Marshal Serrano, though a fair-minded
Spaniard, INDUCED the error of his race when
he proposed to treat the Cuban subject as poor
Spain has treated so many others-by post
ponement. 1t was not his fault that the Gu
bans rebelled. lie had, in one of the frankest
representations ever made TO Queen Isabella,
pleaded for such opportune reforms as would
have saved her province. But he had, no more
than the rest of Spain. the power or the genius
10 perceive that the Cuban trouble demanded
an instant application of the most revolution
ary reforms All that Spain won by her rebel
lion Cuba should have won at the same time
Emancipation and autonomy were alike needed
by both in the settlement Of the provincial is
sue. Time proves that they could not with
safety be deferred a day, and the mother
country finds TO her cost that, whether she
will OF not, these principles in the
most radical shape are about to be won for
good by her rebels To have made something
less than q Canada of Cuba, and to have de-
creed a speedy emancipation, would have been
possible but for the inherited blindness and
weakness of Spanish administration. Marshal
Serrano may have said measuraby the truth
to the Cortes when no averrcd that not the
revolt in Spain, but the iniudicious impost on
planters and merchants incomes, directly ex-
cited the Yara and Camaguey outbreaks, but
every one knows that this tax was only drop
in the well of Cuban wrongs. Considering
what Spain is and has been, it may seem
almost unreasonable To expect any decidedly
moral policy from her leaders but it is very
certain that she has had TO pay roundly for the
want of it,

Florence has been of late days vexed with
political intrigue and scandal. Minister Digny
has been selling mOnOpolies, and the monoDo-
lists have been nOtoriOusly buying legislators.
Such facts sort well with the fears of outbreak

The Italians have had spilit enough to bring
some of their cOuuptionists to shame-but late

No information is more desirable to a certain
important class of immigrants than that which
relates to the cheap but highly fertile and

DEATu.-John D. Fraser, of York, Liv-
ingston Co., New York, father of our fel-
low citizen, d. d. Fraser, died on Friday
April 30th, aged 81 years. His disease
was called consumption of the blood"
the result, probably, of dyspepsia. His
confinement to bed was only three days
duration. A letter to us from Daniel, de-
failing the unhappy event, reached us too
late to permit more extended notice.
The mother Of our known
friend, d. d., is very sick and the proba-
bility is the shock occasioned by the death
of her lite-companion, will take her to the

that fate which it is impossible to avoid.

not nook or corner of our land where
they are not found and used. The sale
has reached the enormous number of Five
Millions of Bottles annually, and it is con-
stantly increasing. 1t only shows what

Plantation Bitters. Go where you will,

Chinese Jugglers.

Chinese JugElers.
The Chinese jugslers and their curious
tricks, are often matter of great interest
to the stranger. Unlike the modern
prestidigitator, he has no apparatus, no
tables with drawers, no baskets and boxes
with false bottoms; therefore his tricks
seem all the more wonderful.
One trick | remember that | was never
tired of seeing, it was so curious and the
same time SO beautiful. The juggler is
furnished with square tile Of white pre-
celain, apparently not different from any
other piece Of white ware. lie asks you
what flower be shall make appear on the
surface. Perhaps you say a red rose. lie
waves the brush over the plate few
times, the brush has apparently no color
in it and he has no colors near him, and
in moment the flower appears on the
face of the tile, with its appropriate leaves,
as if painted by the most skillful hand.
When you have admired it sufficiently,
he passes his hand once across the picture,
and it is gone. You ask to see a water
lily next, and with few waves of the
same brush he produces it, without mo-
ment's hesitation, and wipes it away in
the same manner. No matter what flower
you ask for, so long as it is one with which
the juggler is acquainted, he will paint it
for you.
The growth, blossoming and fruit-bear-
of a seed planted before your eyes, in a
little mound of earth ON the pavement be-
meath your window, is another Of the in
explicable tricks of their jugglery, and it
becomes peculiarly difficult to explanation,
when the fruit you see grow and are al
lowed to eat is not in season. and therefore
not to be procured in the market.
