The people of the United States read with
profound interest and sympathy the manly pro-
tests against British misrule which number OF
papers in British America, especially III Nova
Scotia, have the courage to publish. We give
this morning two interesting specimens on
another page. They breathe the right spirit OF
independence, which we hope will soon prevail
not in Nova Scotia alone, but III all parts OF
British North America. The United States have
nointentiOn whatever to wreot these provinces by
force from England still less TO annex them to the
United States against the wish of their inhab-
tants; but we cannot withhold our warmcst
sympathy from the Liberals who claim the right
of self government and prefer being American
freemen to being British subjects.

wept by the rivers of Babylon there never has
been so cruel bondage as that in which the
American Democracy is held by the Radical
party. The World puts the grievOus case of tho
Copperheads with startling simplicity and
force. Speaking of the Republican victory in
Colorado it says: 1.-THE County officers are all
Republicans. There is no chance for fraud by
" Democrats, simply because Democrats are noe
in power, and have no opportunity to commit

Democratic diversions have an Ominous ten
dcncy to felony The leaders thought it smart
to put Seymour in Chase's place at Tammany.
Now they think il smart to put Seymoul's face
in Chase'S place Oh the greenbacks. The change
on the ticket made it worthless; the change on
the greenback makes it little more so. The
bill is still good for its face; but with
that face on it, 1t is good for nothing
and little beyond that. For, rs Treasurer
Spinner pleasantly explains in another column,
the imitation of the currency OF the United
States is felony. Democrats in the more
ignorant districts are said to be passing these
counteIfeits for genuine greenbacks III large
numbers Down South, where money has not
been plenty after the SeymOur-Pendleton
idea, since the good old days of the Con-
fedeIate currency, this Scym0uriaced
stuff is being distributed TO the negroes,
with the assurance that, if they only vote for
the man whose face now makes il worth no
thing. he will, on his election make it worth
it's face The promise is an entirely safe one ;
and. ignorant us the negroes may be, they are
not ignorant enough to be deceived by IT, But
we commend TO the Grand Juries the law
about felony which Gen. Spinner cites.

up very strong in Washington the other nigbs

1t is still difficult, in view Of the contIadc-
tory dispatches from Spain, to ascertain the
truth about the progress and the prospects of
the revolution. We have, however, this morn
ing important admissions of the official Ga=effe
of Madrid. The official paper Acknowledges
that the insurgents were prevailing at Alicante,
at Leon, in Malaga, in the provinces of Bcjar
and AcOy, and that they have again occupied
Cordoya. These admissions are sufficiently
grave to prove that the revolution has assumed
formidable Dimensions. The abdieation of the
Queen needs confirmation. A great battle is
expected soon to take place between the royal
troops and the insurgents under Marshal Ser
rano. Gen. Prm docs not well agree with the
other Generals who have recently returned
from exile. The latter are supposed to
work for the Duke of Montpenser, while Prim
and Espartero are supposed to favor the estab-
lishment of republic.

Gov. Warmoth of Louisiana having vetoed
an extreme civil rights measure passed by
the Legislature, the cologed members are
naturally dissatisfied with his course. Mr.. b:
+. Flanders, however, one of the recognized
leaders of the Union party in that State, ex-
presses his belief that the dissatisfaction will
not endanger the success of the Republican
ticket at the Presidential election The plant
els, who still display most excellent capacity
in the art of never learning anything. are at
tempting to control the negro vote by threat
ening their laborcrs with discharge if they do
not vote the Rebel ticket. But Sambo aud
Cuflee, albeit of only siman brain power, have
sense enough to know that just about these
days there is a cotton crop to pick, and that
if they do not pick it nobody will. BY cOnSe-
quence they refuse to be greatly alarmed, and
respectfully propose, i'll spite OF The planters
threats, to vote as they please.

We have at last prospect in the Hid Min
nesota District for an adjustment of the dis
pute between the rival claimants of the
Republican nomination. Messrs Hubbard and
Donnelly. Gen. Hubbard proposed TO Mr.
Donnelly that a committee, composed of five
members. two to be chosen 10y each candidate
and the fifth by these -four, should be en-
powered TO examine all questions Of difference
relating to the nomination, and decide which is
the choice of the majority of Republicans in the
District-the decision TO be respected as final
by both. After a weeks delay, Mr.. DOnnely
concluded to accept this proposition, and each
has chosen his committeeman. We commend
the example thus set 20 the Republicans of the
With, With, and With Tennessee Districts. In
the lid Tennessee District, that trusted leader
of Southern Unionists, Horace Maynard, has
fairly received a denomination, and his defeated
rival, after entering into the contest in the
nominating Convention, now refuses to abide
it's verdict We appeal to every Republican III
that District to give no encouragement to Mr..
l.. G.. llOuk.

The bondsmen of George +. Champney, lately
clerk in the Taunton Mass National Bank.
will contest the payment of their bonds. These
are conditioned on the faithful performance by
Champney of his duties as clerk of the Taun-
"ton Bank which has now become the
Taunton National Bank" The point seems to
us to be pretty serious one, and we mention
the circumstance because it is possible that
some OF our old State Banks, now become Ma
tional, may have inadvertently left their bonds
without an alteration which may prove abso-
lutely necessary for their enforcement should
breach of condition occur.

Here's puff for you, Mr.. johnson. We find
it in one of the most furious Blair and Sey-
mour papers received at this Office. This ex.
cited sheet says very handsomely of you that
you periodically refused to become the tool

to add that you "took your stand resolutely on
:" the platform of the Constitution You will
find these patronizng sentences highly car
minative; and you had better cut them out and
put them in your wallet for a charm against
sea-sickness should you tempt the ocean wave
as it is rumorcd that you intend to do. They
are not much to show for such services n
yours, but they are better than nothing. They
may not quite assuage the anguish OF those
wounds Inflicted by the Democratic National
Convention, but they will relieve the smart
little. And you may say to that ancient
mariner, Mr.. Welles, that if We see any puffs
of him in the papers we shall not fail to print
them. Not that we expect to see any but We
may.

to take notice that one Breckenridge, of Ken

them the injuries which they inflicted upon his
fellow Rebels and himself. He said in speech
recently: LET il go forth that we have pro-

unity and liberty are now the paramount Oh
