THE EMPRESS EUGENE.

Several of the foreign correspondents of
American journals coincide in the statement
that the Empress of France is particularly
sensitive upon the subject of the supposed
designs of the United States Government up
on Cuba, and that her Castilian pride is tho
roughly reused by the unprecedented impu
dence of that base plebeian, Uncle Samuel
This fair lady says $50 say the letter writers
but how they know it, even if she said so,
passes our Imagination that, if she were
Queen OF Spain she would shed the last drop
of her blood in defence of Cuba We are
very glad that she is not Queen of Spain, and
there are various reasons why she and other
honest women, should not wish to be so. The
difference between queen and quean is in
some cases only the difference of a letter.
But though the Empress Eugene cannot be
the ruler of Spain, she is, what is better. the
ruler of Louis Napoleon, who, "they say" is
the most dutiful husband on the continent,
and that, at the present moment, the slightest
wish of the lady is law to her lord. Even
apart from her influence, that virtuous gen
tleman must be inexpressibly shocked at the
| alleged aggrandizing projects of Uncle Sam,
and the violation of national good faith.

never taken an oath which he did not violate
and which he did not intend to violate at tha

and disappearing lips upon the Holy Eyapee

by picking off some of the travelled Yank ees

she wants Cuba kept out of Uncle Sans
hands, is just to take it into his own. as he
has done Rome and Greece, and consider it
in the light OF a dowry which his wife ought
to have brought to him.
