LITERATURE DEBAUcHED TO SUIT SLAVERY.
The distinguished Baron Humboldt has
published letter complaining that j. S.
Thrasher in translating and publishing in
New York, his great work on Cuba, omitted
one Of the most important chapters, a chapter
to which Baron Humboldt says, he attached
more importance than to any astronomical
observations, experiments ofmagnetic intensi-
ty or statistical statements. The portion thus
omitted compares the Spanish laws regulating
slavery with those of our Slave States and
shows how much more cruel and attrocious
are the latter. This is the secret of Mr..
Thrasher's mutilaton of the book. Says
Humboldt 81 do think am entitled to demand
that in the Free States of the Continent OF
America, people should be allowed to read
what has been permitted to circulate from the
first year of its appearance in Spanish trans
laton." This is not singular instance, the
mutilations of standard literary and religious
works republished in this country in order 10
spare the uneasy conscience Of Shareholders.

IMPORTANT DIscoyERT.-A Boston paper
says:
"The master mason employed in the cO..-
struction of the M Ichants' Bank building,
Gtate street, Las discovered, on taking down
the massive granite pillars which adorned the
old structure, that each one Of them contains
a smaller column in its interior, much more
beautiful and. ornamental than the original
one. The old pillars were perfectly plain,
but those which are enclosed in them arc
handsomely huted, and possess an architect
dral grace which was wanting in the old ones.
Workmen are now busilyengaged in remov-
ing the superiuous granite which covers the
new columns, and developing their architect
ural beauty. The process, which is very
interesting one, is carried on in a small wood

PnY Of Congrcssmen.

Congress, prior 10 its adjournment, passed
law which is Of some importance to the
people and all congressional aspirants. 1t
was 10 change the pay of members from SO
day to SO, 900 year. Taking former ses
sions as precedent for length Of time spent
and this is allowing each member about SEQ
per day. The mileage fee is still retained un
der this new law.
The bill originated in the Democratic Sen
ate, which body adopted it, sent it to the Re-
publican House and there it became law.
The measure was opposed by members Of all
parties, and it was suppt rted by a similar va
riety of politicians. II was not party meas
ure, and therefore no persons are responsible
for it but those WHO voted for the bill. Some
domagogues have undertaken to throw the
odium of Ills measure upon the Republican
party btcauce they have a majority in the
House. But if parties are to father this obi.
GUS bill, the Democratic Senate must shoul-
der it, for there it originated, and there they
have a much greater majority than the Re-
publicans have in the House. So if you hear
n man trying to saddle that wrong upon Ell
lber party, you will be safe in setting him
down as an unprincipled political demagogue.
While we regret that any Republican was SO
shcit-sighted, so much more devoted to mo-
ney than to the interests Of their constituents,
as to vote for this bill, we are pleased to re-
cord the fact that the Ohio delegation almost
unanimously opposed it, our representative
being among the number.
A yearly salary is doubtless preferable 10
daily wages. Under it, members of congress
would attend to their legitimat. business and
not legislate the country into unnecessary
trouble to afford on excuse for prolonged ses-
sions. The only objection to the bill as adop-
ted, is the extravagant salaries it allows.

The AMERICAN LEGATION AT NAPLES
A correspondent ofthe Manchester Guardian,
writing from Naples under date of the 28th
of July, says:
"TLe American Minister, Mr.. Owen, has
lately received from the President of the
United States two massive gold medals for
presentation to Neapolitan subjects for hav-
ing saved the lives of American citizens off
Palermo, on December 80, 1854, in the gulf
of st. Eufemia in March, 1858. They weigh
together 20 o., aud are valued at R.000
francs. The gentlemen who have merited
them are Cav. D. Raffaele Gonzales, captain
of the Neapolitan frigate the Arch-
medes, and Signor Vincenzo D'Abundo, Of
the Neapolitan marine service. The medals
are, however, so large as not TO b. portable,
and therefore lose half Their value in the eyes
of south,ron. Mr. Owen himself suggest
ed to the President n small gold medal with
suitable device and inscription instead Of
which are sent two gigantic medals, which
giants of Brobdignag might hesitate to carry.
1t is curious fact that two gentlemen to
whom they were presented begged permis-
sion to have smaller medals made after the
same model, and TO wear them with the
American colors, request which was i'm
mediately conceded as far as depended upon
Mr.. Owen. I'VE cannot wear these said
one Of the gentlemen; mo one will know any
thing about them 1t shows the vanity of
the people and how easy it is to crafty it;
at the same time it betrays great national
infirmaty, inasmnch as it shows an apprecia-
ton of mere surface far higher than ofwhnt
/ is substantial"
