Gold closed in New York yesterday at ISL Prussia has ordered her officers at Bremen to arrest Prussian subjects seeking to emigrate to avoid military service. On the 22d nit., a gang of Chinamen, working on the Pacific Railroad, in California, was buried nuder a snow drift, and fl ve of them perished. The United States Government, it is said, is treating with Spain for the purchase of the Island oil Minorca. A difficulty occurred in Hampton on the 29th. A party of negroes made an attack on a store to avenge one who was shot while attempting to steal They were dispersed by the military. A. T. STEWART ?B about to retire from active business. We believe he is not worth more than $60,000,000, and should think he would remain in business TITI till he had amassed a competency. BEECHES, ia his sermon last Sunday, entertained his audience by illus tra tiona from the recent Ocean Yacht Race ; very complimentary to the winner, yoong BENNETT ; and .it ?B in old BENNETT'S paper we are informed of the fact. There were 123 railroad accidents in the United States last year, involving loss of life, killing 683 persons and wounding 156. During the previous yoar there were 32 such accidents, with the loss of 1V88 lives, and the wounding of 265. A dispatch from Washington, dated Sunday, says BEN. B?TLEB is stirring up the Radicals to the work of impeachment. He told a well-known Boston lawyer to-Say that he was confident that the South meant another war, and that the Radi? cals should lose no time. "Editing a newspaper is a good deal like making a fire. Everybody snpposeB he can do it a little better than anybody else. We have seen people doubt their fitness for apple peddling, ox driving, and counting laths ; but in all our experience we sever met with that individual who did not think hs could double the circulation of any paper in two months. In the latest edition of . 'Carpenter's Physiology" it is mentioned that out of three hundred andfifty nine idiots in England, the condition of whose progenitors could he ascertained, ninety-nine were children of absolute drunkards, and a large pro? portion of the parents of the remainder were more or less intemperate. Of the three hundred and fifty-nine idiots, seventeen were the children of pa? rents nearly related by blood. The amount of floor inspeoted in Baltimore du? ring the past year was 907,326 barrels, of which 138,576 were Howard Btreet, 327,445 barrels City Mills, 326,761 barrels Ohio, and 64,544 Family. Be? sides thc above, there were inspected 11,127 barrels rye flour, and 45,052 barrels cornmeal During the year 1865 tho inspections of wheat amounted to 934,911 barrels, being 76,685 more than during the past year.. A Washington special says the Government has been informed by Sir FHEDEBICE BEE CE that the English man-of-war Bolivar, while at Laguayra, was taken possession of by her crew, and had cleared for parts unknown. Efforts will be made to detain her should she visit American waters. Tbl? is important. If a pirate is afloat, it is weU t j know it. The Eastern question is assuming a very serions aspect. NAPOLEON is said to have proposed to England, Austria and Italy to form with Franco a quadruple alliance, in view of approaching trouble In that quarter. Italy has addressed a firm note to Turkey on the subject of the steamship difficul? ty on the Cand?an coast. The relations between Greece and Turkey are very critical and England lias addressed a note of warning to Greece con? cerning an invasion of Thessaly from the kingdom. The Deputy Commissioner of Internal Revenue lias decided that a marriage certificate, issued by the town clerk in compliance with the statute law, and for public as well as private purposes, lind used not only as a marriage license, but also ihr town and State records, does not require a ?tamp when issued by the clerk ; but the certificate of the clergyman or magistrate who performs the marriage ceremony should have a five cent stamp. About two years ago a San Francisco judge sen tenced a young man to prison for having flited out u rebel privateer. After a few months confinement he was released. A penniless adventurer, he dis? covered a quartz mine, which he succeeded in sell? ing fox several thousand dollars. With the money obtained he bought into another mine, and ?old his interest a few weeks since for $175,000, the judge v 'ho eonunitted bim to jail being one of the parchas m. Dorine the past year there were 501 fires in the United States, each involving a IOSB of over $20. .000. Total loss by these fires $66,610,000 against j $43,139,000 for the previous year, when there were I ..only854of such fires. There were eighty-five r lilroad aooidenta in the United States in the year just ended, causing the loss of 115 lives, and the wounding of 607 persons. For the ; previous year there wero 183 accidents, 335 persons killed, and 1427 wounded. The financial condition of Kentucky, as it is re? ported by the papers of that State, is certainly vt ny encouraging. The debt is said to be between $??,000,000 and $6,000,000. The State treasury now . holds between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000. The Quartermaster-General has just been notified that $700,000 have been made subjeot to hi s draft by the proper national authorities, and between $1,000,000 sud $2,0?0,000 additional ls expected within a few weeks. The assets are therefore enough to liqui? dit? all of the liabilities, and to enable the State to bsgin the new year free from debt Tho population of New York City, which in 1800 wi* 60,000, ?B now about a million. The valuation of property, real and personal, has risen from ?25,000,000 in 1805, to $736,088,058; while the real raine is about $1,000,000,000, or a thirtieth part of the property of Great Britain. The banking capi? tal of the eily is over $900,000,000, and the trans? actions at the clearing house for the year ending October 1st were $2,900,000,000. Ito registered and enroUed shipping 1865 amounted to 123,264 tons; and in 1865 there wore 12,634 arrivals of vessels, 2,018 of whioh were steamers. The exports that yoar were $208,850,250, and the imports $224, 742,419. A large amount of money is said to have been lost and won on the yacht race between 2.ew York ?nd England. The New York Times says : "We heard yesterday of one well-known operator (in every thing yet discovered) who had been fairly bantered into bets amounting in the aggregate to 45,000, every one of which^he wins with the possi? ble exception of one of $10,000, that the trip would be made by Borne one yacht inside ot fourteen days-this he may possibly lose by fifteen min?tes. Se had a bet of $5000 that the Vesta would, but on Thursday last a friend who desired to 'hedge' a little, begged, as a special favor, that he would transfer it to him, and with his usual good nature {and his usual good luck) he consented." The New Orleans Picayune learns, from a gen? tleman who left Cordova on the 6th inst., that only General PEIOE, oi Missouri, and Governor HARRIS, of Tennessee, are now left there. They have erected a house, but it is scarcely comfortable, and their families reside in the city. Gov. HAB?IS is about sending his family, six in number, to Ten? nessee, to have hie children educated. Gen. SHEL? BI is at Vera Cruz, engaged in the colonization of Tuxpan. Gen. STEVENS is still Superintendent of the Vera Cruz Railroad, but the travel and busi? ness on it are small. All the Confederates in Mexico are in excellent health, but their prospects were poor. Mr. MALCOLM, of Kentucky, returned home by the last steamer. The Baltimore Sun of the lat furnishes the fol? lowing statistics: "The trade between Baltitnoro and the Southern 8tates dining the past year, bv water, has been of a gratifying character. The receipts of cotton during tho year ending yester? day were 28,683 balea, of which 9027 bolos carno from Norfolk, 9498 from Savannah, 4963 from Charleston, 2443 from Wilmington and other North Carolina ports, (.779 from Apalachicola, 924 from Now Orleans, 464 from Richmond, 383 from Mobile, and 207 from Galveston. Of tobacco the receipts were 31,701 packages, 2949 hogsheads, 506 box- s, and 263 cases, principally from Richmond, Peters? burg, and other Virginia ports. The reosipts of wool during tho year were 2834 bags, whilst the amount of flaxseed brought ?to market from tho South foots up 3364 barrels. The receipts of naval stores from North Carolina were 28,622 bar? rels rosin, 5265 barrels tar, 2435 barrels turpentine, and 2713 barrels pitch. Besides tho above, there have been very heavy receipts of lumber, shingles, pld iron, and hundreds of other small articles."

FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 4, 1807. UNIVERS AL SUFFRAOR ?The Hon. GABRET DAVIS, United States Senator for Kentucky, on tho 12th of December last made a speech in thc Senate on tho Bill then ronding, to regulate the elective franchise in the District of Colombia. The Louisville (fourier of the 29th contains his remarks in extenso, covering four closely printed columns of that large paper. Mr. DAVIS has not heretofore boon considered one of tho ohampions of the South, and we hope, therofore, we shall not be accneod of "pandering to the sec? tional prejudices of our readers," when we proposo to present them with tho gist of this splendid ora? torical effort. Mr. DAVIS deserves considerable credit for placing his protest on record at a time like this for courageously defining his position, even in tho face of tho Radical journals, which, he must have known beforehand, would certainly deride him in their usual supercilious manner, for unearthing what they are pleasod to denominate "effete issues." Derision is not argument, nor philippic logic, even though it has been said, and very Ixathfully, "Who can refute a sneer ?" We shall pass by all the pretty thing? Mr. DAVIS lays in praiso of woman, and biB deprecation of leeing her occupy a false position-elicited by the ?emarks of tho Senator from Pennsylvania, who tad offered, as an amendment to the BRI, that the ight of suffrage be also conferred upon the women ?f the District. Both the proposition and Mr. )AYIS' roply hoing manifest buncombe, we pass on o the real subject matter in band, the proposition, s ho state a it, that a nation of a superior race honld allow an inferior race, resident in large umbers among them, to take part in their govern? ment, in shaping and controlling their destinies, bis proposition, he says, "is refuted by its mere tatement;" and as it is well in all discussions that 1?re should bo a distinct understanding between ie disputants as to the precise signification of the ?rms to be used in the argument, Mr. DAVIS pro? jects to give bis "d?finition:" The race of people referred to by tho term "ne? ro" is well understood, not only by men of science id travellers, but persons of general reading on ie t^pes of mankind. That term, comprehends a ack skin, but not as an exclusive distinction ; also, td especially woolly bair, a peculiar formation of o cranium, face, pelvis, shins and i>et. which are > distinctly enumerated by ethnologists and na ralists. abd which they all agree are the natural arks or au inferior race. The first recovdod his ry of the negro found bim in Africa, c-Tupy g more than one-half of that large continent, and Dstly within thc torrid zone. The whole pop uk? in of Africa approximates one hundred mthions, which about sixty arc of the negro race. He then proceeds to state that, for four thousand irs, the negro bas been the same unchanging eoimen of man in his phy sioal, intellectual and ira! features and proportions. There has been a same destitution of arts, letters [ and civil poli ; tho same absence of aU civilization, and the ne engulfment in tho deepest ignorance and rageism,-the tribes and natives making inter nable and most cruel wars, and either selling o slavery or putting to death all their captives, [lie negro was made lower and weaker than the 1er races; he is subordinate to them, and has en been their slave, but never their master; all i occasional, meagre, and restricted civilization ich he has ever poe a oes ed waa imparted to him by m, and he could retain it only by their contin 1 contact and help; and but foi- their superior olties and endowments the whole world.of man d would now be in primeval and hopeless ignor c and barbarism, [r. DAVIS thon comes to the history of -slavery I the slave trade in this and other countries, 1 next to tho history of emancipation. This ?menced, about eighty years ago, in St. Domin Then followed the same kind of emancipa i, by.national authority, in the West India nds of England, France, and other European rers, and lastly in the United States. That incipati on has been a failure, in so far, at least, elates to the proposed intellectual or moral ad comont of the black man, is undeniable. His irioration from the time be was a slave in all hem is palpable; but in St. Domingo it has a much the greater, because tho conserving tonoe of the white man was not there to chock reform it. ie honorable Senator from Kentucky then ra? ked that, in the ardor of bis youth, untaught jasons of experience, be also entertained the aleut dream of a possible civilization of the ne race, and enthusiastically aided the ooloniza ?ocietios to transfer negroes from this country s native home in Africa, tnt," he continues, "from all that I have since ted of the negro, and have read of the efiorts und tho English colony at Sierra Leone and American colony at Monrovia and the adjacent try, and from all the information afforded by rionds of tboso colonies, I am satisfied, in my mind, that negro civilization can never exist ly other condition and connection than his w^uvoment to the whito man. I am satisfied that if the West India colonies of England, of Spain, of France, where emancipation has become oon- i summate, and the colony of Monrovia and the ? British colony of Sierra Leone, were abandoned by the white man, and none of hie superior intellect, ! ? energy and conserving influence were continued ! there, those colonies, now Bomowhat civilized, j would, in a fow yoars, fall into as hopeless and as ignorant a barbarism as has hovered over Africa from the beginning of recorded history." That the two races are unequal would scarcely seem to require moro than tho more statement of the fact. The men of science of every school may be considered unanimous in their opinion on this point. PRICHARD is tho only exception. He as? sumed the opposite theory when a college hoy of seventeen years, in writing a thesis, and thiB error, imbibed by bun in his youth, he devoted the labors of a long lifo and a great intellect to sustain. Mr. DAVIS then goes on to say that he behoves ours to bo a white man's government ; made by him for himself, without the aid or any reference to the negro, Indian, or any other race of man. The preliminary clauBO in the Declaration of Lado pecdence, the great Shibboleth of abolition and radicalism, he says, is a mere abstract statement of principles and sentiments, and never had any force or obligation of law. It liberated no slave, nogro or Indian,(for there were then both) ; it gave no right of suffrago or any other right to any negro or Indian, freo or slave, and it left them precisely as though it bad never boon made. These are historical facts-undeniable. "Our na? tional family very properly comprehends aR of tho nationalities of Europe who may come here ; but I assert that negroes, Indians, Mongolians, Chinese and Tartars, ought not and cannot safely bo ad? mitted to the powers and privileges of citizenship." The spoaker next adverted to tho innate anti? pathy of different races, hostile in proportion to the degrco of their difference. Amalgamation, he says, is the only possible mode of obliterating this aversion, and this, in the United States, is simply and utterly impossible. Superior and inforior races have mingled, it is true, but then they bad hold these relative positions from aooidents of fortune, and not from any intrinBio ethnological difference The helot and his Spartan master, tho Saxon carl and tho Mormon knight, wero all of tho same Cau? casian raco. [Mr DAVIS says they were all of the Stiemilic race. For a United States Senator, wo confess Mr. DAVIS makes a very fair show of loam? ing, but we incline to think that hero his ethnolo? gy is wrong. Li the distribution of tho races, as descended from the sons of NOAH, tho pure Cau? casian, both "Greek and barbarian," is usually de? rived from JAFHET, and not from SHEM.] Mr. DAVIS then points to Mexico and the South American Eopublics, where we see the baneful ef? fects of practical miscegenation of the white with the negro and the Badi?n. The argumentum ad hominem is put in tho fol? lowing interrogatory : If the Radicals in Congress and out of Congress knew with the certainty of truth that everv vote which they -will enfranchise by conferring tho* right of suffrago on the negro would bo cast against that party, in favor of their late Southern masters, in favor of Democracy, in hostility to the schemes of ambition and spoils which uro now animating the heart and mind of the great Radical organization, who doubts that this partv and evcrv one of them would declare for withholding suffrage from the negro? And the next paragraph, we supposo, must he styled the argumentum ad feminam: "who bolieves in the vaunted radical position uf thc equality of racoa, that the negro niUBt bo tho equal of the whito man boforo tbe hw, that ho musl bavo every legal right, every political ami social privilcgo, ovorything to olevato h'm condition and destiny to that of tho whito man, politically, civilly, and so? cially? "Since tho close of tho last sosa ion of Congress somo of tho Radica'e in each House have changed their rolations; they havo taken to themselves wives; but which ono of them has selected a sable daughter of Africa to occupy that relation? Who of thom and of their familios now associate with tho black as thor do with the whito race ? Where, Sonators, aro your negro sons-in-law, daughters in-law, negro brothors-in-law|? Whero are your connections in all the tender rolations of tho do? mestic and family circle of tho negro race?" How cou'.d tho honorable Senator from Ken? tucky be 60 rude as actually to attempt to ram thc negro down tho Radical throat hythe force of vulgar logic ? After Bhowing at considerable length that the solo motivo of the Radical party in urging negro suffrage, is a craven fear of the loss of power, he concludes thus: Tho people of tho South made war in a wrong cause. They turned their backs upon peaco ana prosperity and liberty to flgbt for separate politi? cal power, and their heroism waa never surpassed. Now, the war is made upon thom to deprive them of their right of sclf-governmont, of their fields, of tboir homes, family altars, of their religious temples. Thoy, and tboir wives, and their chil? dren, and their country, and everything compre? hended by that term, all for whicli man ought to live, and "for tho preservation of which he ?hould dare to die, the South is summoned to surrender to tho absolute control, by tho instrum' i .ulity of her own ncgroos, of her old and inexorable ene? mies. And she lias the great humiliation of hav? ing upon her this deep and degraded enslavoment; yea, worse, she if chored the great insult of being asked to accept it. Now is coming tho tembl? timo in which the peoplo of thc South will be required to exorcise then* truest horoism. They must resist this great, this most foul, cruel and dishonoring enslavement, but peacefully and by cvory peaceful means which thev can command. They will stand in need of all thoir patience, their courage, their fortitude, their power of ondurance. To every unjust and degrad? ing demand they must answer with a will fixed as destiny, no I By their peaceful and quiot and he? roic suffering they must win oven tho respect of their enemies and tho admiration and sympathies of the world. It will bc a dreadful and may bo a long trial, but how much moro bearable than tho Bhamo and galling chains of a voluntary slavery; and such a slavery to such mastors 1 If it bo vol? untary, thoy well dosorvo it; if it be involuntary and forced upon them, tho justice of God and man will come to their deliverance. Men of tho South, exhaust overy peaceful moans of redress, and when your oppressions become unendurable, and it is demonstrated that there is no other hope, then striko for your libortv, and strike RB did your fathers in 1776,*and as did tho Hollanders aDd Zea? landers, led by William the Silent, to break their chains, forged by tho tyrants of Spain. ~ WANTS", ~ WANTED, A WHITE GIRI?

ROBSON, Na 03 Bast Bay. ANALYSIS OF SWAN ISLAND GUANO. [COPY.] OHABUSTOX, December 38th, 1866. Afr. Robson, Dear Sir: The sample taken by myself last evening, of the Swan Island Guano, has the following constituents: Phosphate of Lime..4L00 Organic (Vegetable) Matter. AM Carbonato of Limo. L50 Soluble Salts, chiefly Chlorides of Calcium, Sodium. Potassium and Magnesium, with Sulphates of the suns bases, all taken together, about % per cont. ff). Matter, insoluble in adds, mostly Silica, and allic* with Por-Oxide of Iron.lSJfi Water (expelled at 312 deg).8?80 MOM The chemical and mechanical conditions of this Guano flt it admirably for the purposes of tbs planter, particu? larly for cotton and corn crops. The Phosphate of Lima is almost as finely divided as when oemtag tram dis? solved bones or decayed cotton seed. Tbs whole of it will therefore be likely to be appropriated by pU?*?? (ha first year, provided lt is not applied In too large propor? tions. Tho proportion of water is about 8 per ?nt above what might have been expected, but at the price demanded lt is still one of the cheapest fertilizers I nave ever known offered in this market Mixed with from 6 to 10 per cent, best Peruvian Guano, I abarala anticipate the most satisfactory returns.
