On The Road To White Pine.

a correspondent of the San Francisco
Bulletin relates this incident OF trip
to White Pine, Nevada, as illustrative
of the hOtelso on the route:
AT one station the party halted for
Il square meal. There was q tent and
in it huge kettle of coffee and camp
oven. After waiting a few minutes, the
landlord came to the door and snapped
out, Room for FOUR Our informant
went in with three other meL, and they
knelt around fiat box, which three 9TH
err men, and they turned down on the
ground. On the top were four basins OF
strong coffee, and by each dirty tin was a
dirty biscuit and an egg. The coffee
and eggs were good and the biscuits We're
good on the outside, that is, the eater
had to chose between two evils-dirt
over the top crust, dough under it.
Each loaf was like cam cake, per-
fectly soft inside. The hungry men
scraping and rubbing it to remove the
gustO and torrents of strong coffee.
The inside masses of dough were left
by each mans basin. When the men
had finished their meal and " lille they
were yet kneeling their host put his
dirt-begrimed and greasy hand over the
box and spoke again, -Four dollar He
was paid. Plump went the silver into
his pouchy pocket, and pop went the
four masses of dough back into the oven.
AS soon as a new crust was backed over
them eggs cooked and the basins were
refilled with coffee, four more hungry
men knelt down, ate off the crust, re-
jected the rest of the dough for another
baking and paid their dollar each for
the meal. IL was calculated that one
more stage load of customers would fin
ish the biscuits and put the landlord
to the trouble Ofkneading new batch"

Cuban AHutrS.

The Cuban agents in New York city
are very active nowadays, and are rem
dering the Cubans all the aid in their
power. An expedition left the city a
few days ago, concerning which the
New: York Tribune has the following
interesting particulars: The vessel was
the famous, fast-sailing schooner
Grapeshot, memorable for the part she
took in the capture of Lewis Baker, in
dicted for the killing of VIM. Poole.
She sailed from Hunters Point, where,
for week previous. she had undergone
extensive repairs on the marine rail-
way, foot of Seventh Street, under the
superintendence of Messrs. Boggs e.
Davis. AS her object and destination
were kept perfectly secret, she excited
little or no curiosity among the few fire.
quenters of that neighborhood. The
schooner was heavily laden with boxes
containing arms and munitions of war,
consisting of muskets, rifles fixed am
munition OF all kinds, hOwitzers, har-
ness, &C., besides number of barrels
containing about 100000 rounds of
cartridges. These were placed in the
hold, taxing it to its utmost capacity,
while the deck was loaded with boxes
containing harness and other light arti-
cles, with the necessary water-casks for
the voyage. On the night of her sail
ing, fifty men were taken on board, to-
gether with the necessary provisions,
and the vessel quietly sailed on her
hazardous undertaking under command
of Capt. Kempton, formerly of the
United States Navy. The Grapeshot
has probably reached her destination
ere this. The vessel, 1T is understood,
was fitted out under the auspices of the
Cuban Junta of New York City.
The Mexican Congress have, bya vote
Of 100 to IL, approved the proposition
presented by more than so deputies req
cognizing Cuban belligerency. Advan'
tage will at once be taken of the step,
and letters of marque, it is declared,
will be soon issued. A Washington
correspondent says that, application
having been made to certain officials
connected with the Government, by
agents of the Cuban insurgents, for the
purchase of munitions of war, the
President has given directions to sell
all war material not wanted by the Gov
eminent to any parties who wish to pur-
chase. The agents were accordingly
notified that they could have all they
desired, provided they furnished the
necessary funds.
A Havana correspondent of the New
York Times says that the generally adj
mitted theory that all the Cubans are in
favor of the insurgent cause is fallacious.
Large numbers of them belong to the
volunteers, and although there are UNI
doubtedly great many of them who
have joined from motives entirely for
eign to the object for which the volun-
teers were organizek, there are many of
them SO utterly and strongly devoted to
Spain and its plans, that they are more
true to the Spanish Government and
more opposed to their cOuntrymen than
the native-born Spaniards themselves.
Others-like Juan Paez, the wealthy
planter-are giving their time and
money to the Spanish cause.
