The Commissioners with their corps of
assistapts, as We learn from the Abingdon
Virginiap, have succeeded 10 tracing the pres
enr, or Five Chop line as it is called, from
Bristol to the White Top. Mr.. Keith, the
Astronomer, traced the latitude, and found
the line to be some distance north OF SO dogs,

a considerable slice from Tennessee. II, as
was contended when the line was run 10 1892

Bristolis 10 the Old DoniIion, lacga parts Of

pr.nc. and African Laborsrs.

The Moniteur publishes the following le'-
fer which the Emperor has addressed 70 DIS
cousip. Prince Napoleon, Minister OF Algeria
and of the Colonies:
"Sr. CLOUD. Oct 30.-My Dear Cousin: l
have the hve,iest desire that, at the moment
when tbs difference with Portugal relative to
the Charles ct Georges is termIn ated, the
question of the engagement OF Tree iaoo1o's
90 the African coast should be desoiteiy e1'
amined and fi1ally settled on the truest prin'
ciplcs of humanity and justice =,
81 energetically claimed from Portugal inc
restitution of the Charles o. Georges, because
| will always maintain intact the 10 depen-
denee of the national flag; and, in this case,
il was only with the profound conviction
Of nv right that risked, With the King OF
Portugal, a rupture OF those friendly rela-
tions which am glad to maintain with him.
"But as to the principle OF the engagement
OF the negroes, my ideas are far from being
settled. II, 10 truth, lsborers recruited on
the African coast are not allowed the exeroise
! of their free will, and if this enrolment on
" the slave trade in disguise, | will have It
| on no terms. for i. is not | who will anywhere
protect enterprises contrary to progress, 70
humanity, and to civilization.
! Il beg yCu then to seek out the truth WITH
the zeal and Intelligence which you bring to
! bear on all affairs which you take 10 hsnd,
and az the best method of putting an end to
wnat is a contpual cause OF dispute would

| ~ horeon, Dy dear cousio, pray God to
have you i g his holy keeping. NAPOLEON.
! The L3ndOa Times Commenting on this let
| ter says:
Nothing like al apology to Portugal for the
! 10 disuity she has suffered appears o the In
perlal letter. The English people are oonse-
queutly, 1t seems to Us, absolved from the
! du;y OF max ing any warm Acknowledgements
| for the Emper0r's change Of mind. They
! have been scandGiized at the sight OF 40 10
! iary iGtl cted on u weak State which was Ia
! uorlT q 70 carry out . righteous and humane
policy. If the French Emperor now thinks
that the iuconveniences of disguised slave
trading ovel-Laance the advantages, We arc
! glad that be has come to 80 sensible con-
/ clusiop. and If he wishes for Coolies from
British India he may have them, provided that
| no invioabie representative Of France comes
with the vessel to carry the men on board
with their hands voluntarily tied behind
! their backs" But We shall not com liment
the Emperor Gu his letter. Retreat from g
false position is no doubt wise, but it may
| be TOO long deferred to command admiration
| or sympathy. The E'g!sh public, deeply
moved by the lawlessress of the recent pro-
ceedinss, will look upon the present act only
with q cold satisfaction.
