VIII.
It was a day of August hot:
The Presiuent up early got,
And shaved, and washed, and then did he
Look out to see what he could see.
IX.
The dusty trees, the Avenue,
Were all that met his anxious view;
But presently he heard a coach
With rattling, fiery speed approach:
X.
And then another; then the twain
Drove up; the drivers drew the rein,
The footmen jumped, the doors flew wide,
The visiters stepped forth with pride.
XI.
In majesty, of coursc. superior,
Punt came the Honorable Interior,
Who gloried at his management
To show around tho President!

Virginia's sou had argued thus:
?I'll take him down to visit us;
The Old Dominion boys will stare,
And me a clover lad declare!
XIII.
"Why Bandy," will they say, "Indeed,
Is such a man as must succeed!
See what a favorite he Is!

XIV.
So Sandy smiled, and then his thought
Went on : " Poor Dickon's sold and bought!
He get Virginia's vote?oh, dear I?
But/shall win by't, never fear!"

Now spare mr, frieads, your dread reproaches,
For having left so long the roaches;
And m.-uutl) I ?? wheel about,"
To let another wonder out.

Cuba.?An Impartial View.
Wc quote the following remarks from tlio
New York Christian Advocate, the organ of tht
Methodist Episcopal Church. Knowing as we
do that the conductors of that print are neither
political partisans, stockjobbers, robbers, nor
pirates, and believing that none but the over
righteous of our conservative cotemporaries will
feel disposed to pronounce them such, we have
looked into their columns for a clear and calm
judgment upon the matter in question; and
there we have found it. It embodies the senti
ments we have time and agein expressed, and,
if we do not greatly err, the sentiments of the
American people. __
Ci'SAit Affairs.?The recent effort to revolu
tionize Cuba has resulted in the signal discom
fiture of the expedition under General Lopez.
The torch of war has been queuched in blood,
and the leader and hundreds of his followers have
died in the vain attempt to wrest the "queen
of the Antilles" from Spanish domination.
? #?***
We are not, perhaps, in possession of data
sufficient to justify a positive opinion of the
character of the enterprise which has resulted
so disastrously, yet we cannot forbear speaking
a word in deprecation of the utter and sweep
ing condemnation of the gallant dead. It has
been said, " an unsuccessful revolution is a re
bellion, and a successful rebellion is a resolu
tion." The principle involved in this apothegm
is, doubtless, that by which the popular mind
is'too often guided in judging of the character
of the struggles which occur to change existing
forms of government. Bnt the right is not in
validated by failure, nor the wrong sanctified
by success. It is mortifying to observe the
course of some of the public prints on this sub
ject. While the success of the expedition un
der Lopez was problematical, they were ex
tremely cautious of condemning it; but as its
prospects grew darker, their indignation in
creased until the epithets of pirates, freeboot
ers. and banditti were freely lavished upon the
leader and his followers. Let us, however,
(.peak as kindly as truth will permit of the dead.
If the invaders of Cuba erred, they have fear
fully expiated their error. And judging by
principles recognised as sound on this side of
the Atlantic, it is not clear that Lopez ami his
followers deserved the epithets of pirates ?nd |
banditti. . ...
The latter may have been, nay, doubtless
were deceived, with respect to the state of feel
ing among the inhabitants of Cuba, but their
motives were probably pure and disinterested.
They periled their lives, to aid, as they sup
posed, an oppressed people struggling to be
free. The smallness of the force that landed in
Cuba, sending away the vessel that carried
them, and thus depriving themselves of all
means of escape from the island, confirm this
view. That the object of the invaders was
plunder and robbery, we cannot believe. The
hapless Crittenden we knew in other days, as a
gentleman of transparent integrity, and lotty
jense of honor, and we <%n never believe he
would become the leader or companion of rob
bers by sea or land. Neither can these epithets
be justly applied to Lopez. He did not cer
tainly intentionally deceive his followers He
was doubtless as puinfully disappointed as any
or his followers, at not receiving a cordial und
earned* support from the Creoles of Cuba. A
Spaniard by birth, and long a resident of tb
island, he was intimately acquainted both with
the unmitigated tyranny of the government and
t ie dissatisfaction of the people ; and in his
earnest efforts to carry the blessings of freedom
to his countrymen, he deserves the praise, not
tlie execrations of the free.
Let us not bo misunderstood. We believe
that the people possess the right to change their
form of government, when, in their estimation,
it becomes too oppressive and burdensome.
And if the majority of the inhabitants of Cuba
desire to throw off the Spanish yoke, then was
L.?pez not a pirate, but a martyr to liberty.
i1| f !Lrb,!'?,U8 P?1,cy pursued by the author
L of the island toward the prisoners must
have a fatal reaction. The, worse than useless
massacre of captives will be like the sowing of
the dragon's teeth; and their blood crying from
tlie ground will demand vengeance from their
countrymen and friends. Though it is doubt
ful whether the union of these State* could
survive the annexation of Cuba, yet we think
her independence of Spani-h rule is a question
or time only. As certain as the future becomes
the present, Cuba will be free; and front the
grave of Lopez and his followers will >print;
thei armed hands that shall atriko off her fetter*,
and proclaim her emancipation.

Europe.
Those who have latterly-contented them
selves with a glance at the current intelligence
trom fcurope, thinking its dullness worth no
more, will do well to resume the habit of care
ful reading. *
In regard to France, there seems to be no
longer a reason to doubt that the Prince do
Jomville has resolved to imitate the example
of Louis Napoleon, and seek return to France
by means of an election, either to the National
Assembly or to the Presidency. It is said that
he will first try the former, with a view, of course,
to the latter. A special election w about to bo
held to fill the vacancy in the department of
rinisterre, where the Prince is exceedingly
popular, especially in the maritime city ol
Brest. He will be elected, and then the ques
tion will be on the abrogation of the decree of
banishment, which now forbids him, as well as
all the other members of his family, to return
to France. This it is supposed will be accom
pushed; he will return and take his seat;
next he will be put in nomination for the Presi
ciency, and will himself bo at Paris to direct
the manoeuvres of the electoral campaign. It
would but add another to the strange vicis J
eitudes of affairs, should this descendant of 1
Bourbon kings appear, a few months hence, 1
before the National Assembly to take the oath <
of fidelity to the republic as its President.
The Austrian emperor, without ado, annuls '
the constitution of March 4, 1819, and restores
his empire in name, as it has long been in '
reality, to all the advantages of unmixed abso
lutism. Henceforth it is announced that the
ministers of Austria are responsible to no other
political authority than the monarch, and know
no other source of power. To him they swear
unconditional fidelity; his resolutions concern
ing the laws and maxims of justice they are to
carry out, and the Hexchsrath, or council of the
empire, is now his council alone, and is to give
its opinion when the emperor demands it. After
these ordinances his imperial majesty, in a let
ter which might well pass for a capital joke I
hands over the constitution to his prime min- |
ister and the president of the Reichsrath, for 1
them to decide by ripe and serious considera
tion whether it can be maintained and carried
out.
We welcome these imperial ordinances with
profound satisfaction. They tell the truth, and
ning away the mask. They come in time, too, to
match the last manifestation of the other great
German government.
Gold in Australia?The British colonists
are overjoyed at the discovery of the Mftfcy a
Mr. llargraves, that the country, from the
mountain ranges to an indefinite extent in the
interior, is one immense gold field. It has pro
duced a tremendous excitement in the town of
Bathurst and the surrounding districts.
The London Standard remarks that "assum
ing the auriferous toil of BatbuV-st will prove
as rich as that of California, we anticipate re
sults from the discovery of its wealth very dif
ferent from those who, we must say it, have
made California a by-word and a reproach. In !
the first place, the Bathurst district is tolera- I
bly well peopled, and subject to and familiar -
with a government of law. It lies about two ,
hundred miles inland, so as not to be easily ac
cessible to rovers from the sea; and it is not '
more than that distance from Syduey, the seat
of government, to the W. N. W. of which it is
situated. Above all, the country is occupied
by an exclusively British population, who, what- j
ever their momentary excitement, will, from
their natural instinct, soon settle down to order
ly and systematic industry. Supposing then
the gold fields of Bathurst to approach at all |
nearly to the richness of the golu fields of Call- |
fornia, we may safely conclude that they will
be twofold moro productive than the North ,
American treasure land, upon which a tnultitu |
diuous medley of not the best specimens of all
nations have lately alighted."

defence by an old comrade. That friend wishes
Ins memory not to be tarnished by the mmte of
"pirate," or "rabbet," or "freeiooUr," for he
was an honorable man. There can be no ques

as the happiest nation on the earth, and I never
can agree, nor will I ever consent, that such a
people shall be called, in whole or in part
"pirates, robbers," or any other outlandish
name, whether by the "law of nations," or by
our white-iivered editors ! These are my senti
