TGouBLE WITH SPAIN ExPEcTED.-lt is
generally expected among the diplonatists OF
Paris and London that the mission of MIR.
Soule to Spain will create some serious trou.
bic, if it does not lead 10 war, between the
United States and Spain, before the termina-
tion of his mission ut Madrid. We have
heard from reliable authority that Mr.. Soule,
in passing through Paris, talked very freely
in diplomatic circles of the object and pur-
pose of his going to Spain, and intimated
that he intended to inscribe his name on the
history of his adopted country in such way
rs would not be forgotten in hurry. Some
suppose that his peculiar talents and qual'ii,
cations are very much like those of the Ia.

government of France, created such stir in

AUTuMN.-All that is earthly must fade.
This is an annual lesson, taught by the fall
ing leaf, the whitening frost, the silence which
pcrvadcs the air, and the wreck and decay OF
vegetation rs each recurring autumn assumes
her reign. Another autumn is upon us now.
The tasscls of the corn are dead, and the
husks of the standing ears have lost their
green. The scythe is shearing the hay-iiclds
of their last burden. Small, yellow leaves,
that have exhausted their vitality before the
advent of the frost, are dropping, one by one
from the trees. Flower stalks that but a few
short weeks since stood green and glowing,
bearing proudly up their wealth Of floral
beauty. now stand stark and dead. The first
faint ntima,ions Of approaching dissolution
rest upon all vegetation, yet, amid these
scenes, the fruits of autumn are spread upon
every side. Apples bend from the bough,
nuts wait on the trees for the loosing fingers
of the frost, wains go crcaking home laden
with homrly roots, the granaries are already
filled, and soon, housed and garnered, the
product of the year will await the grateful use
of man and animal.

"MoTHER TOLD ME NOT TO FIGHT.'-Ycs
terday evening, while passing home we oh
served in the street crowd of boys, all np-
parently of very youthful age, engaged in
what we thought u general quarrel, wishing
to find out the nature of the disturbance, we
approached near them. We found that a lad
smaller, than any of the rest, and Of exceed
ingly delicate frame, was the object of ridcule
from his comrades. Just rs we came up to
them, the largest of the boys slapped him in
the face, when simultaneously the lads arm
was raised, his lips compressed and his eyes
flashed iirc-thc very picture of heroic cour-
age and resentment, but checking himself ere
the contemplated blow was struck, he turned
silently away. All the rest cried with one
roice-"coward." Again his eyes flashed
lvid sparks, but conquering his anger after n
struggle, he replied: "Nother told me not TO

preston couclcd in 50 simple languagc.-

is THE WHIG PARTY DEADl

Under this head, the Baltimore Patriot has
an excellent article from which We extract II
few paragraphs. In speaking Of the proceed
ings of the Wing National Convention OF
1852, the writer pays the following tribute to
Daniel Webster and MilIard Fillmore:
"Two men were brought forward, the name
of either of whom could have cnkindcd all
over the land the beacon fires of vigiIant
campaign. For one, all sexes, all ages, all
conditions of our country people cherished Il
fond, proud admiration, which needed no
mock heroic ballads and pictorial lives, to be
awakened into such love rs would have
satisfied even his big heart. and almost limit
less mind. 1t is better for his fame that the
nomination was refused to him, innsmurh MS
posterlv will have full scope for its wonder
at the appreciation of the prophet in his
own time, and trecr vent for the retrlbutive
gratitude which shall blot out the votes of
that parliamentary Pandem"nium from the
permanent annals Of politics.
Against the other of the two cjcctcd
names, what lip so vile MS to breathe either
IN accusation or IN invcrtive! What Charge
secretly or openly. was preferred against
nre-wh1t veto. or what sanction of ms, had
disiranchiscd him of the party favor! Men
called him the model President. All VIII"
approached within the charmed circle of his
presence, WIS won by the pleasing simplicity
of his manners, the honest, manly "pennrss
of face, that lost nothing of its intrllrctu-
alty because more comely than the most of
those we look upon-thr full recognition OF
the elevation of his office. and the republican
department which seemed t" have fitted that
office for him, and not him, at Il moments no.
ticr. for the office. Mr.. Fillmore WAS not
only respected; We give respect to those
whose attributes elicit no tender atirction-he
WAS loved, and in the Southern States cspr.
cia'Iv. no man. since the zenith days of the
golden mouthrd Cav hid received such II
full devotion from the ardent chivarous sons
OF the South"
The same article concludes as follows:
"'rhr whig party dead No, gentlemen
not so long rs the Constitution stands ey-
posed to the NanCkil assaults of our modern
inn"vators-not 50 long us the bases, pandcr-
inu of denIayogtriSin calls for aniidotrs and

eB- A gentleman brought an action re-
Gently in one of the Ohio courts against the
owners of steamboat on which he had lost
a trunk containing $4,000. The court held
that they were bound to pay for the loss of
ordinary baggage, but not for any thing of
unusual value, unless it was made known
to them beforehand, so that they could take
extra care, and charge an extra price for car
rying it. Accordingly, the jury brought in
verdict allowing him S3OO-the value Of
the trunk and the clothing in it-but disal-
lowing the $4,000.
