HOW TO GET CUBA.
From the Gincimiati Daily Enquirer.
•ve.tjlin th'e.TdHowiog dnetrbifs nniele, lor

|’o TIIE EdITOK OF THE Ek«UII0B1F.—“
"u3’ejr turs dte-atf the Cleveland Plain
t>eal«fhaa a n1 eruole iyuomu^eiyliug to
‘swap New England off lor Cuba. ” VVr
; the West, fciiys the Plain Dealer,-nfc
uffiefently Yanfceeized to get along with
out .any iuPiliej iielp Irom that
■‘Xand of brialyt muons white beans,
Of short'but swot: kind o'f grass,
Of maids who, ere thyy reach their teens,
Can make the best of pumpkin-sass.”
'file Sooth hast had enough ul her—Luo
much in the shape of Abolition lectures,
’tnti-«Iavery agitators running off niggers,
disturbing her peace and spoiling her
temper. She is ripe for a trade, end in
asmuch as Now England his t,wiee tried
to get out of,the Union—once by Han
ford Convention, and latterly by resolu
tions—“.Let her slide,” wfe" tay. Old
Sptfin needs her. She is in the last stage
of chronic consumption, and a little New
■England yeast would make her rise, and
peFhaps leaven the whole lump. This is
the best disposition tlmt can be, made of
Tankeeuoodledom.
This is a subject well worthy oT con
sideration. We should thus get rid of a
portion of our country whos? early history
is the greatest lilot on our national record;
t people who, professing Id be friends of
reedom, and who annually hold public
ioilees,to declare that ftii’tfie civil, reli
gious and political liberties ever knSnyn in
.« Unioti, tins imported in the Mny
jiovver, and that when the infant' Inde
oendehce put his foot upon Plymouth
Hock, he grew an inch an hour, until he
now stands with one foot upon the sunken
tea. chests in Boston Bay, and the other
'knee-deep m the snows pT the Sierra. It
is true, that the pious Pilgrims, whom it
T3tjut yearly dufy to worship, and perpet
ually . praise, ns the< .fathers of freedom,
were guilty, of stealing the land that they
settled on from a race of rid men, but
that race were nothing but Indians, noth
ing like such V people as the Alabama
negroes upon whom the decendems of the
Puritans now dchght, to pour forth buckets
and barrels of sympathy. Boston is a
place that boils over yviyi patriotism.—
W.hile they; refused to let Daniel Webster
‘speak In Fftnuelf Halt,' they' grtfaiously
gave it up to afree-negro convention.
• WlnlrBastOn is fherbost moral city in
the Union, her lecturers not only have a
systematic, regular abuse of the Bible,
but b few years since they showed their
devotion to liberty, by burning the Word
of God. They, were famous , for ti.ipir
Might, front flUrope in the catisp. of eViF
and religr3us ff^eddni, while 'the first
thing,they did,'almost, after they gift here,
waa tobitra pkoti, tyomeu and child re tv as
wizards aud witdies^ari^ , ha,ng Qtutkers
for theia pebulier neligittus belief, while
iney persecuted, by fire and imprisonment,
such as did-not strictly conform to their iso*
'trilled Christian eode, which was as cruel
and compulsory as-1ignorance and bigotry
-could couarue.it, o priucij al business
of tli,e,atil;gi«n frpiutd Boston. of recent
years, has been to export to tbo west a
surplus portion of hot junior inhabitants,
who, being averse to clearing land, cut
ting cord-wood, following plows, or any
branch of honest industry, devoted their
elegant and distinguished leisure to teach
ing juvenile backwoods boys and girls
how to mispronounce the English lan
guage, until the little “individoolas” speak
as it they had lived on “etooed” pump
kins all their lives; and for this “doolyV
the west owes "Noo’' England a debt iff
"gratitoode,” which can never be paid
while a Boston "noosepeper” “continoosf’
to be published.
Two things grow about Boston like jini
eon weeds about the Commons around
Covington: one is liberality, and the
other is modesty. A Bostonian is a syno
nym for generosity, and a close, screwing,
bargain-driving character is unknown in
Yankee luutl ; their liberal, open-hearted
impulses, are chiefly confined, however,
when upon a large scale, in attending to
the negroes of the South, or patronizing
in the most condescending niauuer any
thing that happens to originate in, the
west. But their system of lauding every
thing in the sacred circle of Boston, is
wonliy of the ingenious wit of the per
son mentioned by Rabelais who used an
instrument denominated a sell-tickler.—
The complacency with which this mutual
admiration society survey each other, and
sit for the portraits of mode! philosophers,
poets, politicians, sav in*, and statesmen,
is diarming. There is nothing too pro
found for their comprehensibly or too re
fined for their taste.; they are oracles
upon music, the drama, jxietry, books,
pannings and sculpture.
Yes, we think with the Plain Dealer,
that we could afford "too swap off” the
and of the Blue Laws for the gem of the
Antilles, and we could afford to throw in
all the wooden nutmegs,canvassed hicko
ry hams, Abolition lecturers, Bibfe-burn
ers, Union-sliders, infidel preachers and
strong-minded women, Miles Standish’s
dinner-pot, a fragment of the Mayflower,
a large amount of the poetry, and pretty
nearly all the politics of New England,
and they have much the best bargain
against Spain, but it would be a cruel cut
to serve old Castile such a trick as turn
mg forth the wise men of Boston upon
uer. A baualliou of Don Quixotes stark
mad themselves, would run the Peninsu
ar wild. Such a foray or crusade iron
Massachusetts would be worse than tht
re-esiablslnnent of the inquision of Mad
rid, but that's Spain's look-out. We gi
U for the swap.
A WESTERN MAN
Typographical Reir.inisreieo--A Game
of Poker, and What Came of It.
Tile Albany (N. Y.) Statesman, in tv;
leading article, lolls the following story: ^
“Twenty-three years ago we 'stuck
typo' in the same alley in the printing
office cf the JV'c;" Yorker, edited and puli
| lnh d by Horace Greeley, George Wil
j kins Kendall, (the projector of the New !
jUrleaps Picayune,) Morgan Kates, (we.
think since a pa tin or in the publication of
| the Detroit .TdtieHiscri) O. A. Bo we,
i (who was n ft Move apprentice with Gree
! ley, and ulierwiuds published a paper at
Little Falls,) Stood at the Wen in the
same office. Bowe, Bates and Paige are
now dead. Kendall is etill living, but
has abandoned the chair editorial for
.sheep-ralfdrrg on the pluin^'if Texas.
He left the Yorker office to commence
the Picayune, having acquired the capital;
{for that enterprise in a way that would i
[hardly he considered orthodox in a moral
community. Before leaving New York,
Kendall had ‘ tramped ’ the South as a
jour printer—traveled for information, as
he said, through every principal village
and city in the Southern States, some
times on steamboats, sometimes in stage
coaches, (there was but one railroad in
the South, tliCn, front Charleston to Au
gusta,) and not unfrequently on foot,
with his baggage on ltis back, [>endant in
a handkerchief, from his walking-stick.
Sometimes lie was ‘ dusit,’ and well dress
ed—sometime* ‘ strapped ’ Hnd seedy—
but always witty, genial and gentlemanly.
In his adventures lie had frequently been
boon Companion with many of the most
eminent- men in the country.
" The Astor House then was just open
ed, and extensively visited by Southern
ers. It was a fashion with Kendall to
patronize that establishment after working
hours. Strolling over there one evening,
after having 1 washed up,’ he was agreea
bly surprised to meet several gentlemen
whom He naa Known 83 rnercnnrus, law
yers.and doctors, at Natchez, Mississippi.
After Juleps all round «,pd a sherry cob
bler apiece, some One proposed to ‘close
the night ’ with a. liuje game .of poker.
Kendall had but abopt five dollars in his
watch fob (there was no watch there), but
he assented runo% the rest, to the propo
sition. Excusing hmnsejf-for a moment,'
he made n rush dxiwn Ann street to the
office, where he hoped;to find some of1 bis.
fellutv printers with iiioney to lend. Bates,
as foreman of the office, had beenjdetain
ed making up the forms. He had eight
dollars, and ‘rye’ (we were helping
Bate.?) had two. hundred an .1 seven cents,
Kendall took the ’dollars, (leaving us the
cents), and thus‘made a sparse of !rlo.
With ibis fund he sat down to play. The
pUy went on until daylight, At 7 o’clock,
Kendall came iiUa the •office, paid up ike
'$10 Ke had" borrowed, told Greeley he
would give up his situation, and asked ail
hinds to partake of a ‘ pibus gorge’ that
afternoon ‘All hands ’ were but too
happy to do that same, and still more hap
py when their follow craftsmen announced
that, life, was the fortunate possessor of
about $700, won at the ‘ little game of po
ker’ aforesaid, and that with the $700 he
proposed to ‘ start a paper in New Or
leans.' In due time the Picayune ap
peared—was a success—wiuning reputa
tion for Kendall as a .polished writer and
a brilliant wit, arid what was better, giv
ing him a princely income.1 He has had
many a hair-breadth ’escape since that;
was among the Santa Fe prisoners, and
given up as dead, but afterwards released;
lie went through the Mexican War ; has
passed years in foreign travel, until
satiated with enjoyment,.and tired of the
excitement of city life, Ire retired to Tex
as, and is now master of thousands of
acres of land, and reckons, more than a
hundred thousand sheep, cattle and mules,
