CAPTURE OF A. SLAVER BY THE UNI-TED STATES BRIG DOLPHIN. The United States brig Dolphin, latent. John N. Matlltt commanding, arrived at Key West on Sunday, the 22nd instant, from the coast of Cuba. A letter to the Journal of Commerce says: " She sailed from Sagua La Grande on the morning of the 21st. At daylight made a sail ahead standing on the same courseas the Dolphin. During the day had gained on her sufficient to discover her to be a suspicions vessel. After firing several blank cartridges, all of which were unnoticed,sent a shot across her bow, which produced the America* flag "t her pai/;; but .-he still continued on her course, when another shot from the Dolphin, which took effect on her fore rigging, made tion.

The following telegraphic despatch informs us of the sale arrival of the slaver at Charles-ton : "CHARLESTON, August 27.—The brig Echo, of Baltimore, has entered this harbor with three hundred Africans on board. She was captured live davs since off the north coast of Cuba by the United States brig Dolphin, | and was brought into port by Lieut. Brad-ford." The Dolphin was to sail from Key West for Boston on the 24th. The difference in the name given to the captured vessel, arises from the fact that her name was formerly Putnam. Echo was on her stern, but had been painted over. .J W. HOWI.KTT. I>. i>. s. J. F. IIOWLKTT. DENTISTS, RE-ft II. .1!f-K«KY it CO., FACTORS AND ,..,.., nts.

The following article from the Louisville Journal, in reference to the right of assess-ment ol a tax upon Government employees, as maintained by the Washington Union, with the sanction and approval of the Presi-dent, wc commend to the perusal of our rea-ders : "The Administration of Mr. Buchanan seems to be adopting, as its model, the cele-bratedCabinctotCharlesIJ, popularly known as the Cabal, and distinguished for having first invented that system of political bribe-ry and partisan corruption which became more obvious some years afterwards, when Walpole held the official seals of England.— Tho Washington Union, which keeps the conscience of Mr. Buchanan, and fulminates to the faithful ot his party the precise times when his Majesty intends to sneeze, that all may govern themselves aocordinly, has come out openly for the violation of that law which enacts thlit every officeholder shall Certify under oath that no part of his salary has been abstracted for political tithes. The Administration organ regards the levy ol a tax upon all persons employed by the Government so judicious and proper that it would make the refusal to pay the assessed [From the Charleston Murcury."] The Slaver—Her Crew and Cargo. The real name of the captured brig is the General Putnam. These letters are partially erased and covered over by those of the as-sumed name Echo, and would doubtless have been restored, had success crowned the enter-prise in which she was engaged when taken. She is of Baltimore build, say 280 tons bur-den, and, it is believed, was formerly a pack-et in the coil'ee trade between that pt Rio. On the 6th of March last, she cleared from New Orleans with a captain, two mates, eight seamen, a cook, steward and one pas-senger. On the 5th of July she shipped a cargo of 455 slaves on the west coast of Af-rica, at Kabenda, situated in latitude 5 30 south, longitude 12 20 east. It Ifl in Lower Guinea, in the southern part of the District of l.oango, and not far from the river Congo or Zaire. These slaves were purchased in a circuit of ;"i00 miles, and assembled at a bar-racoon near the point of shipment. The brig set sail with them, and in forty-seven days made the trip, reaching the point of destina-tion on the morning of the L'lst instant. One is a Greek, one an Italian; some of them are Portugese, some Spaniards and some English. Some of them talk about New- York, but none now admit that they are Americans, or have a whereabouts in this country. These snugglcrs are a desper-ate looking set of fellows. Under the laws of 1819 and 1820 they will be tried for their lives as pirates sailing on an American bot-tom under the American flag. They were committed to jail on Saturday afternoon.— Their trials will take place at Columbia, S. C, before His Honor Judge Wayne. Circuit Judge, James Conner, U. S. District Attor-ney, prosecuting officer. Tho Court begins to sit the 4th Mondav in November. The law of 1819 and 1820 will be found in another column. Being curious to see the cargo and arrange-ment ol the Echo, we obtained a permit from Dr. W. C. llavenel, the Port Physician, and with one or two others accompanied Lieut. Bradford i n a small boat from the wharf. Upon clambering up the side of the brig a strange and startling sight presented itself: a deck covered with native Africans in a state of complete nudity, with rare instances of a uarrow strip of rag an inch wide around the waist. These people were seated lor the most part with their legs stretched out flat, or drawn up in front, or doubled up; some squatted on their feet and hands. A few more standing about and a few lying down. None were tied or fastened in any way. The majority were very young, apparently from eight to sixteen years of age, some younger and some older ; scarcely one, however, over twenty-five. Someof them were able-bodied, good-sized and in good case; but the greater pat half-grown children only, weak and worn. Many were much emaciated, and showed plainly the effects of tueir long and crowded passage in a confied ship. A few were evi-dently ill and soon to die. All were puro black in color except the dropsical whose skins were tawny from disease. Their hair is very short and criup. Those who were well appeared curious and pleased, some of them ogling and giggUbg and chattering, and others smokingtohaccooutof short clay pipes with can stem's, just as our own negroes do. Those that were thin and sick looked dull and brutish, but there was nothing wild or ferocious in their aspect. They looked ami-able and docile, and readily obeyed the com-mands of the person who had charge of them. They are great thieves, however, anil appro-priate whatever they can on every occasion. There were 240 males and »50 females, who were kept separate on deckund in the holds.

The Petersburg InteUigenrer, referring to the North Carolina election, truly and forci-bly says: It is beyond all manner of question a most disgusting spectable to see such men as Ransom and Miller, after making the hills and valleysfarandneareeho andre-eeho with their thuudering denticciations of Democra-cy, coolly cast off their Whig armour, and put on the brazen panoply of that very Democracy ! A Christain swearning by the Koran is scarcely a more scandalous speci-men of rcnegadism, than an old Whig wal-lowing in the mire of Democracy. We won-der equally in both cases at the revolting versatility of faith and infirmity of princi-ple which are exhibited. Democracy, alwas an insidous and danger-ous enemy the people, has been growing worse and worse in its nature and aims of lxte years. Yet it is in this its most de-moralized and demoralizing stage, that it has enticed over to its motley ranks more ofits opponents than ever before. Toombs, Step-hens, Clingman, Faulkner, Wise, with a hundred others that used to make the wel-kin ring with their burning anathemas a-gainst this most despotic and corrupt party, as they oni-c painted it, are all now vocifera-ting its praises and wearing its livery, just as if it were the most exquisitely virtuous political organization that ever showered blessings on a people. It is the very same party, in a far more deteriorated condition, now, that it was in 1840, when all these men were driving their daggers into its vitals— Lynchburg Virginian.

A bay on '• Cay Verde," one of the keys on the north coast of Cuba, latitude 23 80, longitude SO 20, was the land-in.' place, where tha Kcho was detected by the Dolphin. The officers of the Dolphin left the harbor of Sagua la Grande the day be-fore, and while cruising westward in search of slavers, perceived the Kcho at daylight in the distance, bearing the British flag, and running down the coast ahead of the Dolphin in the'same direction. >"-> suspicion was excited.

The captain of the slaver now lost his presence of mind. . supposing he was suspected and pursued, and rd were in a Buddenlyhanled off from the coast. It was then observed that a number of launches near shore had their sails set to come out to the brig. This verified the suspicion excited bv her strange movement, and the Dolphin gave chase to the living vessel, still bearing the British flag.

They sing songs, clapping their hands «nd rocking their bo-dies in time, and these songs have a great resemblance to some rjf our negro spirituals. Several of the negro fellows exercise author-tv very much after the manner of our dri-vers, with airs ot authority and ridiculous gesticulation and grimaces. Others were cooking the «■ big pot" like good fellows, and with old breeches on too, obtained lrom the sailors. The captain! of the hold under-stands their lingo, and says they arc very averse to going back to Atrica, as the United States' law requires.^ Our coast resembles that they come from,; and the group of pines opposite the city on the south, looks to them like cocoanut trees of their native Africa. STEPHENS OF GEORGIA. Mr. A. II. Stephens, a renegade from the Whig party a fuw years ago, and now an honored leader of the Democracy, has been on a recent missionary pilgrimage to the Northwest—the objeot of his visit being to bri.ig about a reconciliation between the Ad-ministration and Douglas wings of his par-ty, lie is reported to he the zealous friend of Douglas, denouncing in unmeasured terms the Administration for :ts course towards the "Little Giant." But his zeal in behalf of Douglas and against the Administration is involving him in trouble at home. Sever-al of the Geargia Democratic papers are tak-ing him to task very savagely for h!s S3-1T1- pathics and interferreace in behalf of Doug-las. The Macon Slate Press, alluding to his open declarations in favor of the re-election of Douglas, says: "If the report be true, we fully concur with our cotemparary of the Columbus Times that Mr. Stephens "is no better than Doug-las;" and as we have already denounced the traitor, we stand prepared to t onuemn all Southern men who excuse and defend him." Richmond Whig. m » * SMALL BUSINESS. We understand that Mr. A. A. Brown, Clerk of the United States District Cout at this place, has been removed from office, and Mr. John L. CantwHl, appointed in his place. Mr. Brown, was a most excellent officer, in every way capable, and thoroughly acquain-ted with the duties of his office; ho happens to be a Whig however, though very quiet and unobtrusive in the maintainance of his opinions, and that is sufficient reason, for tho Hon. J udgc Biggs, to remove him. We should like to know though, what politics has to do with the duties of a Clerk of a Court, if the principle is to bo maintained, that none but democrats are to be allowed to have anything to do with the operations of our Courts of Justice, why not enforce the rule at once, and have none but democratic jurors also. It is a small, business anyhow you can fix it, monstrous small, and unworthy tha dignified position which J udge Biggs occupies.— Wil-mington Herald. his foot and prevent it. You should use |M strap until vou have him broken from Kick-ing, which "will not take very long. i'J« should hitch a kicking horse by himself; y«a can manage him better in this way than jo hitch him by the side of another horse HOW TO BREAK A 1IOBSK FROM SCARIIO. It is an established rule in philosophy, that there is not an effect without a_'»«'■-» and if so. there must ho HOIIIO cause for tiio scaring of a horse. The horse scares eitl. ;r from imagination or from pair.. Now, it i» a law off his nature, that if you will <> 1- vince him that any object will not hurt hn 1, there is no danger of his scaring at it, no matter lu.w frightful it may bo in appe:•> - ance. To exemplify this, take a horse tl at is very ensilv scared :.t an umbrella: take that horse into a tight stable where *oa «M have attention, take him by the bridle, I hold the umbrella in your band, W■ first looks at it ho will be afraid of it, ami if he could he would soon be out of its rea h. but hold it in your hand, let him look at it and feel it with his nose a few minutes, and then you can open und shut it us you plea e, occasionally letting him feel it with USDO-O, and soon lie will care nothing about it. In the same manner you can break Ul >" horse from scaring at things that ma) look frightful to him, logs, stumps by tho road-side, or anything that you may wish to car-ry on him. If you wish to make a trial ol this theory,JUM take a horse into the stalle, and let him examine the frightful objei ' ■ few minutes alter his mode off examining, things, and vou will be perfectly saiislisl. We have tried horses that would not suitor you to take an umbrella OB tliein shut, and in fifteen minutes could open and shin it at pleasure, and tliey will pay BO attention to t. There is something peculiar in tho horse I though it is because he has not the laciihy of reasoning.) You can take an object that ho is afraid off, take it only on one side. 1 him examine it OB that side only: not let, the other eye sec it; he will be brft-ken on 0110 side, and as BOOB us the olii-r eye beholds it. will be afraid until be tool* at it and touches it with his nose; then bo will be broken 011 both sides. In TELEGRAPHING. Yesterday, under til e direction of the Uni-cs civil officers, the negroes, 30G in A cotemporary gives us the following in-formation on the subject off telegraphing: "Noah invented telegraphing by birds. He was the first to send out a carrier-dove for news. Moses was the first to cross the Bea; he had the water driven back, and then trudged over through the mud; but would not old Noah and Moses both be astonished jf they could see Victoria and Buchanan sparking' through the bottom of the sea. 3,000 miles apart—their talk running buck and forth under twenty-four hundred fath-oms of water, and yet coming out dry sis a chip!" ted States .. number, were taken, by the steamer t.en.
