IHR NEW YORK Posr OFrIcR.-It has recent.
y come 10 lieo, that Isaac v Fowler. the Post
master .ot New York city, is detaulter to the
amount OF 100000. Mr.. Fowler has been a
leading Democratic politician, and expended
large sums upon elections, particularly ia 1855.
to carry Pennsylyania for Buchanan. Among
the Democratic politicians in New York there is
some very free talk The friends of Douglas af-
hrm that the matter has been pressed since the
Charleston Convention more through spite than
from any desire to vindicate the people 1t is
certain the deficiency has existed ever since Mr..
Buchanan came into office; and now it is
charged that it would have been arranged or
concealed If the New York delegation at Charles
ton had obliged the administration by abandon
ing Douglas. On the other hand it is denied
that factious feeling had anything to do with it
that Mr.. Fowler had been INDUCED to the ut
most possible extent with time but that instead
OF reducing the amount of his indebtedness, it
was rapidly increasing, and the possibility of his
making his accounts square at the close of the
June quarter was utterly hopeless; that the Gov
eminent could not bear with him longer, and
had so informed him. His expenditures at
Charleston were heavy. He cast everything
upon the hazard of the die, and his favorite,
Douglas, failed. A warrant was issued for his
arrest but he could not be found.
SENSIBLE SUGGESTIONS. The Southern Mont
tor, a Democratic paper of ability and influence,
published in Philadelphia, suggests that unless
the Democratic party can concentrate harmoni-
ously on Governor Wise in thirty days, they
shall make no nomination at all, but unite with
the friends of Bell and Everett against the Black
Republicans. 1t says:
1.-THE idea of nominating jeff Davis by sec
tional wing of the Democracy, is merely one of
the soap bubbles of Washington letter writers.
If such thing were done, Bell and Everett
would beat him in the cotton States. No. If
the Democracy cannot or aoiU not concentrate
on Gov. Wise, then there will be a universal
combination, North and South, East and West,
against the Black Republicans. The people will
run the Constitution and the Union against the
sectional Abolition traitors. Douglas cannot gel
the nomination, and if he were to run as the
candidate of sectional Northern Democracy
be could not carry any Of the Abolition States
Unless the Democracy can concentrate harmo
niously on Gov. Wise, in thirty days, there
should be no nomination at all. Then the Con
stitution and the Union would settle the hash oil
the sectional fanatics"

TILE MOORS.

In the earliest times the people on the
European and African sides of the Straits
of Gibraltar were the same, and the in
tercourse between them over the narrow
channel frequent. In the subsequent
movements of warlike tribes and peoples,
Spain and Barbary were successfully, in
whole or in part, overrun by the Cartha-
genians, Romans, Cloths, Vandals and
Saracens or Arabs, leaving both Spain
and Barbary, in the early part of the
eigth century, under the dominion of the
latter. Both became provinces of the
,Caliphs of Bagdad, and were ruled by
their governors. The Moors AS the
Arabs of Spain and Morocco were called
mingled their blood with the inhabi-
tants of the country, and for eight hun
dred years - much of the time as the
predominant power in the Spanish PENN
sula, Notwithstanding the invasions and
civil wars, instigated by religious bigotry,
to which they were Observation-Disclosures
themselves ip Spain, and under their
sway the country became powerful and
great. At the end of this period they
were subdued by the Christian States
which had arisen among them, and the
establishment of the Inqusition placed
their lives and everything they possessed
at the mercy of their conquerors. a
century of burnings, confscations and
horrors succeeded; when what remained
of them, in the beginning of the seven
teenth century, whom neither fire nor
fagot could convert, were expelled from
Spain and driven into Africa. This, and
the expulsion of the Jews which followed,
destroyed the greatness of Spain - her
commerce, her revenues, and her morals
leaving her crippled monster lying
helpless at the mouth of the grave she
had dug; from which condition, after a
lapse Of two centuries and half, she is
only now beginning to recover. The
Spaniards, like all the central and south.
ern nations Of Europe, are of mixed
blood made up of the several peoples
who have overrun their land; but in many
of the provinces, especially at the south
and east, the Arab or Moorish blood still
predominates. The war with Morocco
If it had not its origin in ancient memo
ries, can hardly fail to recall them, anC
inspire the Moors with frenzy of defence
and vengeance which will 60 far to maxi
up for their deficiency in the science o
