Says the Travoller correspondent : "Proniiuent Ameri? cans aro endeavoring to induce tho President to take Homo stop or make a declaration showing hiB approval of the annexing of the leland of ?3'. Domingo to the United States, and that he is in sympathy with any move? ment which has this objoct in view. This would be merely an open declaration on the part of the President of what ho does not hesitate to admit in private conversation,. and making, to a certain extent, an official announcement of those views. When this is done, it is claimed by those who aro urging this course, thal Presi? dent Baoz, of the St. Dumingo Republic, will at once recognize tho belligerency of Cubans, and extend such aid as will insure their suo oess in obtaining their independence. As the island of ot. Domingo is but a few hours sall from Eastern Cuba, whore tho insurrection is tho strongest, it would give the insurgents a strong.foothold from whioh to ship munitions of war, and commit depredations upon the Spanish commerce with email vessels, which could run out and in the harbors at pleasure. This plan, it seem?, was proposed several days ago, but kept secret from fe%r it would be frustrated. Whether it is successful or not, per? sons well-informed as to Cuban movements as? sert, with great confidence, that St. Domingo ' will soon recognize Cuban belligerency.* CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 14, 1869. The Triple Alliance. A London dispatch to the New York Tri? bune says that initiatory steps have been taken for an alliance, both offensive and defensive, between England, France and Spain, against the United States; this meas? ure being taken in view of the rejection of the Alabama treaty, the tone of Sumner's speech, the filibustering tendencies of Grant's administration, and the reported connivance of the United States authorities with the expeditions against Cuba. This dispatch is entitled to consideration, be? cause it is sent, to a journal whioh has never made a practice of oooking up highly-Bpi ced foreign news for the sake of an ephemeral notoriety. The foreign correspondence, of the Tribune is 'both able and trustworthy, and it may be taken for granted that it is believed in the London office of that paper that the new triple alliance is in procees of formation. But there is a broader and more emphatic reason why such an alliance may be looked for. If there is any virtue in senatorial speaking, in newspaper writing, and in the popular sentiment whioh is moulded by the press, England will, sooner or later, be forced into a war with the United States. This must be as plain at the Court of St. James as it is under the shadow of the dusky Goddess Of Liberty who broods over the Federal capital. And it is equally evi I dent that it ie the desire of the United Stataa -co-make war on England alone. Franoe has, in every instance, escaped the opprobrium whioh has been heaped upon "perfidious "Albion." Her Majesty's Government re? cognized the Southern Confederacy as a belligerent power. Napoleon proposed to recognize the independence of the Confede? rate States. Earl Russell-a weak and ir? resolute politician-allowed the golden op? portunity to pass, and Franoe was not strong enough to act alone. Yet lhere are sweet words and honied phrases for the Toileries, while Sumner's declamation and Chandler's abuse are all that is vouchsafed Great Bru???. It is, then, manifestly to the interest of the English Government to form an alliance whioh will make her so strong that a war with her would be hopeless and ruinous. Thero is enough oonoeit in the universal Yankee nation to goad on the Sphinx-like Grant Co a war at any price. But with Franoe at her back, England has nothing to fear, and Spain, which is oheated and bam? boozled at every turn by the Grant admin? istration, would find in a coalition with England and Franoe full security for Cuba, and an armor of proof to defend her from the ill concealed enmity of the United States. Glancing over the field, then, it is safe to say that a triple alliance, such as that spo? ken of in the Tribune dispatch, would be, foi England and Spain, a master stroke of policy, while it would not in any way inter? fere with the purposes of Franoe. This being the case, it is fair to assume that there is some foundation for the startling rumor whioh in New York is "generally "disbelieved." In th? meanwhile, every Southerner should wat oh the politioai horizon with a oalm and steady eye. We know not what might be the final result of a war between the Government of the United States and the three powers; but it is the part of wisdom to keep our house in order and be ready- to meet every issue that may arise. Our people now should be ohary of contracting debts and of increasing their outstanding engagements. The first seri OUB talk of a war would drive gold out of sight, and in the course of the war the his tory of the Confederate currency would bf repeated. We must live quietly, and, as fai as possible, within ourselves. Especial attention should oontinue to be given to raising breadstuffs. No opportunity should be negleoted of increasing our manufaotu ring oapaoity. Our aim should be to make the South as far as possible independent ?o that if the war oloud does burst over this country, we may be in a position to ride out th? storm with but little loss, and be able to take every proper advantage of th? ohanoes and oontingenoUs of the future. TIM Savannah and Charleston MailroaUl We are requested to say that the Courier was premature in announcing on Wednes day that a contract had been perfected for the rebuilding of th? Savannah and Charles? ton Railroad from Coosawhatohie to Sa? vannah. The oontraot at that tina was not signed; but we are authorized to say that ls now excouted, and* that Charleston will ha?e dirset communication with Savannah by rait, by January lat, and by rall and steamers on tho Savannah river, by Octo? ber 1, ?ext. HE CHARLESTON DAI] Tit? flench Klecllons. The elections which lake place on Sun? day, May 26, are causing deep excitement in France, and four meetiugs in P?ris of a political character have been dispersed by the police. As was' expected, the opposi? tion to tho government in the capita) and the ohief cities is more aotive than ever be? fore ; but, so perfeot is the machinery of the government, and so great the iufluenoe exercised by ItB officials, that it will be almost impossible for a. oaudidate in the rural districts to obtain more than a re? spectable majority. The Emperor, in re? moving the restrictions upon the employ? ment of workingmen, and in decreeing a pension to the surviving veterans of the Empire, has struck high for popular sup? port ; for Napoleon is shrewd enough to know that the intelligent portion of the people are becoming weary of his system of personal government, and that i* ia time tc concede to them a larger abare of power and restore at least the form of parliamentary freedom. This oau only be done in a legis? lative assembly which om be relied on never to exercise its privileges in persist? ent opposition to his interests and will. Henoe his efforts not to secure a govern meat success, which is certain, but to pre vent the opposition from adding to their strength by electing additional members THE LONDON TIMES, of the 29th ult., has a loader commenting upon the appointment of Mr. Motley and the proposed renewal of nego? tiations on the Alabama claims. The oable briefly r iferred to this article a few days ainoe in such terms as to exoite muon anxiety to eeo the article in full, on the part of the mer? chants, bankers and others, whose interests are more or lesa influenced by the discussion of the question. The article is in good tem? per throughout, though the regret ia repeat? edly expressed that tho John son-Stanley treaty was not accepted by the Americans,- "especial? ly aa Mi. Seward (aa keen a diplomatist as any country could desire) had accepted it as a dual? ity." Had the result been otherwise, the edi? tor intimates, ''the United States would have*| obtained a treaty which a good many English people thought to involve excessive conces? sions on out* part." The artiole concludes aa follows : "If we are invited to discuss tho question of England's right to recognize the Southerners as belligerents, it Will bo for her Majesty's Government to decide whether, after all that baa been said and written on the sub? ject, it is worth while to revive that contro? versy. There are limits beyond which national courtesy cannot pass, and when we are asked to acknowledge that an ordinary act of national sovereignty, necessary for the due security of our own commerce, wu au offence against the Americans to be expiated by apologies or payments, there cannot be much uso in dis? cussion."
