We ask that the indulgence of Jhe
readers of our daily, may be extended to
us for a few days logger, on account of the,
comparatively, small amount >f geieral
reading matter appeying «n ns columns.
{Text week we shall issue our daily on a
much larger sheet, and shall increase the
size of our weekly in a corresponding de
gree. This will enable us to present our
readers with several columns more of read
ing matter, and, at the same time, to insert
the advertizements crowding our columns
now, as well as those which may, hereafter,
be received, in handsome stylo, and in a
conspicuous manner. Our progress, our
readers, may bo assured, shall be an ON"
WARD one.
CUBA.
The folldwing article appeared in the
Mobile Daily Tribune, of the 24th instant-
With regard to the expedition referred to,
we assume the responsibility of asserting
that the correspondent, at Washington, of
the Tribune, is mistaken.. This we do
from facts which have been placed in our
possession, unJ which set at rest, in our
mind, at least, all reports touching an ex
pedition against that Island.
From statements made recently by our
correspondent at Washington, there is a
formidable expedition on root, for the pur
pose of “ emancipating” Cuba, without in
fringing the laws of United States. Oth
er writers state that the Cuba question will
form the substantial subject of the present
Congress—in what way they do not state;
but they say that the domestic business of
the session will be disposed of as quickly
os possible, in order to secure sufficient
time for the discussion of this very im
portant question.
Beyond all doubt, if the United States
continue to be prosperous and progressive,
Cuba will be a part of our domains. We
do not see how it is possible that it should
be otherwise. And it is only a question
whether our people shall tolerate a violent
accomplishment of this destiny; or ins'st
upon a purchase, resulting perhaps in a
war leading to the same end ; or wait, to
use the idea of some writers, until the
fruit be so ripe as that it will drop into our
national lap.
If the island can be acquired justly and
without a war, which might bo used to
imply violence and injustice, we can hardly
see any thing which would add greater
strength to the power and safety of the re
public, or which would servo more to
strengthen the south and provide for its
future security.
In the progress of nations there seems
to be a destiny which overleaps the code of
individual morals. There is not now a
nation-—Christian or otherwise —which can
submit its actions to that code. There
never has been; and to apply it to national
affairs were to make a rule which might
paralize the strong and conscientious, and
raise to power the weak and politic.
We wore attracted recently by a well
written editorial on this subject in the
Charleston Mercury, the essential part of
which is that the uncongenial nature of
the races of the island would make it n
barren acquisition to the United States—
citing in evidence of the position, the case
of the possessions of Austria in Itnly—ot
Spain in Mexico—and it might have been
added of Austria in Hungary, Prussia in
Poland, and, perhaps, England in Ireland.
But these examples are foreign to the ques
tion, —and for the simple reason that if
the United States acquire Cuba, no mat
ter bow our people may govern it, they
will not be foreign to it, as in the case of
Hungary, Poland, Italy, or Ireland, but be
transfused through it—substituting anoth
er for the present occupants of the soil;
and by their superior vigor and industry,
bending every thing to their own purposes,
in short, making the island sufficiently
strong in American sentiments to govern
itself. In the case of Poland, Italy and
Hungary a brute foreign force keeps the
people in subjection—ut a vast expense
and boundless trouble to the powers which
reign over them. In these cases there is
the substitution of a profound foreign ty
ranny for the native sentiment. It is ad
ding burdens to th<»se which were suffici
ently heavy before. In the case of Cuba,
it would be taking off the burden. It
would be to lighten the toil of every man;
whether Creole, Spanish or whatsoever.
Thus, although a national and traditional
feeling might nt first be offended, a benign
influence would soon mollify, by humane
and just laws, the violence done to it. In
brief, five years of American justice and
political amenities would serve to recon
cile the most inveterate Spaniard or Cre
ole to the new government; and in that
consideration, we find a complete answer to
the chief arguments of the Mercury.

FROM WASHINGTON.
£*S_2>ecft*Z Corrci. of the Daily Examiner J]
Washington, Dec. 20, 1854.
Congress is still at work, and going on
manfully with the public business. They
have had the interests of the District of
Columbia bqfore them, under special rule,
: for the past few days, and I could almost
, believe if a mfracle were possible nowa
days, that, they had read my last letter to
the Examiner, not yet in your composi
tor’s hanm. Mr. McMullen of Va. (a
Democrat) of the “ D vil may care ' stamp,
, introduced a paper, which he called a re
, monstrance, on the part of the citizens of
the District, against the passage of any
law prohibiting the issuing and circulation
of small notes,’ more farmiliarly known as
■ Shin-plasters.
; This remonstrance purported to proceed
. from Mr. Latham, one of the partners in
the late Exchange Banks, and was signed
by several of our citizens whb are amongst
the victimized of the late concern.
This fact excited both curiosity and
■ surprise; and on examination of the doc
ument, it was discovered to the great
chagrin of Mr McMullen, that the paper
in question was a year old, having been
got up for the last Session, and palmed off
on the Hou. Member from Va., by some
mischievous wag. We had, however, some
good speeches on the evils of private
. Banking, and the wholesale swindling of
, which the industrious working man is
most generally the victim.
' The Utah question is now finally dis
' posed of. Col Steptoe is a man of nerve,
and unless he becomes initiated in the
mysteries of Mormonism after he reaches
Sult Lake City, will prove to bo the very
man for that deluded and lawless people.
His Secretary’s appointment was made out,
sent to the Senate and confirmed in two
days. The appointee who is now in Wash
ington, received it this morning. His
name 1 think is Drummond, from Illinois.
I have just had a conversation with him,
and he seems to possess sufficient nerve
for his new position. There will always
be, as he informs me, a sufficient military
force in Salt Lake City, to restrain and
keep in check the Indians; but, his em
phatic pronunciation of the Red Man’s
title led me to infer that tfie military may
have some other duties to attend to in
that quarter besides watching the Indians.
Mark my prediction. Before six months
roll round, we shall have startling news
from Utah. The Mormons can never for
’ get Illinois, and Col. Steptoe is a man of
- nerve, prudence and courage.
The opponents of tho Nebraska Bill
' in Congress have been altogether silent
1 since the arrival, in Washington, of Judge
Douglas. The question of repeal will hard
ly be broached in tho Senate this Session.
> Should it be, Heaven help the mover !
' The Know Nothing Ogan of this city
publishes, in its issue of this evening a
most scurrilous and scandalous article in
directly charging Col. Forney, clerk of
• the House of Rep rose ntuves, with a mul
-1 versation of the public funds. In my
last, I adverted to the Globe’s publication
‘ of the Exchange Bank swindle. In the
schedule of assets the name of Col. For
ney, appears amongst the debtors to that
Institution, to the amount of upwards of
1 six thousand dollars. The Organ pounces
upon this statement as evidence that
quoad hoc, Col Forney is a Defaulter.
The whole dealings that Col. Forney has
ever had with thisswindlingshop amounts
to this:
Mr. Kenedy, late Superintendent of
the Census Bureau under Mr. Fillmore,
was actually indebted to this Bank to the
amount set forth in the schedule as charg
ed against Col. F, Some time since, the
1 former gentleman sold to the latter, on a
long credit, a house in this city, and in
the course of negotiations it was agreed
that instead of making payments to Kenc
dv the money as it became due should be
■ placed in the Exchange Bank in liquid i
tion of this debt. In other words. Col. I
Forney’s name was sul stituted on the
’ books of the bank for those of Mr. Kene
t dy, and thus it happened that the name
> of that gentleman is found amongst the
■ debtors to that concern.

FROM WASHINGTON.
[•Special correspondence of the Daily Examiner.]
EXTRA OF OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.
Washington, Dec. 21.
I received this morning from a friend
in Albany who ought to know, the follow
ing statement, which, if corroborated by
the result, will verify my predictions,
made long since, that Seymour “would be
Governor of New York by between 2 and
300*’ —as this is but a sort of postscript
to my letter of the 19th. I will merely
give your readers the figures, as the result,
when ascertained, will speak for itself and
also for mp accuracy.
The majority awarded to M. H. Clark
is 3G7. From this the judges of election
insist that there should be deducted all the
scattering votes intended for Seymour,
aud jiiany other votes illegally given to
The scattering, inis spelled, but I
tho meaning of which is clear, aredevided
between Clark and Seymour as follows:
For Clark, 147
For Seymour, 312
Majority for Seymour, 165
only 11 of these scattering votes are given
to Seymour. Besides, it is claimed that
in Madison 80 votes were given by Stu
dents of Hamilton College, who were
either minors or non-residents;'2s votes
are forced for Seymour in Broome and
Steuben counties, after a close examina
tion of the polls, and the majority of 215 ,
for Clark in Schuyler county is declared ;
to be a mere nullity.
The Abolition Commissioners of the
town of Burris, Allegany county, correct
ed the returns, and contrary to the rule
adopted at the election, and the rule of
law, transcribed the name of Myron 11. I
Clark frnm all the illegible and cabalistic I
marks that they found in the ballot-box. ■
Let it be remembered by the Smith jhati
this was done, in the teeth of a rule
agreed to before the election that ail mis
spelled names should be rejected—a rule '
which cost Mr. Seymour some 6?0 votes.
The upshot is that Seymour's majority
is 243 —and his friends, and the friends
of pure, unxc(lionized Democraoy through-'
out the country will insist upon a thorough i
in vestignt ion. BR F Tl' S.
LOOKING BACK.
It is instructive oftiines to look back, >
and compare the past with the present, in •
order to see what progress has been made ,
with the lapse of years. We clip the fol- i
lowing pragraph from the editorial depart
ment of the Georgia Journal, penned just
a quarter of a century ago It will be 1
seen that the Journal boasted that it re- |
ccived a printed copy of the president’s'
message fifty-four hours after it had been
transmitted tu both houses of Congress.— 1
Now, if the message is not received by the .
editors simultaneously with the reading in
Washington, it causes quite a complaint
amongst them:
President’s Message.—Ffty-four hours
after the President’s • Message had been i
transmitted to both houses of Congress, a
printed copy of it was presented to us by
Mr. Knox, the mail contractor for the line
extending from Warrenton, through Mil
ledgeville, to Fort Mitchell. The distance I
between this place and Washington City
is about 689 miles. This extraordinary
despatch enables us to lay before the pub-1
lie this interesting document Mr. Knox I
deserves great credit, for his exertions in i
bringing about this despatch; and heshould
’ be remunerated in some sort for the ex
pense he has incurred in providing horses
through the liue for the express who had
the message in charge. Additional praise
should be awarded to Mr. Knox ; for wc
have been informed that the contractor of
the liue from Augusta to Warrenton, re
' fused to participate in the arrangement
made to obtain the message in so short a ‘
time.— Geo. Journal, Dec. 12, F 834.
Here is another extract taken from a 1
paper us 1833, concerning Audubon, the j
ornithologist, which gives us a correct idea
of bis labors and travels in pursuit of his ‘
favorite study:
Mr. Audubon (says the Philadelphia i
Herald, of the Ist instant,), has been a i
few days with us, wearing, as we hope he
always majr, the appearance of a man oft
forty, and is in the enj lyment of the most)
perfect health. He isuff this morning for j
a trip to the Floridas; thence acro<s Ar-!
kansas; up the Missouri, to the Mandan 1
Country ; thence to the Rocky Mountains.; !
scaling which, he means to ramble along;
the shores of the Pacific. May safety and
I health attend him, and every wrtof pros-\
I rtfy.

CoMioiND I.NEERKSr.—Few readers:
can readily and accurately appreciate the .
enormous stride made by any sum of mon
ey when allowed to increase in the way
of interest. We may give the following
instance for illustration: A gentleman who
had been a member for forty-seven
years, of one of our charitable associations,
. Could scarcely be persuaded of the amount
made by placing at compound interest the
sum total of his annual contributions, j
which were ten dollars, paid in quarterly
instalments. The result stands thus:
Amount of actual contributions.
