enjoying the pleasure of each others society at WASH

We have had quite an effngence of newspaper

Of his Majesty. How the ladies of Mr.. Buchanan's
household here could tolerate this man. Bennett
passes my comprehension. There is no public char.
acter whom he has SO steadily. persistently, and
cruelty maligned as Mr.. Buchanan. Every man
known to be Mr.. Buchanan's friend has been assaled
and prosecuted and prescribed. He has held up the
name Of Buchanan to contempt and scorn laughed
at him through twenty five years newspaper expe.
Of calnmny and ridicule and not content with this,

AN HONEST CoNFEssIoN.-The London Times,
after review of the actual condition of the British
West India Islands and contrast of their former
prosperous condition with their present state Of
decline, closes with the following emphatic paragraph
against the policy of black emancipation
We wish to heaven that some people in England
neither government, people, nor parsons, nor clergy
men-but some justminded, honest-hearted and clear
sighted men would go out to of the Islands-say
Jamaica, Dominica or Antigua, not for month, or
three months, but for year-would watch the
precious protege of English philanthropy, the freed
negro in his daily habits ; would watch him as he
azily plants his little squattng would see him as
he proudly rejects agricultural domestic SERVICE
accepts it at wages udicrousy disproportionate to
the value of his work. We wish, too, they would
watch him while with hide thicker than that OF
hppopotamus, and body TO which fervid heat is
comfort rather than an annoyance, he dronngly
lounges over the prescribed task, on which the in
trepid Engishman, unaccustomed and unnured to
the burning sun, consumes his impatient energy and
too often sacrifices his life. We wish they would go
out and view the negro in all the bazonry of his ad
dress, his pride, his ingratitude, contemptuously
sneeripg at the industry Of that which made him
free, and then come and teach the memorable lesson
of their experience to the fanatics who have per.
verted him into what he is.

THE KNOWING ONES SoLD.-Matthew Hale Smith,
correspondent Of the Boston Journal relates the fol.
lowing New York incident:
A little incident took place Ia New York short
time since that will put in this place. We have q
noted gentleman in New York, whom will call T.
posite to him was another person, who one evening
sported an elegant ring. 1t dazzled 7. He wanted
IT, but the owner seemed to care little to part with it,
Yielding at last to the importantly Of IT, the ring was
titterings and suppressed mrth Of the crowd, which
did not escape the quick ear of 7. He knew that
both the ring and the purchaser was sold. T. said
nothing. The next day he called upon jeweler, and
learned that the ring was PASTE and was worth about
s25 He called for some real diamonds, and among
them found one not unlike his paste. T. made bar
gain with the jeweler for the use Of the real da-
mond. He pledged $1,000, the price Of the diamond.
He gave 800 for its use for time. He had the
paste removed from the settings, and the real da-
mond put in its stead. Thus armed, he appeared
among his associates at night ourished his ring and
seemed to be In high gee, to the establishment Of his
chams, who believed he had been sold.
But the advantage was with T. He talked about
fool and his money" etc.-said that if any gentle
man present had $1,000 ring that he wished to sell
for 5000, II knew where purchaser could be found.
Bets were freely proposed that the diamond was not
real. They were accepted. One man bet $1,000 ; so
did another; and two bet $500 each and ali were
taken by 7, Umpires were chosen, the money and
the ring put into their hands, the test applied and all
said the stone was diamond of the first water and
was worth not less than $1,000. T. quietly put the
$4,000 in his pocket and went his way. He carried
the diamond back, recalled his $1,000, paid for the
of the stone, and, with the paste ring on his hand
went back to the Club at night. The man who had
sold the ring at the Club, waiting for he wanted
to regain the ring. He had sold it for fun. He knew
all the time it was real diamond. He never had
any false jewels. He could tell real diamond at any
time by its peculiar light He would not do so mean
a thing as to cheat his old, dear friend 7. And he
knew that 7. would let him have the ring back But
I. was stubborn; said that the seller was cheat,
and now that he the value of the ring would mt
undo what he had done. At length, I. agreed to re-
store the ring on the payment of $500, which was
joyfully paid But the matter out, and all par.
ties came to the conclusion that when e diamond is
sharp than r. will be Selected for the OPERATION on. less

Palmo2 When Louis Napoleon was in this country,
he lodged at Washington Hall with his suite Pamo

Louis Napoleon left him, and when he went away
made Pamo superb present and in those days il
Louis Napoleon had wanted to "come the borrow
over Pamo the Italian could have spared him $50 900
francs without Inconvenience. What pity Palmo
had not invested $4,000 in that way. Even now,
think Palmo would do better il he would abandon
"cookdom" and go to Paris Napoleon would remen,.

THAT OPPOSITION TIcKEr.-By reference to an.
other column the proceedings Of the Opposition Con-
vention held in New Orleans on Monday last will be
found. In our next issue we will say what we have
to say upon this important matter. In the mean
time We suggest to all DESTROYS Of joining in this
movement to prepare for hearty cooperation when
the ticket is fairly before the people, Many have
been lulled into apathy by the tardness displayed in
bringing it out, and even now are inclined to doubt
its success or even formidable position. To all
SUCH we say be Of good cheer. The ticket assuredy
would not have been brought out were there no
chances of success. This has been fully and fairly
tested long since, and the delay must be attributed
to the time required for perfecting all necessary ar
rangements. Our adversares do not understand,
and far have been with all their tact and ngen-
uty, unable to discover plans and workings. We
tell them this, with all good feeling imaginable and
trust they will not be annoyed at their own lack of
shrewdness. OF course no one kne,o anything about
