g The New York Sun intimates that
the Cubans will have some serious work to
perform about the 4th of July next, and
that the Spanish government will requi,e
the services of all the force it can concen-
trate there on that occasion. This force
will be pretty large. 10000 well equipped

nearly the whole Spanish navy is on its

A precious confession of Bank rascality
by Whig organ!

We find the following, says the Ohio
Patriot, in the New Lisbon Palladium, the
regular wing bank organ of Columbiana
county.-The confession of rascality which
is unreservedly made by this whig paper,
confirms what the democratic press have
uniformly held in regard to Keley's State
Bank and its branches. What is said COZ
corning the Salem bank, may be affirmed
with safety in relation to every other SINH
lar institution in the State. They are a
gang Of legalized swindling shops, and the
fleeing which they do against lam, is
scarcely more oppressive than that which
their charter authorizes. The old adage
swhen rogues fall out, honest men may get
their due,'' is forcibly called to mind by the
appearance of the following developement
in the columns of a whig paper. Such an
exposure would never have appeared in
that quarter except for the rivalry that ex-
lists between the Jenningses at Salem and
tAc1l dFdIlClouS lullatOIS at NEW LISBON.
Salem Branch.
We learn from reliable source, that le-
gal proceedings are about being instituted
against the Salem Branch for the violation
Of its charter. A distinguished lawyer of
Pennsylvania, together with some of the
best legal men of this State, have been re-
tanned to assist the Attorney General (Mr.
stanbury) in the prosecution. 1t is said
that the charges preferred will be clearly
and fully established, and the inevitable re-
suit must be to deprive the bank Of its
charter. From some cause or another, this
bank is in bad odor with the public; and
if but tithe of the complaints and charges
made are well grounded, it ought to be de-
prived of its charter. The public interest,
as well as the fair fame of the State Bank
and Branches, demand tit affords us
pleasure to express our confidence in the in
tegrity of the Cashier and some of the Di-
rectors of the Salem Bank; the acts of 9th
ers we suppose, will be subjects of investi-
cation. The case will be up 70. trial be-
fore the Supreme Court, for this county. in
October; and the lawyers engaged here ex-
press their confidence as to the result

We have attended the whole course of Lee
lures given by Mr.. Fowler, and have been in
tercsted and instructed by them We regard the
advent OF Mr. Fowler to this city as forming an
era in the history of Milwaukee, The Free
Congregational Church, n which these lectures
have been delivered, has been crowded to It's ut
most capacity every evening, with the excep-
ton OF Friday evening, which was so bosterous
that IN ordinary circumstances no meeting would
nave been held, and on that evening there was
very good attendance.
At the close Of last (Monday) evenings lee
ture, series of Resolutions-which will be-
found in another coIumn--were adopted unani-
mously, and with hearty good will that show
ed how well his lectures were appreciated.
These lectures we regard as exceedingly use
iul in three aspects
/. They have disseminated a great amount of
physiological intormation-the knowledge of the
laws OF health-and have enforced the duty of
obedience to those laws by the strongest pract-
cal considerations
3 They have awakened the public mind to
the Investigation of the laws which govern men
as physical, intellectual and moral beings-haye
melted men to think by furnishing food for
thought, and have taught by the most powerful.
reasons, the truth that ''the proper study of man
kind is man"
d lhcy nave demonstrated that scientific lee
lures can be made more Interesting and altrac-
tive than the play house, and have developed a
taste for lectures Of scientific and literary cast
which IS highly complimentary to both the Lee
turer aud his audience, and is an earnest of fu-
tura Improvement.

Shade and Fruit Trees.

Now IS the time Of the year to think Of orna-
menting our streets and gardens with the growth
OF the nursery and the forest. Who does not
admire the looks of the beautiful and luxuriant
foliage Of the locust maple, beech and ash, as
they shake their leafy tops in the breath Of the
Summers wind Who does not admire the
sweet breath of the lilac, mingled with the per-
fumc Of the rose Who does not love the
fruit Of the Isabella and Catawba, as they blush
ingly hide themselves under the widespread
leaves that screen the garden house from the
melting rays Of the summer sun? Whose
mouth does not water as he thinks Of the deli
cioUs richness of the Damson, and the iuicv
sweetness Of the nameless varieties of Peaches,
t.at the months Of August ard September ma
tur5 Who in fine does not love the fruits Of
the nursery, from the CT rant to the apple, and
the vegetable the garden which contribute, in
50 great degree to the health and happiness of
men We wish there might lg general mania
on this subject Of setting out trees. tits not ey-
cry body that has garden, Owing to the seven
5y-nine lots the village is laid out in,) but every
body who has lot, we believe, has a street on
one side of it, and him we boseech to set out
trees on the edge CT the side walk protect them
! for a few years and the pay will be a hundred
per cont-bcth in beauty and utility 1t will
also be good time, soon, to repair if possible
the havoc in the cemetery. Let all who own lots
set out the yew and the ash, and the tree OF
Heaven, as well as those fragrant, blossom-bear-
ing shrubs, whose odor is the sweet incense
which nature offers to God.
In another column will be seen notice, that
oar friends are moving in the matter of IIor icul-
ture; we wish their object embraced enough OF
arboriculturo to secure the end contemplated in
these few remarks. We believe if there were
depot for the sale of shade trees, the conmu.
nifty would not fail to procure them and setthem
out. There has been great Difficulty in procur
ing them. We believe if any individual will
make it business, to go into the forest and get
them and keep them where they can be got at
that enough could be sold to pay well. c.

The Wisconsin Free Democrat, relates the
following incident which occurred at the recent
"cavlng in" of Spring street bridge, across the
river, il that city:
Our friend, Dr. W L Farmer, was on the
side path on the centre Of the part which gave
way, and seeing the wagons and horses pitching
toward him and likely to crush him, sprang about
SIX feet from the falling tnbers into the river,
and after taking nice cold bath, swan to the
broken Iinbers, clambered out, and came up to
our office like duCked rat, ard was furnished
with change Of raimert. Possibly the duck
ing saved him fit Of sickness At any rate
we consider him now qualified to practice as

Congress was bound to receive four new slave
states out of Texas, if her people choose.
Mr.. Hale asked Dir. Webster whether it was
competent for Congress 10 enter into any such
compact with Texas, the latter then being a for
