Our Senior is absent.
At the recent session of the School Ex.
aminers in this county Sd teachers receiv.
cd certificates. This looks promising.

.4OT The Teachers Institute held in this
place last week was much better attended
than formerly. We are glad to see an in
,serest manifested by the teachers from diff
ferert parts OF the county in sustaining
and attending Institutes; but the subject
does not yet receive the attention which its
importance demands. 1t is a deplorable
fact that our county has long needed the
services of competent teachers, and it is
our deliberate conviction, that aside from
"a regular course Of instruction under good
teachers, County Institutes are the best
medium for instruction accessible TO those
engaged in teaching. 1t would be highly
gratifying to see present at every session
Of the Institute held in this county, every
ssaohsr who has been, is, or may be en-
gagged in the business Of teaching the
young ideas how to shoot"

snain and the United States.

According to a letter in the New York
Times, Gen. Espartero, The head OF the
new Spanish Government. has had several
interviews with Mr.. Soule. and has in
formed him that the Spanish cabinet will
do its best to settle all matters OF differ
ence having pecuniary character. and as
to questions of national honor and digni-
ty, the United States cannot expec, any
greater satisfaction than in the fact that
the impeached government, at whose
hands Spanish subjects have suffered in
justice, has been driven out by a popular
rising. As to Cuba in particular, there is
no Airicsnization in view, but no purchase
is Hkely-,he government being confiden,
that. with an honest and liberal policy to-
ward the coIonists, they will become more
useful and better satisfied dependencies OF
the mother country than they have been
hitherto.

A Negro Emperor.

Some years ago, Faus,in /, who now
wields the imperial soep,re over San Do
mingo, worked in the sugar and coffee
fields for his owners. under the unpre-
tending name Of Soulouque. 1t may not
be uninteresting to know that the former
master of the present emperor is an old
and highly respected citizen Of this place,
and from time to time he receives friendly
messages from his old slave. A week or
two since, he was pleasantly surprised
with the receipt OF several bags OF coffee
and package OF sugar accompanied by
quite an affectionate letter from his impe-
rial majesty. 1t would appear that the
parvenues of San Domingo differ from
those of America. Soulouque's good for
tune has neither obliterated the renem-
brance Of his former condition. nor check.
ed, or diminished his old affections. st

For The Spirit of Democracy.

MIR. EDIToR-Is this a christian town?
If so, why do we, sometimes, see troops OF
cruel boys in the streets and on the public
square, torturing small and helpless ami
mails, such as rabbits. squirrels, birds,
&c. :? Such scene is shocking to hu-
manity. and infiiots exquisite torture OH
every right-minded man who beholds it.
None but an atheist can doubt that inten-
,ional cruelty to animals is a damning
crime against that God, the common Fa.
ther Of all, who made these inferior crea-
lures, with bodily feelings very similar to
our own. Moreover, what kind of school
ing is this for the rising generation! Will
ruffianism, brutality, cruelty in the boy,
suddenly change into generosity, benevo-
lence and politeness in the man, as he
comes to maturity? Parents, believe not
such a proposition for moment. lfyou
suffer edious dispositions to grow and gain
strength in the hearts of your children,
you may expect them fin ally to break out
in their conduct towards their fellow men,
with all their bitter consequences to them
selves and to society,
There is still one other consideration, !
mean character. If citizens look upon
such hateful sights, strangers and travellers
will sometimes be spectators also. My
fellow citizens, are you willing to have
such exhibitions? Parents, look to this
Preceptors and Sunday school teachers
look to this. If you love mercy" teach
it to your sons and to your pupils. that
they may love il too. A CITIZEN.

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF Mr.. VAN BUREN,
The Paris correspondent Of the New York
Evening Post writes under date of Oct.
4th, that Ex-President Van Buren, is al
Vevay, in Swiizerland, earnestly at work
upon his autobiography which he has ad-
vanced some two or three hundred pages.
The writer adds that it is not designed to
publish the work till after Mr.. Van Buren's
death, "and tha, event. judging from his
present appearance and condition, will be
many years hence" Upon this iniorma-
ton the Evening Post remarks:
"Mr. Van Buren's life has been q sing.
ularly eventfui and instructive one. and i,
is due both to himself and his friends thai
he should leave some written records o
those portions especially Of his career to
which he alone has the key. MIR. Van
Buren has had wider political experience
and held more exalted public stations than
have ever been held by any other person
in the country since the formation Of the
Government. He is the only person who
has held its four highes, Offices, President
Vice President, Secretary of State. Minis
ter to England. He was also United
States Senator. Governor Of the State O
New York, Attorney General of the State
State Senator. and Surrogate Of the coun
ty Of Columbia.

The writer tries to rob Baltimore of the
merit Of tolerance by saying that i, was
provided in the charter. This is true, and
it is also true as is clearly shown by Chal-
mers that Baltimore wrote the charter and
wrote it just as he wanted it.

again in the Alien and Sediton Laws" ="
The same feeling which he now manifes,s,
the same doctrines which he now promul-
gates were the parent Of those laws and
sentiments which swept them from our
statute books will repel them now ;ha, they
appear in a new form.

that s'thete is no foundation whatever, for
the rumor that the fire originated from 4
spark from a locomotive. In tho course
Of five years. with some thirty trains day

An American Vessel Fired Into.

The Providence Journal publishes the
following extract from a letter received in
Providence, dated Rio >Janerio, Sept. 9th:
"Tbe vessels in port are the bark Ne
vada, last from Rio Grande, and the brig
Paragon, from the same port, in ballast,
waiting freight; the ship Tejuca, loading
for New York. the steamer Bay City, in
distress, bound to San Francisco, and un-
der sail. Before this reaches you I ex-
pect there will be sensation in the States,
because OF her having been fired into by
the English brig Bonita. The Consul has
had the matter under adyisemeni, and
proper papers have been forwarded TO our
Government. X seems THAT the man Of
war, being to leeward.. fred three blank
guns for her to heave To-; thereupon, with
his colors flying, Capt. Wardie hauled his
fore and jib sheets to windward, lowered
the peak Of her fore and aft sails, and
waited for him to come sp, when three
shots were fired in succession. The first
fell short, the second came within ten feet
of her loot, and the last passed between
the fort and mainmast. On the boat reach.
ing the gangway, the Englishman enqui-
red who was the master, when Capt.
Wardle answered that he was the man.
He then asserted that the steamer 8 mon
were all drunk, and in surly manner do.
manded why he did not heave to. Capt.
Wardle answered that he had done SO be.
fore he had fired a shot. Hispapers were
examined. when The English man, noting
in the steamers log the fact Of boarding
him, left. There is a Russian frigate
somewhere on the coast. and the English
are out looking for him. -
