Latest from Havana.

From the Charleston Courier.
The Eabe! has Just arrived aud brings Us the
latest dates from Havana.
The Moro and Cabana forts at Havana are to
receive some eighty guns.
A Creole had been denied 4 passport to 20 to
the United States with his son for education.
At Il ball given on board the Columbia, the
attendance of CreOles was slim, as they were
fearful of being suspected by their government
as favoring the United States.
An enumeration of the population, and the
amount of cash in possession, had been dcman-
ded by the authorities. An enrolment of the
inhabitants is, also, to take place.
!Assassinations have been more frequent in
Havana recently.
There was 4 report current in Havana, when
the Isabel sailed, that the authorities had sent
on board the United States ship Columbia, to
know if the Commodore intended to salute the
Spanish Flag, TO which he replied his had been
insulted, and that be never saluted any FLAG that
had insultcd his, and until the difficulties now
pending were settled, he would have no cons
munication with them.

Convention.

Parson BHowNLow, editor of the Knoxville.
(Tenn.) Wing, among other distinguished men.
| attended the Commercial Convention now pro-
! crossing in Charleston. The Courier Of that
city, in its report of the Convention, gives an
abstract Of his speech before that body, from
which We make the following extract:
He PEARSON Brownlowl had addressed the
people along the road on all questions, for at
home in Tennessee, he was a general superin-
fendent of religion, morals, politics and agricul-
ture. (These interests, accordingly, are well
attended 10 in Tennessee.) He concluded BY
referring to an Old historical incident. Soon
after the landing of the Pilgrims, y number of
them, who penetrated some distance in the in.
terror, held "a Convention" and adopted, as i,
saiG by tradition-for our reporter ras not
hers-the following resolutions:
lst. Resolred, That the Earth is the Lords,
and The fullness thereof.
I'd. That the Lord designed the earth for the
use of the Saints.
Sd. That we are the Saints.
Mr.. BfOwnlow would amend the resolutions
so rs to read thus:
LIST. That Cuba is the Lords and the fullness
thereof.
Cd. That the Lord designed Cuba for the
Saints of the South.
I'd. That we are the Saints Of the South.
The resolutions brought down the House
from the third tier to the pit.

a very short time. His bearing and manners,
however, have been courteous and gen,lemanly,

crate feelings will exist between US. His wri.
tings, from what we have seen, display an easy

VIgor and ability will be given to the columns
over which he is now presiding. We heartily
wish him a peaceful and a prosperous path in
he thorny vocation which he has assumed.

In its proper place, will be seen a Municipal
Ticket for the ensuing election, which, we I'M
derstand, has met the approval Of some of our
best citizens who have seen it. 1t requires but
a glance for US to sanction it at once, as far as
We are individually concerned. If the naming
of the Ticket by US would be sufficient to en-.
sire its election, it would be different from the
one presented. We must look to the chance
of election, and not throw away our votes. AS
no one can have his par,ialities realized, it is the
duty of each to support the best Ticket that is
offered.
Every gentleman on the Ticket presented is
not only capable, but will doubtless make it his
special business, if elected, to attend strictly
to the interests of our town. The gentleman
who handed US the Ticket for insertion, has no
farther interest in it than every good citizen
has--that a ticket of good and competent citi-
zens may be chosen. He is not q candidate
himself, nor in any way connected with the pa
tronage in the gift of the Council.
Politics, we trust, will be entirely discarded
in this election. Iii seen that it is not allow
ed to influence our action. When parish or
corporation interests are ut stake, political feel
ing should not prevail. SO, we trust that the
Ticket alluded to will be accepted by our citi-
zens without another thought upon the sub.
ject.
Since the above was in type, we received the
following communication, through the Postof:
fee
Editor Braa5urn In a short time an election
Will be held to elect a Mayor and Aldermen for
this town. Who the candidates are 10 be for the

gible and competent as any other who will accept

The Turf.

We understand, says the Picayune, that Mr.
Boyden has become sole owner of the famous
horse Highlander, at d cost Of something over
five thousand dollars. Mr.. Boyden has bought
of Judge Hunter of Alabama, the racing quali-
ties for the Northern summer campaign, of
his fine filly Blonde, for $4,000. Blonde vii
go into Mr.. BIS stable under the control of the
Judges trainer--Mr. Andrew Jackson Miner.
The rest of Mr.. BIS Observation-Disclosures, 5
years old; Compromise, 6 years old; Terrifyer
and little Arthur, S years old, will BE- trained by
Fowler. This stable is, we believe, now en-.
route for Baltimore.
MI. Ten Brock has bought the other half of
Lexington at $4,000. lie, with Arrow, as a
stable companion, is now on his way to Eng
lane, ria Kentucky and New York. We
regret to say that Berry was in wretched con.
dition and did not start while here. His com
panion Charley Riley, proved himself about a
third rate horse. They have left for Canada,
where the climate is, perhaps, better adapted to
Mr.. Hendrickson's mode Of training.
1t is said MIR. Field has employed Mr.. Small
to take chrrse of his horses, Flea, Jim Barton,
and the Wild Irishman. This stable will soon
proceed TO kentuckey. Capt Minor has sold
Mary Taylor for $1,000, to Messrs. Towles
and Campbell. She will also go to Kentucky.

will be pleased to learn that the ladies con.
nected with the Presbyterian Church of our
town, contemplate having a Supper and Fair
at the Seminary, on Friday evening next, the
2sth inst. The notice before US says that the
doors will open at half past seven, and that
the entrance fee and for the supper will be each
my cents. We do not know the object of the
Fair; but who doubts its purity and the good
1t will accomplish, when conducted by the fair

Every BOdy's Country.
From The Crescent.l


The blessed effects of making ours every
body's country except the natives, are now de-
monstrating themselves abundantly, upon still
larger theatres than even that of an cleo.
ton day in New Orleans. Every body wants,
of course, to govern US; we are to run after
every ones interests and liberty except our
own; we are TO take all the world quarrels on
our hands; to be the game.cock of all fights, the
bell. the cat of all dangers, and, in short, to be
at once every bOdy's Providence and every DO.
dy's fool. The Hungarians are to govern us;
the Poles, the Italians, the Cubans, the Irish,
the Turks; and we are to belong to the whole
world, and be no matter whose bondsman. If
any one cant do his own work as a citizen or a
freeman, we must do it for him; and as soon as
it is asccortaineu that a nation can't or won't
govern itself, t shall forthwith govern US. We
are thus to be slaves jn general; but to be more
particularly slaves to an e~i.slaveu people.
Nor is this all. Seeing that we are a free
people, every private individual that has been
worsted anywhere and at anything, expects to
take US into his service and to dictate to u.s.
klnkel orders US to Germany. Garibaldi to
Italy, kossuth to Hungary, Lopez to Cuba,
Mitchell to Ireland; and, bv way of makinp This

By-the-way, how comes Kossuth in London,

Turks, with that puissant arm of his. He came
away, we suppose, about the time of the battle
OF S!nope. When there's a smell of eunpow-

only be reasonable and forbear to hurt each
