thought it advisable, considering the imPor-
tapce of the subject, to direct me to unfold at
some length, he feels constrained to decline
respectfully the invitation of England, and
France to become parties to the proposed con-
vention. He is persuaded that these friendly
Powers will not attribute this refusal to any In
sensbility on his part to the advantages of tho
utmost harmony between the great maritime
States on a subject of such importance. As lit
tie will Spain draw any unfavorable inference
from this refusal; the rather as the emphatic dis
claimer of any designs against Cuba on the part
of this Government, contained in the present
note, affords all the assurance which the Pres
ident can constitutonaly. or to any useful pur-
pose give of practical concurrence with
England and France in the wish not to disturb
the possession of that island by Spain.

| The New SILVER CoiN.-The Express Agents
of MeSSrs. Adams & Co. have been engaged for
some days past in transporting to different parts OF
| the country considerable sums of the new silver
currency, drawing from the Mint it is Sid, some
fifty thousand dollars daily. The banks of the
principal cities thus rapidly becoming possess
ed of sufficient amount for all current purposes
and will shortly be able to supply the wants OF the
| community at large.
The great inconvenience which has of late been
experienced everywhere from the scarcity of silver
coin has not, except at few points, arisen more
| from the inadequacy of the supply than from a
vague apprehension among those whose gains and
funds are usually in silver. These have feared to
part with the small coins they have boarded from
the moment they perceived slight difficulty in OBJ
tanning change, and SO large amount of them
were distracted from circulation. AS soon as il is
perceived that no objection lies against exchanging
silver for gold, or approved bank notes, we shall
feel the convenience, at market and in petty trans
actions, of rapidly increasing flow of the smaller
coins.
We have seen no specimens of the new curren-
cy except the quattel Of dollar. This resembles
closely the old coin, and but for its brightness
would pass without particular notice.. The chief
differences are that each side of the date, 1858,
are arrow heads; and from the upper part of the
sitting figure of Liberty rays emanate as from the
sun. Perhaps the milling-that is, the indenta-
ton at the edge-is not distinctly and finely
done as in the earlier coins. This may arise, how
aver. from the unusual urgency of the work at the
Mint in the effort to afford Immediately supply
of silver equal to the demands of the whole COM
munity.-Nat. Intel.

EXPLOSION OF GAs-REMARKABLE EscApE.-We
learn that an accident, which came very near pro
wing quite serious, occurred at the house of Henry
Atkins, Esq, No. 10 Bedford street, last evening
The gas fixtures in an ante room connected with
the paror had been repaired during tue day, and
had been left that the gas escaped freely. About
dusk son of Mr.. Atkins entered the room from
the parlor. with lighted lamp, and instantly the
gas exploded causing most frightful scene of des-
lor windows were blown out, one of the heavy
narlor doors were broken, and the drapery of the
room Instantly set on fire. The young man who
carried the lamp was scorched, and daughter of
most fortunately serious injury was sustained by
either. The fire communicated to the t,rapery wa
put out in little while,and what threatened TO be
conflagration was happily avoided. The premi-
ses show sad scene of havoc, and it is really re-
markable that more serious result was moi mo-
duced by the explosion and tiame.-Boston Trans

'"TmE WORD SELAH.''-The translators of the
Bible have left the Hebrew word Selah, which
occurs SO often in the Psalms, as they found it.
and, of course, the English reader often asks his
minister, some learned friend, what it mea rs
And the minister or friend has most often been
obliged TO confess ignorance, because it is mat
ter in regard to which the most learned have by
no means been OF one mind. The Targums and
most of the Jewish commentators give the word
meaning eternaity, foreuer. Rabbi Kinchi regards
it as sign to raise the voice. The authors OF the
septaugnt translation appear to have regarded it
musical sign, equivalent perhaps TO the word
repeat. According to Luther and Others it means
silence. Genus explains it to mean, Let The in
struments play and the singers stop. Wochem re-
CARDS it as equivalent TO sursum coraa up my soul!
Summer, after examining all the seventy four pos
sngcs in which the word occurs, recognizes i'll ev-
cry case. 'an actual appeal or summons to Jeho-
vah.' They are calls and prayers TO be heard, ex
pressed with either entire drectness. or if not the
| imperative. 'Hear, Jehovahn or Awake, Jeh o.
yah! and the like still earnest addresses TO God
tina; he would remember and hear, &c. The word
itself he regards as indicating blast Of trumpcts
by the priests. Selah itself he thinks abridged
expression, used for tiggaion Seah. litigation in.
dlcating the sound Of the stringed instruments,
and Selah vigorous blast Of trumpet:

four horns. In all other respects, it is formed as
eats very heartily with either mouth. Some three
OF four hundred persons have been to look at, and
all consider it a very great curiosity. Such man
as Barnum, could, have no doubt, make fo.-.

STEAMER JULIA DEAN Survive learn from
the Memphis Wing that the Julia Dean wss sunk
on Sunday week in White river, about twelve
miles above Pocahontas, Arkansas, by striking a
rock or stump. Her timbers were broken in from
neal the hatch TO the aft end of the boilers, caus-
ing her to sink in ten or fifteen minutes in water
nearly up to her main deck. tits thought she can
be raised again if the river does not rise. She was
insured for $1,000.
