& SPAIN ADVISED TO SELL CUBA.--MADRID
September 20.-AIf it be true as asserted and
generally believed, that the United States are
prepared to givea very large sum for the island
of Cuba, is it not worth the consideration oil
the Spanish government whether the loss OF
the revenue derived from that colony would
not be much more than compensated by the
immense improvements at home that the pur.
chase money would enable her to make. But,
if Cuba were sold with this view, other points
must be made sure Of First, the duration OF
an honest government; and secondly, reduc-
ton ofthe duties on foreign manufactures. A
government like that of which the July revo-
luton fortunately rid Spain, would play, at
ducks and brakes with the Yankee dollars; q
tariff such as at present here exists would GER
tainlynot induce foreign countries to offer
Spain advantages for the sale Of her produce.
This is an old theme, but tcannot too often
be reverted to. Among the most intelligent,
honest and unprecedented men in Spain, there
is only one opinion as to the sources whence
she should derive herprosperity--namely, from
her endless stores of corn and wine, oil and
fruit, from the riches Of her teeming soil and
glorious climate, and not from the publishing
tissues Of Catalan manufacturers. ~ Correspond.

Rev. Turo. CLAP, of New Orleans in re-

When ct Dorehester was introduced to

She is a sister OF Mrs. Tileston. / wish that
my words could convey to your readers some
adequate idea Of her personal appearance.
But have no talents for this kind Of descrip-
ton. Miss Cummins, to my taste, is very
beautiful. She is of middling statue, fair com.
plexion, soft, delicate auburn hair; cheeks with
red and white delicatsly blended; eyes clear,
blue and beaning With intelligence. The form
Of her person is Symmetrical, elegent and digni-
fed. Her conversation is easy, natural and I'M
affected. Indeed simplicity. is the browning
ornament to her manners, as well as her writ
inga Though possessed Of superior genius, a
lively fancy, and brilliant imagination, she is
perfectly free from pedantry, and all those arts
of display whichsare dictated by the love odds

ance is more richly endowed with those mild,
social, refined and gentle qualities which, in
the view of our sex, generally constitute the
principle beauty of the female character 4

EsT- When it is remembered that the Demo
cratic party had TO encounter, single handed
in the elections that have lately taken place, the
allied forces of every faction in the country,
there is not so much occasion for dependency
as one might suppose, who only contemplated
the result without considering the means by
which il was accomplished. The defeat in the
elections that took place on the 10th instant is
certainly Democratic defeat; but whose is the
victory? What single party can claim III
None. Nor can any party stand up before the
country and assert its control over the COM
bined forces that only left of sighting each other
for time, in order 10 assail the Democracy.
The oppositionis q motley and ill-assorted band.
II is piebald and speckled, and when the time
comes for distributing the spoils, there will be
a clamor like that Of Babel, soon to be followed
by general dispersion.
u is honorable TO the Democratic party that
il was selected by all The isms as the object Of
their united attack. 1t shows that there is no
sympathy and no affinity between Democracy
and unsound factions. When the sound men
of the country who only desire TO know the
truth in order TO follow il, shall see thisand il
is now plain and palpable even to the dullest
and the most distrustful--taen may we expect
them to ally themselves with us. We mar
also reasonably expect those who have been
deluded and deceived into the opposition by
designing demagogues, to como back and aid
us in overthrowing them. There Is one thing
certain, and il is that the combination against
the Democratic party cannot hang together.
Patience, discipline, energy, and vigilance are
all that we need at the present time. y
