THE ENGLISH FOR UA-NICARAGUA
EOR uIIE ENGl.LsL

We understand the State Department has received
official information that the British Government will
Interfere with any emigration movement made, not
only on the part Of Americans towards Central Amc-
RIGA. but any attempt to coonize that region The
British squadron has been ordered from the West In
dies to the Central American coast and Sir VIM
Gore Ousley will start in few days for the same
scene OF action.
This is the result Of the previous interference Of
our government, and the seizure Of Gen. Walker by
Paulding When that outrage was committed. We
showed the inevitable result that would attend it, il
it was not rcpudated by this government.
Paul(iings action exceeded far in responsibility
the action of Porter at Foxjardo for which he wa.
so disgraced that he left the service and went into
another country. Pauldlng, however, notwithstand
ing the President said he committed grave error"
was sustained 1T was even proposed to give him
medal for degrading the flag of his country into tho
badge OF detective officer. We had no more right
to arrest General Walker then, than would the Eng
lIsh how: yet it is plain to every comprehension, tn
important powers of England may nsurp upon til,
basis OF the dangerous precedent given by us.
live allow any foreign interference or sefappoini
ed foreign protectorat or any portion of this North
American continent, much more that Isthmus which,
is to be the highway of the world do we not outragr
the Monroe doctrine, which has been accepted as
OF the most important articles of Democratic faith
This Monroe doctrine has been echoed and re.echoed
time and again in the Democratic resolutions, from
one end of the land to the other, as cmbodying the
best and most conservative doctrine by which the
dignity Of the nation can be preserved Now is the
time to act on it.
We ask the South if it will stand tamely by and
see these foreign encroachmens making headway on
the continent! Southern statesmen and southern
journalists must come out boldly, broadly directly Oh
this subject Senator Brown has done at Hazlehursl
and Messrs Clingman and Wright, of Tenn, and
Others did the House of Representatives, touching
the abrogation Of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty.
Experience shows us that the more we delay in this
matter the more danger do carelessy surround il
with. Let the South-let the North take hold OF
the subject, grapple with it and not let it go until
they have shaken the very life out of the shams pre-
texts aud dodgeries by which the English and French
are seeking to hold Central America Wash States.

az Success is too often the test of merit. Sup
pose after the apparently complete success of the
Atlantic telegraph, and after all the rejoicing
this important event in both England and America,
the telegraph cable should be broken, or should
from any cause to operate and prove failure,
what would then be said of it's projectors and of
those who have labored so indefatigaby to accom-
plish the work? Would not many who have shout
ed, and burnt gas, and got up Examinations, and
fired cannons over the successful laying of the wire
and the transmission of few dispatches all at once
discover that the whole thing was doubtful in its
nature, and declare that they foresaw its failure?
Those who croak would be as numerous as those
who now exult Thus it is.with the pale student
in science and art If he succeeds-if he confers
great benefit the world, he is hailed, or some one
who steps in and takes his place is hailed as the
leading spirit of his time; but if he fails, though
he may have revealed great and important princi-
Pies, and approached the very verge of success, he
is at ones forgotten.

Latest by the Atlantic Telegraph.

The following dispatch has been received from
Mr. Saward, Secretary of the Atlantic Telegraph
Company, for the American Press:
LONDON, Friday, Aug. o.
The Emperor of France returned to Paris on Sat
urday.
The King of Prussia too i'll to visit Queen
Victoria at Potsdam. Her Majesty will return to
England on the 3Oth of August
The news of the settlement of the Chinese ques.

Under the terms of the treaty Of peace the Chinese
empire is open to the trade of all foreign powers,
the Christian religion is allowed in all parts of the
country, foreign diplomatic agents admitted and
ample indemnity is to be given England and France.
1t is singular and gratifying fact that the first
news dispatch transmitted along the Atlantic tele-
graph was the announcement Of treaty of peace
between China and the belligerent powers, England
and France, by which that vast empire containing
third of the whole human race, is to be thrown
open to the trade of all nations, while the Christian
religion is be allowed free course in all parts of
the country.

Starving at the White sulphur Springs.
One Of the Correspondence Of the Petersburg Dem
ccrat gives the following account of the starpisg
Sulphur Springs, Virginia. North Carolina makes
enough for all her people, and to spare and if they
will remain at home and resort to their own water
ing places, can at least promise them enough to
eat:
"The accommodations here certainly are very
wretched, except to favored few. There is no sort
all-and it seems to be game OF every man for him
self. But, them no one has right to complain !;
they know what they will get before they come and
if not they do as shall do to. morning,
go away, where they'll get better treatment And
here the question arises what do all those people
be convinced that very few come for the water
Nothing at all in the way of comfort is promised,
and the only impelling cause is fashion. People
come here because it is fashionable to come and they
stay here and grumble just because every body else
does the same way They have no right to COM
people to come, treat them courteously while here,
nor beg them to stay. If they come to stay, there
fore, so far from grumbng, they ought to feel under
obligations to the proprietors for permitting them to
stay even in the merest hull of room, and live on
raw meat at $14 week.
"A better room was promised me To-Day, OUT
havn't got it yet, and there is friend of mine here
from North Carolina, who has been waiting ten days
upon similar PROMISE which is still unfulflIed.
have to walk half mile at least to get to the spring,
and but for the exercise and seeing the people, |
wouldn't take the walk for the water, board and
lodging thrown in
I was very hungry when got to the dinner table,
and sat down to eat anything could get, but when
my plate was brought to me, with piece of raw
meat of some sort from which the blood poured in
streams, couldn't 60 it, and had to give it up, and
l noticed couple of parties of gentlemen betook
themselves from the dining room to the restaurant,
just underneath, where they got very fine dinner,
for which, of course, they paid extra-and good
deal of it too.''

TucK.-There was Democratic jubilee on Indian
Ridge, Currituck, on the 18th Of August, in CON-
memoration of the recent brilliant victory achieved
by the ndomitable Democracy of the Senatorial

ance; and that veteran Democrat, Col. John B.
Jones, assisted by full corps of Vice Presidents
and Secretaries presided Able and eloquent speech
we're delivered by L. D. Starke and w. F. Martin,
Eseuires, and Hon. H. NJ. Shaw. The table groaned
beneath the substantals and deicacies which were,
served up on the occasion; and after the speaking
and eating were over, c. c. Williams, Esq, the Sen.
ator elect, and B. NJ. Baxter, Esq, the Commoner
elect, were hoisted on the shoulders of the crowd
and carried around amid hurrahs and much enthusi-
asm. Altogether it was glorious time for the Dc.
mocracy there assembled. May they have many
such victories in the future under the lead of such
men.

The KANSAS ELEcr1oN.-The board of election
Commissioners constituted by the English bill, have
issued proclamation declaring the proposition to
come into the Union with the ordinance rejected
by 9,512 majority. Kansas will therefore, remain a
Territory until she numbers 90, 900 inhabitants,
less the act requiring that number should be re-
peaed. The Kansas question is, therefore, still
settled. We see it stated that the people of Kansas
rejected the proposition two grounds, first, be-
cause if they had accepted it. the Legislature elected
under the Constitution would most probably have
chosen black Republicans to the United States Sem
ate; secondly, because they consider themselves
still too weak in population and to bear the
expenses Of State government and desire still
longer to enjoy the protection extended to life and
property by the general government
