La France Advises Spain to
Yield Cuba.

PARIS, Aug. 23.-La France says ::
-" However painful it may be for Spain to
accept the suggested solution OF the Cuban
difficulty, there is no other plan possible.
1t is the only way for Spain to save some
fragments of the wreck. The value and du-
ration of Cuban independence under the
protection of America is another question.
The desire to absorb, which characte:izes
the Americans, qualities them very boldly
to perform the part of p~latonic protectorate.
It is very probable that they were trying
to bring about the second edition Of the
history of Texas.

UTnlzrsa OLp LEATHRR.- old shoes
may be utilized by cutting them into
small pieces, and soaking for few days
in chloride of sulphur, which renders
the leather very hard and brittle. The
,Jleather is then removed, washed with
water, dried, and ground to powder; next
mixed with shellac or other resin, glue,
TO-, and pressed into moulds and formed
ipto combs, knife-handles, and other ar
tioles for which firm horn-like sub
stance is required. It may be question
whether an equally good material can
mot be supplied by other means; but the
practice in question, we are assured, has
actually been in use in Paris for some
lime. - .
