TGoLD AGAIN.-Richland County

excitement consequent npon the discove-
ry of Gold near Belleville, died away,
before it was renewed by similar discov-
cries in Bloominggrove. The following,

deferred last week:
Messrs, Robinson & Locke Sever.
al returned Callfornians were induced by
observing accompaniment of Gold in
the banks of Ships Run, to examine sew
eral places closely, and in doing so, took
out several particles of gold. They then
commenced operations with their pms,
and out of two pans full of black SAND
obtained four dollars worth of gold. These
discoveries were made upon Toxby De
vore's farm. The excitement is consid
erable.
To-day, two more returned Californian
prospected along the bank of Sniplowl
Run, and found more Cold than in II,
same washing in California. The excite
nent is intense, and the Gold is her

THE Salem correspondence of the New
ouryport Herald, after aIluding to the
fact that the Know Nothing movement
has thrown the other political parties in
tina, State into q rather confused condi.
ton, says:
1t may not be amiss, however, that
this idea has seized the public mind. as
it will serve 10 regulate more permanent
parties, and stop the infamous bids for
foreign votes. and ! will venture. that in
the next Presidential struggle, we shall
not find one candidate proving that he has
Irish blood in his veins, or the other tell.
ing how much he loves the Irish brogue.
If any general here after hangs Iish de-
ser!ers. he will moi deny it, and if send we
another army to Mexico, we shall no more
order the soldiers to uncover and kneel
before the priests than to call the priests
10 suppress the next rio. we have at home.

WASHINGTON, Aug. Is.


The recent events in Spain lend to the
Cuban question fresh and momentous
interest l,is extremely doubtful wheh.
er the Government of the Queen, in any
form, will be able sustain itself.
Ilis not easy 10 sustain throne which
has been toltering for nearly century,
or to inspire faith ir a government which
has so often and so wantonly, broken its
pledges.
On the other hand, it is equally clear
that The spaniards, in common with other
Romanic races, are unfit for republican
government if established it will be Of
short duration.
A change Of dynasty, therefore, is most
likely to ensue. To the oriental question
in Europe will thus be added the acc.
dental question.
Will the new government of Cuba be
more favorably disposed toward the sale
Of Cuba than the old one That is doubt
full, but i, may be more embarrassed.--
The new government will undoubtedly
want money, and i, will not dare to levy
new taxes on the people, for fear to lose
its popularity. What then is to be done!
Cuba is desirous of being independent
bu! the Cubans do not wish 10 be bough
and sold. What if they were 10 make Q
bid for their independence-pa eithe'
SO much nancy or an annuity for so ma.
ny years? The new government o.
Spain might accept such proposition
from its own colonists without degrada'
ton. in the spirit of liberty.
Cuba having no ready money, the Gu
bans might ask the United States to ad
vance it TO them, or we might undertake
to guarantee its punctual payment. This
would lead to negotiations with Cuba
!, and finally 10 treaty of annexation
sgains. which no European power woult
have the slightest pretext 10 protest.

x e. CUBA GERRETs SMITH.-Hon.
Gerrel Smith has been one of the most
consistent Aboli.ioniss Of this country.
But he is loosing caste with the political
Abolilionist on account Of his opinions OH
the Cuba question. In regard to Cuba,
Mr.. Smith says
Let her come, even eue,a if she piN not
previously abolish her SLAVERY. | am will
ling to risk the subsection of her slavery
to common fate with our own. Slavery
must be Short lived hing in this land.
Under our laws rightly interpreted, and
under the various mighty influences at
work for Liberty in this land, slavery is
TO come 10 speedy termination. God
grant that it may bea peaceful one.
With the slaves Of no part Of the world
have sy mpathised more deeply thar with
the slaves of Cuba, for theirs is the cruel
es, and most brusifying Of all types OF
bondage. Practically, American slavery
is not so bad as Spanish, though in the
ory it is more absolute and abominable
than any other. Happily for its victims,
American slavery encounters, and is mod.
fled by, a higher civilization than that
which, prevades the dominions of Spain,
and rejoces in Spain, and rejoices in bull
fig hts. As an Aboli.ionist, then and as
oaa who feels pity for every slave. /
should be glad to see the condition of the
slaves of Cuba bet,ered by the subs itu
ton of American usages and American
influences for Spanish usages and Spanish
influences. And who knows but Ameri.
lean laws, in regard to slavery, will, ere
long, be rightly inserpre,ed?' The hope
. (hough no. s,rong) that they may be,
and the fact tha. thereby American slav'
ery would be "short-lived." did some.
: wh at encourage me, as the reader of the
? speech in question has seen, "io risk tht
subjugation Of Cuban Slavery TO a com
mon fate with cur own.'
Again, as an Abolitionists, desire th'
!. annexa ion of Cuba 10 our country, be
, cause that would end the connection 0
Cuba with the African slave trade
and would, also, go far 10 end that trad
everywhere. ! do not forget the charg
, that American shareholders are in favor Q

Blu, know that the charge is nonsense
