From present indication. it is not unlikely but m<>nt will be forced into ft difficulty that our government wiu oe ??w n..h?n of some kind with Spain, growing out cf the Cuban rffirnlties It ?* apparent that a large portion o our citixens willreadily embrace any plausible pre text for obtaining a foothold in "the garden,o(^?he W?t Indies" and the short-sightedness oftheSpan ^ authorities in that Island will most probably punish our cititens not only with a pretext, but with justifiable ground for difficulty with Spam, and should a war ensue. Cuba will follow the -car of the Conqueror." While we say nothing as to the rood or evil of Cuban annexation, even il accom plished by legitimate means, still it ?*notJ^u" proper to look at the question calmly and see its relations to out own institutions and our domestic oeace Were the South a lone Confederacy it Vould certainly be to her interest to obtain this valuable Island, but as the citizens of our Union are so much divided upon the slavery question, it nay Well be a question worthy the examination of .11 the parties in interest, whether it would be prop er to annexjher lawfully, even, unless the slave question ts to her were first fully understood and appreciated. Without examining this question now as we proposed to ouraelves at the commence ment. we will adjourn it With the single remark that all .interested in this question affirmatively, should first see a lawful means of acoomplishmg the end, which they propose, and then look well to the consequences, which will legitimately fo - low Cuban annexation, consequences which must affect our Union and our political fraternity in a greater or less degree. We are well aware of the wealth and value of this Island, of the excellence of its climate, the adaptability of its soil to all the products of the South, its excessive fertility and its importance in almost every particular, still we say to all, think before you act, and above all lookwel to the consequences of your action. We have no doubt that some important governmental change will ere long be produced in Cuba, and that sooner or later our Covemment will have to take some ac tion on the subject, but what that action will be or what it should be must depend upon developments to be made hereafter. But nevertheless it is our duty to look at the matter beforehand andendeav or to be prepared for any emergency which maybe forced upon us, and to be so prepared as that our action will redound to the honor, the interests and the coinmon welfare of all portions of our great confederacy. _ Western Railroads. The rapid completion of the various lines of railroad in progress of construction in the Western Statciiis bringing us daily nearer, in point of time, to those cities and counties ot the far Welt which but afcw years since seemed as remote from us as California itself now appears to be. W e find in the Dayton Journal the followiug particulars re specting the Cincinnati, Hamilton, and Dayton Railroad, one of the best constructed lines in the State of Ohio: Prom the character of the country through which this road is located?from its secured with all the roads leading into Indiana and to the north and east of Dayton?we are firm u tJecM vi-tion that the Cincinnati, Hamilton, and Da> - tnn Railroad will be one of the most useful and profitable .oadsofthe country, at least for the bal ance of the present century. No rival load can be built to materially affect its business, or prevent rood diviJends to its stockholders. . We learn that the business on the rosd u rapid ly increasing, the last month's earnings being dou ble those of the first month of the yei-r. 1 he number of passengers carried over the road, seven eiehths of whom are local, have averaged one thousand per day lor the last two months.

Important Slave Case. The case of Cecil Oliver ct al. against Daniel Kauffman, el ah, which has been pending for some time past, in the United* States circuit court in Philadelphia, has resulted in a verdict of 82,800 damages against Kauffman, and the acquittal of the other defendants. The action was brought under the provisions of the act of Congress of 1793, to re* cover damages for harboring and concealing thir teen slaves who had escaped into Pennsylvania from the custody of their owners, the plaintiffs, who reside in Maryland. Judge Grier, in his charge to the jury, said: "Whether the plaintiffs could have sustained an action on the case on the mere guarantee of their rights as contained inthe Constitution, we need not inquire. The action has been instituted with reference to the terms used in the act of Con gress of 1793. The fine inflicted by that act, can be no longer recovered, because the act of I860, having changed the penalty, has thereby repealed the act of 1793, to the extent to which it has been thus supplied. But the statute, so far as it gave an faticn on the case, for harboring and conceal ing, has not been supplied or repealed. jr ? ? ? ? a .'.'It is4oo plain for argument, that this act does not intend to make common charity a crime, or treat that man oj guilty of an offence against his neighbor who merely furnishes food, lodging, or raimenttotlie hungry, weary, or naked wandrrrr, though he be an apprentice or a slave. On the contrary, it contemplates net pnly an escape of the slave, but the intention of the master to reclaim him. It points out the mode ia which this recla mation is to be made; and itis foran unlawful in terferance or hindrance of this tight of reclama tion, scoured to the master by the Constitution and laws, that thissctiop is given. '(The harboring msde criminal by this act, then, requires some other ingredient besides a mere kind ness or obarity rendered to the fugitive. The in tention or purpose which accompanies the act, dust be toeocourage the fugitive in his desertion of hil m Uteri to further his escape, and impede and fnutcate his reclamation. "This act must evince an intention to elude the vigilance of the mister, and be calculated to obtain the object.'

From the Boaloii Transcript, November 6. Scenes at the Polls in New York City. Those who have never attended ah election in New York will hardly credit the accounts which are given of the scenes at the polls on the day of an important contest Owing to the absence of a register law, for which our Democratic Inends are alone responsible, every species of fraud and cor ruption is practiced. We learn, from the Express, that the most marked feature at the election in New York, on Tuesday, was the presence at the polls of hordes of rowdies and blackguards. "Boys from sixteen to eighteen years of age, already in their appearances, giving evidence cf a life of va grancy and the lowest kinds of dissipation; men with bloated faces, in whose expression one could read the index to their debased and unprincipled minds, cursing, drinking, giving utterance to the most obscene and profane expressions, yelling like fiends for the different candidates they were paid to support, and often proceeding to deeds of violence of the grossest character, were the marked charac teristics of the scene." The Express gives the following almost incredita ble picture of the abominable outrages which were submitted to by the authorities: "We saw, on Tuesday last, old grey headed men, men of standing in the community, grand sires, men of worth and respectability, whose ap pearance should be their protection, beset by the ribald crew and shoved and jostled and buffeted about past all endurance; all sorts of tricks thrust upon them, and solicited to vote for this man and tliat, and advised as to the principles of the different parties by dirty, drunken, blackguard boys, who had not intelligence enough to comprehend the mystery of a mousetrap, and the fcetid smell of whose breath was enough to turn the stomach of a pig. We saw the entrance to the polls in one of the districts in a certain ward completely blockaded with these desperadoes, and the passage of every decent-looking man interrupted, while the police stood by, laughing at the "fun." We sawadrunk an Irishman, whose vote had been challenged and sworn by him, stand at the polls and perseveringly challenge the vote of every decent-looking man who presented himself to exercise his right, and conduct himself in the most disorderly and indecent manner possible, without the slighest interference from those who were placed there to preserve order and protect order-loving citizen in the exercise of their dearest privilege. "We also saw in the day a candidate for an of fice of secondary importance come in the polls for the purpose ofseeing that "all was right," and that his friends were "working" for him; no sooner had he jumped from his wagon thau these hardies beset him on every side, for the purpose of "striking" him?as it is called in their classic vocabulary? for money. Some wanted five dollars, others two, others one, and o few less voracious, not quite as persevering and willing to accept the slightest fa vors, insisted upon getting "a quarter," "a shil len," or even "a sixpence," to get a glass of beer. The poor candidate was nearly torn to pieces by these clamorous beggars, and he only escaped from their clutches through the assistance of two friends, who bore him away from the vicinity, and, placing him on his wagon, drove him off. The moment he was gone the rowdies set up a yell of derision, call ! ing him "a mean cuss,'' though he had distributed all the money among him he had with him, and, rushing to the box where his tickets were placed, seized and tore them up, and then went to the nearest corner grocery to get drunker than they i were on bad liquor at his expense." These abuses are not of recent origin. They have been tolerated for the last twenty-five years, becoming annually aggravated as the irresponsible class of rowdies and political bullies increases.? The Tribune tells us that there was no obstacle whatever on Tuesday to the casting of illegal votes by thousands. There being no registry law, the opportunities are great for fraudulent voting, and these opportunities are rarely neglected. It can be said that both parties can avail themselves of them; but the Whigs, whenever they have had a chance, have passed a registry law, which the Democrats have repealed as soon as they returned to power. These abuses are pregnant with fatal evils to the cause of republicanism, and every honest Demo crat will labor to reforji them. We may contrast with pride the spectacle presented at our polls in Boston on a voting day with the scenes above de scribed. The man who would venture to insult or incommode a voter, whether rich or poor, at our polls, would soon be put into the hands of the po lice and punished to the full extent of the law.? Let those who countenance these flagrant outrages in New York beware of the time when men shall ?ay? give us rather the despotism of an individuel ?of a Louis Napoleon, if you will?than the des potism of a drunken, irresponsible mob of illegal voters. y.mHHTA The fact that the American Colonization Society intended sending out 175 colored emigrants in ves sel which was to leave Norfolk (Va.) on the 4th instant, being announced, the number of appli cants has increased until there are 480, of whom the largest portion are from Virginia, the rest be ing from North and South Carolina. One hundred and twenty-five are from Norfolk and its vicinity. The company, having actually promised passages to as many as 350, is now preparing to send out two vessels, one of which will leave Norfolk on or about the 18tii inst., and the other Wilmington (N. C.) about the 20th. Upon these facts the Philadelphia American remarks as follows: '?This excess of emigrants over the number re quired is a noteworthy evidence of what we have before remarked, that the colored people of our country are much more disposed tp emigrate than they weie some years since. Evdry vessel which has been announced ns ready to* take emigrants to the n?\v republic has found more than her com plement of passengers, and there can be no doubt that, were the facilities for emigration greater than they are at present, the number of the free color ed people desiring to go to Liberia would be frund amply sufficient to occupy them all. It cannot be long before such opportunities will be afforded at most of the large seaport cities, not merely through the aid of colonization society,but by the entrance into the field of private commercial enterprise.? The society have not now the means adequate to the performance of their task, but no doubt the general desire entertained by the American people to aid that unfortunate race in their exodus to the land of their forefathers will prompt them to con tribute freely from that abundance which prosperi ty has showered upon our people. "The opinion is becoming every day more wide ly diffused among the free colored race in America that the republic established by their kindred on the western coast of Africa is as free, peaceful, secure, and happy as our own, and that it is gov erned by a public policy which is wise,enlightened and promotive of prosperity. From their friends and acquaintances who have gone there they hear constantly, by letter, thetnost favorable accounts of the land, and the prospect which there awaits the emigrant. With these inducements before them, it is not surprising that they are desirous of leaving a land where they must always be an infe rior race, to go where they will be equal with all, and endowed with all the rights of freemen and cizizens. "At the North, where colonization has for many years encountered the most strenuous opposition, a spirit of inquiry has been aroused among the col ored people who opposed it, and they have held meetings in various-places for the purpose of tak ing the matter into serious consideration. 4 In some cities societies have been forme ! among them to emigrate to Liberia;and one of these, atN. York, has sent out an agent to examine tbe country and make report. Sudden Deaths.?The Wellsville Patriot says: ?"The town of East Liverpool has been the icene of two very sudden deaths during the past week. A Mr. Church, a Presbyterian preacher of New Hagerstown, Carroll county, Ohio, while an his way down tbo liver, feeling as though he was unable to prosecute his journey, got off at that }o\at and took lodgings at the "Black Bear." Mr. B, had not been under the hospitable roof of Mr. Peevers more than half an hour when he died. The other was a Mr. Gillivray, father of Mr. A. Qittivray, commission and forwarding merchant of Bast Liverpool. Of this sudden death we w ere jnly able to learn that Mr. G. was sitting at the ta ble partaking of a regular meal, Jwhen by some unaccountable accident he became choked with a piece of bee/. Medical aid was immedialely call ed in, but life yas extinct before the physician ar rived. Mr. Q. leaves a large family of children to moil m his loss. From the Philadelphia Inquirer. Before and After tha Election?Tho Kjiow ing Ones. ?? It is quite amusing, after the results or a great political struggle are ascertained, to discover the niany knowing one*, who suddenly make their ap pearance in the community. They may be f.und by scores, and if they are to be believed, they? mouths ago?pre&cted a'J that "has just occurred, even to the smallest figure. It appears, in some cases, that this information appears quite novel to those to whom it is communicated; but the know ing ones are not a whit abashed, and refer to their past vaticinations \vith the utmost complacency and confidence. Th.- .truth simply is that both parties have been disappointed?the one painfully, the othey pleasurably?in relation to the recent con test. Before the struggle of the second Tuesday of October, many of the shrewdest politicians of the Opposition frankly admitted, not only that the struggle would be close, but that {he chances were in favor of Gen. Scott. Pennsylvania was given to .him with reluctance, but still because the signs of the times were unequivocally in his favor. It is therefore an utter mockery, an empty piece of ! vanity, on the pnrt of the self-sufficient, to take to themselves the credit of having predicted with such extraordinary accuracy what has ju6t occurred. True, after the October election in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, the prospect became somewhat overcast. The heavy majorities in those three States were altogether unexpected; and although they were accounted for, in some measure, by the lighnoss of the aggregate vote, yet the effect was I disastrous. It operated injuriously in three ways. In the first place, it roused the confidence and stimulated the energies of the Democracy; in the second, it-intimidated and disheartened our own friends; and in the third, it induced thousands of the neutrals and the fence men to go over to the enemy in a body. These consequences were anti cipated, and hence we, in common with our con temporaries of the Whig press generally, made the most earnest appeals and devo:ed our columns al most exclusively to the business of the caiupi ign. Our great apprehension was inactivity, apaJiy and indifference on the part of the conservative portion of the community. And these, we venture to afiirm, even now, before the smoke of the bi ttle T has vanished into thin air, were the real causcs of the defeat. The result in the city of Philadelphia tellsthe whole story. We verily believe that there is a majority of six thousand of our fellow-citizens, within the limits of the city proper, who are opposed to the political doctrines of Franklin Pierce and his party; and yet, on Tuesday last, our majority at the polls was less than thirty-five hundred. If a simi lar condition of affairs existed throughout the State and the nation, the immediate cause of the disaster is plain and palpable. But why, under the cir cumstances, did so many American citizens re mains at home.' Why dfd so many falter in their duty? Are Whig principles less important now than on any former occasions? And is there less attachment now than hertofore to home industry and its adequate protection, to river and harbor im provements, peace and its triumphs of civilization, to progress, but in a spirit that harmonize with magnanimity and justice? We will not attempt to answer these questions at the present time. There is a season f' r all things, and with the wounds of the party, fresh and bleediug, it is neither wise nor well to say aught that may be regarded as harsh or hasty. Let us rather look over the ground calmly, discover the false steps if ;.ny have been made, and while applnudidg and commending the many who battled so manfully, remember that principles are far more important than men, and that we have duties to perform as well after as be fore an election. Row is William's College.?The names of four individuals, professingto be students in Wil liams College, ore given in the New York Express, as authority for the following statements. It is written under the date of October 30th. "On Tuesday lost, the students, as is the usual custom, applied for permission to ascend Greylock (as soon as the first snow appears upon its lofty summit, "they have always given the students liber ty to ascend and camp out.) This, to their sur prise and indignation, was peremptorily and ha-sh ly refused. It was then agreed, unanimously, to ascend without it; and at noon they ascended, with but few exceptions. On their return, on Wednesday, it was announced that forty-seven, supposed to be the ringleaders, were publicly ej pelled. A meeting of the students was immedi ly called, and it was decided to attend no recita tions till this unjust?nay. outrageous sentence, was retracted?and so the matter stands, no recita tions having been attended this week." The New York Times says on reliable authoritv, that the above letter, which presented, on the face 'A it every appearancc of being genuine, is a hoax. Emigration.?The German emigration of 1821 j numbering only 2,200; until 1330, there was but | one season that it amounted to 15000, In 1832 it rose to 24000; in 1827 to 34000, but fell in 1843 to 23000; the number then of persons who, during the decade closing with that year, went beyond tie seas in search of a better fortune, averaged a bout 19000 annually. From this time forth there has been a rapid increase in the extent of the emi gration. In 1844, Germany sent out, in round numbers, 44000 emigrants in 1845, 67000; in 1846 and '47, the famine years, more than 106,000, in 184S, '49 and '50, the years of revolutionary dis turbance and political proscription, from 80,000 to 90,000, and in IS51 something more thau 113,000. It is calculated that these emigrants have carried out of Germany, capital to the amount of S80,000, 000. As is known, Austria has contributed but slightly to this great movement, to which she has a double motive of opposition?her desire of set tling the sparsely populated districts of Hungary, Transylvania, and a politic fear of the eventually destructive influence on her despotic institution": of communications from settlers in happier lands to friends and relatives suffering under them at home. Democratic Regard for Mr. Webster.?Tran sparencies representing Mr. Webster in the act of assisting the Spanish officials in the execution of the fifty Americans in Cuba have been discovered in possession of a Loc* foco committee in Virginia. They were painted just previous to the Baltimore Convention, and were in readiness to be used against Mr. Webster, in case of his nomination. We find the above in the telegraphic correspon denceof the N^w York Tribune. The 'discovery' is in exact keeping with all the antecedents of the Democrats in relation to Mr. Webster, and is no ticeable only because it illustrates the offensive hypocrisy which at this moment characterizes their leading organs. 0"That man is a coward whotyranizes over wo men and children. If not a coward, he would choose men for his subjects; but show us a person who raises his hand against a woman, or abuses a child, and we will show you one who is afraid to face a man.

From the National Intelligencer. Death's Political Xiosao'n. That kindly and charitable Latin maxim wliich exhorts us not merely to spare the. dead, but if pos sible to speak well of them,"ii perhaps almost as wise as it is gentle. For there are many whose | virtues remain, to a great degree, unfejt till they are no more; while, on the other hand, there ore peo ple who can do no justice to the living So diffi cult is it, indeed, to judge men fairly while alive, I that a sagacious nation of antiquity (the Egypti ans) were accustomed (historians tell us) to hold regular Assizes of the Dead, where grave but no doubt indulgent men sat upon the departed, weigh ed all their conduct without passion, and assigned I the reputation which could not be fixed until then. I We imagine that these must have been tribunals | that knew, how to make large allowances for hu man infirmities, listened little to the voices of \-n\ y and detraction, and dwelt lovingly upon the good and great qualities. In such Courts what witness but must have hesitated to produce his rancors, to refuse giving up his prejudices, and to stand dis armed by death of every injurious opinion towards him who could harm him nomore? Nothing, in deed. can be more pathetically right, as to most men?for there are few in whom there as not much good, or at least much matter for strong hu man sympathies?than those mournful words ofthe poet: Of them who, wrapped in earth so cold, Nomore the imiiing day shall view, Should many a tender tale be told, For many a gentle thought is due. All this is true ot our common brothers of the earth; and of course still truer of such as a more eminent part in the conflict of human life has ex posed to many personal resentments. And accor dingly, out of that tardy compunction or those so lemn sympathies whith we have supposed as sure to act in those Eg)ptian trials, one still sees, at the death of great men, a sudden sense of their true merits seize upon their enemies themselves and turn obliquy into admiration and sorrow. Such was, some years since, the scene when Mr. Adams was all at once struck down, tidfore the nation's eyes, from that hitjh place in the public councils which he had so long filled, it a little combatively, yet ably, honestly and patriotically. Such was, far more strikingly still, the funeral spectacle at the death of him so long, in this country, from the very strenuousness of his public abilities and services, the foremost object of all love and hate, Henry Clay. Whsteverof odioum men had said of him wnile he lived, was cancelled by their praises and their tears over bis t mib. So was it the other day, in England, when the Iron Duke?that inflexible man who had, for so many a day, divided the reve rence i.nd the contumelies of the European world without seaming much to care for either or for any thing but his own idea of his duty?yielded at last to fate,the only thing to which he ever yielded. And at this moment, we have once moro the same con soling, if sad spectacles, of the posthumous justice which they, who had most denounced Daniel Webs ter, j're now (sincer-- at last) doing throughout the land to I.is memory, as a great and patriotic states man. It is easy to see that they will equally, by like encomiums and lamentations, expiate their in justice to U'infield Scott, when that greatest of surviving public servants shall die?a day of re tribution and atonement, however, which is yet, we trust, far off.
