lVliy Does the President Permit a New Monarchy to be Established in Cuba I If, during our late war, the Confederate armies had captured Washington, say* the Ney York Sun, upset
our
Federal
Government, and permanently imposec their rule upon the Northern could California and the other Pacific States, supposing them to have held aloof entirely from the contest, ha\ been icquired by any known law to suomit to the Confederacy
Cuba, before the Spanish revolution of 1868, was a
colony
of Spain, and owed al
legiance to the reigning dynasty of that country. A band of adventurers, composed of Serrano, Prim, Fopete, and others, overthrew that dynasty, the only one which Cuba acknowledged as its ruler, and drove Isabella from the throne. The legitimate monarchical dominion over Cuba having thus closed, upon what ground can she be required to submit to that which the revolutionists now in temporary possession of power at Madrid are trying to establish
We presume that no one would deny that any attempted roconquest of Mexico or any of the Central American republics to-day by Spain, would be an open violation of the Monroe doctrine and the present attempt to establish monarcliial institutions anew in Cuba, either with or against the wishes of the Cubans, is no less so.
Spain will accept no government but a monarchy. Twenty months ago the last Spanish monarchy ceased to exist. In allowing anew Spanish monarchy or any other European monarchy to be forced upon any State on this continent, does not President Grant violate the long settled policy of the United States? And is not every member of either House of Congress who passively acquiesces in such a policy an open violator of the Monroe doctrine?
THE INDIAN RECEPTION, at the White House, the other day, was a very unique affair. The elite of Europe and the bon ton of barbarism met, clasped hands, ate. and drank together in the home of the Great Father. The Cabinet Ministeis and their families, the diplomatic corps en masse, and a few Senators and Representatives
Avith
their wives and daugh
ters, met the Ogalallalis and Brules and the squaws belonging to the delegation. The reception took place in the East Room which was brilliantly lighted. All the ladies were in full evening dress, and gentlemen the same. The Indians wore blankets, buffalo robes, feathers, and medals beyond belief. After shaking hands with the Great Father and the Great Mother, as they call Mrs. Grant, the delegation proceeded to shake hands and grunt "How" at the assembled guests, and to stare in unmitigated though stolid wonder at the latest productions of the highest civilization of Europe—the blonde Parisian beauty and the elegantly gotten up Parisian dandy. After this ceremonial, the savages arranged themselves along the wall, on handy, and were the recipients of the stares of the promenaders, who paused from time to time to contemplate them. About 8:30 supper was announced, and the President led the way to the grand state dining-room, followed by the assembled guests, the Indians taking precedence. The table was covered with flowers and all the decorations customary on grand occasions. Strawberries, cherries, oranges, bananas, ices, cakes of all kinds, French candies and wines appeared on the bountifully spread board. The lions of the evening were given places next the table, and were waited upon by other lions, foreign and domestic. They managed the gold .spoons with great dexterity, and Red Cloud sarcastically observed that he found the white people ate many things which they did not send to the Indians, and they did not seem to live entirely on corn meal. The wine of the Great Father went not untasted and was appreciated to the full, as was evinced by the falling asleep ot some of the Indian imbibers. After the return to the East Room the squaws seemed particularly pleased with the snapping kisses, and pulled them with the foreign ministers with charming naivette. All they could not eat they carried off in their blankets. When the interpreter thought things had gone far enough he gave the signal to retire, and with a succession of grunts, the party withdrew to the East Room, and resumed their former positions. Then they were instantly surrounded by the fair ladies, and each was presented with a boquet, and a more paradoxical sight can scarcely be imagined than presented by the exotics of the White House conservatories in the hands of the painted warriors of the forest. Mrs. Thornton, of the British legation, won golden opinions for herself by giving the tassels from her fan and the pearl beads from her sash to the squaws. About 9 o'clock the pow-wow broke up, and the children were carried from their Father's house in a large omnibus, leaving the impression that they had behaved themselves, under the extraordinary circumstances, with singular circumspection.
The Marion, Grant county, Chronicle relates the following singular casualty: On Friday of last week, Mr. M. Bradford, who resides near this place, was going to afield on his farm to shear sheep, and accidentally knocked a bit of skin from one of his hands. It was in a place that brought the wound on the sheep during his day's work, producing a kind of poison, turning the hand black, and two days after had extended up the arm to the shoulder and breast, making him seriously ill. By Monday, however, the attack commenced to yield to remedies applied, and he has since slowly recovered.
The Indianapolis Times says:—We have been regaled from time to time with a pleasing report that the Northern ^Prison was paying expenses, and leaving quite a handsome little margin for the public strong-box. But the Auditor of State, on Tuesday, dissipated the happy •dream by issuing a warrant for $10,851 38 to defray the expenses orthat institution for the last quarter. If the concern don't pay, why not say so and be done with it?
Licrhtning Rods.
We consider" most lightning rods on houses as no protection at all against lightning, and the majority of lightning rod peddlers who are so plenty in the
summer
as little better than swindlers.
We believe that the value of lightning rods any way is greatly exaggerated in the public minds. But if a person is going to the expense of protecting his house with one, he ought to have as good a thing as possible, and for the instruction of the ignorant we give below the directions for putting up lightning rods that Prof. Henry, of the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, has lately given to a friend:— 1. The rod should consist of round ix-on of about one inch in diameter its parts, throughout the whole length, should be in perfect metallic continuity, by being secured together by coupling ferules. 2. To secure it from rust the rod should be coated with black paint, itself a good conductor. 3. It should terminate in a single platinum point. 4.
The
shorter and more direct the course
of the rod to the earth the better bondings should be rounded and not formed in acute angles. 5. It should be fastened to the building by iron eyes, and may be insulated from these by cylinders of glass (I don't however consider the latter of much importance.)
G. The rod should be connected with the earth in the most perfect manner possible, and nothing is better for this purpose than to place it in metallic contact with the gas pipes or better with the water-pipes of the city. This connection may be made by a ribbon of copper or iron soldered to the end of the rod at one of its extremities and wrapped round the pipe at the other. If a connection of this kind is impracticable, the rod should be continued horizontally to the nearest well, and then turned verticallv downward until the end enters the water as deep as its lowest level. The horizontal part of the rod may be buried in a stratum of pounded charcoal and ashes. The rod should be placed, in preference, on the west side of the building. A rod of this kind may be put up by an ordinary blacksmith. The rod in question is in accordance with our latest knowledge of all the facts of electricity. Attempted improvements on it are worthless, and as a general thing are proposed by those who are but slightly acquainted with the subject.
A THRILLING SCENE.
Eighteen Indians Carried Over tlie Falls in the Yellowstone River and are Dashed to Pieces.
A letter to the Omaha Herald, dated "Old Militia Camp, on the Yellowstone, May 11," says:
A party of composed of Jules Farrar, Pierre Bernard, Ike Hedges, George Henden, a Crow Indian, and the undersigned, left this place on the 13th of March, for a trip to the almost unknown falls of the Yellowstone.
On the 2d of April, about 10 A. M., we halted at the base of some foot-hills, there being some signs of gold, and commenced sinking a hole. We had not proceeded long with our work, before we were startled by seeing our Crow Indian running swiftly towards us. He reported a small band of Indians, known as "Sheep Eaters," distant about four miles above and in the same canon. We felt no great uneasiness, however, knowing full well that with our improved firearms we would be enabled to overcome 50 of the sneaking red devils.
The same night our pack-horses three in number were run off by the "Sheep Eaters we started in pursuit before daylight, and the sun was not more than 15 minutes high when we struck the trail. From the appearance of the same it was evident that they had at least four hours the start of us. Upon questioning our guide, we ascertained that the valley we were in, and which our trail followed, mountains, and t'nat* there 'was no possible mode of egress save by the upper end of the valley, which opened to the Yellowstone but a short distance above the foils.
No sooner was this information elicted than away we sped in pursuit. After three hours sharp riding we came upon the band, and in such a manner as to cause us some surprise, about midway in the stream, where could be seen a hastily constructed raft, composed of drift-wood joined together by thongs made of buckskin and buffalo robes. Upon this strange craft were seen, in the centre, 13 braves, while 5 squaws were essaying to paddle the unwieldy craft to the opposite shore, with pieces of bark as substitute for paddles. Our pack-horses were in the river, and so also were the Indian ponies, four of the latter reached the opposite shore.
This strange signt bursting upon our view, rendered us, for the time being, incapable of action. At a glance we could see that they were gradually going down stream, despite the efforts of the squaws, and although our senses for the moment forsook us, the sharp crack of a rifle and the yell of a "Sheep Eater" told that the equanimity of our Crow guide was well preserved. At this juncture Pierre Bernard shouted out, "For God's sake, boys, don't murder them they are bound to go over the falls."
The raft having been caught in an eddy, not a vestige of it was to be seen, it having sunk several inches below the surface, and the Indians seemed to be like so many weird spirits floating on the rushing waters. One of the Indians rose, and bending on his bow, shot our Crow through the arm. The shot was returned, and again a yell of pain was heard proceeding from a "Sheep Eater." Bernard then told the Crow in his own dialect, to stop firing, but he paid no attention to the command. Again he raised his rifle, but a lariat skilfully thrown by Pierre held him fast. The scene now presented was one which those who witnessed will not forget to their dying day.
When about 50 yards below where we standing, an old Indian arose and stood erect in the centre of a circle of braves. He spoke a few words, turned his face toward the sun, and seemingly bade it farewell then wrapping his robe around him he sat down. The squaws immediately flung their pieces of bark into the river, threw themselves on the submerged raft and commenced pulling out their long tresses, in the meanwhile screaming an howling more like demons than human beings.
Indian seated in the circle shook hands and then commenced Availing their alAvays mournful deatli song. Nearer nearer, they approach the fearful abyss! still not a movement Avas perceptible on the part of the braves. They sat as immovable as statues, and did not quake with fear at the near approach of the King of Terrors. As they shot SAviftly down the stream, our party instinctively raised their hats while looking at them, and I doubt if there was one, except the Crow, who did not show signs of visible emotion.
We turn from the spot Avith indescri bable feelings. As we take our last look at the treacherours stream, where eighteen mortals passed from life to death, we discern hovering ever the fatal precipice two large eagles, Avhose screams resound above the noise of the waters. The roar of the cataract and the eagles1 screams what a fit requium for these departed red children. a .• fi.

EI ROPEAN CORRESPONDENCE.
BEKNE, SWITZERLAND, May, 1870., Editor Terre Haute Gazette: We came to Berne on Saturday last. Berne is, as you knoAV, the seat of govemment and all of the foreign ministers reside here. I should think that it was a dull uninteresting place, as it is a city of no commercial importance. Even the manufacturing cities in Europe are dull in comparison with ours.
One Avould imagine that Lyons and Zurich, two of the largest silk manufacturing establishments on this continent, Avould be places of great activity and bustle, and that the factories would be large in size and number. But it is quite the contrary. Until recently, all the silks -manufactured in those cities were woven by hand in the houses of the peasantry, but manufacturers are beginning to introduce steam and machinery in weaving silk.
To slioAV you how hard the people have to Avork in these countries, a day laborer must begin at 5 A. M., and stop only at 9 P. M. Those are the legal hours for which the poor man receives one franc in compensation.
We are boarding at one of the finest hotels I have seen in Europe, and which Avill compare quite favorably with those of our OAvn country, which is saying as much as can be said for hotels anyAvhere. There is, generally, nothing like so much elegance, nor even comfort, in their hotels and houses as there is with us. Every effort here seems to be directed towards making out door life as charming and attractive as possible. All of the cities in Europe, no matter how small, have their public Avalks and gardens, and every residence that can boast of 10 feet ot ground has an arbor or summer-house.
We find ourselves here in grand company, but a drawback to my enjoyment is that I do not speak French. This being the language of all foreign courts, there is little enjoyment mingling in diplomatic circles, without a knowledge of that language. To-night the diplomatic corps give an entertainment to which I am invited, but I shall not go as I am suffering from a severe cold.
We dined, on Thursday, Avith the family of the American Minister. We have found them exceedingly pleasant people although the Avife of the Minister is rather stately in manner and appearance, much more so than some of the noble ladies that I have seen. Aside from the Minister's wife there are two other ladies in the family Avhom Ave found very agreeable. We also met there, a lady and her young daughter Avho are natives of Greece but Avho inhabit now an old castle in this neighborhbood,

have invited us to visit. This morning we received from Rome a dozen beautiful sashes with boAvs to match four of them. They are made of the richest, heaviest silk I ever
saAV,
and are truly beautiful. We also received some Roman necklaces, which are very beautiful.
After I have been in Berne long enough to see its sights, I Avill Avrite and tell you A\rhat they are. We only arrived here Saturday afternoon, and to-day is Tuesday. I have nofr been out of the house since then, only to ride in a close carriage to the American Minister's. In a few days I hope to be able to get out and see the city.

"The old refectory of Santa Croe, containing an invaluable Cenacolo, if not by by Giotto, at least one of the finest of his school, is used as a carpet manufactory. In order to see the fresco, I had to get on the top of a loom. The Canacolo, (of Raffaelle) recently discovered, I saAV when the refectory it adorned Avas used as a coach house. The fresco, which gave Raffaelle the idea of the Christ of the transfiguration, is in an old Avood shed, at San Miniato, concealed behind a heap of faggots. In June of last year, I saw Gentile da Fabrian's picture of the Adoration of.the Magi, belonging to the Academy of Florence, put face uppermost, in a shoAver of rain in an open cart. On my suggesting the possibility of the rain hurting it, an old piece of matting was thrown over its face, and it Avas wheeled away "per essere publita*" What fate this signified, is best to be discovered from the large penugino in the Academy, whose divine distant landscape is now almost concealed by the mass of French ultramarine, painted over it, apparently,

Not to detain the reader by going through the cities of Italy, I will only further mention that, at Padua the rain beats through the west windows of the Arena Chapel, and runs down over the frescos that at Venice, in September last, I saAV three ouckets set in the Sculadi San Roco, to catch the rain which came through the canvasses of Tintoret, on the roof.

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD.
'•The life of the flesh is in the Blood," is a Scripture maxim that science proves to be rue. The people talk of bad blood, as the cause oi many diseases, and, like many popular opinions, this of bad blood is founded in truth.
The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite plain—bad Digestion—causes imperfect nutrition, and consequently the circulation is feeble, the soft tissues lose their tone and elasticity and the tongue becomes pale, broad, and frequently covered with a pasty, white coiit. This condition soon shows itself in roughness of the skin, then in ERUPTIVE and ULCERATIVE diseases, and, when long continued, results in serious lesions of the Brain, Liver, Lungs, or Urinary Apparatus. Much, very much, suffering is caused by impure blood. It is estimated by some that one-fifth of the human family are affected with scrofula of some form.
When the blood is pure, you are not so liable to any disease. Many impurities of the Blood arise from impure diseases of large cities. Eradicate every impurity from the fountain of life, and good spirits, fair skin, and vital strength will return to you.
