Tlic Cuban He-volution.
The Mew York Herald of the 22d inst. con- I
tains the manifesto of Gen. Ambrosio Jose (ion- 1
zalcz, to the people of the United States, in t
which he endeavors to establish the following , t
positions: i 1.
That Cuba suffers unparalleled oppression. ! j
2. That she has the undeniable right to re- i
volt. ' |?
3. That her people have clone towards effec j
ting it much of what they could possibly do. i
4. That the movement originated in Cuba. j <
5. That it was the fault of Spanish despotism : <
that the nucleus of our revolution was ejected i
from the island and compelled to prosper in the i
United States. - I
6. That the first and largest expedition was
raised entirely with Cuban money. i?
7. That it received the countenance of very , i
high officials. ?
8. That Cuba had a nght to aid troin tue |:
people of the United States. ] i
9. That such aid has been sought by the top-! i
reseutativos of a respectable political party. ! I
10. That it was granted by Americans of the J'
highest honor and principles. I i
11. That our movements arc proven on Span- I
ish official authority known the government, to 1 1
be purely political.
12. That the assertions contained in Mr. Fill- i I
more's proclamation are, for this reason, worse ; <
than gratuitous. j i
13. That the judicial tribunals of the land I j
have, in every instance, given their verdict to i
this efiect. i
14. That the measures pursued f.?r the raiding i
of means are the same as those adopted by all '
other people under the same circumstances.
15. Thai movements similar to ours have re-1
ceived the sanction of history. I
10. That it was merely the result of circumstatu't
s that hen. I.oj <i was not supported l<y j
the Cubans. j
17. That the Cuban revolution has been, by i
our efforts, re-planted upon its native soil, where !
it now progresses.
18. That consequently, we have a claim to !
the support of public opinion, and to the aid of
the American people, and the moral countenance
of their government in any future struggle
with the tyranny of Spain.
The manifesto enters fully into the secret history
of the movement, shewing the amounts
which the Cubans have at different times contributed
towards, and referring to the parts ta
ken therein, by distinguished citizens of ihe U.
States.
The following is an extract giving a history of
the movement, and some account of the part
which it was expected Gen. Worth would have
taken therein:
Since 1825 revolutionary clubs have existed
in Cuba under the name of Sola dt Bolivar, and
other designations. Conspiracies have succeednnrl
nrr-sU i till >|-Ui >11 :m-Tl < h.'lll- ! '

ishments and executions, have invariably follow-1 J
ed in theifwake. The act of the Spanish Cor- J '
tes in 183(5, denying the right of Cuban depu- j1
ties to seats theren, gave the first impulse to the
car of revolution. Narciso Lopez, the hero of |*
our infant history, a Venezuelan by birth, a Cu- I x
ban by adoption and affection, then the Govern- j A
or of Madrid, a Major General in the Spanish ! '
army, and a Senator in the Spanish Cortes for j f
the province of Seville, resolved from that very )
day, to throw his military experience, his lofty 1
gallantry, republican principles, untiring energies, j'
and iron will into the scale of Cuban freedom.? '
He accordingly resigned his high position, and i
came to Cuba in the company of his friend Don j x
Geronimo Valdes, appointed to the Captain Ge- c
neralcy cf that Island. 1
As long as this functionary was in power, Lo- |
pez abstained, out of considerations of friendship,
from revolutionary steps. lie held, during his , j.
administration, the post of civil and military governor
of the central province of Cuba, and was 1
also President of the Supreme Military Tribunal c
(common militar.) 0:> the removal of Valdes,
Gen. Ljpez no longer in office, applied himself
to the work he had been preparing in his mind, j
The revolution of 1848,which brought the email-1 ^
cipation of the blacks in the French Antilles,! J
opened the eyes of the more indolent and su ; .
pine of the Cuban planters to the dangers which
beset them on all sides from the abolition policy i
of England and France; they joined the more i j.
patriotic ones of their own class, and with the j
mass of Cubans, who dreamed of liberty alone,'
for liberty's sake, formed the revolutionary j {
party of which General Lopez naturally became '
tio Tlirt cr>rvico? of ! msin of* liis oii:i)i- i ,
ties, of Lis military position and popularity with i(
the army, was, in the face of a military despo- '
tism an important acquisition to the cause.
The American army had, at this juncture, con- j 3
quered Mexico. Froin Scott and Taylor to the s.
merest private laurels had been won which the
Cubans would have fondly interwoven with the |
leaves of their palms. A host of braves awaited ' (
under arms the orders to disband and return to ,
their homes. The opportunity presented itself j,
ol obtaining the aid of 5,000 Americans to the t
impending Cuban revolution, when no longer in (
the service of their country. Among the gem- \ ?
rals under the orders uf Scott, \V. J. Worth
seemed to combine the qualities of Imad and
heart?as he possessed the gallantry and the :
chivalry of the Bayard of the American army? j s
requisite for the acceptance of this noble trust; ,
andits successful execution. He was consequent- i t
ly approached, atJahipn, by Cuban <lcl"gates.!
The impression made upon me in conversations j _
with those most directly connected with this sub-; .,
jeet is, that he accepted their propositions, con-11
tingent upon his resignation of his rank in the ci

not disbanded in Mexico, as had been nnticipa-]
ted, and nothing could have been done while t
they were in the pay of the United States, i
About this time, General Lopez's conspiracy was 1
discovered, and'he, together with soinc distiii- i
guished Cubans, had to seek a refuge in the Uni- ^
ted States, against the. extreme penalty of the t
Spanish laws. The frustration of all our plans i
through sleepless vigilance of the Spanish au- t
thorities, the paucity of our resources at home, t
the unbound'd means of our oppressors, and the [
emigration of Gen. Lopez, the head and front of j
the, movement, to the United States, made it c
evident that the revolution could not be then s
successfully commenced in Cuba. d
In fact, iti a certain manner, already in the a
United States, where most of the intelligence, I
the courage, and the determination, then were, c
which constituted its very embodiment. It was '
dierefore necessary to bring- it back to Cuba, like
Minerva, steel-clad and panoplied, there to run
: It rough its subsequent states. This is the key
.0 our whole movement, and this it is that they
hould bear in mind who undertake t?> sit as
udges of our actions. The undersigned was,
mder the circumstances, sent to the United
states as a commissioner to Generals Lopez and
Worth, as well as to some Cuba patriots residing 'in
11 this country. Gen. Worth accepted the Pr
eventual command of an American army, which lja
was to act in support of a small force, headed,
n advance, by Gen. Lopez. For the raising of rci
.hose expeditions, three, millions of dollars were an
o be contributed by Cuba. A member of Gen. ^'c
Worth's military family, a gentleman of high 1>C
Landing and social position, was requested by a^'
ne to ?0 to Cuba iind see for himself into the Wi
-t.ite of affairs. lie returned satisfied with the wl
ibility of the persons connected with the move- po
nent to carry out their promises, ;ind was furlished

Wtilicatioiis, as Worth was desirous to possess. cj.
I hoso f;u*ts at once set fortii the character of the j,
indei'tahit'g, and show it to have been in the
'miitls of men of wealth, portion and responsibility:
for how cnild otherwise a man officii.
Worth's high honor and renown?now could the i 'J
ameiited Duncan and other equally distinguish- j 1
>d officers of the American army?have given
t their countenance and even engaged in pre- a"
?a rat ions for it, had it not received the approba- WJ
ion of their iudirnieiit. the encouragement of W1
heir Atiieric:ini>i:i, and tin- sanction of tlieir in- J

The election of General Taylor to the IVesi- | hn
Ici oy of the United States was n severe blow j of
,o the hopes of my countrymen, as they con It
oivul that his party would oppose any change J to
i. tlieir political condition. The death in Texas : mc

. -ril hi-, life and military reputation in the effort gu
o achieve the eomplciuent of American liberty, cd
a-1 an additional gloom over tie ir political as- U|i
i rat ions. Those who had risked themselves, j Wi
riainly from dread of the emancipation of slave- i rjg
v, seeing that matters' were not immediately ' ex
menacing, d.ew hack, and. together with t lie few j1;1(
,vho still hoped for concessions from Spain, de- ! 1ol

The Right of Speech.
The liberty of the press, the right of speech, and the
active franchise, are among the "certain and imilicna;
rights'' guarantied to every freeman, provided allys
that these rights are not extended beyond a lcinnate
lengtli. It is clearly therefore, the positive
fht of every man wlr- is disposed, to give his opinion
any and every subject relating to the policy of the
vernment under which he lives. lie may do this,
d even advise changes in old established customs,
thout being liable to the charge of innovating <>t
shing to jeopardize the dearest interests of the State
which ho lives. Having thus premised, we shall
X*ced to state very briefly, that it is in no "spirit oi
miration" that we urge a change in the present mode
electing Electors of President and Vice President.?
is an absolute and indisputable right, which belong*
tlic People, and any tiling short of it is an infringe nt
upcr. those ' certain and inalienable rights" which
long to jrce and indi-fumknt Stake. Wc get ourarincnt
from the highest authority known and acknowlged
in the nation. It is therefore not innovating
011 any legitimate right belonging to the people, thai
: urge a change, but believing and knowing tiiat this
:ht belongs properly to them, we are clear for tlicii
ercising it in their own proper persons. V.'c arc not ol
i "few restless p^tieians of the State'' who are anxis
"to plunge into the wildest and most dangerous
ovations," nor have we been in the least "foiled in
r efforts to reach distinction through it-- k-.iiimaU;
anncls. and entertaining some vague and uii 'eiincd
a of personal aggrandizement, are therefore willing
peril the prospects, and jeopardize the dearest inter:s
of our State under the hope that amid tiie turbuice
and excitement which will ensue, we may be
own upon some height far above our present elc-van."
Wc say we are not of tiiis class, and we wish it
understood. Upon the ground that one man is just
good as another as long as he conducts himself prorly,
and that in all free republican government that
b man is as much entitled to his opinion as another,
I that every citizen has a right to exercise his own
e will and do asseemeth unto him good, so long as
does not tresnassunou tho rich Is of others. Wo
, upon broad republican, democratic principles, we
locate the change of the election of* Electors ol
?sident and Vice President, and claim it as a right
longing to " tie, the people."
We yield to none in devotion to the dearest rights
1 interests of our native .State. We belong as prorly
to the ' conservative press" as those who oppose
: change, and as long as we arc connected with the
>.ss we shall never lend our aid for the purpose of seeing
the State "from her cherished principles." Wc
lieve that the calling in which wc arc engaged is an
norable one. and that the duties expected and reircd
of the press are more elevated than some an
ustomcd to assign it Wc never car be made an
trumcnt in the hands of a party. With one who
i already glanced at the high position of the press,
i are prepared to say that "Journalism in the hands
ible and honourable men is the noblest of callings;
the hands of the ignorant and mercenary, it is among
meanest,"

, ' A writer ill the Charleston Mercury of Tuesday, over
the signature ot "Traveller," in speaking of this excel

" We were d tained a week in Columbia incx]?etaliou
each day of being put through the
' next on the Kaiiinad to Charleston ; and though
i rendered a little heart >ick at lir.-t, by having
, i hope deferred, we owe it to a fortunate circuit)j

for many weeks. 'We shrewdiy suspected that

must confess tliat "v> ry day of oar stay t iereaIter
it was ucith-r letter nor worse?at least
there was so uniformly >; read before us all that
a well whetted appetite could crave, that we
could* hardly distinguish from first t last which
day's fare was the best. We fell into an error
1 011 another point also. The very constant, polite,
and effective attentions of Mr. Janney and
' his courteous assistant. Mr. Harris, were such,

sonic unaccountable cause, the object of very
unusual ami sjsocial attentions,butsoon perceived
> that we wore only as other men, for this model
of a gentleman landlord, strange to say, seems
I to regard all visitors to his hotel as equally entitled
to his personal solicitude. This is indeed
as it should he, hut sis is not generally the ease.
I low frequently do we see subservh nt landlords

i their guests, and craving hv lhw?'itig sycophancy
the honor of their patronage whilst to the modest
and iiiiohiru-ivc way I'nrer who pays at the

times i xhibit the insolence of petty oftieo behind

have the benefit of a week's re-idetice in this ad
mirable cstahlishtnent, they might profit by the
i example of the accommodating gentlemen who

The Voice.
I Perhaps there is no outward sign of character
so descriptive as the voice; there is certainly
j none which so in-tantiy d< cides the truthful or
I" deceitful nature. It N not in the mere melody
of the voice that this power lies, for there may
l?e voices sweet as the songs of forest birds,
; through wIukc mu-ie is -till In ard the soft sor
pent hiss of till < !;?) d. Where the nature is nof
l'le and earnest, th" voice will lie an echo to the
, i-heart, it will vary with every emotion, and in
I the ringing tones of" it - glee, or the deep mournfulness
of its sorrow, will he heard the harmony
of a truthful soiiit. Jlut if the soul be degraded
and cm lu d beneath a weight of sin?if the oracles
of conscience have been silenced in the temple,
then will the outward voice tell the einptiI
ness and desolation within the soul. Let none
trust the woman, whoso shrill and high pitched
1 tones tell of the craft of the head, but never of
1 the depths of the heart. Still less let any trust
the man, whose hard, harsh, rattling voice, tells
! of the iron nature and its debased energies.

Jle was a native of Va., but from early life resiclod
in South Carolina, where he is extensively
known and much beloved; many relatives and
friends in that State will mourn his decease. In
the fall of 1834, he emigrated to this State, and
spent the evening of life in quiet retirement,
declining all public participation iu political ques:
tions and party strife, that might unfit his mind
I for reflection of a higher and holier nature. Perhaps
few men have lived so long and made as
few enemies. lie was a true patriot, houest in <
; his opinions and views, yet profoundly respectful
' to the sentiments of others.?The writer of this j

and from an intimate perianal knowledge of him J*i

sav, that few, wry few, tatter men in his opin- J
ion ever lived or died, lie was a kind, attentive **
h.isband, a fond devoted father, a humaneindul*
l gent master, a sincere frieud. He was a worthy
: member of the M. E. Church, and as a christian \
I huuihle and modest. His sufferings were pro- j
j traeted and severe, but patience possessed his j
I spirit. For some time before his death it gave
' him pain to converse, and he said but little, when |
; asked as to tlio state of his mind, he informed 1
mo that his confidence and 11 ust were firm in the / 1
Hatccmer and Savior of the world. He ex- I
pressed a willingness to go, and spoke of the ma- I

Lie was no stranger on reaching that happy home. I
Farewell dear father, thy welcome presence 1
will no more gladden the dwellings of thy cliil
dren, thy smiles will no more cheer and light up I
their earthly pathway. One of the strongest I
tics that bound us to earth has been parted, but a
we bow in humble submission. Undisturbed be I
the abode of thy dust, till the great rising day,
while thy spirit basks in the brightness of un- fi
created light forever. 8
