THE IIuNKERs DELIGHrED--The Democratic pa
pers are rejoicing with great glee. that Mr.. Gid
dings has been dropped in the Congressional nom
nation, and some of the pro-slavery republican
fail to conceal their pleasure at the event. The,
want to mako republicanism national and are la
boring to extend it among tho Shareholders in til,
slave States. Mr,Gidding's undisguised and hear,
adherence of slavery is an obstacle in the way o
their utilization with Shareholders. which they arr
serve claim that it is no indication of a letting dowr
of the anti-slavery standard. We shall see. The
Wheeling Intelligencer says:
by the dispatch from Cleveland, it will be seer
that Joshua Il. Giddings, famous IN the annals Of
Abolitionism, has been suppressed by the nominal
ton of John IIutchins. Old Joshua's mind had
become too much cl0gged with The niger even for

CHINA OPEN TO FOREIGN TRADE.-An impor-
tant event in the worlds history has recently
transpired in the opening of the Chinese empire to
unrestricted commerce with Europe. This has
been effected by a treaty of the Chinese with the
French and English as the conclusion of hos.ili.
ties. 1t is an entire revolution in the exclusive
policy of that empire, which for centuries has
shut itself up from all intercourse with other ma,
tions, and will let in upon nearly one fourth Of
the globe new social lights and shadows and grad
ually it must change the character and habits Of
the people. Hitherto the only concessions that
could be obtained of tho great empire, was the
privilege to a few favored nations of trading with
some half dozen obscure ports. Now, the com.
merce of the empire is opened to the world. 1t
will carry with it in both directions the vices as
we'll as the virtues and improvements Of both
hemispheres. Though the inferior people with
