MULATToEs NORTH AND SoUrH.-In the discussion between Parson Brownlow and Parson Pryne, at Philadelphia, the former asserted that there were more "mu- latoes at the North than at the South. , and hence that amalgamation was much more prevalent there than South of Mason and Dixon's Line. On this subject, the New York Daily News says:
 The organ of the aboitionis,s in this city says this is "naked assertion un- supported by any figures, and will not be credited by any person well informed on the subject" Now, we propose to give the figures, and show that the Tribune is not well informed. or else knowingly per- verts facts. From the United States cen. sus we derive the following figures. Take "Slave" and Free States alternately: In Alabama there are mulattoes to 100 blacks; in Connecticut 30 to 100 blacks in Arkansas. 16; in Illinois, S5; in Geor- gia, 5; in Indiana, S9; in Kentucky. 17 in Maine, 5l in Maryland, l5; in Massa chusetts, 34 in Louisiana. l4; in Michl- gan, 76; in Mississippi, 7; in New Hamp. shire, 54; in North Carolina, 12 ; in Ohio, S9; in South Carolina. 4 in Pennsylvania 40; in New York, l9; in Virginia, 17, etc. The "slave" and "free" States throughout the Union show the proportion named above of mula,toes to every JOG blacks and in all the " slave" States ex- cep,ing the District of Columbia, the pro- portion of mulat,oes to blacks is 50 per cent. less than in Massachusetts. This shows exclusively that amalgama:ion is much more common in the North than at the South, and Ii is very reasonable that j. should be so, for the tendency of Abo-
 itioni,,s to egualize the races socially as we'll as politically, while that of " slavery is to separate them and place impossible barriers between them, or as nearly im- passable as is possible. It would be doing common justice 10 their readers for the Tribune to let them see the above facts. But who expects it will.

SECRETARY CoBB's REPORT.

The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun writes under date of Nov. l7th, as follows:
 "It is said that the reports of the heads of department and bureau are in progress, if not completed. The report of the Sec retary of the Treasury on the state of the finances is made directly 10 Congress, whilst those of the other Secretaries are made to the President. MT. Cobbs re- port is looked for by the public with much interest. as it is to indicate the mode in which the public expenditures are to be met, at least for year or two to come.
 It is believed that the treasury will pro. pose a general revision of the tariff, with view 10 increase the rate of duties on articles now dutiable. A report is current that he will propose duties on tea and cof. lee at rate that will yield five millions. This is plan that will necessarily pre- sent itself to Congress as an alternative to loan. But it is hardly to be supposed that another resort 10 u loan can be avoid- ed, nor isthere any reason why Congress should hesitate to borrow money, while there is wel-founded belief in the future ability of the government to pay it. It would be far better to borrow money than to oppress the public by onerous taxes up- on the necessaries of life; or, by an in- crease of the tariff, to cause a large sur plus to be scrambled for in Congress. The treasury estimates have, 1t is said. been made ap, and will soon appear in print. The estimates have, of course, been made with an eye to the necessity of keeping within reasonable limits the in- creasing expenditures of the general gov ernment. These expenditures have ne- cessarily followed our expansion of terri tory, and will perhaps be, ere long, in- creased to such an amount that they can no longer be met by duties or imports. To direct taxes and excises we must come at last, or indulge less in a thirst for con. tinen,al dominion.
 The same correspondent says:
 The state of our relations with Mexico IS such that our Executive government must necessarily very soon take positive attitude in regard to them. 1 have no doubt the policy of the Executive on the subject will be fully developed in the Pre- sldent's message to Congress at the open Ing of the ensuing session. The policy of inactivity is, l am persuaded, to be abandoned. It may be question how far the present cabinet may be unit in regard to measures now under considera. ton, in relation to Mexico, but it is to be supposed, from the past transactions of the Administration, that they will present q firm and united front in regard 10 foreign as we'll as domestic questions.

TfHE FRENCH SLAVE TRADE.- The reliable Paris correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce discredits the statements of the Paris purveyors of the London press that the French goyernmen, have definitely resolved to put an end to the experiment of free emigration to Af- rica. He says the contracts are for a long period; they received the sanction and warrant of the government the Antilles remain eager for perseverance in the scheme. The Paris Pays (ministerial) ] says that, as to the immigration, France maintains its right to the utmost extent. The Pays is also pleased withthc human ny of the scheme, declaring that the black kings would put considerable number of theIr subjects to death if, since the aboli. non of the slave trade, they did not find means of employing them in immigra. ton! In the meantime. the Portuguese papers. embittered by the violence of the French in the case of the Charles et Geor. ges, and by the abandonment of their cause by the British government, call for the withdrawal of their own squadron from further attempts to put down the slave trade. a
