LATER FROM HAVANA.

The Havana correspondent of tho New York Cou-
rier and Enquirer, under date Of May 20, writes
q A panic has prevailed in share market for
several days past which is understood to have been caused
by the revolutionary tendencies which have been recently
exhibited in Spain, the nows respecting which

duced on the shares of the various newly formed joint

observation extends, the position is taken by
the blackTepubican press, without solitary excep-
ton. No difference of opinion as to the origin and
authors of the riot no hestancy of expression to
the necessity of military force and entire unanimty
in commendation of the Executive, no less for the
promptitude he evinced than the means he employed
TO yindcate and sustain the majesty of the law which
had been so ruthlessIy outraged
As an evidence of the manner in which the dread
full occurrences of last Monday are viewed by the
democratic press of the country, we make room for
the following temperate and well-considered notice
which we find in the Richmond Enquirer
''we had hoped that the spirit of insubordnation,
which rampant and rotous in several sections Of
the country when wnothingsm endeayorng TO
absh itself had waned with the falling fortunes of
gerng Sam But the last shrek of the dying victim
is the loudest and most unearthly in its sound with
this abortiye effort of the enemies of liberty and law it
carries its characteristics TO the grave and turning TO
ceive its deathbow brandshes its budgeons and
to accomplish by violence what its principles and policy
have proved utterly incompetent 10 attain
1.-The scenes enacted in Washington city Monday
were worthy the Parsian popuace in the midst of
luton Not only were stones and clubs employed but
pistols and knives in the hands OF the murdeTons mob
were brought into active and with effect that was
visible in pools of blood and men manned and killed in
the streets OF the metropolis of the United States.
y Inc ponce OF the city Judging from ue accoults
that have reached us, did their duty bravely. But
they overpowered by their assaants, and the
mayor of Washington, with commendable prompt
ness having formally requested the President to or
der out company of marnes-a request with which
his excellency expeditiously compliedthe brass gun
was taken and the rioters routed but only after vol
ley of musket balls had been fired amongst them
II is due however to the city of Washington to say that
il seems the instgators of the riot band of plug
uges' from the disorderly city of Baltimore This
PLANTATION may extenuate the offence but it is far from
being acceptable for the conduct of those law
breakers in Washington who united with their confreres
from Baltimore and perhaps invited them to partc
pate in the election riot.
''The employed for the suppression Of the
indispensable to the security Of persons and
property And if there could be any objection urged
against the military proceedings it would be only
gret that they did not fire and aim accurate
ly, as it is very sad to learn that, with two excep
ons the persons who shot peaceabe citizens
either passing by or quietly looking
g Reason and remonstrance are lost upon such men
And when engaged in their rioous revels the quicker
few shot down. the better it is for the safety of worthy
and exemplary citizens"

THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH,

The North and the South are conjonty fulfilling
destiny the most phianthropic and benefcent that
has ever fallen to the lot of nations. The great mis-
sion of America to feed, to cothe to employ to fur
nish comfortable homes and subsistence to the sur
plus and starving population Of christendom, can
only be successfully enacted by the conoint efforts
of the free and the slave States. The agriculture of
the South furnishes much food and raw material for
manufactures for the North and for western Europe
Subtract her agricultural surplus from the markets of
the world, and instantaneous and universal famine
would prevail throughout chrstendom. But southern
agriculture is dependent northern commerce and
manufactures. No people can do double work. To be-
come commercial and manufacturing people the South
must cease to be agricultural one Her soil her
climate her rich and varied agricultural productions
the character of her labor the inducements to invest
capital in land and negroes the safest the most
independent, and, in the long run, the most profit
able of pursuits forbid the expectation that she will
ever become distinguished for commerce or manu-
factures.
Some suppose that her network of railroads,
which, when finished viii connect her with the
North and the West, will vary her industrial pur-
suits and render her less dependent ON the free
States for those articles which she now procures
from them.
But these railroads will produce the opposite ef
feet They will make agriculture profitable where it
is now Improbable, by diminishing the expense Of
transportation and will build up stores, villages
towns, and mechanic and manufacturing establish
ments in every mile of their advance They will
greatly increase the dependence of the South upon
the North, and of the North upon the South Already
we perceive that Massachusetts farming declines
quite as rapidly as Virginia commerce. We see it,
and rejoice at it; for each State is enlightened and
prosperous each sagaciously pursuing those avooa-
tons that suit it best and eaoh though quar-
relling, becoming every day mutually depend

rosr OFFICE APPOINTMENT AT BOSTON.

We announced yesterday the appointment of Ma
hum Capen to the Office Of postmaster at Boston We
do not intend to institute comparison between him
and his competitors, ifhe had any But we desire to
state that we think the President has been fortunate
in this selection, and has very properly conferred
upon Mr.. Capen this evidence of respect and con.
6dence. Mr. Capen has never before held office, but
has devoted his attention TO useful literary abors for
the last thirty years. He has edited large number
of instructive works and has been the author of many
others published without the addition of his name
His historical and political writings, in beauty of
style and cearness and force compare most fayora-
bly, with those of ablest writers. Although not
extensively known to the public, the productions of
his pen have received high commendation throughout
the United States, and they have also given him
European reputation, Those of political character
have been most able conclusive and effective. When
add to such evidence that of high personal worth
and energetic business habits, we think that the ap-
pointment does credit to the Executive, and must
give satisfaction to all who feel am interest in the
office.

Governor Walkers inaugural address to the people
of Kansas has been received. 1t is long, concatory,
and persuasive document 1t recognises all territorial
enactments and says all constitutional laws shall be
ecuted It urges all parties to participate in the election,
and believes the convention will frame constitution
which will suit the people, and docs not believe that Con-
gress will reject it, 1t earnestly prescs the necessity
of removing the slavery agitation from the halls Of Con-
gress and presidential elections and says slavery will ul
tmately be determined by the law of climate is this
law now operating for and against slavery in Kansas
In the event that slavery does not exist in Kansas it
says she constitutional duties her sister States
pecally to Missouri and trusts the constitution will
tain clauses forever securing to that State all constitution
al guarantees both by federal and State authority and
supremacy within her limits by the authority of the
Supreme Court of the United States 1t says that if this

by history but that if violence injustice, and fraud
reign, history may be compelled to record the fact that

Ex- GOVERNOR VIM. SMITH.

We met yesterday this faithful and long tried
champion of democracy in the street, fresher and
more buoyant than ever for the little brush of
opposition by which the old opponents of de-
mocracy and few of the discontentcd of our own
party sought to defeat him. The question of dis
tribution was also put forth to the people in this
district. His whig opponent and the papers in his
support made the most Of it. The discontented
and factious democrats worked with untring zeal
and perseverance to accomplish his defeat But the
only practical result was to put him fully up to his
metal, and to give him signal triumph by a
more imposing majority than he had ever before at
tanned in the district. gentleman who heard his
last address to the people of Orange county informed
us that it was one of the most eloquent, powerful,
and mastery political addresses that he had ever
heard from any And he declared at the mo-
ment that it would increase the ex-governoris vote
by hundreds. And such, in fact, was the pleasing
result.
And here again the democracy Of the Old Domn-
ion illustrate their adherence to the principles and
doctrines of the party They spurn the nsdious
brbe, in the name of distribution, offered to their
fidelity, and return their old and faithful Representa-
tive by largely-increased majority

HON. CHARLES JAMES FAULKNER.

This able and faithful representative of part of
the Tenth Legion of Virginia democracy has again
been returned to Congress, under circumstances as
complimentary to himself as they are honorable and
praiseworthy to the democracy who have elected
him. The opposition which was raised against him
was most formidable and fierce. A gentleman of
high standing and ability, of large experience in po
litical affairs who had formerly represented the dis
trict very faithfully and acceptaby in Congress-
man whose devotion to democratic principles had
never been questioned, and whose constancy, it
was supposed, nothing could shake--was his com
pettor In moment of msjudgment--cer of
Observation-Disclosures embraced the unconstitutional
and herecal doctrine of distribution. He went be-
fore the people on that issue. 1t the prominent
issue, and in fact the only issue Of the canvass and
he prosecuted the canvass with unceasing zeal and
ability.
Mr.. Faulkner met this effort against him, in the
first place, by address to his constituents,
tanning one of the best arguments against the whole
doctrine of distribution which we have ever seen
He gave history oft, from the beginning, collect
ing everything that had been said against it from the
time that it was first presented to the country This
he followed by personal addresses in every part of
his district, meeting his opponent whenever it was
possible till the day of the elections and the result
was, that in place of 2Ol the majority which he got
in 1874, he now getsa majority of 2l50 Upon great
question of principle he gets majority of thou
sands where before he had only got hundreds Thus
they honor their representative, and they honor
themselves. They reward at the same time his fdel
ity and ability, and illustrate their own immovabe
and Interchangeable devotion to the old doctrines and
nrincinIes Of the democratic party

SPEECH OF HON. H. W. HILLIARD.

1t is with great pleasure that we lay before our
readers this morning the admirable and now widely
read speech delivered by Hon. Henry w. Hiard
at Montgomery, Alabama in the month of April last.
To the language of contemporary, sit is full OF
wit, sarcasm eloquence manness, and truth" Mr..
Hilliard long enjoyed deservedly posi-
ton in the whig party of its most trusted and
eloquent champions He subsequently joined the
know-nothngs, but, having feelings principles
in common with that dangerous organization, he
abandoned that order and enrolled himself under the
democratic banner at time when the help Of all
true patriots imperatively needed His speech,
rather sef-yndication under these circumstances,
possesses at this time peculiar interest.
