OXE would have thought that torn aud distracted Cuba, had suffered enough during the past few bloody years at the hands of warring factions, A heavy hand has now been laid upon her by divine interposition. It appears that owing to the protracted droughts, the sugar crop will be 30 per cent, less than last year, and the tabacco crop, far below the average. She will find the next, year a hard one to bear.

VALIANT General Banning, chairman of the Military Committee of Congress, proposes to cut down the expenses of the officers of our army some $000,000, Before he gets through he hopes to enable Belknap to spend a million dollars less per annum. If he would dispense altogether with the services of one-half of the officers, the nation would possibly survive, considering that ours is the most officered army in the world.

GENTLEMAN GEOKGE as Buck* delight, to call George H. Pendleton, is traveling for his health through the south. In the meantime he appears to be keeping his weather eye ou Washington. His speeches to the sons of the south, and the daughters too for that matter, for Gentleman George is a gallant personage, seem to bear about them a faint suggestion that, "an they pressed him hard," he would not decline the Presidency. Hendricks should hasten his steps southward.

TF, at any time, or lbr any cause, the world has been led to believe that the Louisville Courier-Journal was not a staunch champion of the down trodden, and oppressed, the following manly protest uttered by it, against the indecorous nagging of one of its friends,should forever settle that suspicion. It says: "In th© baste incident to newspaper work an occasional atrocity is unavoidable but is time for some other protest to be made against the abbreviation of the name of the Gallatin Examiner. No Journalist, however hard pressed l'or time, can be excused lor referring to any paper aa the Gal. Examiner."

JOHN BRIGHT'S health seems to have been almost, if not quite completely restored. He made a ringing speech to hisconstitututs at Birmingham England on Saturday night. He proposes to abolish the English law of primo geniture which keeps the weatli of great families in tbe hands of the oldest child, at a sacrifice of the rights of the younger members. The inequality of the English system of representation in parliament, came in for a stirring denunciation at his hands. His own city of Birmingham, it seems, with 60,000 electors, has only three members in Parliament, while there are seventy members whose united constituencies does not exceed sixty thousand. -f

A CORRESPONDENT of the New York Tribune has caught up that journal on a question of theology. In a recent editorial article on "The Red Man and Religion" the Tribune, speaking of one of the Iudiana chiefs not unknown to fame, said, "This Spotted Tail knows no more of Heaven than the mustang which he expects to ride there." Coming in at this point the correspondent inquires "I do not quarrel with this proposition,, but ask what more do any of us know?" Continuing he says: "We expect to ride into Heaven on the mustang of orthodoxy, while the red'man expects to ride into and through Heaven upon the mustang of nature. What, is there more in--congruous in the Indians conception?" The Tribune is yet to be heard from in answer to its inguisit* ivecorrespondent.

ACCORDING to Washington dis* patches, the Senate committee on post offices aud post-roads, is still deliberatingonthe questiou of reducing the postage on transient mail matter, Why it should take them long to make a reduction from the outrageous charges imposed by the blundering legislation of last winter, it is difficult to understand. It is conceded on every hand, that the rate established

'w&eKVwwmrst'-

last "vrinier, is self-destructive, and whiie it has levied an onerous burden on thoae who use tne mail service, for that class of matter, has really reduced the revenues of the department by the enormous reduction of that kind of matter, which it has caused. The GAZETTE cordially sympathizes with the efforts of Secretary Jewell to make that department of the Government service self sustaining, and quite agrees with him that stepa should be taken to that end. He, however, is convinced that the present law is riot a good one, if, indeed, he ever did believe iu it, 1 not inconsistent with the possibility of making the postal service self sustaining, the rate of postage on newspapers to subscribers of papers,should also be reduced. In the increased use of the mail service with a lower rate, will be found, probably, reason for the reduction.

An Unwelcome Gnest.

A gentleman, by the name of Everest, is on his way from Europe to the United States. Now, ordinarily, the arrival in this country of a gentleman by the name of Everest, would not excite much enthusiasm. In the present instance, however, his coming is looked forward to with a degree of interest which approaches excitement, Everest, it seems, in the olden time, was agauger in &t. Lonis. In the interval between Megrue stepping down and out, and Fitzroy's stepping up and in, Everest officiated as paymaster of the ring. Rumor, even goes so far, as to couple his name with that of the go between, who carried ou diplomatic negotiations between the lace lamented oratorical Joyce, aud the mysterious "man in the country" who, iu some occult way, was the recipient of marked pecuniary favors from the manufacturers of sinuous alcohol. When that mysterious and wonderful weather bulletin came from Washington to St. Louis, predicting the coming of the storm, in the terse phrase, that lightning would strike Monday, Everest had a pressing engagement in Europe, which he had neglected already too long, aud he Winged his flight for a foreign shore. Promises have been made him, it is said, that if he would come back and unbosom himself to his benighted countrymen, he might expect immunity from the lightning stroke which, coupled with his? engagement abroad, had .frightened the timor« ous creature from his home. He is coming, and were he an hundred times a leper, or did he carry about his single person the seeds of all the contagious deseases, from Asiatic cholera to jail fever, he could Dot be a less welcome guest to his old friends, the partners of his joys and unwilling partakers, in prospective, oi his sorrows.

AT the time it was issued, the call of the Republican committee for a National Convention, was published in the GAZETTE. By its terms, each State is to be entitled in the convention to a list of delegates equal to twice the number of its Senators and Representatives iu Congress. Each Territory, and the District of Columbia, is to have two delegates. By such an arrangement, the total number of delegates in the convention will be 754, and 37S will be necessary to a choice. The number of delegates to which each State and Territory will be entitled, will appear in the following table. Gentlemen who are pressing the claims of particular candidates, or propose to risk any money on the event, had better cut it out and paste it in their hats. Amazing possibilities, it will be observed, are presented in it. The list is as follows:

Specie Paymeiits. '. j".

Afnong the many interesting contributions of Harper's Weekly to current political-discussion, not the least valuable have been a series of articles by Prof. Newcoinb on the financial question.' In one of his recent articles he gives some facts of great value. Ttiey quietly, but very effectually, knock tbe foundation from under Wendell Phillips' reckless statement that specie payments is a chemera and means specie when you do not want it, and nothing but paper when you do. Prof. Newcomb's statements are clearly and pointedly put and can easily be verified by history. He says:

First Fact—For fifty years past there has not been a day when any owner of an English bank-note could not get gold for it, nor is it likely that scuh a day will be seen for 500 years to come. Nor has there, in all probability been a business day at tbe banks,when one or more persons, and generally dozens or hundreds of them aid ooi want gold. Hardly a business day now 'passes in which the Bank of JSngland does not pay out gold to.tite amount of tens, or even thousands of dollars to people

wanting it. Remember this when yo» read or hear that specie-payments cannot be kept up on the limited supply of gold now availabie.

Second Fact—Under this policy the little Island of Great Britain has maintained the commercial supremacy of the world. London has become its great momentary centre, and, in spite of her svatem of land-tenure and other institutions which tend to the disadvantage of her poorer classes, the average laborer of England, is better off than that of any other country in Europe.

Third Fact—There is no case recorded in history of a Government issuing paper money not redeemable in gold or silver, and in quantities sufficient for commerce, without that paper money depreciating' The cases of such attempts and their failures are so numerous that a whole volume of history wuold be required to recount them.

See for instance, Sumner's "History of American Currency." Fourth Fact—There is now twice as much currency per capita of our population, as during the three years preceding our civil war, and yet wo are told the country is suffering for want of more. This fact illustrates the statement of the last lesson, that the greater the quantity of irredeemable enrreney issued, the scarcer money will seem to be.

If you tell these facts to an inflationist he may denounca you vigorously, aud scold you for remembering them, and say they have nothing to do with the present questions but he will not 1 dare to deny them unless he cares ncthing for truth. ______

PRIMi'riViS JUSTICE.

'IIirec Mr-11 I.ynchcdi at Charleston 'West V11. Cincinnati, Jan. 25.—The Gazette's Charleston, West Virgiuia, special says Thomas Hines and Wm. Dooley had an altercation regarding Dooley's wife, and Hines threatened to cut Dooley's tbroat. To-night Hines went to Dooley's shop, knocked on the door, and when Dooley appeared, Hines struck him with a knife at the lower part of the ear, severing the jugular. Dooley sezied the instrument used lor crimping boots, and felled Hines to the ground. Dooley died about an hour after. Hines is in jaii.

The cases of Dawsoa and Estop, who are charged with the murder of Lee, several days ago, was called in court at Charleston to-day. Tho prisoner's counsel consumed tne day in arguing for a change of venue, 011 account of tho popular excitement against the prisoners iu Charleston. The Judge reserved his decision|until to-day. The coux*t house and yard were filled with anxious people, tho majority of whom are citizens of Campbell's Creek, where the murder was committed.

Later—About 200 armed men arrived at 10 P. M. on the steamer Judge Baker, and proceeded to the jail and took Dawson aud Estep out and marched them ott to the woods, where they will probably be found hanging to a tree iu the morning. Dooley,who was killby Hines, early this evening, was a colored man. After the mob had carried off the Lee murderers, the colored citizens, to the number of 50, went down to the jail and demanded Hines. who was delivered to thena, and they then followed the former crowd to the woods with their prisoner, who will meet tho same fate.-

Boston, Jan. 25.—Some private parties, it is said, hold fully §100,000 worth of Winslows paper, a large proportion of which, it is faarad, Jii-wortuleaa^arwl the total amount of paper issued by him is stated by the Herald to be $250,009, The same paper says it is quite probable that he has systematically carried on the business of forgery, endeavoring to take up the forged notes with other worthless notes until driven to the wall. The Journal has information from reliable sources that Winslow, with his family, sailed for Brazil last Saturday. No efforts have yet been made to arrest him or discover his movements. It will require several days to fully disclose the extent of his rascality, as several banks outside of Boston are said to have been victimized.

Boston January 25.—The Herald tomorrow will state that the princli persons whose names are on Winslow's paper, forged or otherwise, are M. E. Sheldon, for $104,000 Leopold Morse, for $60,000 B. F.

A negro named Augnstan, armed with a shotgun, shortly afierward informed some colored woman that Olfutt bad been hurt. Augustan was suspected, and the crowd went to his cabin.

London, Jan. 25.—The eMontengrin Official Journal announces that the Porte is determined to declare war and annihalate Monsenegro. The Journal declares that Montenegro has preserved her neutrality, but is unable to prevent individual subjects from aiding their brethren. The Berlin correspondent of the Times says the above important statement is confirmed by a communication from Porte to the several powers, threatening that the Turks will immediately occupy Montenegro if her Government does not cease giving aid to the rebels.

THE FRENCH ELECTIONS.

A Paris correspondent of the Times telegraphs the following: It is asserted that information received by various political parties, gives this as the result of the recent elections: The Senate will include 22 Radicals, 16 irreconcileable Bonapartists, 47 moderate Bonaparti3ts,70Fusionists,Legitimists and Orleanists, Ministerialists, and 14 ultra Legitimists. This estimate includes the lile Senators already elect«d, and if correct, shows that tho- Left will have 125 seats in the Senate. It is reported that Buffet is engaged in rectifying mistakes in the list of Senatorial delegates, furnished by the prefects. A somi-official journal defends the govern ment for not publishing tbe returns of the elections, on the ground that it would be obviously improper for it to attempt to classify the delegates elected according to their political opinions as reported by tbe prefects, while the publication of the mere list of names would convey no information.

THE SPANISH ELECTION.

London, January 25.—A special from Madrid says the Sagastas organ, tbe Ibiua,and other opposition journals re iterate allegations of official pressure and abuses in the elections. The correspondent state that the Sagastists have obtained forty seats, Castelar's party ten,and the Radicals six or eight. Great apathy prevailed throughout the country. The ministerial majority is too large to be genuine or beneficial.

It is understood that special meetings will be held to frame the bill applying the proceeds of the sale of public lands to educational purposes.
