WASHINGTON, June "a, 1913.
Prince The Utica Demonstrafiom-Hs Effect
in Washington-Ihe Clay Wh,gs talking also of
Rebellion IN the same ioay.
Prince John is the lion of the day. Prince John
has done the business Prince John is one Of the
remarkable men of the times. He has galvanized
the old man, his distinguished sire, into active
vitality. The sage of Lindenwald, believed to be
politically dead, is terminated; and, like the ghost
of Banquo, stands up with his sepulchral dignity
and his spectral voice, confronting the regular
nominees calling the clans of the barnbumers to
resistance, and challenging the admiration of this
world, and of all the satellites of the solar system.
The nomination of Martin Van Buren, by the
barnburners at Utica, and his supposed acquies-
cence thereto, have awakened a mighty strong
Indignation in this deestrict," where everything,
even to the rising of the sun and the going down
thereof, is believed to depend upon the regular
ticket
The Chief Priest of the Executive oralce,
his EXcelIency Senior Don Thomas Richie,
bememerto de Ia party Is COMPOUNDED and perplexed
gentlemen; in the name Of God, what is to be done!
This ls horrld business. And Martin Van Bu-
ren-that Northern man with Southern principles !
Great God, what ingratitude to the Democratic
lead HIM about by the nose like child. Why, the
man is In his dotage, or he is just showing his
coven hoof-Ciod d-n him." Such are some
Of the regular ticket execrations of the Utica do
ings. Such are some. of the specimens of the
harmony of the harmonious democracy.
So much for the Wilmot proviso and the noise
at Cleveland.
And the mischief does not stop here. The Clay
wings begin to prick up their ears, Just parcel
of mules do when they smell water in the desert
The Clay wings, selzing the contagion, are begin
ming to chew the cud of rebellion, rolling it, like a
sweet morsel under their tongues. The Clay wings
begin to talk of Northern Convention for the no.
mination of Henry Clay.
Let's have it--let's have Henry Clay and Martin
Van Buren, again in the field. The revolutionary
epidemic has crossed the sea. and come back to
Us with a heavy rebound. Old organizations, like
the leaning towers of the European systems, have
lost their centres of gravity, and they'll have to
fall. Old party shackles are rafting to the earth
all around us. The ipse dirit of convention
won't pass muster. The thing is out of date. Par
ty editors have lost the faculty of fastening the
handouts upon the rank and file. The idea is ex-
ploded. The sovereigns can do just as they please
No man is bound to vote for Cass. No man is sold
beyond recall to the Philadelphia convention
Every elector Is free to vote his own ticket Good
Methinks there will be six Richmond's in the field
Better still. The more the merrier. Let's make
scrub race ofit-every man riding his own horse.
Stars alive but there is fun ahead.

4 NEW LAKE CRAFT.-A vessel is building at
Detro ii which IS described in the Detroit Com. Bu
ictin as follows The superstructure rests upon
two floats or trunks, placed 70 fee! apart, which
are 50 feet in length 3 feet wide and feet deep.
Upon these floats iron posts feet high are placed
and securely strengthened and braced across from
one side to the other, making the lower part look
like iron lattice work. Upon this rests the deck,
to be propelled 10y iwo engines of 30 horse power
each, built at the foundry of Mr.. S. N Kendrick
in the locomotive style, which act upon wheel l6
feet in diameter, placed in the stern of the sfruc-
ture, and midway between thefoats. 1t is intend
ed to run, il successful, between Port Huron and
Toledo; and it is confidently anticipated that this
distance will be accomplished il. about five hours
running time.

understand communication was received by the
President last night from the United States Consul
at Havana, stating that an instruction of formi-
dable character was antici paed in few days. in the
Island of Cuba, from the rising of the liberal
evolutionary party, and representing the unprotected
state of American property there. 10 consequence
of this intelligence, an order has been despatched
to Gulf squadron, directing portion of II to be
sent to the Island of Cuba to protect and look after
our interests there. From the published accounts
OF affairs in that island, there was every reason to
anticipate such movement as the Counsel feared
was about to take place.
The classic fields of Bladensburg are becoming
quite fashionable places of resort for swans whose
mistresses have proved wicked. Another affair

between Mr.. W-k, clerk in one of the public
offices, aud Mr.. -. The cause-love. The i'm
mediate cause.-the preference by the "ladie fare
of the latter gentleman-the mltten having in
consequence. been politely handed to the former.
But he, u0wlse inclined thus calmly to submit
to his fate challenged his successful rival TO NOR
tai combat M =, happy IN the smiles Of her
boiled when Mr.. W-k exclaimed
Boy, this shall not excuse the injuries
That thou hast done me; therefore turn and draw -
and he accepted the glove, thus rudely thrown
down. The seconds were chosen; and, as | be-
fore said, they yesterday repaired TO Bladensburg,
where, having posted their men, with all the cool
! ness for which Sc conds, from time imncmorial,
are celebrated, they allowed the two to blaze away
at each other. After a WHILE Mr.. - received,
in addition to the injury his heart had previously
felt, wound in his arm. Still nothing could cool
his courage, which was deep, dire, and danlnablc
till at last the seconds, who were by this time
hungry, bethought themselves of the happy expe-
that one or, we believe, both OF the principals got
slightly inebriated, to render perpendicular
position inconvenient, not to say impossible ; and
the whole party thereupon returned to this city.

been decided on The particulars of which will

WASHINGTON, June "a, 1915


The beautiful sword spoken of in the Herald s
present from the citizens of Charleston, including
the ladies', was presented to Lieutenant Colonel
Fremont for his extraordinary services to the
country in Oregon and in California.
A word of explanation is here due to the readers
Of the Herald, in respect of occasional omissions,
tautologss, and other inaccuracies in our CORES
pondence. Our letters are generally written upon
the heels OF the mail, and We seldom read line of
them until they appear in the Herald. We are
often struck with admiration at the sagacty of the
composition in deciphering our almost uninterpre-
table h,eroglyphics. And still we resolve to sim
plify our unintelliglble coligraphy, submitting to
the proof-reader IN cases of evident fractures of
good sense the exercise of a saving discretion.
We wore an old hat at the philadel phia Conven-
ton, simply as a matter of economy. We have a
quaker friend. called Oakford, l04 Chestnut street,
and M Grath, late mayor of Jackson city, across
the Potomac, is with him. They must have seen
our old letter box, for We have received to-day
900 light beaver with the compliments of the
house. We return thanks, and If the establish
ment needed recommendation from would
give 1t. Having several old hats on hand we are
now prepared to bet one of them that William O.
Butler will be the Vice President of the United
States, on the opinion of Honorable John M.
Bolts, that the election will be thrown into the
House, and thence transferred to the Senate, where
the democrats have decided majority
This is private bill day IN the Senate. The Ore
gon bill comes up again on Monday next-together
with the Wmot proviso. Mr. Dix has the
floor, and doubtless he will support the ordinance
of 1877, so decsively as to bring down Mr.. Dickn-
son In support OF the nOn-interference policy of
Gen. Cass. Banbuner Us. Old Hunker. We ex-
pect an interesting debate. HE DoCToR.

themselves with several Spanards of property and
family, and held conference, in all calmness, upon
the critical state of Cuba II agreed that Gov
ernor Roncali should be waited UPON, to the end
that he, taking cognlzance OF the just fears which
sgitated all Its inhabitants, en- account of the
chtnatlons OF England and the crusade (oi annexa-
tion . now being preached IN the Unilad States,
might state In what hight he viewed the matter,
and what was necessary 70 be done to avert the
evils which would inevitably overtake If prepar-
atoms were not made III season. His Excellency
listened with affected moderation to the foregoing
recital, and stated that, being entire stranger
all these meters, he could express no opinion, but
would Immediately communicate with the Court at
Madrid In effect, he did write to the Court but
in style altogether different from what we had
been led to expect. He informed the Government
that there existed In Havana revolutionary plan,
which all the Cubans concurred, as also various
Spanish capitalists, and nearly all the foreigners re-
siding on the Island and that, in order to main
tain Government and guaranty the preservation of
the country, II necessary to grant him unlimlt-
ed powers, since his functions not then sufii-
clent. AS the Government of Spain was alarmed
at this statement, and knew not what was really in
contemplation, all was conceded that was demand
ed by RoncalI. A royal order was transmitted to
him, investing him with all the required powers to
put down the rebels In Havana, without beng
amenabe to any one for his acts What absurdi-
ty! Such powers do not belong to those who have
delegated them, and that which one has mt, he
can hardly give away. This famous royal order
being received, His Excellency sent for the indivi
uuat VINO nau maze the cGfIllnunlcatOn In question:
relative to sbe we-founded fears of the native sons
of the island, aad OF many others who cannot with
out ngrattude behold the late Of Cuba with indif
ference. He displayed the omnous document, and
exclaimed. You can inform those friends of yours
on my part of the reception of this instrument and
warn them, besides, that will order hundred of
them to be shot, and then shall partake of bottle
of champagne. Judge, my friends, of the cond-
ton of these families in this unfortunate city They
all desire to cmigrate but they fear they will rem
der themselves suspected-and no resources for liv-
ing now remain to them in the continual anxiety
of their situation, but forgetting that of our
unucky Hefidia. d" 1t is better to present the daun
less breast to hostile sword than to languish with
pain on couch, and, living, suffer thousand
