expected, will surpass in grandeur and mag?
nificence ouy that has taken place sinco the

handling their machines daily, to prepare
for tho forthcomiug struggle. Wo learn
that a chango has been made in tho mode of

Tho latter J*a^s ho took pains to inform
embarrass tho administration by holding
office under it, aud that ho would resigu tho
positiou of Pacific Railroad Commissioner
iu a month or sooner, if Grant wished to
make a change before that time. Up to
this time, Graut knew nothing of Blair's
holdiug an office under Govornmeut, but
when it was brought to his notice in this
way, ho immediately ordered his removal,
donying even tho privilege of voluntary re?
signation. Tho same duy that Gen. Frauk
Blair, of tho Federal army, was thus gra?
ciously removed, General Longstreet, of
tho Confederate army, was appointed to a

STANDING UP TO "DECODE."-The Augus?
ta Press gives an accouut of two darkies of
that city who crossed over a day or two ago
to Hamburg to fight a duel. Arrived on
the spot and about to take their positions
with navy revolvers, a shrewd old negro
present, after examining the challenge and
acceptauce, called a halt, remarking, "Dem
dar papers ain't fix up 'cordin' to de code,
and dis dam foolishness is 'bout to git some
nigger in jail;" whereupon the belligerents
broke up the fun and returned to the city.

A very distressing affair recently occurred
at Columbus, Ohio, at the residence of a
prominent citizen. Tho mother of the
household gave a nursing-bottle filled with
milk into tho hands of her three year old
child, with instructions to food the baby,
six months old, lying in tho cradle, and
soon after left tho room. Tho child did as
directed, but soon after took it away, and
tho baby, not satisfied, commenced crying,
wberonpon tho child dashed tho bottlo upon
the head of the babe, killing it instantly.
When the mother returned, tho babe was
dead.

WHERE THE SPECIE GOES.-It seems that
John Chinaman is getting all our gold and
silver. Every steamer leaving San Fran?
cisco takes out hundreds of thousands. The
last ono carried 8823,000. This baa boen
going on for many years. Specie goes to
China from nil parts of tho world, but never
returns. It was so with silver boforo the
finding of gold iu California, and now gold
goes tho sumo way.
Accompanying the recent report of Ad?
miral Hoff on affairs in Hayti was a state?
ment of persons living within tho lines of
thc rebel forces under Domiugue relative to
barbarities practised upon prisonors. Thero
woro 109 of theso prisonors shot, ton of
whom wero women and one a child. Their
mnuuer of executing thom was most revolt?

According to Profossor Nordenskiold, of

CUBA.--A Mr. Charles Mccormack, for
several years master machinist of the Paejfco
Principe, and Nouvitas Railroad, makes a
statement to the New York Herald, whioh
'we condense as follows: The special force in
Prinoipe is about 3,000 men, well supplied
with arms and ammunition and a few field
pieces. Tho colored troops-a regiment
that had formed a part of the garrison-had
deserted. Operations against the insurgents
or rebels were confined to forays. Tho
feelings of the natives were entirely with
the rebels. The iusurgent force around
Principe amounted to 7,000 men, whilo
8,000 men moro guarded the line of the
railroad. The rebels are enthusiastic, but
bndly supplied with arms aud ammunition.
General Quesada was rccoguized as chief in
command. Tho plantations had all stopped
work, the slaves generally seeking protec?
tion iu tho towns; but large numbers had
joined tho rebel forco. The war is carried
on as a guerrilla war; meanwhile organiza?
tions by battalions aud regiments, and in
drill, is being perfected. Tho informant
states that the feeling is very bitter, and the
rebellion will continuo to spread.

THE GERMAN ELEMENT IN THE UNITED
STATES.-From a recent article in tho New
York Herald, wo learn that tho entire Ger?
man population in this country, counting
iu those of German descent in the first
generation and their offspring, still retain?
ing tho language and habits of their pa?
rents, is from 10,000,000 to 12,000,000, with
a votiug powor of perhaps over 1,000,000.
There is New York city with more German
inhabitants than any city in Germany, ex?
cept Vienna aud Berlin. There are proba?
bly not four cities in the fatherland that
have a larger German population than
Philadelphia, and we have more cities in
this country containing over 30,000 German
residents than perhaps the whole North
German Confederation, excepting the old
capitals and the centres of trans-oceanic
commerce. Tbcro are about as many po?
litical journals published iu tho German
lauguage, daily and weekly, in this countrj
as in all Germany, ami twice as many ol
these papers here have a circulation ol

CRESWELL IN 18G0.-A standing radien

aud his friends is that iu 1800 he accept?e

and breaking up tho Government, and tba

that Mr. Creswell, their new Postmaster
General, was an active supporter of Breck

GREELEY FAVORS GENERAL AMNESTY.
The debate in tho House, yesterday, gave
hint that Gen. Butler's committee is abo
prepared to abandon the business of pe
diing out amnesty, aud to bring in a coi
prehensive bill for the removal of politic
disabilities. We trust the indica-Ions mi
provo correct, and that General Grant mi
bo enabled to begin his administration wi
the general amnesty, which a statesmi
would have sought to offer, when his pred
cessor was making frantic speeches abo
hanging traitors four weary years ago. X

TUc Slave Trutlc.
Notwithstanding all the efforts which have
been made by modern civilisation to put an
end to the slave trade, it seems, as fast <>.?
repressed in one locality, to make its ap?
pearance in another, and sometimes ita. a
moro aggravated form than ever before.
Thus wo find that tho attention of the Bri?
tish Parliament has lately been called by
Mr. Fowler, ono of the members of the
Houso of Commons, to what he alleges is |
tho systematio enslavement of Caffre ohil- j
dren by the Boers of the Transvaal Repub?
lic, by whom he assorts that 0,000 Caffre
cbildreu are now held iu slavery, tho result
of raids carried on against hostile tribes.
The enslavement of these children is de?
clared to have been effected under circum?
stances of great atrocity, aud to have been
iu contravention of tho treaty acknowledg?
ing the iudependeuco of tho Republic.
The '.Boers," or "Boors," is the designa?
tion of thc colonists of thoso Dutch settle?
ments in Southern Africa, which were es?
tablished in tho beginning of the seven?
teenth century, when the Netherlands wero
tho ruling mar?timo power. lu ISM the
Cape colony of the Boers becamo a British
possession, though the Boers have never
beeu reconciled to tho change. Thc Caffrcs
have long ago beeu n subject of dispute be?
tween the Boers and the British, the latter
taking sides with the Caffrcs against the
colonists, who regarded them as treacherous
savages. The emancipation of tho negro
slaves, ill 1833, induced tho Dutch farmers
to seek a diff?rent location, and their migra?
tions finally ended iu tho Va al country,
where they founded, iu thc Southern part
of Africa, what is called tho Transvaal Re?
public, which occupies au elevated table
land, aud contains an area of moro than
30,000 square miles, and also tho Orange
River couutry, somewhat smaller. What ii
said iu the British Parliament about the en?
slavement of Caffre children, and tho atro?
cities practiced by the Boers, must be taken,
of course, with due allowance, for tho fad
that the British and the Boers in Africa arc
old enemies, and that, it was not till thc
Caffre war of 1851 taught the British Go
vernmont thc necessity of tho united actioi
of tho entire white population, iu order tc
cave Southern Africa from European ci-?li
zatiou, that wiser and moro conciliatory
counsels towards tho Dutch begau to prc
vail.
! Whatever may be the foundation for th(
allegations in regard to tho Transvaal Re?
public, it would seem, by disclosures fron:
I other sources, that Africa still carries on
within herself, that trade in slaves which
from the earliest records, has boen tin
principal trudie in that country. A recen
report read at the annual meeting of tin
Euglish Ladies' Negroes' Friend Societ;
fiives somo frightful details respecting tb
internal slave trading on the East coast o
Africa. A Mr. Meuon, of the Island o
Reunion, who has beeu engaged in pro
meting what is euphuistically called "Afri
eau emigration to tho French colonies,
says that ho lately saw a depot whero SO
negroes wero exposed for sale. They wor

som? of them were prevented from stray
ing by a forked stick of wood attached t
their necks, and others were chained tc
gother in parcels of twenty. Mr. F. Sau
ter, a German missionary, says that "slav
tradiug is going on iu Kordofan and Ter.
gole, and on a largo scalo in Galabat, (net
tral territory between Sennaar aud Abyi
sinin,) where thousands of Gallas are sol
and smuggled through the Egyptian terr
