CUBA.

HAVANA, June 25.-The volunteer forces
have, Of their own free will. given up the duty
Of garrisoning Moro Castle and Fortress Ga

and without landing all her stores proceeded
to Turks Island, where she received clearanees
and arrived on the 14th instant at Falmouth,
Jamaica. There, one hundred aud 6fy-hve
packages of arms anu ammunition remaining
ON board were selzsd By the customs officers,
and the captain abandoned the vessel. The

u ~ THE SEASON OF EXHAUS AION.-
No matter how vigorous by nature the system and
the constitution may be, they must necessarily suffer
more or less from the depicting effects Of the tempe.
fstrre OF midsummer, unless strengthened and sus-
tanned by wholesome tonic treatment. The extra
pressure upon the vital forces mu st be met ar d
counterbaIanced by extra resistant power: the IN.
usual and rapid consumption of the anilnal du ds by
profuset perspiradon, must be compe nsated by the
perfect digestion and assimilation of the food taken
INTO the stomach. from which both the Auids and
the solids Of the body are derived. Otherwise the
physical strength eciines and the mind sympathix-

French Manners aud American
MannErs.

One of an American party in Paris
/ whose circle had been invaded by death,
at Partisan hotel, writes
No other experience could have so
warmed my heart to the French people
as did that ten days of SORROW" giving
as reason therefor, that everyone at the
hotel, from the chambermaid to hostess,
were attentive, sympathetic, and ready
to help.
What guest in America could have an
experience that would draw from him
like thanks to the host and servants of
one of our large city hotels?
And the same letter, in speaking of
the funeral procession, composed only
of carriage or two-the deceased and
her companions being total strangers
in Paris-says: As our simple pro-
cession passed through the crowded and
fashionable boulevards, the Broadway of
Paris, every one turned to look upon it,
with not curious but sympathetic eyes
every hat was raised in deferential salu-
ton, from the poorest peasant in his
sOiled blouse to that Of the wealthiest
gentlemen sauntering for pleasure or
fastening to his business"
What a contrast with American man
ners Here We see horses and carriages
dash past funeral professions, and even
break through the procession itself be-
tween the hearse and carriage of mourn
ers, and the person who should halt with
raised hat as procession passed would
be stared at as a curiosity. In this
connection we may repeat an incident
occurring on Broadway, at its most
densely crowded point just below the
AstOr. 1t was a number of years since
the Prince de Joinville, son of Louis
PHILIPPE, then King of France, visited
this country, and made his mysterious
trip up the lakes and had his remark
able interview with the late Rev. EIeazer
Williams at Green Bay. The Prince
came over in the Belle Poule, beauti-
ful miniatu re frigate, and at the time we
refer to, this vessel was lying in New
York. One day there passed along the |
crowded walk, down Broadway past the |
Astor, and st. Paul's Church, a poor
man and womaH, the former carrying
under his arm tiny coffin with their
dead baby, they strangers, and friendless,
seeking Christian burial for their |
child, -
The surge of Broadway rendered it
almost dangerous to attempt to thread |
that crowd in safety to their precious
burden. Just as the two had passed St. !
Paups there came up Broadway the
entire crew of the French frigate, two
by two, in their holiday dress, and
iaunty hats with long stFeamers, chatter
ing jabbering. as French sailors only
car, but the instant the leading man espied
that baby coffin he called a halt, apd |
every man, facing in, lifted his hat and
stood in silence while that humble
couple, with their cheap pine coffin,
covered with the mothers only shawl
for pail, we're passing. There was a
lesson for American gentlemen, but one
our people, with all their pretended re-
'pect for the dead, will never learn.
