THE THIRTY MILLIoys.-The open avowal in
the late democratic caucus Of determination
to steal Cuba, and the news from Spain that
the Cortes is unanimously against any propo-
sition to sell that island, demonstrate thai this
government has no intention to buy, and the
Spanish government no intention to sell, Cuba.
What, then, can the thirty millions be for,
which Senator Slideil proposes to put into the
hands of the President? The Washington
Sfakes, democratic paper. says :-"Oppor-
tunely for an intelligent judgment on the
$50 1000, 900 proposition, We have authentic
information that the Spanish government Will
repel our advances for the purchase OF Cuba
with seorn and indignation. The ministry
have declared an inexorable resolution to this
effect, and they sustained by the unani-
nous vote of the popular representatives.
After this demonstration, will any man persist
in the attempt to acquire Cuba by the means
proposed in the Senatorial caucus? If in the
face OF an indignant remonstrance from the
Spanish nation, Congress shall determine TO
deposit the $50, 100000 with the Executive,
Republican journals may well assert that the
money is intended for some other object than
the purchase of Cuba.''
The object TO our min6 is plain. 1t is TO
furnish vast corruption fund with which to
carry the next Presidential election. 1t can
be no honest object; of that the public can
rest well assured.

A GOOD oLDA ANEcporE.

One day when Dumont, tradesman Of tho
Rue st. Denis was walking in the Boulevard
ST. Antoine with friend, he offered to lay
a wager with the latter that if he were TO hide
a six-liyre piece in the dust his dog would
discover and bring it 10 him. The wager was
accepted, and the piece ot money secrefed,
after being carefully marked. When the two
had proceeded some distance from the spot
NJ. Dumont called 10 his dog that he bad lost
something ,and ordered him 10 seek it. Csniche
Immediately turned back. snd his master aud
his com pauion pursued their walk 10 the Rue
St. Denis. Meanwhile traveller, who hap
pened TO be just then returning in small
chaise from Fincennes, perceived the piece
of money, which his horse had kicked from
its hiding place be alighted, took 1t up, and
drove to his inn, in the Rue Pont-aux- Chous.
CaDiche had just reached the spot in search
of the lost piece when the stranger picked il
up. He followed the chRise went into the inn,
and stuck close TO the traveller Having
scented out the coin which he had been order
ed TO bring back in the pocket of the latter,
he leaped up incessantly at and about him.
The traveller, suppossing him to be some dog
that had beer lost or LETT behind by his mas
ter regarded his different movements as marks
of fondness, and as the animal was handsome,
he determined to keep him. lie gave h,a
good supper, and on retiring TO bed, took him
with him TO his chamber. No sooner had be
pulled of his breeches than they were seized
wanted TO play with them, took them away
again. The animal began 10 bark at the door.
which the traveller opened, under the idea
that the dog wanted to go out. Csniche
snatched mp the breecees, and away he few.
The traveller posted after him, with his night
cap on, and literally ealottes. Anxiety
for the fate of purse full of gold Nspoleons,
of forty francs each, which was In one Of the
pockets, gave redoubled velocity to his steps.
Caniche ran full speed to his masters house,
where the stranger arrived memens after
wards breathless and enrsged. He accused
the dog of robbing him. Sir said tie
master, smy dog is very faithful creature;
and if he has run away with your brceches il
is because you have in them money which
does not belong TO you." The traveller be-
came still more eXasperated. Compose your-
self, sir: rejoined the other, smiling sswith
out doubt there is in your purse si1-lvre
piece, with such marks, which you have pick
ed in the Boulevard ST. Antoine, and which
| threw down there with the firm conviction
that my dog would bring it back again. This
! is the cause OF the robbery which he has con-
mitted upon you. The strangers rage now
| yielded to astonishment; he delivered the
siX-livre piece to the owner, and could no:
forbear caressing the dog which had given
him much uneasinesss and such en- un-
pleasant chase.

BUCHANAN ON WHIsKEY.-Some time ago, a
firm of distlllers in Pittsburg sent the Presi-
dent OF the United States Il small cask of their
best :'rye,' and in the grateiuness of his
heart, the President returned thanks, saying,
among other things, ''Your rye whiskey ex-
GELS in mildness and fine flavor any spirits
ever drank This solid compliment was pre-
cisely what the aforesaid distillers were fishing
for, and they forthwith headed their liquor ad-
vertisementS in the public journals with the
certificate of the President of the United
States The result is, that the 81. B. Brand, -
as it is called. has become wonderfully popu-
lar, and the cunning dstillers are rapidly fill
ing their pockets! The President seems to
be good judge of the article-for, mark, he
says it excels any he ever drank-and if he
don't put stop to the aforesaid dstiller pub
fishing his certificate, temperance people will
begin to suspect that his platform has whis-
key plank in it. BY the by, we wonder how
this wbiskey will compare with Enoch South's,
which Bill Montgomery sent him, or had in
tended to send to him

thick branches of large, glossy, deep green
leaves-is beautiful object; and when the
clusters of large, snow-white flowers appear
pIentifully on the surface of the dark, velVety
foliage, like silvery foam on the swelling ocean
wave, the magnolia has attained its perfection
of beauty, subject for the painters fancy, and
