. the Governor of Virginia had resolved

of Senators and Representatives of Virginia had been called, to take place several
weeks prior to the meeting of Congress,

had determined to stop the immigration of
negroes into that Island. Since that time,
according to the statements of newspaper
correspondents at Havana, the CaptainGeneral bas approved of a plan for introducing 5,000 natives of Polynesia as an experiment. This new description of laborers, says the New York Journal of Commerce, are represented to be athletic and
straight haired, with good, black complexions. A letter dated Havana, Sept. 17th,
published in the New Orleans Delta, saye :
“It is thought that they will assimilate and
amalgamate with ourservile stock better
than the Asiatic. Vessels will be immediately dispatched by those interested in the
scheme, and I believe one or two arealready on their way in anticipation of the
authorization, To meet our increasing agricultural industry, the necessity is pressing
for hands.”’? The voyage from the Islands
of Polynesia being sbort, compared wit)
that of Coolies in the passage from their respective countries, this new system is likely
to be attended with less hardsbip than has
characterized some otber branches of the
“apprenticeship’’ business, But the supply
of labor to be obtained from the Pacific
must be very limited, asa few years ago
the entire population of Polynesia, exclusive of the Sandwich Islands, was only
about 500,000, The most populous were
the Navigator’s, which were estimated to
contain 160,000; aud the Feejee Islands,
100,000.
RoyaL Perripy.—Honor among Kings
ought to be as much a certainty, one would
fancy, as honor among thieves, It is not,
we fear,
The latest foreign papers contain accounts of alittle bit of sharp practice
which the ex-Kiug of Naples lately attempted against bis relative the Emperor of
Austria,
Francis Joseph, himself a weak and sometimes wicked sovereign, had so much sympatby for Francis IL, of Naples, that, when
it became pretty clear that the Neapolitan
. tyrant would have to fly, the Austrian fleet
were ordered up from the Gulf of Venice to
the shore of the Kingdom of Naples, in order, if needs be, to receive the fagitive King
and his family, and safely convey them to
an asylum in the Austrian dominions,
Of course, the King of Naples was greatly relieved and obliged by the intimation
that if—as the event proved—he could not
trust his own navy, he might rely on the
navy of Austria. But, not especially anxious to become an exile, the Neapolitan ra. ler intimated to Garibaldi that provided he
would discontinue bis course upon Naples,
he (the King) would lend him the Neapo. litan navy, with a large military force, to
. take with him for hostile operations against
. Venetia,
Incensed at this base perfidy, Garibaldi
communicated it to the Emperor of Austria,
. who immediately recalled his fleet to Trieste
. and abandoned his treacherous cousin to
. his fate. So runs the story, and it is too
. positively detailed to leave much reasonable doubt of its being founded on facts.
. Murper or Jack Powsers.—A dispatch
. from Los Angeles says that the notorious
. Jack Powers was murdered on bis ranch, a
. little south of Tubac, Arizona, by his Mexi. can peons, Ae had some seven or eight
. hundred head of stock on his ranch when
he was murdered.
TerrisLe Hurricane.—A letter from
Leipsic announees the visitation upon that
. city of ene of the most terrible hurricanes
. that had ever transpired within the memory of man. It occurred on the 27th of
August, and was accompanied by a terrific
hail storm, by which at least 2,300 houses
and public edifices were seriously damaged,
and the window frames in all were totally
demolished. Leipsic is the greatest metropolis of the German book-world. It contains
over two thousand libraries, numerous and
extensive printing offices, type-foundries,
. ke. The greater part of these establish. nents must be closed for repairs, and a large
number of working people are by this calamity thrown out of employ. The loss to
the proprietors is incalculable.
Tue Emperor of China is represented to
be in a state of drunken helpless imbecility.
The Chief Censor, an officer whose duty it
is to rebuke the faults of the highest Chinese officials, protested some months ago
ugainst the conduct of the Emperor, against
. his drankeness and dissipation, bis attachment to actors, and love of low society.
. This reproof to majesty was published ia
the Pekin Gazette, and circulated throughout the length and breadth of the empire.

Forbes from the Italian revolutionary service, a
