The Emperor Napoleon appears to be de-

berg; fos we learn by cable despatch from
Paris that he has ordered the frigate Jean
Bart, nov lying at Annapolis, to proceed to
this city br the purpose Of taking that monster
to France. II the peace Of Europe had not
been so recently secured for while, we might
attach some importance to this order. Having
made the purchase when war looked threaten

Revival sf the Slave Trade-Csolis Eni-
gratlou.

Revival sf tho Slave Trade-Ceolle Eni.
At this date in the progress Of civilization,
when slavery has been abolished in the United
States, and prospectively in Brazil, 1t is bewil-
dering to find that the laxlty Of the British gov
ernment, Notwithstanding all Its noisy profess
sions in favor Of negro emancipation, is directly
responsible for a revival Of the slave trade
between Africa and the West Indies. The
Jamaica papers inform us upon what seems to
be good authority, that since the arrival of the
new Governor General of Cuba the slave traffic
with Africa has considerably increased, and
that number Of steamers with large cargoes
Of bozales are continually arriving in the
island. These steamers are Of American build,
and run from thirteen to fourteen knots an
hour. They carry at least one thousand slaves
each. Several OF these slavers are reported to
have been seen by her Majesty's cruisers, but
they steam 50 rapidly that it Is impossible to
overtake them. Can the British government
be sincere in their avowed desire to suppress
this abominable trafiics II so, why do they
no, adopt the course pointed out TO
them years ago, and remove the blockading
squadron from the coast of Africa TO the
coat Of Cuba, where the slaves are
exclusively landed! We can easily con-
ceiyr how vitality this subject affects the
intensis OF the free producing colonies, and
especially Jamaica, which pays dearly for labor,
and must bitterly feel the unjust competition
to which she Is exposed in the markets Of the
United Kingdom.
In his connection the facts are noteworthy
that Sir John Peter Grant, the Governor of ia
maica Is busily investigating the abuses Of the
coolie system Of Emigration, which is, after
ALL bd q species Of slave trade, and that many
English families resident in the rural districts
Of the lsland are preparing to leave, and are
selling their landed property to negroes, in
lots to suit purchasers-for instance, in the
parish Of Metcalfe, In exchange for pigs and
poultry rather than pay the excessive taxation
upon land which could not proftably be culti-
yated.

fire upon town without sufficient provoca-

ticular attention to this incident It may
afford him an opportunity to annex tho
island Of Formosa, either by conquest or pur-
chase. II is rich and beautiful island in the
China Sea, right in the track Of the steam com
munication we are opening with the Fiowery
Kingdom, and has any number Of coallng sta
tions and other advantages We submit to the
Secretary of State whether 1t would not be .
capital opportunity to whip the Formosians
into selling their island, or to fight up large
debt against them, and then, after the British
and French plan, seize the island by way Il
payment As we are In the real estate and
annexing line of business, such Q valuable
chance ought not to be lost

So far as the politicians Of this city are con-
cerned, Greeley has fairly whipped in oil his
adVenaries. The copperhead Corporation,
notwithstanding the fact that he is the main
originator, prop and advocate of the odious
Excise law, Commiss1oAeqs and all, bestoxupon
him sixty thousand dollars worth Of Cerpora-
tion advertising: The "narrow-minded block
heads" Of the Union League back down from
their proposition to expel him from their asso-
citation, and. sneak of with dropping ears and
tails The "recent and venomous apostates''
who have. smarted under his lash cooingly APP
plaud him in their "minor topics," and besmcar
him with their approval. Copperheads, block
heads and apostaies all agree that his straw
bail for JEFF Davis was his own affair, and that
no person has any right to take him to task
about it.
The truth is they are all mistaken, and
Greeley laughs at them in bis sleeve for their
folly. The republicans Of the country-es-
pecially in the West-know tetter. Greeley
has himself shown that he did not become bail
for JEFF Davis simply as Horace Greeley-a
philanthropic and somewhat impracticable in
dividual-but as representative Northern re-
publican awho had been a conspicuous oppo-
nent of the rebellion" Without such man
on the bail bond Davis would have been still
held in Jail. This is what Mr.. Greeley said in
his paper on Monday last -
went to Richmond and signed the bond simply be-
cause tho leading counsel for the prisoner deemed IL
poriant Ir any other name would have answered as

who worth double tho amount for which they
became responsible and each of whom would es-

Greeley, therefore, stood forward az straw
bail for JEFF Davis, not as an individual, but as
the representative and in the name Of the
republican party Of the North; and his party
have perfect right, therefore, to repudiste the
act and to hold him responsible for his unau-
thorized use Of his position In the organization
TO secure the release Of the master spirit and
head of the rebellion. This is well understood
by the republicans throughout the country,
although it may not be clear to the "recent and
venomous apostates" who once belonged to that
party, nor to the anarrow-minded blockheads'
Of the Union League, who do not know how to
be useful to q good cause.

One Of the main features Of our recenh
news from Peru is the discussion of the
religious question In the Peruvian Con-
gress. This discussion took place on IL
I'd of April, when the three following
proposals were submitted to the House,
First, that the Roman Catholic religion he tho
religion Of the State, and as such be maintained
and protected. This was passed without oppo-
sition. Second, that the State would recognise
no other religion. This was passed with bub
one dissentient. Third, that the public worship
of any other sect or denomination should noA
be allowed or practised in the republic. This
third proposition excited the utmost turmoil
and disturbance for several days. Five -eighths
of the Congress were opposed to 1t and were
ready to vote for its rejection; but the govern
ment prevented this by prevailing upon some
Of the members and by purchasing the votes Of
others. The measure was carried by majority
of three. According to our special correspond
ent in Lima, religious tolerance practically
exists already in that city. There are two
Protestant churches in Lima, besides Jewish
synagogue and half dozen Buddhist temples
for Chinese worship. The first three of these
cannot be closed with impunity, and govern
ment is aware Of the fact. A wise and salutary
pressure upon the Cabinet had led to the intro
duction OF bill providing for the religious
wants Of the nonCatholic portion of the com
munty, and making it lawful for them to wor-
ship God as they please in private buildings.
upon private property. This bill, we are In
formed, had been well received and would be-
come law; and the question Of religious toler-
ance, notwithstanding all the turbulence 70
which it had given rise in the discussion, WIN
remain just where it has been all along
Neither party gains a jot or little any way.

FfO4Fes3 Ot tiufrht hueWs ~ &ntWN.
The Inauguration OF Catholic cathedral at
Pekin and the laying Of the first stone OF an
Anglican church at Kinkiang are facts full Of
promise for the Chinese empire. They are the
best evidences that we can have Of the COM
plete overthrow Of the policy Of exclusion
which has so long shut in its people from
intercourse with the rest Of the world. Reli-
gious federation is the first great step towards
commercial progress. The one follows as
surely on the other as political on commercial
freedom. The result in this case is rendered
all the more certain by the fact that no
particular sect or form OF Christianity is
favored by the Chinese government II will
therefore be to the interest OF the missionaries
of every Christian denomination to aid in
promoting the spread Of liberal political
ideas, so as gradually to bring that jealous
government within the influence Of the en-
largcd principles which at present regulate
the policy OF most civilized countries. As in
the case Of Japan, 1t il not unlikely that we
shall soon have commissioners here from II TO
investigate our industrial and agricultural
systems. and 70 endeavor to give q large
development to the political and commercial
relations OF the two countries. The facilities
Of communication between them which are
now in progress give TO such project
increased Importance. Az soon rs the Pacific
Railroad Is completed there is but very little
question that New York viii become the
great centre through which the trade Of The
two hemispheres will Cow.

vast sums Of money. In country like
ours where federation is general, error is
certain to appear as one Of the character
istlcs OF variety but the history of religion In
the United States proves that error asa rule
corrects itself Many religious bubbles have
already burst many more viii appear and
burst in their turn. Fourierism has gone ;
Free-loveism will follow; but what is solid
and substantial in religion will always remain,
and to Christianity the honor and the glory will
ever be due. The experiment made ON 80
grand scale In the United States will be con-
vincing to all future time that II is safest and
wissst for State to leave religion alone. The
success or non-success Of Mormon propagan-
dists Is matter Of indifference to us but Of
the doings Of the Catholic Congress in Boston
we shall be anxious to be informed.
