The Ciba Project. —The. annexed extract
from ibe New-Yoik loiter <>l (he Washington
Union makes some rather remarkable additions
to the rumors current respecting the mysterious
movement. If we could only be satisfied of
thoir truth, they would deserve to be culled
important:
Under these circmstances, and under the be.
lief that the English, French mid American
population of the island will gladly exchange
the antiquated rule ot old Spain for laws, insti
tutions, privileges and influences in the state
more in accordance with the spirit of the age, a
large number of wealthy Creole families and
individuals are prrpariug to assert the inde
pendence of the island on the first favorable op
portunity. They have bought arms, military
atones, &c., &e., to a large extent in this count
ry and England, almost all of which have long
since passetl beyond the jurisdiction of the Uni
ted States and Great Britain, having been land
ed and stored (not in Cuba, but elsewhere) at
points most convenient for the purposes of the
native Cubans.
For two years past they have been buying
such merchandise liberally among us, as in
England ; and there are now a large number
of wealthy and patriotic Creoles of the island

likely at once to create a deeper sympathy in !
their cause in the breast of the American peo-1

In their ultimate success on the part of all resi- j
dents of their island.
Thus, it is understood that had Gen. Worth
lived, he would ere this have resigned libs com
mission in the American army, and commenced
planting in Cuba, to be ready to head the move
ment whenever essayed. The leaders in the
proposed enterprise—those who furnish the
means—undoubtedly considered him pledged to
this purpose, and have been sadly put to it to
supply the want of an American commander-in
chief, of gallant daring, great experience and
reputation—equal, in moral elfect, to half an
army.
lowa. —The following party resolutions,
based upon the ground of non-intervention, were
adopted by the lute Democratic State Conven
tion of lowa :
Resolved, That we deprecate any separate
and sectional organizations in any portion oflhe
country, having for their object the advocacy of
an isolated point, involving feeling and not
fact, pride and not principle, as destructive to {
the peace anil happiness ol the people, and:
dangerous to the stability ol’ilie Union.
Resolved, That inasmuch as the territories j
Ail New Mexico and California come to us free. (
etui nre free now, by law, it is our desire that j
they tlioiild remain forever free ; but that until 1
it is proposed to repeal the laws, making the
country fK'e, uud to erect others in their stead
for tho extension of slavery, we deem it inex
pedient and improper to add to the further dis
traction of the public mind by demanding, in
the mime of the Wilmot “Proviso, what is nl
letvdy amply necumt l.y ft)” laws oflhe land.
To Wash Linen. —'J/fie best way to lake
iron stains out ot linen, is to dip the stained
parts in a solution ol oxalic acid for about ten
minutes, and then wash out in warm, and finish
in cold water. Twenty minutes will complete
the operation. All other stains except grease
(which can lie removed by simple washing)
must be bleached. This is done by steeping
the linen after it is washed, in a clear solution
of the chloride of lime or potash, for a few
hours—taking care that none of the linen is
above tho water- then take out the linen and
wash it, then put it through some clear water
slightly soured with sulphurid acid, when it
should he afterwards washed well, and run last
ly through a tub of clear cold water, with a W-1
tie blue in it, then wrung out and dried. These ‘
stuffs and this process, have shortened the old
way of bleaching green goods, front fear months
to one day—in fact to a few hour's- Scorched
linen in a burned piece, nud the best remedy if
only singed, is to wash in white soap, then
rinse and treat with a little oxalic acid as men
tioned above.
To whiten linen, there is no use of milk— 1
the boiling of linen is a common practice to!
xvhiten, every body knows that. The grand 1
thing about w hitening linen, is to use plenty I
of water, plenty of good soap, and take out all j
the grease, and be sure to wash all the soap
out of it. If this is not done, tho linen will be
full of yellow streaks.
To take out stains of indelible ink, go to the
apothecary and purchase ten cents worth of
cyanuret of potash, or cyanide of potash, prop.

Lithographic Stone. —-The Talladega Re
porter states that Dr. Henry McKenzie, of that
village, has entered a tract of land in Tujlade
ga county, which contains a bed of lithographic
stone of the very best quality. Ail the litho.

much cheaper from si quarry in Alabama than
from Europe. The editor of the Reporter,
speaking of this valuable discovery, says : ‘We
have seen the Talladega and the German stone
compared, and those who are familiar with the
qualities which constitute the excellence ol the
article, say that the former is greatly superior
to the latter. Indeed, specimens of the former
have been submitted to the examination of one
of tho most eminent engravers of Philadelphia,
and he pronounces it of tho very best quality.
The bed is immediately on the banks of the
Coosa l iver, and conveniently’ situated for cheap
transportation.’
| There has also been found in Talladega a
i liundance ol Tripoli, as good, we understand,
|as any in use. Tripoli is an article used by

brought from the country of that name.
An Affectionate Spinrr.—We sometimes
meet with men who seem to think that any in
diligence in an affectionate feeling is a weak- ;
ness. They will return homo from a journey )
and greet|their families with a distant dignity I
and move among their children with the cold
and lofty splendor of an iceberg surrounded by
its broken fragments. There is hardly a more
unnatural thing on earth than one of those fam
ilies without a heart.
A father had better extinguish his boy’s eyes
than take away his heart. Who that had ex
perienced the joys of friendship, and knows the
worth of sympathy and affection, xvould not
er lose nil that is beautiful in nature’s
than be robbed of tho hidden treasure of h^
I heart. Who would not rather bury his wife

From the Enquirer.
‘Civis’ of the Democrat., floundered through a I
garbed statement of Judge Hill’s course in the
Legislature in No. 1 ; hobbled through a mis
statement of the facts of the trial in Jasper, in No.
2; struggled into poetry in No. 3; and let down
in what would have been No. 4. He should
have concluded with‘misrepresentations correct,

808 SHORT.
The above is all the answer we have yet seen
to the scathing and searching operation of our
Correspondent, ‘Civis,’ into the ‘pretensions of
Judge Hill’to the Governorship, save what has
been said by the Rome ‘Bulletin.’ If ‘Bob
Short’ thinks ‘Civis’ has made a ‘misstatement,’
it is the easiest thing in the world to refute the
allegations the latter has made. ‘Civis,’ himself
in No. 4, points out the method, CO” Oet Col.
Water's certificate of the falsity of the statement
and the cannon of ‘Civis’ is spiked at once. But
not otherwise. It cannot be done by th e face
tiousness of‘Boii Short” or tho <i£wsf ofthe ‘Bulle
tin.’ This Editor has no right to denounce that
as ‘false’ and ‘slanderous’ which the people of
Jasper know to be true. Nor will his calling
‘Civis’ an ‘telhilowed and graceless scamp’ be
proof of anjb f but the Editor’s skill, in the
use of bilh^JHic! That is all. It will not

Round Islanders.—' The army and Navy officers |
sent to look after the assemblage convened at Round
Island, Pascagoula, are making Judies of themselves
by issuing their proclamations and proclaiming mar
tial law, and embargo, &c. against unarmed citizens.
Lieut. Randolph of theU. S. Ship, Albany, and Col.
G. M. Totten of the army are the individuals who
have thus set at defiance the laws of Mississippi and
the rights of freemen, without the shadow of author- j
ity for so doing. Randolph tells the persons assem
bled at Round Island that they are 1 vagrants in law
and in fact’ and cannot be permitted to occupy their
present position. He also says that he will cut off 1
all supplies from the Island after a certain date. And
all this when there is not a single stand of arms on j
the Island, or any other evidence of intent to violate !
the laws of the Union. Such high-handed issump- j
tion of authority,on the part of tliese.officers, is receiv- j
jpg proper rebuke from the press of New Orleans j
and Mobile, and should, at once, be condemned by j
the authorities at Washington.

The above is from the Athens ‘Banner,’ that

that he would never again support a Calhoun

The said Editor may make all he can out of
our remark, that wo had not spared Mr. Polk
when guilty of error. Mr. Polk was a great
and good man, but be was not inlallible. He
was liable to err, as all other human beings.
We think he erred several times, first in giving
up a part of Oregon after declaring that our title
to the whole was ‘clear and unquestionable,’
2dly in signing the Oregon I erritorial Bill, with
the Wilinot Proviso attached, and 3dlv, in con
ferring office in some cases, upon individuals,
solely because they once had distinguished fathers
and in opposition to the public will. Ncverthe
less we have not blazed away and mean not to
‘blaze away at Mr. Polk,’ because he is now
numbered with the dead, and because while
living, he was an honorable and upright repub

To Hon. E. Y. Hill:
The rock mav be carved by much labor into fantas
tic shapes, and polished by the hand of art; it is still
cold, heartless and lifeless. Although it may be said to
represent a statesman or a hero, no Promethean spark
of patriotism can be made to glow beneath its bur
nished surface, nor warm its frigid nature. Artificial
heat sullies its character and destroys its fitness for
farther use. Yon, sir, may thus look on the world
around you, as a mirror reflecting many representa
tions of yuur moral state : your sensitiveness only w
revealed under disclosures of your conduct; for it i
thejfestering of an inward disease that, like burns,-
smart most acutely when exposed to the air. Char
acter is similar to the bone formation of man : io
health it knows no pain of itself by cutting or harsh
treatment. Lei chronic disease pervade its structure,
j and it becomes more acute than any other part ot the
: body, and its corruption more offensive. The simile is
: harsh ; we have giyen the regular exposition of facts,
ka'aJ these sketches vou to the
, rT-lw ;
Wt ciiiimjt . sir, have any
that act for you. None have dared to
ments of “Civis.” Garbled, nonsensical and irrele
vant private certificates float among a limited num
ber, to counteract the truths which they fear must in
evitably injure E. Y. Hill. A wag has suggested
that we may look, also, for the statement of Gen.
Taylor, to prove that E. Y. Hill, as far as he kjioict,
treated Mr. Vaughn kindly, justly, affectionately, and
even fatherly. What a farce to act before high heav
cn! #
Some have given statements, knowing nothing
‘•Civis” had uttered on the same subject. Jesuistical
questions have been propounded with no pertinency
to the real issue. They are evasive, subtle and de
lusive. This is a novel way of defending a reputa
tion publicly exposed. The true question to which
all honest men will drive you, is this: Are the
charges of ‘-Civis” true ? Let the Democratic party
and the Whigs ask Col. Waters (who voted lor Hill
forjudge.) whether Ned Hill told him that he would
show the case to he bailable to the Court if he could
be employed in the case, although he had told the
i court, in the most solemn manner that it was
bailable case. Col. Waters’ veracity will nX be
questioned. His certificate is worth more than
Queen of England’s, the Emperor of Russia s, or the
Sultan of Turkey’s. Your friends, sir, may, through
much importunity, elicit statements to circulate pri
vately. We impute no censure to gentlemen, who,
to avoid annoyance, give what they knoic —which hai
little hearing—and amounts to nothing, and oljly to
