The FIRE At CLAPPyTLLE, MASs.-Ne have

miles from this place, on the Western Railroad -
The fire took in the attic, and Lad water been at

ploy ed in the establishment the stock was nearly

the insurance at Hartford $4,000 was the stock,
80 that the whole insurance p $4,000 on the build
ing and $4,000 on the stock. The loss on the
bail ling, reckoning it at its cost, will be some
$40 900 or - 900 more than the insurance, but the
present value was probably something less than
cost The building was nearly new, the one which

FROM THE RIO GRANDE.

We have received Brownsville papers to the 18th instant
The principal intelligence they contain relates to the dPeda-
tons of the Indians The farms between the Rio Grande
City and Laredo are generally abandoned letter from
Roma says: ..., IS ........ .5... d..
''On the ODD uimo, the Indians attacked the rancho
Ryanio, few miles above Guerrero, the Texan side OF
the ser where sharp conflict ensued, and three MeIcans
badly wounded The Indians then came down to the
rancho Capanana and drove off all the horses in the rancho
They then went down far Las Laja and there drove
off large number of animals and made good their retreat
The MeIcan it is said, fought very CALAMITY at rancho
| Rivano, and two Indians said to be wounded"
| The Sentinel Of the 18th instant says
By the arrival Of the Hunt from the Rio Grande
City, we learn that Captain Ford of the Rangers has had
three different engagements with the Indians between the Rio
Grande and the Nueces rivers in ech Of which he
torous. Captain Fods command eaid to have killed from
fifteen to eighteen Of these savage and taken prsoner-

The CUBAN ExPEDITIoS.-We have been told that the
arms Of the expedition not distributed until Just before
the landing Cardenas, and instructions whatever were
given the to the Of them. They were partially
supplied with ordinary rifles and portion of them had Jen-
nngss patent rifle to which have alluded newly in
vented weapon. paragraph which published on Mon
day. extracted from the New Orleans Bulletin aludes to the
tremendous execution done by these weapons wronguy
called Jepknss re) the Mexican lancers twenty two out
Of twenty FIVE falling decd.
Many statements have been made since he ,eurn of the
Cuban expedition showing the singular laxiy of discipline
and careessnes Of the commanders 1t appears that thew
counted almost unanimous demonstration of the people
in their favor. The latter gave them reception which
evnced their conviction that the freedom of Cuba was not
the prominent desire of the invaders.
The popretors OF the patent furnished these rifles ss we
informed to meet ORDER without knowing their dest-
nson, though their suspicious awakened and subse-
queny fully confirmed when they heard of the reception
which the frs, squadron Of Spanish sncers received from the
invaders and they have since been informed that although
the had them before and knew nothing Of
their use their execution surpassed any thing recorded
weapons of war.
The wreck Of the expedition scattered about the country
and have already met several Of the returned invaders
looking manfesy the for wear The lesson has after
Ill, no, been without its advantages to this age.

publican institutions, and wel-wsher to the con-
tinuance and prosperity of your Union, for your
own sake as well as for that Of the whole human

have no doubt that he who, as soldier, has never
in forty years. service been headed turned by an
enemy, will, as civilian, come out with equal Gre
dit and good fortune. That he may do so, is my
sincere wish and prayer.
AT the close of the Revolutionary war, then a boy.

Edinburgh when peace was proclaimed, in Februa-
ry 1888, between Great Britain, France, and Spain,
the United States of Holland and the United States

tile was destroyed, in 80; noted the progress Of
France through all its first revolutionary horrors
carried arms at home for eleven years during Ma
poleon's military despotism his first downfall, his
retreat to Elba, his return, his reign Of hundred
days, and his final downfall and extinction on the
18th July, 1915, at Waterloo. question much if
you have subscriber to your paper that can say

Requesting your attention to my request con-
tanned in this and sincerely wishing that your in

GENTLEMEN / cannot refrain from expressing
my gratitude as an American citizen for the noble
and able stand you have taken on the subject OF
the existing and distracting difficulties in which
we are involved, and which, but for you. might
have been much more serious and disastrous. Al
though active and interested politicians can and do
produce excitement and get up meetings, pass re-
solutions, &c., do not believe, if the vote could
have been fairly poed. that single county in this
State would have sanctioned any ultra measures,
