The London Times, in the course of a
invasions chronicled in the worlds hso-
~, admits that s'The success Of the British
force that dashed up the Potomac, landed,
and after quick march, destroyed Wash
ngton, and then as speedily beat retreat,
can hardly be considered an affair of legiti-
mate warfare, being little more than pratt
cal and fruilless surprise on an unarmed and
unsuspec'ing population" This is note
worthy confession.

Their observes tina! Soule, since The reins.ate-
ment Of Espartero into power, has no hope
of favorable settlement of the Cuban ques
lion, unless aided by decisive measures from
Washington: He does not believe, how
ever, tina. the Queen can hold the power
long and he has strong hope Of the ulI-
mate success Of the republican cause. No
proposition has We. been made to sell Gu
ba and it is not believed that the presen,

the most eminent Physicians of Paris, in their ex-
tensive practice in the Hospitals, by order of the
French Government, and by great number of

Wharf.-The Baltimore american says :
"The farmers have had their anliciparions
of high prices for this years crop so great
ly elevated that there is general DISPOSE
ton among them to hold back their wheat
in the hope that prices will yet 60 up 10 8
figure eomewha. in keeping with their ex-
pectations. The result of This is an abso-
lutte scarcity of wheat in the whea.-growing
districts, and one or two parcels have lately
been sold from Baltimore to be returned to
the interior Of the country, in order to keep
the mills there in operation. Flour he's also
recently been sen, from Baltimore to Cum
berland, and corn TO Frederick and Hagers-
town. These singular transactions, revers-
ing the usual course Of trade, indicate that
the farmers feel the Independent. position in
which the high prices and resdy sale ofsheir
las, years crops has placed them, and that
they are impressed with The idea that by
holding back they will secure higher mar
ket later in the season. Our agriculiuris.s,
though always prepared to condemn city
spectators, are not themselves above the
exciting bait, and generally plunge into the
strife with an esgerness and excitement .ha.
is particularly calculated to insure defeat in
business especially calling for GOODNESS
and close calculation. What will be the
result, of their present movemen, we do not
venture even 10 guess, but II is certain that

EsPARrERo.-This distinguished Spani-
ard is said TO be very in,eIIigen, and able
man, and has already done good service TO
his country. "He was the great supporter
Of Chrislano, agains, the absolulism of Don
Carlos. For his grea. service he was made
Regent of Spain, which position he held for
six years, and his administration was mark
ed with wisdom, and tendency to liberal
m easures. He was expelled by series of
disgraceful n'rigues, and retired to England.
While in exile he made no effort to disturb
the government, de facto Of his country; and
continuing the same line Of conduct, after
his return to Spain, he never violated the
terms Of his recall" Tha, such man is
placed at the head of The revolution, leads
US to hope for The establishment of q. least
a constitutional government in Spain, which
would certainly be beneficial not only to
that unhappy country, but 10 all Europe

TROPHIES OF THE MAINE LAW.-One
Of The editors Of the National Tempe rance
Organ, Cincinnati, has visited Portland,
Maine, end seen for himself some of ",be
ruinous consequences" Of the Maine Law
These he describes SO graphically, that
we will 10. him speak for himself:
"Among the most eloquen, things we saw,
were the ruins Of several 'dis.ill, ries. A
few years ego, they flourished on the ruins
of domestic peace and happiness now, the
family smiles DER their leveled and dilap-
idated remains. Let those who doubt The
efficiency Of the Maine Law, go and see
the old watts and walls crumbIing into dus',
leaving no trace of the dark spo. where
misery and death were brewed for the hui
man family; and then be forever silen,
as the operation of that law. We had sew
efal friends. who, 10 satisfy their curiosity,
went round into every hole and corner OF
the city, and endeavored, by every crafty
means, TO obtain liquor, bu, were unable TO
succeed in single instance. This, we
into conversation with gentleman who
was an arden. opposer Of the law from the
start, and he took walk with US up into q
part the city which is settled exclusively by
Irish. He said before the law passed, thai.
it was collection of miserable novels, occu.
pied by pi.iful and worthless Sc, of fami-
lies bu. now there are neat and comfor Ia
BILE dwellings there, and The inhabitants are
frugal, industrious and peaceable. This
change, he said, could be attributed to no
other cause than The Maine Law. Before,
they spent their money for whisky; now.
they save it for livelihood. With ell the
cunning end stra'agem Of the liquor party,
we think in no instance have they been
successful in eluding the vigilance of the
law"
