ANOTHER INDEPENDENT LETTER FROM LIVE
OAK GEoRGE--HE is NOT TO BE BLED.-We
cheerfully make room in our columns today
for a very characteristic sort of letter from
"Live Oak George Law" on the important
subject Of bleeding for his party. 1t win be
seen that, apart from the contingent expenses
of councils pamphlets, banners, &C., &c, Live
Oak George is not to be bled--that If be
knows how to make money, be knows how aud
when to spend 1t, and when to take care of it.
In fact, those active members Of the Americ an
party who have been counting upon fleeing
,the great contractor out Of hundreds and
thousands. "for the good Of the cause" are
completely dished. George Law talks pretty
much, upon tive subject, in the vein of old
General Taylor. He is neither to be bought
nor sold; but If elected to the Presidency he
will endeavor to dl' scbarge bis dsty. That's
fair Let him stick to that, and let the YAM
pyres who would bleed Vim "for tae cause"
read bis letter and beware Of attempting it.

coming from Jeddo, and begging permissioa
to remain, that they might visit the five con
tinents" Their letter, as given by Col. Spald
ing, is exceedingly touching and although
Com. Perry could not possibly take the 10
on board his ship, yet 1t is to be
lamented that he did not interfere in
their behalf with their government, and
save their lives. When last seen by DR..
Wilson, U. S. ~. they were in iron cages, OH

paid with their lives for their temerity When
the Russian frigate Diana was wrecked in the
harbor of Simoda, in February last, the despot-
ism OF the government was exhibited in new
way. Hundreds of the people who were carried
out into the bay by the dreadful earthquake,
in the recediDg waters which swept away the
town, refused to avail themselves of ropes and
planks thrown to them to save their lives,
knowing that, if saved by foreigners they would
be executed on landing, agreeably to their
laws. Gould greater honor OF greater glory
the instrument of breaking down such a miser-
able system of despotism
It is obvious that the people of Japan are
anxious to trade with us, and to receive us
kindly. 1t is the government only that is OPP
posed to us. Let Us ask tor nothing but what
is right, and submit to nothing that is wrong"
and we will answer for it that we will accom-
plish all that we have in view. Of all Eastern
travellers, no one understood the Asiatics so
we'll as NJ Hue aud it is to be regretted that
our naval officers had not adopted, to o greater
extent, his cool and determined, yet, in the
end, kind policy. On the occasion of the per-
sonal insult to Com. Biddle, instant and ample
retaliation should have followed, and the ia
panese have been compelled to sign treaty,
under the guns Of the Columbus drawn up in
the spirit and character of Decatur's treaty with
Tripoli. A different policy was adopted-one of
courtesy, politeness, servile attention and valu-
able presents. For this we have been repaid with
treachery, duplicity and deceit. The treaty of
Kanagawa turns out of no avail, either for pro-
lection or for commerce. Neither Simoda nor
Hakadoda are safe or available ports and
Jeddo has not yet been visited. Osaka, city
of 100000 of inhabitants, and good port,
easy of access, could we doubt not, be opened
to foreign commerce. Let new efforts be made;
let us profit by past experience and past errors,
and let frmness aud justice take the place Of
servility and over-delicacy. 1t is only by con-
duct of this kind that favorable impression
can be made upon the feeble and vacillating
minds Of a people like the Japanese. They
must be taught to respect and fear us before
we can hope to make friends Of them.

OUTSIDE PRESSURE ON THE Council. OF FRI
TEEN-The Senate of the United States has
lately received several petitions, remon-
strances and memorials from distinguished vic
Tins Of the Navy Retiring Board. These
documents are exceedingly interesting, and
we regret that we cannot publish
them in ertenso. We have, however, extracted
those parts which bear upon the lives aud ser
vices Of the gallant officers, and they are given
in this paper.
The Council of Fifteen has done a great
deal Of harm, but it has also dug Its own
grave in the opinion of the public, and
given the American people an opportunity to
obtain some iasts relative to the naval history
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1856-01-28

of the country which would not otherwise have
been brought to the light of day. The memo
rial of Lieutenant Maury is an able and for
chile paper precisely such document as we
should have expected from that gallant officer
and illustrious sacdn. The account of the SER
vices of Commodore Jones will also be found
exceedingly interesting. After re ading these
accounts, we think that the acts of the Council
OF Fifteen will be unanimously condemned by
the Grand Council of Twenty-Five Millions of
American People; and that is the real tribunal
in the matter after all
At this time we particularly need the ser
vices Of faithful and well-tried officers Our
navy, as managed by the present administra-
ton, e pitiful burlesque, and its turbulent
and disorganized condition is in painful con-
trast with the efficient feet managed by Great
Britain

were NO other proofs Of this than are to be
found In our intercourse with the Indians, they
would be sufficient to establish the truth of the
averment We have not only treated the lat
ter as freemen, but recognized their nationali-
ties; and yet our contact with them has re-
duced them from millions to few thousands;
and while we have advanced in all the arts Of
civilization, and have taken them under our
national protection, they have become every
year more helpless. immoral and degraded
All this shows clearly enough that something
besides mere trigid national guardianship ia

The present Congress has occupied eight
weeks without effecting an organization. A
large party of its members has struggled to
convert it into an insane asylum, with one of
the craziest Of political lunatics for chief doc
tor, and it is yet to be shown that their oppo-
nents do not require the advantages of such
IN institution to bring them to their right
minds This very matter of slavery is the bone
of contention. It has made its opponents luna
tics as men. traitors as citizens, criminals as
legislators, neglectful and dishonest as agents.

charge OF bribery occupied the attention of the Court
of General Sessions during Friday and Saturday,

that it was impossible for them to agree upon
