WITH each decline in the prices of labor, the American heart yearns for sweet concourse with the high priced President.
"GRANT'S own" say that he signed tho Balary grab bill which doubled his own pay, in order to save the appro priation bill to which it was attached, mid which ought to have passed. This being the cane, ha has not, of course, drawn his double aa,lary. Another letter from Mr. Spinner is in order. Has or has not Grant taken tho pay
ONE hundred thousand dollars, divided among the million laborers throughout the country, now out of employment, would not go far towards feeding and clothing them, and yet oach one of them thinks that President who stole that much from the public coffers stole itTrom him Tills conies of making out that Grant saved the country, and that all the good crops were his doing. Action «nd reaction are equal in phjsicsand in politics. The reaction lias set in against Grant.
NEWS from New York reports the great houses of B. II. Ciatlin & Co., A. T. Btewart, and Peake, Opdyke & Co. not only reducing prices to the lowest possible margin, but advertising the new turn in their business with a vigor and energy showing their resolution to press upon the country, lfposible, tho goods now in Block. The men of nerve who advertise their business and turn over stocks of goods rapidly, leading in all reductions of prices and BO save loss instead of following it and losing, are the ones who will come out of the piesent crash with credit unimpaired. Look out for them in the advertising columns of the GAZETTE.
HON. WM. F. CODY,of the Nebraska Legislature, whose alias and stage name is 13tiflalo Bill, has become disgusted with the drama, and gone back to tho more congenial tasks of killing buffalo and making laws. He sayB the show business is not as ennobling as law making, and that in the latter occupation much freer scope is given to tho cultivation and development of the cesthetic and financial faculties than in the former. Tho retirement of tho Hon. Buffalo Bill from the stage, aL'd the suspension of the nightly massacres, will enable the United States to realize the predictions of Mr. Census Walker about the population in 1876. A new lease of life is given to the human race.
TIIB roysterlng bloviators of the Democratic party in Wisconsin celebrated the defeat of Radicalism in that State in the usual fashion. The more they celebrated the braver they became and more forgetful of the Liberal allies and disaffected Repub licans to whose assistance they were indebted for victory. That sort of thing stirred up the ire of the Madison Democrat, an able and Independent paper, which had rendered good service during the campaign, and it administered the following rebuke. It says: "For one element to come forward and claim this as its achievement is exceedingly offensive to all the rest, and smacks strongly of bad faith when it comes from Democratic speakers. If they flatter themselves with the delusion that this grand uprising of the people means a restoration of the old Democratic party, they fail to comprehend its Spirit." ^.eummmm—mm-
JAMKS II. LUCAS, of St. Louis, died on Sunday, loaving $10,000,000 for moths and rust to corrupt, and thieves to break through and steal.--Exchange.
What Mr. Lucas ought to have done instead of leaving his money in the above precarious and highly improper condition, was to have selected, a year or so ago, out of his acquaintances in St. Louis, some quiet, genteil, pleasant-spoken, handsome, intelligent, thrifty though not parsimonious, generous though not prodigal, young man, and given his money to him, telling him from day to day to dispense iu worthy charities, the wealth which posthumous lawsuits would otherwise divert into wrong channels in a way raiculatcd to make the marrowless bones of (lie angelic capitalist rattle iu the grave. In no walk of life would lie have been so likely to have found the right sort of ft character, straightforward, reliable and accurate as in the profession of journalism. If he couldn't have found what he was after in St. Louis, we could have introduced him here in Terre Haute to a half dozen journalists, embryo philanthropist?, ready to burst the bonds of the chrysalis state into full-blow benefactors of the race the instant they were given $10,000,000, instant they were given cau.uuu.w uud told to be cood and charitable.
A w.ut with Spain, iu which the army should be raised iu numbers to million of men, is Just what is needed just now. By that means employment would be given direct to a million of men in the field, and an
other
million at heme in workshops and factories aud on the farms, providing them with munitions aud clothing and food. In this way, production would be greatly stimulated and a ready market be opened for everything,aud a mighty liberal buyer be on hand. Government could borrow all the money needed, and that, too, from capitalists who are now hoarding it, and by a liberal system of distribution, could remove the present stringency. As a nation, we want just what a- child with a toothache does, viz.: instant relief, and it must be accomplished with a presio, change. Any pain connected with the operation cannot be thought of. Our national #r»rgs ronst bp "Landlord, fill the '!nwinsfr ji-'w!," "Drive Dull Care
while we live and our faith, that not until after us the flood may come. "Pay as you go" is the precept of a plodder, unworthy the regard of a great nation which has estimated its future greatness, and proposes to get discounted all the bills of credit it can make thereon.
THE willenium is coming, if it has not already come. The lion and the lamb are about to lie down together. The principles of Sumner's supplemental civil rights bill are about being adopted. Sullivan county is the chosen field for the beginning^ the new era. And now what is this great reform Nothing less than that one Jethro Bass, an American citizen of African descent, is trying—and with good prospect of success—to get his children into the public schools with the white children of that county With this puri ose in view.be is car rying around a petition, which sets forth the facts that he is a taxpayer, and so helps to support the public schools, and that the colored people are so few in that section as to make It impossible to establish a school entirely for their children. He is a well-to-do, law-abiding citizen, and his children are clean and intelligent. Many signatures are affixed to his petition, aud there is reason to believe that he will tucceed.
He ought to succeed. Now self-respecting pride is a good thing. A man is manlier and better for refusing to associate with, aud, insofar as that is possible, to so place himself ou an equality with mean and debased people. But if the col ored people are mean and base, then a community should bavea care that in straining at the gnat of eauality they do not swallow the camel of inferiority. Nothing is so debasing to its perpetrator as is injustice. Nothing so puts one man beneath another, or one portion of a community below another portion, as for that one to act unjustly towards that other. It is unjust for tho blacks to pay taxes to support white schools. Either the taxes of the blacks must go towards keeping up their own schools, or they should not be taxed at all, or what is best and most reasonable, they should both be taxed to keep up a common fund. Where it is possible, as it is here in Terre Haute, the schools should be separate. Where it is not, as in Sullivan county, as set forth by the petition of Mr. Bass, then colored children should be admitted to the same schools with the whites. A fine opportunity would thus be given the white children to show the superiority of the Caucasian over the nigrotian in the matter of brains.
THE following sublime and beautiful language was invented by the heavy man of the New York World, and published in the columns of that paper on November 10th:
A great deal ot political fog was blown away on Tuesday last, and several things rise into view with the distinctness of granite mountains in a clear atmosphere. 1. The Democratic party stands, like the storm-beaten peak of Mount Washington, rock-rooted in the crust of the earth and buttressed with eternal hills, still lilting its hoary summit into the sky after clouds have hidden it for many days. The war-clouds and the political storms which have obscured the Democracy for a long period oould no more annihilate its principles than concealing thick weather could drive away the mountains which tower in everlasting grandeur, and whose foundations are as deep as the world.
The allusion to the blowing away of the "political fog" is a graceful and fitting tribute to the memory of Wm. Allen, and gives evidence of the enlargement of the sphere of usefulness of the "fog horn." Hitherto, to poets, historians, statesmen, scientists ard navigators the fog horn has been spoken of as the "shrill," the "earpiercing," the "spirit-stirring" fog horn. It was supposed to appeal to the ear only. It revealed the danger wnue it was yet concealed, and warned agaiust iuviBible horrors. Now the aspect of things is changed. The adjectives descriptive of its nature and characteristics are different. It is the "cloud dispelling," "mist annihilating," "fog exterminating" horn. And Wm. Alien is this newfangled brass or tin instrument, the pealing notes of which falling on the startled ear, arouse attention and direct the eye to dangers, the fogs con
cealing
land
which have been scattered to
the four corners of the globe by winds from the same beneficent source. In conclusion, lest the thousands of Democratic readers whloh the GAZETTE baB hereabouts, and in whose good graces it proposes to keep until It shall lead them Into the promised
of free, untrammeled and independent thought, should suppose that the World has a higher opinion of the aucient principles of the Democratic party than the GAZETTE, we wish to say that, deliberating lately cu the results of the elections, we had come to the same conclusion as the World, and would undoubtedly have expressed curselves in precisely the same language, but for the fact that one of our route boys was taken sick with the measles, and while we were carrying his papers the World got ahead ot us. That, and that alone, prevented the Democratic party from being "buttressed" with the "eternal Strawberry Hill" instead of the palisades.
THE Journal is misinformed as to the issues on which the Democracy won in the late election in Virginia. We are rejoiced to learn this. When our venerable cotemporary hunted out from the obscurity of a neglected corner of its office its ancient rooster, and placed him at the head of its columns, to crow and make gladsome noises over the news from Virginia, knowing the purport of that news, and understanding what Democracy there meant, we said unto ourselves:
Here now is a yawning chasm of opinion between us, too wide ever to clasp hands over." Since, however, the Journal was ignorant of the purport of the election, its sin is not unpardonable, though in future we would caution our venerable cotemporary to be more circumspect and deliberate in its actions. Some time or other, unless it is more circumspect, deceived by the word Democratic, it will have the same rooster crowing at one and the same time over the victory in one section of the Union, and defeat in another, of one political doctrine. This is not healthy

On to Cuba.
Reasons for a war with Spain are as plenty as blackberries. An enumeration of them, we are certain, can but end in a declaration of war. With that purpose and Intention we therefore refer to them: 1. An ancient tenet of Democratic faith was that members of that organization were not only in favor of any war that might be going on then, but of the next and the next. This is the opportunity for the second next —the rebellion was the first—which should not be heedlessly passed by. Am«ng the believers in the above doctrine were many of the middleaged and old men of today. Thousands of high-spirited youths throughout the land, are sons of sires who held the same view?. Consistency, therefore, on the part of the elders, and a desire among the youth to honor their parents by inheriting and carrying out a settled conviction, both conspire to make a war .with Spain at the present moment an imperative necessity. 2. Spain is the land of Philip II, and of the auto de fe. These United States have never properly expresbed their indignation at the cruelty of the one and the horrors ot the other.
That
should be attended to at once. It matters not If Philip did commit his outrages sometime before the present generation of Americans began participating in the affairs of this mortal life. People who say that the length of time which has elapsed should save Spain, misunderstand themselves. Our long delay increases now the necessity for speedy action. Every day
only
lengthens th° tim©, as »oyDody ought to see. Moreover, it should not be forgotten that Spain treated Columbus shamefully in bis old age, and we owe to that gentleman a debt of gratitude which we did uot pay when we called this couutry America. Republics ought not to be ungrateful. Now is our chance. 3. The United States owes it to herself aud the cause of freedom to oppose tyranny, and fight the battles of liberty everywhere. Here Is Spain, through the ages a bright and shining example of Republican Government, foremost in progress and the arts, and the first to help the cause of freedom, suddenly revolutionized, and instead of the liberal rule that obtained there, a grasping, grinding monarchy set up, with the usurping tyrant and wily foe of the human race, Castelar, at its head. Such government ought to be rebuked, at once, by our great and free nation No time is so good as the present, when the cold-blooded villian Castelar is plotting against freedom and its champions, Don Carlos and Isabella. It is said this man, Castelar, has been taking steps to alter the beneficeut rule of the Old Spain in Cuba. His machinations in this direction should be stopped. We have the advantage of him now that his tyrannical rule is beset by foes without and foes within the kingdom, and ought to keep it. There is no doubt whatever that the taking of the Virginius is in accordance with a deep and devilish plot he has been developing for mouths, and that he and the kindred devils of bis Cabinet are now laughing with fiendish joy over it. The United States ought to exact swift and terrible vengeance. If we can catch this Castellar on the hip^iow, we can strike a death blow to tyranuy in Europe. Shall we prove recreant to Freedom Forbid it, Ac. On to Cuba! 4. Anybody who wants to,can fit out a ship in American harbors, equip it for war, loau it with arms and munitions of war, and soldiers, and flinging the American flag from the mast head, cruise around anywhere and do anything it pleases. Woe to the miuions of an effete monarchy that dare to lift a finger against an Amer
ican cuizeu out un uu excursion lor
"bullud and plunder." There are rights pertaining to American citizenship which can only be maintain ed by crushing Spain. 5. Slavery exists in Cuba. A war with Cuba would liberate the slaves. We abolished slavery ages ago, because it was repugnant to our Ideas of right,and we cannot permit slaves to breathe the air of this free western world. The last is peculiarly a Dem ooratic reason. 6. The annexation of Cuba, which is our real design, would be speedily followed by the rest of the West In dia Islands. We should then have coaling ports for our merchant ma rine, and be able to wipe out the national debt, which we yet have through a stupid failure to autiex Santo Domingo. Tobacco would di minish in price so much that we could reduce the President's salary and the rest of Amerioans live in hopes of smoking some time a genuine Havana.
There is a 7th reason, or rather whole swarm of reasons, to be found in the following remarks made by a prominent na^al official in New York, yesterday, as reported in the dispatches. We are not apprised whether it was Mr. Leet, or Stocking, or Murphy. It is worthy of all three. They are: Our navy has not a very high reputatiou for strength but we are ready at any moment to engage the Spanish navy. We can fit out a fleet large enough and strong enough" —and he might have added costly enough—"to meet any that will be brought agaiust us. We can land troops in Cuba and In Spain. We need a little fighting to show us where our weakness is"—the panic has not done it—"and to instruct us how best to increase our strength. It is shameful that we cannot boast a better navy, and nothing could be better for us at the present time than a conflict." The patient reader will discover that our official concludes that we are ready at any moment to fight Spain, because our navy has not a very high reputation for strength, and because we can fit out a fleet and land troops in Spain. Persons ready to fight ought to fight The idea of starting a war because we need a little fighting to show us where our weakness is, Is not altogether unlike the notion of the Irishman with only one match, who lit it to see if it was good. Tbe idea of a great nation not knowing where its weakness is, and that, too, when a paltry war is all that is necessary to show it, is too hard to bear. On to Cuba I 8. Thousands of laborers are being thrown out of employment through the stagnation of business, and a period of disastrous quiet We want war to give employmenttoour starving people. Government owes it to its people to give them employment and food and clothing. A war with Cuba Is tbe things

Similarity la the Style of Fosdeck and Wallace. A literary coincidence is what the Indianapolis Journal, editorially, Characterizes the similarity style of Mr. W. W. Foedick, author of Malmistie, tbe Tolteo and «the Cavaliers of the Cross, and General Lew Wallace, author of the Fair God. And tbe Journal quotes from both books, editorially expressing tbe opinion that the charge of plagiarism against General Wallace is unjust. As a very remarkable literary co-incidence, we copy tbe extracts appearing in the Journal and referred to. This from Fosdick's book: "At length, after having made tbe circuit of tbe city, they [Malmistic and Tecalco, Montezuma's daughter] entered one of the palaces near the spot where they had first descended into this shadowy realm. Here a sight burst upon her [Tecalco] vision, which made tbe gorgeous bails of her father,
Montezuma, seem naked aud poor. The floor of tbe magnificent chamber which they entered was of many-col-ored marbles in mosaic work, and these were flowered with hundreds of diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires and other gems, which were set in the recesses ot marble with the most delicate and exquisite workmanship, and arranged in the most beautiful forms, figures and shapes which imagination could invent. Around the spacious apartment were hung upon tbe walls
pai .... lctures of wondrous beauty and bnlwhose design, execution and1 coloring were of surpassing merit They were set in frames of solid gold, and ornamented upon the margin with a border of jewels. Upon the ceiling were groups of exquisitely painted figures, and scenes portraying an ideal paradise, while all around the apartment stood statues of the most inimitable sculpturing, representing almost every actual or imaginary form of beauty, while in all parts of the groat chamber, in niches upon pedestals, and even ranged upon the floors, were vases and urns of the rarest carving, roost elegant proportion and brilliant colors, from a snowy, transparent alabaster tobrightidyes ot gold and azure, and stains of deepest crimson."
Liancy.
And this from the Fair God of Gen. Wallace: "The obstruction of many pillars, forming the stay of the roof, was compensated by their lightness and wonderful carving. Lamps, lit by Mualox In anticipation ol the royal coming, blazed in all quarters. Tbe ceiling was carved with lattice work of shining white and yellow metals, the precious ness of which was palpable to eyes accustomed like tbe monarch's. Where the bars crossed each other, there were fanciful representations of flowers, wrought in gold, some of them large as shields, and garnished with jewels that burned with star-like fires. Between the columns, up and down, ran rows of brazen tables, bearing urns and vases ot the royal metals, higher than tall men, and carved all over with gold in bat relief, not as hideous caricatures, but beautiful as Grecian skill oould make them. Between the vases and urns there were heaps of rubies and pearls, and brilliants, among which looked out soft' ly the familiar, pale green Ins tre of the ohalchintes, or priceless Aztecan diamond. And here and there, like guardians of the buried beauty and treasure, statues looked down from tall pedestals crowned and armed, as became tbe kings and demigods of a great and martial people The monarch was speechless,
4
And he led the King, followed by Guatamozln, to th9 northern corner of tbe eastern wall, on which in square markle panels, oas relief style, were hierograms and sculptured pictures of men, executed apparently by the same hand that chiseled tbe statues in the room."
The Journal accounts for this sim ilarity of style on the ground that Wallace read and admired Fosdick's work, and when he came to write on the same subject, unconsciously imi tated in style, so to speak.
Since the above was prepared for publication, the Journal learns and announces authoritatively that "The Fair God" was written at least two years before Fosdick's book was published, and was read in 1849 by General Wallace's brother, William Wallace of this city, and by other members of the family. The book was at that time complete in nearly all its parts, though it afterwards underwent some slight changes by the author. Not only was General Wallace's book thus written at least two or three years before Fosdick's was published, but he states that he never read Fosdick's book, never saw it, and never even heard of it till recently.
In view of tbe statement that Gen. Wallace never saw Fosdick's book,
onH novor haor/1 r# lk rit*Ml
the coincidence is all the more remarkable!
Onr Case Against Spain. If the people of the United States have deliberately come to the conclusion that they want Cuba, .the best thing for them to do is to say so. A polite but firm note should be gent to Spain announcing that desire, and giving to "that power the alternative of graciously and peacefully delivering possession of tbe "Queen of tbe Antilles or losing her after a disastrous war. Spain would probably give her up without a struggle but if she did not, then we could whip her first and take Cuba in spite of her afterwards.
There are many reasons why Cuba would be a desirable addition to our territory there are very- many reasons why she should not be. We do not purpose hero to enumerate them. We shall assume that the majority of people have decided in favor of annexing Cuba. What shall be done? Certainly just what has been said above. Candor is a good thing, in nations as in individuals. That courtesy which obtaius between tbe highest and lowliest of nations
should
be shown. Spain should be
told frankly that we have concluded to aunex Cuba, and be given the alternative of delivering possession peaceably or forcibly.
A decent highway robber always gives choice to his midnight acquaintances of giving up their money and keeping their brains, or losing both. We trust that outlaws shall not surpass our glorious country in courtesy
But what we insist on is that our real intentions shall be openly avowed. We are certainly big and strong enough to leave off lying, which is essentially a vice of a coward. If we shall go to war witb spain now it will be because we want Cuba, and we insist that we ought so say so. There is no reason for fighting because of this Virginius affair. Of course we can swagger and fret about tbe insult to our flag and the rights of American citizens,but it is all swagger and wind, and deceives no one as to our real purpose, which Is annexation.
Tbe wolf in the fable thought he was playing a wonderfully sharp game, and justifying himself in tbe eyes of God and man, if indeed be was not proving himself to be an injured innocent, when he ate up the lamb wading in the stream below him, for muddying the water which he drank. In vain tbe lamb protested that it was impossible that his wolfship oould be iqjured, since he—the lamb—was down the stream, and tbe muddied water flowed from, and not towards him. Tbe wolf ate him, as we are ready to admit he bad a^perfect right to do, but everlastingly damned himself, not only in the eyes of the lamb whom be ate, but of Al} other food and honest lambs, or
%,.k
brave and truthful wolves, by the cowardly and unnecessary lie. If he bad told the lamb that he was hungry, that he was fond of lamb, that he was tbe stronger, and that, therefore, be might have just five minutes to piepare for deatb, tbe lamb would have admired his candor while he regretted his appetite. To be lied to and then eaten, is to have insult heaped on injury.
There is about as much reason for our going to war with Spain now about this Virginius affair as^tbere was in tbe wolf eating the lamb because of tbe muddy water. The whole history of this ship Virginius is redolent of illegality. Built in '64 on tbe Clyde, she was a blockade runner. Captured at Mobile she was sold by tbe Government. In 1870 she was bought by tbe Cubans in New York and fitted up for a cruiser, the purpose being to land men and supplies upon the insurgent island. In 1871 General Raphael Quesada— people will find it hard to make that name American—used tbe vessel in landing an expedition near Santiago de Cuba. Continually used in the service of the Cuban rebels, in 1871 eli? landed another expedition. She was engaged in taking arms, amunitioD, horses and men to Cuba, for tbe purpose of continuing the rebellion against tbe lawful authority of Spain when she was taken.
That the Virginius, in her marauding expeditions, was in the babit of flying the American flag, only shows to what base uses that piece of bunting may be put. If the Virginius was an Amcrlcau ship, entitled to fly tbe American 11 and claim protection thereunder, then she should obey the laws of that country, one of which is that Americans shall not wage war in the interests of any faction against nations at peace with the United States. Spain and the United States are at peace. In a colony of 8pain's there is au insurrection, the cause whereof, whether good or bad, is none of our business. The only governments in Cuba is that of Spain. No balligerent rights have been granted the rebels by the United States, for the very best of all reasons, viz.: that there is nothing to recognize. When, therefore, this ship, owned by friends of tbe rebels in this country, is fitted out as cruizer to pry upon Spanish Com merce and aid a rebellion against Spain she does it at her peril.
The United States should never have permitted the Virginius to leave the country bent upon expeditions of the kind she has been en gaged iu. A ship of that kind is not entitled to the protection of the United States. Caught on the high seas she ought to be captured. As to the officers and crew, they were almost without exception Cuban rebels men who had fought against Spain and were going there to fight again W. A. C. Ryan, the most prominent of the two or three Americans in the ship, had fought under Gen. Jordan in Cuba. He commanded tbe rebel cavalry for a year, He received the title of General, while in Cuba. He was going back to fight. Captured on tbe Virginius, he was a Spanish prisoner and as such should have been treated. Perhaps he ought not to have been shot. Xt'is a bad thing to shoot prisoners. That Ryan happened to have been born in tbe Uuited States, how ever, does not help his case, or make his shooting any the worse. If an American citizen goes gallivanting over the world fighting agaiust constitQted authority with any crowd of rebels into whose company be may fall, he must look out for bis neck. The United States will take care of its own citizens at home or abroad, when they behave themselves. When they raise a rookery here, we hang or imprison

abroad, they must stand the penalty. Once for all it should be understood, that filibusters carry on their trade at their own risk.
TOM ALLEN, tbe pugilist, is a rough fello.w. Of course,a man who can put out his left fist faster and harder than a mule can kick, must necessarily be rough, but Tom has a kindly and gentle heart, apparently, for, when he heard that Joe Coburn was in tbe babit of beating his wife, he challenged him. He said be knew he could whip any man who was mean enough to whip bis wife. As is well known, the GAZETTE is not in favor of a comprehensive form of government, one of those kind which regulates everything, but we put it to the conscience of the Council and Commissioners if it would not be a good thing to invite tbe generous and chivalrous pugilist over here. There are a few professional wife-beaters here in town, and some worthless scamps are running off and abandoning their wives aud families at tbe approach of winter and hard times Our muscular Christian might give these graceless wretches a touching lesson one which they should member feelingly.

It is a great pity that, inasmuch as tbe city is so soon to undergo the expense of sewerage and market house improvements, it cannot be done now, while work is wanted and really needed by those who are out of employment on account of the bard jl:,,

Description of the Way the Cooke's and Heads of Bureaus Hade It Pay at Uncle Samuel's Expense, Editors Evening Gazette
The following may interest your readers at tbe present time: I was in the Comptroller's office of tbe Treasury Department, at Washington, in 1873. J.' Cooke & Co., actiug agents of the Government for the sale of 5 20 bonds, rendered monthly accounts of sales, and their accounts passed through my hands.
The management was to allow them
one-eighth
of one per cent, on
on all the sales. Sub agents were also allowed one-eighth per cent, and J. C. A Co. were to charge tbe cost of advertising.
One monthly account was rendered of sales to an enormous amount, and they bad charged In them three separate items—three-eighths per cent, on tbe whole amount. One-eighth for themselves, one-eighth for tbe agent, and one-eighth for advertising. I knew that sab agents had not made all the sales, and I did not think the advertising amounted to Just oneeighth per cent., hence their account was protested..
At the bead of the Redemption Bureau was a clerk from Ohio. Apart of his businem was to receive and dentroy defaced currency. The department has adopted a system deemed flleient to prevent fraud. When a
package of redeemed currency came from any Sub-Treasuries, sealed, and the amount it contained marked on it, a bill of the amount caitte a!ao at the same time. The rule W»a to cut the entire package thrdugh lengthways, thus cutting MM practically destroying or rendering all tbe bills it contained, of no value. One-half the package was then sent to Chase's room and the other half to Spinner's. The bills of each were counted by tbe clerks of the two offices, certified to if correct, and returned to the Redemption Bureau. After an amount had accumulated, two men were appointed to act in concert with the head of the bureau and barn tbe packages, and then the proper entry would be made. So much currency destroyed.
These men who superintended the burning did not recount the money, but simply accounted for the amount certified to on the packages. This clerk, head of the bureau, was in the habit, after tbe cut packages were counted and returned, of taking out an equal number of the out bills from each half, and when another package came, before cutting, he would take out au equal amount of the uncut bills, put tbe cut ones from the other package in their place, cut tbe balance and send them to the offices, where they would be found correct, certified to, and returned. This thing bad been going on until tbe clerk baa become a little careless, and a messenger boy saw bim, ou "one occasion, put money in his pocket under suspicious circumstances, reported, a detective was set to watch, and he was soon caught. to watch, and be was soon caugnt. He had been occasionally buying 5-20 bonds, representing that friends in Ohio were sending bim money for that purpose, thus making him a subagent. And the day before he was arrested he went to Jay Cooke A Co., aud drew bis per cent, commission on tbe purchase of United States bonds, with United States money he had stolen. I have always looked upon him as a model business man, promptly taking care of all that was due him. TEXAS.

Working People Want W(rk and Not Free Soap. .» Editors Evening Gazette:
Being desirous of seeiug some plan adopted looking to the relief of the laboring meu of Terre Haute, who have already been thrown out of employment, and others who may suffer the same fate, if the panic continues, I would like, through the GAZETTE, to suggest a plan that would undoubtedly aid them to get through tbe hard winter that is before us, and obviate a great deal of suffering that must necessarily exist if there be not something done for their relief. There area number of streets in the city that will require a good deal of worknext

est. A large portion of this work could be done this winter, when the weather is good. Now, if the city fathers would issue say $26,000 iu script, oar laboring men, who will otherwise be idle, could be given work a portion of tbe time, and thus tbey would be enabled to furnish their families with tbe necessaries of life until business revives again. This scrip would be good for taxes at all times, and no doubt, every business man in tbe city would take it at par in exchange for goods. It should under the circumstances, pass as cur rent as greenbacks. The Council could not do a more praiseworthy act, aud I believe every citizen of Terre Haute would uphold them.
If anything of tbe kind is done, it should be exclusively for tbe benefit of our own citizens, and every precaution taken to guard against im position.
Let there be a committee of the Council appointed whose duty it shall be to employ men and place tbem under tbe supervision of tbe Street Commissioner, and let this committee appoint sub-committees among the laboring men, whose duty it shal be to report to tbe Council Committee as to whether applicants for work are bona fide residents of the city. Something must be done, for our people must have work. Do not establish "soup-bouses for dead-beats," but give working-men work. I ven ture tbe assertion that there Is not a working man in Terre Haute who would not prefer to work at a dollar a day, to going to a "soup-house" to eat. If they cannot be given steady employment, give them three days in the week for, as soldiers used to say, "one 'bard-tack' a day is better than none at all." CITIZEN.

It is a very astonishing thing that Joseph Parsons has.those little but interesting pamphlets, distributing them through tbe city and country around, and even out of tbe State and into Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Ohio, and manj other places, without anyone saying anything against it. This pamphlet has been bought and read by tbe largest por tion of the leading citizens of this city, such as clergymen of various denominations, doctors, lawyers Judges, Generals, and Colonels, ant all other classes of people, both rich poor. This little pamphlet is surely tbe roost intqj-esting little thing that ever crossed a Protestant's eye, especially clergymen. The very law that he has taken to provo this Protestant clergyman to be a counterfeit miuis ter, proves all other Protestant min Is'.er to be the same that are married, and have the cares of a wife al though It seems as if they have a hole through which they cau creep out, in the third chapter and second verse of Timothy, if they were not too cowardly and lazy to attempt It. Joseph Parsons has gone on to prove that no church except tbe Catholic Churcb, is tbe
Kingdom of God. He
proves by the Prophet, Daniel, second chapter and forty-second verseL where he *ays in those days ehall the God of Heaven set up a kingdom that should break into pieces and consume all the kingdoms of the earth. We would like for the old maa to show us If thofe pieces were not churches, and we would like for him also to t-liow why this law in Timothy, third chapter aud second verse, are not as liable to be the true law as well as the other law, that he has shown to be true.

She Sat Down on those Splinters. Common lea ted. Sunday morning a sewing girl, in in tbe employ of Mrs. John Smith, residing on North Twelfth street, met witb a serious accident. She has been in the babit of using tbe Sunday Express as a bustle. Last Sunday, tbe carrier was late, and the family h*d barely time to glance through its columns before the"belp" claimed her natural and indispensa4e right. After hastily adjusting it in tbe proper shape, and at the proper place, she sat down to lace her gaiters. She immediately gave such a scream as alarmed the whole neighborhood, and brought Mrs. Smith to Iter aid at once. That good lady found her running around tbe room, and tugging at the baslie. Mrs. Smith soon extracted it, and upon examining It, fouud. that tbe girl had, in the harry of tbe moment, failed to cut out the Marshall Splinters column, and, as the girl expressed it, "tbey were so all-fired sharp she thought tbey were agoing to run through her." Tbe ladies in the neighborhood did all in their power to alleviate her sufferings, and soon bad her in a tolerable comfortable situation. Her lover passed all of Sunday night in debating whether to sue tbe Express, or go to Marshall and "cbivari," whatever that means, the bull, and as we T»w him this morning loading a flat ear with amanition, and a small howitzer, we suppose be is going to pursue the latter course of revenge.

They were all marched to the slaughter bouse wall and placed before the firing party bv tens. As fast as one ten iell another ten were marched up and their dead bodies fell on those already
Blaiu.
Intense excitement prevails here over the latest Cuban news received. Although tbe dispatch is a private one, it is reliable, and is not doubted.
The Herald agaiu takes up tbe question of the Virginius outrage and accuses Secretary Fish of truckling and forgetting tbe country's houor in bis own weakness. It tbinfcs that the redress for the outrage ought to include tbe full surreuder of the culprits who committed the deeds, or the city of Santiago de Cuba ought to be laid in ashes. It commends tbe prompt measures being taken in the navy, but severely denounces Fish's hesitation. It trubts to tbe President to deal vigorously with the Spaniards in Cuba, and put an end to this bloody, barbarous struggle.
NEW YORK, NOV. 15.—The following are the names of tbe officers and crew of the Virginius, executed at Santiago on the 7th of November: Captain, Joseph Fry: First Mate, Wm.

Dispatches received here to-day via Jamaica, state that a. horrible outrage has been perpetrated ou some women near Santiago deCuba. Some four or five years ago a Grand Lodge of Masons met there, and numbers were arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to deatb. They were executed, their estates confiscated, and their widows and childreu left penniless. But they were all forbidden to leave the Territory, and they lived near the city. On tbe night of tbe 7tb of this month they were visited by a party of volunteers and outraged. Theresuit of this terrible crime was that four of these women were either killed outright or died a few hours afterwards. «_,,
COLUMBUS, NOV. 15.—The passenger train from here this morning, on the Mobile & Ohio Railroad, was thrown from the track when two miles out aud the baggage car and second-class coach were turned over iuto the ditch, the first-class car ran entirely off and the forward end of one of the sleepers also. Nobody was seriously hurt. One passenger bad bis head badly cut. The accident was clearly the result of criminal nelect, tbe cause being a broken rail 'weuty places witbin half a mile of the present one have just the same liability to a similar accident.
TORONTO, Nov. 15.—Yesterday afternoon, while four meu were at work ou a new churcb at Ricliesterville, it suddenly fell, instantly killing two, fatally Injuring one, and seriously wounding the other.
LONDON, NOV.15.—Qeotgb irdon, the celebrated a.tor, is dead. PARIS, NOV. 15.—The situation at Versailles is critical. A violent Parliamentary rupture is imminent.
LONDON, NOV. 17.—The latest advices received by the Government from the Ashantee expedition, under Commander-in-Chief Wolesiy, in Africa, states that the British troops have advanced twenty miles from Elmina, one of tbe largest forts on tbe coast. The Asbaatees have been defeated witb great loss in killed and wounded, and five of their villages were burned. They are retreating on tbe river Prab. The expedition has, thus far, been most successful.
LONDON, NOV. 17.—Later advices from tbe Ashantee expedition in Africa states that the British, under Sir Garrett Waisey, have cut off the retreat of the Ashantees on the Prah river, and made many of tbem jrisoners. It is expected that the ate active forward movement of tbe British troops will result iu the capture of nearly tbe entire Ashantee army.
NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—The Times' special form Havana, 16lh, gives the following account of the capture of the Virginius: The Tornado, which was cruising on tbe 31st of October, uuder sail, about eighteen miles from tbe Cuba coast, in tbe afternoon, sighted the steamer about six miles dlstant,headiug toward her. Her Captain at once ordered steam to be got up, and observed that tbe strange steamer had altered ber course, and headed for the coast of Jamaica, distant about one hundred miles. The Spanish Captain at once suspected from this unusual proceeding that tbe steamer was the Virginius. He ordered steam got up in all the engines if they bur»t the boilers, and to driye the engines at their utmost upeed. Tbe Tornado under full beadway, showed such speed that it was clear that in a long cbase she would certainly overhaul the stranger. She

Leopold
Tansr, A. Arel, John Stewart,Harry Bond, George Thompson, James Samuels, Henry Frank, James Bead. The morning papers comment bitterly on the bloody climax of the Virginius affair, as indicated by yesterday's dispatches.
The Herald says that we have nothing to do with the Cubaus, or their cause, tneir right*, or wrongs. The insult is to our uation that the murders have been committed on our citizens or on foreigners under the protection of our flag. A long list or the Spaui-h outrage In Cuba springs up to iutensify our auger aud justify the conviction that Madrid has no longer auy power over the Casino Aspanola, aud that the punishment is due to their 6rimes, must be visited on their own guilty heads. We have no desire to provoke war with Spain we believe there will be no war, for the Republicans at Madrid have our sympathy and will not be likely to go to war to defend an act they admit to have been unjustifiable. A sufficient force of Iron-clads at Santiago must demand the return of the Virginius, the release of the survivors, aud the surrender of the coast and also of Burriel. If these demands are not complied with, the destruction of the blood-stained town should follow. The atonement will not be too heavy.

gained steadily, but as night coming on, the Spanish captain feared that he should lose sight of tbe vessel. The moon was rising, bowever, and be was enabled, by keeping all hands on deck at the masthead and in the rigging to keep a sharp lookout, to keep tbe steamer in sight, until the corvette had neared sufficiently to bring her guns to bear on her. The scene on the deck of tho Spaniard was one of iutense excitement as the fugitive steamer—for it was now quite evident that, for whatever reason, she was very anxious to escape—was observed to throw her cargo overboard, and empty boxes and other material floated past the Spaniard A shot was fired, but the stranger made no reply, and four others fired in succession. Tbe last shot was fired at 10 o'clock P. M., and Immediately the steamer which had led. the corvette a chase of nearly eight hours,hove to. Two boats wero lowered and manned, and pulled, alongside. Tbey met no resistance in boarding the steamer, which they had now discovered beyond a doubt, to be the Virginius. They took possession of her by hauling down the American flag which the Virginius. bad displayed throughout the chase, and hoisted the Spanish flag instead. Captain Frye, of the Virginius iu his usual mauner handed over, steamer'spapers for the examination of the .officer in command of the boarding party and that officer at once took charge of them and both vessels headed for Santiago de Cuba, and on the 1st of November, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, they arrived at Santiago de Cuba. Proceedings were immediately begun against the captives as pirates, and, notwithstanding the protest of the U. S.Vice Consul at that port, were condemued aud on the morning of the 4th of November, four were shot. A naval court martial was then organized for the trial of Capt. Frye and the crew of the Virginius. They were of course condemned, after tbe most expeditious trial, and on the 7ih the Captain, first mate, second mate and thirty-four seamen were shot. On the 8th twelve of the so-called expeditionists were shot, and on tbe 10th fifty-seven more were put to death. Tbe latest report from Santiago de Cuba Is that only 18 of the eutire ship's company, consisting origiually of 169, will be saved. Some of these are engineers, and it is assumed that tbey were not aware of the nature cf the voyage, and others wero sailors. Ouly four, it is now stated, will escape without suffering some form of punishment, aud the remainder of those not shot: will be coudemned to the chaiu gaug.
NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—'There was an unusual large attendance at the Plymouth Church, last evening and the scenes during that partof the sermon, in which Beecher alluded to the recent butchery iu the Island of Cuba, forcibly reminded one of the old times before the war with the South, when Beecher's voice so often raised agaiust the slave holding power in that section, when bespoke of the long and heroic struggle of a little band of Cuban patriots that bad so persevere!ugly ravished all the force that Spain could bring against them, and said that such heroism deserves, at least, a recognition. The enthusiasm of the audieuce could no longer be .restrained, and they broke forth in along continued burst of applause, the ladies waiving handkerchiefs, aud appearing as earnest as meu. Again, when Beecher hoped that this Government would proceed in the matter with all moderation, and that nothing would be done rashly, but that, after a tempered appeal to Spain for justice is made, and that nation ahould fail to punish the authors of these cruelties, or if it should appear that she lacked force to do so, then, said Beecher, solemnly, "let the Justice of this nation fall." The enthusiasm of the audience broke afresh and, regardlesn of the time or place, their hearty applause showed now much they were In sympathy with the speaker.
NEW. YORK, Nov. 17.—The meeting of citizens at Steiuway Hall, tonight, to protest agaiust the barbarous massrere of the captives of the Virginiuv, will be an immense alfair. Gen. N. P. Banks, 8. S. Cox and H. W. Beecher are among the orators of the occasion.
A special from Newport, R. I., says the sloop of war,* Ossipee, sailed at noon, on Sunday, from the torpedo, station, for Hampton Rciads, She. took on board a large number of torpedoes with all possible dispatch, and the work was completed Saturdaynight. Great activity was noticed at Torpedo Station, and a number more war vessels are expected immediately for Ifee purpose of taking on board torpedos word having been received to this etlect from Secretary Boberson.
