A friend in Ohio county writes us an ac
count Of the partial exploration ofa remark
kable cave in that county. Reports made
by some boys, who have vcntured into the
cave, known as Spring Cave. near Point
Pleasant, on-Grecn- river, prompted the
writer. and several other gentlemen, to
make an exploration of it.. An entrance
to the cave was effected through a narrow
passage, about thirty feet long. which
opened into an cggshapcd room. some
thirty feet long, and fifteen high Thcex
ploring party visited, various passages,
five other rooms, in one Of which was a
small set of, as if made by man, and on
it were three books and several letters,
none ofwhich the gentlemen could make
out. They also found in this room silvery
looking metal, that had been run nito

~ most singular proposition is now be-
foro the Legislature of Mississippi. in the
shape Of a bill to incorporate the African
labor Importation Company" This com
pany. in the words of the bill, "shall have
the right of importing, into the State of
Mississippi and for the purpose Of industry,
native African negroes; Provided said ne
groes shall be held bound and obligated by
negotiable labor obligations for the full
term of twenty-nine years, running from
the date of within eighteen months previous
to the date of the importation of said negro
laborers. The ingenuity of this scheme
will be appreciated when we reflect that
the laws of the United States prohibit the
importation of slaves, and the laws of
Mississippi prohibit the importation of free
negroes. Its contended that the negroes
mentioned above would neither he slaves
nor frccmcn, because they would come
voluntarily, bound to involuntary labor.-
The gentlemen most prominently interest
ell in this scheme, a Mr.. Hughes. writes
to the paper that it is entirely feasible, he
having letters from highly intelligent and
practical gentlemen now in the slave trade
to that effect He adds: The service of
gentlemen eminently qualified have already
been procured to go to Africa and inspect
the enlistment and Recommendation of the
negroes, so that there shall be complete
conformity to the United States laws.''-
But surposing the plan is adopted, and a
negro under it lives out the twenty
years, what then becomes of him? He is
to be elevated into slavery" frankly says
this brilliant law-giver. What the pros
poets of this scheme are we do not know,
and VIC therefore. dismiss it for the present,
with the citation of one of the arguments
presented, which reaches beyond Individual
profit: @ -esa
Politically it affords an enormous ad.
vantage. For as fcleral representation is
now arranged, only three -fiftlis of the nc
groes are counted, because slaves. In the
coming census enumeration, negroes bound
in service for term of years. will count
not as three-fifths. bat as one each. (Con-

respecting the fllibustcr Walker and Pres

When Walker was arrested and held to
bail in the sum of $1,000, to appear at the
Federal Court in New Orleans, Col. Slat-
ter, a rich old bachelor in the city, went
his bail. Slater is the owner of the City,
Hotel. and the New Orleans Arcade, two
houses which he rents for about $40, ,000--
He has $40, 900 in the Nicaragua enter
prise, and has been the friend of Walker
all the time. Ex-senator Soule, also, has
large Investments in Central America, and
both these men went before Buchanan, with
Walker, and heard him promise Walker
not to Interrupt him iahis expedition. Wal

Mr.. ROYAL S. Hicks editor Of the Rock

ings of the Office holders convention OF
the 9Th of January, no way that it can
be fixed, and don't seem at all afraid to say
so. On this point let him speak for him
self.
at shall never be said of us and our
people that we fall down and worship Baal
at the command of designing demagogues,
and unprincipled leaders. When leaders
go astray, the rank and file of the party
will see to it that new commanders are
chosen, who will lead the greatest host OF
democracy to victory. That such an EN-
ergency has come upon us there is none to
dispute The man in whom the Democ-
raey have hitherto trusted their cherished
pl inciples. have gone over to the enemy,
and proved recreant to the great trusts i'm
posed upon them by the people. Need
we advert to facts to prove this solemn de, :
laration? Where stand the men whom
the Democracy have been proud to honor
in days past. upon principles as pure and
eternal as the Heavens? Let the midnight
silence. that sets enshrouded upon the re-
