ANOTHER TERRIToRY.--The New Yor
Tribune says the inhabitants of the Gadsden
Purchase and portion of New Mexico lying
West of the mountains and South Of the ella
River, are preparing to ask Congress to separ-
ate them from the Territory of New Mexico,
and form them into Territory by themselves.
For this purpose they have elected delegate
to Congress. vino will present their petition at
the next session. How much of New Mexico
they desire to have included within the new
Territory, it is not informed but the advo-
Gates of the separation say that the country
is naturally divided, by the Intervention OF
deserts and mountains, into two States or gov
ermental Jurisdictions. The Gadsden Purchase,
or Arizona, as the residents sometimes style
it, contains total population of a thousand
persons, of whom one-half are Indians, and a
third Mexicans Of a very low class. The rest
are Americans and Germans. The principal
village is Tucson, which aspires to be the
capital of the new State. There is fort in
the vicinity of the place, with a small garri-
son of United States troops.
No questions in regard to slavery in this
new territory will be likely to arise. Situated
along the Mexican line, black slaves could not
be retained if introduced; and peonage being
a much cheaper form of labor, no desire for
slavery can arise.

England and New Granada.

England watches with jealous eye all the
American movements on the Isthrnus She
is evidently fearful that our country may gain
some commercial advantage in which she may
not participate. AS soon as our commissioner
at Panama Mr.. Corwin, urged upon our gov
eminent the absolute necessity of taking
measures to protect our citizens in their pas
sage over the Isthmus from one section of the
Union to the other, and to secure. the vast
American interests that were endangered BY
the imbecility of the local government, and its
inability to protect foreigners from the depre-
dations of their own citizens, England is
aroused at once, and becomes suddenly urgent
in her demands for the payment of a petty
claim of one of her citizens for 100000 on
the Granadian Government. The Granadians
procrastinate; and plead many excuses, all
but the real one, which was probably inabil-
ity to pay. The English minister was mex
orable and peremptory. The poor Gran
adams offered security, but nothing but half
cash, and balance in ninety days" would be
accepted. AS this could not be done the
Granadans had to run the risk of provoking the
Lions wrath; and the British minister was
permitted to leave Bogoda unsatisfied; and or
ders were given to the British fleets, in both
Oceans, to rendezvous and cruise on both sides
of the Isthmus; we presume to watch both
the Granadians and the Americans. England
having thus trumped up an assumed cause of
war, with her fleets on the station, she is
ready to interfere on any pretence that may
serve her purposes.
1t is surmised that Mr. Dallas's recent
treaty contains some provisions for the mutu-
al guardianship of the Isthmus, which will do
away with all Jealousy and rivalries between
the two countries, in regard to the control of
the Panama Route. 1t is question of as much
Importance, as delicacy and difficulty. A mu-
tual guarantee Of neutrality would be better
for either party than actual, exclusive posses
sion of the route.

0TThe Louisville Journal, speaking of the
Rhett letter to Governor Adams and the ap-
prevail which it meets with in South Carolina,
says: South Carolina is burying herself ire
coverably in the public contempt. 1t is i'm
possible for any impartial lover of his country,
for any just thinking man, to witness her
senseless and quenchless malignity against
the Union without the most Unreasonable
disgust and scorn. She is one vast hot-bed
of disunion. Her people think and talk of
nothing else. She is a fostering mass of trea-
son. And yet, if we may judge from daily
indications, the President elect is about to take
his leading constitutional advisers from the
ranks of this insufferable school of traitors
1t is pity that the people of this selfish and
rebellious State, could not be transferred to
the Capes of Florida, and then cut off from
the Union.

FREE STATE PR1soNERs-The telegraphic
report of the acquital of all the prisoners who
were indicted for an attack on Hickory Point
was partially incorrect. Twenty of them
were found guilty of manslaughter, and were
sentenced by Judge Lecompte to five years
imprisonment, at hard labor in the peniten-
tiary; and it is said, they will be set at work
on the public buildings at Lecompton, unless
the Governor or the President intereres. If
this sentence is carried into effect, it will cause
a rebellion, as it is asserted, the free State par
ty will not suffer it.

has treated the foreign enlistment question

~ Coal has advanced in Louisville to 40
cents per bushel, by the quantity. The citi-
zens of Evansville now feel the benefits OF
drawing capital to themselves from abroad,
and enlisting the enterprise Of persons from a
distance to deyelope their resources. To Mr..
Kersteman, who opened our coal vein, the
citizens of this city are under strong and last
ing obligations, and if the spirit of enterprise
that first brought him among US, shall now
lead him to other regions, his name will be
ever remembered associated always with the
valuable coal mine he has opened for our use.
The sncerest wishes of all, for his prosperity
and happiness, will go with him to the new
scenes of his labors. We commend him most
heartily to the kind regards, and fostering aid
of those among whom he proposes to cast his
fortunes, as gentlemi worthy of their en-
tire confidence, and as one who will return,
by his enterprise and abilities, to the commu-
nifty, four fold, the benefits it may bestow on
him,

CYcLoPED1A OF TRAvEL.-We have received
a very handsome volume from Messrs. Moore,
Wilstach Keys & Co., Cincinnati, entitled the
Encyclopedia of Modern Travel" which in
cludes the pith of the variations of the most
distinguished travellers of this century, pre-
pared and edited by Bayard Taylor, himself,
the most extensive traveller Of modern days.
The present work is the substance OF
ninety volumes of travels by various persons
in almost every region of the world. 1t con-
tains $50 pages, and is illustrated by variety
of cuts and maps and is one of the best books
for family entertainment for the long winter
evenings, that we have seen this season.
Now that the farmers have ended their labors
of the harvest, a better reward for the boys
that have done their work well, could not be
found, than a copy of this book, which will
both amuse and instruct them.

of paper bags for grocers' use by machinery.
The machine cuts the paper, folds it and
pastes the edges; the bags are then taken on
leading strings and carried over heated steam
pipes and dried, and are thence borne by the
same lines into another room and discharged
into heaps, ready for use. A machine pro-
duces 10000 bags per day of every variety of
sizes. The invention attracts good deal OF

" The Commissioners Of emigration in
New York, report that during the month Of
October, there were landed at Castle Garden
$40 foreign emigrants. who brought with
them $1,276,516, being an average of ST., 40
each 1t is estimated that about $15,OO0,OOO
is brought into the country annually by for
eign emigrants. There is no estimate to be
made of the aggregate sum sent out of the
country by immigrants, after their settlement
here, to aid poor parents and relatives left be-
hind. From the amount of exchange sold in
one to ten pound bills, by some of our Bankers,
it is evident the amount lost will double the
sum received. But the benefits or evils of
foreign immigration are not to be measured by
the money they bring or send away; but by
the moral and political influences they exert.

the sales of the confscated property of the
Church. Notwithstanding the protests and an
athemas of the priesthood. The sales are

Church, have the option to purchase until the
25th of November. After that date the prop
erty will be open to public competition, and
sales will be made by auction. The amount
of the sales already made, is about two and
quarter millions. There are 129 Religious

There are twenty seven others, whose proper
