Soe reading mattor on every page.
The steamboat Quaker City was burnt
at tho wharf at Nashville, Tennessee, last
Thursday morinng. She had delivered
hor up freight and had commenced taking
on hor down freight. About sixteen bales
of Cotton were burnt. Sho was valuod
at $7,000, and insured for $5,000 in a
Pittsburg oflico.
Negroes for tho West.
The Wakulla Times of Wednesday says :
“There were about 150 negroos from this
port, went on board the stoamer Magno
lia, bound to Louisiana. Almost every
steamer carries off negro property for
Texas or Louisiana. Some few have re
turned—othors would if they could.”
Resolutions havo been offered and are
pending in tho Arkansas Legislature,
asking tho consent of Congress that Ar
kansas shall enter into a compact with
Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Ken
tucky, and Missouri, relative to tho
making of cut-off’s on tho Mississippi
river, from the mouth to the city of
Cairo, in tho Stato of Illinois, with a
view of reclaiming the swamp and over
flowed lands in tho valley of tho Mis
sissippi.
Tannery Burnt.
The steam tannery of General John G.
Bynum, at Chattanooga, Tenn., together
with tho stock of every description, was
recently destroyed l,y fire. The total
loss is stated at $75,000. It was a very
extensive establishment; said to be the
largest in the Southern country, turning
out ."0,000 sidos of loather annually. It
employed about fifty persons in conduct
ing the business, all of whom havo been
thrown out of employment by tho dis
aster.
The Mortarn Case.
A mass meeting of Israelites and Pro
testants was held in San Francisco on the
I!Uh of January to consider the Mortara
case. Tho Hon. Solomon Heydenfeldt,
formerly of Alabama, lato Judge of the
California Supremo Court, was called to
the chair, and among the speakers were
Rev. Ur. W. A. Scott, Rev. Dr. Peek, Rev.
Dr. Kckman, Rev. Dr. Henry, Messrs.
K. I). Baker, F. P. Tracy, M. M. Noah.
Resolutions were passed to bo sent to
Washington, remonstrating “against this
attack upon religious liberty and freedom
of conscience.”
More Indians Clone West.
The Floridian & Journal of tho 19th
inst., says: “In our telegraphic column
mention is made of the contemplated de
parture of a number of Sotninolcs for
their homes in the West. Sinco the date
of that dispatch the U. S. steamer Mag
nolia arrived at St. Marks, (Feb. 15,)
with Col. Rector on board, and somo
seventy of tho hostile Indians—warriors,
women, children and a few negroes—rem
nants of tho parties of Bowlegs and Sam
Jones, and twenty of tho Arkansas dele
gation—ninety in all.
Not Allowed.
Tho Montgomery Advertiser of the 21st
instant says: “Tho liutchiusons’ per
formance did not take place on Saturday
night, and of course the Beneoia Boy and
Aaron Jones wero prevented from show
ing the science of ‘the manly art of self
defence.’ The authorities stopped the
exhibition.”
Wo are glad to seo Southern cities plac
ing this kind of amusements under the
ban of publio opinion. Such scenes may
suit the ideas of Northern barbarians, but
for Southern gentlemen, never.
Tile Kscapc of (lie Kiuperor of llayti
It appears by further advices from
llayti that, had not the British frigato
Melbourne touched at Port au Prince,
either Soulouque or his Cabinet Ministers,
or perhaps all of them, would havo lost
their lives at the bauds of tho excited
populace, who by thousands surrounded
the French consulate, where the ex-otlioiul
took refuge. As it was, tho ox-Emperor
and his wife ami family had to bo escort
ed through tho streets leading to the
harbor by a si rung force of English
marines, accompanied by tho British and
French consuls, amidst the yells and
bootings of tho luob. It was proposed
by the crowd to fire the house in which
the ex minister was lodged, but President
Geffrard having issued a soothing procla
mation, tho deposod official was permit
ted to go into exile. Ou his arrival at
Kingston, tho ex-Euipcror came near be
ing assassinated by a llaytien refugee.
New Postage Bill.
The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia North American says that
the bill proposed by Mr. Dixon, of Con
necticut, as a substitute for that reported
by Mr. Yulee, from tho l’ost Office Com
mittee, iu regard to tho franking privi
lege, is decidedly preferable, and simpli
fies the whole matter so that no misun
derstanding can exist iu the public miud.
It abolishes the franking privilege entire
ly, and substitutes envelopes for the Pres
ident and officials, to be charged to caoh
department as used, and paid out of the
Treasury. The written and printed mat
ter received to be charged in the same
way, aud at tho rate of five cents au ounce
for letters, and twelve cents a pound for
the other. This amendment leaves the
present law, as applicable to the public
at large, in operation, aud is, therefore,
vastly better than Mr. Yulee's bill raising
the rates of postago for revenue. The
abolition of franking in this form would
not only boa relief to tho Treasury by
increasing the revenue directly, but by
reducing tho expenditures of the depnrt.
nient, both for clerical sei vice and trans
portation, to say nothing of the correction
of the printing abuses which have, in a
measure, grown out of it.
From the Washington States.
Interesting Letter from Cuba.
Havana, Feb. 10, 1869.
Editor Status : There is an indistinct
murmur running through our island of an
approaching change in the form of gov
ernment in Cuba. It was hinted that we
might have a power of our own at an
early day, and this was said before it was
known here that tho American govern
ment had signified its ultimatum of pur
chase.
No intelligent Cuban believes that
Spain will sell Cuba any more than Eng
land would sell Ireland; but the fixed ul
timatum of a choico between one hundred
millions, or the certain and absolute loss
of either island, would force cither power
into negotiation.
You have had your part iu the history
of our long struggle, and know something
of tho unexampled sufferings of the Cu
ban revolutionists, and, consequently,
will know how to appreciate the roports
—which I engage to forward as regularly
as possible—of what we are doing in the
heart of Cuba.
We know but too well that imbecile,
infatuated, vain-glorious Spain, will not
sell Cuba so long as the choice of selling
or rotaining half her kingdom is left to
herßclf; neither will Napoleon—who is
your master, and purs, in this question—
permit the United States to obtain it in
any way while he is Emperor of France,
England, and Spain. But for all this,
wo Cubans do not cease to hope and to
conspire. We keep up our organization,
wo havo our agents, our arms, and our
doubloons at command, and when Lucifer
takes back his best-beloved son, Louis
Napoleon, or when that son and his father
shall have set Europe in a blazo, we will
strike for tho independence of Cuba.
Tho United States Cabinet has three
times thwarted and betrayed the salvation
of Cuba. John Quincy Adams, the syco
phant of European precedent; Fillmore,
the weak tromblor before tho shadow of a
British frown, and Pierce, tho victim of a
northern Secretary of State, each sacri
ficed the Cubans in his day, and neither
of them has left any high record to re
deem tho stain of their vassalage to Eu
ropean policy iu this rejection of the
Island of Cuba.
We who longed for liberty and a place
in the Union, and who had the same
rights and samo desires for annexation
which had animated Texas, had also hoped
that the author of the Ostend Manifesto
would act towards our liberating expedi
tions as brave old Hickory had acted to
wards the Texans. We trusted that Pres
ident Buchanan, having more than equal
excuse for it, would move the United
States forces in the direction of Cuba
with as much decision as Secretary Bucha
nan acted when ho sent General Taylor
across the military and judicial lines of
Mexico. But alas! tho unhoard-of meek
ness with which your Congress submits to
the dictatorial visitation of their ships by
British cruisers, and to the unlimited in
tervention of the Anglo-French alliance
in Santo Domingo, on all parts of tho
American Isthmus, in Mexico, everywhere
in fact, and always with such triumphant
insolence, we begin to despair for Cuba.
These dishonoring facts aro never per
mitted to sleep by the Havana press, and
are much chorished in tho government
circles, and wo who had confided in Amer
ican policy are holding down our heads
in sliame for such cowardly abasement.
Ono hope remained to us for many
months, aud that was in the success of
tho Liberals of Moxioo, who had a com
raon cause with us in their hatrod of
Spain, in their devotion to Democratic
principles, and in the need of a real
emancipation from Europe. We now know
in Havana that your President has reject
ed tho overtures of Mexico, and this act
is an assurance that tho Cubans must not
look to Mr. Buchanan for the freedom of
Cuba. Victor de Espada.
Congressional.
Washington. Feb. 19.—1n tho Senate
to-day several amendments to the consu
lar diplomatic bill were discussed, and
that body was still in session at tho time
of closing this dispatch.
In the House the army bill was amend
ed, and reported back to the House for
final action.
It is generally understood that an effort
will be made in the Seriate, early next
week, to pass the Arizona bill, and the
impression prevails that the effort may
be successful.
Half-past nine p. m. —The Senate has
passed the consular diplomatic bill. Mr.
Simmons gave notice that he would move
its re-cousidcration at an early day.

Unlveraity of the South.
The Winchester Home Journal (says
the Picayune) gives a favorable account
of the progress of subscriptions to tho
University of the South. A letter from
Bishop Polk, of Louisiana, contains tho
following :
1, in connection with Bishop Elliott,
have begun the work of raising the en
dowment fund for the Univorsity of the
South, and are mcctiug with the most
decided encouragement. In one week
over $75,000 was subscribed. The best
of feeling seems to prevail in behalf of
the University, and its friends are more
confident than ever of its success
New Boat.
When in company with some ladies, a
few evenings since, we learned from some
of those fair ones that a project was in
contemplation to build a fine river steam
er to run the Alabama river ; said boat,
when finished, to be officered solely by
ladies, and kept ns a passenger boat. We
never ascertained the expected size of j
the vessel, but presume there will be a ;
great many berths on this boat, as the
travel is great.— Wetumpka Spectator.

John Fulton and Wife vs. Smith et. al.
Demurrer from Houston.
In 1847, William Smith, aged and im
becile, made unequal gifts by deeds of
his estate to somo of his children. Those
not provided for, complained. To quiet
all disputes, all the children agreed, in
writing under seal, that the old gentleman
should not bo disturbed and harassed by
their complaints, and at his death a fair
and equal distribution should be made of
all his estate, including that already
distributed. Held: A good considera
tion, and that one of the parties injured
had the right to enforce tho contract.
2. That as to that portion of the estate
of the common ancester disposed of by
his will to the parties signing the con
tract, that a oourt of chancery had juris
diction, and that execution upon proper
averments was a proper party, aud the

New and Superior Cottou.
The Jackson Mississippian says: “On
our table is a sample of cotton grown by
our countryman, Mr. Evans, which re
cently sold in the Now Orleans market,
by Messrs. Jordan, Mims & Gillespie, for
fifteen cents per pound. Tho cotton, we
learn, was the yield of seed from the
patent office. There was not enough of
its classification to make it an object to
the brokers, or a still better price could
have been obtained. We are assured
that the cotton was cultivated, picked
and ginned by’Mr. Evans precisely as he
did the rest of his crop. Hence the high
figures it commanded are attributable to
its intrinsic merits, which were, of course,
well understood by the excellent mer
chants to whom it was consigned. The
samplo before us is a beautiful specimen
of silky, long staple cotton.

Steamboat Explosions.—Since tho dis.
covcry of the wonderful efficacy of Dr. Bkauo’s
Arctic Liniment in extracting tlie fire from burns
and scalds, it is becoming customary fur the com.
manders of steamers in the Western and Southern
waters to carry a good supply of tho Liniment in
their medicine chests, to be used in cases of tire or
an explosion. This is a judicious arrangement,
but to make sure of a supply, however, in case of
necessity, each passenger should procure a bottle
before going on board. Every family, also, should
keep a supply in tho house, for there is no know
ing at what moment seme member may be badly
burned or scalded, and in case of such casualty,
tlie quicker the Liniment can be applied the hotter.
It instantly extracts tho pain and smart, and if
applied immediately after the accident, will gen
erally prevent blistering. This Liniment is also
invaluable in earing the diseases of hurses, mules,
and other animals.

AND
AMERICAN BITTERS,
THE only kind now iu use in America that is
free from alcoholic effects. It has already
done more real good, and benefited young aud
old more than any article ever before offered.
For restoring a shattered constitution, for
strengthening and invigorating the young and
old, for soothing pain from whatever cause, it is
invaluable. In all cases of Dyspepsia, Colic, Do
bility, Ennui, Indigestion, ltestlessues at night,
Derangement of the Liver, Kidneys, Jaundice,
Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Colds, Hoarseness, it is
great. They are a sure preventive to Chills and
Fever, or Fevers generally, if taken in proper time.
In cases of much pain use them hot both ex
ternally and internally, by applying flannel well
soaked and laying on tho parts affected as hot as
yen can bear it, and at same time drinking from
ono to two wine glassfuls hot, according to nge
and circumstances. It acts like magic; produces
a sereno sleep, and comforts the entire system.
Asa stimulus to invalids, the enfeebled and
sick, those Bitters aro unsurpassable and far better
than tea, being powerful in action and free from
ulcohol. See full directions.
Try it, and bo guided by your own judgment.
It is your friend, and you will say so.
