He inquired ifthe Captain-General intended to stop the mails, Tke Captain- General did not answer directly, but said that the English and American newspapers had abused him and the government of the island very much indeed, and he had stopped their cir- culation. The Consul replid that that was an affair in which he could have no possible in- terest; but were the mails to be stopped? If so, he should keep them, and deliver the letvers himself. Perhaps the government might have a rigbt to stop the newspapers; but the Consul had been informed that many letters had not reached their destinations. He intended that those addressed to his countrymen should be treated with more respect hereatter. As may be imagined, the Captsin-General was slightly astonished, and more than astonished, at this proceeding. He was afraid of the British Lion, and he pacified him by promising that the Bri- tish Lion’s postal arrangements should be more PE hn rishMENTS renewed every day. Woreme IVER...

Reugr ron rut Poor Laporsr.—Cannot something be done by extensive employers and Contrastors, in this city, to guard their work- men trom the peril of sun stroke? The fear- ful number of eases of that character which have occurred here and in the neighboring cities of Brooklyn and Williamsburg, during the last few days—partioularly yesterday, when there was the number of fifty-four deaths registered with the Coroner—enjoin the stera necessity of ceasing from work, in places where the laborer is exposed to the sun’s rays, for at least two or three of the midday hours. If canopy or awning eannot be raised over the work so as to shield the operatives from the fierce and fatal beams of the sun, then. in the name of humanity let there be a cessation from labor during those hours when its effects are the most severe. To make up for this loss of time work might be commenced an hour or two earlier in the morning and protracted an hour later in the evening. But whether such an ar- rangement as this would entail a trifling loss on the employer or on the employed. is of little moment, contrasted with its saving consequences on the health and life of a fellow being. An African could not work safely under the in- teneely scorching sun which has pursued its fiery orbit over this city for the past four or five days, and to many unacclimated foreigners it is certain death. Let something, therefore, be done, if this weather continues, so as that our already high bills of mortality be not in- creased by cases of sun stroke at labor. In a week or two, or perhaps in a few days, all danger from this cause will have ceased; but in the meantime, let some such plan as we have suggested be generally adopted. As to the omnibus drivers, who are so much exposed, we can only express our surprise that themselves or the proprietors of the stages do not put tp over the driver’s seat a sort of temporary canopy or umbrella, capable of being moved from side to side at pleasure. The arrange- ment would suggest itself to the least inventive imagination, and we only wonder some such plan has not been adopted. Gentlemen em- ployers, do evince a little more care for the men whose labor is your wealth. Tue Lars ConcresstonaL Execrions.—There were two democratic brothers in the last Con- gress. of the name of Stanton—the one from Ten- nessee, and the other from Kentucky—and at the late elections the Scriptures, in their case, have been fulfilled—the one has been taken and the other left. The Tennessean was too progressive for Western notions in behalf of ocean steamers and the ebony colonization line to Liberia; andhe is left—at home. The Ken- tuckian expected, if re-elected, to “makea great deal of moncy,”’ and his constituents have generously agreed to give hima chance. Such are the ups and downs of politics.

His two ycars in the House may prove to be more in- teresting to the democracy and the administra- tion than his whole thirty years in the Senate. But let the brethren of New York remember the consequences of the Missouri squabbles, and profit from the example. In North Carolina, “Fatzer Abraham.” otherwise Hon. A. Venable, a talented and useful member, having in Congress taken strong ground against Cuba and “manifest destiny,” strong ground was taken against him in the turpentine country, and another demo- erat put up to run him off the track in his dis- trict ; but between them, in slips another whig. In this case we have a double warning—tirst, there is a warning to all democrats to be cau- tious how they trifle with Young America, evenin North Carolina; and secondly, there is the old apothegm illustrated, that ‘between two stools Wg fall to the ground.” Ah! bow important are such teachings of experience! And yet there is every reason to fear that the old split of 1848 in New York will be opened again in 1853, from the impossibility of persuading the reunited democracy to forget the spoils and dwell together in unity. Ah! me! A Coynecricut Covyry Fam—Barncm’s Prraivus—We clip the following from the New Haven Courier:— P. T. Burnum offers a list of premiums to he com- peted for at the fair of the Fairtield County Agricul- tural Society, at Stamford, on the 6th, 7th, and 8th of October, by ladies under twenty-one years of age. ‘There are seven premiums for horseback riding, ranging from $26 toa gold pencil, open to unmarried ladies under twenty one, from all parts of the State; three premiums for butter, three for cheese, three for bread, five for darning, and four for shirt making, which are to be competed for by the young ladies of Fairfield county only. No fee will be required from any person competing for any of the Barnum premi- ums. Young ladies intending to compete at horse- back riding will please send their names to John H. Sherwood, Secretary Fairfield County Agricultural Society, by or before the 15th of September. These premiums are very good as far as they go. Barnum is an enterprising man, and is doing some good in his day and generation.
