LARGE SHIPMENT OF CATTLE FROM ENGLAND TO
THE UNITED STATEs.-An extensive and valuable
consignment of breeding stock was shipped on
Wednesday for Philadelphia in the ship George.
Captain MACLooN. The stock comprised 80 head
of short horned cattle, 3 valuable horses, 25
sheep and IS pigs. All the animals are of the
best breeds, and have been selected without regard
to expense, in England, Ireland and Scotland.--
The task Of selection devolved on DR.. Johns, Cap.
tain Brown and Mr.. Jacoby, who were sent over
here by the Illinois Cattle Importing Association
The cattle are to be distributed exclusively in the
State of Illinois, with n view to the improvement
of the breeds in that State by crosses with tho bssl
blood to be obtained in this country. In proof OF
the value of high bred English cattle in the United
States, it may be mentioned that $50 guineas were
paid for one two-yearold beifer, and that the cost
of the IS animals, including their freight and pro-
vision to the port of destination, will not be far
short of G8,OO0. The horses are from celebrated
studs, and most of the cattle have taken prizes at
various agricultural shows. The shipment is in
fact, the most valuable ever sent from this port
Excellent arrangements have been made in the
vessel for the safe keeping of the stock during the
destination in good condition .-Lirerpool Times
Is IT TRUE?-The Rev. Mr.. Hill, of St. Louis,
said, on Friday last, in the Presbyterian General
Assembly Mt Cleveland
"St. Louis is substantially a free city, but our
emancipation movement is political-or q matter
of dollars and cents. There is no Christian phi.
lantbropy in it and n great deal of Northern
anti-slnvery feeling grows not in the soil of tho
Bible. but in that Of the newspaper. They are
now n power in the land"
Is it true that the newspapers lead, and the
Church is content to follow, in all the great moral
questions of tie day?
WHITE LABOR MOVEMENT IN WAsHISoroN.-A
Washington paper says: "The Democrats OF
Washington are protesting against the practice
that has prevailed in that city of employing ne.
gro slaves as messengers in tho several executive
departments of the national government, as these
acceptable employment to many competent and
worthy white men. The idea of giving negroes
the preference over white men in public employ
ment, is considered an outrage by the Democracy
of the Federal City."-State Journal.

The South newspaper. in an article highly eul
t CYSTIC of Mr.. Buchanan, uses this significant la
guage 1--WE have no fear that he will betray II
f spirit or the policy Of the Ostend report. His Il
ministration viH gire as Cuba" Such, undoub
/ eddy, is the general expectation of the slayehol
ers, who are the masters of Mr.. Buchanan not lei
f than Of the black vassals on their plantations.

: gives the information as follows;
"The Journals memory would be refreshed b
