HAMMOND REPUDIATED.

The following article from paper called the
Eufaula SPIRIT Of the South expresses the gen
eral sentiment of the fre-eateTs
"Well had it been for the South, if their pro
gress had kept pace with the advance of her
enemies, and if to-day the great captain who
leads the hosts of abolition were confronted by
one who had served her cause with the same
lifelong and consistent devotion that has mark
ed his hostility to her rights and institutions.
when In the Senate ofthe United States, but
little more than six months since, Mr.. Seward
declared, in the same spirit that characterized
his Rochester speech, that the battle between
the North and South had been fought and
won, the South had leader who promptly met
the issue:
al was surprised the other day. said Mr..
Hammond, of South Carolina, when he (Sew-
ard( so openly said :" the battle had been fought
and won" Although | knew, and had long
known it to be true, was surprised to hear him
say so. thought that he had been entrapped
into hasty expression by the sharp rebukes of
the Senatot from New Hampshire and was
glad 70 learn yesterday they had been well con-
siderered-that they meant all that l thought
they meant; that they meant that the South is
conquered province, and that the North in
tends to rule it.
And then the Senator from South Carolina
who fully comprehended the force of the TRUTH
that the South is conquered province, and
that the North intends to rule it, went on in an
argument, clear convincing, and overwhelming,
to show the capacity of this conquered province
to Ia Ike care of herself pointing throughout to a
Southern Confederacy as a certain escape from
the perils that beset us.
A few months have rolled by and the lead
er of Free Soil, advancing step further in
has aggressive policy, proclaims the startling
views of the Rochester speech, and almost stimuli
taneous, the Senator from South Carolina ad-
dresses the constituents who trusted him and
looked to him for counsel. Does he seize once
more the bold defiance Of his first Senatorial eff
fort? Does he warn the conquered province of
the threatening storm, and bid the people pre-
pare for the evil day? Alas, the conquered
province, as if by the enchanter's wand, has be-
come an invincible empire. Instead of an anti
dote to the baleful programme ofabolition, every
thing is swallowed up in shouts of triumph; and
one who, within this very year, declared that he
knew the battle had been lost forgetting all,
congratulates us on the victories won, by con
quered province. And the Free Soil press, that
had no patience with the first effort, now Law
ishes its praises upon the man who has sense
enough to abandon an untenable position, and
counsel submission to wrongs that can no longer
be successfully resisted Well might one who
stands where Calhoun once stood, exclaim,
. What have | done, that my enemies should
praise me? Well may the astonished South
exclaim, What sudden shifting of the scenes
Is this The same insoent enemy still thunders

THE CUBAN MONARCHY.

The New York San, one of the. oldest, ablest,
and stanchest advocates of Cuban annexation,
discredits the Information impaired to the States
respecting the project of converting Cuba into
a monarchy under a scion of the royal line of
Spain.
We are not surprised at the fretful incredulity
of the Abolition press, for that always opposes
every form of Investigation into the intrigues of
Europe to defeat American progress but we
cannot understand how the New York Sun, with
its corps of Intelligent Cuban correspondents.
can see anything incredible or even improbable
IN the statement.
Would 1t not be more to the purpose to keep
a vlgIlant eye on the movements of the Anglo
French alliance with Spain, than to take every
thing they please to say for gospel? We NAV
persist IN shutting our eyes little too long.
No one believes that the conferences at
Madrid on the definite solution of the Mexican
question can leave Cuba outside of that settle
ment The concentration of the allied fleets in
the Gulf of Mexico cannot be of light signifi-
canoe at tins crisis, yet these Solomon Doubters
ma little or nothing to say on this head
1t rs no longer denied that these allies are
pledged TO peculiar slave trade and forced
labor system, intended to be foreign to. and in
competition of our more extensive system of
negro seryitude. Nor is it denied that this
system looks to a final amalgamation of races !;
nor that Cuba has been garrisoned under il by
preponderating army of free negroes, who are
by treaty the wards of England, and NAV any
day become her soldiers. 1t is not denied that
arms are kept on hand for this class. 10 nut down
the whites if they attempt revolution.
1t is not denied that the French and British
Cabinets are pledged to assist Spain whenever
she decides TO act upon her sworn policy to AZ
ricanize Cuba, rather than let it pass to the
Yankees on any terms.
1t has been denied, but is no longer, that
Spain and her European allies have plotted
for monarchy in Mexico, and it is not by
any means certain that this project is aban-
doned.
1t is certain that Napoleon's official journals
are publicly announcing that an unimpaired
European Supremacy in Cuba, st. Domingo,
and Porto Rico, makes an essential part of the
European equilibrium :n the Western Hemis-
phere.p They say that the Dominican Repub-
he must be submerged by the negro empire

ent republic with American tendencies might
endanger the ascendency of European interests,

THE Way rae MONEY GOES.

A writer in the New York Times gives the
following account of one Of those enormous
leaks in the public Treasury which has recently
brought it to the brink of bankruptcy. The,
Coast Survey has grown so silently from small
beginnings, that not one citizen in thousand
has ever looked upon it in the light of great
abuse; and indeed its connection with the
cause of science, as well as its practical utility,
are well calculated to shield it from the scrutiny
of the public; but there is now too much reasons
to suspect that the noble objects which the pro-,
jectors of the Coast Survey had in view have
become secondary to the mercenary aim of liv.
ing upon the public treasury:
"If the appropriations by Congress covered.
the entire cost Of the Coast Survey, it would be.
enough TO demand review of its expenses with
view to abridge them and if the amazing in
crease of cost in the latter years be considered,
investigation would seem indispensable. They
comprise, however, only the sums appropriated:
directly to the Coast Survey. Its indirect levies.
upon the public property and funds are believed
to be much greater.
ats agency in swelling the cost of the public
printing must be serious, from the nature and
| copieusness of its documents but, in ignorance
of the items of the public printing, it is impos,
sibe to define its extent. Besides the current
printing, there seems, now and then, to be some
special appropriation for printing results. One.
of 81 ., 900 for that purpose is observed in IS45,
another Of S2O,00Oin 1854, and still another of
SIS, 900 in 1855. Z
"They do not include the pay and subsistence
of the numerous army and navy officers and en-:
gineers detailed for the service of the Coast Sur
vey. The Secretaries ofthose Departments can,
upon the call of Congress, readily furnish the
amounts. That they are considerable, is evident
enough from the numbers of officers and men,
detailed. The $780, 900 of 1856, for example, !.
was not used for the relief of other of those de-
partments; yet, in that very year, besides cap !
tains, first heutenants, and second heutenants, ]
from the army, the navy contributed as follows ]

these and other good reasons went strongly
to confirm the statement of q friend, whom we
know to enjoy unusual facilities for forming his
opinions, that the Anglo French alliance IS re-
curing Spain to place Cuba beyond the reach
Of the Ya16ees," by giving her an independent
status Whether it is to be in the form of a con-
federation with Porto Rico and St. Domingo,
or under strictly Spanish monarchy, is dispu-
ted but we firmly believe the question of in
dependence is as good as settled. That the
French, English, and Spanish Ministers here
deny the fact, proves nothing at all for they
are not sent here to tell the truth. We also be-
lieve that, six or eight months hence, the ma
ority of candid and intelligent observers will
see and eoncede that Cuba is lost to the, u Mon,
if not to the white race There is but one
chance to the contrary, which is, that Cuba
may be involved with Mexico, and rescued, with
her, from the fangs of the triple alliance

FREE TRADE IN NIGGERs.


This is the latest demand of the unterrifed
Virginia Democracy. The maxims of equality
taught by Jefferson have struck deep into the
heart of the Old Dominion. The spirit of mo-
nopoly finds no restingp place on her hallowed
soil. Even the F. F. VS. are to be robbed of
their exclusive privileges, and the opportunity of
slayeholding is TO be brought down to the dem
ocratic standard of 500 per head for likely
negro fellows" The Bible, which sanctions the
institution of Slavery, intends its blessing alike
for all citizens; and the Declaration of indie
pendence, which declares all men equal, guar
antics the right of all to hold slaves.
But what is the use of barren right? With
the price Of negroes at 81 500, what advantage
viii the poor man derive from these guaran-
lies 4? Neither the Bible nor the Declaration
Of Independence can be of any benefit to poor
lnen while such prices rule, and nothing but
free trade in niggers can secure every man in
the enjoyment of his rights. The slave trade
must be revived, and all laws which in any way
interfere with it must be repealed. When that
great reform is accomplished, every man may
sit under his own vine and fg-tree, with plenty

The payroll of these officers amounts TO
S78,60O per annum. If to this be added the
wages and rations of crews for six steamers and
i've briggs and schooners-say 44O men, at the
rate of ordinary seamen, and rations at twenty
cents per day-the cost of officers and men
alone would be $l84,64O. The number ofmen'
estimated will probably fall short of the actual
number employed and paid, and the same is
probably true of the estimated rate of wages.
The cost of vessels of all sorts, of repairs
and alterations of the same, wear and tear, and
fuel and oil for the steamers will probably ex.
coed the cost of officers and seamen
1.-The office of Superintendent of Weights
and Measures was held by Hassler, as it is by
Bache, in connection with the other appoint
nlent, but the labor of average and adjustment
had been completed by the former, and left
little or nothing to be done by his successor, but
to distribute the patronage.
The proposition to change the Lighthouse
system was vigorously opposed in Congress :;
but the Coast Survey influence was not TO be
resisted and, under the form of committing it
TO board of nine members, it was committed
substantially to tho Coast Survey, and with tho
usual result, as the figures prove. The act was
passed August 81, 1882 and the expenditure
OF that year was probably under the old system
The expenditures during the FIVE years which
precede the change are as follows

it acas corrected before the New Translation
appeared. The lately rejected Revision, of the
Bible Society, quietly said in the margin-"Or,
strain out" And that was enough. So it is
said In the editions from this office" Or, STRAIN
oat' This is the advantage of a judicious re-
vision. Instead of disturbing the harmony and
defacing the beauty of the Standard, it makes
it perfect by careful emendation. WIcLIF gave
the passage thus Clensenge gnat TN
DALE thus: "Strayne out graf 9-CRANMER,
" Strayne out gnat the GENEvAN, Strayne

as already stated by mistake of the printer the
AUTHORIZED said, Straine at gnat. In
controversial pamphlet, now before the writer,
printed In London in 1909, lat the very time
when the Kings TransatOrs were at their
work. the common understanding of the pas
sage Is evident from the following allusion to
an opponent; Whereby appeareth his PARTIAL
ties In swallowing of Camels, and StrdiRing out
Gndts. No one of these old versions however,
1t may be observed, said" swallow dozen a
camel" This is one Of the modern improve
ments. H..
Another instance of care, in the editions
here commended. to public attention, is this /:
In Revelation, XIII, 8, the revised edition Of
the Bible Society reads: And all that dwell
upon the earth shall worship Him, whose names
are not written in the book of life of the Lamb
slain, from the foundation of the world The
second comma in this sentence, was added by
the committee, but has been objected to by
others, perhaps generally. To the subscriber,
it seems to have the effect of making the mid
die clause parenthetical, and so destroying
tense and sense thus: shall auorship him Whose
names are not written in the book Of life of the
Lamb slain) from the foundation Of the acO,ld."
He has therefore restored this passage to its
former condition. In like manner, whatever
shall be demonstrated at any time, as indubi-
tably necessary to perfect these editions, by
simple correction will receive due attention
the design being to present the purest and best
standard of the received version in the world.
8. AS to the "reward to be brought by
"large circulation" the subscriber takes the
liberty of saying that the profits of his publica-
tons, SO far as the SACRED TEXT are concerned,
are already pledged to the advancement Of Bible
Christianity Securing a living, he wishes,
beyond this, to do good to others. 1t is on this
account that he feels justified in requesting
editors to render the favor of reprint of this
CARD, if it accord with their judgment so to do.
