18th instant, we have the following items
of intelligence:
Great enthusiasm prevailed regarding the
contemplated celebrated of the independence
of Chill on the 18th September, for which
unusual preparations were made.
Among the events to take place on thai
day were the lighting of Valparaiso with
gas for the first time; the Inauguration il
Santiago of several benefcent socities; the
creation of savings bank; the annual exhi
b1tion of national industry; and some othel
projects. President Mott was also to be in
augurated on the 18th and il was expected
that he would install an entirely new Cab

Congress continues in session, and have
approved the following projects. the stand

NEGRO RESURRECTION IN ARKANsAs.-We
learn from the Memphis papers that there
is great excitement in Union county, Arkan-
sas. on account of the discovery of a plot
among the negroes to rise in rebellion on
the 18th of this MONTH Fortunately the
plot was discovered in time 10 prevent one
of the most bloouy massacres in the whole
annals of Instructions. The plot was very
extensive, and the negroes who were taken
up and made to confess, implicated others
twenty miles off. Some of the negroes say
the rising was to take place the day of the
Presidential election. The men all beng
from home on that day, the plot was to mur-
der the women and children first, and tn en-
attack the unarmed men at polls. Several
white men have been implicated, and notii-
ed to leave the country in a given time, OF
be hung. The letter states that on the Co
dorado the excitement is intense, and that
several negroes have been hung Tine plot
seems to have been very extensive, reaching
as far as Texas.

FIVE RAILROAD CARS BURNr.-Between
eight and nine O'Clock last ight fire broke
out in a cattle car on the Pacific Reilroad
near the Fourteenth street depot, and the
flames were speedily communicated to the
loaded train adjoining, and the passenger
cars. Two of the latter were consumed and
three freight cars, two of which were loaded
with assorted mercandise for Jefferson City
and the other with secondhand furniture
for Hermann. The passenger cars cost
about $4,000 each, and the freight car:
about $500 each. The furniture is estimated
by the owner to be worth $500. The loss
in merchandise cannot be ascertained al
present. The fire is said to have originated
from the sparks of locOmotive.-St. Loui.

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT "A man
supposed to be about thirty FIVE years Of
age whose name is not know n. was killed on
Friday evening last on the Locust Point
Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
His body was found lying across the track
His head was completely severed from the
body, his righ, hip torn from the socket. his
right leg broken below the knee, and his
face multilated in such a manner that he
could not be recognized. From the fact of
his arms being covered w it'll India ink it is
thought that he was seafaring man. 1t is
not known how he came to be upon the track
unless from the effects of liquor. and it is
thought that several burden trains passed
over him. None of the engineers were
aware ofthe accident His body was found
by small boy. who. in walking along, STUN

Sad Calamity.

men lost tn If lives.
Between tWe;ve md one O'Clock, a fire

The building being flied with Conipu>tibe e

with its entire contents.
The saGiest feature Of the occurrence j.
the supposed burning o six men who were
sleeping in the building. Quite a crowd
had collected around the fire witnessing lis
progress, when some on suddenly remeul-
berrd that ten men, hands in the establish
ment, were sleeping in one of the upper
rooms. In moment the greatest excite
ment prevailed. Buckets OF water and lad
der5 were brought, and eiicien; IN n in the
crowd exerted themselves to rescu, the un-
conscious sleepers from their appalling sit
uaton. BY great effort and consider
able risk, one man entered the burning hui d.
ing, a>cended to the roo .. where the sleep
ers were lying, opened the door and raiss q
the alarm. Four of the men were reused
and succeeded in making their escape. The
remaining six are missing, and are supposed
to have pershed in the fl ;mes. Mt one
of them vas seen on the ground, nor have
they been heard from since.

The Sugar Crop,

The coming crop will doubtless be the
shortest, in proportion TO tie extent of
ground cultivated, that has occurred since
1885 when the yield was estimated at 3O,-
600 hogsheads. There has been gradual
changing, for some years past. from the
sugar culture 10 that Of cotton, for we find
by Mr.. ChampOmier's statements, that while
in 1852 there were l4Sl sugar houses, in
1855 the number had been reduced to 1899,
showing decrease in three years of .lSs
We also know there has been further ma
teral decrease this year, but the great fall
ing off in the crop is relerabe to the dam
age from the'remarkable continuance of cold
and wet weather during the past winter, by
which the raitoohs or stubbles were almost
entirely destroyed, as well as much of the
plart came, before or after planting. Un-
der the circumstances some planters plough
ed up their fields and planted corn or cotton
or both, and will have no cane. Others will
perhaps make enough to replant for another
crop, while some having light soil or we'll
drained lands, and having been favored by
seasonable showers. may approach a fair
average. These will have an excess Of
cane beyond their requirements for re- plant
ing, but whether they will sell rom their
excess to those wanting plants, instead of
making sugar, and to what extent, we have
no means of estimating. At all events the
crop must be short cne--doubtless the short
est since lS43--as the extreme estimate
named is I25 900 hogsheads, while some
mark as low as 80 coo hogsheads, an amount
altogether insufficient for the requirements
of the West alone, and calling for a large
import of foreign sugars. In accounting
for the decline in the production Tor years
past, it is probable that it may be IN some
degree (possib!y very important one) al
tributable to the deterioration of the plant
from the partial exhaustion of the peculiar
qualities of the soil necessary for its sus-
tenance. Should this be the case. it wond
be we'll for planters to supply the deficiency
b. the application of the proper manure

Slavery tie Strongest Bond c

Our Union would not have lasted twent,
wears but for Southern Slavery. The N0rii
has ever been dependent on the South, an'
other s!aveholding countries, for cotton
rice, sugar, wheat, corn, coffee. tobacco, ant
q hundred other necessary agricultural pro
ducts. The South, from tbe Character o
her soil, her climate, and her labor. has
found it, (and will ever find iD TO her ad'
vantage, il the North be just TO her, to buy
anuectured articles and foreign msrchan-
disc from the North, and to employ Nor
thern shipping.
England avoids war with us, svowedly,
because she cannot dispense with the pro-
ducts of our slave labor. Our North is de.
pendent on US as England is, and in hun.
tred ways in which England is not. Unless
shs should come under the rule of the mad
senseless and desperate mob, there is NJ
danger of disunion. She and England are
as much Shareholders, SO far As profit Oh
