'Editorial Notes.
It is a melancholly fact that the biograptaer of -Charles Dickens, across the waste of water, is exerting himself to exalt the memory of Mr. Dickens by "blawsting" thfe-reputation of his widow but it is a further ahd more cheerful fact, that the son of the great deceased objects to the means by which the biographer seeks-"to attain the end,
A rich silver deposit has been discovered on the northern shore of Lake Superior. As usual speculators seized upon the territory, and ^w seek to hold the vast domain in abeyance to themseves. There should be s?me law to protect the poor as against the speculators, that the former be not driven from their discoveries and possessions.

The ski*Lrf the dress, begins lust bei***w»neath tfife bosffnrff'ei?©^^ of old white or cream-cplOrclfsilk, trimmed with real lace, sleeves short and puffed, and corsage open and pointed. The skirt ""clings to the figure, disclosing its shape, after the manner of the antique Greek draperies.
It strikes us that this fashion will not prevail until the conventionality of corsets has fallen into disuse, because the "human 'orm diVine" will not be at all attractive as now compressed that i3 to say, the-custom of tight lacing renders the female form so unattractive that if a close fitting dress should become fashionable, those who have been accustomed to lacing would not care to "keep icustyle."

Jiewsfcoys' Strike.
The newsboys indulged in a strik° yesterday afternoon, and made the locality of the evening Dispatch establishment exceedingly, lively. In fact, thev demeanored themselves with a looseness requiring the interference of the police. It seems that the Dispatch has heretofore been sold to them at thirty cents per dozen. When the new management took hold the paper was somewhat reduced in size, and the peripatetic newsmongers demanded that the price should be correspondingly reduced, placing the figure at twenty cents per dozen. The proprietors refused to accede to this proposition, and a strike was the consequence. One or more boys bought pampers, but they were roughly used by their fellows, and the sale of the paper on the streets was virtually estopped during the entire evening. The trouble commenced on Tuesday, but the hoys then held out but a short time. The recusant young customers numbered fifty or sixty.
About dusk lastevening they indulged in. an impromptu procession, after wh'ch ~4,ey scattered wjiere their fancy

The other day in St. I,mis the citizens were startled, and subsequently thrown into a state of the deej^st alarm by a great shadow falling upon the city, where all had been suushine a moment before. Not a cloud was to be seen-in the sky but the gloom grew deeper, and the alarm extended to Carondelet, but at this juncture a policeman discovered that the phenomenon was occasioned by "Globules" of the Qlobe, who was upon the Court House dome waving his ears to and fro, little thinking he was shutting off the sunlight from two-thirds of the city.—Titusvi'le Press.

From Sew York.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.—Further details of the Missouri disaster State that when the fire was first discovered in the pantry, wet carpets were put on it by the pantrymen, and it was reported to the passengers tliat the fire was out, quieting the fears and causing general confidence. Within two minutes, several voices screamed from the deck that the ship was on fire, causing the greatest coufusion. In a short time three boats were lauudbed without either wood or water being placed in them, aud only three oars. Two other boats were swamped, and the flames burned one life boat. The engines were stopped but the sails remained spread.
When last seen Captain Green, Purser Hempstead, and some of the crew were trying to get off the lee boat, surrounded by smoke and flames.
The probability that any of the passengers have been picked up by passing steamers is small, as the storm probably drove all the .vessels out of the usual course.
The horse epidemic appears to have reached a crisis, and to be now decreasing. The number of new-Cases reported gradually becoming less, buta proportion of the affected animals are still dangerously sick.
The general traffic of the city has greatly recovered within the last two days, and stage and street railroad travel is partially resumed. Veterinary surgeons also report a slight improvement
In Jersey City and adjacent districts the disease appears to be only developing, and is committing great havoc.
A Troy dispatch received late last night announces the death of Hon. John A Griswold, in that city lastevening.
The coming Presidential contest begins to absorb the attention of the press. The Times tljis morning places before the public the effect that Greeley's election v^Ktld have on the country. It would make business uncertain would involve considerable danger iu foreign compli cations would be fatal to the civil service reform, and vould be substantially the installation of the Democratic party.
It expresses the utmost confidence in the resultof the election. The Tribune reproduces the Cincinnati address and platform, and editorially claims unexpected and formidable strength of the Liberals all over the country, which demonstrates the wisdom of the Cincinnati Conventibn. It again asserts the Liberal party to be a true Republican party, aud appeals to all thoughtful, conscientious Republicans to assist in the coming contest.

From Washington.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.—The reduction in the public debt during October, was five million two hundred and twentyeight thousand four hundred and seven dollars.
From Chicago.
CHICAGO, November 1.—The horse epidemic seems to be rapidly spreading here. Within the last four days one thousand horses have been attacked, and no doubt the disease will be general throughout the city in
a
few hours
from the present writing. So far the disease has shown itself in a mild form. Many of the horses suffering from it are still at work, and might have been seen on the streets yesterday. The main portion of those who have been relieved from duty are already recovering, owing to prompt and sagacious treatment. Should this be general, the fear of a total interruption of. business need not be entertained. The duration appears to vary in proportion to the promptitude with which it is met.
There are some 1,200 horses used on the Southside street railroads, three hundred of-them were slightly attacked with the distemper, but are now convalescent. Tweney-five others are now suffering under a mild attack which creates no alarm among the managers. None of those that have been sick bad a relapse. While no serious interruption of travel is apprehended the company are prepared to subsitute dummies for horseflesh as a motive power, provided permission to run them is granted by the city authorities. None of the street railways or omnibus lines are in the least interrupted by the disease.
A company of colored tanners got into a row last night with' a car driver, because be tried to pass through their ranks, and handled him rather severely. Several policeman who interfered were also badly treated and compelled to retreat without making any arrests.
A destructive fire occurred on Clinton street, about midnight, in the building owned by the old Mechanical Bakery Company, and leased by Hoffman & Gridley, grain and commission merchants It was worth probably $18,000, and damaged to the extent of about $6,000. Hoffman & Gridley occupied the entire fourth floor as a storage warehouse, and the first floor of No. 27 as an office. They had in store about 3,000 bushels of oats and corn, which together with their fixtures are valued at $3,500. Insurance 1,500 in the Northwestern National, of Milwaukee, and 1,300 in the Globe, of Chicago. The other occupants of the building were as follows A. H. Blackett & Co., spice mills; Spalding Brothers, saw tures; Ezra A. Cook, lithographer, stationer and printer Doxel & Cowles, leather manufacturers D. F. Bremmer, baker. Their aggregate losses will probably reach $20,000. There was a painful rumor in circulation in the vicinity of the fire, that a young man named Dewit Collins, an employee in the leather factory, bad been lost in the flames.
Suit has been commenced by the Bavaria Paper Company against the Chicago Evening News, a Greeley paper, to throw it iuto bankruptcy.
From New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS, NOV. 1.—We have Diaro De La Marina and Havana letters with dates up to the 19th ult., from which we glean the following Two prominent and wealthy leaders of the insurrection at Havana have furnished fuuds to further the case of young Alphonz, the Prince ofAsturias. Two wealthy planters are known to have sent funds to the pretender, Don Carlos. These planters are Carlists. The Republican movement in Spain has few sympathizers among the Spaniards in Cuba. They know that the estabiisement-of a Republic in Spain would result in thQ abolition of slavery, which, they are determined to maintain.
Assassinations are perpetrated almost daily by the colored population. General Isquirodo, the present Captain General of the Phillippine Islands, will soon come to Cuba as Captain General. He is a staunch supporter of everything ancient, particularly of the slavery question.

Col. Jose Weinaz, of the Espant Regiment, sent a bullet through his brain at Halquin, where he was in command.
A fine of five hundred dollars has been imposed upon the Cresent City and other mail steamers, for bringing the mails without being provided with a certificare of the Postmaster General indicating them as mail' steamers. The Uuited States Consul has protested against the action of the authorities, the steamers having always brought the mails without this document, and no. notice haviug been giveu that one would be required. The Spanish government don't contribute anything towards carrying the mails 011 the contrary they charge an exhorbitant postage rate on all letters from abroad.
The Patriots and the Spaniards have had an engagement at Rio Abaja Tunas. General Modesto Diaz commanded the Patriots. The Spanish, as usual, claim the victory. Another engagement took place at Gutnallada on the 3d inst. The Spaniards have shot twelve Cubans at Guisa in the Eastern Department of the Island.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—A telegram was received here to-night from New York, giving a report prevalent there today, that the treasury had issued five additinual millions of greenbacks. It can be stated wilh truth, and about which there is no official concealment, that four or five millions of the reserves of forty-four million' the issue of which the Treasury Department considers left to the discretion of the Secretary, were made use of, when the Assistant Treasurer of New York was instructed to buy bonds and sell gold apart from the'usual programme. This was on the 7th of October, more than three weeks ago.-Since that time ho further amount of reserve has been used, nor is there the least probability that it will again soon be drawn upon. The transaction to which reference is made was to meet an extraordinary contingency.
