A friend Of Mr.. Soule, the American Min
lister to Spain, lately gave publicity TO a
letter to Mr.. Mason, in Paris, written bv
Soule, on his being refused passage through
France, which, in its tone and spirit, shows
how much personal feeling was involved in
the matter there. We quote the follwing
"This case will not admit of any equiv oc a.

The Weekly News, published at Rising
Sun, Ind. breathed its last, with the issue of
the Odd Dec. We regret to see SO well
conducted paper, and so clever an editor be
compelled to "sus pend" for want of support.
Dir. Scott designs evidently, from the follow
ing extract from his validictory, to soon re-
appear in some more propitious field for ed
itorial usefulness.
The present number of the News closes its
existance in Rising Sun. For many good
reasons are we induced to make this change.
In the first place, Rising sun never has, (nor
do we believe it ever wilD support newspa-
per as it should Le supported-for we have
had the largest subscription, advertising, aud
job patronage of any paper ever published in
this place, and it has failed to pay us more
than mere living; in fact, hardly that.
Here an inferior sheet may drag out an ex-
istence-but no kind can really ire.

at other places sufficient to support US well

the old farmer in the fable, who depended on

The northern plank road might receive
some attention, and come very appropriately
under the above caption. The old man at
the toll gate gives rather an amusing &C.
count of the way in which the twenty dol
lars week tolls are disposed of. Some of
our citizens have been much amused by the
recital.
Some of the omnibusses charge quarter
for taking passengers from the depot. This
is little ahead of big cities generally.
The attempt of fledgling to prove that
our souls are corruptable, has drawn a smile
from many OF our citizens during its publica
ton; however such publications are calcu-
lated to iujure youth. Brilliant geniuses
ought to try their prentice hands on some
thing less mischievous, and better calculated
to show ;heir knowledge to advantage.

least 700 ahead north of the Kansas

reported to be 20 or so votes ahead
The election was evidently controlled by
votes imported for the purpose from Mis-

The Message.

A good share of our columns is occu-
pied this week, with the annual message
of the President. 1t is a plain docu-
ment,rather subdued in tone, without any
great vigor of manner or special interest
of matter A peaceful inclination is
manifested towards other nations, the
Grey town cxploit-which is defended at
length-having apparently satisfied the
Executive thirst for military glory.
On the whole, the Message seems to
create very little sensation. destitute as
it is Of any strong points. The Wash
inston lctter-writers say that, at the
capital, it is considered a tame affair.
The New York Ttmcs says it is com.
mon-placo in style aud substance" The
party organs of course approve it, aud no
others find much in 1t to ccnsure Our
rcadcrs-those of them who have pa.
ticncc to 60 through it--must judge it
for themselves.
