"There's no such thing as death"
TO those who think Alright,
IT'S but the racer casting of
What most ,mpedes his flight;
IT'S but one little act,
LIES drama must contain;
One struggle kecner than the rest,
. And then an end Of pain. Ell
"There's no such thing as death"--
That which Is thus miscalled.
IL the life escaping from the chains
That have so long enthralled;
IT'S once hidden star,
Piercing the clouds Of night,
To shine In gentle radiance forth,
Amidst its kindred light.
Z" There's no such thing as DEATH
In nature nothing dies;
From each sad remnant Of decay
Some forms of life arise.
The faded leaf that falls
All sore and brown to earth,
Ere long will mingle with the shapss
That give the flowers birth.
"There's no such thing as DEATH"
IT'S but the blossom-spray,
Sinking before the coming fruit
That seeks the summer ray;
IT'S but the bud displaced,
As comes the perfect flower;
IT'S faith exchanged for sight,
And WEAKNESS for power.

MOtIey,s Instructions.

1t has been reliably ascertaned that the instructions
OF TINS Government to Minister Motley do not sup-
gest any mode of adjusting the pending questions b..
tween the Uuited States and Great Britain. nor do
they require him at present to propose the REQ.
penng OF negotiations for the settlement of the Ala
ALBANIA and other claims. Our Government will act
with the elaboration due to this important subject
and carefully avoid any cause of ofense, while firmly
presenting the American side Of the question to her
Majesty's Government when occasion shall require.
No one connected with the Admnstra ton including
the President, does the British Minister, appre-
bend injurious consequences from the almos. unani-
nous rejection of the Alabama claims treaty bv the
Senate and this is stated the authority of gentle
men who, fearful of serious difficulties made special
and private inquiry in official circles and thus salts
fed themselves Of the truth of this statement

A correspondent Of the Gazette writes
from Lewisvil;e:
George D. Prentice is nominaily en-
ploycd on the Courier Journal at $40

noting. | believe, is expected of him.
Thirty years ago alter n. lIaldemau,
then a boy. entered the office oil Tie

at the head ct the Journal, and was 8
power in Louisville as in the natio i.
Now this once great influential and re-
ally brilliant man is al employee Of Mr.

being mere wreck Il is SAD TO LOOK
upon George d. Prentice Let young
men take warning O.tsi IL the paths
Of temperance and virtue there is no
safety, while the vices lead surely TO de-

WASHINGTON, May SIS p. M.

The President to day informed a lead
ing member of the House Committee on
Foreign Relations that in every case
where our Government had request ed
the Cuban authorities to release persons
unjustly arrested, our requests had in
variably been promptly acceded to, and
he could see no good reason for inter
ference in the affairs Of that island at
present. He said the Spanish authori
ties had assured our Government of their
ability to suppress the Cuban insurrec-
tich in short time, and it was best to
wait before recognizing the insurgents.
A delegation of colored Methodist

The speech Of Senator Sumner on the Alabama
claims has been received by mail in England, and to
say that it produced sensation is to say only half
the truth. All the journals, Liberal and Tory
in declaring q settlement the basis proposed by
Senator Sumner 'extravagant,' unreasonable,
what can hardly be described in serious language,
terms which but excite Indignation Ridiculous hu-
initiation without modern parallel The Times
msrepresents Senator Sumner, saying that settle.
ment the basis proposed by him would involve the
payment ofathe expenses of the war. the pay
ment the national debt and the refunding
to the United States of much Of the principal and
interest it has already paid The Times adds tina.
even this might not be satisfactory, and future de-
mands might be made to embrace the possible earn
ings of all the soldiers drawn by the from pro-

this is not NJ. Sumner has made no such de.
mand. Mr.. Sumner estimated the damages, person.

Butler on the Alabama Business

Mr. Butler, of the House, is preparing
TO correct what he considers an error in
MI. Summers Alabama speech, to Wit
the denial to England Of the benefit of 8
doctrine which we have ever avowed
and acted upon, to- wit: the right of ma
tons to sympathize, as ours has done,
with revolutionary efforts. Butler thinks
Summer theory would embarrass us in
any future aid we may desire to extend
to reYolutionists. He, however, concurs
with Sumner as to atonement and the
measure and amount of damages. We
do not think that the United States ever
so precipitately extended aid to an in
surrection as England did to the Amer
lean rebellion in 1861, to-wit: within
month after the first -un was fired, and
one day before the arrival of our minis
ter.
Batter thinks we need be in no hurry
about settlement, since when England
gets into a war we can easily find means
to sweep her commerce from the ocean!
mot without virtually allying ourselves
with her enemy. Better have the settle.
mcnt made now while it can be done in
an open and fearless manner. This ma
ton cannot afford to sneak into any
quarrel England may have for the sake
Of injuries long past.
We have made all we have and are
out Of England when she had her
hands full with other powers. We can
now afford to give her fair chance ia
any future difficulties with u.s.

How often do We hear the complaint
from mother and father til at their son or
daughter is not well; that they have no
appetite; that they are languid, that their
head aches; that they are growing thin
and feeble, and that they have no life
OF energy left. That they are low-spir-
tied, and perfectly incapacitated to par
ticipate in any pleasures, or perform any
mental or physical duty. And the ques-
ton is often asked, what shall 1 do for
them? or, what shall l give them? Our
answer IS, let them try Plantation Bit
ters moderately three times a day, and
our word for it they will recover.
