RAILROAD DAMAoEs.-Speaking of the fact
that the New Haven Railroad Co., has incur
red loss of 100000 by the Norwalk acci-
dent, the Buffalo Courier remarks us follows:
The principle is now not only established
but well understood, that the Companies are
liable as common carriers, and are wholly at
the mercy of jurors, when exemplary damages
are demanded upon the assumption that the
cause of the death or injury on the road was
within the control of those directing and
operating it. Travellers are of course to be
the gamers by rigid enforcement of penal
ties in the Courts, and it is right that every
possible guarantee of safety should be secur-
ed TO them; but the enforcement of the legal
rights of passengers, and especially, the re-
covery of exemplary damages, is making sad
inroads upon the receipts Nnd absorbing the
profits of large number of our Railroad
Companies. 1t is SAID that the Railroads in
New England, taken as whole, barely pay
expenses of operating them, and no dividends
are again expected of three foutths Of them.
A full statement of their financial condition
would probably reveal the fact that the
greatest drawback upon them has been and
continues to be the cost of accidents.

The PRESIDENTS ORGAN AND THE CUBAN
QUEsTIoS.-Th Washington Union flames
and sputters like Congreve rocket, against
Spain and her alleged designs, under the
guidance of England for the Africanization of
Cuba. II threatens all sorts of horrible things
if the attempt to fastsn the nuisance of negro
emancipation upon Cuba is persevered in, and
fatty declares that the experiment shall never
be carried out. We very much fear, however,
that this blast of war from the administration
trumpet,is is
Like tale told by m idiot,
Full OF sound and fury, signifying nothing.
What we want is less bluster and more ac-
ton in reference to Cuban affairs. We want
firm, dignifed, positive and practical Ameri-
can policy put into practice. The country is
tired of this rant and cant of the Washington
organ. 1t is vulgar, undgnifed, and calcu-
lated to sink the government in public opin-
ion. at home and abroad. The clustering of
the braggadocio does not become the official
paper of such government as ours. 1t is
unworthy the dignity and majesty OF this
great republic. There is no shadow of justi-
fication for such wrath and vengeance on the
part of the organ, while the administration
itself knows not what to do. When the hen
has laid an egg she may cackle.

To PRESERVE Eees-Take one pound of
stone lime and slack it in three gallons of wa
ter. Then add one pound Of salt. Put the
ergs in when the mixture is cold. Look to il
frequently to ascertain if the top is encrusted
with lime. If not, slack little more and add
to it. A pork or wine barrel is best for the
purpose.
II is necessary to be particular that the
shell of the egg should not be cracked. lfit
is, the lime hsrdens the yolk, and renders it
unfit for use.

CuBA.-"Ion," the Washington correspon-

CUBA.-"lon," the Washington correspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun, says:
Great preparations have been made by the
Filibusters for a descent upon Cuba. The
association now commands n fund Of mil
lion of dollars, and they have an able and
experienced American General at their head.
They put their General, the Governor, against
the Governor General, and, with 5000 troops,
armed and equipped, with the aid of the
"mysterious muskets," they are to undertake
to land in Cuba. They do not expect to
conquer the island and keep it without the
aid OF the United States.
Upon the failure of Mr.Slidel's resolutions
blockade will be resorted to. At all events
our lillibusters svill be enabled, without
hindrance, to carry out their own plans, until
Congress can be dragooned into the measure.
Preparations are now making to got in rcadi-
ness naval force to enable the President to
give some efficiency to the blockade, in op-
position to the French and Spanish fleets.-

state of tagrant war with foreign powers in

Dos'r .Go IT TOO STRosG."-The immor-
tai Sam Patch, who jumped from the top of
the Niagara with triumphant success, and
was killed afterwards by attempting similar
feat from the falls Of tie Genessee at Roch-
ester, was fellow, it is said of "in6nite jest"
1t was a standing remark with him, that
"some things could be done as well as 9TH
ers." Poor Sam jumped once too often; that
was his mistake. He paid The forfeit of his
error, and died Sin harnessr---for jumping
was his business.
We might take lesson from Sam. It
won't do to jump too often. five are so
fortunate as to be saved from the downward
poise of the precipice by hairs breadth to-
day, it would not be the highest wisdom to
attempt similar experiment tomorrow.
If man be saved from danger, ruin, or
misfortune by the "skin Of tire teeth" he
should learn lesson that c,yhi to serve
him through the rest Of his life. --,----.
Bold men, who do bold deeds, are often
successful; but when such people fail, the
failure is awful to contemplate. A bolder
man than old Bonaparte, for instance, never
lived. His triumphs were the wonder and
admiration of even his enemies. But wise
as he was, he foolishly enough attempted the
conquest of Russia, fatal mistake, which
was, no doubt, the cause of his ultimate ruin.
The prestige of his fame became dmmed af-
ter that unfortunate campaign, if such, indeed,
it may be called.
We do not intend to write long article
on this subject. Our readers will doubtless
understand what we are driving at We
commend proper and reasonable ambition,
but we suggest that when man has done
well enough-when he has attained all he
can reasonably expect, he grasp not for more
than he can reach. Let us remember poor
Sam Patch.

WALKER.-The Los Angeles Star gives

WALKER.-The Los Angeles Star gives
the following sketch of Walker:
The character which Walker hears among
his men is by no means an exalted one. He
is represented as excessively vain, weak-mind-
ed and ambitious. His vanity makes him
tyrannica; his weakness renders him cruel;
his unbounded and senseless ambition has
led him to believe himself born to command
His great pride was in standing upon his
dignity" his men were constantly harassed
with vexatious orders upon etiquette. There
was not sensible man in the whole COM
mand who did not utterly despise him.
The property destroyed by Walkers esti-
mated at more than million of dollars
And by his licenses and example, the Indians,
who before were peaceful, have become ag-
gressors, and their depredations are cleaning
out what little was left by him. 1t is not
supposed that Walker has appropriated to
his own uses more than $l60,000; but a
vast amount of property has been wasted"

cowhiding case in that city, in which a gen.

a family at the Falls, was aogged in restau-

tisement with "piece of her mind"-charg-
ing him with making disturbance in her
family-promising to marry divers and sundry
young ladies, he being married man all the
while, and she would teach him better than
that. On leaving she gave the victim Of her
vengeance due notice that if she ever caught
him in the street he might expect another
installment of the ''hide," with interest.
