Miss Alice Cary, the poetess, replied to a toast as follows :] Yon know, my friends, through whose good graces We nat et aro and this board to-day; It has been said that mau embraces Woman; hut, with your leave, I say, This rather holds in special cases Than in a general way.

These are im? ported in various resigns expressly for this purpose, Pompadour patterns on black or white ground and ^ old or silver on colors arc tho choice. Four yards are required to train the hail-, for tho ribbon passes once over the forehead, and again over tho head, bc sido twico round tho cbiguon, and falls in long loops from tho latter. VEILS. The mask veil is still thc shape preferred; silk ones, with a wreath of flowers embroidered in natural colors, arc among-" tho spring im? portations ; but I cannot think_thcm in fine taste. In millinery materials tho granito lulle is a novelty ; it is" sprinkled with clots of em? broidery precisely liko the frosted matines of last season. It* is seen in all colors, and is moro durable than thc malines. The pluie di? amant ie a tulle shot in tho lines ot crystal dots like tine rain. Striped tulle and era De will bc U3ed for dress bonnets. Netted veils to draw over bats, 6crceuing the head all round, and netted scarfs to throw over fanchons, bv way of garniture, are seen in silk, but the pret? tiest novelty ts netted lace, and scarf" ot" fine, firm cotton, that look exactly like the finest Legnorn cord. THE ENGLISH COTTON TRADE. Distress of Employers and Workmcn A Strike Imminent. .(From the Liverpool Post, March 9.] Tho future of tho cotton trade in Preston grows moro gloomy every day. Partial stop paces and total cessations from work continue to increase; in fact, the losses upon some des? criptions of manufactures aro so great as to render any other course impossible, if utter ruin is to be averted. Some firms cling to the hope that a redaction of ten or twenty per cent, in wages may cure tho evil of which all complain; but in "many cases a much larger reduction-some say filly per cent, even would still leave the business unprofitaole. Last week it was agreed that notice should be given of a general reduction of ten per cent., but even with this very many firms contemplate stopping their machinery alto? gether. In the case of Mr. George Smith's mill, Moor Brook, where a reduction of fifteen per cent, has been adopted, the union has made a determined effort to baffle the attempt; but, notwithstanding that effort, Mr. Smith has three hundred looms at work and most of his spindles; and it is believed that the resistance tbat will be offered to the general reduction of ton per cent, will be equally futile, lt is not correct that Mr. Smith's mill has been closed, and Mr. K. G. Treh'all denies that he has offer? ed to run fall time it thc operatives will accept a reduction ol' ten per cent. Indeed, trade is so bad that there is no alternative but to re? duce both wages and production, and even then it will be long before Lancashire is again JJ prosperous. The spinaers and Min dots' Association have as yet received no intimation of the action of the masters. They say that some time since, it was arranged by deputation that, before anything further was done with reference to wages-as the operatives are even now working at a reduction ol' five per cent, below the standard list, and boen doing so since January, 1867-deputations from the twob idles should together consider tho course to be taken, and that under any circumstances, Preston should be governed by the East Lan cinhire list ot prices. Thfy, therefore, now complain bitterly that the masters have come to the resolution above stated withoat giving them tho promised interview. A meeting of tho coumitto . of tho Cotton Spiunors' Association is to be held this (Tuesday) evening ut Prut ton, when the strike at Mr. Smith's mill, the coutemplated reduction of ten per cent, in all branches of tho trade, and the injunction ol Mr. Sellers that his spinners must withdraw from tbo onion or leave his employ, oven at the reduction often per cent., arc all to be con? sidered. Tho whole of theso matters are then to be referred t J the council of tho ? malgama ted Trades, with a ?equisition that they will c ill a public meeting for their discussion. lu consequence Oi tho strike at Mr. S.mth's mill.

Sad State of Affairs-Refugees-Ferocity of the Spanish Troops-Thc Shooting of Captain JLopcz. Tho letters received from Cuba give a sad picture of the unhappy state of affairs in that island. Many ontrages are committed by the Spanish troops and volunteers. Arrests aro very numerous, and a widespread alarm pre? vails among the people, hundreds of whom are fleeing from tho island td places of safety, many of them seeking refuge m tho United States. A letter from an American in Cardenas says : Tho revolution is progressing, notwithstand? ing all the efforts of the 8pauiards to stop it. Hie treasury is bankrupt, and appeals are made in the papers for subscriptions to sup? port the volunteers in the field, bit I think all ?viii be in vain. lu a few months moro tho yel? low fever aud cholera will find abundant food in the ranks ol tho unacchmatcd Peninsulars that are coming or are already herc. They oro ifraid here that the insurgents will make a raid upon them aud destroy the crops, though they try to put a bold face upon the mattel, buudrecls aie being arrested all the time The Moro Castle is said to ba full of prisoners. A letter written from Manzanillo by a native Cuban says: ?ff.1 irs hero aro growing worse uni worse every uay. The insurgents are raoidly t icreat iug in number and extending themselves all over the island. They have) taken away the staves from all lie estates in this neighbor? hood, and hr.ve aro.ed all tho able-bodied ne? groes. The Captaiu-Ueneral granted a geno ral amnesty lor u ll the insurgents who *ouId lay down their arms, but they uavo not taken tue least notice of lt On the contrary, their hatred towarj the Spanish Government -coins to incrcaso daily, ami they all appear dotermin od to throw off the Spanish yoko. Tho City of i.u_\tuna, which Wis tho focus of the insur? rection was completely do tioyod on tho ap? proach ot tho Spanish troops and now thou? sands of ?ani lles aro wandering about the countrv homeless, and to tho most deplorable ?t ito imaginable. The govermnen torees aro ar* iug shockingly, stealing and assassinating in every uircctio i. Hera wo seo uothiiitr but soldiers sud Spanish volunteers, for all tho Coban young men have joined the insur? gents, The following is an extract of a letter dated Cienfuegos, Cuba, March 10, written by a highly intelligent Cuban lady to a friend in Philadelphia: A deep gloom hangs over our beloved is? land. Cur br thors men of heart and intel? lect, are da.b arri st ed and imprisoned ur ex? iled, and t ie few wlio remain at liberty have no aiterua ive but to flee the coiiutiy ur join tho insurrectionists in the interior. You can form no idea ol wUat wo Miffoi ; and. if il were possi? ble we -ould shut ourselves u> retus-ng to see our friends, for tho theme of c inversai iou is nothing but war and its incidents, eogia t ng to our leeliug". We are watched and sur? rounded by spies; tor, as you know, tho largest prop rtion ol the population of th e town -rc natives ol Spaiu. and the? openly pnHairu that Hay ?ill nor bo s ti-fled un il eungriiiou or extei mil.ation has swept a 1 tho natives in m the is and and left them sole possessors ot our idolized Cuoa. No inhumation has reached us as to what suecos tho Spauish troops have hud who a te . days mo Went lu pursuit ot thc insurgents. It is stated here that Adoluli Cavjda, elliot ot ibo pu nul forces in this district und niau Felix li uyon. h.ivo ca? ured a large i-umbur ot Spaniards, -od.ors and Civilians, aud iu -toad O. puitiug them to death, as tho S?u.iiards do well tho pnsoui ia tboy cap ur?, na o n.var. ab y treated them with ibo irreaest huma iity.

As ha waa entirely aurxouudod by troops, aud it Waa i npossible f r bim (o escape, this was wanton cruelty. The object of tiiie cruelty was to forco him" to denounce some persons as being implicated in tho insurrection; but this he refused to do, and with his last breath de? nied having had anything to do with tho insur? rection himself, which is doubtless true, and bis judges knew it. Dut bo was saciiliced to tho clamors of tho Spanish mob. At 4 P. M. this unfortunate man, with a timi voice and serene countenance, asked those present to forgive him if in any way he had ever given them offence, knelt as bc was ordered, hi J eyes were bandaged, and ho was shot in thc back, receiving t-is wounds. While in thc agonies of death, the sanguinary mob of Spaniards, who carno to gloat over* his execution, heaped curses on him, some threatening to drag him through thc strcots, and otners proposing tn rub bim with coal oil and set bim on tire. Im? mediately after, the military band, heading the troops, marched around his body, playing lively airs and dances. What fiends ! As yet the insurrectionists have put no one to death. But can they forgive the assassina? tion of Captain Lopez and others equally in? nocent ? May they not think reprisals neces s try ? It is feared they will. If they do, much blood will flow, and God only knows what awaits us. You may nell imagine that -nil these terrible occurrences fill the hearts of Cubans with hatred for lus Spaniards, but wo aro obliged to bear all in silence. The Spaniaras, no doubt, some day will have to answer for tho numerous assassinations committed by them on this island, for by no other name can the execution of political prisoners be called. For my part, I call down upon their heads the vengeance of a just God, -A movement is on foot for thc formation of a newpolitical organization in New Hampshire, to include as many as possible of thc Conser? vative members of the two existing parties. The matter is now in the bands ol twenty pro? minent men, ten of them being Republicans and ten Democr its. Private raeotiugs of those having the thing in charge have been held, but nothing can be obtained as to tho pros? pects of the movement. It is said that the whole scheme will be made public in June next. ' ! C?tnmcrci?L ? EXPOllS.
