A word to the wise de sufficient. Whe Invasion of Cuba—The Proclamation of the President. ‘The day pidly passing away, for the world at lerge—as it has already passed away for Ame- riea in particular—when the pol ical dogmas of Great Britain are to be taken as the universal Jaw. England has ceased to be the sele arbiter amongst contending nations. Herold supremacy is gone. Not so much, perhaps, because her power has declined, as because other nations have over- taken her in her march, and now stand in the seme rank with herself—her equals and her rivals. France, Aus:tia, Russia, the United States, are firet-rate powers. Their voice will always be beard, on great questions of continental policy, upon their respective continents. The interests of humenity demand it—interests which have ecused to be the mere spoil of English power, and the mere prey of English cupidity throughout the globe, and which must now be arraigned for final judgment before the grand jury of the world. Hereefter, the cry of the oppressed will be heard and respected. National atrocities can no longer be perpetrated in a corner. Spanish galleons, laden with treasure, can no longer be stopped with im- panity, and robbed upon the high seas by English navies Capitals can no longer be sacked and bornt, with unpunished audacity, as Copenhagen was burnt by English squadrons. The cause of ‘one is the cause of all; and the cause of all dis- poecs all to adopt the great principles of common sense and national equity, as the true basis of in- ternational law. We shall have no more orders am Council, blockading a continent with a hand- ful of ships. Such outrages are already of an an- tediluvian order of thinge, which has passed away. The world would not tolerate their resuscitation fer a moment. Most of the ex cathedral dicta, which England, partly by sophistry, and ebiefly by force, has sought to incorporate in the fmternational code of Christendom, have been settled against her; and, amongst these, her dicta touching the rights of neutral flags, and the right of eitizens of any government to relinquish their allegiance. The English doctrine was, ato the } (Fi important branch of our mail service, and | Jatter point, ‘* Nemo potest cxuere patriam ” The guns of the United States, the Hornet, and the Kssex, andithe rifles of New Orleans, (rather co- gent arguments in their way,) laid this matter at rest. Such, at least, since the wi: been the unanimous sense of nation. But for the recent proclamation of the President, we should have considered this point ares adjudicata—a thing disposed of—scttled— not open for any further discussion. But, amazing as it may eppear, a proclamation is issued by the President of the United States, sup- ported by a cabinet consisting almost entirely o! lawyers, which threatens not only to np up these established decisions, but to introduce a practic aa relation to them, utterly hostile to the knowa feelings of the people. It is our boast, that the ar of 1312, has people of this timid and odious policy of European governments, | with all their miserable machinery of passports, espionage, and domi ilary visits, constitutes no part of our system. Here men are free. Th °y ean come and go when they please. No tnquisi- tion steps them at every shore and at every boun- dary line, and, with @ timorous dread of misehiefs er a rapacious exercise of power, demands of them the purport of their errand. If men wish to leave this country, and adopt another, they have an un doubted right to leave it. Their government has ne right whatever to pureve them, and to thrust her jurisdiction upon them. She has never pre- tended to exercise that right. She has no busi- pees with their motives, unless those motives be an avowed infringement of her laws. We do nor say that an organized and unprovoked attack upon a friendly neighbor, if instigated by the govern- ment, is not a violation of a treaty of pence ; and we do not eny that » treaty of peace is not the law of the land. But we put it directly to the Republic, and to the National Intelligencer, whether assistance, rendered to a suffering peopl act of conspiracy andon the brink of r pe euch an attack upon a friendly power as to war- vant official interference * If the United States government lent her troops, her stores, or her fleets—if she lent her co-opera- thon officially, in the most minute particular—ehe would certainly be amenable to Spain, and to the world, for the violation of her honor.

Do they imagine than any adminie- tration could hope to survive such a policy ? More- over, what was the creed and what the conduct of our revolutionary chiefs? Where was Kosciusko born? Where Lafayette, the friend of Washing- ton? Which of the colonies gave birth to Steu- ben? But we weary with such arguments. We detest, from the bottom ot our souls, that miserable cant— that wretched hypocrisy, in which governments are so accustomed to dress themselves, when they have neither reason nor policy with them, and when, from a want of courage or a want of princi- ple, they dare not avow the real motives of their conduct. Government Mats ror Catirornta anp Ona Gox—OPBLIGATIONS OF THE ConTRactors.—The mails brought by the government mail steamer Falcon, arrived at New Orleans on the 4th inst.; that portion of the letters for New York and the North arrived at our post office at meridian on the 13th, the earliest possible day they would have reached the city by any steamer, had she come direct. By the terms of the government contract, this steamer was bound to go to New Orleans, by which arrangement telegraph communications reached this city on the 6th instant, thereby placing the whole country in possession of the California news at least seven days earlier than would have been the case had the steamer not delivered her mails at New Orleans. ‘The public at the North are being misled in regard to the delivery of the mails at New Or- leans. They seem to forget that these mai arrangements are intended to benefit alike all sections of the country ; that there is as much pro- priety in the South and Southwest receiving their letters early, es those residing at the North and East. Should the Postmaster Genera! assume the respensibility of ordering all the southern letters to be brought to New York, and from there carried by land back, the whole line down to New Orleans, he would encounter an uncompromising opposition. The present arrangement is a wise and just one, and its operation does net delay the receipt of letters day, and does promulgate by telegraphic means the important items of news to all parts of the country, days in advance of the mails by entire water communication. The Falcon has not failed in the delivery of a single mail promptly, as per contract; and it is no cause of complaint against her that she is not at all times present when the uncertain arrival of the Pa- cific steamers may have taken place; nor 1s there the shghtest cause of just complaint that the Ame- rican Consul at Panama, refused to deliver the mails to transient vessels, when he so well knew the previous irregularity in the arrival of the Pa- cific steamers with the mails, rendered it impossi- ble for the Falcon to arrange to meet them. ‘That there was cause for such irregularity, the public are, to some extent, aware; but that fact furnished neither ground for complaint against the Feleon nor the Amencan Consul. The Pacific line consists of three steamers.— These vessels are on the line; but it must be borne in mind that they are not performing the service re- quired by their contract. If they were, each trip would end at Oregon instead of California, requir- ing such an amount of time as to prevent them reaching Panama so frequently, to be sure; but ex- tending, as the contract requires, the benefits of the steam mail ahke to all American citizens on the Pacific coast. ‘The largely increased size of the Atlantic line from New York to Chagres, has delayed their com- pleuon ; but the time is near at hand when these veesels will be in service; and that they will justify the high expectations of the government and the people, no one for a moment doubts, who has seen them, These vessels are double the size of the Pacific line, and are, as we have before told our readers, built with an especial reference to war purposes. We see it stated, by the New Orleans papers, that Captain Hartstien, of the Falcon, went from Chagres over to Panama, and guarded the trans- mission of the gold and the mails to Chagres, not- | withstanding the fact that the contract under which | the Falcon sails, only binds her to deliver and re- erive the mails at Chagres, where the Pacific line are obliged to receive and deliver them, thereby evincing an interest not usual among commanding | officers. But enough. Our object was to state facts that the public might rightly understand the ies that they might not be misled by those, if there are any such, whose interest it isto discredit all that the government has, or may attempt to do, in sus- taining the great plan of steam mail service in this | counuy, Bro Annest row lected, thet an article has been pepers. stating the disappesrauce of an express agent or runner. vamed Hull, who carried off about $500 in money. entrusted to him by diferent individuals, In- formation was obtained yesterday morniog, by ofl cer Mondell, that he was lurking in this city, and thet « had been directed to the Brooklyn Fost-office, for him, the day previous Armed with these foots. the officer took up his station within t succeeded in from Boston.

A Terripte Accrpent at Campen occurred on Saturday afternoon last, in which one man was in- stantly killed, and several others severely injured. A new three story brick building, owned by Timo- thy Newell, in consequence of a defective founda- | tion, suddenly gave way while the workmen were ed in plastering the parlors on the first floor, tely overwhelming them with the tons of brick and mortar of which the building was com- posed; not a vestige of the walls being left above round. ‘The whole neighborhood was immediate- fy alarmed, and by the vigorous efforts of the by- standers the bodies of the laborers were exhumed from the mass of ruins, being four in number. ‘Levi Cook, colored, was already dead; It.
