Oy THE DESTINY oE CuBA.-A Southern member
of Congress met abroad, last summer, very veal
thy and intelligent Spaniard, formerly It Cuba, a
son-in- Law of General ODonnell, who told him
that such movement as that of Lopez would fail
now, but might have succeeded If attempted as
long ago 1899. Spain was, he SAID, now watch
full, and prepared for all emergencies in regard to
her interests in the island and had the assurance
of naval and military aid TO any extent, from Eng
land and France. But that still the Spanish Gov
ernment was well aware tina. the island must atte1
n few years be lost TO Spain, and that contiguity
and commercial interest must III time connect the
island with the United States but that before that
could happen the island would be devastated, laid
waste, and all the inhabitants of European blood
massacred or expelled for as soon as 1t should
become evident that the island could be no longer
held by Spain, against the revolutonists, at any
reasonable rate of annual expense, the Government
would proclaim liberty TO all the slaves, and put
them in possession of the arsenal with all the arms
and military stores.
The slaves in Cuba cannot be judged of by any
comparison with the civilized and humanized slaves
of the United States. They are of new importa-
ton for the most part and are barbarous and cruel;
and, having no sympathy with the white or mixed
race, would take upon them all alike an unsparing
and merciess revenge.
A little more ilbustering on the part of our peo-
pie, and little negligence or mprudence on the
part of our Government, would bring about the
state of things thus portrayed-N. Y. Express.

BY HENRY w. LoNGFELLow. -
The day Is done, and the darkness
Falls from the wings OF night,
As feather is waited downward
From an eagle in his flight.
l sec the light OF the village
CLEAN through the rain and the mist,
And feeling OF sadness comes DER INC,
That my soul cannot resist;
\ feeling of sadness and longing, %
That is not akin to pain,
But resembles sorrow only
AS the mist resembles the rain.
Come. read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soOthc this restless ieennS,
And Danish the thoughts oil day
Not from the grand old masters,
Not from the bards sublime, ~.
Whose distant footsteps echo
Through the corridors OF Time.
For, like strains ofmartiai music,
Their mighty thoughts suggest
Lies endless toll and endeaVor,
And tonight long for rest.
Read from some humber poet,
Whose songs gush from his heart
As showers from the clouds OF summer,
Or tears from the cyelds start.
Who, through long days OF Dor,
And nights devoid ofcase,
Still heard in his soul the music
or wonderful melodies.
Such songs have power to quiet
This restless pulse care,
And come like the benedction
That follows after prayer.
Then read from the treasured volume,
The poem OF thy choice,
And lend TO the rhyme OF the poet
The beauty OF thy voice.
And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that iniest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.

Locoroco JUcGLrNG.-Tse doctrine of internal
improvements is very popular up in the North, and
so the Cleveland Plaindealer, one OF the most VIC
lent of the Locofoco organs talks after this fashion:
"The Wings, who have been clustering and ly-
ing about Democracy and rivers and harbors so long
have their game blocked now. A Democratic House
of Representatives has passed, by large majority,
a bill making series of judicous appropriations"
The doctrine of internal Improvements is unpo-
pular among the Democracy of the South, and so
the Richmond Examiner, speaking of the bill
while it was pending in Congress, talked after this
fashion:
"This bill is the first of the sort that has been
passed for long time, and it will be the last for
four years at least. franklin Pierce will come in
to power on the 4th of next March. A strict con-
Struction and respect for the Constitution IS the
AIedean law of the Democratic party, and Mr..
Pierce, besides that general reason, is bound by
every idea of consistency and by every fact OF his
past career, to veto every bill like this. He will
do it, if they presented TO him, Just so sure as
there is sun in the sky.''
All the Northern Democratic organs talk like
the Cleveland Piandeaier, and all the Southern
Democratic organs talk like the Richmond Eram-
iner while the whole Democracy, North and South
alike, swear by the internal improvement resolution
of the Baltimore platform.-Phia. Netrs.

murder of his father by stabbing, which has been
progressing in the Supreme Court in Massachusetts
for Several days past, was concluded on Thursday
morning, when the jury returned verdict OF
"guilty." The PARTICLE received his sentence
which is, thathe be executed at such time as the
Executive Government of that State may determine.
The result was unexpected to the prisoner, whose
crime appears to have been committed when he
was under the influence of liquor. ,,

General scott and the Treasury.

Mr.. Merriweather, the short-term Senator from
Kentucky, and his coadjutors OF the Democratic
,,.ss have ,rra;rned General Scott for having re-
ceived certain allowance from the. Government IN
aid of his expenses during trip TO Europe in 1876
when he was charged with important public nego-
tiations. On looking into this matter, we find, as
we find in all directions when We examine Gener-
al SCOTS character and transactions, testimo-
nv 10 his deserts. Had it not been for the attack
of these Democratic worthless on General Scott 1t
is probable that the following letter from James
Monroe would not have fallen under our eye. Let
those who say that General Scott has rendered no
civil services" read the document, and circulate
it among their neighbors - Washington Republic.

49, WASHINGTON, June IS, 1916.
Dear Sir: 1t is decided to settle your clam on
the Government on the principle established by the
Department OF War, before your departure ior Eu
rope, in such manner that you may sustain no ioss
by depreciation of paper or untavorable exchange.
AS soon as you designate person to act iof YOU
the account will be setted.
Your communications while abroad were very
interesting The opportunities which you MAD OF
deriving information from military men OF Mgh
rank, especially in the Prussan army, OF the views
of the several powers, at Crisis the most important
and extraordinary that has occurred IN modern
times, were peculiarly favorable; andl gives me
pleasure to state that the zeal and judgment with
which YOU improved them for the advantage OF
Your country, gave great satisfaction.

ing rs to his experience of the value of blowing in
Clover for Wheat 1t is worthy the attention OF the
the general farmer:
sIn the summer of 1852, l had small field of
A.! acres in clover, which pastured awhile, and
then let the clover grow until it was fit TO cut for
seed With large pillow and three strong horses
pillow it eIcctually, and then let it lie until 2Sth
of September, when seeded. In the harvest of
1850, cut 135 dozen of Wheat, which yielded 165
bushel or 36a bushels per 1t did not require
to be seeded with clover the next season. 1plowed
it down last season again, and the wheat now looks
fine although part was winter killed. tits prop
TO state that the crop of Wheat was on 1t before
the blowing, was not over ten bushels per acre.

Kossuru! What of Kossuths Itisso long since
we have heard his name mentioned that we were
afraid to look in the London bills OF morahy, lest
we should discover him "down among the dead
men," The newspapers there never give us an
inkling even of his illustrious whereabouts, and
those veracious chroniclers, "our own correspon-
dents'' of the American press, have never syla-
BILE to throw away upon him. Where is he?-
What is he doing? How comes on that pressing
business he was in such great hurry to get to Eu
gland to attend 10! All these are inquiries that
have been frequently put here, more out of Gu
riosity than anxiety, that it gives great pleasure
TO relieve the socitude of those seeking for nfor-
nation.
We learn, then, from passenger by the Euro
pa, that the great Magyar is living in a private
boarding house in back street jim London, with
out in the least degree troubling himself about
Continental politics, the Intervention question:
nor the solidarity of the peoples. The French
Italian, and Hungarian exiles with which the
British metropolis SwarmS, II is said. are less III
the habit of looking to him for council and advice
now than 10 Mazzini. Kossuth, they argue, with
great plausbiity, has SO opened the eyes OF abso-
utism on the continent that is morally and phySi-
cally impossible that any scheme for the revival
of revolution can succeed under his management.
His speeches and hnrrangueS i'll the United States
they say, have only had the effect to show hlngs
and Princes their weak places and tn put them up
on their guard against popular innovations, as pom
tedout and enforced by kossuth. AS leader
therefore, his prestige, his influence, his name Is
gone.
The London police, nevertheless, are instructed
to keen Il sharp eye on the movements OF the Mag
var But so far they have had no occasion to IN
terfere with him; taking for granted that he IS no
longer in the confidence OF the eX IN England as
we have stated. 1t is believed he has means enough
at his command to enable him and his family to
spend the rest their days in peace and comfort pr
vate residents of Iondon.-Neio York Express.
