The insunection which lately broke out on
some of the plantations of Cuba must, in the
tide of things, have an influence beyond its bare
suppression. 1t does not seem that the blacks
violated any law at the start, but rather that
the masters were the legal culprits. Forty
emGneipadoes came before one Of the planters
and demanded their freedom on authority of the
Gaeeta Of March 2, ordering their rendition TO
the Government. The patrones or masters hav-
ing failed to obey the Government decree, the
emaneipadoes refused to work and took measures
for self.protection. Several other plantations
at once followed the example. These blacks,
who are the native Africans Of recaptured slave
expeditions, and were hired out by the Govern.
ment, appear TO have endured o kind Of tenn
porary slavery or apprenticeship to the
planters. The text from which they assert
their rights is q royal decree propagated
by tho Captain General commanding that
within fifteen days from date the respect.

IMMIGRANTS. s.-Mr. Williamson, of
Caddo, one of the most intelligent
and useful members of our Legisla-
ture, has introduced three bills into
the House of Representatives, for the
several purposes of creating bureau
OF immigration, of protecting immi-
grants after they have arrived in our
city, and for the further protection
of immigrants coming to this city
whilst on board Of ships. These bills
seem to us to be framed with great
wisdom and practical good sense.
The object they have in view, to wit:
to encourage and protect the immi-
grafton of laborers to this country, is
well worthy of the consideration and
action of our Legislature. Our policy
is to invite and encourage the influx
of laborers from every part of the
world. They must, however, have
some security and protection against
extortion and imposition, and Mr..
Williamson's bills are framed with
this view. We hope they will COM
mand the early and serious considera-
ton of the Legislature.

A "REMINISCENCES the 25th of
May, 1859, but little more than seyen
years ago, a Convention was held at
Cleveland, Ohio. It was styled Con-
vention of the Sons of Liberty, and
was presided over by Joshua r. Gid
dings, lately United States Consul
General for the Canadas. Upon its
Committee of Resolutions the chief
man was Beniaman F. Wade, then,
as now, United States Senator from
Ohio. That committee brought for
ward series, of resolutions, which
were. adopted, the principal one being
as follows: tt "'a
sResoloed, That the several States
comprising the United States O;
America are not united on the princi-
pie Of unlimited submission to their
General Government, but that, bv
compact, under the style and title Of
Constitution for the United States.
and of amendments thereto, shey con-
stitpted. a. General Government for
certain definite powers, reserving.

ment;; ard that whatsoever the Gene
raj Government assumes undelsgated

void, and of no force, and being void
can derive no validity from mere iu-
dlclal interpretation; that to this com
pact each State acceded as State,
and is an integral party; that this
government, created by this com
pact. was not made the exclusive or
final Judge Of the extent of the pow
ers delegated to itself, since that
would have made its discretion, and
not the Constitution, the measure of
Its power; but that, as in all other
cases of compactamong parties having
no common judge, each party has an
equal right to judge for itself, as well
of infraction as of the mode and mea-
sure of redress. y 3.
Salmon p. Chase, ex-Secretary of
the Treasury, and then Governor of
Ohio, was present, and made speech
warmly endorsing the resolutions.
William Dennison, Ex-Governor of
Ohio, and now Postmaster-Genera

vention and endorsing it's proceedings.

The united delegations of the
States and Territories ON the Pacific
coast, called upon the President on
Saturday, and requested him, through
Senator Conness, in pursuance of in
structions received from their con.
stituents, to give the Pacific coast
representative in his Cabinet, mainly
on account of the difficulties con-
nected with their land titles. The
same request was preferred to Mr..
Lincoln about the time he appointed
Mr.. Harlan. The impression left
upon the minds of the delegation by
President Johnson's reply was that
he would take the matter into favor
able consideration.

EMIGRATION TO TExAs.-The IT,

EMIGRATION TO TExAs.-The Texas
journals represent the tide of i.nmi-
grafton to that State as continually
flowing and increasing. Texas has
suffered less than any of the other
Southern States during the war, and
has vast extent of public domain
available for new settlers. Being less
exposed than her sisters to the incur
sions of the Federals, she became
place of refuge for unfortunates
driven from their homes; her mate
rial wealth was increased thus, and
at the cessation Of hostilities she was,
financially, in far better condition
than could have been expected. With
all these advantages. and a salubrious
climate, she needs only "reconstruc-
ton" to give to her development an
impulse which will be irresistible.

Congressional Lsgislation.


The New York N9srs Justly says
the necessities of the country, more
urgently, perhaps, than ever before;
,.emand the attention and action of
Congress in behalf Of projects of in
ternal improvement and industrial
progress, But, unfortunately for the
general welfare, there has been no
Congressional session. in which more
time has been wasted in the discus
sion of partisan doctrines, for the
qualification of the ambition, the pre-
JUDGES and the hatreds of dema-
gcgues ana fanatics. The records Ct
both Houses exhibit the prevalence
of a spirit of bitterness, jealousy and
vindictiveness, on the part of the ma
jorities, that renders it impossible to
fulfill the intention of national legis-
iation. The material interests of the
Republic have suffered much from
civil war, and the least that could be
expected from faithful representa-
tives of the people, would be the: ex-
ercise of their talents and energies
for the recuperation of the CONNER
cial and industrial spheres, of both
sections. The resources of the land
are abundant, but many of them re-
main undeyeloped and unappGed,
while legislators are launching phi
hppics against each other, denounc-.
ing the Executive, venting their
spleen and malice in Wild and angry
harangues, and losing the golden
hours of opportunity in wilderness
of party intrigues and recriminations.

bored diligently to restore relations
OF mutual confidence between the

principle that, as these people were
compelled to live together, the inte-
rests of both parties would be pro-
noted by the relations between them
being harmonious, and I have sue
ceeded beyond my expectations.
Planters exhibit their confidence in
the freedmen by planting to the full
of their ability, and the freedmen, by
their good conduct and industry,
seem determined to convince every
one that they may be relied upon in
their new condition. - ..t

ALEXANDER II. STEPHENS. ST.
Louis Dispatch thinks the presence of
Alexander H. Stephens at Washing

''The press OF the South has q

cause: L regret to see SO much vitu-
peratlon in some Of the Southern
press against individuals. It cannot

A candid mind, though it may differ
from writer, can read his produc.
tlons with pleasure when he discusses
subjects with candor, dignity and
moderation, and does not descend
from the consideration of measures
to the denunciation of individuals;
