WASHINGTON. Purchase of American Arms by Foreign Governments. Senator Sumuer’s Views on the Cubana Question Unchanged. -“ Manifest Destiny of the West Indies. Canada a Desirable Acquisition for New England. WASHINGTON, Dec. 28, 1869, Senntor Sumner’s Views on the Cuban Quese tion Unchauged—Annexation of the West Indies Ouly a Question of Time—Vanada a Desirable AcquisitionThe Alnbama Ques don! Inad Ready to Renow Negetiation. ‘There is wuchority for saying that the position of Senator Sumner on the Cuban question ia un- changed, Having his attention drawn to-day wo a despatch from this city in a New York paper, setuing forth that within a few days he had ekpressed views which would indicate a change in hia opinions about Cuban mdependence, Mr, Sumner said tt was the first he had heard of it, If the administration Was about to change lis policy toward Cuba he said he would like to Kaow tt, 30 that he might be pre- pared for It, The Senator says all his information from Cuba is to the effect that the insurrection is growing weaker and is near Its close. He has seen nothing that would lead him to change the opinions he has already expressed on that subject. it is a mistake to suppose that Sumper opposes the recognition of the Cubans on the ground that their constitution, ax he alleges, is not pronounced in favor of freedom to the blacks. He is notanxious: for the annexation of Cuba to the United States on any terms, “Tbe Cubans,” says Mr. Summer, “don’t speak our language. The mass of them know very little about our customs or our Institutions. They would not be an intelligent acquisition, and i cannot gee that they would be valuable in any respect.'’ Mr. Sumner thinks we wiil get all the West india islands sooner than we want them, and that we should neither purchase them nor assist in wresting them from the /owers to which they belong. From this it may be inferred that the Senator is opposed to the purchase of St. Taomas, and also to leasing the Bay of Samana. Like all New England men, Sumner ig anxious for the annexation of Canada, That, he says, would be @ valuable acquisition, because 1t would be an Intelligent one. The people speak our language and are faminar with our institutions. Wish regard to Cuba, however, Mr. Sumner is not likely to change his position; for if other reasons did not exist to prevent him, the pecaltar stand which he took on the question of belligerency tn his Alabama claims speceh would stand in the way. Senator Sumner is highly pleased with the character of the recently published Correspondence on the Alabama claims question. He thinks the administration has stood up to the high water mark of his speech de- jivered when the Jolnson-Clarendon treaty was rejected by the Senate, It was well known to tye Senator at the time that the instructions of the State Department to Mr. Motley were in accordance with the sentiments expressed in that speech, and hence he sat calmly under the govere criticium of the British press as well as a certain portion of the American press. Mr. Sumner thinks the British are in a better humor now than they were last spring. ‘Then, he says, they acted like painted savages; now they are moilified and, he thinks, ready to reopen the negotiations. The disposition of our government to wait for what Mr. Fish terms a ‘favorable opportunity” for reviving the negotiations has, in the opinton of Mr. Sumner, had a good effect upon Great Britain, It bas made her more anxious to have w speedy settie- ment, because she feared«that delay might result in our discovering the ‘favorable opportunity”? to be about the time England was involved in difficulty with some of her nelghbors. Mr. Sumner is satisfed that the negotiations wul be reopened at an early day and that they will be conducted in Washington. Heavy Purchases of American Arms by the Russian and Turkish Goveraments, European governments are going very extensively into the business of purchasing arms tn this coun- try. Lately the Russian government obtained from Colt’s factory in Connecticut 100,000 rifles of the Berdan pattern, and it is said thaca further pur- chase of an equal number 13 being negotiated, Not long since Mons. Blacque, the Turkish Minister, bought 250,000 Springfield rifles for the Sultan, 200,000 of which have already been sent to Constan- tinople, the balance soon to follow. in connection with this curious fact it is said that either the Rus- sian or Turkish government, or both, are negotiating for the purchase ot a portion of the Harper's Ferry property recently sold by our government to some private capitalists. Their object tn sepuring a part of the property is said to be for the purposes of re- pair shops or factories. The tact of such large quantities of arms being procured here by foreign governments has given rise to speculation as to What they are needed for just now, Is Turkey really going to war with the Khedtve, or has Russsia aa [dea of peppering the “sick man” once more? The Navajo Indians Conquered. The Indian Bureau has ofictal reports from the Navajo agency stating the Indians have received their annuity goods and presents of goats and sheep from the government, which has had tue effect of strengthening the ceiations of peace. Tho California and Oregou Boundary Sur- vey. Mr. Daniel G. Major, United States Astronomer and sutveyor of the boundary between California and Oregon, bas arrived in Washington with his Hinal report of this important survey. The New York Commercial Navigation Com- pany. Wt is said that internal difficulties exist in the Commercial Navigation Company of New York, which are likely to lead to the defeat of the bill re- cently introduced in Congress for its benefit. The action of the foreign steamship companies tn refus- ing to carry the mails at the reduced rate of postage makes it desirable thatthe work should be under- taken by American steamers. It the company re- ferred to was organized, or there was a prospect of its speedy organization, it is admitted by the Post- master General that it would enable bim to be more independent with the foreign steamship companies. As tt is, however, it is feared the petty quarreis of those interested in the proposed American steawmship company will lead to its dissolution. Tue Now York Post Office Investigation.

Meantime the Stock Exchange has assumed jurisdiction over the controversy regarding these goid transactions, and asserts the right to de- termine the same by 4 compu.sory arbitration. It is not to be forgotten that the transactions were with the plaintii! aud Pardee, as equal partuers, aud that the piaincut is not and never was a member of we Stock xchange; aid it is idle to pretend chat ail tne Interest of one of these two equal partners 1m these gold transactions caa be finally determined and set- Ued by a compulsory arottration, without jeopardiz- ing and materially affecting the interests of the other partnee (the plainti) in the sane. On this ground—and it seems to me asolid apa substantial one in law and equity—the piaintid has sougut the interposition of this Court to protect hin. by 1ajuae- tion, against the interimeadling with Bis riguis of a self-coustituted tribunal possessing no rightful jurisdiction over him or his property. 1 do not see on what principle the continued protection of this court cau be deuied to the plainuit. As is well contended by his counsel, we lave no more authority to turn him over to the stock Exchange as the place where ne must seek his redress than we have to banish him from the soil of the State. His property cannot be reached, against his will, but by due process of law and through the regulariy const- tuted judicial tribunals. The stock Kxchange ww a voluntary association of individuals, unknown to the law as a court of adjudicature, and, without discuss- ing the rights or powers which it may or may not have acquired as between its members by their agreement or cousent, 1t can receive no countenance from this court in any attempts to stretch its author- ity, either directly or mditrectly, through the medium ol a copartnersinp, over persons or property witch have never been voluntarily submitted to its control. Still less can we sancuion any effort, however indi- rect, to oust this court of ita lawtul jurisdiction. The ancient landmarks of the judicial tribunals can only be removed through the regular form of constivu- Uonal amendment.

New York: Leypoldt & Hout. When ‘Problematic Characters,’ to which this is @ sequel, first appeared we expressed the opinion that the work was a greet one, and the perusal of the present volume has fully coniirmed suca opinion, its indignant and eloquent protest agains: tyranny, its graphic depiction of the corruption of the (er- man nobillty, ita Keen analysis of the human cha- racter and its vivid pen paintings of scenery, com- bine to rivet the attention of the reader to one of the ablest fictions of the century. If it does not fascinate, as the writiugs of Victor Hugo do; if 1% lacks the vivid description and the almost -painful earnestness and intensity of the great Freackman, its eflect upon the human mind &, nevertheless, more lasting, because it treats of great social and poliucal questions in @ more natural and philosophic style. And jet, in spite of its greatness (aud wd readily admit that ww os grea), to those who beiteve in Christianity a8 a divine element, the work canaot fail to be laid aside with mournful dissavistaction. If it embodies a brilliant argument agains! the des- potism ol a privileged class, the seif-styled “rulera by divine appoiniment,”’ the reasoning is in behuif of Human License, and not tn behalf of Human Liverty, It 1g the plea of pagan rationalisin agatust the restraining tenets of the Coristian fattn. hat which igeminently great may also be emmnentiy bad, ang this work ia both great and bad. its greacacss dwells iu its wonderful construction, in tis genious argument, which aimost conceals the hollowness of the theories advanced, and in the skilful grouping of characters, Its pernicious tendencies are to be found im the promulgation of ideas destructive of an eniightened s ociety—theories whose putung into practice would destroy the grand edifice erected auring nearly nineteen hundred years, and plunge the world once more, and possibly irrevocably, into the abyss of Roman paganism. For such we can tind uo sympathy. We can reconcile political liberty with restraining law. Curistianity 19 not Incompau- ble with even @ less stringent sociai system than now obtains. If we examine the psychological reasoning of Spielhagen we Und that it embodies the docirine that the soul dies with the body—or, rather, sleeps eternally. Not even the cousoling hope of psycho- panychism 1s afforded us. A person dies, and f ever afterwards it is ‘aight, aboriginal, eternal night.”’ ‘This is the reasoning of these pagan puiuvs- ophers, who hold that the Nirwana of Budeha is eiidiess sleep. The doctrine ts repulsive to the Spirit Of progressive Civilization; It 1s Lhe assa, of social and political liversy. AS a navural result of holding such view the work throughout contains the very essence of materialism. Nature is every- thing; nature’s God is nothing. ‘Ihe ideai jove Which aniinates the bemg of Dr. Oswald Ste, though impossible of reaization, is yet as broadiy material as the passion can be rendered.

Stein, it is none the less true that realization, which gives possession, would satiate and disgust ta @short time by tts materialism. [t ts no wonder, then, that the whole life of Dr. Stetn, who embodies all the ideas of Sptelhagen, 18 miserably unsatisfac- tory. If we sympathize with him 113 with the sym- pathy begotten of another's suffering in spite of his errors of thougnt and acuon, We trace nls career with ineifabie pain; and when he falis behind the barricade fighting for a political idea whose triumph would curse the Human race, and ia borne moriaily wounded to a room in the Loiel, we weep over bis dying form ratner because of that which he coud have been than because of that which he was, And 30 with Melitta.

Is there anyth) more Utopian, more Ideal, than the philosophy whica men call materiaiism, as applied to nature aad to the creations of nature? Does it afford happiness to those who believe in tts doctrines’. Nay, is it not impossible to realize the grand resuits it promises? Tne work ends with Melitta en- Joying earthly felicity, and we cannot resist the tnpression that she toes uot deserve it. Her ‘aula are many and her virtues few.
