The daily press. (Cincinnati [Ohio) 1859-1859, 1859-04-19


on Thursday, confirm in every particular the
Telegraphic intelligence recently published In
the "PREss," of the peaceful settlement of our
difficulties with Paraguay. I..F
URoUIzA AND LoPEz.-Urquiza is the richest
merchant and most enterprising trader in these
regions lie owns mills, saladeros, estancias,
cattle without number, and takes share in
every enterprise. There is a stage line to Cor
dova, 300 miles distant, with American coaches,
and he owns half the stock, 500, ,000 Lopez
has rooms full Of money, and is perfect miser.
He has the monopoly of three articles indis-
pensable to the people down the River-yerba-
mate, tobacco and wood. He pays his own
price to his people for those articles, and sells
them abroad for what he chooses to ask. Thus
he buys yerba at 81 80 per aroba of twenty-five
pounds, and sells it for So. His income is over
four millions from these three articles alone.
He has, in fact, population of 700, 900 slaves
under his subsection, and as he does not butcher
like DR.. Francia, who died poor, his reign of
tyranny is q relief to the reign of terror. If
any one sells tobacco or yerba TO any but the
Government, there is three months imprison-
ment and 81 900 fine.
EMIGRATION TO HAYTI.-About ten months
since, Soulouque, the late tyrant Of Hayti, made
overtures TO the free blacks of this country,
through an agency in New Orleans, to induce
them to emigrate to Hayti. Jeffrard has re-
moved the invitation, offering all who are will
ing to come to him, a free passage from New
Orleans, and free board and lodging for q
month after their landing. Paul e. Desdunes
80 Ruo des Champs Elysees New Orleans, is
Jeffrard's agent. A contemporary speaks of the
prospects as encouraging; "The opportunities
for advancement are abundant in Hayt. The
soil is perhaps the most productive in the
world, and the climate, though tropical, is
healthy. Skilled labor must therefore be very
remunerative in that island. The American
| negro will have manifold advantages over the
| native, because his training has been more
! thorough and effective. In this country he will
| never be admitted to any social or political
elevation above his present status. All the
logic in the universe could not effect it, grant
i ing that logic sanctioned it.. He must emi-
| CRATE If he would escape from membership in
a Pariah caste. In Hayti he will have no su-
perior. Here he can never dream of arriving
at equality. Let the free negroes emgrate by
| all means, and infuse American energy, skill
and republicanism into the Hayi Republic.
| By so doing they will escape from their de-
| graded and insecure position, and enter on a
new and brilliant field that surpasses Liberia
! in every respect"
| A WAR OF RACES is impending in the Island
| of Jamaica. 1t is not difficult to divine how
| it will terminate, should the colored people be
| so foolish as to push matters to the extent of
| an armed insurrection; for such is the aspect of
things in that island, at present. For some
time past a revolutionary spirit has been ram
pant in Westmoreland, and now it has reached
Kingston and its neighborhood. The cause is
the passing of an elective law, inimical to the
blacks, as well as the existence of other griev
auces, which they have petitioned the Govern
ment, in vain, to redress. A preacher, named
Roach, says correspondent, some weeks
since preached sermon to his deluded fol-
lowers, in which he said it was ordained by
God that the blacks should be the masters Of
the island; and that portion Of the Scriptures
which foretold this would soon be fulfilled, and
the white and mulatto population showed into
the sea- Cotemporaneously with the preach
ing of this seditious doctrine, another native
Baptist parson delivered the same discourse t.
his flock in st. Thomas, in the East. Thii
shows that there is some interchange of senti.
! ments among these men, and that spirit O.
revolt is spreading throughout the land. Grea
caution is required by those in power, and by
the upper classes.
SoULoUoUE.-Newsf from Kingston, Jamaica
to the 23d ult., state that though the Ex- En-
peror Soulouque still resides on the Island, b.
has not visited the government house, as i
was intimated to him that he would be receive,
as private individual only, while his Impe
rial Majesty expects to be received as an I'm
perial guestl The new Ministers Of Hayti +
England, France and Spain were on the island
as also deputation to Governor Darling
The Hnytien troops who attended them wer
most miserable-looking creatures, and wer
looked on with supreme contempt by the black
who have the honor to shoulder the muskeLs O
Victoria, The passage Of the Jamaica Immi
grafton act in England gave much joy to tn
planters. @ l9n p -.g l...

manager of cotton plantation near Tunis

They arrived short time since, and were found
f to work to the admiration of every body. The
Arabs Aocked from all quarters to see the
newly arrived wonder. The country was in
. ferment. Nothing else was talked of. Finally
it reached the ears of the Bey, who couldn'

own eyes. He hastened to the scene of action
