the Mayor who has directed his officers to see that

POLITICAL TROUBLES IN CUBA.

| 1t is almost impossible to obtain from the
| Havana correspondents of New York papers
| any reliable account of the real state of af-
| fairs in Cuba. We have seen, however, a
| letter in the New Orleans Picayune, from the
Rev. Theodore Clapp, the venerable pastor
of the congregational church in that city, in
| which, IS far as it goes we are disposed to
place full reliance, from our personal know
ledge of the writer. Mr.. Clapp, who has
for thirty seven years, OBLIGATED as the pastor
of one of the largest congregations in New
Orleans is now on visit to his native State
of Massachusetts. On his passage from Mo-
bile, the vessel in which he embarked, stop
ped at Havana. There, eighty passengers
were added to the company, consisting most
ly of Spanish gentlemen with their entire
families, whose chief motive in leaving
home, Mr.. Clapp was informed, was to es
cape the political troubles which are expect
ed to prevail more or less in Cuba the ap-
preaching summer. 1t was stated to MIR.
Clapp by several American gentlemen who
have lived many years in Havana, that a
great panic exists throughout the whole pop
ulation of the island, the belief being univer-
sal among them that the Spanish govern
ments intends to manumit their slaves to
subject Cuba to African domination and all
the horrors which now desolate St. Domingo
and Jamaica. Mr.. Robertson our acting
Consul, told Mr.. Clapp that every steamer
for the North was crowded with families of
foreign merchants and Creoles, front karious
parts of the interior, professedly departing
for the United States and Europe in pursuit
of health or recreation, but in reality fleeing
from their homes to escape the utter de-
struction of all that is dear to man on earth
life, liberty, subsistence and social happi-
ness.
The declaration of the government that
the absolute equality of the white and black
| races is an essential doctrine of the Christian
religion and the alleged authority given the
Captain General by Spain to declare the i'm.
mediate abolition Of slavery in case of inya.
sion from the United States, naturally spreads
panic among the whole white race It is
moreover believed, that the emancipation of
slavery is resolved on at any rate, even
though the United States should scrupulously
avoid interfering in behalf of the Cubans.
Mr.. Clapp observes in conclusion ITO me
it is elf-evident that this matter has most
portentous bearings upon the welfare and
glory of the Southern States in our Union
If Cuba is converted into an African Repub-
lie, it will expose to indescribable peril the
vital interests of Louisiana, and the adioin-
ing portions Of this Confederacy Of all the
decisions that prevail in this day, the idea of
tae immediate emancipation of our slaves
is, perhaps, the most monstrous and alarm
ing. 1t involves policy directly at war
with the dictates of true philanthropy, sound
morals, the highest civilization and the sub
FINEST principles of our holy religion"

RAISING THE WIND

Mr. Thomas Barring, the leading represen.
tatlye of the money classes in the House of
Commons, made an unsuccessful attemnt on
the 22d ult,, to amend the resolution of the
Chancellor ofthe Exchequer, mr. Gladstone !
authorizing the Treasury to issue Excheouer
bonds. He supported his motion by very
practical speech. The London Times comes
to the rescue of the Chancellor. The plau
of the Chancellor is opay for the war yea,
by year, and, to increase the taxes to 20 mil
lions year. rather than increase the capital
of the English debt. Mr.. Barings idea is
that this plan is inexpedent. and his amend
ment 80 declares.

providing the best things that can be had, but
he understands fully how they are to be
properly prepared for his guests, and he has
them so served up. For the angler we

THE CITIZEN

We trust that the agent of Mr.. Mitchell,
who is now in our city, obtaining subscrip-
tons for the Citizen, will everywhere re-
ceive the encouragement that capital jour
nal deserves. That paper should not only
receive support from every one who sympa-
thises with Ireland and from every one who
sympathises with genius nobly struggling
against adverse fortune, but it especially de-
serves Southern patronage, as well on &C.
count of what it has done for the Southern
cause, as for the efficient aid which it will, as
heretofore, render to their cause of right and
justice. We have always believed that an
influential journal at the North, which would
represent Southern institutions and Southern
men there in their true light, would &C.
complish more for the Southern cause than
all the journals of the South put together
The Citizen, paper welded to no section
but devoted to the interests and glory of the
whole Union, and of the South as part OF
that Union and conducted with the trans
cendant ability of Mr.. John Mitchell, is
just the sort of journal that Southern men
ought to encourage and establish as well 70,
their own sake as for that of the common
country -a.ss

Horse STEALING.-One of the meanest
charges that can be brought against white man. is
that of stealing horse. The bare mention of such
a crime, will set neighborhood into commotion.
and the miserable creature who is suspected of such
an offence, is just as apt to find himself dangling
from the limb of a tree OF making an exploration OF
the bottom of some frog pond as in any other con.
dition. Men who engage in such robbery
are generally OF the most depraved grade,
and it is natural, therefore, that the masses
should feel no sympathy with them On Sat
urday morning last young man calling him
self JOHN BURKE, and hang from Boston, was ar
raigned before the Mayor to answer to the charge
of stealing horse from Messrs. F. Ragland &
Bro, on Thursday night The horse, it appears,
was taken from the Messrs. R. g stable lot and rid.
den to Rockets, where it was turned into Mr. Da-
Wis yard by the prisoner, who had been riding it.
On being questioned as to where he got possession
OF the horse, he answered, on the premises where
he returned her-which was utterly untrue. From
the conduct this youth, it is not all clear to our
mind that he is entirely sane; and notwithstanding
the fact that he took the beast from the corner of
9Th and Marshall streets and rode to Rockets he
there turned loose upon the premises of another
man without making any effort to leave the city,
showing conclusively that he did not know what he
was about. When brought before the Mayor he
seemed to be in the finest humor Imaginable and
did not pretend to deny the charge which had been
alleged against him. During the whole of the ex-
animation, he kept up continual grin, and when
told by His Honor that he would be sent on to the
next term OF the Hastings Court for examination,
received the decision with a silly smile-proving
that he is either a great knave, or of unsound
mind
