Lei tht Border States Politician$ Look Out. —By Article 2d, section 1st, No. 3, of the Con stitution of the Confederate States of North A- uierica, it is provided that— No person except a naturul-boru citizen, or a citizen of one of tho Sialeti of this Cuatederacy, at the time of the adoption of this constitution, sthall be eligible to the office of President, etc. Commenting on this, the Memphis Bulletin remarks, that this provision is not so easy of con struction, and it may be well for the politicians iu the Border States to understand it before “jinin” the new G-overnment.'' There is no diffi culty in appreliending the lull meaning of *‘na- turul-born citizens” as employed by the framers of the great constitution under which we have lived so long and so gloriously prospered; but in its new application there appears to be ambigaitj in the expression itselt. Then, it will be aUu seen, that all are excluded from the Presidency of the Southern Republic, who were not citizens ot' the Cotton States at the time of the adoption of the Constitutioa! This, it seems to us, would work to the disadvantage of the Presidential as pirations of ail the Seceding politicians in the Border States, and also 'of the State of Texas. Richniijnd Whty. Changes of Fupulation.—The increase of over eight millions in our population during the last ten years contrasts wonderfully with the figures ot &ome w)f the recent European censuses. Ghreat Britain, it is true, shows a very fair rate of in crease, ‘jonsideriug the extent of her emigration. But France, which sends out but very tew emi grants, has increased only about a quarter of a uiilliou within a period of five years. But it is a still more remarkable fact that there has been, during the lust three years, a diminution of the human race in the Au^rian Empire to the extent ot two million five hundred thou.sand. The popu lation returns for ISOO show, according to the V'ienna Gazette, that the population is now re duced to thirty-six millions, whereas in 1857 it amounted to thirty-eight anti a half millions. This is striking proof ot the deteriorating tendencies of a despotic Government. Ground down by heavy taxe^, shut out from the invigorating exercise of their faculties iu the way that seems best to them, the people languish and decay. Freedom is life- giving; despotism is worse than an epidemic. It IS paint'ul to think that any of our own citizens should bo so forgeti'ul of these truths that they should not hesitate to destroy our institutions and run the ri&k ot a military tyranny rather tl^in to endure the occasional irritation ol free speech and equal rights.— B(,sluu Jouruat. , Cost of the Ayitation.—The Salem (Ala.) IXegister thinks there is not a public work, a single branch of business of any kindf single de- paitment of haman enterprise in this counti^', or one single individual in it, bat has suffered more or less by'the present agitation. The loss to the country can scarcely be less than a thousand mill ions of dollars. ‘ ‘ ' CAPT. WILKE$!i’ll$ REPORT ».\ THE DEEP RIVER WINERU REGION’.

A singular case was brought to light ia this city yesterday, which will be added to the warn ings against the danger of coovieting criminals upon circumstantial cvidenoe. A negro named George Orem made a dying confession that he committed a murder for which Cyphus, aUo color ed, was hung some years since. Cyphus, it will be recollected, was hung at the aam« time with Gambrill, Corrie and Crop, convicted of tbe mur der of police officers Benton and Rigdon, and died strongly protesting hiH innocence, declaring that he had been mistaken for another man. The evidence against him was then thought to be con clusive, but it now appears that the pH»r fellow’s protestations were entirely truthful.—BaU. Am. At a chance dog fight in I'lercland, last week, chloroform had to be administered to the ‘»upper dog” to make him release his hold ot his weaker opponent. Immediately after inhaling the subtle fltjid the animal relaxed his grasp, and feHinsen- sible, in which condition he remained for- some time.* ' ‘ H hat is a jVeHspnpt^rl!—Judge Low, ot the Land Court, 8t i»ui.s. ha.s decided that a j)uper published in tlio interest of a relijfiuus sect is nut a newspaper, and that legal liOticeti puUi«ied in suoh journata are null aud void. 91
