This is bat Poland claims. Sbe bas teen belied; she prays that the truth be now jpokeu . aud lie-trj.

One hundred years airo she held Iter head high among the foremost nation. Stretching from the Baltic in the north to the Black Sea in the south, fifteen millions of prosperous and happy people shared - the plenty of Iter broad domain. Her form of government, even quite early in history; tended "' tow art! a republic, and political suffrage was ex- : tended amoug ber people to a degree then and perhaps even now unknown in the rest of Europe. Her cities were the homes of hospitality and refinement; her . schools of learning .were famous; and you remember that it waa ' into a Polish, brain the great-idea first enJ tered that the slant that stud the blue vanlt 7 above us do no move through the skies merely to give thU little world light, but are themselves " ' worlds, revolving each in its special orbit, obey . jng one sovereign ruler under which all are united, jet each is free. Great cheering . Nicho- - las Koppeniik.or Copernicus, the great estrones - mer of the sixth century, waa a Pole. : Happily for bereelr, removed from the temptations, and" intoxications of commercial life, Poland wis . chieiiy agricultural, &ai her chi Urea . grew vp healthy, simple in manners, stalwart and brave. They were a cation of soldier?;1 and, though hedged aroasd by warlike and aggressive nations she could hold her own with the best. - There was a noble, unselfish magnanimity, too, about Poland of old, that in these days of peddling diplomacy, we can scarce understand. At tbe close f the seventeenth century, Austria was about the most dangerous and troublesome neighbor Poland had, and they watched each other with jeal om attention. Suddenly there burst upon Europe a terrible disaster. The Turks, with a gret army, bad crossed the frontier, and were ' spreading devastation as they marched. Tbe Turks - were then the most warlike nation in tbe world. Their Asiatic savagery, their hatred of Christianity, the deadly earnestness of their propagaudism .of the Moslem Creed,' all filled Europe with affright. On they came like . a hurrictne. and all went down before them. This time tbey had rowed to extirpete tbe Christian name, and to set the Crescent above the . Cross in every cathedral in Europe. . They inarched straight on Vienna and encompassed it ail around. There seemed no hope bat from Poland. What would Polaud do? Why help Austria? whimpered policy; let ber fall; it is one enemy the less. Thus did not think the King of Poland John Sobieski. He was a man of heroic mould. He saw Europe menaced, its religi en and iu eiriiizition imperilled. - He saw tiit tale of baibaiism that had been a pain aud again - banked oat, riring once more atl threatening to engulf all in ruin. He saw this, and forgetting Poland's ancient grudge, John Sobteski bade his Poles fird on their swords and march to tbe relief ot their ancient foe. Loud cheers. It wae early morning, they say, when John Sobieski first reconnoitered the Turkish army as it Uy encamped around Vienna. The men were at breikf.ist, and he conld even recoguize tbe TurkUh Viiier ramly sipping his coffee before his tent. John, ' 1, suspect, had not' breakfted, Tor the sight made him angry He, thereupon,' al ort of grace betöre meat, shouted out; "no noftit Domine" ''not to us, oh, Lord;'' and ordered an instant advance surprised the - Turks routed them cattared them eat their breakfast raised the siege and when, next day, be knelt in tbe grand Cathedral of Vienna, and the priest from the altar gare out as his text: "There was a ' man sent from God, and his name was John," every ere turned to the Polish King, and every roiee cried our, "Amen, A men;" for by John Sobieski aud the gallant s Poles, into whose hearts Heven, had breatheJ that sublime magnanimity, Eurcpe had been

TIICLAWIIIIIItLK-TIIIISOUTIISEA Xlie iret Financier) of BT ranee Knsj--. land and America. Chkstxb, Cocstt. November 25. 1863. The Valley of the Mississippi, known' as Lou isiana Territory, was possespe-i by France in the j ear 1712. aa far as the bead spring of the Alle gheny, and the exclusive trade of tins immense territory was granted by Louis XIV to a f rencb merchant named Croz.it. Crozat, however, not succeeding in the colonization of the territory. his colony was resigued to the King iu 1717, with a population, including the military, ot not more than seven hundred persons. The revenues of the French government were not equal to the interest on tbe euormous lebt bequeathed by the- estravagance of Louis XIV, and hence there was great depression in the value ' of the national securities. Just at this time the notorious financier John Law appeared on the stage- ' ... . Law . was a grimcrack, itinerant Scotchman, who managed to raise himself to the dignity of Comptroller General of the Finances of France upon tUe strength of, a scheme, invented by himself, lor establishing a bank, an Eist India and a Mississippi Company, by the profits of which the national district of France was to be paid off. He Erst offered his plan Im Victor Am.-ideors, King of Sardinia, who told him "he was not powerful enough to ruin bimself." " Taking advantage of the financial depression in France, Law proposed his credit system to the Regent as a relief. In 1716 be opened a bank' under tbe protection of the Duke of Orlems.then Recent of France. . " : In 1717 the Western or Mississippi Compiny received the tr.iufer of the commerce of Louisiana, which had just been resigned by Cms it. Bancroft relates that ;the mines and commerce and boundless extent of Louisiana were now invoked to relieve the burden and rentw the credit of the metropofis. Tbe human mind is fell of trust; men' in masses always have faith in the appro ich of better times; humanity abounds in hope.' The Valley of the Mississippi interned the Imagination of France; anticipating the fu ture, the French nation beheld the certain opulence of coming ages y within their immediate. Ea.h." This Mississippi schöne was the great "Law bubble." ' - . Law's theory was that the currency of a country need not posaess Intrinsic valne; that tbe wealth of a nation may be indefinitely increased by an aibitrary infusion of paper. ' ' . . .' The Company of the Mississippi instituted by Law, was the basis upon which the cteiitof the Government was to be revived, and "Law was reverenced as the greatest man of tho age " The shares of the company were mit into the market and paid for in public bonos; and thus the Government beer, me debtor to a company of its own creation. The bonds, from depreciation, ros npidly in ralue in consequence of the inter-., est having been punctually paid by the bank es . tablished by Law whilst extravagant aud fabuulous stories were circulated of tbe wealth of Louisiana, iu cities' and gold mines. In 1719 Law's Bank became the Bank of France. People of every rank and condition of life, seduced by the prwpect of fmmense gains, subscribed for snnreci in the "Law bubble." Of this bubble, IT.inei-oft, in his history, writes; '.."A Government which had almost absolute power of legislation.' conspired to give the widest extension to what was called credit. "Law might hare regulated'al his pleasure the Interest of money, the valna of steck and the rice of hbor and produce. The contest between paper and specie begttn to rage the one buoyed up by despotic power, the other appealing to common ense. - fJ!er waa m(,e tbe legal tender in all payments. To win the. little gold aud silver that was hoarded by the humble classes, smill bills, as low, even, as ten lirser, (a livre is about twenty cents,) were put In circulation. Averiee became frenzy; its fury seized every member of the royal family, men of letters, pre lates and women. To doubt the wealth of Louisiana provoked anger. New Orleans was famous at Paris, as a beautiful city almost before tha eanebrakes begast to be cut down..'! Shares of the bubble advanced lo more than ten times their original tJus. Two thousand , millions of bills were emitted iu sixteen months.. But Bancroft siys "the extravagances of stock jobbing were Increased by the latent distrust alike of the shares aud of the bills; men purchased stocks hecause they feared the end of tbe paper system N Tbafuud grew. tu be apparent," and to stifle doubt-L-tw was appointed Comptroller General, And "he perfected the triümph of paper by a decree that no person, or corporation, should hare on hand more than five hundred lines in specie, tbe rest must be exchanged for paper, and all payments, except for tum? ander one hundred livrcs. must be paid in paper.' Terror, and the dread of informers, brought, within three weeks, forty-fuor millions into bank. In March, a de-, cree of Council de l the value of slock at nine, thmiMrtd lirre for five hundred, aud forbade cer-. tiu corporations to invest money in any thing else, ' All circulation of gold and silver, except for change, was prohibited; all payments must be in paper, except for sums under ten livres;" confidence disappeared, and the Law bubble burst in
1720. On this scheme Bancroft thug moralizes: I
"When men ue greatly in the wrong, especially when they bare embarked their fortunes in their I error, they willfully resist light. So it hss been with the French people; tbey remained latthrul to tbe de!usioti till France was impoverished, public and private credit subverted, the income of capitalists annihilated, and labor left without employment, while, lo the inTdst of the universal wretchedness of tbe middling class, a lew war speculators gloried in their unjust acquisition and enjoyment of immease wealth.'" ' r-. Tbe "Law bubble" burst in Trance in 1720, and in the same yearr in England, Sir John Blunt projected tb South Sea scheme. Blunt proposed to Ministers a. plan by which, the South Sea trade might be made the means h paying off the national debt. The funds were first to be consoli dated, and the entire debt to bw liquidated by the South Sea Company in twenty-seven years. Bv means of an immense distribution tn stock among such members of Governmut as it was found necessary to bribe, including the Chancel lor of the Exchequer, Aislabie, and the Secre tarv of Sute. the scheme, through the purchase influence of AisUbie, passed Parliameut, and the stock rose from 10U to l.uuu. Soon the same National frency seized the pub lie mind as bad led tbe French to their ruin. , To stimulate this desire to obtain the stock, all sorts of infamous means were reported to. .. Extrava gant stories were circulated of mines of wealth discovered in the South Seas, and at least fifty per cent, dividends were promised Landlords sold their estates, and people neg- l lected their business, to rush intu the share mar ket. But in less thaa six months the "South Sea bubble" burst. Ministers called the Bank of Englaod to their aid. but this was of no avail; confidence was lostj the stock . fell; everthirg was borne down before it. Public credit sus tained a terrible shock, and au infinite number of families were overwhelmed -with ruin. "The nation was throws into a dangerous ferment, and nothing was beard lut live ratings of grief, disappointment and de?psif "- History (Smollet) relates, as a cunous coincidence, that, "while at tbe moment a South Set director was scarcely safe in the streets fmm the vengeance of the pop lace, Law, the projector of the Mississippi bubble in France, was fljing for his life fmm the people whom he bad begsared. The iuvestigation by Parliament showed that, among others, the Chancellor, Aislabie. had e counts of profits on this stock with different brokers and merchants to tbe enormous amonut nf ALI AiaUbie was expelled from the House, sent' to the Tower, and his estate was taken for tbe ben efit cf the stockholders of the South Sea Company, aud auch also wae the fate of others impli cated. . Sueh were the wild scheme which, projected by avarice and villaur, one hundred and fortv years ago, frieox;ed the publi-j mind of France and England. 1 be people of those countries, duped by the men who held tbe reins of power, were thus led to tbeir own rum And are we sure that our hopes and financial credit have not for their basis a bubble quite as nimy aa .that of Liw and Htuut?

(From the Rational intelligencer. ' Suf ferlnc ' tlte Con tret band According to an official report from a commit tee appointed bv the (Jhiiplaiiis' Association at Vicksburg to ascertain the number and warns of the coutmbaiids in the Department jf the Ten nessee, there are on the banks of the Mississippi, from Helena to Natchez, not 1- th-to thirty jive thous md.

A few work upon the leised plantations lor them selves, but most are dependent upon tbe (Jovern mcnt for support. Their condition is a very des titute and almost hopeless one. The reportsay, as to health, "That thrre has been fearful mor tality among the freed meti, both the enlisted sol diers and the eatnns of the infirm, we hare ago nizingly felt Their prospects for he winter are Of the m!t gloomy character. The New ' Orleans correspondent of A cw York paper thu3 speaks of the condition of af fairs on some of the "Government plantations in Loi6iant :" ' "While referring to tht subject of plantations. my attention has been called to the app.trcutlv impartial report of Mr. W. II. V ilder, the inspec tor of plantations, who recently visited the plan tatious uuder the control of Col IHnks, supenn tendeut of contrabands. He says, in his report to the proper authorities : 'More pitrtirubwly would I call vour attention to' the oid Hickory plantation. The mortality that has and is occurrnig meic is uuij api'miMii; v.i line ouuc plantation, out of oue hundred and fortv nine ne groes, eighty five bnve died antl twenty-two have run awav, thus leaving but fortf two of thenngl nal number. At trie Old Ilickorr plantation there were four hundred and thirteen negroes; of these two hundred and two hive died since Juue l;t. On my Visit there I found thirty-eiht ne groes sick without proper nurses or medic I attendance. The hospital is a building eighteen by twenty three feet in size, in which the sick re ferred to were pacsed. In the mitist of this lax ir house was tbe de id body of a woman who had died 011 Wednesday at three o'clock A. M At five o'clock P.M. the following d.iv no measured had been taken for her sepulture."" The rew York I trees has long letter writ ten this month of Goodrich's Lindinc, in Lousiaia, in which the writer states that the operations on the plantitions within that district are more successful than iu the vicinitv of New Orleans He slates that between Lake Providence and Milliken's Bend.n distance of about fifty :iles fortv-five blanutious bave been leased some to resident whites, some to Northern men, snd fif teen to negroes. Elsewhere there is little doing. The negroes, we.are told, are more successful iu raising cotton than the whites, let on one ol the plantations operated by two negroes, employ ing about fifty Innds, only forty btles of cotton will be raised. , And this, ihe best, is oniv about oue tenth of a crop. Of the condition of the ne croes at this itoint the lotter says': "There is und has been a greitde il of duscou teutand iiimbüiig among alt el.iSf-iJs', and there has also been n prent deal usurTeriui;.' Scarcelr any of the uegroes on the plantatiotis here.tboat's were raised 111 the immctliate p-irt of the couutrv All have eome from Mississippi and from tbe back country. Perhaps the most marked trait in the negro character is his lore of home and of the localities to which be Is accustomed. Tbey all pine for tbeir homes. Thev long for the old quarters thev have live! in, for the old woods they h.tvernamed iu,.md the old fields they bave tilled. The surgeons m ciurve of contraband caraps'tell me that a great many of them actu ally tiiulroni home vickness.or, in scientific lan guage, nostugi .., They get thinking of their old homes, aud il they luve left their families or any part of them bebind they long to see them, and so thev become depressed inspirits ami yield readily to the first attack of disease, or succumb jo the denresiiou alone. 1 he negroes here are J at woik and earuing wages, and they are not so liable to sicaJiej, but many of them when they first came were compelled to lie for several days ou the levee in the cold rairt. There wasTio shelter for them. They came bv hundreds to seek the protection of onr troops. Mtny of thero necessarily died from exposure, aod the memory of those days of sr. Hering aud deith still lingers among them. Under these circumstances it is inevitable that, there should be a great deal of discontent and complaint among the negroes But,, coming nearer home, we find in ' the Windsor (Vermont) Journal of the I4tli inst., a letter from Mr. James P. Stone, a missionary at Hampton, near Fortress , Monroe, which howi that the condition of the "contrabands ia Southeastern Virginia is but little befer in some re specta than that of the Same race on the banks of the Mississippi. Mr, Stone, after referring to the rcc'tiun and distribution ot a quantity of old clolliiiig forwarded to uim ir answer to a prerl ous apneal.' proceeded as follows: ' ' . ' ' "'Ilut what is the little "which has already reached us itnoii; such a multitude of eiser an plicanU?

Kren colored people cunnoi endure everything. They, as well aa others, must die when they caunot live; and lir-e they cannot, when through exposure and hardehips, cold and hunger, mortal disease U en-" dured, and the principle of rltality extinguished. Allow us, then, again lo say to the good people
of Vermont, Do not forget the colored people of
Southeastern Virginia. Seud us your cast off clothing; send all that yoo can spare; send, espedally at this season of the year, that which will help to keep the people warm, by day or by night. I speak of second hand or cast-off clothing be cause we hare more hope of obtaining that noon.' But of course new 1 garments will not be objec ted to, and the more that are new the better. The foregoing statements, it will be see, co-' Incide with those from other sources and sources not unfriendly to the blacks which we bave . heretofore had occasion from time- to 'time to place on record in our columns. Remarking upon these tale of misery, and especially upon the disclosures latelv made at a public meeting j in New York by the Rev. Mr. Fiske, the Boston Post asks: ' . "Is there a sing! element in this cup of hor rors of immediate emancipation that thought fal ' minds have not predicted? Hare not all tbe evils been enumerated? Was there one left out? It U the whole worl i's experience that races. long depndeat, long enervated by oppression. must be educated up to a state in which to et joy . the blessings of freedom, and those who would invite them into a state where starvation is before them are responsible for the harvest of, death. ' ' - ': - V "The great problem before the country Is to deal with four millions of negroes, and deter mine the relations which six or eight millions of whites shall bear to them. And now who is to fcers to do this? The radicals who say therFed aoive mis pruniemr w no are to oe tne law ma eral Constitution is ' played out. unhesitatingly. answer, Uongress; and the plan adopted in supplying tbe negroes with rations,' is avowed to be ' the beginning of a grett system. " '. - ' :.. ".Let this be looked at fullv in tbe lace. 1 nis is to establish the paternal policy of a govern- , metit's taking care of the people. Greil distress hns prevailed in England for two rears pist among tbe manuf.rciurerers, and who does not know of Ireland In her starvation years? But the British Government never undertook 1o take care of the millions of its distressed population. Can this be done by the Federal Government? "Tbe problem of this race is forcing itself on the country with painful strides; and in a way that will not admit of postponement. ' Meantime the present duty is clear. There must be ways de vised to prevent further su tiering and to relieve the present herrors. Tbe radical receipe of amalgamation and fulsome promises will not clothe the destitute or feed the stirviug, and for tbe remedv ihecountrv tfiiist look elsewhere."
