PRosPEcTs OF UPPER-PENpoM IN WAsHISGroN
Cry THIS WINTER-We take the following
from the N. Y. Herald, of Tuesday. pa
From all accounts it appears that the APP
proaching Washington season will not be so
gay as the votaries of fashion have anticipated
Several members of the diplomatic corps will
not keep up their establishments, and the wives
of some of the Senators do not intend to come
to the capital Mt all. The prospects for the
short session arc therefore little hard and dry
There is good deal of work to do, and some Of
itswill be done. Altogether, then, there will be
more work and less play during the present
Washington season. The sporting world Of the
capital has likewise been obscured in grief byf
the death of the Crockford of Pennsylvania
avenue, the lamented Pendleton, who belonged
to one of the first families of Old Virginia, and
owned Mt various periods large number of
Senators and Representatives, with snch-lieht
trash as clerks, lobby agents, &C., in great GUAM
titles. The demise of this ornament of the.
avenue ehas-s the metropolitan gamblers in a
state of commotion, and several enterprising
faro gentlemen have kept the expresses busy
during the last fortnight sending off their fine
furniture, pate, &C., TO commence business in.
Washington. 1t is Of no use this year Times
will be hard and the Senator'S poor
The comparative dulness of social life In.
Washington will react upon the metropolis, and
make our New York winter one grand carnival
of pleasure, folly, fashion and frivolity Of all
sorts Along with this dissipation and gaiety
we shall have the serious side of the mask ina
heavy murder calendar, nyriads of assaults,
garrotlngs and robbereS, and deyiltry ofall sorts
.tording excellent themes for articles in the
ountryi papers and for sermons for metropolis

CUBA AND CATHoLTcIsM.-The Washington
Republic has made the projected annexation of
Cuba basis for discussing the effect that would
result to our institutions from such large nddi-
ton to the Catholic influence of this country, in
the shape of population educated to consider
church and state as identified. From the sta
tistical facts which it adduces, and the historic
teachings TO which it has reference, the Repub-
lic draws no very favorable conclusions. With
out passing upon the accuracy of its position,
we may quote a few paragraphs. 1t says:
The Cubans are aliens to us in race, religion,
language and laws. Their European origin was
in the Latin stock; ours in the Teutonic. There
is no similarity of ideas between US and them,
and never can be. Nor is there any foundation
for the vague hope that VIC can suPplant them,
so as to make Cuba in truth an American island.
When we acquired Louisiana, more than half
century ago, the present State ofthat name only
had forty one thousand white persons in it, and
yet how largely French, Louisiana is to this day.
Cuba is no larger than. louisiana, but has now
white population of nearly six hundred thou
sand. Within no period not indefinitely re-
mote. will it be any thing else than the Spanish
and Roman Catholic island it is now. What is
to become of our homogenity as nation, if we
admit into it such large element of incongruity
as this! The Roman Catholic influence in this
country is already large enough; and people
jealous Of their liberties will hesitate long before
they assent to such an enlargement of it as
would result from the incorporation of Cuba
into our body polite. 1t is idle to talk about
religious federation. No principle of federation
requires to annex Cuba If the Cubans choose
to be Roman Catholics, lie, them be SO, but the
American people have the same right to choose
not to be ruled by Roman Catholics, as, to a
large extent, we should if this measure Of an
are obsequious enough now to Catholic Bishops
and Archbishops. How obsequious might they
not become, if the number of votes controlled
by those Bishops and Archbishops was doubled
at one blow? The force Oft this objection to the
religion of the Cubans, will diminish with that
progress Of time which diminishes their relative
number, as compared with the number of tho
people of the United States; but at present, and
for long period to come, it is an objection
equally formidable and incontroyertible.

UNRELIABLE INTRLLIGENcE.-Th news by tho
Canada the other day contained the following
"The London Adrertiser gives currency. to
rumor that Lord Derby contemplates retiring.
aud that Lord John Russell is to succeed him
as Premier, with Lord Stanley and Sir James
Graham as prominent members of the Cabinet.
1t IS further stated that this new combination

The Philadelphia Press says
This precious cGnard is one of the weak in

went to the side of the vessel, resolved to cling to it as long as possible. What n contrast between our band and those whc knew not the preciousness of having Jesus as their best friend? We were sustained
 in that hour by our Saviour's presence We were all composed-not fearing deat' though it met us in fearful shape. We thought not of the merciless ocean be- meath, but of God and Heaven overhead The -calmness that reigned in our little circle is another instance of tue reality ol the Christians hope, and the certainty that it will not fail when needed. There was nosuch tranquil scene as this among those who had placed their trust outrlde of Christ and his righteousness.
 During those twenty minutes that re- mained on the vessel, were crowded pie lures of misery that can fill life time s contemplative hours but above them tow ering in sublime grandeur, the Christian hcroism of a few dying souls. The fear ful tragedy could not daunt or smother that.

THE POOR MAN TO HIS SON.
BY ELIZA COOK.

BY ELIZA COOK. Work, work, my boy be not afraid,
 Look labor boldly in the face; Take up the hammer or the spade,
 And blush not for your humble place. Hold up your brow to honest pride,
 Tho rough and swarty your hands may be Such hands are sap-veins that provide
 The life-blood of the Nations tree. There's honor in the toiling rart,
 That finds us in the furrowed fields; It stamps crest upon the heart
 Worth more than all your quart'ed shields Work, work, my boy, and murmur not, The fastian garb betrays no shame; The giime of forge-root leaves no blot,
 And labor gilds the meanest name. And man is never half so blest
 As when the busy day is spent, So as to make his evening rest
 A holiday of glad content. God grant these but a due reward, A guerdon portion fair and just, And then ne'er think thy station hard,
 But work; my boy, work, hope and trust
