in Cuba, the slaves would be liberated and
armed against the patriots, and the guns Of Moro

If that be the intention Of the Spanish au-

government to interpose immediately. For q

It's said that French vessels Of war are AT

this is because there are coIored officers among

The HARvEsr.-DUBLm, July I9.--In the
teeth of weather the very reverse of genial, the
accounts from the country are nearly all favora-
Bile. For the last three days the rain has been
almost incessant, and at present tho atmosphere
shown no symptom of amendment Neverths-
less, accounts from various parts Of the kingdom.
including Cork, Limerick, Tipperary, Clare, and
the midland counties, speak in the most cheering
terms Of the progress Of the harvest, and more
particularly Of the vigort us appearance Of the
potato A correspondent writing from Killar-
ney states that all traces of the blight have now
disappeared in that district, and similar reports
come from other quarters.
CoMPLErioN or THE RAnwAy TO GALWAY
The browning finish was given on Saturday to
the great line of railway from Dublin to Galway,
by placing the last rail on the Shannon bridge.
This splendid structure is 500 feet in length,
and constructed Of wrought iron eirders, with
openings of l65 feet in the clear. On Saturday,
Mr. Hemans, the Chief Engineer of the line,
with staff Of assistants, arrived to witness the
completion of the bridge, and test its strength
by driving the first locomotive over it. BY 10
o'clock at night, after great exertion, the clos
ing rail was cut ald laid in its place, and amid
the cheers Of great crowd Of spectators, the
Venus engine was driven four times rapidly from
end to end of the bridge which bore the weight
without the slightest apparent DETECTION. The
line is to be inspected for the government this
week, and will be open 10 the public on the first

SuicrpE IN FRAxcE.-The number OF suicides
in France from the year 1895 to 1886 amounted
to 33,092 During the year 1895 the number was
1905 and from that time il regularly increases to
3,l02, with the exception Of the year 1874, which
fell of A from the year ls43. The proportion be-
tween men and women was 1,7S5 to $40 in 1885,
and similar in the other years. Suicide was much
less frequent in the mountain regions than in the
level country. The number was decidedly infu-
enced by the season OF the year. There were the
least in the month OF december, only ,977 cases
in the whole twelve years. From that month
there was regular increase till June, which
numbers 1924, and regular decrease again from
that time till December. Among the suicides
during this period were 800 children under is
years Of age thence the number increases till be-
tween the age Of 40 or so, Of which class there
we're 6,675 cases then again regular decrease ;
there being still 45S cases over S0 As TO occu-
patton, 1880 were day-lsborers, 1883 military
men, l,57l capitalists. OF the deaths, 11,0e4
were by drowning, 10,705 by hanging, $500 by
shooting, 2.23l by the fumes Of charcoal, 1923
by sharp instruments, 79l by poisoning, and
1899 by falling from height. As to the causes,
there were GAO cases from mental alteration,
3,745 from bodily Suffering, l,l86 from fear Of
legal process, 2,623 from domestic troubles,
,553 from poverty, 1857 from pecunisry en-
barrassment, 143 from III treatment OF parents,

NEw YoRK Mock Auc ucrroSs.--.There is same.
ness in the relations Of the frequent rogueres in
these shops, which forbids their republication.
The following offers some variety:
A Pennsylvanian. named ostfed, entered a
mock auction store in Chatham street, on Mon
day afternoon, snd after a spirited contest with
numerous other bidders for the great bargains
offered, he succeeded in getting watch and "a
pencil. both gli:tering like FURNISHED gold,
Knocked down to him for twenty dollars. After
paying for the articles, he discovered that he had
been duped, and there upon drew revolver for the
purpose Of enforcing restoration Of his money.
The ouconeers fed into rear building, and
oaifeld seized two watches and FIVE dollar bill,
with which he marched out into the street. This
was a summary process, TO which the auctioneers
were not disposed to submit, and they followed
our hero, crying murder" ""police, &C., as far
as Hubert street, where he taken into custody.
Here compromise was effected, 0atfel agreeing
to return the three watches, the pencil, and the
five dsllar bill, in consideration Of his twenty doll
lars being restored. The parties then separated
by mutual consent, wisely declining to have JUS
uce administered between them at the Tombs.
