Our London correspondents have on several
occasions referred to the interest felt In that
city by the creditors, of the Spanish. American
republics In The question Of the advance Of
American influence ON this continent. 1t lie be-
ginning to be seen that the British holders Of
Mexican aud other Spanish-American bonds
have large direct and pslpable interest at
stake in this matter
Although the main question is essentially a
material one, its solution depends entirely upon
political elements. Immense debts are due to
British creditors, not only by the Spanish re-
publcs Of America, but by Spain herself. the
satisfactory liquidation Of which can only be
obtained by q co operation Of American in

claims have been 30 perIinaciously set aside

Colonel Blythe, has died, and that the Office has
now to be filed. We protest, in the name Of the
great commercial interests Of this country,
ae ainst the giving Of the Havana Consulate to
any other person from Mississippi; and we
would urge upon Mr.. Buchanan that he at once
oil the Office by appointing some one who has
had experience In commerce, and who knows

TO exercise his functions on board of ship.
One word about Mr.. Savage We are informed
that he II not citizen Of the United States, and
has been but once and then only for few weeks,
in this country. The Consular Act Of 1856
enacts in its 2lst section that the compensation
provided In that actor certain Offices, including
he Consulate at Havana, shall not be paid TO
sny person who shall not be a citizen of the
United States. We would call the attention Of
he State Department to these facts, for we do
not suppose Mr.. Savage is serving gratuitously.
That he has made mistake In the affair
of the brig Nancy Is evident If she was in.
ringing the laws of Cuba the consular instruc
ions forbid him 10 interfere IL he had sufIi-
Cert evidence 10 lead him TO think that she was
infringing the laws Of the United States, he
could have prevented her going TO sea by refu-
sing to give to the parties implicated her Ame-
rican papers, which necessarily were In his pos
session; or be might have gone further, and

our courts In giving her up TO Spanish court

may do much to break up the slave trade, but

sidered article in their issue Of Saturday wholly uncaed

BSg"It is positively asserted, and would appear to be
quite probable, that Brigham Young bound for Sono
ra having made up his mind to travel and taken up
his line of march in that direction. Brigham thinks he
is another Moses likewise Aaron and several other pro-
phets. But we suppose Brgham's career has arrived
at its turning point and he will begin to find that there
is something in the old saying, that there is use in
being fellow unless you're devil of fellow. Brig
ham thought he would keep talking big and perhaps he
would succeed in soaring Uncle SAM Upon the whole
we think Brigham found out his mistake, and his pa
trosm commenced oozng out of the ends of his fingers
like as did the pluck of Bob Acres.
But if Brigham has really taken the route to Sonora
he has made bad calculation. Uncle Sam will be there
shortly, and if nothing happens, will be bigger and
ugler customer to fool with than ever before But
it may do Brgham'S time or the old fellow may be up
to new dodge. He may yet turn lecturer, and expose
the horrors Of Mormonism and like Solomon in his old
days, pronounce it all vanity.
That bubber having bursted-the war furry being
nearly exhausted and likely to out straght-Con-
gress being about to adjourn, the newspaper world will
be pushed for material in the dull summer months The
pressgang will be like the Israetes in Egypt compelled
to make bricks without straw-o be sure we will have
an election canvass in this State, but really that
discussion has been gone over so often that
little novelty can be presented at this late day.
