THE UNITED STATES LOAN.

We have reason to believe that the reports of the
whole any part Of this loan having been negotiat-
ed at par, are premature. Up to the middle Of last
week. not more than Sl50,000 had been bid for and
it was currently rumored at Washington that the Sc
creary Of the Treasury was arranging commission
TO proceed to England of which his son-in-law Mr..
Marks was TO be member.
We would fam hope that, in matter of such i'm
porance, the competency and character OF the agent
will be fully weighed, and thai shall not have re-
newed occasion to investigate into Treasury Jobs
This, in our opinion, is a matter of very grave i'm
portance-one which directly involves the honor of
the Secretary OF the 1reasury-and yet we state up
on nquesiionabie authority that Mr. Forward insists
that his son-in-aw shall be 6 fifth wheel" to any
commission appointed to negotiate this loan. Gen
tlemen of high character are willing to accept the
appointments but not with this incumbrance.
The above is from the New York Courier and
Enquirer The editor Of that paper having
finished gross assault on the character of Mr..
Marshall, is now seeking another victim
In lhis Instance he as,ails the character Of
Mr.. Marks, simply because he understands
MIR. M. is TO receive an appointment. This IS a
hazardous business. If Mr.. Webb has any eri-
dence of dishonorable conduct on the part of
Mr.. NJ, why does he not give the particulars
In the absence of evidence, the charge as
sumes the aspect Of SANDER. And shall men be
sandered with impunity2 If Mr.. Marks is in
nocent, he should seek his remedy against
Webb Immediately. The law should do him
justice; but if it cannot, then he should take
Justice in his own hands. If he We're to cow
hide Mr.. Webb for slandering him Crowded
there is no remedy in the law would II be a
greater outrage on the rules Of society, than for
MIR, Webb to SANDER private citizen, without
] the least provocation, with impunity

THE STEAM SHIP MISSOURI.

On yesterday, Captain Newton in command
of thi, superb steam-frigate, did the honor Of
his ship, TO distinguished party Of ladies from
the Presidents Mansion, consisting Of the est
mabe and venerable Mrs. Madison, Mrs Ro-
bert Tyler, who presides at the White House,
and many of their accompanying friends both
ladies and gentlemen The day was remarka-
bly, fine, and the whole visit passed off most ad-
mirably. Captain Newton with his body of ac-
complshed officers, certainly deserve TO be
complmented upon the condition in which their
sea palace" is kept, and upon the pollleness
which makes every persons visit TO the vessel
agreeable 10 them.

THE ABoLIrIoNIsTs-THE DEsTRUcTIvEs

THE ABOLITlONISTS-TH DESTRUCTlVES.
We are thoroughly convinced that the wire
workers, who endeavor to get up violent and
bloody scene in Rhode Island, are a band OF
desperate Abolltionists Those who encourage
the commission of outrage against the exist
ing Government, and would drive the matter
pell nell TO bloody issue, are Of the same class
that instigated the slaves on board the Creole to
commit mutiny aud murder These reckless
wrelches do not live in Rhode lsand-they have
nothing at stake there. But, while they keep
out Of danger themselves they are extremely
anxious TO see their dsorganizing principles put
in operation. If they are successful-thal is, if
the ancient Government of the State can be
overthrown by brute force, instead Of the ballot
boxes, then they will next extend their opera
tions 10 the Southern States.
But, the Suffrage Party proper the men who
insist upon certain restrictions being removed
by laipful means, will never be led astray by
these Jacobncal Destructives. They look up
on Earthquake Aliens antics in the Senate with
contempt. They would much rather he should
attend TO his business. These men, who are
conscientious in their desire to have new Con-
stitutlon, II they have majority of the People
on their side, may ultimately, IN peaceabie
and iapfui manner, succeed to the utmost of
their wishes.

RASCALITY.

We published an extract from the Hartford Cou
rant few days ago, under the above head, charging
the Patriot and Eagle, of that city, with suppress
sing the notices of the persons applying for the bene
fit Of the Bankrupt Act, or only publishing them in
few papers. AS the Patriot is the official tbs charge
if true, was sufficient to deprive it of the Govern
ment printing. We pleased to understand, how
ever on the best authority, that there is not word
of truth in the chargethat in fact it is but part of
the system of persecution pursued against the editor
of that paper, Mr. Hobrook, by prohgate political
clique, because of his support Of the present national
administration. We had forgotten the fact that Mr..
Holbrook was the gentleman against whom an UNI
founded charge Of forgery was made by the same
CLIQUE few months ago, Of which not shadow Of
proof ever appeared against him. Had we remem-
bered it. we should never have assented to give pub
city to one which appears to be equally as unbound
ed, and displaying the same degree of malignant
Opposition

LAGuAYRA, March, 1912
DEPARTURE FROM BARBADOS.
On the morning of Monday the 18th March, we
got under way, and with fresh trade wind proceed
ed on our way to Laguayra.
On the next morning passed near the British islana
of Grenada, which high and mountainous; the green
patches of sugar cane IN the valleys and plains to-
gether with the white houses of the planters and
some shipping laying in the bays, formed beautiful
and interesting view.
The next day in sight of some of the
islands off this coast that's the North coast of South
America, and which was formerly designated as the
Spanish Main by the English, and Costa Frme by the
Spanards They are for the most part uninhabited
and not of much account, and we hear but little of
them they high, and can be seen from distance
of thirty or forty miles The island of Marguerite
is the largest and near the Main 1t is forty miles
long, with high mountains in the east and west ends
visible plainly at forty miles while the part Of
the island is low and cannot be seen at half that dis
lance As this is the largest it is likewise the most
important, being inhabi ed and province Of this
government. 1t was rendered notorious during the
revolution, having been two or three times in pos
session of the Patriots and Spanards alternately, and
it was the theatre Of the butcheries Of the bloody
Spanish General Mores who put to death prisoners
and women and children, and the Patriot General in
return retaating although, believe, not in the lat
ter crime. The islands next in progress are the Bro
TIERS Tortugas, Blanquilla, Ochilla, AYES and the
Rocas, all unnhabted with the exception of few
sarakers on the Tortugas.
Then come Buenayre and Curacao, belonging TO
the Dutch. In Buenayre they make great quantity
of salt and Curacao contains handsome town, with
an excellent harbour and well fortified but the peo
pie are poor not having much to trade in but salt
and some goat skins To the westward of Curacao
lies the island Of Aruba, likewise belonging to the
Dutch This island, few years since, was famous for
large masses Of gold said to have been found there
1t caused gold fever to rage in Curacao and many
of the inhabitants went to Aruba to become rich
How the matter terminated never heard, but pre-
sumo like all other golden Visions for even the
remembrance Of it is passing into oblivion
