New YoRK, Sept 6.
The steamship Arago, from Southamp.

The weather in England has been very

completed. Breadstuffs dull and declin-

beef quiet, quotations nominal, bacon stea.

Rumors had gone forth that the directors
of the Atlantic Cable Company hal de.
termined to renew the trial in October
They are believed to be wholly unfounded
Messrs. G. NJ. Hampton, Ct. B. Carr anC
Cyrus w. Field had an interview will
Sir Chas. Wood, first Lord of the Admi
rality, on the 2lst ult., to know whether, i
the Directors should accept the offer mad
them for the whole of the cable, the British
Government would assist them with YES
sells, DC, next summer
Sir Chas. Wood answered promptly il
the affirmative.
The cable is wanted to be laid down a
once ia the Rel Sea, or the Persian Gulf
SO as to get the line open to India, at tn
earliest possible moment. 900 pound
sterling per share was offered in London
on the 24th, without finding sellers. Con

Asses smcnt Of st. Lou s..in tux Of Labor
and Ca pital.

The total value ofreal and personal prop
erty of the city, as shown by the recent as
sessment under the direction of Mr.. Urban,
chief OF the assessors bureau, is S73,664,-
DAB "a. The total valuation of real and
personal property for 1856 was S59, 609,-
2S5 80, showing and increase Of over TWEEN
ty five per cent. in favor of the present year
The great influx Of labor and capital into
our city has constituted large part of this
increase; and has contributed also in no
slight measure to effect the additional val
uation which is thus seen in so short q
space of time to have attached itself to the
real estate of st. Louis.-S Louis Demo
Graf.
If Missouri would give as heavy a ma
jority for Emancipation as St. Louis has
done, remarks the indianapolis journal,
the same increase in the value of property
would be observed all over the State. Let
slavery be abolished in Missouri, and in
one year the increase in the price of real
estate would pay for every negro that wo' d
be set free, and that increase would 90 on
at a greater or less rate in succeeding years.
Five years of emancipation would double
the wealth of every landholder in the State,
and that is more than any number of slaves
would do in q life time.

sorgho sucre Mo,asse..

A correspondent of the indianapolis
Journal, who is attending the National
Fair at Louisville, in one of his letters in
regard to Sorgho Sucre Molasses says:
Some molasses made from Sorgho Sucre,
or Chinese Sugar Cane, shown here, has
been examined by'a number of persons, the
Majority of whom pronounce it superior in
taste and quality to Orleans molasses. II
the culture of this cane proves to be sue
cess, the Louisiana sugar crops and the
high tariff on sugar may go to-Boston,
or somewhere else. The people of the T.
nited States, especially those of the North
will be independent of Southern sugar
plan tiers.

rot like to break his word. The case was
dismissed!
That was all the trial man indicted for
murder, treason and arson had!
The Fort Smelling Reservation.

The people of the United States-the
men who do the work and paw the
taxes-have just been gouged out OF
something more than six hundred thous.
and dollars by few leading Pro Slave
ry politicians and wire workers, in the
sale of the military reser walton al
Fort Smelling. 1t is not for a moment
to be supposed that FRANKLIN STEELE
one of the army suffers stationed al
that fort. and HENRY NJ. RICE, the Min
nesota Delegate in Congress, are alone the
gamers by this operation. 1t is rumored,
and we believe upon good authority, that
other and more prominent politicians OF
the party are deep in the business, and that
the profits of the mock sale will line many
a pocket, the owner of which is powerful in
the councils of the nation. We forbear ma
ming any parties who are suspected OF
completely in this transactions; but we call
upon Republican members Of Congress to
make themselves acquainted with the facts,
as far as they have transpired, for the pur-
pose OF making the sale the subject Of leg
islative inquiry, as soon as it can be reached,
In the business of the next session. The
schemers, who are . friching themselves at
the expense of tb people, havsnot covered
their tracks sc .afully that they may not
be discovered A swindle of that magni-
tude could not be perpetrated without di.
vision of the spoils, in which a score, at
least, would be included. This fact alone
will furnish a clue to the investigation
which must be entered into-a clue that
we trust will steadily and perseveringly be
followed up until the fraud and actors
therein are fully exposed If, as we sus-
pect, the most influential ofthe Amalgama.
tionists are parties to the fraud, the affair
will enter largely into the contest for the
next Speaker of the House. The plotters
will naturally select one of their own mum
Der, or one who can be made to obey their
dictation, that, in the appointment of the
committee of investigation they may con-
stitute it as they please, and manage it sub
sequently for their own excul pation. Let
us watch the developments that time will
make, and the robbers will be detected at
last In the meantime, the people who are
honestly at work to earn their bread, will
be anxious to know if the sale of this Res
ervation Is the specimen brick of Mr..
Buchanan's financial policy. He came in
to power pledged by his own lips to the
reform of the gross monetary abuses of
which, under the Democratic Pierce, tax
payers had right to complain; but almost
the first act in his administration is this
wholesale robbery, which is, SO far as the
public are informed, defended and justified
by the powers that be. Six hundred thous-
and dollars gone in single transaction
Is this the reform to which the President is
pledged? Are the operators in Reservation
lands the friends upon whom he relies to
make his reforms thorough and effective?

so-called slavery; when if they under
stood properly the whole phenomena of
this so-called slavery question, the vile de-
fusion under which they labor would ex-
piode at once, and they would wonder at
the abolition humbug.
Democracy and slavery are antipodes-
terms expressing opposite ideas; the Dem
ocracy now as ever is the party of freemen;
its mission is the destruction of slavery the
world over. But the Democratic party
do not consider negro subordination as
slavery at all. They recognize the ne.
cessity for the expansion OF Society, south as
well as north, and they will not resist the
formation of "slave" states when the PEG.
pie desire them.
Not SO, however, with the negro wor-
shippers. They would change the natural
relation of the races and destroy the cor
ner stone of our American Democracy.

Voting in Kansas


We have no reason to question the wis
dom of the action decided upon by the
Free State men of Kansas in resolving to
vote at the October election, remarks the
Chicago Tribune, but we fear that they
are entrapped at last in the tolls which
Walker has been industriously weaving for
them. They have, apparently upon the
strength of his faithless promises-promi-
ses that he will not hesitate to break when
the interests of slavery may be served
thereby--abandoned the tenable and digui-
fed position they have occupied up to this
time-with what prospect of advancing the
object to which they are devoted and fol
which they have sacrificed so much, we
cannot see. In the face of an apportion-
meat that DISTINGUISHES more than half OF
the counties of the Territory; with the
knowledge that the bogus Sheriffs and
Judges are, to man, of the Border Ruffian
species, and that they have justified all the
atrocities of which their Democratic breth.
rem have been guilty. and are ready to JUS
tify more; with no confidence in Walker as
a man of veracity, or as one who can inhu-
ence, outside of the sphere of his official
action, any political events in the Territory;
with the knowledge also that he has rece-
dcd, formally. from the position that he
assumed when he went among them, and
in spite of his declarations that his words
have been misinterpreted and his pledges
misunderstood,-in the face of all this,
the policy Of the party is in moment re-
versed, and we, who have defended with
what zeal and earnestness we could COM

Some doubts. it appears, have recently
arisen in the minds OF some. as to whether
the election held last year for County
Treasurer and Commissioner was legal
A law enacted by the Legislature of 1855,
prolonged the term of certain officers until
the first of November following, which
was supposed to be unconstitutional. as
that instrument specified the length oftims
these officers should serve. and accordingly
Its provisions were not regarded generally
by either party, we believe. Recently,
however, rumors are in circulation that the
Supreme Court will sustain the constitu.
tionality of the law. and, in consequence,
tho Democracy of this county, at their
County Convention, last Saturday, for
Treasurer and Commissioner re-nominated
the same persons elected last year as can
didates for election again for the same Off
ces this fall For one we are rather disin-
chned to nominating any Republican can
didates for these offices the present year,

can Convention to decide what is proper to
be done when il meets next Saturday.
