Spain Backs Out In Disgust.

The Spanish Ministry, with The sanction Of
the Queen, have proposed to the Cortcs to
abolish the decree Of May 10, 1861, by which
San Domingo was formally annexed to the
mother country. There is little doubt that
The proposition will be eagerly agreed to, and
that the independence Of the rcvolted prov
ince will speedily be an accomplished fact.
The nation is sick Of war which has only
brought disgrace to Its arms and disorder to
its finances, and in which success would prove
eTcn more disastrous than the defeats Of the
past three years. For the ministry acknowl-
edge that their predecessors who cousumma-
ted the union were deceived as to the feelings
Of the Dominicans, who we're far from uunnl-
mously or in large measure desirous TO resign
the right to govern themselves. Withdrawal
from such conflict was imperative, even at
the expense OF Castilian pride, and the con-
fession that annexation had been more than
q crime-a b1undcr.
For the second time In the history of the
Island, the Latin rucc has been defeated and
expelled by the natiyes-those who, trans
fcrred to tho Confederncy, would be deemed
1t only for slavery because Of their inferiori.y
to the white man. Our Saxon blood accepts
the capacity to fight as the final test Of mau-
hood, and in the Antilles not less than ut
Port Hudson and at Fort Wagner, the dis
piecd color is reedecming itself on the battle
fields of its liberty. The Monroe Doctrine
the warning cry to the old world, MIND your
own atIhirs!"-to which unhappy Mexico has
appealed In vuin for s.1ceor, is undisturbed in
lis elumber By the Dominicans, whof have
trusted not presumptuously to their own
right arms In maintaining the political duality
Of the two hemispheres.
Will San Domingo continue isolated, or will
she g1ayitate towards that union with Haysi
which Was effected by President Boyer In
1922 and lasted for twenty years: So long
as The peace is kept between these contigu.
Gus States. their competition can be only
hcalthful. Nature seems, however, to have
designed their common island for homoge-
ncous population and q single government.

perhcaas, and thai It vas controlled By
traitors.
ID. That these traitors were In constant
communication with the rebel agents in
Canada
Cd. That these agents furnished them
money; and
.Ath. Tint with these funds arms were pur-
chased and shipped to Chicago and Indianap-
oils for the purpose Of releasing the rebel
prisoners and the destruction Of the two
cities.
This Is testimony that will not be contra
dicted, as it is the voluntary statement of the
highest officer Of the order. Now join to this
the fact that the arms were found here, that
parties were found in the act Of making am-
munltion for them, thai some Of those parties
dlyulged the whole plan Of attack, supposing
they we're doing 1t to friends, and the conspi-
racy is clear. Chicago, even with these fncts,
docs not fully appreciate the imminent dan
ger from which she escaped, or the debt OF
gratitude she owes 10 Gel. Sweet for his
prompt and efficient action. And this Is the
conspiracy which the Chicago 1saes laughed
at and denounced as Republican election
ccsing trick. That the plot did not succeed
is not owing to any relaxing Of that organic
<sflre In the rear"
We hope the Commission will be assiduous
in bringing ont every fact in this nelaEiouE
conspiracy, go that every man who has had Q
hand in 1t, or having knowledge Of it kept
silent, may be exposed and have his treason
branded upon him. We want to know oil
these men. ANY course will be commcnda'

Emigration West.

In consequence Of the continued hostilities
Of the Indians on the plains, the principle
emigration to the Western coast the coming
season will be BY water and it is fortunate
for The interest and comfort Of prospective
emigrants that the extortions Of the Wander
bllt monopoly hare been modified by the c.
tablishmcnt Of Peoples Association Line Of
steamers from New York to San Francisco.
This line Was established By n. O. Roberts
via Nicaragua, and is seven hundred and fifty
miles shorter than tlse<" Old Itlnc," ria AS
plnwall and Panama, whilst the transit across
the Isthmus by the new line is far more at-
tractiyc, not only to the tourist, but to the
casual traveller, as 1t comprises . voyage BY
steamboat on the Nicaragua River and lake,
affording all the variety Of landscape scenery
characteristic to tropical climes.
The establishment of this opposition line
Ia an enterprise that should receive the liber-
al patronage which 1t so justly merits, as it
has ef1ectually broken the power OF one Of
the most aggravating snd arbitrary monopo-
lies ever claiming the patronage Of the pub

We were favored, yesterday, with call
from Dr.. o. Il. Cougar, an eminent eeologist
and assayer. from Utah, who is En- route for
New York City, where he Is about to open an
assay Office aud agency for the Utah Mining
Association. The Doctor speaks in glowing
terms of the rich mineral wealth Of the great
unprospected country lying between Great
Salt Lake and Lake Utah, a distance Of TWEEN
1y.sevcn miles. Gold, silver, copper and lead,
promise abundant returns, and valuable veins
Of zinc, nickel, sulphur, plumhago and car
Donate and nitrate Of soda, have been found.
These mines arc as yet undeyeloped to any
extent. and it Is Gen. Connor's plan to open
them and settle up the country, not alone for
the advantages accruing from the minerals,
but for the effect such settlement must have
upon the adjaccnt Mormon colonies. Gen.
Ccnnor Is an able, efficient officer, aud thor
oughly understands his dutics, aud it is safe
to soy that the Government is seconding his
efforts, in inducing the emigration Of 3 sub
stantial and industrious class of population,
as one Of the most potent influences to check
the growth of Mormonism, and restore that
rich country to civilization and q proper re-
gard Tor the amenities Of life. Few induce
ments can be found SO tempting as these

ed, and promise rich harvest to the pio-

Owing to the advance OF Gen Grant towards the
rebel lines, gold has again fat1en and the general
markets., which were yesterday buoyant and &c
tire, are to-day dull and dropping.
The Provision markets we're extremely fat md
uninteresttng. The active speculative inquiry
which existed yesterday had entirely disappeared,
and there was more anxiety to buy than to sell,
and very little inclination to do either. Ness Pork
was In limited demand at $780, but the offerings
were light at $34oc@ $500, according to qu11ity.

THE CHICAGO CONSPIRACY
The testimony in the Chicago conspiracy

We do not now refer to the testimony Of de-

of American Knights in Illinois, . society
which was upheld by tho Chicago 1fmes, and

Of which the machinery Of the Coppeshead

of this secret order. He attended the meet
