Surely Commodore Arm- strong has some very strong grounds, which are unknown to the public, for parsuing a course #0 little calculated to raise the character of his country abroad, or to facilitate future negotia- tions with the Chinese. Mr. Reed cannot betake himself too soon to the scene of his labors. Whatever private mo- tives Commodore Armstrong may have had ia this instance, itis not the first, as our readers will remember, in which he has found himself at issue with leading American merchants at Can- ton; and though, no doubt, merchants are not always very safe guides, especially in matters wherein their interest is concerned, still, as our ing it cannot be aware of the enormous ex- pense at which the operations of the association are cartied on, or they would not have fallen into such a mistake, No eum that they could offer the prees would tempt it to forfeit the independence of action which constitutes its most valuable feature, and which it undoubiedly | would do were it to transact the business of in- dividuals, If the Corn Exchaage requisitionists deem it necessary to have daily market reports from the leading cities in the Union, they must do as the press does when if wants news—get it telegraphed to them at their own cost.

The Cuba plank of the Daltimore resolutions was thrown overboard, and the question itself is only hinted at ia the Cincin- nati platform, in some vague gammon about our supremacy in the Galf of Mexteo. The pledges of the prevent administration in relation to Caba | are of the most indefinite character. The Cincin- nati platform gives not one: the Ostend manifesto, dispassionately examined, will be found to hang ite committaliem upon the most unreliable of ifs; and the only thing in the shape of a pledge by | the present adminisiration in regard to Cuba, is &@ leller from Senator Brown, of Mississippi, stating that Mr, Bucbanan told him, just previous to the late Prosidential election, something about his ardent wish to weqnire that island. It may be that as the late administration promised much on this point and did nothing, the present one having promised nething may do mach. We advise the members of the late Cabioct not to be too fast in their efforts to claim leader- ship. Mr. Cushing will hardly convert Massachu- fetts to bis facile way of thinking. Mr. Davis had better define more clearly his position before he aspires to be the exponent of the South If he regards the acquisition of the Isiand of Cuba as important to the whole country, and indispon- | eable to the South, he committed treason to the South ard a betrayal of daty to the whole coun- try in laboring to prevent that acquisition when it could have been done without a war, and pro- bably without « price. Ata time when others, who bad created the resources, and by their eac- rifces carried the movement nearly to a success- ful issue, would not cousent to place him in the their labors in a cause to which he had contribut- ed neither money, nor effort, nor counsel, he made use of the official power he wiclded to op. pose the very cause he now assumes to advocate.

We advise him to wait and see which tide is likely to come iato power first before he pronounces, Governor Warxer's Kansas Isavocnat.
