The salute made to the Admiral of the Port after the return of the first was promptly noticed, and a suitable retarn made.

We canuot well go be. him} the dezial, expecially if an arrest has been really made. The Jamestown tailed for Key West on the 17th, to wait orders, Commoiore McCauley, on board of the San Jacinta, Commander Stribling, arrived the 20th.

We are all anticipatiag some aereet event to arise from this visit of Commodore McCauley. Pray Heaven that our anticipations be real- ized.

Know Rethinges a Spanish Point of lew. The Divrio ve la Marina, of Havana, of the 19th April, discusses in this wise the interesting question of Know Koth»pgism in ihe United Stutes Our New York eorrespondeats, whove opinions, as wo bave often said, we neither accept nor refuee in all par- ticvlars, generally breathe through the‘r writings a sen- timent of contempt toward the new party of the Know Nothings, thereia following the common impulse of naturaiize? citizens and of the press which represents them, W iating an’ excusing the impression mace under suc circumstances, we canno: witnal agree with them absolutely im sentimeut. The tendency of the party to which we are referring comprises no- thivg which substantially offends our rational instincts or interests The Spanish race differing in that re- *pect from the German and French, aad the sons of Ire- land, reckons only a very small emigration ia the neigh- boring country, participating or asptring to participate in politica! rights'in the new couatry which they have chosen for their permanent residenze. A few isolated cases in and about New Orleans, springing more from compulsory circumstances than from real aflectioa or deliberate purposes, do not succeed in modifying in the slightest degree our assertion. The Spanish race in all its branches, and moze especially in the old trunk, con- rerves too lively-the sent'ment of national pride to covet foreign tities. Consequently if wa neither desire nor posters the active sovereignty, which is now being dis- puted with the foreigners, we can look on this strife tree trom all prejudice, and judge of it dispassionately unde a peiut of view very different from that from which it ia surveyed by the other Earopean peopies. Treating the question on this ground we have atroady indicated toat the general doctrine of the Know Nothiag party deserves from us a conception much more favora le then ascverse. The dreams of an absolute cosmo- pehtaniem only exist in eccentric minds, for whom tho lessons of experience ate of no value. Diversity in forms with unity in mind are tho bese of every rational bormony, and the preten- sion of supplanting it by an absolute identity conduces only 10 engender confusion, by the bonds of an impossitle fusiou, It is good that every nationality, and every people, and every raco, lean to its own trad - tions, and preserve ita aacient conditions of existance, getting rid of whatever of hostility they conta, and cultiva‘ing with all their kind, friendly relations, éis- tated by mutual convenience. Such is the true centre towards which modern civilization gravitates, and which we ought to recognize for one of it) most remarkable benefits. If, therefore, our neighbors believe it conve- nent, and even necessary, to mako an effort to conserve i ji 4 asta af BaP Ree PE SATB AS omm dactctutions; we, ‘who neither diréct'y nor indirectly pretend to change them, will have no jest motive for disapproval or complaint.

Reading Railroad was in demand at an advance, Nearly six thousand shares were sold. Tae weekly reports of business on this road are wholly un- precedented, and give great encouragement to stock- heldere. The amount of coal transported is largely in advance of all estimates, and when it is considered that freighta are about twenty per cent in advance of those of last year, the comparative productivencss of the road can be easily imagined, The coal tonnage for Apzil this year wil! not vary much from 215,000 tons against 170,000 ‘tons fer the rame month last year, The local and other purines of the company this year has largely increased. Erie Railroad advanced one-half per cont on the opening price and closed firm at 50 per cent. It is reported that the gross earnings of this road for April will be large, Dut we have no data for an estimate. Tae receirts of the Central will, we understand, also figure up large. The bulk 0” transactions in stocks to-day was in Reading and Erie. Railroad bonds and State stocks were quiet, and the entire list of fancies were much neglected, At the first board New York Central bonds declined 14 per cent; Cumberland coal, 14; Harlem, 3g; Norwich ‘and Worces- ter, 11{; Cleveland and Toledo Railroad, 34; Erie Rail- road advanced }4 per cent.; Reading Railroad, 34.
