Spain s slavery and the Slave Trade,

The London Anti-SlGUery Reporter con.
tains some accountQf a movements recently
made in the Senate of the Spanish Cortes.
Senator posada Hernnfnas has advocated the
abolition Of the slave trade, and the consid-
Grafton of the subject of emancipation. The
Minister of Marine replied, and while urging
deliberation and due regard to existing in
terests, admitted that the work of emancipa-
ton is the work Of Christianity. The pro-
gress Of this work has always been slow, and
slower in Spain than it was in England, be-
cause the English elements OF success-a well
organized agitation. q free press and the liber-
ty 4 speech-are wanting in Spain. The
Reporter says:
The native Cubans are said 10 be nearly
unanimous in favor of gradual emancipa-
tion," while the Spaniards and slave traders
are opposed to it. Still, the slave trade is
vigorously prosecuted. Thirty thousand me-
groes are annually imported into Cuba, ebuiv-
alent to ninety Thousand exported from the
coast. So long as slavery exists the slave
trade will also continue. Destroy the market
and supplies will no longer be furnished.--
Whatever good has been effected in promoting
African. commerce. and civilization Is the d.
rect result OF Missionary effort; and OF the
partial cessation OF the slave trade at Brazil.
The result Of the rebellion against our
government viii have a strong tendency to
hasten the abolition of the slave trade and the
progress Of emancipation in Spain and Brazil
The rapidity of the work of emancipation in
this country will startle these nationalities in
to new life on these great questions, and give

SUDDEN DEATH.-A private dispatch re-
ceived in this city, conveys the painful intel
hgence of the death Of s. w. Turner, ESQ.,, OF
Skowhegan. he died at his residence in that
town, on Wednesday, after brief illness
which was deemed dangerous only a few hours
before it terminated fatally. Mr.. Turner was
County Treasurer for Somerset, OF which
county. he was High Sheriff. and he held vari-
Gus other offices of trust and responsibility. =
he was man widely known and highly es-
teemed, one whose honorable and upright
character, sound judgement and practical
good sense gave him much weight in the pub
lie affairs of his section, while In all private
anc social relations his kindly and genial quail
tiles endeared him to all with whom he was
brought 10 contact What adds peculiarly to
the painful circumstances OF his sudden death,
is the fact that be was at the time engaged in
preparations for the approaching marriage Of
a daughter, and wedding guests were already
assembled in the house in which the funeral
pail thus sddenly falls over the bridal festivi-
ties. bis loss is one which will be widely and
deeply deplored. aagaas a1oases
