The auspicious moment for poor struggling Cuba seems to have at last arrived. The galling yoke of one of the most despotic powers in Europe, is about to be shaken oil. Spain, wesincerely hope will lose her Cuban possession". We have but little faith,that GreatBritain will assist in giving freedom to the Cubans, but the United States must take a bold and lie termined stand, and see to it that Cuba is free. They have fought for their freedom "long and well." They have now the respect of other liberal nations. They have proven their ability to maintain an unending war, for their liberty. They have demonstrated to the rest of mankind, their ability for self-government With all those thing patent to tha obser valion of every one, can it be possible that this Republic will remain longer still, and thus give encouragement to old Spain to renew her eflbrts to subjugate tiie native Cubans.

We arc most happy to learn that the Cubans have recently received in safety a shipment often thousand stand of arms from New York, and there is no doubt they will be able to find men to use them. The great want of the patriots heretofore has been arms and ammunition. Clothing is not a prime necessity in so mild a climate, and the country is so prolific that they do not seriously sutler for food. They appear to have that which is more essential in their sunny climate—an unfaltering determination to be free.

THE New York Sun places at the head of its column the following Presidential ticket, as a "National Reform Ticket" for 1872:

VOK PRESIDENT

LYMAN TRUMBULL, OF ILLINOIS. Ml VIOK PRESIDENT SAMUEL J. TILDEX,

OF NEW YORK.

There seems to be sonic of the "eternal fitness of things" in this ticket. The ablest statesman in Illinois and one of the ablest lawyers in New York, make a union that is pleasant to behold. One is a Republican—not a radical—not an Administration man only so far as the Administration is right—not a Grant man because he thinks him not a fit person to be President of this great Republic—not a politician, but a statesman, wise, conservative, independent, bold, patriotic, clear-headed and incorruptible.

The other a Democrat—not a B.iurt,0n—not one of those bull-headed Democrats who appears all the time exceedingly desirous to butt his brains out acainst the Fifteenth Amendment but a Reform Democrat—one whose eyes have been opened, and has ceased to see as "through a glass darkly"—a Democrat of 1S71 and not a Democrat of 1S60—a rejuvenated and born again Democrat, and more than all else, an honest man.

We rather like the ticket, and if it should be the one agreed on by the friends of liberal government, and an honest administration of honest men, we will gladly support it.

WK find in the Hartford Courant a wise aud spirited protest against the attempt to suppress by mere force all opposition to the renomination of Grant as the Republican candidate. There must be, says the Courant, entire freedom among Republicans in the expression of their preference. Iutimidation cannot be allowed. Despotism of this sort will speedily kill any party, and ought to do so. It it is treason to criticise the President, aud conspiracy to speak of anything but a second term for him, it wiil soon be discovered that vitality lias gone out of the party.

It is encouragiug that such views expressed by a journal of the ability and eminence of tbo Courant and if the Re-

must die.

SPAIN.

War Excitement in Madrid—Knmors of Threatened Intervention bvllic I nited States and England in Cuban Affairs.

The aspect of afTairs in Cuba begins to assume interesting proportions. The following special dispatch is from Washington to the Cincinnati Commercial, and appeared in that paper yesterday morning: "It is rumored at Madrid that Great Britain and the United States threaten immediate intervention in Cuban affairs. Tho Cabinet held a protracted session yesterday, and the King was in consultation with the Minister up to a late hour. jhe Council of Ministers was in session the greater part of yesterday, and did not adjourn until a late hour last night. Questions of the greatest importance, growing out of the recent executions in Havana and the general condition oi Cuba, were under consideration. It is reported that the Minister of Foreign Affairs was advised that the Governments of the United States and Great Britain have telegraphed their representatives at Madrid that they should feel compelled to intervene in th'o affairs of Cuba, in the interest of humanity, since the efforts of the Spanish authorities to restore order had proved fruitless. Although the officials refuse to give information, it is certain that a crisis has arisen in connection with Cuban aflairs, which the Cabinet was specially summoned to consider. The King presided at the meeting, and produced a profound sensation by proposing personally to proceed to Cuba to direct the pacificatory measures in the island. It is generally believed that the result of the King and the Cabinet was to convoko the Cortes in extra session to provido means to crush the insurrection. The excitement is very great, and sympathy is expressed for the Government, even the late Ministers proffering their support to the present Ministry."

publican party is not to come to a speedy We hope the road will be built and^that and disastrous end, they must prevail in it. It was formed in the interest of freedom and when it becomes tyrannical it

The Unchanged Democratic Party. There is much good sense in the following which we take from the New York Sun. We especially recommend its perusal to those of the Bourbon school of politics, whose organ is the Terre Haute Journal: "Many prominent Democrats insist that their party has never changed its name, its organization, its creed, or the character of its leadership, and, moreover, that it never ought to do either the one or the other. Never was there a greater error than this and it is this hallucination which stands in the way of the next Presidential campaign.

As to the name: The original name of the party was Republican, and it never assumed to itself any other name till about the time Gen. Jackson became President and even then such men as Mr. Van Buren for a long time called it the Democratic Republican party, though its usual designation was the Democratic party and now it begins to call itself the Conservative party.

As to the organization The party was completely broken up in the Presidential contest of 1824. Three Democratic Republican candidates ran for the Presidency —Crawford, the regular candidate, and Adams and Clay. Jackson also ran as a sort of People's candidate. Crawford came out third in tlie race. Jackson, who was more than hall a Federalist, having been elected in 1828, then reorganized the party by bringing into it a large body of

Federalists, and the odds and ends of other factions. When the present Republican party was formed in 1855-6, the Democratic party was again reorganized by drawing into its ranks a great mass of Old-Line Whigs and some of the debris of the Know-Notliing party, while a large number of the most eminent Democrats of the country helped to organize the Republican party.

As to the creed: Madison signed the charter for the United States Bank, which Jackson won great fame by destroying. Monroe approved the protective tariff of 1824, Van Buren and Wright were protectionists, and the Democratic party claims to favor free trade. In the teeth of Calhoun, Gen. Jackson, in the era of nullification, gave the celebrated toast, "The Fedeial Union—it must be preserved." In our times the Democratic party of 1871 is no more like the party which elevated Jefferson to the Presidency in 1801 than the Liberal party of England under Gladstone is like the same party which Robert Walpole ruled one hundred and thirty years age.

As to leadership: In early days the party was led by sound Democrats of the type of Jefferson, Madison and Clay. At a'later period, Jackson, who, as we have already said, was half a Federalist, became the head of the party, and took into his counsels Roger B. Taney, James Buchanan, Louis McLane, and others of that stamp, who were life-long Federalist, dyed in the wool. Still nearer our times, Calhoun, who was simply a pro-slavery Secessionist, and no more of a Democrat than Lucifer, dictated the policy of the party. lie trained up such disciples as Jefferson Davis, AlAlexander II. Stephens, and Robert Toombs, who, from time to time, trampled upon such Democrats as Benton, Murcy, and Douglas, and finally plungod the country into a disastrous civil war, whoso resulting consequences have left the Democratic party a magnificent ruin.

And this is the party which has never changed,and never ought to change If it would regard measures as of more con scquenco than men, and substantial things as of more value than a fading name, it might, with assistance from other quarters, l.ope for a resurrection."

IN Boston, the President of the Washington Street Railroad Company has been prosecuted by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and fined twenty dollars and costs for allowing liis cars to be overloaded, it being proved that the horses attached to a car were cruelly beaten while attempting to draw forty-seven passengers up a steep grade,

New Railroad Project-.

The block coalfields of Clay county have been so thoroughly explored aud tested that there no longer remains douht but that we have the most extensive and valuable coal anywhere to be fou'id in the United States. It has been only about six years since it was discovered that the Clay county coal could be used in its crude state for the purpose of smelting iron, aud in the short space of time, from then till now, the nortlierh portion of our county has been so extensively developed, and there has been such an aggregation of capital there as to attract the attention of capitalists throughout the whole country. But the coal deposits in the northern part of our county are indeed limited as compared with those in the central and southern portions. This county is thirty miles in length from its northern to its southern limit, and there remains an unbroken field of block coal from the southern liue to a point wit-bin seven miles of the northern boundary. This coal is to be found in two separate veins or strata lying from forty to sixty feet below the surface und is ea&ily mined. This vast region of territory is also among *be I est agricultural lands in the state, and what is not in a state of cultivation is covered with the most valuable poplar anil oak timber. Eel river, a beautiful stream, also traverses almost the entire length of the coal district, passing through the central and southern portions of the county, affording plenty of surface water to run all the manufactories that can be crowded upon its bauks. AU that re mains to be done in order to ensure the speedy and complete development of these vast mineral and other resources, is the construction of railroads so as to afford easy and cheap transportation.

Two railroads are already almost in process of construction through this field one extending from Chicago upon the north to the Ohio river on the south, crossing Eel river at Bowling Green the other from Cincinnati to Terre Haute, to cross Eel river, either at Bowling Green or some point below the towu. Both of the.-e roads will be completed and in tbon ugh running order within the next sixteen months, which will bring into our midst a great increase of population ami wealth. But with the facilities these roads will bring us our transportation will be wholly inadequate to the demand. Our coal is beginning to seek consumers abroad aud the great cities which lie in easy access to it, such as Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Louisville, Chicago and St. Louis, can no longer forego the advantages of this indispeusible article. Their already great and rapidly increasing manufacturing and other interests absolutely demand it. Tiie central and southern portions of our county are destined soou to take a leap forward in material progress wholly unprecedented in the history of the western country.

We need another railroad and we believe it will soon De made. Already the people liviug along the line of the old Burnside survey from Fairfield to Terre Haute are alive to the importance of the extension of that road from Martinsville to Terre Haute. Thirty-eight miles of the Burnside road, from Fairfield to Martinsville, Is already made aud in operatiou. Fairfield, Franklin, Martinsville, Gosport and Bowling Green and tiie rich communities which lie along the route are now ready to co-operate with each other in this great enterprise. Let us all vie with each other in this project and it will soon be built. This road would be easily built for it would pass through a level country. It would pass through oue of the finest mineral, agricultural and timbered regious of Indiaua aud, when completed, would be the shortest route from Cincinnati to Terre Haute by from 16 to 25 miles.

the necessary steps will be taken by the

people along the route to insure it. Speaking for the people of Bowliug Green and central Clay county, we think we can, in truth, say they are ready to move whenever those residing at other points are likewise ready.—Bowling Green Archives.

It is said that if a puff of air were to be blown into a vein of an animal, death would instantaneously follow, because circulation would be stopped. The blood makes the entire circuit of the human body every seven minutes, and whenever this circulation is impeded or any of its channels are clogged by impurities which ought to be carried off, disease follows—fever oi a disorder of liver or kidneys, or scrofula, or dyspepsia.

A O A E N E

Our citizens are feniiliar witli the claims pnt forth by certain of our competitors to being the "leailing House." "The Great Headquarters," the "Chief Emporium." Ac. Some go so far as to assert in so many words, that their sales are larger than any other Dry Goods house in the city.

WE PROPOSE TO TEST THE QUESTION!

We believe our sales, even in our store before it was enlarged, and when we were

badly crippled for rooin, far exceeded those of any single Dry Goods establishment in town. Now, owing to the splendid addition made to our store, which gives us, in our

three floors and basement, much the largest Dry Goods and Carpet Establishment in

this section of the State, we have ample room for doing an immense trade, and for

the accommodation of all our customers. Our recent sales, we believe, are

Greater than tliose of Any Two Other Dry Goods Houses

We propose to test the question by challenging any two of our competitors to com

C0MPAKE THEM THUS COMBINED WITH OURS,

Each firm to make affidavit to the correctness of the amount of sales reported, and to

permit inspection of any or all of their books that the committee may desire to ex

amine in order to arrive at a correct decision. We propose to show this community that in spite of the fact that everj' one of the

Dry Goods merchants of this city are combined against us, and in most instances do

not scruple to employ means, however unworthy, to injure our trade, we are still so grandly supported in our warfare upon high prices by the people, that our sales have

increased so rapidly as now to be, we believe, Greater than the Sales of any Two of

our Competitors Combined Now, gentlemen, walk up and "toe the mark," or else admit you DARE NOT make

the comparison of sales asked for. In the latter case do not let us hear anything more

about your "Leading Emporiums" and "Great Headquarters."

Our Great Opening Sale Continued!

For a few da3's longer we shall make no change in our prices. The rush since our

opening has been so great that some of our regular customers havo been unable to get waited upon. We desire to give all a chance at these bargains, which have so

electrified the country for miles around. We have just received and placed on sale

A big lot oi American Delaines at 12 l-2c. Other stores are charging just double that price for them. jfiagnificen Sivi'k of New Striped Shawls at $3, $4, and $5.

We are selling an enormous number of Shawls. Customers tell us our prices are far below what oilier stores are charging. An extra heavy full sized White Blanket, $3 a pair.
