the acquisition Of that island BY the United States
He knows perfectly well the determined posture OF
Spain in regard to Cuba, and that she has over
and over again. and .olemnly within she past year.
through all branches Of her Government declared
her irreyocable purpose not to aenate that posses
sion. He knows that this decision has been ie;-
ually communicated to our Government, along
with the distinct intination that any advances on
our part looking 10 the acquisition of the island
would be deemed unfriendly and offensive All
this Mr. Shde knows, and more. He knows that
in this position Spain backed by the active good
Will of France and by the sympathy OF Grea' BRIT
ain He likewise knows that there is an under
standing, if not secret treaty, between France
and England, that Spain shall be guaranteed tue
possession Of Cuba against all comers-a treaty OF
agreement entered into at the time those two Pow
srs proposed to our Government tripartte treaty
10 the same end.
Mr.. Sfden thus knows that there is not the re-
motest possibility of accomplishing the object no
processes to aim at; and yet, for mere partisan
purposes, for an imaginary, pitiiul contingent ad-
vantage in the coming Presidential election, he de-
hberately thrusts tho whole subject of Slavery be-
fore the Senate and the country, challenging anew
as his colleague and spokesman, Mr.. Benjamin,
did last Winter, full discussion of Slavery on its
merits He does il, knowing the country to be ex-
cited and irritated over the question, to degree
that requires the earnest endeayors of Unon-saVing
patriots everywhere to restore harmony, and main
tain fraternal relations between the States, and
when these very gentlemen cry out in the agony OF
their despair, against the al-pervading discussion
of the everlasting negro"
If at such time, and under such circumstances,
with the impOssibility of doing anything patent to
all the world with the John Brown fever stll lnger-
inc in the veins of the country, Mr.. Slidel ought
not to be rebuked by the professional anti-agl-
tators of the Slavery question, we should be glad to
be informed if time for such rebuke can ever
arrive. The Republicans of the Senate have thus
far avoided the topic of Slavery so far as possible,
and have only alluded to it under pressure which
they could not resist. The Republicans of the
House have likewise shown a most commendable
fo1bearance on the same subject though sOrey pro-
yoked by their adyersares. Why, then, should
Mr.. Slidell insist upon crowding the unwecome
topic before the Senate and the country We trust
that, TO say nothing of courtesy toward friendly
power, the Senate will have sense enough, con-
sideration enough, and dignity enough to- lay the
subject on the table and keep it there.

THE SOUTH PROTECTED.

Alarm and apprehension have recently, and not
unnaturaly, been current in the Southern States as
to the security and safety of their sayeholding citi-
zeDs. Apart from the bogus alarm which has been
stimulated by designing politicians, there has been
genuine, earnest fear that the slaves would rise
against their masters, or Northern invasion OF
their States be set foot or that, at all events,
Slavery would not be suffered 10 diluse itself where
by the South would be obliged to smash the Union
These spprehensions have impelled a parsonage

DOCTORS DIFFER.

Ex.Goy Washington Hunt assured the Union
savers that the Republican party had no lOngers
right 10 exist, because its work was all done. HeG
him:
But urged that their object prevent the extern
sion of slavery into Free Territories That pending

Us that be from too powerful 70 be

North and admits the fact"
To the same effect, Mr.. James s. Thayer said:
snow will you tell me what party based solely
extension OF Slavery in TeoIieshat contest 10 ended lap
plausep
The assertions of Messrs. Hunt and Thayer
might be accepted by many as conclusive, but for
the fact that, on the same day, the Hon. Otto X.
Singleton NJ. c. from Mississippi, addressing the
mass meeting of presump6ve NJ. C.s in the Repre-
sentatiyes' Hall, said:
T you suppose either the people of the South win

solution of Union We must have expansion inside Of the
Union but outside OF II we must iAppls1o uom

Messrs. Hunt and Thayer are hardly yet within the
pale of the great party and usually controlling
the Federal Government; Mr.. Singleton is in full
communion with, and has always belonged to it. Hs
says that Slavery wants expansion-more territory

Certain gentlemen styling themselves " The Ma
" tonal American Central Committee met yes
terday in Philadelphia to look after their chances
in connection with the next Presidential contest
They professed to desire union of the Opposition
in that contest Their chairman was Mr. Jacob
Broom of Philadelphia, who ran for Congress
against the united Opposition of his District in
1853, doing his best to elect the Democratic cand-
date, but making dead failure of it, polling only
253 votes out of more than 10000. Among the
members Of its Conference Committee we note the
names of Mr.. Broom aforesaid, Mr.. Anthony
Kennedy, Senator from Maryland, who, though
elected by the Opposition, votes generally with the
Administration, even for such a.rociOus vlainies
as the Leeompton Constitution, and Mr. Erastus
Brooks who tried to elect half the Democratic
ticket in our State last Fall and nearly succeeded,
and is now hard at work preventing an Opposition
triumph in the organization of the House. When
the Opposition is united under the lead of these
beauties, We shall al know it,

needless outlay-hat the paupers might be made 10

itself conclusive on this point If every panper IN

At last, we have from Southern Representative
q manly reputation and rebuke of that programme
of Treason and Disunion which the Democratic
spokesmen in Congress have for the past fortnight
unanimously expounded, to the disgust and indig-
nation of all patriotic citizens, yet of which our
Union-Sayng meeting in New-York was but an
echo The Hon. Joshua Hill Of Georgia, an Amer
can in his party connections, SAID yesterday in the
House Of Representatives, with great significance
of manner, that he would never, so help him God,
"consent to destroy tho structure under which we
Give, merely because a man with Objectionable
political principles should be elected to the PreSi-
"dency."
This is a declaration to which all patriotic and
sensible men everywhere will, with one heart, sub
scribe When the right of the majority to govern,
under the Constitution, is asSailed as it is now
assaed by the corrupt, disorganzed, and seditious
party of the Administration, it is high time for all
real friends of the Union and Constitution to speak
out. The country will honor Mr.. Hill for this
timely utterance.

Perhaps it would be as well for the dry goods and

meeting at the Academy of Music, avouched their
devotion to Slavery, to hold another 30 manifest

ONE other class Of white men beside the slave.
holders. The proceedings Of Monday night were,
in effect an indOrsement by vast number of the
commercial men of New-York, of the great Dis
union conspiracy now boldly developed and pro-
claimed by the Democratic leaders in Congress and
at the South But do the merchants of New-YOrk
imagine that becoming morally accessory 10 treason

their wares to the custom of the great body Of the
people If they do, we think they are mistaken
Differing political opinions are matters about which

overthrow the Government and bring civil warupOn
