Negotiations with Cuba. special correspondent of the Dibune writes , torn Washington that important and highly in teresting intelligence froth Madrid and Paris has reached the Departnibntof State. In spite of all his (Harts and all his diplomatic sedtic flour, Mr. Soule has not succeeded either in resorting an "enlenic ccrdiale, ) ; with Spain or in doing anything toward the pulthase of Cu• ba, the Queen of the Antilles. The obstinacy which the Spanish Guirernment manifests in the settlement of the Cuban difficulty is to be attributed to two causes. FiriCTicey are confident of the support of France and England, in case of emergency. • S s econd. They do nut believe the United Statet i Government is in earnest. ./o‘lrealy h as Net been concluded between trance, Englund and Spain on this subject, but the preliminary steps for such a treaty were made some time ago, and only failed of con summation because England gave notice that she should insist upon the insertion of a Clause in regard to slavery in Cuba, "which was so obnoxious to the Spanish Government, that the negotiation was suspended.' Since then Spain has offered France ten thousand men to supply the place of the ten thousand French soldiers in Rome, to permit the latter to, join the army in Turkey, on condition that she will pledge her support against the United States in case of a war. Louis Napoleon refused the proposi tion, because alone he would not enter into a war with the United States. Besides a war between these two ancient allies would be as repugnant of the government and people of France as to those of the United States. The feeling of friendship for our nation is so strong in Fiance that it might become a question whether, if Loos Napoleon was disposed to push his people into a war with 'us, it would not cost him his throne. For a purely nation. el and palpable cause it is possible that the French people could be brought , into a state of mind hostile to the people of the United States but for a war in which they felt no direct interest, and into which they should be forced to accomplish a bargain, it may be safely pre , dieted they would not engage. However this may be, it is well known that the Spanish Government counts largely on theoid of France and hopes lie principally in the influence which the Empress is supposed to exert on the desti ny of the country.—Phil Sun. Scalping in the Revolution• A correspondent of the "Bucks County Intel ligencer," under date of July Ist, 1854 write as follows : " I have taken the liberty of sending you this for the next number of your valuable pa per.

DANIEL M. SbIYSER, Of Montgomery County. Military Visit. The '•Union Rifles" of Newark, New Jersey, Capt. Eigginson, accompanied by "Rubsan's Brass Band," visited our Borough on Wednes day last. They were received by the '•Lehigh Fericibles," The 11;fles left Newark on Wed nesday morning and were brought to Allen town from Mon in Omnibuses. The Four bles.ander the command of Capt. Ettinger, met them at the house of Air. John Schimpf, near the Lehigh Bridge, where some refreshments were provided and partaken of with considerable , relish. They were then escorted through the sweets of our Borough, and arrived at their headquarters, the 'Eagle Hotel," at about 6 o'clock, P. Al. At 8 o'clock P. AL, they were escorted to the Fencibles' armory. They were received with some appropriate-remarks from First Lieutenant Jams S. Rase, and invited to fall too and help themselves. Major Trawin, of Newark, replied to Mr. Reese, in a neat little speech, and then all hands• went Jo work de molishing the eatables and drinkables. Alter the collation other speeches were made by members of the bar, who had been invited to be present; toasts were given from all quarters and the evening passed off very pleasantly. On Thursday morning, the Fenciblea were out in full numbers and after giving the Rifles a-pleasant little march, both companies, were snugly stowed in . Omnibuses and Carriages, and driven to "Prospect Rock," about three miles from Allentown. A provision wagon fill. ed with the good things of life had been dent from Allentown, and after the Rifles had en• joyed the view from the Rock, they enjoyed the contents of the wagon, which had been set out in regular Pia Nic style, under- the super. vision of private !lanky. Both companies were then driveri to the head.quatters of the Rifles, the "Eagle Hotel," were a sumptuous dinner had been provided by the landlord, Mr. J. IV. Eslibach ; he having invited the Fencibles and some other citizens to dine with the Rifles on that day. After din ner the two Companies marched to " {Norman's Spring," where an excellent collation had been prepared by Mr. Charles Scholl. A great many of our citizens were present at the spring, which as everybody knows, is the place to keep sha dy and cool, on a warm day, and the Rifles seemed to enjoy it very much. In the Evening, the Rifles, in company with the Fencibles attended n : Civic and Military Ball, which had been got up eitires sly for them. This, was perhaps one of the finest balls which ever has been given in Allentown. The Ladies were present in full number, and though it was a very warm evening, yet every one seemed to enjoy the dance as if it were io mid. winter. The R;fies were invited during the evening to exhibit thejr Ball-room Drill, which they did and it gave, great satisfaction to all who were present. This drill in the manual of arms was performed without aoy command from the officer, except the "Tap of the Drum." The ball was kept up until about 4 o'clock, A. M.; it was very handsomely con. ducted and reflected credit on the committee. On Friday morning the Rifles prepared. to leave fur home, intending to remain a few hours in Bethlehem and Easton. Before leaving they executed their drill in the public square, which was universally admired. The Fencibles were again out in full number and escorted the Rifles lo the Public House of Major Charles Mertz, where he bad prepared a superb collation for the two companies and invited them to partake.— Here parting speeches were made, toasts given, every body cheered, and at 12 o'clock the Hales, bade farewell to Allentown and started homes wards, having created a very favorable impres. sion among our citizens. The Rifles are a well disciplined company, and while here, there deportment was soldieily and gentlemanly, and their visit will always be remembered with pleasure. The music of the Band was excellent, and was very generally dis. tributed. Rubsan's Band has perhaps no supe. riors and but few equals. The "Lehigh Fenci bles" deserve great credit for the attention they gave to the Rifles, being out all the time in fall numbers and presenting quite a Mita. ry appearance. Their behavior was irreproach. able, they have done honor to our Borbugh and our citizens will not soon forget them. The dif. ferebt collations were prepared in excellent style and every thing passed off to the entire satixlac. lion of the Citizens, and we hope to the satisfao atm of the "Union Rifles." . The Weather• The weather during the past week has been excesnively •warm. The thermometer ranging from 90 to 98 and upwards in the shade.- We heard of a number of persons who took sick ol the pressing heat.. Persons not in the practice of using ice water, should be cautious iu the use of it, as the water is more to be feared than the heat. Rohrbaoh at Home. The young man, who visited the Kleckner villa battalliop, some time ago, and ea his re turn home, left his horse and wagon stand by the road Bide, near the Borough of Catasau qua, has again made his appearance, and telt& en up his home with Mr. Jonas tiery, his for mer employer. He went to Doylestown, Bucks County, were he was engaged as ostler during the 'time of his absence. Independence pay- The day of our National Independence hai passed. From the Evening of the third to that of the Fourth, our town. was a complete blaze of fire, and4he amount of powder that was burnt during that time, in our stree t s, in pyro. technic preparations, exceeded anything of the kind we ever seen or aeard of. The "Feud hies" were out on parade and marched through the principle streets of the Borough. In the Evening the Scholars of the "Allentown Seminary" had a celebration in front of their large School buildifigs, after whioh the assem bine was requested to meet iu the rear in a beautiful open lot, and in a short time several thousand persona, old and young had congregat ed, to witness the display of fire works, about to take place, after which the crowd dispersed, satisfied with the pleasures of the evening. Accident. On Thursday last, during the time the Ten. eibles and Rifles" were assembled at "Wor. man's Spring," one of the members of the Feneibles, .named George flocksworth, in pet forming some "ground and lofty tumbling," accidentally tumbled down a precipice into a stone quarry, and seriously cut his head amogg the stone. lie was taken up in an insensible state. The wounds, however, having proved to be not so dangerous as at first supposed. • Another - .400ident. On Thursday last, our friend Rev. S. K. Brobst of this place, met with an accident that might have cost his life. He had left home with his wife in a light wagon, and on his return, while in the act of getting out of the vehicle, a little boy threw a fire cracker near the horse, which caused him to shy, and run away. Mr. Brobat who had got entangled in the lines, fell under the wagon and received several severe braises. The horst came running in full gallop to the Livery !Stable of Mr. Leh, to whom he be. longed, without having injured any thing. _ Sudden Deaths. On Tuesday last, a young man named Idiot Tilghman Rinker, of Salisburg township, Lehigh county, engaged as a boatman. on the Lehigh . Canal, took sick with a violent attack 'of cramp in the stomach, and before Medical as sistance could be obtained he died. Hu was in the 21st year of his age. Oa Thursday morning, Mr. James Tellit, a resident of this Borough, met with a similar at- tack. He took sick very suddenly during the night and died at about 5 o'clock in the morn ing. His age being about 72 years. Military Election. The Corn missioned officers of the first and second Brigades of the Seventh Volunteer Divi sion of Pennsylvania, composed of the coun ties of Lehigh and Northampton, met on Mon day the 3d of July, and elected Capt. David Lauri, of Lehigh county, as General of. said Brigade, for 5 years. The Counties of Bucks, Delaware and Mont gomery, which constitute the 2d Division, have elected • Col. Paul Applebach, of Pucks county. We congratulate both these gentlemen to the high stations they have respectively been se lected, and feel assured that the confidence re posed in them by their fellow soldiers will make them the more beloved and esteemed. Cholera We are pleased to see that our efficient Bur gess, Rolvirt E. Wright, Esq., has issued a pro. clamation in regard to the adription of sanative measures in oar Borough. The heat is intense, the earth very dry, with now and then a case of reported cholera, leads the authorities to see that every part of the Borough is thoroughly cleansed; the sprinkling of lime in gutters is re commended. Citizens cleanse your yards and cellars, prepare in time, before the dreadful epidemic) appears amongst you.. Gift Schemes at a Discount. We have frequently cautioned our readers against the Perham Gift Scheme, and other similar swindles; add in several instances we have sent back money which has been forward. ed us to buy gift tickets. One of the most ex tensive of these, called '•Professor Hart's Gifts," has just been broken up by the ern - ts of .I. W. Hart, who was committed to prison. The pre valence of these schemes for raising meoey on easy principles has become quite an astonish ing feature of the day. The 'Gift Eaterigises' are not confined to New York by any means, but extend. over the whole country and invei , gle a great many innocent people, who have no idea that they are doing what the Courts are beginning to tell them they do, oncourag •ing a regular system of fraud. The turnings of this last case among .us will be watched with interest. The arrest, of several distinct parties, concerned in enterprises of very simi• lar character, have followed each other close ly.

Great rivalry ,has existed for some years be , twuen the groat counties of Berke and Lancia. ter. Otte gives the largest Whig and the oth er the largest democratic majority in the Union both are German, and both are wealthy. Read iog boasts of her population—Lancaster of its business and wealth. Which is entitled to the palm, we shall not &wide. In one respect, so far, Reading is ahead of Lancaster. The May or of the former City has made out a list of one hundred and fitly topers, residents of that city, and notified She taverns, stores and beer shops, that complaint haeSteen made to hitn, and that they are not to sell or give liquor to them, on. der the penaltieeinesoribed by law. it is said that there are a few more left of the same sort I Can Lancaster beat that? In Allentown, we believe the number of persons who have re ceived the benefit of this Art, does not exceed a dozen. • Wheat Weeirll. Although the general appearalce of the wheat fields through the county, indicates a heavy crop, the-probability is, that not more than about three fourths of - an orttica'ry crop will be found to be hand when the grain is threshed out and tested by the bushel. do intelligent farmer informed us a few days since, that the destructive insect known as the "wheat weevil" was attacking it with great vigor, in many instances; every grain being destroyed. tale slated that an extensivefarmer blNorthamp ton county, informed him, while in Marker on Wednesday last, that "if any one would give him as much as the seed, they might lake his crop." 'The straw was very largo, and.loOked as if it might yield thirty to forty bushels per acre; but the weevil had entirely dastruyed it. Ilow Is It. The Know Nothings, are said to make rapid progress in old Berke, and to be Ghia' , recruit, ing their members from the Democratic ranks. The Reading Journal, in noticing the organiza tion of the Order in that city and county, says, "if half the reports wo hear on the street are true, the progressive branch of the Democratic party appears to be going over in a body, so as to make sure of putting old Hutikerism to a total route. Indeed, wittiin,a week or two we have heard it said of several prominent can didates for the county offices, that they had submitted their names to the 'Democratic par ty,' preferring to run their chance by paying court to the new organization." Adjournment of Congress.—lt will be grattify ing to the country to know that the two Hou ses of Congress have agreed to adjourn sine die on Ffiday,the 4th of August. The Senate had passed a resolution to adjourn on the 17th of July until the 16th of August, and the House had indicated ita wish to adjourn on the 14th of August. The time now fixed was the result of a compromise, through the medium of a committee of conference. This point having been determined, Congress might as well go to work, for Nebraska alone will not make up a sufficient return to.report to their conatitutents.

Divorce Extraordinary.—.l woman applied to one of our attorneys not lung since to take steps towards procuring a divorce on account of hab itual drunkenness and ill.treatinent in her liege lord. The attorney, who is a strong temperance man, was much impressed with the story of her wrongs, and engaged to commence necessary proceedings at once. A few days ago, the fair plaintiff called again to consult about the case, and at the close of the interview inquired how long it would be before the matter was final' ly consumated. The attorney replied that he sincerely comthisserated hersituation, and would do all he could to relieve her from it in the short. est possible tintiP' He thought he would be able to do so against the first of September : at farthest.

Another Cure fur the Cholera.—The following extract from the letter of u clergyman. to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, presents a very sim ple, and, he says, effectual preventative of chol. era, as well as a remedy of great power : uThe preventative is a simple tea.spoonful of powdered charcoal taken three or four times a week in a cup of coffee or other liquid, in the morning. "When attacked With cholera, a mixture of an ounce o f charcoal, an ounce of laudanum, and an ounce of brandy, or other spirits, may be given as follosts—after being well shaken; a teaspooni ful every five minutes.
