HAVANA, November IA special
correspondent here has received the su-
nouncemeut that st. Domingo City has
been destroyed-probsbly by an earth
quake. Details have been telegraphed
for, and will be forwarded al once.
BANGOR, Me, November 1S.-Sleighs
have appeared in our streets, and ex-
ceedingly cold weather prevails.
New YORK, November is The New
York Herdid's special says the garrison
of Washington has been considerably
reinforced within the past week or two,
and it now forms military post of more
imposing strength than it ever did before
in time OF peace. An anxious inquirer
learns it is because the troops can be fur
nished better winter quarters here than
elsewhere.
The Worlds special says: "The Re-
publican Senators and Representatives
who have arrived here express a deter
mination to stand by the reconstruction
measures, and maintain a majority Of
the white men of the South stand aloof
and take no part in the election, then
they are in faver Of placing the govern
ing power in the hands of the negroes
and the few whites who act with them"
Both the President and Secretary Ne
Culloeh are in favor OF Sherman's pro-
posed five per cent. loan bill.
KINsTON, IA, November l8.-There is
fear of another riotOus and revolutionary
outbreak by the negroes here. The par
ish Of st. Thomas, in the East ,.is threat
ened. On the present occasion, as in the
ease of the former rebellion, there are as
many as four hundred negroes tolersbly
well disciplined according TO military
4. .,
The Protestant rector of st. David parish
has teen already sdmonished by the
leaders Of the cOlOred force. A great
panic exists ali over the Island in eonse-
auence. The Government and Execu-
tive officers are on the alert The white
population is seriously menaced.
Severe shocks Of earthquakes were ex-
perienced on the days Of the 1Ith and
18th instant.
The news Of the insurrection In Hayti
is confirmed. On the 18th Of October
the scene in the legislative chambers
was very violent, and the language used
was of the most threatening character.
1t all arose from a motion made to re-
lieve MoMese, who is in Cape Haytien
dungeon. The members all spoke in his
defense. It Is stated that President Sol
nave became so audaciOus as to secretly
incite rsbble of women and boys 20 at
tack the House Of Assembly. This they
did, amid loud voices from Solnaye's
party, and cries of down with the Assem-
bly,, and hurliDg at the same time bricks,
bottles, sticks, etc. The dwellings OF
many were stoned. The American Con-
sui was fired at, but escaped unhurt. A
unanimous protest of the diplomatic
corps has been presented against all such
scenes, and demanding of the Govern
ment TO see to it that the like do not oc-
cur again. AT last accounts Port su
Prince was quiet. The treaty with the
United States is as yet in suspense.

man, and accept him as a leader, because
he does not condescend to tell them
where he Is going 30 lead them zap
plause.) Is that Democracy? Is that
Republicanism Is that the genius OF
our Constitutions Was It not Calhoun
who said that In this country there was
nothing that could be kept secret that
could be worth Keeping secret, for the
genius OF our institutions Is publicity ?
And now the American people boast that
their leader does not condescend to ten
them what he thinks There may be
two reasons why q man does not talk.
One is that he has got nothing to say.
That is not the timber Of which to make
President. Another Is that he dare not
tell what he thinks. But man does
net speak by his tongue. He speaks by
every drop Of his blood, by every motion
Of his body, by every emotion Of his soul :
and Grant mas not made that record.
General Grant Is the only prominent man
Of the day whose acts have been followed
up by long chapter of apologies he
never takes step but the whole Amer
lean press sets out to tell you that 1t does
not mean what il seems to mean.

WENDELL PHILLIPS LATEST PHI,
IPpTg Oh GEANT.


IPPIU Oh GEANT.
Wendell Phillips delivered discourse
in Philadelphia on the "Perils Of the
Hour" The following is report Of that
portion of his philippe in which be made
special reference to Gen. Grant:
five put into the Presidential chair
the idea represented by Thad. Stevens
using his name merely as a cOunter), we
shall gain ninety-tiye per cent. Of what
we have earned in this war; put George
b Mcclellan there, and we shall gain
two and a half per cent; put there the
idea that Ulysses Grant repre-.
sents, and we shall get forty per cent.
Mark me, do not care anything for the
names; / am merely using them as
symbols OF the ideas they represent; and
my anxiety is to secure sll that cur blood
and treasure have earned. The speaker
touchingly referred to the return OF a
Boston regiment from the war, and sitter
expressing his own emotions At the sight
he said that the country owed it to those
who risked and those vino had lost their
lives in our struggle that nothing which
they had earned be lost or jeopardized.
The men who sleep in the swamps of the
ChickAhOminy asked that q man be put
in the White House who represented
the idea for which they were
willing 10 die. What man
at this time more prominently than any
other stood before the country? A
voice" Grant") Gen. Ulysses Grant
was that man 20 whom the speaker
would most cheerfully accord sli the
praise and applause which that general
was entitled 70 receive. He il was who
said, 81 will fight Il out on this line If il
lasts forever and therefore was it un-
wise or unnecessary thst we should ask Of
such a man, who never quilted the line he
had once adopted, "Sir, on what line do
you intend to carry the nation out ~
He is the man OF granite and iron. 1t
was because he was granite and iron that
be carried Us safely through Virginia.
Before you stamp the policy Of the future
in granite and iron, be sure You have the
right instrument with which to stamp.
Men cay that Grants merits is his reti-
cence. Reticenee what il the meaning
of retieence? The Pope in the Vatican
is reticent, and the world bows at his
feet. Aristocracy sits in the palaces Of
France, and is reticent and the en-
shaved millions put their hands on their
lips and their Iii ps in the dust, and accept
ii. Reticent! It is the symbol OF
aristocracy il is the eorrOiary
of education and wealth. But DEM

the millions with the conscience, the
millions with the ballot--tell them that
they are. 70 cit dOwn at the foot Of q
