The Ottoman steamer which is conveying
Messengers from Southampton to Port Said, to
pass through the Canal OF Suez, is called the Ba-
bel. in reference probably to the confusion OF
tongues and nationalties which is likely to char

Spain has been reduced to such dilapidated
condition by the impotent efforts of Prim and
Sefranoto subjugste the American Island Of Cuba,
that she is obliged to sell at public auction some
ofsAer public lands, among others the forest OF
Las fsuadaierzas situate twenty miles from the
Mediterranean Railway, in the District OF Ye-

Ssso,oeo. There being no funds in the Spanish
excheduer to defray the expenses Of reinforce

doomed to the humiliation Of calling upon his
sConsul- General at London to beg for assistance
among the Spanish merchants OF that city. These
contributions come in with desperate slowness,
ana as yet barely amount to $1,000.

Once the head is gray,
And the heart Is dead,
There's no more to do
Make the man o bed
six feet under ground;
There he'll slumber sound.
Golden was my hair,
And my heart did bea
To the viol's voice
& Like the dancers feet.
Not colder now his blood
Who died before the flood.
Fair, and fond, and false,
Mother, wife and maid
Never lived q man
They have not betrayed !
None shall 'scape my mirth
But old Mother Earth.
Safely housed with her,
With no company
But mY brother Worm,
Wh9Mill feed on me,
I shall slpmber sound,
Deep down under ground.

SATURDAY MORNING, Aug. 81, 1869
THE PRESIDENT ALL RIGHT.

L1IL ALL p
1t seems to us that great deal of
undersigned censure has been cast upon
the President of the United States,
sometimes broadly, as in the charge
that he has not kept faith with the
people Of Virginia; and at OTTER times
By implication, as, if he shall suffer
Candy to impose the iron clad oath
upon the Legislature of Virginia, he
will forfeit his plighted word; and in
the frequent assertion ofcertain papers
that they have no faith in him; all OF
which go ia show mainly that oppor-
tunity is sought for such opposition as
will render the President unpopular.
We have to say frankly that we
have seen no action of the President in
reference to this oath which warrants
the eensure attempted to be cast Ia :.
him. What has he done about n
Simply, when the question came Up,
referred it to the Attorney General for
his opinion, reservipg the final decis-
ion Of the question until that opinion
has been filed; but he has not indicated
in any mode what his decision will be.
General Candy, we are told, delays all
action until that opinion has been pro-
mulgated; and the case rests in this
position, only disturbed by unquiet ap-
prehensions and lying Geographic dis
patches.
This being the position of affairs the
public mind may as we'll TRANQUILITY
await the denouement. 1t would please
the restless aud perturbed spirit of the
opposition TO see the press of the State
break out into Incorporate and ill
timed abuse of the administration, and
thus cast odium upon the people of Vir-
ginia as insincere in the policy which
governed them in the election; and
hence all these sensations, rumors and
lying dispatches, which; happily, the
people have learned to trust no more.
The truth is that Grants message te
Congress recommending the reconstruc-
ton bill of the "New Movement" was
In good faith; Congress passed it nearly
unanimously; and despite the extreme
views of few radical leaders, there is
no evidence of"going back" on the part
Of the President, Congress, or the Re.
publican party. We are as much con-
WINGED now as we have ever been that
neither the iron clad oath nor any other
obstacle will he placed in the way of the
obstruction of Virginia, when tie
time has fully come.
