MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS

kENTUoKY.--Fromt the seat of government
of this State our dates are to the 9TH of the
month, at which time discord prevailed be-
tween the two branches Of the Legislature
the old Court party having a majority of about
"a in the House of Representatives, ard the
new Court a majority of 2 or 3 votes in the
Senate. In the former body, by a still larger
majority, resolutions have been adopted, eau
toning and advising the Auditor and Treasurer
OF the State not to pay the salaries of the judo
es OF the new Court; also, expressing an opn.
ion, decidedly in favour Of the power of the
Judges Of the old Court, to coerce a restoration
OF the papers, records, and public property.
taken from their old Clerk by the Clerk of the
new Court; also, expressing the opinion that
the Governor, Lieutenant Governor. Senator's
and Representatives, ought all to resign their
oitices at the close of the present session. and
that they be invited TO do so. A state of great
evaporation Of the two parties, one against
another, appears TO exist at Frankfort.

Proposed hrasion Of Cuba.-A letter from
an officer in the Colombian navy, published in
the Savannah Georgian, dated Cartharepa.
October 23d, states that an expedition is fttine
out at that place, against the island of Cuba
consisting OF one "a, hive frigates, six sloops OF
war, and number of briggs, schooners. gun
boats, &C. The number Of troops will consist
of from ten 10 twelve thousand, and it is gen
orally believed, from the state OF affairs in Gu
ba, and the revolutionary disposition of the
inhabitants, that the conquest will be an easy
one. All that prevents the departure of the
expedition. is being obliged Is wait for the ar

Although Congress is busily engaged, but
little has yet been done, portion only Of
which is interesting to the public. We have
published under its appropriate head, such
parts of the proceedings as relate to matters OF
general interest. There is, as usual, at the
commencement Of the session, great amount
OF local and private business to transact-pe-
titions to be read, and resolutions to be offer
ed. But little is ever expected to be done
Till after ncw-year's day, except in the intia-
tory stages. Much matter for discussion is
already introduced the revision of the Ju-
diciary-the bankrupt abolishment OF
imprisonment for debt-propositions for a
mending the Constitution, OF which it will be
seen that several are already before the two
Houses which, together with the various
subjects embraced in the Presidenfs message
will afford full scope for-thc display of talent,
ofwhichy certainly, very fair proportion is to
be found in the present Congress.
The subject of internal improvements will
eagage the attention OF Congress- more fully
than at any former period. Notwithstanding
many deny the constitutional right OF appro-
priating money for such purposes, among

Surrender Of the Castle of 81. Juan d'L,loo

We have the satisfaction to announce that
the Spaniards have been forced to abandon
the last strong hold they possessed on this
side of the whole Continent of America.
The Castle of St. Juan de Uloa, which has
for a long time annoyed the commerce OF
Mexico and commanded the entrance into
the port Of Vera Cruz, was surrendered to
the Mexicans on the seventeenth ult. The
garrison in the Castles, which originally con-
sisted Of twelve hundred men, were reduced bv
disease and desertion to one hundred and fftv
at the time OF its surrender. So dreadful was
the Castle, that they were obliged for two
months previous to the equalization to eat rails
for the maintenance of life, and It is ascertain.

OPINIONS IN FRANCE.
Worcester, Dec. 20, 1925.

Since the removal of nj. Chateaubri-
and from the post of Minister for For
eign Affairs in France, the Paris Journal
des Debats, paper said to be under his
control, has contained several spirited
attacks upon the measures of the Gov
eminent, evidently from his pen The
following extract from an article which
lately appeared in that paper, contains
language which we would hardly have
supposed subject of France would have
dared TO hold:
The United States are no longer the
only power which influences the minds
of nations. They have formed about
them a republican world, which is soon
going to hold its general Congress at
Panama. The speeches which will be
made in that Assembly, will resound
beyond the seas. What effect will thew
produce The simple declaration of
the rights of man, by the United States,
gave us the bloody Saturnalia of 1898.
Were minds. however, prepared at
that time as they now are 10 receive
popular impressions Were there not
still in 1889 political orders, corpora
lions, great proprietors, ancient habits,
recent recollections, which opposed The
new doctrines? Since this period. the
revolution has rolled over France its
heavy leveling wheel. Every thing
has been crushed, men and things -
the illusions of the past have disappear
ed the supports Of the throne have
oeen broken, every Individual, made
free by his misfortunes, has learned TO
depend only upon himself; to esteem
himself only for his own qualities and
tins natural Legitimacy, which took The
place OF political legitimacy, has laid
The foundation 10 the minds of men o.
an mvincible independence. At the
same time, this sentiment OF liberty does
not proceed from democratic meetings.
from passionate and tumuItuous clubs.
1t is no longer the ignorant classes. but
enlightened classes, who incline 10 re-.
forms. II revolutions should again TAX e
place, 1t is probable they would be eff
tecIed with less violence, less efTusion
of blood, less injustice, less spoliation !;
1t would be political change, elaborat-
ed and brought to perfection by time,
as the sun ripens fruit. The re presen-
alive republic has its forms pointed
out, and this republic. which might have
been kept off forever by representa-
tive monarchy, when freely admitted,
would be present to consecrate its liber-
ties before misunderstood. There are
men who wish TO see nothing, and who
can see nothing in what is passing abou,
them. Every thing announces that a
general revolution is going on human
society, and those who should be the most
persuaded of it, appear to believe that
every thing is going on az il did thou
sand years ago.

Valuable Medicine,
FOR
Coughs e Consunptions.

THE high reputation that ANDERsoN's
a COUGH DROPS and PICTORIAL pow
DElSS have gained for Coughs and other affections
of the breast and lungs leading TO Consumption,
renders it unnecessary TO say much in recon-
mendng them to the Public, as no stronger proof
of their possessing uncommon virtues could be
given than viii be found by reading the Certif-
Gates accompanying each bottle, given by those of
the first responsibility, who have used them in
OF long standing and some of them, where
their physicians had given them up past recov-
cry, have been entirely restored by the use of
this Medicine. The fact that they have now
been in use SIX years, and that the demand the
present season has been much greater than at any
former period, is also strong argument in their
favour. Thousands have shortened their DAYS,
by Eeglectng coughs when first attacked, which
have soon determined in seated Consump-
ton, and proved fatal. Scarcely case of colds,
coughs, pssn in the side, difficulty of breathing,
want of sleep arising from debility, even Con-
sumptiohs, but may be relieved by timely use of
this healing baIsam. Each dollar bottle of this
medicine contains about forty doses, which proves
them to be cheap medicine, considering their
virtues.
For the further satisfaction of the Public, the
following Certificate is offered for perusal

BANKs.-The present is time which tries
the standing of the Banks, and it is possible
that some may be made TO sink beneath the
pressure, though we do not apprehend so much
danger as many do. The extraordinary means

procure funds, together with the report that
it is loser by the great failure in London.

and to have induced the more prudent part of
the community TO reject their Bills, or to get
rid of them as soon as possible. The Boston
papers, however, express a confidence in its

The present scarcity of money ia owing to the
operations of the Boston Allied Banks. Should
the country Banks form a counter alliance
it would create the greatest pecuniary distress
ever witnessed in Boston. 1t would be easy
to compel those Banks TO stop discounting, and
probably to suspend specie payments. 1t is
hoped that, if the LEGISLATURE do any thing
this winter TO promote internal improvements,
it will be in favor of such only as will increase
the facilities for turning the course of trade
toward New-York, where it will soon be
driven by the illiberal policy pursued at Bos-
ton.

Of the 2lst. As the managers might reason
ably expect, his engagement was the signal
for grand roW, whenever he should appear
on the boards. He did appear, the result
of which we have given. The next night he
arrived in this town, weH armed, and depart
