Our information g not of the most reliable char.

ness Of the statement.
The negroes carried high hand all the way up
the river, or as far up as heard from, we have no
doubt We have no doubt that the ranches have
been outrageously pillaged.
and that the negroes have pronounced against the
government; that another rebellion has been in
augurated. Many are preparing to leave, but
where to go, they don't know.
Of Cortina we profess to know but little; he is
so nearly ubiquitous that it is hard to keep track
of him.
Two of his officers were in town yesterday, for
the purpose, probably, of getting snuff of Mata-
moros air. Whittier they came and whittier they
went, we have no means Of knowing.
Cortina, with his forces fully marshaed, is I'M
doubtedly threading his way down the river: but
whether he has any needle guns we cannot posi-
lively say.
He was said, by some persons in the secret to
be, yesterday morning, at the Bogotes, about six
leagues from the Heroic City.
In the approaching fight between Canales and
Cortina-tWo deadly enemes--we are an indiffer-
ent spectator but we cannot disguise the fact
that Cortina is prince by the side of his antago-

HoNoR.-There is an old and we'll known prin-
Cpe among all classes of men, that striking an
antagonist when he is down" is very mean
business. The principles applies with peculiar
force to the present condition of things in this
country. National honor is quite as important as
individual honor. The national honor has been
pledged over and over again to the people of the
North as well as Of the South, and the radicals
unhesitatngly violate the pledges. But are there
not among them men who can see the importance
of preserving the honor of the nation in the eyes
of the world, without reference to any written or
resolved pledges free people striking and
continuing to strike PROSTATE foe, trampIing on
him with iron heel, is not pleasant sight to the
world. 1t does not give to the world any exalted
picture of American politics, or even of American
civilization. There was never an instance of
more absolute submission than that of the South.
The utterly broken down condition of the whole
Southern mind passes description. The honorable
course for the American ople-the course which
would Justify our claim to be opponents of the
true principles of liberty and free government
the course which would convince the world that
our government is what we once called it, the
most benihcent on earth-would be to say to the
PROSTATE States, " You have been compelled to
abandon your secession heresies, and we now
withdraw our hands from your throat; rise and
govern yourselves according to the great prin-
ciples we have all learned in the progress of our
common Civilizations
The contrary treatment is cowardy. 1t indi-
Gates fear. 1t shows want of confidence in the
doctrine of selt-gOvernment. 1t is the conduct of
man who has fought because he hates his an
tagonists and intends to add torture and huma
ton to defeat. In the present case it is equiva
lensto saying to the world, "we have boosted
great deal of free governments, but, on the
whole, we do not dare to trust some millions of
OUT avn people, educated in our system, to gov
eriRsthemseves.
With what show of reason can we tell the people
of Europe that ours is good system of govern
eminent when they see such an exhibition of
want OF confidence in it on our own part? They
would rightly reply to our argument that we can
not get along ourselves without practicing the
most tyrannical measures of their old autocracies
that we erect an aristocracy, pretending to base
it on high moral principle, or on superior politi-
cal and social views, and that aristocracy gov
erns millions of non-voting unrepresented citi-
zens. For the whole course of the radicals
toward the South is opposed to the stprinciples
of democracy and popular government

THRILLING SCENE AT A BULL FIGHT.-The Paris
Moniteur du Soir gives the following account OF a
fatal accident at bull fight 4 rEspagnol, which
occurred q short time since in the old Roman cir
Gus Nismes: 1t was evident when the very first
bull appeared that the pretended Spanish tor
readoes, or at least some OF them, either knew
nothing of their dangerous business, or We're in
such a state of excitement as to lose their heads.
They irritated the bulls in most unnecessary ways,
and their rashness was only equaed by their
awkwariness At the beginning of the perform
ance the bulls, which, though good enough for our
amateurs, were tame creatures indeed when com
pared with the genuine furious Spanish animals
knocked over several of the torreadors, though
without hurting them. With the fourth bull the
unfortunate Cabrera attempted the hoop game
But instead of watching the bulls movements, anG
holding the hoop on one side so as to avoid the
rush, he held it in both hands exactly before hi
breast aud the bull, after running his horn
through the paper transitXed the man. The othe
torreadors in the circus rushed to his cOmrade AM
picked him up. They opened his Kaistcoat to SET
where he was hurt. Supported by them he walket
two or three steps, then slipped from their hand
and fell heavily A torrent of blood gushed from
NJ his breast and he was quite dead. The sight
blood caused great emotion among the audience
| and several women tainted.
