The Instig.tors OF tn. C.ban Invasion

The Instigators OF the Cuban Invasion.
We learn from the Picayune that. on the assem-
bling of the circuit court at New Orleans on the
18th instant, the grand jury appeared in their
seats, and business being laid before them, they
retired to their room.
The court asked if there was any further bust
ness before the court. Mr.. Henderson stated that
he should insist upon another trial in his case Mr..
Hunton resisted, and said the cause could not be
tried this term; he would willingly continue il
until the next term of the court, and perhaps by
that time Congress might pass act allowing ju-
rors to be drawn from the district instead Of the
parish, as it now exists. Application had been
been made to the Louisiana delegation to change
the law with this view; and if the case were con-
tinucd until next term, no doubt the act would be
passed by that time. Out of seven hundred and
sixty jurors summoned, he had only obtained
twenty four jurors and it was impossible to get
jury from the parish.
oeneral Henderson objected to continuance of
his case, and insisted that the court should proceed
with his trial.
Mr. Hunton suggested to the court that Governor
Quitman was present and required a speedy trial
Governor Quitman replied that he ready TO
submit his cause to any impartial tribunal; and al
though he was anxious TO be tried, he nevertheless
waived his right in confederation Of the better
claim Of General Henderson, who had been twice
before the court.
The court then ordered the marshal to summon
venrc of two hundred jurors, and that ninety
sxjurors be in attendance by the 18th instant, when
the trial ofGeneral Henderson would again proceed.
The court then adjourned

FEMALE DocroHs.-Mrs. Sarah ].
Hale, in an article in Godcy's Ludy's
Book for August. takes strong ground
fin favor Of the practice of medicine by
females. She says there are few
self-evidCnt propositions and it would
be questioning the common sense Of
mankind TO doubt the general belief on
these points. O.c is, that women arc
by nature better qualified than men TO
take charge Ct the sick and suffering /;
II second, that mothers should know the
best means of preserving the health Of
their children; aud third point is.
that female phy cians are the proper AT =
PENDANTS for their own Sex in til. hour

General Scott reached this charming
place yesterday afternoon. lie came
without any ostentation, accompanied
only by a servant. | have not seen him
look SO well for several years; and on
my saying to him how much better his
health Was than when l saw him at
Saratoga three years since, he remark
ed that he was then suffering from the
disease which lie had brought back
from Mexico-from which disease YOU
will recollect SO many Of our brave SOL
diers found graves far from their homes.
When remarked TO him that this was
the most beautiful and healthful season
in the mountains, urging him to remain
two or three weeks, he replied that un-
less he received dispatches the urgen-
cy OF his official duties would not allow
him to remain more than week. lis
visit here is solely TO get relief from a
lccal affection, for which the waters are
well adapted.
lie reached Stanton last Friday
evening unexpectedly TO the citizens
but, rs soon as his arrival was known,
An enthusiastic crowd called at his lodg-

make short speech. The President
