SLAVE TRADE.

In spite the stringent laws against the slave
trade, and twtI,standing the hollow prctenson
of the North against the brutality and iniquity
Of Southern slavery it is estimated thnt there
are about forty vessels engaged in this traffic,
most of which are built, fitted out, and manned
i'll Northern ports
This traffic is source Of great profit to those
engaged in it Hence the Yankee, provcrbial
for his inordinato love of money, quicts his con-
science with the "ring of silver" and readily
consents 10 become crusader against the laws
of his country Though this traffic is against
law; yet if there is truth in the recorded condi
ton of the negro i'll his native land, it works no
injustice to the African to capture and bring him
under the dominion and control Of the white
man.
Three -fourlhs of the African race, in their own
! land, belong to Chiefs, and slaves in the
most ncniul sense of thut term. Prisoners taken
in are held aud sold husbands will barter their
wives and children for rum.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

a correspondent of the Rochester Democrat,
writing from Niagara City, gives thrilling ac-
count Of the rescue Of man who had fallen
into the furious Rapids near the Suspension
Bridge. The writer says:-
''It appears that he was IL guest at the Lud
low Hotel, and after breakfast went out to view
the bridge. and proceeded down the prrilous
steps near Winners Touring mill, ON the bank
of the river. On renc!,ing the bottom. he slip
ped and fell into the water lst above the bridge,
and when discovered thirty or forty rods
below the bridge. near the shore, rolling over
and over, borne along by the rcsstIcss current
until he caught hold of large rock and after
some fruitlcss Struggles, succeeded in reaching
thc top"
There no way of reaching linn but by
means Of Il rope ladder. This was irnmcditc!y
procured and lowered over the projecting cliff,
IL depth Of one hundred feet, and Lccamc entan-
glcd among the trees and rocks. 1t was decided
that some one would have to descend to Olsen
| tangIc it. WILLARD Is. ConURS, Porter Of The
Ludlow Hotel, volunteered his services; he need
ed assistance, two other men went down, and
after working for an hour. succeeded in letting
down the rope ladder Il distance Of three hun
! tircd feet. When the ladder came in reach u

Diseooery;;-A highly important discovery
is said to have been made, namely, that the
material for silk will ere long be derived.
not from. the worm, but from the leaf on
which it has hitherto existed. It is said
that distinguished sauan, Signor Lotteri
has ascertained by experiment, that silky
substance can be realized from the bark and
leaf Of the mulberry tree, and that by mac.
Grafton. good silk as we'll MS excellent pa.
per may be obtained lherefrom. The een-
tleman named, Illuminating on the circum.
stance Of the silk worm living on one de-
'scription of food, came to the conclusion
thai . the silky substance mustllie not in
the animal, but in the vegetable matter. .
which supportedit. He therefore analyzed
The composition Of the mulberry leaf, and
by boiliHg It to a thick paste, produced
every description of silk in immense quan.

RAILROAD CONVENTION.

A Convention of citizens of South aud North
Carolina WAS held ut Cheraw, OH the first inst,
to consider the proprety Of extending Railroad
from Cheraw to the immense coal-fields of North
Guralina. The committee 10 whom was refer
red matters connected with this enterprise, seem
to have been deeply impressed with its impor-
tance, and after dwelling at some length upon
the inexaustible supply of coal, the cost of rais-
ing and transporting it to Charleston, showing
the profits which would result, they recon-
mended a resolution which passed the conven-
ton, viz: That Commissioners be appointed to
open Books for subscription at Charleston, and

GUANO IN CUBA.

1t was recently reported that extensive de-
posites of guano had been discovered on the
South side of Cuba. The Havana correspondent
of the New Orleans Picayune, writes as follows
in reference to the matter:
"Capt. Green and the guano commission have
returned from their cruise among the keys, after
an absence of three weeks / saw Capt Green
last night, and he showed me two specimens of
the article, said to equal the best Peruvian. II
was gathered in one Of the many caves with
which the principle keys are full. In their jour
ney they found in several places conclusive evil
dence that many cargoes have been stolen from
the islands, on one of which the parties had left
their wheebarrows and pick-uxes and shovels -
Capt. Green states that he did not visit the prin.
cipal deposite, owing to the inexperieuce of the
pilot, who was unwilling to take upon himself
the responsibility Of navigating the steamer among
the reefs Immense' quantities of birds were
seen. and it was found to be impossible TO walk
without crushing their eggs or their young The
house of Tying & Co, are forming u company to
work the guano reefs, in pursuance of the grants
given them by Gen Concha. ! am afraid they
will find some difficulty in getting their graute
approved by the home government, as have
been informed that no foreigner can hold such
grants on Spanish soil Samples of the different
kinds have been sent 10 Baltimore for analysis
