desirable object has alone divided public opin-
ion Colonization in Hayti for time, had its

in the way of executing that scheme, the Amer

VIEWS OF OTHER STATESMEN.
On the 9Th of December, 1859, Senator Trum-
bull of Illinois, said, in the Senate of the United
States: when we say that all men are equal
we do not mean that every man in organized So
ciety has the same rights. We do not tolerate
that in Illinois. l know that there is distinction
between these two races, because the Almighty
himself has marked it on their very faces, and in
my Judgment, man cannot. by legislation, or 9TH
erwise, produce perfect equality between these
two races, so that they will live happily togeth-
er.
II trust an idea foreshadowed by Mr.. Jeffer-
son, will hereafter become although it is not
now, part of the creed of the Republican party.
l mean the idea of the deportation of the free
negro population from this country. 1t seems
impracticable to transport this great body to Af-
RIGA. Let US obtain country nearer home, and
l know 1 may say for the people whom 1 repre-
sent, we will contribute literally of our means
to relieve the country of the free negro popula-
tiOn l hope it may become the policy of the
Republican party to deliver the country from
the only element which ever seriously threaten
ed its peace and furnish the means for re-
llevng it of large free negro population. By
such course we may lay the foundation for con-
tinued and permanent prosperity"
On the 18th of April, 1860, Hon. John Sher-
man. the distinguished Republican Senator from
Ohio, in speech delivered in the Cooper Insti-
tute, New York, expressed himself in favor of
''the gradual colonization of the negro popula-

The Committee on Foreign Affairs having re-
ported "A bill TO Congress authorizing the East
India, China, Japan and American Telegraph
Company, which has been chartered by the State
of New York, to lay a telegraph cable between
Asia and America, it came up for action on Mon
day and was passed. No subsidy was asked or
granted. But the bill provides that the United
States shall furnish the vessels to make the neces-
sary soundings and for laying tie cable. This
will put the government to little or no cost, as our
naval vessels on the Pacific side can as well be
doing that as cruising. They will at the same
time be contributing something to science while
sounding the Pacific ocean. The bill was uuani-
mously passed by the Senate. The cable from
America to Asia will be the last link TO encircle
the globe by the magnetic telegraph. 1t must
prove of great value to American commerce with
the rich and populous countries of Asia, and will
90 far to diffuse our Christian civilization over
half the human family. No nation is so favor
ably situated as the United States for commerce
with the Asiatic world-that for which
all the great maritime powers have been contend
ing for ages. The telegraph and steam power
across oceans are supplementary to each other in
developing and extending trade, and of the two
the telegraph is perhaps the most important. We
hope that within a year or two we shall be able
to speak instantaneously with the Chinese, Japa-
nese and other Asiatics, as we now do with Europe
through the wonderful agent of modern progress
and cIvilIzation.-Pinsburg Dispatch, March 8.
