Tas TRADE IN HUMAN FLEsH.--The
following statement is calculated to
produce a thrill of horror in every
feeling heart. Where is Wilberforce'
Arrival of Another Detachment Of
Factory Girls.-Among the passen-
gers by the ship Star Of Empire,
which arrived at this port on Wednes-
day, from Liverpool, were about sixty
Scotch girls, engaged to work in the
factories here. They were mostly
young, neatly dressed, and some Of
them are quite good looking. They
were forwarded to Holyoke, their
place of destination, last evening, via
the Boston and Worcester railroad.
Boston Trareler, Oct. %.
The poor children, torn from the
parental roof, and from all other en-
dearments of native land and home,
and sold to New England cotton
spiunsrs, without benefit of the ha6cas
corpus, or Hiss Committee, are "iOr-
warded to their destination without
the special wonder of single philan-
thropist in Boston. If they only
had been destined to raise cotton
instead of spinning it, what an uproar
there would have been in Faneull

A correspondent at New Braun
fels, Texas, writes to the New Orleans
Picayune:
In the course of last week this
section of the State has had a fresh
visitation in the shape of grasshop-
pers. They came upon us suddenly,
full fedged and full grown, ready fol-
their work of destruction. The ele-
ments, air, earth, and water are full Of
them, and the way everything green
disappears before them is a caution to
some bipeds / wot of. One week ago
we had the finest garden / ever saw
at this season of the year; but now
okra, tomatoes, turnips, peas, beans,
beets, and even onions are gone, and
the spot where they were looks as if
a prairie fire had swept over it. If
you have ever seen bees when swarm
ing, you can have some faint idea of
the numbers of our new visitors. The
locusts of old could not have been
more abundant.

PURCHASE OF CUBA-A letter from
London to the New York Courier and
Enquirer, inform the public that the
purchase of Cuba by the United
States is possible if the litter will
give two hundred million Of dollars,
one. half to be applied to the liquida-
ton of the foreign debt OF Spain, and
the other half to the liquidation of
the home debt. One hundred mil
lions of dollars is about one-ffth Of
the face value of the foreign debt Of
Spain. which stated in full is 9l00,-
100000, but the faith Of Spain is of
such a nature that the bond-holders
would gladly accept one hundred
millions of dollars from the United
States as full payment.

Presidents Message.

It appears from the letters Of
Washington correspondents, that the
Message will not be sent out to press
in advance Of the mails. We ap.
prove most decisively of this policy,
as it will leave no room for special
favors to preferred presses by those
who happened from their position,
to be able TO secure the first copies Of
it.
The correspondent of the Balti-
more Sun gives the following con-
lectures in reference to its contents:
It is not probable that anything
in regard to our foreign affairs OF
special importance will occur, within
week after the Sd Of December, so
as to require modification of the
message, unless indeed Mr.. Buchau-
ans dispatches expected tomorrow
should not be conclusive upon some
points. In that case, the message
prepared for Monday or Tuesday, the
Sd or 4th, might bold a very different
tone from that which further advices
might suggest. The message will,
in no probable event, be other than
of an amiable temper in regard to
our relations with foreign nations.
1t is said-and is quite probable
that the message will present and
enforce the views of this administra-
tion in regard to Central American
affairs. Upon this subject no new
policy and no new preteLsion can be
put forward Oh our part. The pres
ent Executive, upon its accession to
power, took the ground that the right
of eminent domain over the Mos
quito coast is in the State of Me
aragua. In document submitted
to Congress in 1858, Secretary Dob
bin states that San Juan del NOrte
is, according to the view of this
government, within the rightful juris-
diction of Nicaragua.
Thus we ignore and resist the claim
and pretensions of Great Britain to
any jurisdiction in San Juan or
elsewhere, in virtue of her Mosquito
prOtectoral. There is nothing new
in this position on our part, for it is
the same which was taken by the
Taylor and Fillmore administrations
There is no reason to expect any
difficulty on that score-until one OF
the other party shall attempt to
assume exclusive possession of the
territory in question "a purpose both
parties disclaim.

eiple that "Americans shall rule

The New York Journal of Con

The New York Journal of Com.
merce proposes "a resubmission by
Congress of the conflicting claims Of
Reeder and Whitfield to the people
of Kansas" There are no conflict
ing claims" whatever involved in the
case, for Reeder has no legal claims
at all. Whitfield was elected without
serious opposition at an election le-
gally called by the Territorial Legis-
lature; while Reeder was chosen by
an unauthorized assemblage, having
no other authority than the call of a
party meeting! For the Southern
Representatives to submit to Whit
fields rejection on that miserable sub
terfuge, would be disgracefnl in the
extreme.

The Prayers of the Church. The
Portland (Me.) Argus says: We are

olution was passed in subtance as fol-

"Whereas, several of our brethren,
at the recent election, voted against
the present State Administration,
therefore,

churces be requested in their behalf,

Observation-Disclosures
the peaceful statements of the Wash.
lington press, there are indications
that our government is preparing
actively for soma naval demonstration
in the West Indies. According to
the New York Post, there is consider
able movement at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard just now, and it is ru-
mored that the Secretary of the Navy
has given orders for the immediate
equipment of the sloop of war Fall
mouth, as well as the new unfinished
lrigate, both, it is said, destined for
the West Indies. The U. S. sloop of
war Cyane has already gone to join
the squadron on the same station,
and the U. S. frigate Potomac, the
flag ship Of the Home Squadron,
will sail to-day from New York for
the West Indies. Here are two yes
sells certainly known to be destined
for that region. and two more rumored
to be. Considerable activity is also
manifested in the Philadelphia Navy
Yard.
