PURSUIT OF IN ISSUE UNDER DIFFICUL.

When we first embarked ID the present Cuban
crusade, it was found that we had no money to buy
the Island with. "Ob, we can run in debt" says
the sage Buchanan.
Another difficulty: We have no quarrel with
Spain. "1t 10 easy to pick one" suggests the %.
tute Slide.
But tho Neutrality Laws arc in the way. "Re.
PEAL 'em. Tear 'em out Of the Statute Book," fes
plies the belligerent Davis.
Possibly England and Francs INDY interfere 10

Other legislation must stop. the Tariff be de-
feated and the Post oce isi pshhiiess, it the Gu,

says the sententious Clay.
The session closes and the bill is strahgled ia
its senatorial cradle. "Now we must have an Ex.

Cabinet.
Finally the acquisition will involve renewed
"Slavery Agitation" about it's admissioh into the

A SLAVE CATCHER's CARD.

One W. r. Henry writes to Galveston paper
in justification of himself and his associates
against the recent proclamation oiGenGral Twiggs.

military posts. Mr.. Henry avows that there is n
expedition on foot, intended TO capture runaway
slaves of Texas who have taken shelter in Mexico,
and that he is the head of that agreeable enter
prise. lie says that respectable citizens of Texas
have joined him, and appeals to the public to know
''if it has come to this, that to be governed
by the United States bayone:s 2" Mr.. Henry abu-
ses General Twiggs in round itrms, and even
grows violent, after the following fashion:
Then let us say to the negroes Of Texas, run

lection Of the Uaited States Army. But l know
that 7eras pU not thus submit. The Constitution

Mr.. Henry sets forth the objects Of his "exre'

S9- srElvrR ROCHESTER susK.-we

BGS STEAMER ROCHESTER, SUSK.=We
have already announced byatelegraph the
sinking of this steamer, which occurred at
Eagle Hollow, near Madison. AS she was
about sinking, Mr.. John Mcdonald, one
of her pilots seized q line and jumped
ashore, and fastened it, and thus saved
the boat from sliding into deep water.
The stern of the boat gradually settled
until the whole Of the ladies' cabin was
under water. The passengers, about sixty
in number, were very much alarmed, but
the prompt action of Capt Robinson, as
sisted by tue other officers, soon quoted
their fears, and all were landed safely
without accident. The Rochester's cargo
consisted principally of flour, of which
she had $500 barrels, and green hides
She also had lot of groceries. The boat
lies in very bad condition, her bow held
fast to the shore while the stern is under
water. She is in danger of breaking in
pieces. Nothing can possibly be done
with either boat or freight until the river
commencesi falling again, which, from
present appearances, will not be for some
time. The Rochester was built in Pitts
burgh by Capt, David Gilmore, and was
owned by Capt. Benz. Robinson, her COM
mander, and Capt. George W. Nearc, now
on the J. S. Pringlc, and was worth about
eight thousand dollars. s5a
At the time of attempting the landing
the shore was enshrouded in dense fog,
so heavy that it was impossible for the
pilot to see the jack staff. Shortly after
sinking her chimneys fell over, and in the
fall broke in portion of the hurricane
roof. We understand that she is fully in
surcd in Pittsburgh, but in what offices we
are not able to state.
