THE CHIVALRY REFUSE WESTERN RE
SERVE CHEESE,

In Cincinnati may be found the gentlemanly and
fair dealing firm of Straight & Deming, dealers in
groceries, prime W. II. cheese, and other matters
in the same line, too numerous to mention. Prompt
cd no doubt by the good qualities Of their cheese,
and the fair terms of sale offered by those gentle
men, n number of Southern merchants, II I'M
know;ngth risks they ran were in the habit Of deal
ing with them. Now it must also be known tina. Mr..
Straight is of a philanthropic turn on subscrip-
ton lists for soup houses, Relief Unions, and
Orphan A%sylums. his name may generally be
found, nor did he confne his philanthropic demon
strationS to the white race alone: thohuman brother
hood of the ~despised negro was also regarded. 1t
catne also in time that The heart of Mr.. Straight
was aroused by the heroic conduct, and the mourn
full fate of the poor desperate slave mother Marga'
ret Garner. And whep, in spite of the Wanted
State sovereignty Of Ohio, sho was dragged by
Marshal Robinson, and his drunken myrmidons, to
slavery, he united with others in presenting a
Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1856-05-03
A LAW IN CUBA.

The mildness of the Spanish slave.code in com-
parison with that Of the United States is proverb-
ial. An Illustration is seen in Il fact of recent
occurrence in Cuba, where several slaves, having
obtained a sum of money Ivy robbery, used it to
purchase their freedom. According to Spanish
law, these men, though liable to severe punishment
for the robbery, can never be again reduced to
slavery. Their liberty, though paid for with
stolen money, is hence,urth their sovereign and un-
questioned right. a correspondent of the Tribune
writing from Havana, gives another Illustration OF
the working Of this same aw.-Siandard.
"a negro slave had been condemned, by order
of the Court, to be sold at public auction to pay
the expenses Of his trial for some trivial offence,
his owner having given him up to avoid the respon-
sibility. The bidding commenced and the price
was soon run up to S400, and the poor fellow was
about to be handed over to the highest bidder,
When he interrupted the auctioneer by saying that
he would give that amount himself for his liberty.
The Alcaldc Immediately stopped the sale and or
dered the mans free papers to be made out IN due
form. 1t was soon done and the money paid over.
The negro seized the documcn and was just about
to leave the court, when he was rearrested under
the charge Of having stolen $500 from n shopkeepe"
who lived outside Of the walls. The Alcalde kind,
ly expressed his sympathy for the unfortunate
haberdashGr, and told him that his money was lost
forever, and that the only thing lie could do would
he to remand the negro to jail. This was done,
and the man was subsequently condemned to
twelve months hard labor in the chaln-ganE. l
have frequently seen him, since the expiration OF
his term Of punishment, working on the wharf as
steyedore. These facts need no comments. | hope
they may meet the eyes Of som of your Southern
readers, who lay so much claim to Christian feel
ings, for even they may learn a lesson of wisdom
from Spanish legislators. | lave heard several
Southern gentlemen say that if they ever got hold
of Cuba they would soon change the slavery system.
Yes, | suppose they would introduce the barbarous
laws they have Inherited from their ancestors, with
a few modern Improvements thereon! ! am much
afraid that their very humane wishes will never be
%gratifed. Abolitionism is gaining ground even in
Cuba. The planters see by experience that they
can get along very well without slave labor, if it
is only possible TO substitute the Asiatics. Several
very wealthy and intelligent sugar-growers near
Cardenas.. Mantanzas, and Puerto Principe, are
offering the best inducements to white laborers to
come and settle on their estates and cultivate n
certain amount of land on shares. Many have re-
sponded to the call and | shall soon have the pleas
uro Of presenting to your readers some highly
interesting information on this allimportant sub
I%iect."
