomer cos
tune, which was both graceful and becoming
Her dress was entirely black, only relieved by
the white of lace chemisette, and under
sleeves of the same material. Her mantlla
was OF black velvet, covering a black silk
dress, the skirt of which reached below the
knee, beneath which were pantaloons, appar-
emily of cloth, with neatly fitting shoe, COM
pleting her attire. Neither she nor any of the
officers of the convention wore bonnets OF hats
Miss Stone, the Chairwoman of the business
committee, proposed a series of resolutions,
setting forth the great objects for which the
advocates of woman's rights We're striving
and urging upon the women of every Ameri-
can State, to petition the Legislatures for uni
versal suffrage, and reform in the rights of
property; to use their utmost efforts to i'm
prove female education, and to open as rapid
ly as possible, new channels for female indus
try.
In the course of the day, a number of
speeches were made by various ladies, and sew
eral gentlemen, in favor of the resolutions
While speaking of the act of voting by women,
Miss Stone proposed to have separate polls for
women, with the proviso that the decent men
might vote along with the women if they de-
sired.

ANECDoTE OF A NEWFOUNDLAND Doc
A. gentleman connected with the Newfounda
land fishery was once possessed of dog of
eingular fidelity and sagacity. On one occa-
sion, boat and crew in his employ were in
circumstances of considerable peril, just out
side a line of breakers, which, owing to some
change in the wind or weather, had, since
the departure of the boat, rendered the return
passage through them most hazardous. The
spectators on shore were quite unable to rem
der any assistance to their friends ahoat.-
Much time had been spent, and the danger
seemed to increase rather than diminish. Our
friend, the dog, looked on for a length of time,
evidently aware of there being great cause for
anxiety III the minds of those around. Pres
emily, however, he took to the water, and
made his way through to the boat. The crew
supposed he wished to join them, and made
various attempts to induce him to come on
board; but no he would not 90 within their
reach, and continued swimming about a short
distance from them. After while, and sew
eral comments on the peculiar conduct of the
dog, one OF the hands suddenly OWNED his
rope he said, 'that is what he wants.
The rope was thrown. the dog seized the end
i'll an instant, turned round, and made straight
for the shore, where, a few minutes after
wards, boat and crew-thanks to the intelli-
gence of their four footed friend-.were placed
safe and unchanged. Was there reasoning
here? No acting with view to an end, or
for a given motive? Or was it nothing but
ordinary i1Stiacti-ReU. J. C. atkinson, in

FROM DIR. KANE's EXPEDGTIoN.--A letter
from DR. Hayes, one Of the second Grinnell
expedition in search of Sir John Franklin,
has been received, dated the goth of JULY
1858, at Proven, one of the most northern
Danish settlements on the Greenland coast
The expedition was just about to start on its
exploration. The most active preparations
had been made for the search, which would
begin at the point where the vessels could not
penetrate further on account of the ice. A
boat and sleighing party were to conduct the
search. The great object Of this expedition
would be to pave the way for future operations
in the spring. For this purpose, they@earry
with them stock of provisions, consisting of
pemican preserved meats, meat biscuit, &C.,
with a few luxuries, to be left at different
points on the way. The boat, ''The Forlorn
Hope" for so she is called, is so constructed
as to propel either on ice or water-on ice by
eight men operating against wooden bars
dashed athwart the boat, while the doctor will
lead off in advance to explore the track The
stern is covered with an India rubber cloth
tent, to serve as a protection by night, and
cooking apartment by day. Having arrived
at the termination of their journey, leaving the
Forlorn Hope and provisions to the mercy of
the wolves and bears, they will return TO the
brig on foot, in the darkness of the polar night,
guided by their compass and the stars. This
is probably the last intelligence which will be
received from the expedition till the arrival of
the Advance at New York, next month,
where she is expected. Should she fail to
reach port within that time, it will probably
be because Capt. Kane had determined to con-
tinue his researches in the Arctic regions for
another season.

The MANUFACTURE OF LARD IN C1NcIN-
NArr.-It is stated that one establishment in
Cincinnati last year tried out thirty thousand
hogs. To carry on this immense business,
they have seven large circular tanks of sufii-
Gent capacity to hold fifteen thousand gallons
each. They receive the entire carcass, with the
exception Of the hams, and the whole is sub
jected to steam process, under pressure of
seventy pounds to the square inch, the effect
of which operation is to reduce the whole to
one consistence and every bone to powder
The fat is drawn of by cocks, and the resid-
uum, mere earthly substance, as far as made
use of, is taken away for manure. Besides
the hogs which reach the factory in entire
.carcasses, the great mass Of heads, ribs, back
bones, tail pieces, feet, and other trimmings
Of the hogs, cut up at different pork houses,
are subjected to the same process, in order to
extract every particle Of grease. This con-
Germ will turn out this season three millions
six thousand pounds of lard, five-sixths of
which is No. /. Nothing can surpass the pu-
rity and beauty of this lard, which is refined
as well as made under steam process. Six
hundred hogs per day pass through these
tanks one with another.

The CLAW" AND "CoNsTITUrIoN" OF Tex

The Coal Trade SUsPENDED.-The Phil
adeiohia Bulletin of Wednesday says that the
coal operators IN Schuylkill county have COM
bined and suspended the shipment of coal, al
leging as an excuse. that the wages of work.
men are too high. The Bulletin adds;
1.-The consequence is an almost total failure
in the receipts Of coal, while the supply in the
various yards OF the city is probably not more
than enough for weeks consumption. The
operators could not have done more unwise
thing; for they cannot convince the public
that with the enormous advance on the prices
they are receiving, they cannot pay the small
advance in wages. They will feel the conse-
quences of their folly before long, and we shall
not be surprised if one of the first acts of Con-
gress, on re- assembling, shall be the removal
Of the duty on coal. They will have no one
to blame but themselves.

slavery md Dominica.

The propagandists of Slavery never sleep.
That /" eternal vigilance in the price of lib
erty' is a theory of freemen but that eter-
nal vigilance is the necessity of slavery is the
every day demonstration of shareholders.
The freeman, satisfied that he is free, delights
in speculative distractions about general lib
erty. The slave holder, tormented with
sense of insecurity, so long as there is one
SPOT on Gods earth free, persistently in
trigues, DULLES, and conquers the world to his
will. AT this present moment, while the
freemen Of the North are, in too many instan-
ces, perfectly Indifferent to the great question
of human freedom-a question which ought
to take precedence of all other questions at
this time-the friends of slavery are laying
their plans, and concentrating them, for the
extension and consolidation of the dishonor
of our name, the disgrace Of our civilization,
American Slavery.
The Agents of Frank Pierce have OBJ
tanned, from the Dominican government, the
right to establish naval and military stations
in the northern part of the Island of st. Do
mingo. The mountainous region of SANTANA
with its wealth of hidden metals is included
in this territory; and to make this mineral
wealth available, our countrymen are to have
the privilege Of mining and trading in the
Dominican republic without being obliged to
be naturalized.
Now, why do we want naval and military
stations in Dominica
For the clear and openly expressed purpose
of furnishing facilities for the conquest of
Hayti, Cuba, Central America, and any other
spot of land which the cupidity and conven-
fence of the Slayeocracy may see fit to steal
The acquisition of Cibao, (the name of the
department in Dominica which has been par
italy coded to our government is the first
step in that system of national robbery, which
will either SILVER this Union into pieces or
drag the nation into the deepest vortex of in
fanny and universal scorn. This is no time
for Anti Slavery men either to desert, or make
of secondary consequence, the cause of Am
erican freedom: The propagandists of Slav-
cry are busy weaving the meshes of Slavery,
and unless they are met bravely, openly, man
lily, determinedly, we may bid goodbye, for
long night of years, to the glory of the re-
public.

succeeded in constructing a mechanical fog
trumpet for light houses or ships, which upon

be blown at regular intervals, so loud that in

The New NoMINEEs.-Surprise seems to
tons of the Know Nothing" Convention,
the more especially as it had been pretty
significantly given forth, that when the
nominations for the first officers in the State
were made, they were to be of such char
acter for ability and craftsmanship, as should
make ample amends for the very mediocre
standing of many of the nominees for other
Offices. We did not, therefore,, eractly look
for the nomination of Henry ]. Gardner for
Governor, but supposed that man would
be put up, who should be the equal of Gov
ernor Washburn, in some respect, besides
devotion to the interests of the wing party.
We take the following notices at random, as
a specimen of the manner in which the nomi-
nation is received.
The Springfield Republican, Wing, says:
The selection will not tend to strengthen
or harmonic the party, nor is it among the
exceptions to the general fact that the nomi-
nations of this new organization, in this
state, are of an unfortunately mediocre char
acter. They do not compare .farorably with
the candidates OF estter OF the other parties,
either Of this year, or any preceding gear, in
ability and general fitness for the public SER
vice; and the result is likely to show that,
with, otherwise, the best chances possible for
carrying the state, the know-nothings will
fail through the exceptional character Of their
candidates. The strength Of new and earn
est organization, in opposition to old and fee
bier ones, will undoubtedly prove powerful
but we cannot yet believe that it will prevail
with the intelligent people Of Massachusetts,
to carry into office men totally unequal, either
IN natural or acquired capacity, for the right
discharge of the delicate and important duties
Of the government of the state.
The Boston Telegraph, of well known pro-
cliyity to Know Nothingism, says
The Chronicle speaks very kindly of Mr..
Gardner, and intimates that it thinks his can
didacy will be successful. The friendship of
the Chronicle is easily accounted for Mr..
Gardner is a Hunker, Webster Wing, and
is strongly opposed to the liquor law, against
which he voted in the Legislature. We pre-
sumo that good many Of those Wings and
Democrats who are opposed to the anti-slave.
ny agitation, and to the liquor law, will vote
for Mr.. Gardner, In preference to either Mr..
Washburn or Mr.. Bishop. 1t is several wears
since the conservative portion of our citizens
have had a candidate in the field who SO ex
actIy represents their views.

HEAVY DEFALCATIoN BY A BANK OFFICER.
1t is rumored that the first teller of the Ocean
Bank, New York, is defaulter to the extent
of $4,000. A letter from the Cashier of
the Ocean Bank states that the deficiency of
the paying teller of that bank is not over
$4,000 1t also states that the bank has a
surplus of 5000; that its capital will be
little impaired, and that there will be no in
terruption of business. McGuckin is the
name of the teller, and the defalcation arises
out of certified checks.
