LATE NEWS.
Riot i'm New Orleans.

Charleston papers of Saturday received to-day
have dispatches from New Orleans under date
of the 2lst, giving accounts of fearful riot in
the latter place. A party of Cuban iberators
mostly western men, exasperated by the tone OF
certain articles in the Spanish paper, La Pa!rid
in relation TO Cuba, attacked the office, broke in
the doors and windows and turned the press and
cases into the street, and destroying everything
belonging to the office.
Another despatch from New Orleans, dated
22d, says 1000 men had that morning surround
ed the city prison, in which the Spanish Consul
had taken refuge, and threatened to demolish it,
unless the Consul was given up TO them There
were about fifty policemen on the ground. The
cigar shops, kept by Spaniards, were nearly all
destroyed Last night minute guns were fired
-atter sunset, in honor of the murdered liberia
tors. The bodies of Col. Crittenden and Capt
Victor Kerr, which have been brought here from
Havana attracted crowds of people, and the
sight produced deep feelings. The police made
no attempt to interfere with their movements
The mob after demolishing the Office of the Pc
trla, proceeded to cigar store on the corner o.
Charles and Gravier streets, and breaking the
doors and windows, destroyed all the stock anC
furniture, which was very valuable Att O'Clock
the rioters proceeeed to the Office of the Spanish
Consul and attacked it, and DESTROYED the furni
ture and the property. They also broke dowr
the signs over the stores of Spaniards, Whicf
they carried in triumph to a large meeting helC
in Lafayette square. The military were order
ed ont to suppress the riot. Three or four Span
lsh coffee houses bad been DESTROYED The ex
element against the Spanish Consul was caused
chiefly by his refusal to deliver number of let
tiers from prisoners shot at Havana, which haC
been written Just before their execution. The
letters were forwarded to the Consul by the Gu
ban authorities. A committee waited on bin
and requested the delivery Of the letters, which
he refused, bat was subsequently forced to sur
render them. The Cuban news had created thu
greatest excitement.

The News from Ca:bn.

Oar dispatch OF Saturday afternoon was more
favorable to the cause of the Patriots than the
facts will warrant. We find fuller reports in the
Albany Register of Friday which renders clcal
the obscure portion of orr dispatch, but which
also leave grounds for app, hcnson that Lopez
has been defeated instead Of ha.ing trjumpbci
According to the Registers repcy. the Fal
con was first chased by the steam frieate Isabel
la Catholica when off Bahia. This frigate wa,
formerly the Cunard Steamer Caledonia. After
ward she was cleared by another steamer whict
fired upon her and compelled her to hcaye to, as
stated in our dispatch of Saturday. Upon hel
dong SO the officers and men of the Spanish
steamer gave three cheers, after WhiCha Spanish
officer boarded her and behaved in an insuitna
manner inquiring particularly for Spanish pas.
sengerS.
After he left, the Falcon went into Havana
where the greatest excitement prevailed. All
Americans there were basct with spies, and none
felt safe from one day to the next. The Capt
General had sent about 800 men TO meet Lopez
when he heard that he had landed, aud they had
advanced to a certain position, and then moved
10 further without reInlorcemguts. Seven hun
drcd more We're then sent. This was about TWO
days before her arrival. During Satur lay, the
report was that Lopez had cut off al commune a
ton between the government forces and Havana
and the fact of the Capt. General having received
no dispatches from the General in command
seemed strong proof OF It, nor had the steamers
cruising off Tie coast any better success.
While the Falcon was at Havana the eXecu-
ton Of the captured patriots took place. They
were led out 10 at a lime and shot. Not a sign
OF fear or murmur escaped from one of them.
The bodies We're thrown into hearscs, or s at
a time, and taken away and buried.

Execution of John HIcCaffry.

This execution is the first but one, which has
ever taken place under the Civil Government of
the State or Territory of Wisconsin; although,
there have been five executions since 1880, four
of which occurred from 1882, to 1884. One of
these executions occurred at Mineral Point, I'M
der the administration of Judge Lynch, and the
subject we believe, was an Englishman. Anoth-
err occurred at the the Indian Reservation, under
the administration offthe laws Of the Stockbrdge
Indians. The subject was an Indian.
Another took place at Green Bay, under mar
tia law, the subject was a soldier who shot an
officer The other was an Indian, who was al
so executed at Green Bay, for the murder of an
officer of the U. S. A. 1t is possible he may
have been condemned by District Court of the
U. S., if he was not, this execution must also
have taken place under martial law And in
1898, a man was executed at Lancaster, in Grant
County.
If there have been other executions, they are
out of the range of our knowledge. We hope that
this execution will satisfy the friends of Capital

A INSTRUMENTATION.

Some of our readers are aware that an article
appeared in the Democrat of last week, under
the signature of 'Michae McFaul, Pastor of ST
Marks Church" which reflected somewhat
severely on US for the following words, USED IN
our last paper.
We give the whole of the paragraphs:
"Lct the proper means of education be Afforded 70 all
Let all who wish labor, have labor ohereu d ing
eracon instead Of compelling people TO live together, be-
cause a priest has said them iorih Oh words.
We repeat sentimen-sociey az hrge Is responsive
in great degree for the crimes and mseries which grow out
of its iron customs and its unreasonable laws.
We thought at the time we read the article,
that the Rey. Gentleman had entirely misappre-
hended our meaning, and in conversation with
our sentiments. Itappears thath supposed the
word priest in the above connection, referred
solely to the Priests of the Catholic Church.
We are authorized by Mr.. McFaul, to express
his regret at the misapprehension on his part and
he assured us that such explanation as wonld
be necessary for fair understanding between
friends, should not be wanting on his part.
What we meant in the article by the term
priest, was SIHlpIy, lHe dSelll vi VIC law OHc
who can legalize marriages, and had no refer
ence to any individual, in any place. or in connec-
ton with any church.
The idea we intended to convey, is, that it is
better for society, under some circumstances, that
a man and his wife should separate, if they could
not live amicaby together.
What is the marriage covenant, is it nothing
but the formal words of the ceremony
Does God join every couple who are legally
married nobody believes it.
Then we say, whom God has not joined, let
such live asunder-don't compel the husband to
butcher the wife, or the wife secretly to poison
the husband, because they live unhappily togeth-
er, and can find no other way of separation.
We claim the right of expressing our own
views-we yield the right to everybody else
We do not exact, nor even ask that everybody
should chime in with our sentiments. Examine
all things, hold fast to the true and the good
But we do beg that we may be understood, be-
fore we are adjudged of hercsy; or suspected
of hostility.

Look WFlIIO the SiCns

Texas was not annexed at once, the first signs
were very dim, but wise men alone understood
them.
Gen. Campbell, for long time Consul at
Cuba, is now at Washington, advising the ad-

strong pro-savery man.
Armed men are everywhere leaving the Unit
ed States for Cuba, and no arrests by Federal
Offers.
The Cuban invaders, had a meeting at st.
Louis on the 8th and large companies are leav-
inc bUt no arrests.
Lopez sailed from New Orleans, with 500 men
armed and equipped.
The steamer Fanny Self, left Louisville, a
few days since with foil company for Cuba.
AT least $500 men have left New Orleans, or
are about to embark for Cuba
Does Government know of these things, and
if il does why are there no arrests.
