Hopes are, however, entertained, although 1 know not upon what grounds they are founded, that this dread sentence will not be carried into effect. There are Creoles of this island residing im your city, who are believed to be traitors to their country—spies in the pay of Spain. I know the names of the suspected parties, and only re- frain from giving them publicity, and thus placing them upon a pedestal, a mark for ‘the slow, untiring finger of scorn to point at,” until I shall have some further proof of their complicity with Spain. For the present, | content myself with bidding them beware. ‘The 10th ivstant was the anniversary of the day of the birth of Isabel Segunda, Queen of Spain, a gala day amongst the Catalans. There were three royal salutes fired during the day—a grand levee and besamanos at the palace in the morning, and a very large dinner in the evening. The only lady present at the latter was her Excelenza, the wife of our Captain General. The French and English Consuls General occupied the seats of honor on the right and left of the Captain General. There were two military bands on the Plaza de Armas, who per- formed chiefly Creole airs, until 10 o’clock ; I passed the remainder of the evening with a friend, who resides near the palace, and we heard a military band there perform. ing dance music until midnight, although I believe there was nota bail that evening So much for Spanish taste in musical matters, As there is net any intelligence of importance this morning, I must crave your forgiveness for burthening your columns with the following translation from the Gaceta of the 10th instant, which exhibits in a strong light the mental calibre of its editor, and proves how little worthy such a man is to enjoy that greatest of hu- man blessings next to health—great anti glorious liberty.

Hoytsvitte, Aug. 30, 1855. .Sin—The Washington Union having republistied with editorial approbation, the following article from the Mont- gomery Advertiser, I ask a place in your paper for a briet reply; not because it has acquired ‘any greater respecta bility from its insertion in that paper, but because hss thus secured # wider circulation :— All true democrats, in and out of the State, will rejolee to bear that Col, Clemens has been defeated tor the Legislature by @ decisive majority. The Know Ni papers every where published his electioneering letter with a flourish of s, and predicted the most auspicious results to their cause trom his participation and interest in the canvass. By one of his ad- re he was styled « ‘wens but full fledged American eof Madison bave brought down "the pride of place,’’so that he can no longer soar aloft even above the soil of his own native county. 1. Clemens |s now in bis right position. The jury of hls wietnage have rendered a Just and righteous verdict in his case —8 verdict in strict e with law and the evidence. May be long live in the private station him by bis fel- low citizens, and may every over anxious ‘aspirant profit by his example as a politician. One of the owners of the Advertiser is a federal office holder. There was a time when the interference of go- vernment officers in State elections was looked upon with Jealousy and distrust, but since it has become one of the cardinal principles of democracy, I suppose I ought not to complain that no exception has been made in my favor. I have the right, however, when I am the subject of comment, to insist upon’ the publication of the whole truth. T'was beaten, it is true, but when I commenced the canvass, the American party in this county did not number over 300, out of a yotag population of nearly 2,100, ‘The administration party thus had a clear majo- rity of nearly 1,500. In two weeks this majority was re- duced to less than 800 against the American candidate for Governor, and to 150 against me. I staked my election solely and entirely upon the principles of the Philadelphia platform, telling the people plainly that I did not want a seat in the Legislature, and only, & candidate to vindicate what I believed to be correct principles, unjust- ly assatled, and which no one else in the county would undertake to defend. If the result, under these circum- stances, was a verdict of condemnation against me, my enemies are welcome to make the most of it. In the same article from which the above extract is taken, Iam charged with being a disappointed federal office seeker, The Union wisely omits that portion of the charge ; not from any higher regard for me, or any Mite consideration for the truth, but because the ‘ashington editor knew, what probably the Montgomery editor did not know, that J in my possession letters from the President’ which would prove the falsity of the accusation.

The match was for $2,000, two mile heats—Flora Temple in harness, Hero to wagon. It being generally understood that the cars would not run to the course on that day, the livery stables were literally besieged during the morning by applicante for vehicles, and everything suitable was put in requisition, The consequence was, that a more select elass of visiters was within the enslosure of the entreville on this occa- sion than we have witnessed for many a day. That por- tion of the community who are neither ornamental nor useful to a race track, and who always go up in the cars, were effectually debarred in the present instance from participating in the aports of the day and the indulgence of certain vicious propensities. The railroad company are quite right in refusing to run their trains with pas sengers of this desoription. The profits they receive will hardly compensate for the losses they might incur from the disorderly conduct of these individuals. [t will also be of great benefit to the proprietors of the race tracks in the preservation of their fences, &c., as these car riders seldom pay for anything, and generally gain admit- tance by foree of arms, A word or two about the horses. Of Flora Temple it may be said that she is the very best trotter that ever trod the turf in this country. She has been re- markably successful, having won more frequently than any other trotter, taking the number of her races into consideration, Im that respect she has been more fortunate than even the far-famed Lady Suffolk, who, be- ing often trotted under adverse circumstances, way fre" quently beaten. The time made by Flora on several oc- casions, proves that at one or two miles she never has had an equal on the turf, not excepting Lady Suffolk, whose quickest recorded time she has surpassed; and there is no doubt that if the second heat in this race had been three miles, instead of two, the time of the famous Dutchman—(7:323,), which has never been beaten, would have been eclipsed. She came out fresh in 4:57, which would have allowed ber over 2:36 for the third mile, which she could have performed with ease. She seems now to have no limit to her speed, for, as 4iram Woodruff, ber driver, expressed himself, whenever he called on her, she had a little more to spare. Hav- ing beaten all comers, she will probable now have to lay up for a time, mk Hero is one of the quickest pacing horses that this coun- try has produced. He is as remarkabie for speed as for endurance; and is so particularly distinguished for the latter duality, that it is considered égabtful whether any pacing horse can be found ejull at long distances. Some, however, are of opinion that his ten mile races with Prince, two years since, ha' Judice, and that he is not will be, again to hia powers Still, owever, 0 Hero of 1 ‘operated to his pre- quite up, and nev revious to that time. confident is the owner of Untiring energies, that he offered to against the celebrated mare Poca- hontas—who beat him last June, mile heats, in 217 — for $5,000, to go a distance of five miles. After his defeat by Flora to-day, he offered to mateh him against her for a single dash of two miles, for from one thousand to ten thousand dollars. A race between him and Pocahontas at five miles would be a great event, and one that would test the capabilities of both, The betting was very heavy on this race, Hero having the call at one hundred to seventy. Aa pacing is known to be quicker than trotting at short distances, many were induced to stake their money at these odds on Hero. The backers of Flora, however, ‘knew her ror. of endur- ance—that she ‘would perform the last half mile of the heat aa quick as the frst—and believing that ahe would outlive Hero at a killing pace, backed hier freely. | Her owner was so sanguine that he expressed the opinion “that she was fit to trot for a man’s life—was never 10 fine, and could not lore.” He was correct in his conjec- tures, What a happy man Jim McMann must be—the owner of the two fastest horses on earth, Flora Temple and Pocahontas! But what he will now do with them none but himself can te! The weather was delightful, and the track all that eould be desired. Now, then, for the race: Hire Heal.—Hero won. the pole, They got, the word allel, and went off at a rapid rate. Mr. Spicer pulled back on the turn, and gave the to Fora, ed mare irty- showing that he intended to trail for atime. The passed the quarter pole two lengths ahead, in th seven and a half seconds, andthe half mile pole a littl further in front in 1:13; bof going steady. Hero lay behind around the lowerturn and up the homestretch, allowing Flora four lengths to the score. Time, 2:28. Going stound the upper turn, Flora seemed to increase her speed, and Hero fell off a few lengths more; ani the backers of the mare, under the belief that Hero could not keep up with her, offered one hundred to fifty that ahe would win. Spicer made no effort to shut up the gap until he passed the half mile pole, when he opened the horse for the brush. Right well Hero responded. He closed on Flora rapidly, and was at her wheel as she swung on the homestretch. Ins hundred yards more he was even with her; but there he seemed to falter, and jcer was seen to use the whip. At this moment an ac- cident happened to the breeching of Flors, and she re- duced her She appeared to be trotting on three legs; and before she recovered Hero had the heat. Time, 4:59: The Inst mile was done in 3:30; Ax soon as Hi- ram reached the score, he declared that the accident alone lost him the heat; and assured the backers of Flora that she could and would win the race.

He, however, lay ather wheel around the lower turn, and was pulled out at the three-quarter pole for the struggle home. It was soon, however, observable that Flora was too much for him, and at the drawgate he was taken up, and Flora, relaxing her speed, came to the stand a winner of the heat, in the unprecedented time of last mile being in 2:29. Hero been able to have kept up the contest to the score, there is little doubt but that the mare would have made the heat at least two seconds ‘The backers of Flora now besame wild with ex- without a hero to take it.

She was still in front at the half mile pole, m 113%. On the lower turn Hero made a burst and took sides with her, and the struggie for the lead was exciting in the ex treme. The mare, however, beat him a length to the score—time, 2:28. This appeared to be the end of the contest. Hero gradually fell off afterwards, and at the half mile pole was one hundred yards behind. He was then taken up, and Flora came from the three quarter pole to the score on a very alow jog, making the beat 44,taking 2:69 for the last mile, The following ix a summary :— TuURsDAr, Oct. 17—-Match $2,000, two mile heats.

Frupay, Oct. 19—6 P. M. ‘The stock market was considerably depressed this morning. The effect of the Atlantic's news is quite visi- ble to-day, and we may expect to see it working gradu- ally from this time forward, The position of financial affairs throughout Europe is anything but satisfactory, and the truth of our remarks relative to the ultimate ef- fects of the war, wil, before the lapse of many months: be realized. The enormous production of breadstuffs, andthe demand for consumption existing on the other side of the Atlantic, may, fora time, prevent any disas trous results, but it can ‘only be a postponement; the evil day can only be put off. We must take our part in the great financial struggle which is just commencing among those nations more directly engaged; but it may not be this year, or within the next six months, As sure asthe war continues, we must be drawn into the great maelstrom of financial and commercial revulsion. It may be well not to lose time in preparing for the contest which the commercial nations of Europe are already en- gaged in, Measures have already been adopted in France to secure @ supply of gold at any cost, and the Bank of England cannot look on indifferently and see its bullion drawn away. Ifa rapid advance in the rate of interest will not arrest the outward current, some- thing more stringent must be done. For the moment supplies of specie from this side have become much re: duced, and this will only increase the difficulty in Fng- land, It is possible that the governments of both Great Britain and France may look to us for gold, and buy it here at any price, Trade may, for the present, not require apecte ahip- ments. This would prevent an accumulation in our mar kets, but in view of the causes at work throughout Europe, any increase in our specie basis should net be used for the promotion of speculation, or for an expan- sion of business in any shape, We should, by contrac- tion, endeavor to weaken as mueh a4 possible the force and strength of the approaching crisis. We can in a great degree neutralizean operation. If we are induced to expand our crelit system, because large exporta- tions of breadstuffs are for the time going on, without looking at the effect on our European customers of a drain of their resources by the expense of war on one side and short crops on the other, we shall feel seriously the reaction, and lose ten fold more than we can gain by the unusual demand for our breadstufls. There is nothing to complain of in the present position of our internal affairs, and it is therefore most important that we should, by @ sound and legitimate course of action, prepare ourselves for the time of trial, for it must surely come. An escape is utterly, entirely out of the question. It would be dangerous to believe otherwise, We should not te lulled into a feeling of security by the existing quiet in our affairs, or by the numerous evi- dences of prosperity which meet us on all sides. It is in our power to preserve in a great degree this prosperity, but it can only be done by strictly confining our opera tions, both financial and commercial, not only to the most moderate limits, but to those of the most substan- tial character.
