Nbgbo and Coolib Servitude.
—The Havana correspondent of
the New Orleans Delta, after ata-
ting that the Freaqh. ship Mala-
bar had arrived on the 11th Inst.,
Macao, with 475 Coolies for the
sngar fields of Cuba, that 90 had
died on the passage and 4Q after
their arrival, then proceeds to com-
ment on the sufferings and cruel-
ties and consequent destruction of
life attendant .on this Coolie slave
trade, and show that aftér' all, the
Coolies are not adapted to '.he la-
bor and condition of servitude to
which they are subjected. The
writer then remarks:
The natural instrument for Cu-
ban toil is the negro. He is brought
here from the moat degraded bar-
barism, made useful to himself, his
race and the world; elevated above
the. brutal state from which he is
taken—(if you please with vio-
lence)—it is his own fault if his
condition is not vastly improved.
Ton will never tfind in Cuba a
negra, from the day of his landing
upon christian soil to any period of
servitude in any class of toil to
which he may be or has been em-
ployed, willing fó return to the
homeland and its destitutioned deg-
radation. No such a thing has av-
er been heard of, alt hough offers
have been freqrteuily made, and in
various ways, with most tempting
considerations. They are happy
as a people, ahd they are healthy.
Wb. H SeWAbd.—The Albany
correspondent of the Day Book
says:
There never was a Legislature
so subservient to William H Ste-
ward as the presen', one. Every-
thing is made to conduce to hia ad-
vancement. To speak against him
to work aganst him, or to do an
act that does nnt ad vance his pollt
ical fortunes, is treason for a "Re
publican.'' It is believed by his
friends, here that he cati carry av-
every northern Btate id i860, ex-
cept California and Oregon) and
as this will elect. him they are al-
ready counting upon "good time
coming."
XIT A large German awociatiob
desiring to ttolonike in Mexico^
have sent fen sgebt to Washington
to conault with Seoor Mat* in
reference to the matter. The asso-
ciation is represented to poseen
large means. Sebo Mata took
the matter tinder consideration
and will imntediátely ootamunieate

Ame^ic.an officers jm thb Eu-
ropea war,-—The Paris corres-
pondent ol the Ijew York Times
writes:
Capt. Jerome Bonaparte, who
lutely returned, to France from a
Visit to hjs parents at Baltimore,
has been placed iu the most dan-
gerous service in the army. lie
will command in the Chasseurs d'-
Afrique, a body of light cavalry,
every man of which is mounted on
an Arab stallion of great s^eed and
eudurance. This body is divided
up and thrown forward in. advance
of the army in scouting parties, and
is employed in all dangerous and
rapid recounoissances. The cap-
tain, on arriving at Paris ten days
ago, left immediately for Algiers,
to join his company, from whence
he will most probably land at Ge-
noa, on Sardinian territory, which
is to be, on account of il« proximi-
ty to Toulon and Marseilles, the
future, base of operatioq* of the
French army.
I have been told that Major
Kearny, of New York, baa entered
the staff of one of the French gen-
erals of division, as a volunteer.-—
Major Kearney, i( will be recollect-
ed, distinguished himself in the
Mexican war, in which he com<-
manded a volunteer cavalry com-
pany, raised and equipped entirely
at his own expense.

George W. Kerdall a Candi-

nounccmeut card of Hon. G. W.
Kendall, as a candidate for Gover-
nor. This announcement, we are
assured, haa been made by the many
friends oi Mr. Kendall, and with-
out his knowledge. Geo. W. Ken-
dall, it will be remembered, hap for
many yeara been Proprietor of the
New Orleana Picayune, the most
popular paper in the South, and bne
which, probably, has done more
than any other out of tl^is St^te,
and perhaps within, in thedov^io^-
ment of Texas on iu first emerging
from the chrysalis state of a Re^ub
lie to that,of a healthy and prosper
ous State. Mr. Kendall haa for
some yeara past been a citizen of
Texas, and beeu engaged in agri-
culture upon his rancho, in- Cum )
county. A* regards his political
principles we know not, aaVe that
the Picayune haa always beén re-
garded of the Whig school; but we
have np doubt but ho .will .have
