HONDURAS.

The telegraph yesterday informed us that
the State of Honduras had taken possession OF
"the English settlement of Limas, and had
determined to hold it by force. This place
Limas is mahogany cutting establishment on,
or near, the River Roman. The English
consul general in Mosquito" went up to Limas
in an English vessel of war, about two years
ago, and hauled down the flag Of Honduras
This was done after the ratification of the
Clayton and Bulwer Treaty; but the occur
renee does not seem TO have been noticed byour
Government 1t is said that Honduras medi-
tates a forcible rescue of Ruatan, with view
of testing the guarantees of the United States,
as respects colonization in Central America.
The river Roman, it should be remembered,
flows INTO the sea near Truxillo, the principal
port of Honduras

CLEMENS on CUBA.-In the Congressional
proceedings, we yesterday inserted the speech
of Clemens, of Alabama, on Cuba He showed
himself TO be plainly in the breeching on
the whole subject and in opposition to
the fast" men of his party. 1t viii be
found in the end that the Southern men will all
be on one side on this question. This has been
our conviction from the beginning, and for
reasons, We have more than once stated We
observe that that the " Union" of yesterday
endorses Mr. Clemens. The sky of the democra-
cy lowers Gentlemen fllibusters, you may as
well make up your minds for conservative"
administration from Mr. Pierce. The South
ern men always point the way under demo-
cratic rule, and they don't ike to touch this
Cuba question for fear of burning their own
fingers.

GLORIOUS VERMONT,

Returns from yesterdays election in VER-
MONT shov an overwhelming majority in favor
of the striDgently ProhibtOry Liquor Law en-
acted by the last Legislature. This Law is
very far beyond the Maine Law in its severity
and will almost insure the destruction of the
Liquor Traffic in Vermont. Only reasonable
fidelity and vigilance on the part of its friends
are required 10 inforce tit almost goes
itself And wherever it does go, let the Rum
sellers clear the track
No measure was ever more bitterly opposed
nor had stronger array of inluAces 20 con-
tend against IL was vehemently assailed as
unconstitutional, and the late opinions Of
Judge Curtis, the New-Hampshire Justices,
&c, against milder laws, triumphantly cited to
secure it's rejection. Voters were assured that
it was aireadya nullity, and voting for it use
less absurdity; majority Of the Political
Press were either actively or passively hos
tile; while the fact that it was barely passed,
under circumstances which enabled its adger-
saries to declare it not legally passed weighed
heavily against it. There never was trl-
umph Tor Temperance won under circum-
stances so inauspicious. To the determined
and able advocacy of the only two Religious
Journals in Vermont with which we are ac-
auainted- The Chronicle Congregational and
The Repository (Uniyersalist)-the friends of
Temperance are deeply indebted for this tri-
umph.
Legislators of New. York and New-Jersey!
RumOcracy of Connecticut dare you 60 with
us before the People on the question of Liquor
selling Prohibition We entreat you, we eX-
hort you, We dare you to let the People settle
this matter for themselves 1t is their bust
ness-are you afraid to trust thenl Ii not,
enable them, TO vote for or against law like
that of Maine, and make their decision eff.
fectual Let us see who shrinks from this
ordeal

FRAUDS IN BULDNG THE CAPIrOL.-We
have all sorts of reports about swindIing ope-
rations connected with the building of the Cap
itol extension on the part Of the Superintend-
ent, who lately absquatulated to the South.
The man who is charged with these frauds was
a warm politician and an enthusiastic member
Of the Union-saging party in Washington
Why can't we have all the facts in the case
The last thing We learn is that not only have
the laborers been defrauded, but that cheap
and inferior materials have been used in the
foundations.
