Stay AT HoME.--The greatest folly any one

chants and men Of business are doing nobly in
the way of supplying themselves ana already

sure, it is a convenient thing to look over the
newspapers Of another city, and select the arti-
Giles needed, and SO order them without further
trouble; but some of our own citizens have
promised to adopt the advertising system this
fall, and in them the public will find fair deal

CUBA AND THE CUBANs THE present or re-
cent Cuban excitement has produced at least
one good result, in correcting our knowledge Of
the condition and disposition of the people of
that island We were under the impression
that they were oppressed; but many of our
brother editors in this country have ascertained
that this is all a fiction. We were under the
impression that they were dissatisfied; but it
has been ascertained that this too is all a
fabrication. Indeed we are daily admonished by
these editors that no people can be found more
loyal, nor more thoroughly attached to their gov
eminent and its institutions. 1t is pleasant to
be set right on important points like these, and to
be assured that our future conducts to be guided
by infallble certainties; yet we must be permit
ted to express our wonder at the fact that the
Spanish government should have fallen into the
same errors by which we have been blinded. That
government confdes none Of the civil Offices of
the island to native Cubans, but places over
them as worthy Of their respect, confidence,
honor, and fees, a horde Of Spanish dignitaries;
it vouchsafes to them also very numerous and
inquisitive priesthood from the same country !;
and it places over them, too--of course for
their protection "a standing army of twenty
thousand soldiers! All these are maintained
by the Cubans, who send to Spain very hand
some annual revenue besides-how willingly We
cannot say.
To argue from all this, firstly, that the Gu
bans have cause to desire emancipation, and
secondly, that Spain is conscious Of the fact
was of course hasty and rash process with US
of which our brother editors are now most be-
nignantly convincing us; and from them we re-
ceive 50 agreeable and cheering portraiturt
Of Cuba and the Cubans, that we could really
find it in our hearts to wish them transported
thither to participate in the enjoyment Of 81
pleasant state Of affairs, knowing as we d.
that if any little privation they might there en-
counter should prove in the least annoying
their dog like servility to her Catholic Majest,
and her myrmidons would sweeten the cup o
their sorrows, and render easy the yoke Of theil
well deserved bondage.

The literary echo. (Westerly, R.I.) 1851-1851, 1851-07-24

ANSWER YOUR LETTERs.-Time which
has once passed the corner, can never be
overta.len, and anything that can as we'll
be performed to-day, as at future time,
is deprived of one of the chances of its ac-
complishment which can never be restor-
cd.
An observance of the maxim here in
culcated is very important in the answer
ing of letters. The prompt man of busi-
ness, who makes it rule to reply to a let
ter Immediately upon its receipt, or as soon
after as the nature of its contents will ad-
NIT, never oifends others, and is never
borne down with the weight of his cores
pondcnce. The procrastinator, on the
other hand, is constantly giving umbrage
by neglecting other peoples business, or
by sighting the requirements of friend
ship, and is, beside, often obliged to resort
to whole paragraphs of lame apology, and
sometimes Of falsehood, to conceal what
his correspondent very soon learns how to
place to the proper account. And beside
all this, his unanswered letters are con-
stantly haunting him, and operate like q
dead weight upon his comfort.
The literary echo. (Westerly, R.I.) 1851-1851, 1851-07-24

In the first season of her mothers illness,
Alice forgot all else in her anxiety for her,
but as she gradually learned that there
was no cause for alarm, and that care and
time were alone needed to restore her, her
heart grew heavy with the recollection, thai
to one with the health and spirits Of Fred,
their home would now hardly be very cheer
full. He had shared her anxiety at the first,
and had devo ed himself afectionately to
her, as well as to his mother, but she felt
that as time past away, and he found the
house always quiet in the evening, and she
perhaps often watching in her mothers
room, there would be other places more
cheerful and al!uring than his home.
1t was bitter trial to Alice, but her
faith was in Him who doeth all things
WE'LL" and she felt that it was only for her
to do the duty revealed to her, and trust
to Him for the result. She had discovered
that with all Frederic's graces and noble
traits, the grand fault of his character was
a lack of firmness, and she meekly trusted
that the future mi ght develcpe and strength
en- principle that would overcome this
weakness.
1t proved indeed as Alice had feared
the evenings became more and more rare,
which Frederic spent at home, and had it
not been for the daily society of her warm
hearted friend Mary, who added to her
pleasure and happiness in many ways, she
would have been very lonely. 1t might
have been well, perhaps if this friend had
not been so often with his sister, for it af-
forded Fred an excuse to himself, wheney-
er he had any compunctious visitings for
going out to seek the society of his friends.
He usually came home on these evenings
at an early hour, and Alice had happy
consciousness, that the excess which she
had so mourned, had never been repeated,
and it was more the ultimate than the i'm
mediate consequences of this fondness for
convivial life, that she most feared.
ITO be Concluded)
