The News. ‘The election for State offices in Maine took place yesterday. The candidates for Governor were An. gon P. Morrell, fusionist and republican; Samuel ‘Wells, democrat and anti-liqnor law; and Isaac Reed, whig. Fifty-six towns only have been heard from. They give no indication of the result. As the election is a very close one, and Maine ia a spareely settled country, some days will probably elapse before we shall know for a certainty who is elected. The steamship Empire City arrived at this port yesterday from Aspinwall, with the California mails to the 1Sth ult., nearly 2 million of treasure on freight, a full complement of passengers, and late ‘and interesting news from Acapulco, New Granada, Gentral America, the South Pacific, and Australia: Her advices from San Francisco have been antici- pated by the arrival of the Northern Light on Sa- turday last. The news of the abdication of Santa Anna was reeeiyed at Acapulco with the }iveliest demonstra- tions of delight. We give elsewhere some details, taken from the revolutionary organe, of the progress of events there. Our New Granada files are dated at Panama, August 30, and Aspinwall Sept 1. The railroad at Panama was in good condition, but the freight ebargea on it are complained of as excessive. The health of the Isthmus was good. It is said that the rights of Americans resident at Aspinwall are often violated without any redress being had from the courts. Many foreigners out of employment and Many volunteers from San Francisco had sailed to join the Alvarez army and Col. Kinney’s corps. Gen. Mosquera was at Aspinwall. The Legislature of Panama had withdrawn the new shipping tax bill. The work of opening the New Granada canal was going on hopefully. By way of Aspinwall we learn that Col. Kinney had completed the purchase, for $500,000, of Mesars, Shepherd and Haley's rights in the lands granted them by the Mosquito government in 1839, 80 that he possessed this fertile tract—as reported—in addi- tion to his 1,700,000 acres Chontales, and was ikely to go on famonely.

Colonel was greatly grieved at the departure Greytown of his “courteous friends,” the mander and officers of the British war sel Buzzard. Nicaragna retused to apologise to Costa Rica for her late invasion, and r was imminent between them. We ara of the grand filib’ a, it is said, had asked Ki ditional particule San Juan. Costa Ri ney to assist herin her invasion of Nicaragua, and ra- mor says she had offered him the office of Governor of that republic when conquered by her with his aid. The Colonel had kept aloof from Walker's ne- gotiations with Castillon for an attack on Grenada, the capital of Nicaragua. From the South Pacific we have news dated at Valparaiso on July 80, Lima, Augnst 10, and Callao August 11. The Congress of Chile had transacted a limited business during the fortnight. The Senate had approved the estimates for the ensuing year,and the Deputies were discussing the bills. Banking * measures relative to the issue of bills and the ad- mission of shareholders on mortgaged real estate had not been settied. The measure of a railroad to Santiago was progressing. The line of telegraph from Santiago to Valparaiso was being repaired. Sixty Italian emigrants had arrived at Valparais General Blanco had tendered his resignation as Chi- Jean Minister at Paris. The establishment of a peo- ple’s Ubrary and theological seminary had been e-ti- mated for atSantiago. Two Chilean ships ond one British veseel had been wrecked on the coast. In the Argentine republic peace prevailed. Pra- sident Urquiza had opened the session of Congress at Parana. The exploration of the Bermejo river has been prosecuted with satisfaction. From Paraguay we Jearn that the difficulties with Brazil had been amicably settled. Urageay was disquieted by financial disorders. Mr. Marey had addressed an official letter from Washington to the Minister of Foreign Affairs in Paraguay, disap- proving of the conduct of Consul Hopkins in As- sumption. So Paraguay is friendly to the United Btates. In Bolivia, Pelzu’s son-in-law, Genera! Cordova, had been elected President. A military ofiver had been shot for the crime of pecalation of the public funds. From Peru there is little news. General Cosiilla had received a higher military rank. Don Domingo Eas had been voted a medal, naming him ‘The man of the people.” The guano trade from the Chinchas was very active. Trade had revived in Valparaiso. high, rating at $11 50 and $12. proved. Mr. A. A. Burlingame, of the firm of Burlingame & Company, of Melbourne and New York, has handed ve files of Australian papers. The latest dates are—Melbourne June 28, and Syducy June 20. The Melbourne labor market was very dull,and no prospect of a better demand existed. A ship captain had been fined £52 for bringing an e of one hunared and two Chinese passengers into port. The imports into Melbourne from the United States hed fallen off this year. There were a nomber of Americans at the Ballarat mines, and both there and in Melbourne the Fourth of July was to be doly celebrated by our citizens. General Sir B. Nicol, commander of the forces, was dead. We publish a fuil account of the lous of the American ship Whis- ‘Mer, on the King’s Head rocks, in June last. The Sydney newsis gratifying. At Melbourne gold old at £3.17. Flonr bad advanced in price. The tobae- o masket was firm. Ironmongery very dull. Seve- ral large Muggets of gold bad been found in the colony.

The proceedings of the convention were fully endorsed by the meeting last evening, which comprised twenty-eight individoals, black and white. A County Saffrage Association, subor- dinate to the State Suffrage Association, of whych Fred Douglass is the chief, was organized, with Dr: A. McCune Smith for President. An application was made yesterday in the Court of Common Pleas, before Judge Woodruff, on behalf of Alderman Briggs, of the Police Investigating Committee, that an order issue compelling Mr. Mackellar, and the other contumacious witnesses, to show cause why they should not be attached for con- tempt in refusing to testify before said committee. The Judge will give his decision in the matter to- day. The Board of Aldermen met last evening, but the transactions were devoid of general interest. A re- port relative to the appointment of bell ringers, recommending an amendment of the ordinance on that subject, and directing the Mayor to appoint three exempt firemen to each alarm district, was concurred in, An attempt was made to take the Comptroller’s communication respecting the offi) contract from the special committee, in order that the Board might act upon it, but the motion was de- feated. The Mayor was notified that the Board will procee J to file a vacant police clerkship on the 20th inst. After the consideration of several papers from the Councilmen the Board adjourned. The Board of Couucilmen had a warm and inter- esting time last night, and all about gas. The Com- mittee on Lampe and Gas reported against granting the Metropolitan Gas Light Company permission to lay their mains through the city. Some members wanted to postpone this report, and others wanted ‘to force it through. Fraud was charged upon some of the members, and thrown back with the usual amount of acorn. Councilman Haswell refusing to vote in obedience tothe Board, was charged with contempt, and was about to be proceeded against for such contempt, when he made matters all right by taking Councilman Conoyer’s advice to “back down.”” After some further discussion of a warm nature the whole matter was postponed. The Board of Supervisors met yesterday, and adopted the report of the Committee on County Offi- cers in favor of paying certain Census Marshals’ bills. The second Monday in November was us- signed for. the consideration of the report on the subject of increasing the salaries of the Judges of the Supreme and Common Pleas Courts, Surrogate, Recorder and City Judge. The gales of cotton yesterday embraced about 600 a 700 bales in toto, without change in rates, thorgh prices continued to be somewhat irregular, while dealers were again disposed to pause for the receipt of later foreign news by the way of Halifax. Flour closed firm at Saturday’s rates, especially for com- mon brands of State, which were in reduced supply. Wheat was tolerably active, and prices pretty well sustained; new Southern red sold at $1 80a $1 85, with a lot of mixed at $1 90, while white was at $1 90 a $1 95. About 7,000 bushels of new white Genesee, the largest lot of the season,sold for mill- ing at $2 per bushel; had it been sufficiently dry for shipment it would probably have brought a higher price. The California wheat sold on the spot, and to arrive, was received ina sound condition. We ex- amined a sample of it, which was really a supe- rior article. A sale was reported yeaterday at $1 97. Corn was heavier, and closed at 89c. a 90c. Rye was firm, at $1 14 a $115 to$116}. Pork was firmer, with a fair amount of sales. Sngars con- tinned firm, though sales were less active. The transactions made were at full prices. Coffee con- tinued firm, with more doing in Rio, at fnll qnota- tions, according to quality. Freights to Liverpool and London continued to improve for forward de- livery, the room in the veesels is diminished The crop of cotten coming forward at the South will be likely to keep up a good demand for tonnage in that quarter, while the shipments of breadstuff’s, provisions, Xec., likely to be required at Northern poits, will tend to sustain rates in this quarter. Proclamation of the Cubon Janta=-Loas of Funay but not of Resotuiion, We give clsewhere the graad expors of the Cuban Junta, of the recent plans, arrangement > contracts, hopes, failures and resolutions coa- nected with the proposed revolution in Cuba, projected and ended in the course of 1 They evince high purposes, great sacri considerable sagacity, a vast amount of indis- cretions and sacrifices, and a magnificent fail- ure. Tho objé@t of the'Junta, like Santa Anna in his abdication, is to prove that not its mem- bers, but somebody else, ought to be blamed, They are the victims of lochl divisions, indi- vidual ambition, and. misplaced confidence. They trusted their cause to an American chief, and they feel that they would have been just as well off io have managed it themselves, The trath is, the cause of Cuban indepen- dence has served in the United States, for the last ten years, to excite considerable public interest, and has alternately inspired hopes and alarms for the safety of the people of that island. Precisely the error that the Cubans haye committed over and over again, has been committed by their responsible advisers and directors in this country in the present case. Without expressing any opinion upon the con- duct of the chief to whom the Junta refers, it is obvious that the grand mistake of the revo- lutionists is to be found at this very point. The cause of Cuba must be entrosted to her own people. Itisthey alone that suffer the evils of oppression—they alone ought to be nerved to tho effort of revolution. The existing government has a right to enforce its laws, how- ever severe, and even to inflict its extreme, its arbitrary and inhuman punishments upon its own people in subjection. So long as the Chyis thus in submission, tyranny ever performs its legitimate work, While this isso, revolution against such a government may be sanctioned by justice, as it is by all the tradi- tiens of the American character. sub But this revolution must spring up and be ted by the Cuban people—by those who have cause to complain—whose tuterest it isto put to hazard ir “own lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.” Aid from without must be auxiliary. The Cubans mast not look to the United States for inceptive measnres or actual invasion--the United States must look to them for all this. If we render aselstance it should not be to Juntas and societies and to individuals, but to a de facto government, the ercation of those who believe they have aright to overturn the government de jure which op presses them, The right of revolution must bo determined by the measure of injury and wrong inflicted by the dominant power in the State, Compared with Europe we hold to easy rales on this subject. Governments with us exercise their powers by a frail tenure; and it is undeniable that the people of this country regard the present Cuban system as utterly in- detensible, But this is no coneern of ours. We have no right to intervene until those who are oppressed signify their determination no longer to submit. Prom the people of Caba in open rebellion—from the people of Cuba risen into power in opposition to the existing rule—do we derive the right to render them aid. They can repeal, by such an act they can open their y dir our neutral 7 law 5 thus bring us to their aid. It neither comports with their own dignity nor their future safety to trust the incipient arrangements for revolu- tion to American hands. By thus acting they sink @ cause which might otherwise be just and holy, to the level of piracy and freebooting. They would remove one foreign gdVernment for another, trusting to the hazards of chance to improve their condition, It is then no longer a struggle of the people of the island, oppressed and down trodden by a naked mili- tary despotism, but a continental invasion by third power, under which the Cubans are treated as auxiliary. This, in the language of the Junta, isa “ mockery of revolution.” In this light we view the details of the movement so elaborately narrated by the Jun- ta. Their failure, then, is not a misfortune, but a useful experience—a lesson full of admo- nition. Those who propose the great work of changing the form and the powers of a State from despotism to freedom have a dificult and @ self-sacrificing labor to perform. They are required to grope a long time in the dark in order to be prepared to appreciate the glorious light of liberty and independence. In this respect, what the Cuban Junta have done, perhaps, has qualified them to aid their coun- trymen hereafter more wisely. Their reliance upon the administration of Gen. Pierce was another grand blunder. That functionary did enough a year before they or ganized their plans to teach them that he woyld betray them as he had betrayed every- body who trusted him. It was unfortunate, too, that just at the nick of time the adninis- trationshad undertaken to prop up despotism in Mexico by giving to Santa Anna ten mil- lions of dollars for a little strip of desert, whose real value can be determined only by some Arab explorers. No matter, that project absorbed for the time the energies of the Ca- binet at Washington, and it is possible that the chief referred to may have had his ambition turned in that direction. At all events, as misery loves company, the Junta may find con- solation in the fact that the darling project of Gen. Pierce In Mexico has ended very much like their scheme of revolution in Cuba. Asa question of finance, upon which the Cabinet rests a large share of its glories, and upon which it was freely complimented by its negro allies at Syracuse, we have no hesitation in awarding the palm to the Cuban Junta. They have effected quite as much with far less means than what was expended upon the Santa Anna concern. There is probably this difference— that personally the Mexican tyrant is far bet- ter off than the Cuban heroes. M’uie Racuer anp tar Rep Repvsricans.— Aswe anticipated, M’lle Rachel declines to sing the Marseillaise Hymn. Ter letter is given elsewhere. M’lle Rachel’s excuse is the state of hor health. This is perfectly proper, and we bave no desire to go behind the record, except to commend the act as one of sound policy on her part. M’lle Rachel is a servant of the Emperor of the French. She is a socielaire of the Comédie Frangaise, and has certain duties and obligations, as well as cer- tain rights and privileges. She owes alle- giance to the present government of France, which has tabooed the Marseillaise. It is, then, good policy on her part to decline sing- ing the hymn, and thereby refuse to mix her- self up with any section of any party, native or foreign. Had Kossuth and other dis- tinguished foreigners been equally prudent, their positions would have been materially im- proved in public opinion, at home and abroad. We also publish to-day a letter from M. Ra- phael Felix, giving his reasons why he cannot lower the prices fixed for his sister’s per- formances. The gist of itis that M. Felix is the manager of a yery expensive company, and that he cannot afford to bring the luxury of seeing Rachel within the pecuniary ability of all parties. This is to be regretied, but we presume that the decision of M, Felix is irre- yocable, A Five Citance ror “ Youre Arnica." —Mr. P. B, Randolph (colored) has lately atrived in this city from a lengthened tour in Barope and Africa, and will shortly give the result of his observations, to the Young Africa party, in a series of lectures, Mr. Randolph thinks that unless the colored people immigrate and colo- nize they will become extinct, and he thinks that he has found, somewhere in India, the right spot for a new negro colony. Go ahead, Randolph, and if you will only take Seward, Greeley, Raymond, and all the other “ little ” and big “ villains” along, what a nice thing it will be for us and for them? India is better than Kansas, because it isso much further off.

Maxarroros.—The Governor of New Jersey is first in the field this year, and has issued bis proclamation for a day of public thanksgiving and praise—the Fourth of October next, Com ing immediately after the terrible slaughter on the Camden and Amboy railway, we think the Governor's proclamation is in rather bad taste, unless the Jerseymen desire to rejoice, like the Fejee Islanders, over the bloud of their victims. Decency would seem to demand a gencral fasting and penance day for Jersey, instead of thanksgiving and rejoicing.

Leicester, the reigning favorite of the “ virgin queen,’? having heard of the expected mar- iage between Elizabeth and the Duke d’Anjou, becomes very much interested in Mary, Among the Stuart pa- pers is found a letter from Mary to Leicester, offering to place him on the throne if he succeeds in liberating her. ‘A Roman Catholic lad, Mortimer, nephew to Paulet, governor of the castle, also has access to Mary, and vo- lunteers his aid to carry her off by force, Leicester brings about an interview between Elizabeth and Mary, hoping that the latte- may be pardoned. Bur- leigh, meantime, is pressing Elizabeth to sign Mary’s death warrant, on the ground of duty to the State. Burleigh thinks that Elizabeth is not safe while Mary lives, Elizabeth sees Mary. ‘The latter is spirited and prond—calls Elizabeth the fruit of adultery, and says other unpleasant things. Elizabeth indignantly re- @ manager, I must first of all contrive not to be short of my expenses, which amount to the round sum of three cand dollars per night. One of the newspapers in- ires why the public should pay here double or three times as much as they do in’ Paris or London to see Wile Rachel? This statement is not exactly correct. In Lon- don, the prices of admission are five dollars for orches- tra or parquette seats; thirty dollars for a private box, admitting four pergons. At the Metropolitan the prices vary from three to one dollar, . ta Paris, the prices are not so high; but it must be re- membered that the Theatre Fiangais is supported by the government, that the managers have nothing to pay ei her for the rent or the gas, a t, moreover, they a ‘tha: -receive the handsome sum of sixty thousand do! year. The last, not the least consideration, is that we are not exactly either in France: or in nd, but at. somewhat three thousand miles from the above countries: and that it cost something to bring over, so far, artists of reputation, without even speaking of M’lle Rachel her- self, to whom so man} how dp; offers were made to dis. courage her froin visiting the United States, RAPHAEL FELIX, Director.
