Has this refer ence to the needle's eye or his own ? Washington correspondents all agree in their reports to their! different journals, that " The appearance in the case; of the "Cuba" of the ex-Confederate Attorney General has greatly prejudiced their case here."

The Star, " and another paper," in bursting out into an ebullition of )4 Cuban" patriotism, on account of the government seizing, and dispossessing the Cuba, only manifest their ignorance of the duties of an official. "A true soldier never disobeys," said General Scott. Our U. S. Marshal was ordered to execute an unpleasant duty.! He done it, but as we know, in extreme reluctance. Marshal Neff has been exceedingly un fortunate ot late in his several official actions ; and it should be the duty of the presi to lighteu these fretful and annoying the burdens instead of adding unceremoniously and unthougbtfolly to the bitter burden.

And still another worshipper at the shrine of Bacchus, named Matthew Burris, who for wonder was not a "Cuban," was reprimanded and released on payment of costs. Champagne. A portion of the small district of Champagne in France is the on ly part of the world that supplies the famous wine of that name. The product ot all its vineyards would not suffice to furnish more than is consumed in France alone. Whence then comes the thousands of tuns of "Cham pagne wine" drank in England, Germany, the United States, Canada, Australia, and all over the world i We can only answer for this couutry. Nearly all that goes under the name of "Champagne" is made in New Jersey, that can be bought as cider at a very small labels, it brings enormous sums per basket. We doubt not that an equally satisfactory explanation could be given of the millions ol bottles consumed in other countries. We wish however, that this "Cham-.; pagne" were only cider. It contains , otherj ingredients very hurtful to the system ; for every one knows that drinking this wine in any quantity always produces headache. This is the effect of poison that is put into the liquid in order to make it heady. Good Champagne never pftrauces any such results. , As the effect of "good champagne" is Plea9ant 80 advise our P00 to drink only that which is Known to be genuine. Such we have made here at home by L. A. Hart Esq., who deserves- honorable mention in bringing into use pure native wine. A IIbart-Rendino Affair. Novel Scene in Wilmington. The funeral of James Henry, who accidentally fell from the window of the "Seamen's Home" on Tues day evening at 9 o'clock, took place yester day from the above named hotel. The impressive obsequies ; the stout hearted sto ical sailors, bent and weeping under the saddening preseuc8of their comrade cold in death ; the brave and gallant officers gather ed around the coffin, the slowly solemn ritual, and the immense assemblage of spec tators gathered on the sidewaik, told a tale of sympathy, of reverence, and of mel ancholy, that words would fail to convey. But a few hours ago, and in the inevita- ble hilarious spirit of the uninaprisoned sail- , he walked the streets of our city per fectly unconscious of his coming doom. Yesterday, the smile of contentment, ot joy ousness and expected pleasure had banished from his brow like mist before the -mornlns sun. .; The cold, placid features seemed so sweet in their rigidness and lifelessness as if thev were of marble. Oh I what a reckless. unchained spirit is that of the sailor ? Gen erous, openhearted, independent and conse quently credulous, they are the constant prey for wily and designing men ; and often those who escape these Pariahs of society, generally die victims of their own tolly. Commodore Higgins, and Captain Ingra- ham have earned the confidence and re spect of the good people of Wilmington, by their noble efforts in behalf of the deceased. Weil, James Henry is gone, a stranger, but still his death must excite our pity and win ur sympathy; God has given, and God ! has taken away. Let us bow our heads in reverence to his holy will, and bless the sod that shall grow o'er the sailor's newly made grave.

Cuba an island, shaped just like a llzzard and is now in a great tumult. When you look bn the map it seems only a little vyg off, but it is many miles. If the Floridsjcontractpra would hurry up their coral fob, we might have a good drive across to Cuba, but they are so slow I don't believe Jt will be done for along time. Cuba tas been owned y Spain for ever so long, but she has got tired of it, and wants to get Jhe job fited; Cuba is noted for its sugar, and moTaWes," and cigars, and scorpi ons and handsome women. The last article is the best, for they are sweeter than suirar or molasses, more fragrant than cigars, smarter than scorpions, and as charming as only Cuban ladies can be except that we have got sweeter, more fragrant and smart er ladies here. Everybody likes Cuba. The United State? ha3 wanted Cuba ever so long but hasn't got it yet. Spain wants to keep Cuba, but I horc she can't do it. I want to see the Star Spangled Banner long may it wave saijing pver Cuba and the lib erties of her people forever assured by the best government the world ever saw. Some people thiuk that the .beautiful tcamer now in this harbor is all the Cuba there is, but it is a mistake. Oar Cuba is a pretty iron vessel that wants to go and help get the island free from the tyranical yoke of a cruel despotism. She has strong men, powerful gubs and handsome officers. I want her to go out on the high seas, and sweep the Spanish vessels from its broad bosom and force proud Spain to loose its iron heel from the beautiful Cuban neck ! But she can't go. Mister Grant- ain't he a big man ? says she must stay here in order to advertise our beautiful city. We sub mit, but don't like it. Poor Cuba. The end. Jack Plank. The Case of the Steamer " Cuba " How to get out oV a Knot Hole Ex-Confederate Attorney General Geo. Davis as TnE " Jim Crow " of the Bar. On Monday morning last, Mr. Geo. Davis, Ex-Confederate Attorney General and the present counsel for the officers Of the " Cuba," took occasion while reviewing the status of the above named vessel, to con demn in the most unwarranted and Un measured terms, " at certain powor.r r..t iu uuiiiMij ' ii uim puuiisueu. ui sre marks " on the opening of the case " on the 5 th of October. As the Post was the only journal in this city that did publish the full proceedings in the initiatory arraignment of the officers, and as this ex-rebel delighteth unspeakably in ariy opportunity to attack the only organ of the Republican party in this city, why we j "Draw the flattering Unction to 1 V lAk DVUlj and proceed to exhibit this corn-led to the admiring gaze of his benighted followers. In the first place, we unhesitatingly "dis claim any intention to injure the pending case of the gentlemanly officers ot the steamer " Cuba ;" 'twas their misfortune in an embarrassing moment, nay, one of im minent peril, to engage the services of this man; for this they have bur unchallenged pity aud deepest - egret. But to Davis. On consultation no doubt with Mr. Lowery, this man Davis became convinced that the cause of the "Cuba " in Washington was eminent ly jeopardized by the appearance of him self a3 senior counsel in the case. Now mark ! The Cuban officers were ar raigned on the allegation of the Collector on the 5th of October, our report of the proceedings together with the speeches therein appeared on the 7th of October; Mr. Davis has had from the 7th of October to the present time to correct any misappre hensions, misstatements, or inaccuracies. Why did he not I His silence is sufficient evidence against him. Secondly. Mr. G. P. Lowrey, of New York, on his return home, finds that our report Of the proceedings , being universally accepted as graphic and truthful, we presume, was prevailed upon by this "unrepentant" to de ny the words that he (Davis) uttered, but the reader will perceive how Mr. Lowrey did do it, from the following which we clip from the New 1 ork Timet : THE CASE OF THE HORNET, OR CUBA MB. DAVIS' REMARKS IN COURT AT WILMING TON. To the Editor of the flew York limes : I have seen in some of the New York daily papers allusions to a reported speech ot George Davis, Esq., of Wilmington, made in the proceedings relating to the steamship " Cuba " on Monday last, and from the char acter of these allusions I judee that the press has been imposed upon by a false re port. Having been ipretent in Court, lam able to say that t?i4 only question discussed was whether the hearing should be adjourned on theapplication of the Goternment. In respect to this, Mr. Davis said all that was proper or uselul to be said, but certainly nothing that was not in the best taste and Judgment. I hate not been, able to see the re port of his remarks, but I am sure that any report which attributes to him other lan guage than might be expected from an able lawyer and an accomplished gentleman is erroneous. I will take the liberty ot add ing that although some of the papers are with apparent seriousness, . discussing the question whether the "Cuba" will not be convicted of piracy, the speculation is some-, what oremature. for no such charge has been made against her. She is held tor an alleged breach of the neutrality act, and for r. TOPSSSS P. Lowbkv. No. 78 Broadway, N. Y., Oct. 14, 1860. Now we will leave it to any 1 of the peri sons assembled in the Court Room : on the first day of the investigation, whether , Mri Lowery was present or not. But, as th$ reader will perceive, Mr. Lowerey is amusl ingly confounded. He essays to speak on behalf of Mr. Davis, while in New York, i contravention of one who was present. have not been able to see the report of his remarks" says Mr. Lowery. Then what in the name of common sense is he talking about? For he was not there on the first day, and it is of the first day that the issue has arisen, and not of the Monday specified in Mr; Lowrey's letter to the Times. Oh f consistency, thou art'indeed a jewel. i Thirdly. Mr. Davis' absentmindedness is indeed remarkable, not to be overharsh Heaven has not granted him judgment! sufficient ia its government, to control hisl passions. Does the gentleman not know that out of sympathy to the cause of the Cuban officers, we refrained from printing the bitterest portions ot his address ? Does he not remember that when the counsel for the government used the word " rebel," that this great " unpunished" remarked that he! expressed a sympathy for the word, thereby! intimating that he still heartily espoused the cause of the South, and in a U. fi. Court Room audaciously confronted a U. S. Com-f missioner with his vile insinuation. And this from one ot the members of "Jeff.' Davis' Cabinet, who to-day only breathes! through the clemency and toleration of magnanimous government. Faugh ! Fourthly. That in order to bear addi- tional testimony to Mr. Davis1 remarks, wef have exhibited our copy of the address,! and have consulted those who have alreadyi carefully read the speech, and with one sin- gleexception, (and that gentleman's bump off firmness is by no means "magnificently greaf f or proverbiallv stronsr.") all have stated un4 m til -J - reservedly and unsolicited that the strong-! est and most prejudicial portions of the! address have been omitted, and if anything, it is an unadulterated and unexaggerated report of this " relic of the rebellious"! remarks. In justice to ourselves we are compelled. to meet the reflections of Mr. Davis, in! detriment momentarily to the cause of Cubanl independence. We sincerely regret it. In! the meantime " Georgie" is respectfully re quested by the assistant etl his ear; CFeorgiei" ignominiously and iogloriously failed. 44 If at first you don't succeed, Try, try again!" While in wrapped cogitation on the Providential retribution following un- thoughtful acts we commend his prosaic i spirit to the beautiful lines of the poet : 44 Oh, what a tangled web we weave, When first we essay to deceive." Life of TnE Period. We hear old peo ple lamenting over the degeneracy of the times, and are apt to take fortho captious- ness of ago what has too much truth in it. Our fathers tell us that they lived on bread and milk till they were half grown men ; and their appetites were never pampered by delicacies ; and that when seatedwhich was seldom in the presence of superiors it was not on stuffed chairs but hard 6tools without backs. Schools for artificial exer cise were then unknown : gymnasiums 'were the free woods, where the boys in undrilled sport gained muscular vigor without the fear of spoiling fine broadcloth nature their only teacher and robust health the law ot the privileged hours. Their limb3 were nofwound up in flannel for winter preservation their feet encased in rubbers, or their free movements crippled by overcoats. In the face of north-easters and snow storms the hardy fellows buffeted their way, sometimes for miles, to the gen eral school-house, with a cold sausage and brown crust for the noon-spell dinner. The consequence of all this was the warm blood had free course, imparting life and vigor to every limb; dyspepsia, debility and the like were seldom heard of, and the effects of the vigorous training are still visible in the stal wart old frames that are outliving in health and cheerfulness their "three score and ten." On the dinner table of an opulent mer chant which is usually supplied with at least two dishes of meat, there happened the other day to be but one, and that a substan tial round of beef. I observed marks ot dissatisfaction in some ot the children's faces, and the eldest daughter declined eat ing any thing, being indisposed, which the fond mother well enough understood. "Will you have a chicken broiled, my dear?" The dainty girl languidly acceded, and injustice to her I must say that she did iustice to the delicate dish that was soon smoking before her. No wonder the old maids and bachelors multiply. Young men, dependent upon their own exertions, can scarcely afford to marry the spoiled daughters of this extrava gant day. And such as have ample means, where are they to find wives in the so-called educated circles, that knowj anything more than to prate French, waltz like humming tops, and sing a few Italians airs, without the Italian soul of melody t Is a smattering of the popular branches that complete a young lady's boarding school course, educa tion!
