The Crisis.
Messrs. Editors.-As a Southern man, identified
with the South in the misfortunes of the past, as
well as in the oit tor experience of the present, I
cannot look with indifference upon the apathy
A- which seems to pervade the white portion of our
fellow-citizons. Where is that spirit and manhood
which has so often camed us through the fiery
ordeal of the past ? Shall we continue to sit down
and abjectly submit to be made the foot ball of
every demagogue who is thrown as a fire brand in
OTU* midst? They are now doing all they con to
inflame thu passions and sow the seed of discord
in the minds of those to whom inter<?L as well as
past associations should hindus hi ties of the
strongest ! Wardship. If this is tho course we La?
in to nd to pnrsuo, then indeed we merit and should
receive th? scorn and contempt of the civilized
world. WI tat can we do I Why let ns make the
best of the condition in which we find ourselves.
By exerting ourselves to counteract the influences
which designing and bad men are seeking to exer?
cise for oui- injury and their political aggrandize?
ment, while we are expected to strictly ob?
serve the laws which have been made for
our government.. Wc cannot be expected to sacri?
fice all of our manhood and honor by passively
submitting to. the teaching of those who, not
having thtj- fear of God in their hearts, and with
evil intent, seok to array one portion of our popu?
lation against the other. L2t us, by our teachings
and examples, give the lie to the idle vagaries with
which designing men seek to deceive and beguile
the ignorant masses, whom they wish to UBO as
tools.
The duty of the hour demands of us to do all
we can to avert the dangers which threaten us.
It seems to me some of our influential citizens
should call a meeting to seriously deliberate upon
our condition and the bes? means to be employed
in culti vating that frc terna! feeling with our color?
ed citizens, wbi.?b is so essential to the interest
and happiness of both. In conclusion; I earnestly
appeal to my fellow-citizons to awaken from their
lethargy-ba np and doing, and al' may yet bo
well. M.
IMPEACHMENT WITNESSES.-Owing to the fact
that the preser.ee of tho members of the Judiciary
Committo? was required-in tho House daring the
passage of the Registration Bill, no impeachment
witnesses were examined to-day. Gen. Fullerton,
whose preliminary examination on Saturday last
has already been mentioned, will bo called again
to-morrow. The books of record of the transfer of
property by the Freedmen's Bureau in Louisiana,
while he was in charge, have been procured, and
he will be required to explain tho reasou for bis
wholesalo restoration of abandoned and confiscat?
ed lands to their rebel owners, and the connection
of thxTTr^jdent therewith. Gen. Rufus Saxton,
who for a longtime had charge of the Bureau in
Charleston, and of the Sea Islands of South Caro?
lina and Georgia, hi'a been subpeeaned, and will
arrive hore to-morrow. lt is evident that ?bb im?
peachers aro tryiug to make a strorg poire against
the President, based on his actku in feturniLg
propertv to tho Southern people, aiid particularly
in his alleged failure to executo the confis?atic-n
awe.- Washington Corr. 2V. T. Times.

PAMS, March 1.-WASHINGTON'S, Birthday
celebrated in this city by a grand bali given t
Grand He tel by Gen. Dix, the now United S
Minister. I have heard the number present
mated at from 300 to 800. Am ont? them I ui

Gen. Dubois, the colored Minister from Hayti

On the evening of the 27th the last grand b;
the season took place at tho Tuilories; qui
numbeP?f our countrymen had the honor o
invitation: among them the Rov. J. S. C. ABI
who is understood to bo here for the express

desires to glorify the third as he has done

no objections to being glorified. Mr. ABBC

But the imperial words were few and oraci
and the anxious publishers are in doubt as to
precieo meauingBof tho decree. The Courte
State, however, it is understood, will submit a
on this subject to the Corps L?gislatif, which
settle this difficulty.
Although it fails far short of tho liberty of
press enjoyed in England or America, the oatl
of this law, as far as they have been reported,
here hailed as a great advance and gaiu on
side of liberty. Tho previous authorization h
toforo required for the establishment of a pape
to be done away with; but cardion money is U
continued as now, viz: $50,000 francs; and thci
also to be a reduction of stamps. All chat
against the press aro to be referred to tho con

Imprisonment for offences of the press is aboli sb
The great sensation here just now is tho debi
day before yesterday in the Chambers, on the f
"interpellation." M. JULES FAVEE, the loader of
opposition, made one of his most brilliant and i
ing speeches, in which he did not-spare the G
eminent. The interpellation was to know why
debate on the address had been abolished. Ju
FAVBE was, of course, much admired by his pa
sans, called to order by M. le President, and int
rupted occasionally by occupants of the Gove
ment benches with cries of " trea?onable." 1
presB yesterday morning, of course, varied mi
in its remarks on this discussion, according to
complexion of its party. Thc LpnslUulionel sa
"M. JUXEB FAVEE, in his ingratitude and injusl
towards the reforms of tho 19th of January, 1
pretended that they were a letrograde ?tep, t
that the suppression of the address was a pr
that the discussion and control of the Chamh
were feared." This idea, it avers, is prepostero
Tho Deb?is B&JB : "It seems that the right
addressing an interpellation to the Government
a special and well defined subject expires at I
precise limits of the terms in which the quest:
is put. If this were the caso tho new privilej
already embarrassed by so many obstacles bef<
it can be used at all, and so narrowly circumscrifc
when exercised, wou d be well nigh impractical
or denuded of all efiicacy,"
Tho Pairie thinks to deal the opposition aha
blow in the following language :
Fortunately M. Jules Favre was enableel to spo
and give utterance to all his thoughts. He at any ra
will not complain of the reticences which the rig
of interpellation, strictly interpreted, may impoi
He gave full earea* to that incisive ?loquen
which charms evon those whom it wounds, and
lotst g. ves us, in contrast to the sallies of 1
Picard, the satisfaction of hearing ideas expresBi
with originality. What, for example, can bo mo
so than tho little appeal to insurrection by mc-u
of the tribune which termIHUTCB M. Jules Favre
speech ? Wo in France were already acquaint*
wit) ill the forms of insurrection. M. Jules Favi
proposos that which consists in occupying tl
tribune to speak de omnibus rebus el quibusda
eu i ts, absolutely as if tho address wei o under di
cussion. "Let us speak,' says the honorable men
ber, just as one might s.vy "Let ns revolt." Li
us speak without ceasing, and the gentlemen ho.
tile to tho address will bc nicely taken in. The
wanted to avoid useless harangue ; wp will pu
plenty of them. They wanted to have clear, preen
and conclusivo discussions; ws will bring on oil
era, idle, vague and purposeless." Is not all thi
sufficiently original ?
La France says: M. JULES FAVRE, in au in
passioned improvisation, gave its most radical coi
elusion to tho interpellation. His speoch was on]
a bitter indictment against the presont and th
past of the empire. It was ho who uttered thc la;
word of the opposition, and that was a menact
We behove we are expressing the sentiments of a
really political minds in deploring that this disc J t
sion, already so regrettable from tho course whic
it has taken, should-have terminated with such
war cry. Happily words so imprudent will bo will
out coho, both in the country and in tho Chambei
GalignanCs Messenger this morning thus speak
of tho second day's discussion :
The second and last day's discussion in th
legislativo body on the interpellations relative t
the suppression of the address is just as fully re
marked on by tho Paris press as was the first, an
again each journal maltes its observations fror
the point of view of its own political position, AU
however, agree in noticing tho check given to Al
Emile Olli vi er, who could with difficulty obtain t
hearing, the majority treating him with indiller
once as a new recruit and tho oppo it iou H how; m
bim ho st iii ty for so openly and unmistakably Ic a vi m
choir ranks. So much had been said lately of the
honorable deputy'? position that many believer
he had some important declaration to make. Bu
in place of that result he only uttered some iusig
nificant sentences to express his happiness u
.voting with the majority on the order of tho day ant
in conformity with the wishes of tho Government
M. BOUSES, the chief orator on the ministeria
side, appears to haye achieved as great au oratori?
cal triumph as M. JULES FAVEE himself. Th<
papers this morning are all in ecstasy. Tho Pali u
says: . " . .
The Minister of State assuredly does not cxpoct
from public opinion a fresh expression of tho ad
miration ao many times caused by his great ora*
to ri cal talent. What he sought for in the Chambei
was the real accent of that public opinion whicl
for a month past had been murmuring against the
disfiguring of his ideas and aspirations. Has h(
found what he sought? YOB, and therein lies thc
eulogivm which is to-day everywhere heard. M,
Bonner spoke just as tho country speaks; he pro?
tested as the country protests; ho defended the con?
victions which the country defends, and in placing
the legislator of 1852-tho Bovereign whoso every ef?
fort is an extension of our liberties and a sure
guarantee of our prosperity-above tho attacks ol
a minority now for ever isolated, lie made hinisel!
the faithful e ho of thc national sentiment.
The question was decided against tho opposi?
tion, 241 voting against and only 25 in favor. It ie
said that M. FAVEE on this occasion was deserted
by some of bis adherents, for the opposition counts
moro than twenty-five members of tho "Corps."
It is doubtless, however, because of this small
opposition voto, that the Government appears tc
connive at their bold talk.
As an ovidenco of the universal panic, among
people and princes, mon- especially among tho la t?
ter, now prevailing, notwithstanding tho repeat el
assurances from all sides that peace should bc pre?
served, tho papers here quote from tho Gazelle dc
Moscoio, that Sweden, with scarcely moro than
5,000,000 of inhabitants, now thinks it necessary to
have a disposable military for:e of 500,C00inon.
This looks like decimating a State.
Interesting will be tho information that the
Princess CAROLINE, of Reuss, will, on thc 28th in-t,
abdicate in favor of her son, HENRX XXII., ar.d
retire to a convent.
Have you hoare) of the new Paris Guido Book,

finest productions ol" tho kind tho wor d has ever

HUGO is writing t.ic preface.
A new RACHEL it appears has boon discovered.
A Mademoiselle CORNELLS, young, nucleated,
but good looking, in one of the cafes ' ..nown as
tho Eldorado.) evcrj- evening enchants a number
of auditors with the charm of her diction. She
renders tho works of CORNEILLE and RACINE with
brilliant- talent and unbounded success. Her vi?
brating voice, now soft and tender, and now terri?
ble, moves, captivates and charms. She will not
long bo permitted to remain at the cafe. Her El?

A good stol y ia going the rop-nel of tho r apers
here. Of course I cannot vouch for its ?ruth. In
his will, it is said, M. COUSIN, desiring to leave a
memorial of his regard to his friends and col?
leagues, MM. MICKET, ar.J ST, HILAIRE, says : "Je
declare l?guer a chacun deux (or d'eux) r?nl mille
franc*;1' which means, "1 leave to each 200,0(10
francs ;" or elso, if the apostrophe in d'eux .s used,
it means, "I leave to each of thom 100,100 fran-S."
Mow the question is about tho existence of thc apos?
trophe. Had ever so . mall a jot or tittle so large
significance ? I soe it contended that chacun d'eux
must bo what the great philosopher intended, l?o
was too goo i a writer lo bc guilty of such a bald,
indefensible expression as the absence of the apos?
trophe would indicate. The French love a quibble,
and go into ecstasy at a bon mol. I think it more
than likely the whole story is manufactured for the
sake of "getting off a good thing."

PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS ON TUES?
DAY.
SENATE.-The House joint resolution authorizing
the Secretary of War to transfer to the managers
of the Ohio asylnm,for disabled soldier.') and sailors,
the government property at Camp Chase was taken
up and passed. The Bill prohibiting any further
payment to the owners of slaves drafted into tho
United States servico was taken np, and after dis?
cussion, laid ovor. The Committee on Military
Affairs reported favorably on the House Bill fer
thc payment of awards for the capture of Mr.
Davia. A resolution was offered by Mr. Conness
providing for tho appointment of a committee of
three Senators to inquire into the publication in
newspapers of tho proceedings of the Senate in ex?
ecutive session. At tho suggestion of Mr. Conk
ling, tho resolution was laid over.
A Committee of Cjnferenco was appointed on
tho supplementary Military Bill. A Bill was passed
authorizing tho Secretary of War to issuo one snit
of clothing for each invalid soldier in any regular
Soldier's Home in the United States. Mr. John?
son, of Maryland, rose, and stated that his col?
league, Mr. P. F. Thomas, Senator elect from that
State, had requested him to ask that his creden?
tials should be referred to the Judiciary Commit?
tee, as he courted tho fullest investigation into all
his public acts. The reference was accordingly
made. A Bill was introduced declaring that nb
person shall be eligible to either House of Con?
gress who has ever borne arms again't the United
States, or aided, in any manner, any hostile Gov?
ernment. It was referred to tho Committee on
the Judiciary. The Committee of Conference on
the Supplementary Military Bid made a report,
which was concurred in by the Senate. An Execu?
tive session was hold, after which the Senate
adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.-A Bill was passed
to romedy the defect in the enrollment of tho Bill
relative to import duties on woollens from which
the words ''long woollens" were inadvertently
omitted. A joint resolution was passed prohibit?
ing the further issue of Agricultural COIIO?TO scrip
to any Southern State, except the State of Tennes?
see, until such States are fully restored to all thoir
constitutional rights as States in the Union by
Congress. A Bill was also passed exempting lad?
ders made of wood from the internal revenue tax.
The Supplementary Militan- Reconstruction Bill,
as amended by thc Senate, was -taken up, and the
House refused to recede from its amendments
thereto, and ordered a committee of conference on
the disagreeing votes.
A joint resolution was passed extending tho pro?
visions of the Bill in relation to the publication of
the laws to the States not mentioneu in said Bill,
and to the Territories, and providing for the pub?
lication in three papers in Louisiana. Mr. Ste?
vens then callenup his B?1 for the confiscation of
property in the Southern States. It will bo found
in iud in tho proceedings elsewhere. Tho Bill
confiscates all tho public lands belonging to tho
ten seceding States, and all the lands and other
Property forfeited by the Act of Congress of July
7, 1862, all of which is to be seized, condemned
and sold.
? Ont of the proceeds each adult malo freed slave
ig to receive 40 acres, and each one who is head of
a family 40 more. Ont of the balance a sum of
fifty dollars for each household "is to bo appropri?
ated to the erection of buildings for the use of tho
late slaves. $200,000,GOO is to be invested in United
States six per cent, bonds and the m tore et added to
tho pensions of Union soldiers, and $300,000,000 is
to be appropriated to pay damages done lo loyal
citizons by the civil or military government of tho
Confederacy. Tho remaining sections of the bill
prescribe the methods and machinery by which it
is to be carried into effect.
Mr. Stevens proceeded to make a speech upon
the subject, but had uttered only a lbw sentences
when his strength failed, and he was compelled to
ask Mr. McPherson, the Clerk, to continue tb o
reading of it. Tho whole Bubject was then post?
poned until December next. The House then
went into Committee of the Whole and took np the
Bill appropriating one million of dollars ro the
relief of the South. After a long discussion the
Committee roso without toking any action on the
Bill.
Tho Conference Committee on tho Supplementa?
ry Military Reconstruction Bill made a roport,
which was"concurred in, after a short discussion.
The House recedes from its disagreement to the
Renate amendment, but inserts an additional
amendment prv.vid.ng that Congress shall be sat?
isfied that there was no interference with voters at
tho election, and that the Constitution adopted
meets tho approval of thc majority of the poopie
in the several States. The House thon adjourned.
Pennsylvania*? Reply to North Carolina.
At tho recent session of tho North Carolina
Legislature a scries ol? resolutions were adopted
inviting all tho States-North, So th, East and
West-to meet in national convention for the pur?
pose of '-proposing, in exact conformity with the
Constitution of tho United States, Mich amend?
ments to tho Constitnt1oji_.th.a t JJt?.mante gill-bo
such mutual concessions as will lead to a restora?
tion of our formor happy relations,"
Governor G cory, of Pennsylvania, in a recent
massage lo tho Legislature of that Stato, acknowl?
edges tho receipt of theso resolutions, and
suys that under ordinary circumstances he
would be satisfied simply to submit tho com?
munication without commont, but, Kays he, when
"wo reflect that tho people of North Carolina
inviting this assembly aro not in full commu?
nion with tho loyal States ; that they have
boen for ' many years in tho habit of looking
with great indifference upon the national interosts,
and of tolerating disloyalty; tha-. throughout the
thrilling and sanguinary war of the robeson thoy
used their utmost efforts to destroy the Consti?
tution and tho Union, and to establish a hostile
Government of their own; that they recently re?
fused to ratify tho mild and wholesome amendments
to the Constitution; that Congress,by the passage
of the Reconstruction Act, has made a salutary
provision for their future military government,
and that for tho other refractory districts lately
engaged in rebellion, is not tho presumption with
which these unrepentant rebels and subjugated
traitors now ask for mutual concessions surprising?
Tho people of Pennsylvania have always been lcyal
to tho government, fruo to the constitution and
taws of tho nation, and'have stood in the foremost
ranks of the defenders of tho Union, Tfcey have
no concessions to make, certainly nono to those,
who have waged a troublesomo war, and who have
been conquered at tho pomt of tho bayonot. Tho
doctrino is certainly abhorrent that delea' ed trea?
son should ask the loyal men of this country to
meet them upon equal terms in Convention to
amend the Constitution they ropndiated and at?
tempted to dostroy. Tho guilty failure of those
men has assigned them to a far different task
submission to the terms of the conquerers and
obedience to that law which we all obey.
While Pennsylvania has no concessions to mako,
her people, desiring a speedy, just and. proper re?
adjustment of all the States in the *. nion, earnest?
ly beseech the citizons of North Carolina, and of all
tho Southern States, to return without delay to
tho benign irfluohces of the government, while
yet tho terms of such a return aro ecfey, ?nd not to
wait for moro severo conditions, and * perhaps for
moro serious punishment.
THE PRESIDENT'S VIEWS OF THE MILITARY. BILL.
The Washington correspondent of the Ilerala of
Tuesday, says :
In an interview with President Johnson last
Sa turday, the subject of reconstructing tho South?
ern States under tho mw military governor bill
came up, and his opinion berg asked on tho suo
jeet, he shook his head gravely and remarked that
thc holding ot elections under military control
was in conflict with the spirit of republican insti?
tutions, 'Thon rising and retiring to an ad orning
room he returned with a book in his hand and read
tho following extract from an address of Daniel
Webster to the citizens of Massachusetts, on tho
occasion of the celebration of the completion of
the Bunker Hill Monument, on tho 17th of Juno,
1843.
They aro yet on their trial, and I hope for a fa?
vorable result ; but truth-sacred truth-and fidel?
ity to tho causo of civil libertv compel mo to say
that hitherto thoy have discovered quite too much
of thc spirit of that monarchy from wliich they
separated themselves. Quito too frequent resort
is made lo military force, and quito too much of
the substance of the people is consumed in main?
taining armies, not for dcl'enco against foreign ag?
gression, but for enforcing obedience to domestic
authority. Standing armies are tho oppressive in?
struments for governing the peoplJ in thc hands
of hereditary and arbitrary menarche. A military
republic, a government mondo l on mock elections
and supported only by thc sword is a movement in?
deed, but a retrogrado f.nd disastrous movement,
from the regular and old-fashioned monarchial sys?
tem. If mun would enjoy the blessings of repub?
lican government, they must govern themselves
by reason, by mutual counsel and consultation, by
a sense and feeling of general interest, and by tho
acquieecene of tho minority jn tho will of tho
majority properly oxprcsscd, and above all, thc
military must bc kept, according to tho language
of our bill of rights, in strict subordination to the
civil authority. Wherever this lesson ia not both
learned and practiced, there can bo no political
freedom, A b'snrd, preposterous is it, a scoff and a
satire on free forms of govornmsnt to be prescrib?
ed by military leaders, and tho right of sufljago lo
be exercised at the point of the sword."
H?3 (tho Pr-sideut's) own feelings, he said,
agreed with Mr. Webster on the subject.

SIR. STEVENS' CONFISCATION BILL.
The following is the Bill for confiscating South?
ern property, which THAD. STEVENS has introduced
in Congress, and which has been postponed until
j next December :
Whereas, It is due to justice and as an example
to future time, that some prompt punishment
should be inflicted on the people who constituted
the "Confederate States of America," both because
they declared an unjust war against tho United
States, for the purpose of destroying republican
liberty and permanently establishing slavery, as
well as for the cruel and barbarous manner in
which they conducted said war, in violation of all
laws of civilized warfare ; and also to compci
them to make some compensation for the damage
and expenditures caused by the said war. There?
fore,
Be it enacted, &e., That all public lands belong?
ing to the ten States that formed the government
of the so-called Confederate States of America
shall be forfeited by tho said States, and becomo
forthwith vested in tho United States.
SEC. 2. And bo it further enacted, That the
President shall forthwith cause tho seizure of such
property, belonging to tho belligerent enemv, as is

ty, and proceed to condemnation with that already

three persons each, ono of whom shall bo an officor
of the army and two shall be civilians, neither of
whom shall bo a citizen of the State tor which he
shall he appointed, and the said Commission shall
adjudicate and condemn tho property aforesaid
under such forms and proceedings .as shall be pre?

United States.
SEC. 4. And be it further enacted, That out of
the lands thus soized and confiscated, tho slaves
who have been liberated by tho operations of tho

male, and to each person who ia head of a family
forty acres, to be held in feo simple, but to bo ina?
lienable for the next ten years after they become
seized thereof. Por the purpose of distributing
and allotting the said land, the Secretary of War
shall appoint as many Commissions in each Stato
as he shall doom necessary, to con ist of three
members each, two of whom, at loast. shall not bc
citizens of the State for which they are appointed.
Each of said Commissioners shall receive a salary
of $3000 annually, and all necessary expenses.
Each Commission shall be allowed one clerk, whose
salary shall be $2000 per annum. The title to the
homestead aforesaid shall bo vested for tho nso of
the liberated persons aforesaid, in. trustees, who
shall bo appointed by the Secretary of War, and
shall receive such salary as he shall direct, not ex?
ceeding $8000 per annum. At the end of ton years
the absolute title to. tho said homestead shall bo
conveyed to the said owners, or to the heirs of
such as aro then dead.
SEC. 5. And bo it further enacted. That out of
tho balance of the property thus soized and con?
fiscated there shall bo raised, in the manner here?
inafter provided, a sum equal to $50 for each home?
stead, to be applied by the trastees, hereinbefore
mentioned, toward the erection of buildings on tho
said homesteads l'or tho ase of tho said slaves, and
a further sum of $500,000.000 which Bhall bo appro?
priated as follows, viz: $200,000,000 shall be invest?
ed in United States six per centum securities, tho
interest of which Bhall bo semi-annually added io

provisions, pay into the Treasury of tho United
States the sum assessed on thoir estates respec?
tively, all of theil* estates and lands not actually

States ; provided that no arable land shall be sold
in largor tracts than five hundred acres ; and pro?
vided, farther, that no longer credit shall bo given
than three years.
ARREST OE HON. JOHN MORRISSEY, M. C.-The
Irish Times of the 1st inst, gives its readers the
following piece of information :
Last night at tho Limerick Junction, Assistant
Inspector General Brownrigg, of the constabulary,
arrested, on the arrivai of the mail train from
Cork, John Morrissey, the celebrated prize fighter
and member of the United Stator Congross, on a
charge of Fenianistn, just as he had alighted from
a first-class carriage. Ho had arrived at Cork by
tho Cunard nteamer Australasian, and was pro?
ceeding lo Tipperary town. Ho is known as the
man who had tho first great fight in Canada, near
the American frontier, a bouc eight years ago, with
John C. Becnan, whom Morrissey defeated after a
dosperato fight of twenty-three rounds, which
occupied nearly three hours. Ho has since becomo
a gm palace proprietor and ' logislator, and joined
tho Fenian Brotherhood at its commonccmcnr,
having subscribed largely to its funds. Morrissey
when arrested fainted, and had to bo taken to the
gontlemou's waiting room, whore restoratives had
to bo applied, after which ho was taken to Dublin.
In consequence of Ilia arrest, a largo force of in?
fantry waa sent down carly this morning to the
Junction, where the mon aro encamped, for the
protection of that place.
When it is remembered that Mr. MORRISSEY is
occupying his scat in Congress, the above will be
appreciated,
REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT IN COBA_We aro re?
liably informed that thoro is a deon under cuiront
of politics in the Islaod of Cuba, which is designed
soon to develop into a movement of serious conse?
quences. It has its promptings in tho recent
attempt at poliiionl revolution in tho mother
30U"try, tho Spanish Peninsula, and it has f r its
special*object the return of Gen. Dulce to tho Cap?
tain General's pala'co at the Havana. We aro as?
sured that not only the politicians, but thc officers
ot tho army and navy are doop in tho scheme, ex?
pecting, if it bo successful, to secure better pay
and promotion.
Wo do not doubt tho reality cf this movement,
nor its wide ramifications. Wo aro assured of
both on the most undoubted authority, Such un
dorcturents, however, have always oxisted in tho
Island, evf r since thc first attempt' to throw off
tho Spanish yoke in tho American colonies.
There havo boon attempts of tho people
to gain their indepondcuco; attempts to
abolitionizo the Island: attempts of thc Creoles
to overpower tho Spaniards; attempts at
everything nuder tho ann, from tillibusterisni
on ? graud scale down to a local emente. But
they havo all amounted to nothing, and that is
whv tho Island of Cuba is still called "the cver
faitliful Isle." Held tight in tho Spanish vice,
eho has. alono, of all thc Spanish'American colo?
nies, thc honor of a loyal nomenclature, And now
eo finn is sho hold, by the presence of a powerful
army and navy, and hy almost impregnable foi t
resses, as well as hy tho executive offjoss all being
in the hands of Spaniards, who arc, every few
years, fresh from tho Peninsula, that thcro is
scarcely the p ssibility of tho success of any revo?
lutionary movement.-. ATeio Orleans Times.
PROVISIONS FOE THE SOUTH.-The evidences aro
unmistakable that there should bc no delay in for?
warding provisions to the destitute portions of
the South, and from no point can any of the greatest
sufferers ho more readily roached than frqm Btk
timove. What it is ttatod in the following that
ono railroad has dotcrniined to do in bringing for?
ward supplies, we havo no doubt that
all tho other roads leading into Baltimore
will also bc equally ready to uudcrtako,
apd if these provisions can be sont forward free
bf freight also, as intimated, lhere is every induce?
ment for farmers and others having anything to
spare to hurry their contributions to this city :

HOBE WEATHEB.-On Friday last we were visit?
ed with a severe sleet which' covered the fece or
creation with ugly looking icicle's, for this season,
and on Sunday night a heavy frost, to the killing
of young vegetation. The prospect of a good,
fruit crop is"considerably lessened since thia' cold
Bnap. We nave heard of a few fast farmers who
had corn up.-Newberry Herald. ?' '
THE WEATHEB.-On Friday morning last, snow
commenced falling, and continued to fell rapidly
foran hour or two, when it gave place to a cold
rain and sleet, which continued through the day
and a good part of the night. On Saturday morn?
ing the trees and housetops were covered .with
sleet and icicles. This was followed on Sunday
night by a heavy frost, which has injured the for?
ward gardens, and destroyed nearly all the fruit.
We hear of somo orchards iii which a few peaches
ore left, but we doubt if it is not too badly injured
to mature.
The weather is still cold and cloudy, with a good
prospect for a repetition of its last week's doings.
[Camden Journal.
No PEACHES THIS YEAH.-The peach trees in this
District, which were all out in full bloom, have
suffered severely from the late snow storm and the
frost of the succeeding night. The result will
probably be a scarcity or peaches, if not of apples
also: though the latter, bein? rather more back?
ward than tho former, may have escaped the
blighting effact of the cold weather. The snow
covered ground, the pink blossoms of the peach
trees, and the green leaves of the earlier budding
trees, formed a landscape not often. witnessed.
Had a painter ventured to put a scene like this on
canvas, he would have boen seyerely censured for
bis incongruities by tho critics. Yee this strange
commingling of icy drapery with .spring flowers
was actually beheld by hundreds of our people.
And it certainly was a beautiful picture; though
our joy in beholding was not a little alloyed by the
thought that there ase probably no peaches and
cream in store for us this summer. The snow hus
molted away; but cold, rainy days still continuo,
with but brief intervals of sunshine..
[ TorkoiUe Enquirer.
RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-We learn that the tender
and four cars of the down passenger train on the
Greenville Railroad ran oft the track yesterday a
short distance above Chappell's. The oars were
badly damaged, but luckily no one was hurt. The
up-train returned with the passengers, while a
freight train carried tho Greenville passengers to
their destination.-Columbia Phoenix.
HABEAS COBPUS.-Godfrey Wallace, freedman,
who is charged with stealing .cotton from William
Summer, Esq., of Newberry- some time since, was-j
brougut before his Honor, Judge Green, yesterday
morning, on a writ of habeas corpus, and after the
reading of several affidavits, he was admitted to
bail in tho sum of~$500. M?ssrs. Bachman &
Watics represented the prisoner.-Ibid.
ABBESTED BY THE MILITABY.-WO learn that
Burkbead, ono of the youths fur whom the Gov- |
err.or has offered a reward, and who wis arrested
recently by the Sheriff at Newberry, has been taken
into custody by tho military, and was removed to
Charleston last week. His friends olaim that his
mind is t.mporarily deranged, superinduced by
disease.-Anderson Intelligencer. ?
John Comfit and Monday Brown, freedmen, con?
victed of the crime of arson, were sentenced to be

HEAVY SLEET.-This section was visited, on Fri?
day and Friday night lost, by a fall of sleet which
covered tbe earth and clothed the tress with ice.
The aspect of nature was beautiful, almost beyond
description, on Saturday morning last. Our noble
evergreens, bowing humbly beneath their crystal
weight-the majestic oak, standing with body
erect, b;t. with tender-leaved branches drooping,
and trickling drops, as though weeping under its
affliction-the beauteous peach-ibloBsom, smiling
through its transp irent covering, while yet telling
us not. of 'its fruit to come, and all nature glisten?
ing in its icy robo. Pretty to look upon, ont sad
to con template in its effects. The peach crop is
probably dostroyed, while the effect upon the
tender plants of the garden has been sod.
