AfrfcanizasiOn of Cuba.

La Verdad (the Cuban paper printed at New
York; comes out in a series of able editorials
in exposition of the British plan for making
Cuba q negro colony, under the jurisdiction Of
a "NTired Commission" This plan makes the
fate of Cuba subject to British will and policy,
but releases the British Government from all
responsibility for the outrages which its African
wards may commit on the lives and property of
the whites or citizens Of other nations. Eng
land is only the guardian Of these Africans.
Lord Palmerston proposes to COLOMBO Cuba
and the French and British West Indies with
savages from Africa, giving them land, and pros
tecting them in their free citizenship, but ma
king no provision for restraining these two or
three hundred thousand brutal negroes from
converting Caba into another st. Domingo, by
the bloody determination of the whites. In fact,
La FerdQd assumes--and ~sustains its position
with a startling array of official documents
that the direct object Of this British movement
is to reinforce the negro population, and drive
the whites completely out of Cuba, so as to
make il. in the language of a late member Of
the BritUh Cabinet, utterly worthless to the
Americans. The British press il certainly"
much occupied with plans for Introducing arr
mics of negroes from Africa into Cuba and the
other islands on our borders.

sLngularlx Deliberate Murder.

In Adams county, Miss, a few weeks sine e.
Mr.. Duncan Skinner, overseer for Mrs. Sharpe,
was found murdered in a mysterious manner
Last week three negroes were arrested and
proved to be the murderers. The Natchez
Courier says:
"The evidence collected, together with the
corroborating circumstances, show that this
was one of the most cody planned and delibe-
rate murders ever accomplished. The negroes
in the plot went TO Mr.. SINNERS house just
before day, and aroused him on p~retence of a
child in the family being sick. lie opored the
door, while in his night clothes, and was
knocked down by a blow on his breast from a
heavy stick. Three stalwart negroes seized
him, and after a.eVere struggle succeeded in
choking him.
"While thus insensible, they carried him
some few rods from the house, and there, by
main strength, disIocated his neck. They then
got out his clothes, dressed him, and, to turn
away suspicion, put his watch around his neck,
and his purse, with part of his money, in his
pocket, brought out his horse and saddled it,
put the ~lifeless body on it, and led it to the
woods, where the body was afterwards found.
Here, after running the horse up and down,
they took off the body, turned the saddle, and
set the animal loose. The latter returned
home a few hours after. The body of their
victim they placed in such a position as would
indicate the probability of accidental death; then
brought out his gun, cap, whip, and game-bag;
discharged one barrel, and placed several arli-
eles in the tracks as if of runaway horse.
$50 long a period had passed that the guilty
assassins imagined the crime was unnoticed
and would be forgotten. But a terrible and
speedy retribution awaits them. The whole
chain of evidence is complete as to the crime
its manner, and circumstances"

The Thibodaux Rridge.

The Minerva, in a notice Of the bridge over
the Lafourche, at Thibodaux, recently compile
ted, says it is noble superstructure, and adds:
The bridge is built after The How Patent
Truss principle; and the main or revolving por-
ton is 1873 feet long by Is feet wide in the
clear, resting on a solid pier of masonry, built
in the channel ofthe Lafourche, near the north
ern shore. The main opening for the passage
Of boats is 10 feet wide, being protected on
either side BY guard piIing. The approach on
the town side is % feet wide by IS in length
to the top of the levee; while that on the oth~
er shore is % feet wide by 80 in length, ex-
elusive Of the earth grade; making the whole
length of the bridge 1873 feet.
The bridge was designed, and all the work
ing plans executed by G. w. R. BayIey, Esq,
Chief Engineer of the New Orleans, Opelou-
sas, and Great Western Railroad. All who
have seen and inspected the bridge, agree in
stating that it is one among the most perfect
specimens of true mechanical skill that they
have ever looked upon, and a credit to all par-
ties concerned.

Another Democratic District Conuention.-
From nearly all the Journals printed in the
Third Congressional District of Louisiana, we
find that the last District Convention of the
Democracy at Baton Rouge did not result in
harmony, and that another convention. we earn,
will be called by a majority Of the Parishes to
adjust differences and promote union. We
mention these circumstances as items of politi-
cal news, and refer, as we have been requested
to do, to the official notice of the Concordia
Parish Democratic Central Committee, for a
meeting on Saturday, August 18th, to choose
a delegation to represent Coneordia in the

The Education Of Circumstances.--The Lon
don Illustrated Times, in a notice Of the late
Douglas Jerrold, says: "Certain events colored
his life. His birth and residence in London
made him a Londoner--his fathers profession
as the manager Of a theatre made him a dra-
matist--his early life at sea gave the true sail
orolike quality to his nautical dramas--his oc~
cupation as a printer first made him an author
and the tardy recognition of his Attachments
a sarcastic, not sour or savage man"
