@ @udden change ai! over the country. ‘Phi bad weather bas not only caused much sieknees all ever the country, and principally in Paris, but it Bad also been the cause of inconveniencing and de- atving the French people of many of their amuse- ments. Among those vho Were disappointed, | may mame the gunners, and the amateurs of other sports, ‘whe bad no good chance on Friday last, which was Mbeeppointed day for the opening of the chase Im despite of very windy weather, half the fsahion- able citizens of Paris went into the fields on that eelebrated and long expected day. Many persons, whe were in the country, returned to the city a few @eye before, from their residences, in order to pur- @base ammunition necessary for that glorious anai- vewary. The gunsmiths, and shot and powder wellert, were az buy as possible, and, in short, the preparations were a8 various and as well miamaged 2s possible. The game was abua @ant; the partridges, the hares, quails and phea- mante, bad grown as numerous as the sand ef the wea. Unfortunately, on Thursday last, the wind ‘Bowed so strongly, and the cold was so disagreca, wle, that on the next morning it was really impos- mMble to meet a bird. It is well known that during @ebilly day the animals and birds are more wild, | and thie unfortunate cause ereated much disappoint mont and trouble among the large company of gun mers. Ehave seen about a dozen of my “brothers,” de the veble art of the chase, who have returned from the eld? mueh dissappointed with their baad duck. No doabt they will have their revenge on ancther evoasion; but for the present they are at Bberty tocomplain, and they use it freely. Despite the cold weather we have had two fete the neighborhood of Paris, which are worthy of being mentioned. They both took plase on San- doy last, at Versailles, and the other at St. Cloud ‘These two royal palaces were opened to the pablic, for the Isst time of the season, and the railway amempany organized their trains in such a way as | te allow every ore to witness the two grand dis softhe waterworks, whick had been anncuace:? that day—tbat of Versailles from two till four @elock, and that of St. Cloud from five till seven welock. At Versailles the waters were magnificent, nd the crowd immense. At Ss.

All this is borrowed from the eowpous programme of Mr. Rion; but as far as it ees, Tam told by some friends who have some wiedge of that alfair, that there is a great deal ef humbug in it. We shall see if Mr. Rion bas pro- mized his subscribers “more breqd than butter.” Asfer the “national fetes” of Messrs.

Whilet we arc thus inthe expectation of so much asare, the manufacturer of cloths of the city of uf, where the trade of the woollen goods has mort extended, was destroyed.

With all civilized governments, the execution of a body of prisoners, except whon taken in the perpetration of revolting atrocities, is accounted utterly indefensible. Even for of intimidation, it is, at best, but a doubtful expe- dient; and if the enemy be «till uneubdued, it is far mote likely to provoke reprisals than to deter from future sggreesion. Therefore, although we admit | the right of punishment, we must condemn the un- | Serupulous and reckless exercise of it; and, how- ever unprovoked and piratical my hare been the American incursion, we must doplor> the savage principle of vengeance applied by tho Spanish func Vonares in Cuba. But, after al), if the matter be examined ar a question of ri, and with regard to the evontuali- ties that may hereafter arise, the unprovoked at- tack upon the Spanish colonies amounts simply to ee enterprize, whieh has, in the first inetance, failed of success. After the proclamati sme | that wore issued by the President, the government of the United States has no right to complain of the treatment of the inveders. They voluutarily d themscives out of the pale of international in the common phrase, they fought with ound their necks.

[From the London News, Sept 11.) The Der eing Fat appears to have epoken the opinion of our foreign office, upon the Cuban difli- culty. The Times, according to its wont, has alopt- ed the views and abettod the desires of that forcign embassy which affords it exclusive information. ost agrees with what we ourselves asserted, that the Spanish authorities and forces in are quite equal to put down any attempt made by volunteer bands ani ajo eympathsers, and that the only real danger to Cuba lies in the central go- vornment being compelled to take partin tho strug- gle, and make it a national war. The Post, how- ever, uits the central government of any collu- sion. It lays the blame on the local government of Louisiana, which favored the expedition at the time when all the ministers wore scattered in vaca- tion and recreation, none at Washington, and the poses of the central government thus in abeyance or the moment. It points out the difference be- tween the cases of Cuba and Texas, there being nothing but a land frontier to cross to got at the latter, and therefore it being out of the power of the American government to prevent aggression and invasion. From all these circumstances, the official Post draws the conclusion that there is no need of England’s interfering for the present, the question of its doing so or not being one for future consideration, not present decision. The Zimes is notsatisied with the dilatory mode of Sioying the struggie. According to it, the “ap arent indifference ef the British authorities cm- dens” the adventurers. The fimes asserts, that England is a3 much threatened as Spain, because if the Southero States annex Cuba, the Nor-hera States can only restore the balance by annoxing Canada, and moreovor, that Jamaic2 must become Yankee land, if Cubadoes. 1: is therefore recom- mane, et England and France Reng the cabi- net at Washington forthwith to book, for pormiv- ting, or yore these aggressions, and extort a romize for the future that will sot all anxietios for Juba at rest. We must own wo prefer the policy of our waitia; and doing nothing. The present cabinet, supporte: by the whigs, will do its utmost to prevent the con- quest of Cuba. If it do this ofits own free, Ameri- can will, it may gather strength and respoct to its party in tho coming Presidential election. Bat let it be known that there is an Anglo French note me nacing hostilities, and covering Cuba with a Luro- pean gis, and immediately the whigs aud peace party lose power and prestige. A yy ery is taized against foreign dictation and interference, and we shall have precipitated that which we must seck to avoid. Any threats of ours will but embarrass the cen- tral government, without in the least restraining or intimidating the local authorities in the Southern States. If our threats or declamation were to be followed up uy the stationing of a combined fleet to protect the Havana ard Cuba permanently, tho paket y would no doubt divert their efforts rom expeditions to an anti-Huropoaa movexent and war, of which Canada would inevitably be the first aim and field. But threats without these pre- cautions or this assistance, would have no effoct whatever on the buccancers of New Orleans or Charleston. Success in an expedition would be all in all to them; and whether their success gave rise to a war with [ngland, that would be a matter of indifference, or perhaps, indoed, of iy atthe war. in this should they have succeeded, Iingland would be bound to gratify them, or else humbio itself by sneaking out of a war which it had idly and gratu- itously threatened. It is not by threatening the Americans that we can best save the independence of Cuba, but by in- ducing the Spaniards to treat Cuba as it is indis pensable for European peers to treat colonies in these advanced days. At present ali the aids and elements of civilization and prosperity come to Cuba from America. The Americans have mado their railroads, improved their sugar cultivation, and not only set the ae A but breathed the ideas of eelf-government. We support Spain inthe mainterance of her mi abeolutism, and the exclusion of natives and oreoles from every trust, every freedom, overyemolument. ‘I'he lil 's of Cuba look no longer to us, but to America. Per- haps the creoles are too far gone in hatred to Spain ever to be recalled to loyalty towards it. Still Spain has it in her power to call to her aid tho negro population.
