If the "Southern Delegate'' expects to dis organize the Democratic party by- publishing communications in the Tribune, we beg leave to assure him, be is "going into a very large held, with a mighty small hoe." He could cot hare devised a better plan for etrngth euing the party. Such falsehood, such sUiu , such abuse, will only tend to induce the De mocracy to diug to their principles and their ticket, with a firmness and tenacity that will secure a brilliant triumph for the party on the rcf jud Tuesday of next October.

She enforces regulations which vir tually compel the inhabitants to buy all the necessaries ' of life not where they can be bought cheapest, but from Spain, whatever their price may be there, and then raises duties even on the Spanish imports. While i the press of eld Spain complain of the inade ! quaey of agriculture there, while thev unre the uc-ceHsity of inviting emigration from the North of Europe, to the Peninsula, while Spain herself has to import provisions, she iusists upon supplying Cuba with flour and other articles of necessity, of course at her own prices.

Each was evidently une qual to its moiety of the work, having neith er proper storage room for the caUe nor for the proper quantity of coalr. The Niagara left cur shores so deep in the water as to ex cite misgivings in all who saw her ; and then we. were told that though the 'Agamemnon looked better, she was a ship of less tcnuagc. The paying ou:, the tackle" and the break, were proved with a success which the scien tific alone could appreciate. The speculation was that just now wc should probably have the Atlantic at its calimtt, which, as it turns out, has not been the case. To juigc Trcm the picture of the expedition as it sailed from our shores, the Agamemnon and the Niagara so filled with their huge freight that the gi gantic coils spread from the hold into every gunroom, gangway, and cabin, we were re lying to much on the favor of tbe elements, and laying ourselves at the mercy of their ca price. It is premature, indeed," to tay that we have hern beaten by the elements; but the next attempt ought to combine everv pre caution suggested by the past."

A very sad affair transpired at Princeton, near our city, on Thursday last. A Mr Daniel Elliott, who lives in Princeton, butchering beeves, and selling them in the neighborhood, hung himself in bis slaughter bouse. He was in au exceed- of tbe Democratic party.

Some branches of industry, as, for instances, coffee, are declining from this cause, while all others are suffering under the prevailing practices of governmental extortion. Under a system of foreign commerce, based upon reciprocity, the expenses of living in Cuba would be greatly reduced. The change would attract mechanical labor in which the country is lamentably deficieut The Flaves of the plantations fed on American flour and meat, a saving would be effected of millions of dol lars annually, which might be employed to extend the area of cultivation and open the rich and as yet untouched mineral resources of the island The people of Cuba pay an exorbitant price for their allegiance t3 old Spain. -ltnny?ranian. to X4UU. i lie mtnd and power ot time is concentrated on this great undertaking, and wind and wave will have to rise higher, and electric cables seem more of an impossibility for the ocean, than tbey have yet done, be fore the Atlantic Telegraph is abaudoned There is yel hope, and there will yet be more work and more scieoce, without faltering, to have that hope realized. ii jih an old the novel, the untried, .ind hence the eager ness with which he embraced the newest pn litieal opinion, and the readiness with which the chance was made when the alcss wa3 worn of the. old love, or some later project had cau ht bis fancy, and tickl.d hi? am- ! bition. subscriber in Fhrri-.!..

Ireland. A Hue of steamers has been established be tween Galway, Ireland, and the United States. The advantages claimed for it seem to give promise of success to its projectors and profit to the public. Among the advantages are the emigration and mercantile interest of Ire land with America; the position of Galway as a point of access, in the mott westerly part of Central Ireland, and at a point of departure tweuty-four. hours nearer than the English ports thus securing a quick packet service from' Ertglaud, and the establishment and in- j create cf an important IrUb trado .

It is highly important in its provisions, w hich is briefly stated thus: The port of .Nangasa ki, m the principality of Hizen, shall be open to American vessels to repair damages, and the procurement of all necessary supplies American citizens may permanently reside at Simoda and Hakodade, with liberty to supply the vacts of American vessels, and a Vice Consul m?y reside at Hakodade. The value of money brought by Americans shall be as certained by weighing the same with Japan ese money, (gold aud silver :sebues.) and six percent shall be allowed to the Japanese for the expense of re-coinage. Americans com mitting Tfiences shall be tried by the Auicii can Conjul, according to American laws, and Japanese committing offences against Ameri cans shall be tried by Jaj anese authorities and laws. All payments by Americans to be made in gold or silver. The Japanese offi cials arc to provide the Consul-Geueral with Japanese coin with which to pay for purchas es for himself or family. Japan admits thu right of the Consnl-Gcucral to go beyond the limits of seven ri, but asks delay iu the use of the right, except m cases of emergency, shipwreck, &c,, and to this Le has assented The treaty was signed at Simoda on the 17th of June, 1857, and proclaimed as ratifiied bv President Buchanan June 30th,' 1S5S, and all its provisions went into force on the 4th inst.' We have no doubt that most impor tant result will follow this treaty in a com moreiul aspect. It opens Japau to American enterprise, and gives us a foothold at Simoda and Hakodade which will be of . great use in facilitating American operations among tbe Japanese people.
