It omits to state, how- ever, that the smallest value of the bills so issued was $60, and What, therefore, they did not go into general cir- Galation as they would have perhaps done had they been @f the vaiue of ten or twenty dolla: Littie blame ifany ean becast upon the banks for having contracted their discounts, because the money they beld was deposited with them subject to draft, and they knew not the hour when they might be called upon to refund.

It was asked of the secretary of one of the largest banke of this city, ‘ To what cause be attributed the financial pressure?” He at once replied: “ The state of the ex- @hang2s,” which is an effect of the tightness of money, md cannot therefore ve the cause; besides which, during the lost two or three weeks exchanges have ruled con- siderably below par. { know of no country that offers so brillant @ progpect for an able fiaanciér, possessed of Bore capital, a8 Cuba does at this present period.

They are to enjoy the civil rights of the free. ‘The persons who contract for tho Africans will have & vo- Mable responsibility as to the treatment of their subjects, er those they take into their service, which the govern- ‘ment will enforce, to pay $25 per head when thay re. eeive them, and a monthly salary of $5 for males between ‘tho ages of eight and fifteen years; fomales of the same ‘age $3; $6 for males over fifteen years, and females $4 of Same age, which payments are to be made six months in advance, Tho rules and regulations are entirely in favor ef the Africans, and almost preclude the possibility of @ny one being willing to come under such restrictive obli- gutions—being de facto master under worse than slave bonds to the nogro, and all the government sympathy on By the Spanish steamers. prowl of our vsteaees ‘who have roused such an official spirit of emulation 4m abuse and dotraction on account of the Prosident’s mes- fae and the future acquisition of Ouba. fe have at Iaet.a genius in our midst—Don Francisco Domeneche having invented an instrument by which to determine the precise quantity of limato be used for a given quality or strength of cane juice, to cleanse and jelarify it for the boiling and granulating or oryntalization.

It is said that the slaver was destined for Cubs, and after being some months on that const, unable to enter, had reso!ved to try Porto Rico, and vot sufficiently underetanding the East Coast, bad blundered on the rocks during the night. It is, on the other hand, asserted that she was originally destined for Porto Rico, and that those interested in the landing of her cargo had watched for four or five days from the heights for her coming, and tbat they had then despaired of her arrival, and ae soon as they ceased watching she hove in Bight; but failing to receive the signals from the [shore na cersary to guide the commander’s movements, he con- cluded it best to run her aground, and that on, the laud ing of the Africans they would be placed out of fthe reach of the government as far as possible. The number of Af- ricens is variously computed; we have heard it said 600, and we have also beard it extended to one thousand.

GREAT DESTRUCTION OF LIFE—TERRIBLE SUFFERINGS. {From the Post, March 26.] Mr. Samvel Dunbar. a passenger from Havana on the steamboat Karnak, ich arrived at this port at one o’clock this morning, has given our reporter the details of a terrible oe nk off bd coast of Jamaica. It Sones ‘that the intelligence of disaster been made public before the closing ofthe ‘walls thet the news arrived from a port on the south of the Island, a short time before the sailing of the Karoak, ant Mr. Dunbar accidentally came joto posession of the main facts, and what we state reets solely upon bis authority. The British war steamer Jaereur, which wa? living at Jamaica on the Ist inst., received orders to set out imme- diately on a cruising vovage, and directly sailed from that port. On the night of the 4th inst, she struck a hidden rock, to the northward of Jamaica, The Pumps were im- mediately manned and kept working until daylight, when it was discovered that the bang! was rapidly gaining, and tbat it would be impossible to keep her up but a short tims The captain ordered a raft to be constructed, and to this raft were attached the two boats be onging to the vessel, and the men, sixty in number, al! went aboard, with ich scanty provisions as they were able to secure from the tinking wreck, ‘A heavy gale cet in soz after the men took to the raft, and they had not been out above two hours when ten men were swept overboardjand drowned. Ail efforts to rescue them were hopeless, the men had all they could do to prevent being wacbed away after thom. The captain secing it was useless to cling longer to theraft, took nineteen men with him in the ema'ler boat, and the the mate remaining twenty-nine into the larger one. It was contidered useless to attempt to keep together, and the caytain eaid they would each make the best of their way to land, without reference to each other. In a short time the boats were separated by the wind, ond the larger boat, containing thirty men, has not been heard of since, and is believed to have been lost, with all on board, ‘The little provisions the men on the mat! boat had taken with them were soon consimed, and the wretched party was subjected to the double suffering of cold and famine. At last, when all were completely exhausted and perisbing, the boat was driven to a port on the southern coast of Cuba, and the entire party eurvived. The government immediately sept out two vessela to cruise in search of the missing boat; but their search bad proved fruitless. Joshua R. Giddings on the Higher Law. The Hon. Jostius R. Giddings, ex member of Congress from Obio, and ambitious to be the next Governor of that State, delivered a lecture Monday evening in Clinton Hall, before the Young Men’s Christian Union. The subject was: “The Higher Law, the only Proper Basis of Human Go- vernment.”? The audience was more select than nu- merous, Mr. Gsprvas was introduced by Mr. Richard Warren, nd was received with demonstrations of applause. He said that if his name had reached them at all, it was be- cause a humble man had, in a humble manner, at- tempted todo bis duty. Me had not intended to deliver lectures, but having received an invitation from the Young Men’s Christian Union, he had gladly accepted it, for he wished to address himself to the clergy and pro. fessing Christians of the land. The theme announced for the lecture—The Higher Law, the ouly Proper Basis of Human Government”—was a self evident proposition not requiring argument. But in fourteen States of the Union that proposition was denied. When their own fF statesman (slight applause) declared in the Sonate of the United States that there was a law higher than human vernment, he was denounced throughout the land. Tho igher law was immutable, just, eternal. For ite evi- dences be pointed to all animate and inanimate nature. The whole science of botany was a manifestation of this higher law. So wasthe law of gravitation. The inven- tions in science were illustrations of the higher law; cor- responding precisely with the laws that ‘an the physi- cal world, are the laws that govern moral world. These laws were as deducible from facts az those which yng the physical universe, Some men in this country la that slavery is not per sean evil or @ wrong. The slave is compelled to act, not according to his own will, but. to the will of the master. Judge Ruffin, of North lina, on the trial of a slave owner for the murder of his female slave, said that a slave was one doomed, in his to live without knowledge. He ‘Mr. impress that definition onavery minis. juage that can define the low man, or of that divine who justifies slavery. (Applause.) He would like to im- press it on ministers, doctors of u nd infidels; and bets lecturer—theso are ali about the same. bog 3 the members of the Christian Union, ‘was the first person, as chairman of a committee in the Congress of 1774, who declared that man bad a natural right to life, liberty and ore and the Continental Congress declared that they hel rath as self-evident that al! men were created equal. The government was consti tuted on that law, and constitution itself declared that no man should be deprived of lifs, liberty or property, without duo procoss of law. the parent had ly departed from the great law of the Creator. He would like to get at those clergymen who hold that slavery is not an evil per #. Ho told the circumstance of a Rev. Mr. Slicer having wit- nessed one morning, ou Pennsylvania avenue, the sad procession of a crowd of recaptured ranaway slaves, and while all eyes but his were moist, be walked up with bland and smiling face to Slatter, the slave dealer, and extended to him the hand of friendship, while he also rebuked Charles, one of the slaves, for attempting to regain his liberty. Next day, on the assembling of the House, Biicer, who was chaplain, raised his hands to invoke benediction of Heaven; and as he did so, his (Mr, G.’s) colleague, Mr, Tilden, took up his hat and’ put it on; and while Slicer commenced to pray, Tilden commenced to Dlaspheme; while Slicer asked Heaven to bless members, znd bleepiemien asconded to heaven, together, and and bi ten ven an had the most effcacy there he (Mr; Giddings) hever found out, (Applause.)

Throughout the nation attempts were mado to supprese such facta and prevent their reaching the cars of the nation. The slave trade in the District of Columbia was not, as is supposed, abolished.

Manca 26.— The People vs. James St-phens,—Tho Court room and passages leading thereto were densely crowded at ap early bour this morning; and the greatest anxtoty was manifested to ascertain the fate of the unfortunate man, whose trial had lasted three weeks, It was rumored that the jury bad found the prieoer guilty. at ten o’clock the Judge took his seat upon the bench, and short. Wy afterwards the prisoner was conducted into Court by Mr. Sheriff Kelly and the Depaty, Mr. Murray, who har bad charge of Stephens throngbout the trial. His litle child and eister and niece (Mrs. and Miss Hanns) wer soon by bie ide, The jury then entered, and their solemn steps and worn and thougntfu) countenanoes foreshadowed the painful ro Sult of their deliberations. ‘Mr. Vandervoort (the Clerk) called over the names of the jury, and put the usual question to them—Gentlemen, have you agreed upon a verdict? ‘The Foreman—We have. ‘The Clerk—Jurors, Jook upon the prisoner; prisoner, look upon the jurors. How say you, gentlemen, ig the’ prisoner at the bar guilty of the murder and felopy charged? ‘The Foreman—Guilty, Mr. Cushing asked that the jury should be polled, which being done, they all answered in the affirmative. The District Attorney—May it pleaso the Court, I now rise to perform my last duty in this painful master, and move for the judgment of the Court upon the prisoner. Mr. Ashmead wished to say that there wasa decency which should be observed, and he was proceeding to oom, ment on the haste manifested by the District Attorney, when ‘The Court interrupted him by saying that he was not going to pronounce sentence now. Mr. Ashmead—There are reasons why it should not- There are exceptions taken to many of the rulings of the Court and to the charge; and there is another grave mat- ter—no less than that of a tampering with the jury— which would be brought before the Court at the proper time. He intended to moye for an arrest of judgment and for & new. trial, ‘The Judge—Gentlemen of the Jury, the Court will now adjourn to 11 o’clock on Tuesday morning, when it will meet for the purpose of pronouncing sentence on the prisoner, The District Attorney was proceeding to address the Judge, for the purpose of repudiating the assaults mado on him as a public officer, by the counsel for the prisoner, when summing up. He felt the painfulness of his position when asking a jury to send a fellow being to an early grave, The Judge said that this was too solemn an occasion for | the Court to allow any discussion which is calculated to qeate excitement, The District Attorney snbmitted that he was not excited, but that he was entitled to the opportunity of repelling those attacks, The Court did not understand the coungel for the pri- soner to make any comment but suc as he had a right to make. ‘The District Attorney eaid ho had been charged with a oul. of e The Court again interrupted the District Attorney, by stating that he did not so understand the coungol for the | prisoner. The District Attorney then moved for an order to commit the witnesses James Hanna, Sophia Hanna, Muria Hanna and Isabella Hanna (Bennett) for perjury. Mr. Ashmead (rising with impetuosity)—May it ploase the Court— The Judge—Mr. Ashmead, the Court does not mean to grant the motion at this time. The Court will now adjourn to Tuesday morning, for the purpose of pro nouncing sentence on the prifoner, avd for any othe purpose that may be necessary. The Judge announced to the jury that they were ¢ischarged forthe term, and in consideration of their labors and attention on the pre senttrial he would see that they should be excused from attending the next term of the Cirenit Court. The prisoner sat for some time conversing with his counsel, Messrs. Ashmead and Cushing, surrounded by hus sigter and niece, Miss Hanna, and bis child (Bella) still clinging to her unhappy father. This little creature, about seven or eight years old, it will be recollected, was examined as a witness for the defence, and comported herself with childlike bearing throughout the whole trial. It wasonly now, when she saw men around moved to tears in sorrow for her father’s fate, aad in pity for her lone condition, that sho began to realizo the fact that something horrible had occurred, and she, too, wept for the firet time. Stephens heard the verdict without a viai bie motion of a muscle of the cpuntenance, and atter taking ap unaffected leave of Mrs. and Mies Hanna, left the courtroom with his daughter Belia, and, accompanied by Sheriff Kelly and his deputy, retarted tothe Tombs, The greatest order was maintained throughout the court room during this protracted trial, and much credit ig due to the ofiicers in attendance for their courtesy and the facilities which they afforded the public, the couneel and the press.

MISCELLANEOUS. The recent call of Dr. Hoge, of Prince Edward, says the Richmond h, to become assistant minister of Dr. Spring’s Presbyterian church, in New York—a call which, it is announced, he has accepted—rominds us that the Empire pd has drawn largely on the South for some of the best pulpit talent in its borders. The late Dr. Alex ander, of Princeton, the most eminent man in the Pres- byterian church, was from Virginia, and Dr. Hawks, the reat Episcopal divine, is from North Carolina. Rev. Dr. Parks, the late eloquent and excellent minister of Trinity church, was from Virginia, and so were a good many others distinguished in the Northern pulpit. None of these men had any crotchets about them; they were all men of sense and ‘etion as well ag learning. Rev. Mr. Wheeler, pastor of the jona! church, South Dartmouth, Mass., will dissolve his connection with that pastorate some time next month, ‘The New Jersey Methodist Episcopal Conference, in- cluding all the churches ofthat denomination in that part a@fthe }, South of the Raritan river, and of a line di- rectly across the State from that States next Newark Conference, emb1 the Methodist churebes in the rest ofthe Buate and part of New York, will meet at Haverstraw on April 6, Biehop Mclivaine, of Ohio, who has returned from a European tour, met on bis’ arrival o Ones avery era tl recwwtion Stem the charoh and clergy ef Rev.
