The English funds were materially affect

were subsequently aggravated by the tele-
graphic summary Of the speech Of the King
of Sardinia on opening the legislative SEES
sion at Turin. The Piedmontese speech was
interpreted "a direct attempt 10 take advan-
tage of the present intlammable state OF Italy
and crafty the ambition of the country at
any cost to Europe; but it is noticed that al
fusion was made 10 the empty state of the
Exchequer. and the belief is thus strength
ened that the capitalistso of London and Paris
will vet hold in great measure the power
to rctard war. The phrase To the effect that
Piedmont is great in the councils of Europe,
because of the principle of liberty she repre-
sents, seemed incomprehensible, since her
greatness is now ayowcdly derived from
the countenance of France and Russia, who
are not likely 10 allow her 10 Oyerrun Italy

The times are getting to be very exciting
in Washington. The Tariff subject, and the
action of the Democratic Senatorial caucus
are now the topics of interest. 1t is mani

that something shall be, nobody can yet de-

TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY l, 1859.

1t is thought and said by some of the dem
ocratic presses, that the great reason why the
Thirty Million Cuban Scheme is 80 pertna-
ciously persisted in, at the present time,
By certain parties, (when all the information
we have from Spain is to the effect that so
far from encouraging such an idea, the bare
proposal of it, is considered by that nation as
an insult and outrage, is merely because the
acquisition of Cuba is believed to be a pop"-
lar measure, and that those who exhibit most
zeal in any effort to accomplish the purpose,
Will receive the most popular favor! May not
those referred to, after all, labor under great
mistake? We have seen no indications among
the people North or South, that would lead
Us to believe, that the acquisition of Cuba, at
this time and under the circumstances which
surround us, would be so peculiarly desira-
Bile. The truth is, the more the Manifest
Destiny" doctrine, is examined in the South,
the more cause do the conservative portion of
the people Of that section-a large majority
see cause to apprehend from it difficulty and
danger. Besides, this constant proclivity to
covet the lands of our neighbors, and after
coveting to get possession of them, when sub
iectcd to the test Of common sense and jus
tice, cannot DO very acceptable to fair minds
and the people of the South are, after all,
u fair-minded people. Cant phrazes cannot
conceal the real views Of the case, nor cover up
the false political morality, which would sub
stitute might for right A witty and satirical
poet, said some years ago.

Now, it is very well to hold out the idea
that we only want to 'buy"-and Ito expand
by purchase, and all that-but every body
knows what all this leads to--and that what
ever the commencement of the negotiations
in regard to Cuba, or any other desired posses
sion may be, there are likely to follow from
it q hundred incidents which might change
the negotiation into qusrrel-and quarrel
once begun, some Of our brilliant acquision-
lists do not scruple already to say, we can
seize and hold and seizing and holding, the
very next thing to do is to "take 'em up by
the slack O. their trowsis, and walk 'em Span
ish clean out O. their homes and houses."-
And this. we say, is not, according to the set
tied opinions of the Southern people, either
in st or commendable.
