A SPECIAL from FTawley, Pennsylvania, states that the boiler of a locomotive, in the Erie Railroad engine house, ox ploded on Sunday, wrecking the build ing and doing considerable damage. Seven freight cars laden with valuable machinery were telescoped into one an other.

International Workingmen's So

A FRIGWTFDL ACCIDENT occurred on Sunday night, on the Belfountaine Railroad, five miles east of Indianapolis. A party consisting of

Well-Timed Rebukes.

Complaints are constantly sent to the Boston newspapers about ill manners in the concert room. A correspondent of the "Transcript" tells of an instance where a man made himself a nuisance to hm neighbors by humming the air upon so high a key as to destroy the pleasant effect of Mr. Santley'.s best singing. Sim lar disturbances were recently stopped in the Music rfall—in one case by a gentleman's writing the words, ''Are you aware how loud you are talking?" on a slip of paper and handing it to the offender. There was silence after that. In another instance a yonng woman by the same mode was asked, "Are you aware that you are tellir.g what should be family secrets, to those seated near you?" Her face was red, but her tongue was silent after reading the slip.

honored. The honor be affected in some degree by the method of obtaining the money. If it is a pirate's method or a highwayman's, if we know that throats have been cut and bludgeons used to obtain it, or if we see the thief actually rifling his neighbor a pockets, we •hall hardlv invite him to dinner, and that money "will not become respectable until the next generation. But if the process is more artfully concealed if the money is not labelled offensively, but is quietly converted into satin damask and Champagne if we do not read on the buhl and ormolu tables and cabinets an inscription stating thatthis beautiful work of art was taken out of the throat of a Spanish trader opened for that purpose, or upon the inlaid ebony lounge that it was extracted from the pocket of a ridiculous old widow who had nothing else—if nothing of this grcws kind appears, our well-bred curiosity is not impertinent, and we sit upon the sofa and quaff the wine without further thought.

It is in this way that honesty has ceased to command that respect to which it i« proverbially entitled. Indeed, to look at many a city congregation, recognizing many of the persons, and knowing their careers, and hearing the precepts of integrity and self-denial, of personal holiness, and even of martyrdom it' need be, which are equently urged upon them, inevitably suggests the allusion of Carlyle to the hypocrisy which is confounded when it is suspected of being hyp.critical. Men measure con duct by the real esteem in which it is held. If a foul mouthed, profane Therites, who flings his dinner plate upon the floor -at a public hotel to express his dissatisfaction with the banquet, evidently forfeits no social consideration, profanity and ill behavior Will not Reem to be things to be strenuously avoided. If sharper who gambles in stocks and cheats his neighbors airily is laughed at pleas* antlv as an eccentrically queer fellow, an immense impulse is given to the resolution to be eccentrically queer in the same way. If a politician with the conscience of a fox and the honor of sn addtr bellows his devotion to the dear people, and vo ciferously appeals to the moral centi ments, while his career insults them all, thought, first of all, a confounded smart fellow who may not be too nice upon some points, but who always falls upon his feet, such politicians will abound, and public affairs falling into their hands will inevitably suffer.

All these figures are well known to us in this country and when the eloquent preacher exclaims, "Beyond peradventure, brethren, honesty is the best policy," we all turn and look at the richest man in the congregation, whose invitations we do not dare to refuse, who leads us chained to his triumphal chariot as the Roman generals led Dacian kings, and whose money was ail stolen, not earned. And near him sits another whom we should not care to invite to our houses, hut for whom we vote, upon some theory that a political intriguer and briber will make good laws. And in the next pew behold the unjust judge, whose health we publicly drink in his own wine when he «ends it to ns at table. We see them, we mediate their careers, we consider their prosperity, and we gaze at the good preacher who repeats, "Once more, dear brethren, lay it to heart, honesty is the best policy." Might he not as profitably murmur "Mesopotamia?"

But when circumstances, as lately in New York, suddenly scatter the glamour of prosperity and reveal the naked dis honesty, then the old truth which is lodged in the very substancn of things appears, that honesty

consisted

of breaking the glass cases, covering a niche of the tomb, and substituting wreaths of garlic instead of immortelles. At the court martial the Chaplain stated that it was only a students' frolic, and did not deserve severe sentences but the clamors of the volunteers overruled everything else, and eight were condemned to death, eleven sentenced to six years in the chain g»n^, nineteen to four years in the same gang, four to six months imprisonment and two were liberated. The sentences were immediately executed, those mur dered not being allowed an hour's respite to see their friends. The. volunteers raided through the streets all day, shooting eight Cubans. Business was entirely suspended and quiet was only partially restored after the execution. The students were all quite young, mere boys, but met their death bravely in presence of an immense throngs. Their parents offered large sums of money to save them, the father of one offering one million dollars, but all efforts were vain. The Captain General,

and that, indeed, there is no other. The time comes when, as we seat ourselves in the dazzling drawinsr-room, upon the luxurious sofa, we suddenly see the inscription frightfully legible, "stolen from poor widows." And as we rise in trepi dation and move toward the buhl cabinet, the legend flashes out all over it, "Stolen from starving orphans And in a terrible light, outdazzling the dazzling drawing room, wc see blazing everywhere around us, "This is a thief's house, and these are his spoils" The moment that is seen the proverb is vindicated. The buhl re mains, but contempt stays with it. Dis honesty has bought its prosperity at too high a price. It has bought money at the cost of every thing that makes money valuable.

Death for Would be Freemen. Trarulated from La RexMucion dt Cuba.}

I attempt no easy task in endeavoring ber to' to post you on what is going on in this

unfortunate city, which may more prop erly be described as a den of wolves or an arena of wild beasts than a town of civilized people and to its present condition it has been brought by a gang of upstarts, who, to the dixgtist of the woild, rule it to day, devoid ot education or of princi pie, and whose only rule of conduct is a retrograde movement toward their antique and never varied traditions, such as were engendered in the caves of Covadonga, in the oak forests of Estramadura, or on the plains of the Guadalete.

Every sin of pi ogress which w&s visible here ihiee yeara ago has completely disappeared. All those literary circles in which intellect and morality were GO pleasantly fostered, are closed: for public instruction, even primary erudition and experience are no longer necessary qualities, they are replaced to day by protests of rank Spanishiscjs, and an inviolable oath to teach no other geography .than that of Spain, and to omit

ALL MKNTIOS EVEN OF AMERICA. The highest branches of education, that is, university education, are confined by certain limits, thereby forcing-those who aim at literary careers, to finish their studies in the peninsula, and there Castilianize themselves. The church has been placed in the hands of ignorant fanatics, in order that they may in the coniessional inculcate the duties of spies and inform ers. All reunions for innocent recreation have been replaced by the obscure crowds gathered round the inonle and roulette tables, which are both public and numerous, and for each of which a secret contra bution is paid, which is divided up between the policemen, the Celador, the Commissary of Police, the Chief of Police, and the Civil Governor. The administration of. justice is a nonentity, because neither reason nor right are valid in face of a bap tismal register signed in any littleSpanish hamlet. Aa to the administration of national finances, there is none it has become a table from which every employe seeks to snatch the few crumbs which his predecessors may have left. The Board of Public Works, created long ago by the prominent patricians of the Island, the men who gave impetus to the progress of their country by the introduction Of roads, of railroads, and fcy encouraging its agricultural development, has been ingulfed by the government manager of Public Works, whose sole occupation has been the formation of estimates of the cost of construction for fortresses and jails in fine, I question whether, if you woke up here, you would recognize your muchloved Havana, so completely has everything changed here.

A SPANISH PANDEMONIUM.

I am sure you would imagine you were in Centa or Meilla (two Spanish convict settlements for military criminals) from the Eight of all the uniforms and all the red cockades which one meets every where, on the boxes of the hired coaches, on the counter-jumpers in the stores, on the cart-men, on the doctors, on the lawyers, on the magistrates, and even on the priests. You would hear nothing but the constant- clank of chains and fetters, or curses, oaths and obscene phrases, uttered in Gallician or Catalonian jargon. You would observe that all comely and fash ionable toilets have made room for grace less blouses, and you would see the little musical and dancing parties of days gone by had been replaced by domiciliary searches, by arrests and by banishment. So completely ha3 the reign of terror been substituted for the proverbial joyful ness of cur former life, that friends, on separating, hardly dare say, "Until to morrow," because they know not whether they will ever meet again in this world. Never did Venice, Poland or Hungary suffer what we are suffering. Were we asked how we live, we might well reply, in the words of the rustic of the Pontine marshes, "we are not living, we are dying."

became we here all know that it is sent purposely to condemn the accused to some months' imprisonment, and to declare their properties.

FORFEIT TO THE CROWN.

A Frenchman, Luis LeRiverend, a resident of over forty years in this city, has been handed his passports, although he was a volunteer of the Foreign Legion. They say that he once sold medicine in his drug store to Aldama, and, of course, he must be a partisan of his. About the Swedish Consul you know already.

Some days ago the self appointed preservers of the integrity of Spain's posses sions, called here

los integros,

through the press for lint, on account of the enormous demaedforit from the hospitals of the Eastern and Central Departments, and nobody hastened to supply r, military commissions went from bouse to house and demanded it, threatening to treat all who refused to contribute—Spanish fashion.

It is a piteoii3 sight to peep in at some half-opened doorway, and watch poor women, whose brothers, sons, husbands or fathers have been murdered or exiled, tears in their eyes and bitterness in their hearts, but with the resignation of martyrs working away prayerful and hopeful

Martial law is in fact proclaimed. Not only have we here permanent and movable military commissions, and military patrols day and night, but neither in the offices, nor in the cafes, nor in the public places are more than three people allowed to talk together. The Louvre is deserted, and no wonder, for Havana is one vast cemetery.

Busy bodies,

Loui* Democrat.]

The_ ingenuity of the Louisville "Courier-Journal" comes feebly to the relief of the wrong side of the argument in the controversy of its own inauguration respecting the Ku-Klux. The "C J." started with a foolish comparison between a single case of outrage in Indiana and the lawlessness which has almost become the normal condition of the Southern States. It soon dropped the comparative and took to the defensive and now it sees fit to designate the theory asserted by the "Democrat," respecting the right of he government to interfere for the suppression of Southern disorders, as "the busy-body theory." Very well. There's not much in a name, after all, even if the gentle Juliet hadn't told us so. The busy-body theory (that of governmental nterference for the preservation of law and order) has been recognized in this nation for a long time. It was called into active operation ten years ago, when half a million of "busy bodies" were sent South for the same purpose that a few thousand are there now. It is recognized in every city and State in the Union. Here in St. Louis we have a few hundred "busy bodies"—they call them police— who occasionally interfere in the private and domestic relations of people disposed to violate the law and we presume they have some of the same sort in Louisville. The "busy body theory" of which the "Courier-Journal" complains is the only sufficient antidote for the element of "pure cusssedness" in human nature. We have no doubt it is very offensive to some, but tho*e who are disposed to peace, quiet and lawful behavior, do not generally despise it.
