The K. G. Ca few Remarks Thereon.

A society Of the K. G. c., or knights
Of the Golden Circle, will be formed in
this city at an early day. The origi-
majors of this mystic order Were certain
military characters who resided in Lex
incton, kentucky-the spring Of 1854
being the date of its organization. The
first object OF the organization was to
cultivate q martial spirit among the
people Of the South. The second object
was to have u military organization III
the South fnlI,y capable Of defending our
social and political rights from all as
saults from our enemies at home and
abroad. The past history and present
aspect Of our political affairs seemed to
demand that an organization such as
the X. G. c., fully armed and equipped
and differed, was absolutely necessary.
The order has steadily grown until now
it numbers nearly forty thousand mem
pcrs, who are scattered oycr the South
ern States Of the Union and the North
crn States Of Mexico. No society OF
the kind has in this country combined
such an amount of talent, resources or
numbers as has this. If we understand
correctly, the present object Of the K.
G. C. is the invasion of Mexico. 1t is
we'll known, that in this distracted
country a cruel war has ragged with
scarce an intcrmission, for the past ten
years. The country has been weakened
by these intestine feuds; agriculture,
commerce and manufactures have Ian
guished, and the Mexican people have
groaned under the oppression and tyra-
ny of rival chieftains. At the present
time there are two parties i'll Mexico,
c%ontending for the supremacy Of the
government. On the one hand stands
the church party, with Miramon as their
leader. On the other hand stands the
liberal party, with Juarez as their lead
er. Our Minister to Mexico, Mr.. Nc
Lane, has recently made a treaty with
Juarcz, which will be one of vast bene-
fit to our government. Our government
has already recognized the Liberal par
ty as being the government of Mexico.
The X. G. G. have already espoused the
cause of the Liberals, and we are in
formed that it is their fixed determine
ton to place it at the head Of the Next
can Government, and thus aid them in
restoring peace and harmony to a dis
tracted country and an oppressed people.
Our citizens will be addressed shortly
on the subject Of armed intervention in
the affairs of Mexico, by n of tbe,most
distinguished Of the knights of the
Golden Circle" when we hope to see a
large turn out. We speak what we
know, or, as Hamlet would say, by
the card" OF this subject. The state
ments we have made in this connection
have been derived from parties who are
perfectly reliable and who are entitled
to respectful consideration. Long live
the K. G.. C.'s. [Vicksburg Sun.

s9"The story has obtained very gen.
cral circulation and belief in Cuba, (says
the Delta,) that General Jose de la
Concha had been recently killed in a
duel in Spain, with the Marquis de la
Pezuela, who was his predecessor in
the Captain-G eneralship of the Island.
It is known that when Pezuela was sup
planted, he exhibited his disgust, in
strong terms, in his farewell address to
the Cubans, referring to the peaceful
and bloodless character Of his admins
t%ration, which was regarded as a palpa-
BILE hit at Concha's severity towards the
Revolutionists of 1850. If Pezuela had
not Disguised the people Of Cuba and
Of this country by his silly anti.slayery
sentimentalisms, he would had some
sympathy and respect, on leaving his

SHoEMAKER's STRIKE.-The Shoe and
Leather Reporter Of the 18th ult. says;
In the manufacturing towns, we find
that strikers stock is in rather a de.
pressed condition, and shares are get
ting below par. 1t is doubtless nearly
time for the bubble-to burst:
Most of the shoemakers at Newbury-
port have gone to work.and the major
ity in nearly all the towns where meet
ings have been held, are employed, a
large portion Of them never having en-.
tered the combination.
It is expected that the strike at Natick
will shortly terminate.
The leaders of the Haverhill strike
acknowledge that the workmen are fur.
ther from their object than when the
strike began.
In Lynn, the female strikers are firm,
but they cannot hold out much longer
without greatly increased subscriptions
in money. Many .iourneyrnen are incl.
ned to give in, and it is stated that from
three to four hundred have gone to work
at about the old prices. There is no hope
OF the bosses signing the bill Of wages.

had voted a donation of 800 to the
Lynn shoemakers.

The DouGLAs FEELING IN WISCONSIN
A correspondent writing from Lacrosse
Wisconsin, under date of March 18th
says, in regard to the hue and cry thai
is raised about Douglass popularity in
that and the adjoining States, that it is
"all talk, talk, talk, got up by interest
ed parties, who imagine that if Douglas
is elected to the Presidency, they would
be invited to seats in the Cabinet. /
candidly believe that if the Democracy
Of the State could this day express their
free opinion, personally, not over one-
third of the whole would give their pre-
ference to Douglas, Notwithstanding this
tumult. With a man in whom the people
could feel implicit confidence, ! have no
doubt that Wisconsin and Minnesota
could be carried by the Democrats the
ensuing fall" He thinks "that, with
Gen. John E. Wool for a nominee, the
Western States would give a larger
majority than ever Las been given for

Des~ Affairs IN Europe are every oay
assuming a more portentous aspect
Another war, which cannot like the last,
be confined to the limits Of a Peninsula,
appears to us Inevitable. It is really
strange, at this age of the world, that
all the great national imbroglios, at this
moment threatening the world with war
and internal strife, may easily be traced
to the ~perfdious and blighting influence
of priestcraft. 1t cannot be denied, that
with us, Abolitionism may clearly be
traced to the teachings and influence of
New England's clergy. In Mexico,
liberal institutions would long Since
have been established on a permanent
basis, had they not been considered OPP
posed to the interests Of the priesthood.
And now, the mighty Napoleon finds
himself unable to carry out his plan OF
freeing Italy from foreign domination
because, %forsooth, the Pope in conse'
quence may loose a few unwilling sub.
jects, and a few square miles Of terrific.
ry. How long, in the name of common

CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE KING OF SAR.
DINIA-PLor TO AssAssINATE G~ARIBALD1.-
The Ed RItalia of March 18th contains
a remarkable statement, which we trans
late. The editor says:
From private Ietters coming to us
from Milan, we learn that the police of
Milan have just discovered an atrocious
scheme, the object of which was to as
sassinate Victor Emanuel on the occa-
sion of his entry into the capital Of
Lombardy. One Of the c%onspirators, a
certain Count Brambilla, the same who,
in 1910, distracted golden medals from
the Georgian museum, was arrested.
and on his person were found suspicious
documents and large sums of money
destined for the Pontifical court. Other
conspirators, all Austrians or priests,
are in the hands of the police.
By another correspondent we are as
snred that the indefatigable Farini has
discovered a vast conspiracy, organized
by various officials at Verona, aided by
the anti-Napoleon party of France. The
intercepted correspondence shows that
the conspirators intended to make use
Of the dagger and poison in carrying
out their schemes. One of the intended
victims was General Garibaldi. The
Courts of Naples and Rome were igno-
rant Of the conspiracy, but would have
been informed Of it. The director of
this plot was a famous ruffan of the ex-
Duke of Modena, n Virginia Alpi, Of
Forli, the very type Of the desperate as
