The Cabans re? served their fire for short range, and compell? ed the Spaniards to seek shelter behind their artillery. After three boors delar, Valmaseda attacked tbe position with his entire force, re? ported by deserters to be more than four thou? sand, of which half were regulars. The Caban force consisted of about six thousand, with only about four thousand well armed. The contest luted lbcrut -five hoars, wheo Talmaseda retre:.:ed to Los Tunas.

The deserters report that Talmaseda had ?ll his available force in this engagement, with thirty-two pieces of artillery, some heavy, and two regiments of cavalry. The Cabana had thirteen pieces of small calibre and no effectively equipped cavalry. This ba.tie, the first of any importance since the commence ment of the war, causes mach rejoicing among the Caban army.

Outrages increaae fearfully, and are of a character too revolting to be believed. * NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

Thc Outlook from ?ho ? api tal-The Late General Rawlins-Who will Suc? ceed Him-* Contemptible Adminis? tration-The Greenback Policy Loom? ing Up-The Fifteenth Amendment, &e.. &e. [FBosf oun OWN onmonBR 1 WASHTHOTOS, September 9.-The doith of Secretary Rawlins, although not unexpected, ie nevertheless regarded as a calamity, especi? ally at this crisis in public affairs. Thoge who knew him best assert that he held strong con? servative views, and so lon? as he remained in the Cabinet would have exerted a wholesome influence over the President, in the important matter of the treitment of the South I am not prepared to state this as a fact within my own knowledge, but simply give it as current opinion in political circles here. Who will be the next Secretary of War ? is a question freely asked, but not yet answered. There is a rnmor that Grant, with that su? premo shortsightedness and stupidity that have charactered his administration thus far, will confer the office upon a little "dried np" fellow from Iowa, named Dodge, who, I be? lieve; was onoe a volunteer general, and more recently a member ol the House of Representa? tives. He is said (o be a good railroad and bridge builder, but I am sure he would lend neither dignity nor brains to a Cabinet office; yet he may, on thal account alone, be chosen by Grant, of whom he is a political and person? al miniature. Under the American system of Federal gov? ernment, every administration must necefsa rily be acknowledged durine its term of office; but I venture to say there never was, within the memory of tba "oldes: inhabitant," euch a lack of all the elements of respectability and statesmanship as is now painfully visible throughout the executive and legislative de? partments of the governments-especially the former; and it is this very want of necessary gocerninq qualities that breeds the confusion, doubt and uncertainty that never prevail in governments where brain roles "loyalty," in? stead of "loyalty" ruling brain. The simple fact ia, tho coon try bas fallen into unskilful, untrained hands. As well might a ploughman undertake to navigate a ship aaa tanner to govern a country-especially "the greatest the world ever saw,-' . ? These views must be known and appreciated by every candid and unbiased man who bas paid the least attention to the working of tho government for the past six months, bo say nothing of the eight years immediately pre? ceding; and it is this state of affairs that bas already produced, to a considerable extent, and will continue to produce, a reaction amongst the people. The leaders >i the pres? ent dynasty see this in the countenances of their once faithful parasites. They bear it in every echo that comes from their homes; and, more than all, it is breaking the chain that bas BO long bound tho larger portion of tho Ameri ca press to tba support of tnat political or* gauizalion now passing in such severe review before the critical eyes of au abused and out? raged people, j The spoils of offlos-the "cohesive power of public plunder," aa the great Sooth' Carolinian forcibly expressed it-no longer romain to be distributed amongst the "faithful.'' The para? sites of Grant himself have already received the larger share, and the rest has been frit* tared away on useless camp-followers, who stand ready to join either the Conservative or Radical wing of the party, which eyer may for the time be uppermost. This is the coo dit io a of the niling organizition to-day: Without a bead, without a s ta team in, without brains, and without decency, Nothing to hold it together save the threadbare boast of "loyalty," and the stale cry of "Copperhead" and "Bobbitt." arrayed against thia factious and peaco-dtE tnrbmg element ls the Democratic, or, if yon please, the Conservative masses of the coun? try. They are led by men of in tellec t, cf power, and, above all, of principle, and wherever they have planted themselves firmly on a great right, or in opposition io a great wrong, they have sooner or later brought the mi} jrity to ( them. Th9 election of Grant last fall, and bis sub sequent installation in the Executive chair, re? moved the scales from the eyes of the people, and the wonder now is,- how they came to ele:t auch an individual to such a high office. There is no longer any power in bis name, nor charm in his brise battons, and the demand is for a statesman. This demand the Democracy ire determined to meet, and even in the Gu? bernatorial contests now going on in the States of Pennsylvania and Ohio, they have present? ed two citizens who are qualified to meet every emergency, and to answer tho, present exigencies of the country. The campaign in each of these Stares is conducted on PBINCI PLE. Tue power of Congress to regulate the question of soff rag? in the States, and the right of the bondholders to be paid in gold, while everybody else io1 paid in depreciated paper-these are great questions, and I am folly persuaded that they will bo answered this very year tn the negative. Where, then, will be the strength of an ad? ministration committed to the support of both the above mentioned measures ? Can il longer claim to lepresent tbe people? Or will the President, following the EagliBh example, tske the hint, and change the ministry ? The latter is too much .to hope for; the former is equally out of the question. AU that rennins is, for the successful contestants to follow up their now almost certain victory. To strike, as soon as they can, the present oppressive tax levy from the industry of the country; to stop put? ting the dulles on imports into tbe pockets of bondholders; to pay interest on a debt which can be "wiped ont" as rapidly as Treasury printing presses cm turn off greenbacks, and that too according to and in pnreuance of tho very law under which this bond debt was in? curred. There are great measures of reform demand? ed by the people, and to be made for the peo? ple. Prosperity and contentment throughout the whole country will follow their enactment, as sore as night follows dar. The turmoil, Btrife and misgovernment that now prevail will vanish, and none know the tact better than the leaders of an organization whose crucifixion is apparently so near. Ur. Greeley was im? pressed with this fact wben he treated in the columns of the Tribune the nomination of Afr. Pendleton in Ohio, as'^a strong one." And since the returns from California, it may well be doubted whether there ls any greater chance for the ratification of the Fifteenth amend? ment than there is for paying the principal of of the five-twenties in gold. The former is purely a domestic affair; the latter almost an international question, but one over which we nave as much control as over the forme". Shrewd foreign specolators-men who fat? tened upon khe blood and bones of America's best tsons-begin non to see that the United States five-twenties are,at ter all, a Yankee inven? tion, and, like all others of that class, pretty much of a swindle. There ie no law requiring thoir redemption in gold; and I should like to see how a bill for that purpose would fara, even in the present Congress, amongst Southern "carpet-bagger?" and Western Radicale. The result of all this doubt and uncertainty is that foreigners, especially Germane, are quietly but surely preparing for a grand collapse of the "national blessing." The question cannot remain unanswered much longer. Bontwell may go on buying bonds aud cancelling them. He may exhibit his monthly statement, but tbe people demand to know why they are taxed, when the government could be carried on from the duties on imports, as it was for sev? enty years alter tho adoption of the constitu? tion. If $300,000,000 annually in paper are re? quired for the expenses of the Federal system, and nearly $100,000,000 in gold, additional, to pay interest on $2,600,000,000 of public debt, when are the people tobe brought back to the old hard money basis? There is but one practical solution of this great question, and that is to be found in the response of the Democracy of the West GREENBACKS ! The country rnu-t come to it. The government's promises to pay must be payable on demand in lawful money. And if Congress declares paper to be lawful money, and the Supreme Conrt sustains that de? claration, why should the bondholder de? mand money for his debt, which cannot be demanded for any other obligation equally honest, equally just, and equally lawful ? X. THE PEOPLE xor Iff a. Union County Speaks Oat-A Protest Against thc Heckled and Eitrava? gant Use of the Stale Credit-Pair No? tice to Wall-street-A State Conven? tion Called. A meeting of tbe citizens of Union County was held at Union Courthouse on Monday, Sep? tember 6. Major Benj. Kennedy was called to the chair, and B. A. McKnight, Esq., was ap? pointed secretary. Major B. H. Rice offered tho following preamble and resolutions, with a few appropriate remarks : Whereas, The enormous taxation imposed by the present- State government, and tbeir wasteful expenditure and reckless issuing of bonds, excite alarm in the minds ot those whoso capital and labor stand pledged, without their voice or consent, to the redemption of the same; and, whereas, it is deemed just to our? selves, as also an act of good faith, to give to the world notice of our intention to use every means to avoid the payment of these obliga? tions; therefore, be it Reaoloed, That we declare and pnblisb, with? out delay, to all concerned, our indisposition and inability to pay the monstrous bonded debt raised and being raised in the name of South Carolina, and onr solemn caveat against the purchase of, or advance of money on, such bonds, for any consideration created since 1865. as it is tbe unalterable purpose ot tbe capital and labor of this State never to pay them, t Resolved, That we are willing te nay all the legitimate expenses of civil government, and all tho obligations of the otate, principal and interest, created by ber representatives in good faith, previous to the war. Resoioed, That the tatives and bona fide citizens, of whatever nativity or color, have wUb us a common interest and the same ne? cessity for the speedy restoration of honest civil role, and the "preservation of Ufe, liberty and property" in an afflicted commonwealth. Rtsolr.J. That in view of these grievances stated, we hereby place on record our oppoei- i tion thereto, and invite our fellow-sufferers of every county in the State to meet with us by their representatives in Columbia, on Wednes? day, the 10th day of November next, to take counsel together, and to adopt such measures as may be proper for security and relief. After discussion, they were unanimously adopted. On motion, it was RescHted, That THE CHARLESTON NEWS, Co? lumbia Phoenix, and the papers of the State generally, he requested to publish a copy of ie resolutions. The meeting adjourned, to meet again on the drat Monday in October. THE PIGTAILS. The Cost of Importing Chinese Labor. The Vicksburg Times reports at consider? able length a speech of General W. R. Miles, who has recently returned from San Francis? co, where be went at the instance of the Vicks? burg Chamber of Commerce in the interests of the Chinese immigration scheme. The fol? lowing is a portion of his address : Can we get this labor ? If the United States Government does not interfere we can. In small quantities for next year, atterwards as many as we wish. And having satisfied myself that the labor wonld snit us, I directed my attention to the question of encouraging immigration. Bear in mind that those who are well of, and have means, do not want to migrate; and that those wbo want to como and work for a term of years are not able to pay transportation and subsistence from China here; but they are willing and anxious to enter into a contract in China, fairly worded, stipulating for fair wages for a period of five years, that out of the total sum to accrue for the five years' labor, enough shall be advanced, by the party who makes the contract with thom, to pay all expense growing ont of their transportation and subsistence, and that the balance of the wages stipulated for shall be paid to the laborer monthly, quar? terly or annually, as may be agreed upon. Finding this disposition to exist, I made ar? rangements to Bend to China, by tho steamer to leave Sin Francisco on tho 4th of Septem? ber, and to contract with as many as transpor? tation could^ba.found for. Some 8900 or 10,000 might have ween obtained in time tor tho next crop. But just as this arrangement had been completed, Mr. Secretary Bout well's letter to the collector at New Orleans was pub? lished in tho newspapers. This letter seem? ingly forbids the coming to this country of any number of Asiatics under contract for labor, or service tor a term of years, entered into in a foreign country; and, in consequence of this apparent prohibition, the party who was to go out to China suggested that be could not en? counter the risk ot the great outlay for char? tering and provisioning ships for these labor? ers, so long as it was probable, or even possi? ble, that the government would interfere with his delivering them in fulfilment r>f the foreign contract. But be stated to me that ir tho land? owners, and others bcre who wanted this iibor, were willing to ruu tbe risk of the gov? ernment interfering, be would go out on the October steamer and bring as many as trans POI cation could be found tor to New Orleans. Going out in October, the laborers could not well reach New Orleans before Febratry or Mason. It is impossible to state with precies accu? racy what this labor will OOM, because in exe? cuting the contracts before Chinese authori? ties, and having them certified before tho American authorities there, certain expenses for fees whr.b we do not know how to estimate will have to bi paid. For neither the Chin?se Mandarin nor the American Consul will work without pay. I feel safe in saying that irom six hundred to six hundred and fifty dollars will cover everything, of which two hundrvd dollars must bc* paid on tho arrival of tho la? borer, and the residue at such intervals th io ugh thc five Tears, monthly or Otherwise, aa may be agreed. Payment to be made in currency, not in coin. This will bo between ten and eleven dollars per month, tho hirer to supply rations, the laborer to clothe himself and pay his own doctor bills. If this lahor ia wanted on these terms, all you have to do ?8 to deposit, each for himself, with Wiri Adama & Co., a sum of money in proportion to the number of laborers he wants. Whenever a Bum shall b? deposited sufficient to cover one or moro car eoes, I will write or telegraph to San Francis? co. The party engaged there will go over to China by the first outgoing steamer, and will, with all convenient speed, make the contracts, ship the laborers, and will deliver them on board ebip, anchored in the stream off the Customhouse in New Orleans, bis responsibili? ty being at an end when anchor is cast, you taking ell the riek of government interfarence.

To the People of South Carolina: The above Company was organzed in 1866, in consequence of Ore wholesale forfeiture of Southern policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled success of the enterprise has torced several of these companies to restore their Southern policies, lroni (he fact that they could not operate in our midst without the appearance of honesty. We keep all our money at home to build up o ar impoverished country-every dollar of premium being safely Invested in the at ate from which it ia de? rived. Thc institution is purely Southern, and hence sbou'd appeal with great force to the patriotism and -nd sympathy of every Southern heart. 'Iis not our purpose to make war on other com? panies, but to exhibit the special advantages offered by thia purely Southern Company-founded cn patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio of assets to liabilities-the true test of a company's strength-is second to none on this continent, being nearly $800 to $100. Whenever and wherever we have preaeoted the claims of this Company, it bas not only enlisted the sympathies of our people, but has also secared their hearty co-operation. We bave secured COO policies in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We number among our Directors General Wade Hamp? ton and Colonel Wm. Johnston, gentlemen well known fo every citizen of South Carolina. We ap? peal personally to the people oT &ontb Carolina to assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular Southern institution. J.
