THE New VOLCANIC ISLAND IN THE
GRECIAN ARCHIPELAGO The sudden
rise of volcanic island in the Gre
clan Archipelago is one of the most
remarkable phenomena of modern
times. A correspondent at Patchogue,
Long Island, sends to the New York
Herald an extract from private let
ter, written near the scene of the
occurrence, giving the following inte-
resting details:
SYRIA, GREECE, February Is, 1856
The island of Santo-
rini has been in eruption for six
whole days-soae say more. It is
about sixty miles from here, and the
water for long distance around the
island is boiling and steaming to a
tremendous degree. An island has
sprung up from under the sea, not
far distant from Santorini, which
seems to be mountain of coal or
lava, and is now about 500 feet above
the surface. Day before yesterday, q
special steamer was sent by the local
authorities of this place to inspect the
appearance of the new island and the
condition of Santorini. The French
Consul joined the expedition. Among
the returned passengers was one gen
tleman who landed on the new island,
and brought back in his pocket five
eggs, cooked hard, which some un-
lucky sea bird had prematurely de-
posted upon the new land, which we
have named the phenomenon"
The new island is several miles in
circumference, but being of volcanic
origin, it is supposed it will disappear
when the internal action subsidies.
The water in its vicinity creates a
great tumult, like a boiling cauldron,
and at night shows white flames.
There is one curious fact in this
connection. About ten years ago, 6
vessel of considerable size was sunk
near the is.and of Santorini, and now
oil at once, up comes the vessel as
good us new.

GOLD AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS. .-Sa-
turday was an exciting day in New
York. The gold market and the
general condition of monetary con-
Germs threw Gotham into very great
agitation. TIE price of gold ran
down to 1247s, and closed at 1855.
The struggle between the bulls and
bears was energetic and obstinate.
To the outsiders the contest was in
teresting, but to hundreds of those
in the ring, it was appalling. In the
vibrations of the gold market of the
last four months, thousands have
been ruined in purse; while the de-
moralizing effects of it's desperate
speculations have inflicted upon nu-
merous Others the still greater in
jury of loss O character, honor and
everything.
The present aspect of the great
Gotham is al omalous, indeed. With
a superabun lance of money, it finds
itself in thr greatest strait it has,
perhaps, ever known. Every branch
of trade is 0, crdone With merchants
hard pressed and eager to sell, and
an unusuallI- limited number of
buyers, goods have rapidly fallen,
and still the demand is not increased.
The expedient seems to exert no more
effect than the whistling for breeze
during a calm at sea. In the mean
time, rents and other expenses of bu-
siness are extravagantly high, and
though receding somewhat, are not
declining iii any manner compatible
with the reduced profits and limited
resources of the trade.
In such II case, money is perfectly
helpless. The capitalist may advance
1t to enable the merchant to meet i'm
mediate acceptances; but will that
put him in better condition to outliye
the great revulsion which is evident
from the all-pervading pressure of
the day? Money employed with that
object only increases the weight upon
the community and the violence and
crash of the ultimate fall. The loss
upon goods cannot be borne by the
trade, and to prolong a struggle by
mourning heavy debts on loans, with
no prospect of an advance in prices
and q recovery from the pressure in
any available time, would be folly. 1t
cannot be done.
Saturday, therefore, was day OF
excitement in New York. The South
ern States and Southern crops OF
other days would relieve the pressure
by supplying the foreign exchange
and the home demand. This is a
dead resource now, and will be MS
long as radicalism bears sway
In this city there is pressure and
some rumored failures; but, really,
there is not rauch room to fail at the
South. We are in the condition o1
the man who, falling down steep or
a. dark night, imagined that he was
falling some 200 feet. Fortunately
just as he went over the brink, he
seized sapling and held OF to it fo,
life and death. There he hung unit
his power was exhausted; his hands
involuntarily let go their hold, anc
he fell-aboM four inches!

crrity of the colored race safeguards
which go infinitely beyond any that
the General Government has ever
provided for the white race. They
interfere with the municipal legisla-
ton Of the States, witn tie Ie...y,ions
existing exclusively between State
and its citizens, or between the inha-
bitants of the same State, in the
absorption and assumption of power
by the General Government, which,
if acquiesced in, must sap and destroy
our federative system of limited
powers, and break down the barriers
which preserve the rights of the
States. 1t is another step, or rather
stride, towards Capitalization and the
concentration of all legislative powers
in the National Government. The
tendency OF the bill must be to resus-
citate the spirit of rebellion, and to
arrest tie Progress Of those influences
which are more closely drawing
around the States the bonds of union
and peace. My lamented predeces-
sor, in his proclamation of the 1st of
January, 1863, ordered and declared
that all persons held as slaves within
certain States and parts of States
therein designated, We're and thence
forward should be free; and further,
that the Executive Government of
the United States, including the mill
tary and naval authorities thereof,
would recognize and maintain the
freedom of such persons. This qua
rantee has been rendered especially
obligatory and sacred by the amend
ment of the Constitution abolshing
slavery throughout the United States.

ton to protect and defend that class
Of our people whenever and wherever
it shall become necessary, andio the

stitution of the United States.
