A NUMBER of Norwegians, including Ole
Bull and his family, win sail from this
country for Norway this week, to take part
in the celebration of the one-thousandth
anniversary of the nationality of their ma
tive country. One thousand years ago
Harold, the Fair haired, for the love be
bore Gyda, noble lady Or Norway, who
vowed that she would not wed him until
he had subjugs:ed the petty princes, and
united the country in one kingdom, accom-
plished the stipulated conquest, won his
bride, and inaugurated the nation as a
whole. Although Norway is no longer an
Independent kingdom, she finds occasion
to celebrate, and the ceremonies promise to
be imposing.

WE were right in suggesting that Dr..
Livingstone was not anxious to be found,
and had no desire to be brought back to
civilization. The news received from him
yesterday represents him as wholly declin-
ing Mr.. SANKEY'S offer to bring him home,
and informs us that be does not want to
leave Africa. So far the news is ineligible,
and probably authentic. The cable, how
ever, goes on to say that DR.. Livingstone
has discovered that the river "Rusye flows
into Lake TaDgaDyika, and hence that
TsDganyika is not connected with the
Nile" The premise may be correct, though
how the traveller draws his sequence from it
is not clear. We are further told that he is
about to explore an underground communi-
cation between Lakes Unyanyembe and
Nyassa." As there is no lake of the former
name-though The name was formerly ap-
piled to Lake Tanglnyika-and as Living
S zone has already informed us that water
sled separates the Nyassa region from the
more northerlg lakes, this information is
rather darker than this underground pas
SAGE" can be.

IN the course Of a day we may expect To
hear stirring news from Cuba. The fill
buster expedition by the Fannie must be
nearing the coast now, and if this is not
followed by some hard fighting, all present
indications are unmeaning. AS if in anti
cipa.ion Of this new demonstration, the
Revolutionary Club Of Havana has issued
another manifesto to the people, in the
course Of which they declare:
For two months past the star of Cuba
has shone with a newer and more brilliant
Lstr6. The opportune arrival and fortu-
nate discharge Of the steamer Stewart, with
a considerable cargo Of munitions of war
aud about forty Cubans, who have come TO
share with their coUntrymen the dangers of
the war, have given new impulse TO our
military operations in the Eastern Depart
meut, exactly at the time that the Spanish
troops are obliged to take shelter in their
quarters, crushed by the heat of the season
and decimated by the "patriot, that Provi-
Dental scOurge of those peninsulars who
leave their homes to come and fatten on this
fertile soil of liberty.
One more effort and the triumph will be
ours, even more quickly and happily than
we expected when unfavored by special
circumstances. Cub4ns union and au-
dacity. The Patria trusts in you.
TEE REVOLUTIONARY CLUB.
The Havana journals betray no little I'M
easiness as to the doiDgs of Cubans in the
United States. The DiGriO, the recog-
nized government organ, is probably the
most nervous, as on the 9th it devoted an
editorial on the subject, in which it stated
that a number Of notable CubaHs had ar
rived at New Orleans, whose object was to
inspire confidence as to the present success
of the instruction, and raise funds to IN
dertake another expedition similar to that
Of the Stewart.

a lew days Rince, ia the United States
District Court, somewhat novel question
came ap in case before Judge Lowell, in
which citizen Of Rhode Island brings an
action upon promissory note against
firm doing business in Massachusetts. The
note was given in payment for intoxiea-
ting liquors bought by the firm, to be sold
In Massachusetts, in violation of the bro.
hibitory law. Had the action been brought
in the State courts, the law of Massa-
chusetts would have prevented recovery,
as it is expressly provided that no action
shall be maintained for the price of liquor
sold in any other State for the purpose of
being brought into Massachusetts and kept
or sold in violation of law, under circum-
stances giving the vendor reason to believe
That such purpose Is entertained by the pur-
chaser; and notes given for such sales are
declared void in the hands of any holder,
with direet or implied notice of such Illegal
consideration.
The action referred to is resisted on the
ground that the liquor was sold in violation
Of the Massachusetts law, and the United
States Court is called upon to govern itself
by that law in the present case. This re-
striction of the Massachusetts statute
upon the right Of action for liquor debt,
can only be regarded as penalty imposed
upon The vendor, and whether a
court of the United States will
feel itself constrained to enforce
Massachusetts, penalty, is somewhat ques-
tionable. Until Congress adopts the pro-
hibitoTy law of Massachusetts it is not
probable that International courts will under
take to enforce its penalties. We believe it
has been expressly held by the Supreme
Court of this State that the restriction upon
the right to sue is to be regarded as one Of
the penalties of the prohibitory law.
The restriction is not one that commends
itself to the sense of justice or propriety,
whether controlling the action Of a United
States court or not. Liquors are treated by
thelaws Of Massachusetts as property, and
the courts SO regard them; and yet the
prohibitory law virtually says to the
individual, you may get possession
of-the property of your neighbor
under promise to pay him for it, and
you may then repudiate your promise
with impunity, and keep possession Of his
property. The law gives the dealer full
permission TO buy, and imposes its penalty
upon the vendor alone. Hence t operates
as direct encouragement to swindling,
though never designed for that purpose,
and has tendency to lower the standard
of morality, and impair the saDctity ofcon-
tracts.
We very much doubt whether it has any
effect in restraining the traffic in liquors, or
diseouraging the vendor TO pursue his trade.
Ifbe have any fear that his customer, when
called upon to pay, will avail himself of the
disgraceful subterfuge which the law makes
effective, he has only to sell for money down,
and then he viii have no occasion 10 sue. To
this extent the liquor dealer is strengthened
by being driven to do a cash business, and so
made more powerful as a law breaker, while
the cause oftempcrance is in no possible way
subserved.
