what the English Ta.uk oi our Ac.ui.;-
 ton of Cuba.


 lion. John c. Dodson. est. candidate f,, Parliament for East Sussex (England) recently delivered lecture to the English people of Brighton, on the subject of Cuba embracing the result of his residence in that island.- Among other things he said:
 If Cuba was annexed to the United Statos ;ts WoductlyenesS and its trade would be moro da. VeIoped Tn five or six years under the influence oi Amencan activity, than iu ten times as many years ot Spanish torpor and misruIe, Tn oon- Iltlco-economcal point of view, the world and England especially, would b. gathers. But however much England (and the same aDnIies though m a less degree, to France and othar great powers) might gain in wealth she wonld loSe lar more Tn respect of position and nres- u5e The possession of Cuba would add enor. mousIv to the influence and the strepath of the United States, and would hasten the day winch already seems fast approaching when they will become the first power in the world ct It scarcely, under any circumstances will be worth Engands while to plunge into a War with the American republic, solely to en- deaVor to prevent it from adding Cuba to it's domlhonS. Even if successful in the imme date object of the war; she would iuHjct as great injury on herself as on her rival. Intbe natural course of things, America must be- come sooner or later far greater empire than the mother country. The Americans have all the qualities that have made Us what we are With one hundred an fifty times our national resources and their spirit of enterprise is ac. c"ldmGIy qnick4nei and stimulated. The most desirable event for E gland would be such a peaceable dissolution of the Union as should leave two or more prosperou, and independent powers capable of holiag the balance to eaca other Such dissolution would probable be rather promoted by the ad lition of Cuba to the republic; such a dissolution would prpbabv be regarded by the attempt of any forei ga State to bring 1t about That a separation will some dlv take place, many thinlits Americans be- heve; the time, however, of it, is perhap, more remote than the people in Europe are willing to imagi"e.

 The Seuate of Massachusetts, by a vote of twenty five otwelve, have adopted the follow Ing address to the Governor:
 "Address to his Excellencv, Henry J. Gard
 her. Governor of the Commonwealth Of
 M ass chuSetts.
 The two branches of he Legislature in gen oral court assembled, respectfully request that your exceliency would be pleased, by and with the advice and consent of the council, to re- move Edward Greeley Loring from the office of JuIse of Probate for the county of Sul1)lk for any one, or for all the following reasons. to wit:
 lst. Because he consented to sit as United States slave commissioner, in defiance of the moral sentiment of Massachusetts, as express ed in the legislative resolutions of 1850.
 2I. Because now in detiauce of the provi- sions contained in section 13, of chapter 489 of the acts of 1855, Edward Greeley Loring continues to holI the office of Judge of Probate, under a NJ .sSachuscttS commission, aud at the same time to hold in defiance of law, a commission under the United States which qualities him to issue warrants and grant certificates, under the acts of Congress, named in the 9th section of chapter 409, of the acts of 1855"
 The Boston Post has the following upon the >uHect:
 Aboitiondom in Massachusetts is in extacies at the action of our $ nate in passing the a l. dress for the removal of Ju lge Loring. That lisunion journal, the Worcester Spy, says that the senate came up to the scratch nobly, and glories ill the treason. Nothing will satisfy the ultlas but bold measures--the action that will bring the State authorities into collision with the federal authorities. Judge Loring's only crime is obedience to the supreme law ot the land; sustaining an act of Congress pro- nounced constitutional by the highest trbu- nals of our country. For this cause our aboli- ti"n- Know Nothing Senate voted the address of removal, and fol this cause our abolition journals sustain it. This support of law these rnIIng powers term degradation! How long will the patriotism of Massachusetts allow such proceedings to disgrace her? How long will the intelligence of Massachusetts consent to be represented by snch pitifu treasou?

Colored DaguerreotIpes.

The daguerreotype as at present pro-
duced shows only the effect of light and
shade. 1t has not yet satisfactorily pro-
duced color. Occasionally, indeed, in
the hands of an artist, single color is
produced, and M. Becquerel, by the aid
of a galvanic current traversing the plate
while in the camera, has produced an
occasional color-not the natural one
The road to success in this respect is
in the taking images more rapidly; more.
sensitive plates, and more powerful ac-
celerators must be used. 1t is very
probable that polished surface is not
that which is capable OF receiving the
colors; surface chemically pure, yet
not capable of reflection, VIII be likely
to answer better, hence the newly elec-
trotyped surface should be most effect.
i've. and when this is excite1 by more
sensitive coatipgs than the present, it is
likely that the colors Of nature will be
reflected as they impinge. There is no
doubt that the coating with mercury
covers these up, hence this must ulti-
mately be dispensed with, as also the use
ofchloride of gold. Chloro cromic acid
is powerful accelerator, and may be
useful in the first stages; but the whole
difficulty has not as yet been solved.

BARON MAcAULY.-A London writer

Baron's tenacious memory and happy
turn for quotation. His rebuke to the
female Atheist is singularly felicitous:
"At a breakfast recently given at the

Carlisle and Mr.. Macauly were present
The conversation happened to turn on
the catastrophe which occurred some
months ago in Tottenham-court-road, by
the falling down Of three houses, which
buried the inmates in the ruins. The
lady, who in her youth professed Deism,
but who in her senility has degenerated
into SOFT Of Atheist, took occasion to
talk in a most reprehensible strain with
reference to this particular event, to the
great discomfort, il not disgust, Of the
historian. He endured the infiction for a
while. but at last, turning to Lord Car
isle. with ludicrously piteous express
sion Of countenance, he repeated the
lines:
"Ifere falling houses thunder on your head,
And here female Atheist talks yOu dead
The lines are in Johnson's now almost
forgotten poem of London"

A SwoRDFIsH "PTTCHING INTo' A
SHIP.-The Charleston (S.C) Advertiser
recently, in noticing the arrival of the
brig Dolphin at that port for repairs,
says:
While stripping off her copper on We'd
nesday, about eight inches of the sword
of a sword-fish was found sticking fast in
her bottom. 1t was found in her bows,
wedged in her garboard-streak, pointing
downward. 1t would seem from its
position, that the vessel and fish were ap-
preaching each other rapidly, and in or.
der to avoid the vessel the latter made n
plunge to pass under the vessel, but fail.
ing in so doing, his sword pricked the
copper, and passed down beneath it till
it struck the cardboard streak, and snap.
ded short off, leaving the point fast in
the vessels bottom.
The sword Of sword fish iis of solid
bone, stands firm, straight out from the
npper jaw, its base being the jaw itself.
It's shape is precisely that Of the short
artillery rapier, commonly in use few
years ago, though much stouter in pro-
portion to its length, its fat surface
protrubing horizontally. The fish itself
is of the mackerel shape, though more
round, and weighs from 400 to l 200
pounds, the sword upon each varying
with their size from two feet to 40 inches
in length. 1t is very rapid fish and
possessed of great strength, as its form
indicates. We once saw tho sword Of q

A DISAPPOINTED WEDDING PAkTY.-

A DISAPPOINTED WEDDING PAkTY.-
Mr. Charles White was engaged to be
married to Miss Mary Hall, daughter OF
a most respectable citizen in Columbus,
Ohio. On the evening fixed for the wed
ding, and at the appointed hour, the par
lors Of Mr.. Halls residence were throng-
ed with ladies and gentlemen, beaus and
bellies, assembled to witness the ceremo-
ny, but hour after hour passed and Mr..
White appeared not. A search was in
stituted for him, by parties indignant at
his conduct, and he was 70 und at his own
residence under the administration of no
less than three physicians. 1t appears
that before starting for the wedding he
was troubled with cramp in the stom-
ach; to relieve himself he took lsudanum
which, instead Of relieving him, prostra-
ted him. He is not expected to recover.
