From the New Orleans Picayuno
ST. DoMINGO--IS 1T WHITE OR BLACK:

There is at the present time evident effprt
being made to cement q cUnnexioh between this
country and the republic Of st. Domingo. The
design is, indeed, not only now commenced. 1t
has long been entertained, and for some time exer-
tions have been made to prosecute it to q result.
But it woul appear at this moment to be progress
sing more in accordance with the hopes of thos9
who have been urging it, than for some time il
promised ever to do.
We believe that no statesman, even Of tie
new world, of any real profoundness of acumcn,
now doubts that it is anything mor9 than quesi
ton of time and manner as to ihc bringing of the
whole of the West Indies under the government
of this continent Certainly we do not, and
certainly we believe may say no American
statesman can. And we believe the time to be
rapidly approaching too, in which that result is to
commence to manifest its advent by the annexation
Of the more important islands.
1t bchooves us, however, carefully to examine
every step taken in thar direction, and not to
plunge rashly and iniurously towards object:
lncongruOus elements must not be introduced
cannot be introduced except by gross treachery-
into our institutions. Is there any possibility Of
that being done should the progress towards tbs
annexation Of Sahto Dom;go be ihpradently or
troachrousy fastened?
Undoubtedly there is. Santo Domingo is as
truly a negro republic as liayt is a negro empire:
The majority Of its Inhabitants are negroes, in the
strctcst acceptiOn of the erm and all of tIe M arc!
more or less, of mixed blood. a few whites there
may be amongst them, but only few; indeed, the
exceptions are barely enough to prove the rulos.
And how shall any political connection be formed
by the United States with such government of
community Even the most fanaticaf Of northern
GLolitionist, we should imagine, could scarcely
hope, either by force or fraud, to cause it to be
formed. And yet no other object which
the actors in the present moyeme can possibly
contemplate At all events, ,he probability OF it's
being 50 is so great, that we cannot think the few
observations we have mad on the subject either
misplaced or unreasonable.

For tho Bugle.
AN INFIDEL.
"JonN, THEY CALL THEE AN INrIDEL."

"JoHN, THEY CALL THEE AN INTiDEL."
All yes, an Infdel stand
And Infdpl | wish to be,
To all the churches in the land.
Which crush the life of liberty.
Wide scattered DER the earth, we find,
Almost MS thick as stars above,
With creed to fcttcr down the mind,
And quench the fount of heavenly love.
What mean those toiling millions there,
On southern landscapes strcw their tears
Is there no faith in Christians prayer?
Is there no God in heaven who hears?
Behold your towering stccples, high,
From which you thunder errors forth;
Gods holy laws ye DO defy,
From east to west from south to north.
Ah yes, you, Priest and Lcvito like,
Do pass the toilng millions by;
And sermons preach, and essays write,
That Slavery camo from God on high
Go burst the chains and bands asunder,
Which binds Gods image to the earth;
And from your Zion's pulpits thunder
That all may feel the heavenly birth.
Go lift the toiling, painting slave,
From thraldcm's deepest, darkest night:
And let your heavenly gospel save;
No more poor Africs soil toblight-
And take a high and holy stand,
con Hions bright and howery mount"
And lift the poor of every land,
And lead them to the heavenly fount--
All yes an Tnfdel stand,
An Infdcl wish to be,
10 all the churches which do band,
To crush the soul Of liberty.
Bat in that holy law of love,
In which inspired penman wrote,
My faith is firm, and works will prove,
Like Moses when the rock he smote.
There is no book, that can contain
The half of Gods most holy laws;
But on each mind is written plain,
Inshining light, not mems applause;
We then, the holy scriptures read;
And then the power of God do feel;
And love inspires to every need;
The Holy Ghost these scriptures seal
Noparehment scroll, nor ink and pen,
Inspired by God on high, that can
Unfold the law of love so sweet,
As when the mind these visions greet.
Your bibles here do fragments hold,
: nd gems of shining holy, light;
But inIerspersed thus with the gold,
Are errors fraught in darkest night.
Then let Us search The bible DER,
The whole of Gods eternal laws,
Not half contained in Hebrew lore,
Not yet revealed exempt from flaws.
An Infdel ye say am,
And thus would crush my spirit down,
That l should deign, your works to scan:
fcaryou not in smile or frown,
The even terror of my way,
I'm firmly bound to pass and tread;
care not what your churchmen say,
Nor how they frown upon my head
The toiling slave, hear his cry,
And see your churches crush him down,
Forth to his rescue then fly
Till freedom, all our efforts, c7onp.

Who can doubt, after reading this affecting obit-

divine?

CONGRESS-.

In the Senate, yesterday, three bills of no
public interest were considered and passed. A
bill for the establishment Of a western arsenal
at Memphis was reported. The greater part
of the day was occupied in executive session.
In the House of Representative, the bill
authorizing the Postmaster General to contract
for carrying the United States mails between
New Orleans and San Francisco, was discussed
during the morning hour. The Speaker laid
before the House q message from the President
of the United States, transmitting documents
relative to the questions at issue between this
government and that of Spain. The general
appropriation bill was taken up in Committee
of tie Whole on the state of the Union, when
Mr.. Preston made speech in favor of the
Nebraska-Kansas bill, and Mr. ,Gerrit Smith
one in opposition to it.

THE NEW JERSEY ZINC CoMPANY,s
PAINTS.

We call attention to the advertisement of the
New Jersey Zinc Company's paints, published
in to-day's paper by Messrs. John Sullivan 4
Sons, of Baltimore, who are acting as agents
of the company.
When the cheapness of these paints and
their great durability and beauty are considered,
it is not risking much to prophecy that in q
few years they will supersede all other cover
ings in use for the protection of vessels houses,
metals, and woodwork of every description.
Their other merits are of still greater impor-
tance. We are assured that they are entirely free
from poisonous properties, while paints made
from lead, in all their preparations, are known
to be destructive Of health, and often of life.
The New Jersey white zinc paint, even when
exposed to coal-gas, bilge-water, and sulphurous
vapors, retains all its original brilliancy and
whiteness; while lead, on the contrary, quickly
turns yellow. Occupied houses may beipainted
with the white zinc, without annoyance to the
inmates from the ordinary offensive smell,
which attends such an operation with the ar.
ticles heretofore used. Apartments just painted

Supreme Court.-A case Of much interest,
especially to the denomination Of Methodists, is
now pending before this tribunal. 1t will be re-
collected that when the Methodist Episcopalians
separated in their general organization north and
south, the question of division ofproperty was agl-
tated between them, the south claiming their equi-
table share Of the book concerns, which, for reasons
satisfactory to themselves, the north withheld.
The subject so far as concerns the extensive es-
tablishment in New York, was, after hearing in
the highest court Of that State settled by arbltra-
ten but recently, to the qualification of both
the interested parties. With regard TO the west
era book concern, located in Cincinnati, Judge
Leavitt presiding over the State court Of Ohio at
Columbus decided against the church south.
This case is now in argument, on appeal, before
the Supreme Court Of the United States. Able
counsel are engaged, and the proceedings excite
much interest, Judging from the many auditors
daily in attendance.

may be slept in with impunity; whereas it is
we'll known that chambers should not be occu-
pied for two or three months after being painted
with white lead. 1t is more hard and durable
than white lead, and is easily kept clean by
,cashing; while the other is soon destroyed by
exposure to the weather, and requires to be
frequently secured, which soon removes the
paint.
Having frequently heard these facts before,
and with no better motive, we confess it, than
curiosity, we were induced few days since to
examine series of experiments made at the
Gosport navy yard by James Jarvis, esq,
naval inspector, by order of the Bureau Of
Yards and Docks. The experiments TO which
we refer establish the fact, most conclusively to
our minds, that the government has had
offered to its notice the finest marine paint in
the world. Specimens of metal and wood i'm
mersed for long time in water have been left
by Mr.. Jarvis with Commodore Smith, the chief
of the Bureau of Yards and Docks, and with
Professor Henry, secretary of the Smithsonian
Institution, and they have been kindly shown us
by those gentlemen. Wewere both gratifed and
surprised at the wonderful results which they
exhibit; and we can state confidently that the
New Jersey white zinc paint is the only re-
liable coating against the ravages of the
"teredo," or marine worm, and the adhesion
of barnacles or other coral deposited. In thus
protecting and keeping clean ships bottoms
and having valuable and durable paint for
all other purposes, we may almost predict a
revolution in marine affairs
We trust that the enterprising company,
which has with so much labor and expense in.
troduced these paints to the notice of the
government and public, will meet the reward
which their efforts so eminently entitle them to.

of the vehicle passing over him, one Of his arms
