By MRS. HELEN c. KNIGHT.

Mary LEE returned TO her father )
house alter two wears residence with
her uncle Kent. Peculiar circumstan-
ccs alone had induced her parents to al
low this long absence from the paren-
tai roof and JOY fully was their eldest
born welcomed back again to the warm
and loving sympathics of home. With
secret solcitudc did they watch the
development of her character, to learn
if the Mary who went out from them
was the same Mary who had rcturnd to
them. 1t was not the child Mary, now /;
taller Mary, maturcd in manner, and
more beautiful in person. The little
children were quite overjoycd. Char
ley declared he never saw any one who
could play cats cradle with him so
well; 80 aud as for arithmetic, 'why a
queen could not explain his sums better
than Mary did, Alice played with
her long curls and said she had almost
forgotten she had such sister; and
Robert WAS glad he had somebody to
gallant about. For the first week or
50, Mary was regarded something in
the light OF visitor. BY and by she
began to take her appropriate place in
the family circle, and bear the burden
Of family duty. Then the rose.tints
which invested Mary as they do every
one whom we view through the mcdi-
UNI of our own joyful feelings alone,
began to fade away and her parents
were enabled to sec the real light and
shades of her character. They rejoic-
cd to behold much which was true. and
excellent. and lovely in her principles
and practice, One defect soon appear
cd, which threatened some unhappi-
ness in the happy home. but it was a
defect in education. and needed to be
removed less by direct prcccpt, or
formal lecture, than be enabling her to
correct her own false judgment by
more enlarged views OF real lie. Mary
was secretly dissatisfied with her home.
Small it certainly was, compared with
her uncle's; and she yearncd for the
elegant and expensive frniture-for
tn costly decorations and thousand
Injuries which she had been accustom-
cd to see and enjoy there.
ooh, flther, why don't you have
large open stove like uncle's! 1t is so
much pleasanler; this black, air-tight
stove will make us blue all winter.
Because cannot afford it, my dear
answered her father mildly.
Why we thought it was beauty
exclaimed Charles; but I declare it is
awful black looking,as Mary says. o,
ia'her, I don't believe we shall enjoy it

WAsHINGToN Oct. Goth.

MIR. Calhoun. towards The close Of the
lae administration, despatched an agent
to The island Of St. Domingo, for wha!
particular purpose, it was not known
He was paid out of the secret service
fund. This agent, Mr.. Hogan, has re-
turned, aud made voluminous, and, |
understand, an interesting report, which
will, probably, at some time, see the light.
II is conjectured that it relates chiefly TO
the condition Of the Spanish portion of
the Island, and the situation and prospects
of the Dominicans their war with The
Haytiens; the policy Of the English and
French Governments iu regard 10 them
and 10 fhe slave holding portion of the
West India Islands generally, Sc. 1t has
bsen supposed that The British government,
aud perhaps The govcrnmen, oe France
also, will take such course as will aid
the entire abolition Of slavery 10 the this
island, and indeed, in all The Spanish and
French Islands. The subject is one OF
some importance to the slaveholding' por-
lion of the United States.
The situation of Cuba is critical, and is
regarded with deep interest. Should ii
pass from the possession of Spain. it will
ialso become government of free blacks
under the protection Of Great Britain
II was long ago in,imared by our govern
men, to that Of Great Britain, that this
would moi be tolerated by The United
States.
The Spanish inhabitants of Cuba arc
ready and desirous of placing themselves
under the protection of the United States
and in fact, Of forming part of their po.
itcal system, in case they should cease
to be subject to Old Spain. u;
There has been conjecture thai
France had some views upon Cuba ant
ST. Domingo, and even Yucatan. 1t has
been whispered that project is, or was
on foot to unite The Dominicans. tbt
French West Indies, and the people o
Yucatan, under one government, wi Il
a Prince of ffhe Bourbon house for il
King. The new Government, under tn
j protection cf France, would then proceed
to annex 10 itself Hayti and Cuba, form
inS powerful and successful empire 70

Correspondence of the Chas. Courier

wv ASHINGTON, Oci. "a.
The importance 10 The Southern States
of our future relations with the West In
dia Islands cannot be over estimated.
The condition of Cuba and of ST. DO.
mingo is such that they cannot long re-
main as they are. The Spanish Govern
ment cannot much longer hold dominion
over Cuba in opposition TO the designs of
Great Britain. and Haytien affairs are be.
coming so much confused that The strong
arm OF some naval power can alone settle
Them. The United States cannot be pas
i've spectators Of the acquisition Of these
Islands by Great Britain or France. All
OF The West India Islands are naturally
dependent OH Ibis continent, and our trade
with them ought not to be subject to the
caprces of European Governments.
MIR. Wright has been nominated by his
friends in New York for the next Presi-
dency. This is. an important movement.
and one upon which the democracy of

ehuhrry from this lime forward till the
close of the next Presidential campaign.
Its influence will be seen and felt 10 the
measures of Congress at the coming ses-
sion.
The expenditures Of the present fiscal
year are estimated by Mr.. Walker at
thirty millions, and twenty one millions
oil this sum have been expended upon the
navy and army. Is there auy prospect
haf on Il IL
will be less? The revenue is estimated
al twenty seven millions from customs,
the exact amount estimated in 1912 by the
friends of The tariff of that year. The
balance which estimated as remaining in
the Treasury on the first of January next
is seven millions. 1t follows that a con.
siderable reduction of the rate of duties
on imports may be made. provided that
our expenditures be essentially reduced.

OUR RELATIONS WITH ENGLAND

On this subject The Philadelphia Amer,
ican remarks:
MIR. McLane accepted the mission, for
the special purpose Of selIling The Oregon
question, and was promised such instruc-
tons as would induce an admicable treaty
based on mutual concessions. Althogll
the contemplated treaty wasro be signed
in Washington, it was 10 be arranged
entirely in London, and solely by Mr..
McLane on the part Of the United States.
For reasons not very difficult to imagine,
the signing was TO be done in Washington,
whittier Mr. McLane would nave (brwar.
ded the hest terms to be procured, in the
shape of instructions to Mr.. Packenham.
Well Mr.. M'Lean has been until this
time,, waiting the promised instructions,
and, il his patients were Of such enduring
qualify, he would wait until the day of
doom for them. The instructions will not
be sent. The President will shelter him.

and passed by the war party in The House
of Representatives, and the Minister will

Such is The tenor of our advces from
the seat of government; and the character
and position ofour author leaves us in no
doubt as to their correctness.
