LATER FROM MISUNDERSTANDING RsIATIoxs WITH
SPAD.-A friend who has just arrived from Ma
tanzas visited the Courier office yesterday and has
given us the following highly gratifying intelligence
of relations with Cuba and the respect and IA
vor with which the Confederate flag is looked upon
by the people.
he says that, his arrival, the slOOp NOsnk Just
from Charleston, hOisted the Confederate flag. The
people were much pleased with her appearance,
and extended cordial greeting to both officers and
crew.
The American Consul, Mr.. Martin, used his best
efforts to prevent the entry of the vessel at the
Custom House. He also wanted the vessel 10 haul
down the Confederate e and substt 1te inits place
the United States flag
The Captain General Of Cuba has issued circu-
lar to the commandants at the different ports to the
effect that all vessels from the Confederate States
shall be allowed to enter and clear at the Custom
House, as American vessels, without regard to Jag
All such vessels at any of the ports to be con
sidered as under the protection Of the Spanish flag
not to be annoyed or disturbed by any of the for
eign Cnnsuls.
Our friend says there was but one American yes
sci at MatanZas. Oar informant also states that
there are also very few American vessels at Havana
and those found it impossible to obtain freight-the
merchants Of Havana refusing to make contracts
with them for fear Of the cargo being taken by
priVateers.-Ch Charleston Courier, Sept. H.

CoERo1NG HENs-A lady correspondent oi the Mobile Advertiser, writing from Kansas, re. lates the following extraordinary proceedings:
 After breakfast, I was surprised to see my landlady go out. and catching her hens, tie each ones legs tog ether, and throw them upon the ground, with there, be good
 What did you do that for ? asked.
 To make them lay
 To make 'em lay! will that do 1t ? snquir- ed.
 La, yes,' she said, didn't you ever hearn tell of that before ?
 I confessed that I had not nan hour she went out again, and picking up the hens sure G. nough, some had laid, those she let go, and thsy ran off, not even cackling their gratitude. But those hens which seemed disposed to be contra. ry, she struck on the back, saying-' You'd bet ter lay-you'd better lay, for you won't go until you do,' and in little time they, too, had re, coinpensed their mistress for feeding them SO beautifully. She says she does so every morn. ing, and the hens know well enough that they lave got to lay.

For great many years, MT. Twist bore tho title of deacon. Clergy aud laity recognized it, and every body called him deacon. Good morn- ing, Deacon Twist" was a common salutation, and it seemed fitting that he should be deacon, because he was such good quiet, benevolent man. Your neighbor, Deacon Twist seems to be great fayorite, one said who had newly moved into the neighborhood, to an old seatler, what church is he deacon of?' Not of any church, was the reply. We'll what gives him his title, then ? the stranger-continued. Why, said the one questioned, when they were plas, tering the new church down here, he and anoth- CT man set up one cold night to watch the fire, so that their work should not freeze, and to keep awake, they played old sledge in the organ loft, and he's been called deacon to this day.

A VERDICT OF A JURY OF BeYs-When Dr. Nathaniel Prentice taught public school at Roxbury, he was much favarite, but his. pa- tience at times would get nearly exhausted by the attractions of his scholars On one occa- sion, in rather wrathy way he threatened to punish with six blows of heavy ferule, the first boy detected in whispering, and appointed some as detectors. Shortly after one of the detectors shouted: ee1gTs4 s4sHf f 2i F@.ss1 sa5 s't
 Master, John Zeigler is whispering"
 John was called up, and asked if it was fact.
 John by the way was favorits, both of his teacher and schoofnates.
 Yes, sir" answered John I was not aware of what | was about, was intent on working out sum, and requested the one who sat next to me to reach me the arithmetic that contained the rule which wished to see."
 The doctor regretted his hasty threat, but told John that he could not suffer him to whisper and escape the punishment, and continued;
 "I wish could avoid it, but cannot without ia forfeiture of my word. and the consequent loss of my authority. .I will, !. he continued, leave it to any three scholars you may choose, to say whether or not omit the punishment
 John said he. would agree to that, and imme- diately called ont c. G., T. D. and D. HID. The doctor told them to return verdict, which they soon did (after consultation) as follows:ao. "The masters word must be kept inviolate- John must receive the threatened six blows of the ferule but 1t must be inflicted on volHnta- " proxies and we the arbitrators, will share the, ,bloHs-pg John, who had listened to the yer dict, stepped up to the doctor, and with out stretched hand, exclaimed:
 sMaster, here is my hand; they shant be struck . blow; Twill receive the punishment" The doctor, Hnder the pretence of Wiping his face, shielded his eyes, and telling the boys to go to their seats, said he would think of it. be- fEeve he did think of it to his dying day, but the punishment was never inflicted: .aasA

 ? The following is well calculated to make the rising generation proud of the noble spirits who shed so much lnstre on their country's name dur ing the memorable war of lSk2, with the then proud mistress of the seas. .@fs' isss -Fz5 .'
 The most brilliant naval action of the last war was undoubtedly that of the old American frigate Consultation (44), commanded by Commodore Stewart, when she captured the two British cor vetts Cyanne and Leyant, of greatly superior force, each of them being equal to the cid fash toned thirty three gun frigates. The handling of the American frigate was scientific.
 By no man9uvsring could either of the Brit. ish vessels obtain position to rake the Consti. tution, shift their ground as they would. Old 1. ronsides was between, blazing away upon both vessels at the same time. During the whele ae- tion, Stewart. instead of mounting the horse block, sat in more exposed position astride the hammock nettings, the better te observe the ma n9uverngs of his antagonists. The Cyanne was first to strike to Brother Jonathan-not an unu- sual thing with British vessels during that war. The frst lieutenant came in haste to the com mander to announce the fact ,. ..s,sst 5sss....F ! The starboard ship has struck, sir" said the {, T know it, sir," said the commodore.

 Harper & Brothers this morning, was not
 little surprised at fact that transpired dHring my chat with one of the firm. The foreman of
 of their bindery, MF. Rosenqusst, who has for
 some thirty years filled that position, came in
 with a bar of gold valued at $3O7 A, aecompa-
 nied with the assayer's certificate TEisamount
 was the product of gold dust swept up from the
 a9or and wiped of 9n the rags by binders dur
 ing three Honths. Twas so much surprised at this bit of economy that asked what the value of their picked up things amountad to in the course of year, and was told that the gold sweepings were worth about $500, shayingss fFam paper $5,O0O; from pasteboard, $7Ol, and scraps from leather $150 making an aggregate
