Gently, and In friendly manner, suggestions
have been made to the Spanish Government
that it should send a small Spanish division
to the Crimes, the whole expense Of which
should be charged to the account of France
and England. In consideration of this, the
two nations pledge themselves to Spain to pre-
serve she integrity and peace of her American
possessions 1t is, perhaps, on account OF
these negotiations that d Antonio Gonzales,
our ambassador in London, has not ALREADY

We are informed that the new Spanish Gov.

The Spanish Chambers were discussing

Horrible Affair.

SEVEN PERSONS MURDERED.-The Wabash I'm
dIan") Gazette, extra, contains an account of the
discovery Of The bodies of family Of seven per,
sons, near that place, by the name Of French who
had been brutally murdered. 1t appears the fam.
lily consisted Of French, his wife, and five chi.
dren. They were very poor, and lived in cabin,
and in September last another family, of the
name OF Hubbard, went 10 live with them, Dur.
ing October, a neighbor proceeded to the cabin 10
see French, and was told by the Hubbards that
the family had moved away, and that they had
purchased all their corn, garden produce and fur
nIure valued at not over $50 No suspicion OF
foul play was aroused, until recently, when the
Hubbards were arrested on suspicion of murder
ing man named Boyles. The house was then
searched, and portion Of the ground floor dug
up, which resulted IN the finding of the dead body
of an infant, very much decayed. The Gazette
then, after referring to the summonng Of a coro-
ner's inquest, says:
In the presence of large company they pro-
ceeded 10 examine The place where the infant had
been discovered, and horrible to relate, found sew
en- bodies, consisting of the entire French Family :
L her skulls were all broken in, and the legs Of
the old man French and his wife were broken, so
that they could be doubled up and forced into the
hole, which was three or four feet deep, They
were laid in heap-the father and the mother
at the bottom, and the children on top. The babe
was about fifteen months old. There we're three
girls and two boys. The children were much de-
cayed, but the parents were still sound, and were
easily recognised by those who had known them
There is not the least doubt that the Hubbar ds
are guilty of this wholesale and damning murder.
1t Is almost too horrible for belief, but facts are
as above stated. and the conclusion is irresistible
The Hu5bards are all in Jail. There seems to
have been no other motive than obtaining what
lie" worldly goods this poor family possessed,
which were not worth over ffty dollars!

Hon. Geo. Bancroft was in Raleigh, on Friday
last, on his return from a tour through Florida,
South Carolina, Charlotte, Salisbury, Greensboro
and Hnlsboro. The Standard learns that he
evinced deep interest in Charlotte, as the spot
from which the first declaration of American in.
dependence was sent forth to the world; and that
he visited and spent some time on the battle field
of Guford Courthouse. near Greensborough.-
He anxious to visit the University, and 10
pay his respects to Gov. Swain and others of the
Faculty, but was compelled by want of time, to
forego this qualification.

The Future.

We are no croakers, no prophets of evil, and
whilst there is bright side remaining to any OBJ.
ject, if it be only sPeck OF blue sky in the
cloud covered heavens, we desire TO look at it,,
and to see the star Of hope shining through it,
But it is the duty Of the mariner, who would pre-
serve his vessel from destruction, when he sees
breakers ahead, TO give the signal, and the press
Of country ought in like manner to lift up its
voice, when danger is near, danger to the govern.
ment, TO the Union, and even to life.
We have read of great naval battles, 10 which
the combatants were absorbed in their fierce
struggle with each other, tina, a war of the eIe-
ments began to rage without attracting their obser.
walton, and the bowling Of the hurricane and the
roar of heavens artillery, did not drown the
thunder of their own furious strife 1t was onIv
when masls and yards came crashing about their
heads, and some gigantic wave involved them in
common wreck, that they discovered TOO late
their danger.
In like manner it is to be feared that the politi-
Cal parties OF the country, in their exciting
fare with each other, will forget the terrible perlls
which threaten the ship of State in those schemes
OF abolition and disunon which never were as
formidable as at this hour. The next session Of
Congress will witness such an onslaught upon the
outworks to the Southern citadel as the country
has never yet bcheld, nor even imagined. The
trials and dangers Of the past have been as child's
play TO the storm which will howl around the fed
eral capital next winter and rock it to its founda-
tons. II becomes patriots Of every section and
OF every political creed to unite in a solid pha-
lanx for the defence and deliverance of the Re-
public. Whilst parties pouring their broad.
sides into each other, let the big black clouds that
are rising in the North, lest, in the midst of their
contentious the ship Of state shall sink to rise no
Unconstitutional DISPATCH.
