MORNING NEWS.
THE MOTHERLESS.
God help and shield the motherless,
The stricken, bleeding dove,
For whom there gushes no rich fount
Of deep and deathless love !
The saddest titles grief confers—
For whoso lone as they,
Upon whose path a mother’s love
Sheds not its holy ray?
No gentle form above them bends
To soothe the couch of pain;
No voice so fond as her’s essays
To calm the feverish brain.
Oh! other tongues may whisper love
In accents soft and mild:
But none on earth so pure as that
A mother bears her child !
Judge kindly of the motherless;
A weary lot is theirs,
And oft the heart the gayest seems,
A load ot sorrow bears.
No faithful voice directs their stops,
Off-bids them onward press;
“And if they gang a kennin wrung,”
God help the motherless !
And when the sinful and the frail,
Thd tempted and the tried,
Unspotted one! shall cross thy path,
Oh! spurn them not aside.
Thou knowest not what thou hadst been
With trials even less;
And when thy lips would vont reproach,
Think, they were motherless !
A blessing on the motherless,
Where’er they dwell on earth,
Within the home of childhood,
Or at the stranger’s hearth!
Blue he the sky above their heads,
And bright the sun within;
Oh! God protect the motherless,
»And keep them free from sin !
Correspondence of Newark Daily Advertiser.
The Delights of Cuban Travel.
Matanzas Jan. 21.
Were it not that “sweets to the sweet”
might prove a sort of surfeit, I should be
tempted to send you a closed vase, full of
the balmy, fragrant air of this sweet clime
of Ind; and, for ornament, the Cuban
groves should furnish rich stores of
“ flowers and evergreens.
With 'Beauty's blandishments thy sense to tire/’
To you of the frozen north, how delight
ful would prove, just now, the importation
of a tropical, island-breeze, laden to ful
ness with its soft incense, scattering
orange blossoms on your whiter white
snow fields, and wooing the cold Nor
Wester to awarmer humor;—changing
bleak January into laughing June. What
think you ofthe hour of 6 1-2 for rising?
Yet all the world of Matanzas are up, and
dressed by 7. From that hour until 10, is
the only time, during the day, that exer
cise is endurable for us pale faces, and
then the cool air of the early morning is
so delicious and so refreshing. It gives a
man a new, daily lease of life; forfeited
omy, by breaking the covenant, which
nature insists upon, of keeping in-doors
•during the heat of the day.
The trades, at this season, blowing
steadily from the blue Gulf, come freight
ed with the invigorating airs of ocean; the
atmosphere is clear, and lor the last few
cays, the sky cloudless and serene. You
can revel in all the mildness of July
weather dress as thin as taste, fancy, or
•inclination prompt—fan yourself into a
doze any time during the day—eat (if
Y° u can)Jazily, and as indolently as a
i oatrap of Scinde—take your cafe noir,
smoke cigarettes, and go volanta-riding
j<m the Paseo, gazing as impudently as
you choose upon the dark, creole Senori-
tas. This is wasteful indolence according
to our notions, the height of pleasure with
Ithe Cubans.
H ith all these climate beauties, let me
Ruira ^• tner * cans not to visit Cuba for
H health or pleasure. The discomforts far,
g: ar ®*® ee d» all that is pleasurable ofnovel-
|ty, climate, or scenery. To the man of the
iworld, seeking amusement, or the travel
ler student, he fast place is Cuba; you can
find hut, few of the excitements of the
great American, or continental cities. In
Havana, an opera, a bull-fight, cock-fight
ing and masquerades; these comprise the
stranger’s pleasure. You see none of the
galleries of the Old World;—none ofthe
charms that the fine arts there, with open
hand, throw in noble profusion to feast
the eye and elevate the taste. None of the
classical and historical associations of that
Italy, whose princes, once the lords and
conquerors of the world, have left beliind
them monuments of the far time, at whose
ruined shrines the scholar kneeis,and pays
his reverent homage to those
groat of old,
. Whose spirit* rule us from their urns.”
4 No grand, majestic scenery. No al-
[ )ine mountains or castellated rivers, no
akes that sleep in tranquil, azure beau
ty, no cities filled with the wonders of
man’s creative genius. Were it not that
Cuba is called civilized, I should write,
that the islanders are but a remove from
Greece and the Greeks. Enlightened they
are not, never will be, until the Anglo-
American takes, with the strong hand, or
by purchase, this fertile island from the
withering rule of Spain. ’Tis bad
enough lor the well, worse for the invalid,
in Havannn. Once out ol that city, and
farewell to all the comforts and luxries so
necessary to those who are accustomed to
American living.
The roads are bad—the railway scircu-
itous, dusty, and dreadfully fatiguing in
their slow speed, and the station-houses,
mere sheds where refreshments fit only for
do'gs can be procured. The steamboats
that ply around the coast, small and bad
ly appointed. The country inns—why,
you ride up to one, trot your horse into
the room on the first floor, and eat and
drink Irom the saddle. Horses, mules,
volantas, cows and negroes, are packed
at night, indiscriminately, below stairs,
whilst above, a mattrass and a pillow are
luxuries seldom procurable.
Here, at Matanzas, the boarding-house
is certainly one of the best on the island,
and yet a single-bedded room is out
of the question; a mattrass and pillow
stuffed with cotton, were given to part of
us as a special favor; carpet, rugs or
matting, figments of the fancy, and the
furniture such as one would buy, if on his
last legs, at a pawn-broker’s. As for the
bed-rpoms, we call them dens, strong
holds of mosquitos; were it not for mos
quito bars, we should be devoured. Four
of us, of the male gender have been oc
cupying the dining room for the last few
nights, and this custom of economy of
room is quite the thing on the island.
As for eating, eggs and rice, fish and
bread, fruits and dolces, are about the
only articles safe to indulge in. The
meats are just fit for a Cuban, vegetables
are not much better, butler is grease,garlic
broth is called soup, tea you’d suspect,
nay swear, never saw China, and with
sugar all aronnd you, it may be sweet,
but ’tis many removes from white. Oh!
asNumposays, “ fora good, fat leg of
mutton, all stuck round with turnips ;” Pd
compromise for a dinuer atL.’e, the very
thought of which makes me envy those
of my friends who are habitues of the
place. Truly, truly, it is a miserable
country forcomfort.no place for the invalid.
Take an unprejudiced and somewhat ex
perienced, traveller’s word for it, that all
the glowing sketches of Cuba and the
Spaniards, must be taken as applying
only to the charming climate God has
given them, and to the fertile soil that trop
ical sun warms into most luxuriant pro
ductiveness.
Imposition and double-dealing, per
vade the high and the low. Ounces are
openly administered to bribe officials, and
smuggling is a regular trade. In pur
chasing or hiring, a bargain is always
necessary, the price demanded, being
invariable, double the value of the-
article or service. Extortion, i n every
shape, by public officers, is practised up
on the stranger, and such a thing as re
dress unknown. The highest price, of
fered for luxuries and accommodations
of living, (in our sense of the words)
fails to procure what, really, is not pro
curable, The negroes, generally, know
one thing well, (their fashion.) One can
c ook. another wash, a third brush your
coal, and a fourth your boots; beyond
this ’tis almost useless to attempt to make
them understand, they are too dumb to
be tought more than one kind of employ
ment—to a-indolent to perform it if they
could. The field slaves are kept active
by the lash, and do their work different
ly-
The Creole population lack energy and
true manhood. They are generally ig
norant, (with exceptions ol course) ap
pear pusillanimous and are seldom well
formed. I have not seen a sturdy, pow
erful man amongst them. The large ma
jority are strongly in fnvor of the “annex
ation of Cuba,” and hate the Spaniards
with a bitter hate.
There isnodoudt, at this moment, a
movement in the U. S ; aiming ar the ac
quisition of Cuba by violence. It is the
opinion of sensible men in Havana, natives
of the island, that a few thousand men
would effect such an object—and so dis
gusted have I become with Spanish rule
and Spanish character, that I fervently
hope such an expedition will succeed.
Under our hands, it would become civiliz
ed, ten times more productive, lree from
monstrous exactions upon trade, rid of
its hosts of viperous officials, and it is the
key to the Gull of Mexico. Let us get
it by purchase or negociation, fairly and
honorably, i( possidle. These views may
sound strange to your readers, but nine-
tenths ql them would agree with me,
were they here to see Cuba as she is.
Yours, &c. S.

This preparation is a highly Concentrated Ex
tract, containing ult the Active Medicinal Prop
erties of the Conyza, (commonly known as Black

These plants havo been long since used among
our Southern Negroes and in empyrical practice,
with the happiest results, in cuses of Chornic
Rheumatism, Ulcers of long standing, "and Sec
ondary Syphilis. It is much superior to any pre
parations of Sarsaparilla as an alterative, being
more active and prompt ill its operation on tho
system. These facts have induced the subscrib

PROSPECTUS OF THE
DAILY MORNING NEWS,
An Independent Commercial and News Paper, to be
Published in the City of Savannah.
BY JOHN M COOPER,
EDITED BY W. T. THOMPSON,
Author of “ Major Jones' Courtship," “Chronicles of
Pincvillt:,” “ Sketches of Travel," tye- §c.
Experience has proven both the practicability and
usefulness of tlie penny Press. Within the few years
past all the Northern and Eastern cities, as well ns
most of those South and West of us, have been sup
plied with papers of this description, whose small di
mensions enable their publishers to issue them at a
price solow as to place them within the reach of all,
and thus to make them the bestmediuins for the gen
eral diffusion of information on jail subjects bearing
upon the interests,of community. By cheapening the
Press, all have been participants in its benefits, while
the publishers and conductors, by a greatly increased
patronage,have been made amply remunerated for their
expenditure of capital and labor.
Believing that the glowing prosperity of Savannah
authorizes, and that her interests demand the estab
lishment of a cheap commercial and news medium,
we have determined to publish the Daily Morning
News as nearly as possible upon the plan of the penny
PreaB of the Northern cities.
Tho Morning News will bo emphatically a Com
mercial Newspaper, devoted to the diffusion cf useful
information on ail subjects of popular.interest, and to
the advancement of City and State interests, gener
ally ; preserving at all times a strictly neutral and
independent position in regard to Politics and Parties.
Arrangements have been made for giving the paper all
the facilities enjoyed by -the best Daily Papers, and
no pains willbe spared to make it satisfactory in all its
departments, and to give it tlie character of a res
pectable, useful, and reliable Journal.
In view of the great advantages which must result
to the citizens and business man from the establishment
of such a paper in Savannah, tve feel that we may ask
and safely oount upon a liberal support.
Terms.—The Daily Morning News will be issued
and served to subscribers at $4, per annnm, payable
half yearly, in advance ; or, 10 Cents porweek, pay
able to tho Carriers.

P ROFESSOR BARRY'S TRI-
COPHEROUS, or MEDICATED COM
POUND—Infallible for renewing, invigorating,
and beautifying the HAIR, removing Scurf,
Dandruff, and all affections of the Sculp, and
curing eruptions on tho Skin, Diseases of the
Glands, Muscles and Integuments, and reliev
ing Stings, Cuts, Bruises, Sprains, &c. &c.—
With this Preparation, “there is no such word
as fail.” The first journal in America, medi
cal men of the highest eminence, prominent citi
zens, of till professions, and ludies who have used
it for years, in their dressing rooms and nur
series, admit with one accord, that, for impart-
ing vigor, gloss, luxuriance and curl to the hair
eradicating scurf and dandruff, healing wounds
curing contusions, sprains, stings, &c., and re
lieving diseases of tlie skin, tho glur.ds, and the
muscles, it 1ms no equul among the multitude
of compounds advertised in the public prints,
or used in private practice. In cheapness as
well as efficacy, Barry's Tricophnrous is un
rivalled. The immense cash sales of tho arti
cle, have enabled the inventor to supply it at
retail, at 25 cents per bottle, which is from fifty
to one hundred per cent less, than the price of
any other preparation for tho lrnir now in use.
The scientific treatise on the hair and tho skin,
(embracing valuable directions for tho culture
and preservation ot Nature’s choicest orna
ment,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is
alone worth tlie money.
Tho affinity between the membranes which
ennstituo the skin,-and the hair which draws its
sustenance from this triplo envelope, is very
close All diseases of tho hair originate in the
skin of the head. If the pores of the scalp
arc clogged, or if the blood and other fluids do
not circulate freely through the small vessels
which feed the roots with moisture, and im
part life to the fibres, the result is scurf, dund-
(uff, shedding of their hair, grayness, dryness,
and harshness of tho ligaments, and entire
baldness, us the case may be. Stimulate the
skin to heaPhful action with tho Trieopherous,
und the torpid vessels, recovering their activity,
will annihilate the disease. In all affections of
the skin, and of tho substrata of muscles and
integuments, the process and the effect are the
same. It is upon the skin, the muscular fibres,
and the glands, that tho Trieopherous has its
specific action, and in all affections and injuries
of these organs, it is a sovereign remedy.
