The News from Cuba.

A deputation Of about fifty Cubans and
Spaniards have waited on Captain General
Lersundi, requesting him to enforce the orders
which they understood him to have received
from the home government authorizing public
meetings Of the citizens. He replied that he
had no such orders, and would at once put In
force all orders from his government. At the
same time he gave the deputation to under
stand that time when the island is disturbed
by instruction is no time to ask such privi-
leges. All the available troops are being for
warded to the scenes of trouble in the eastern
and southern parts Of Cuba. Meanwhile the
Cadiz steamer due on the 30th inst. is anx-
iously watched, as she is expected to bring q
proclamation of political liberty by the pro-
visional government. The insurgents in the
eastern districts were headed by a Venezuelan
refugee. Most Of the bands had been dis
persed.

of their own safety among their depositors
and SO cause run upon them and they are
the more reluctant to deviate from established
custom because Of the stringent condition OF
the Western money markets, the near ap-
proach of the pork-packing season, which VIII
quicken the demand for money, and the antici-
pated drain Of currency southwark to move
the cotton crop. II is to be hoped, however,
that notwithstanding the critical condition OF
affairs general panic will be averted.
Alleged Naturalization Frauds In Court.
We published yesterday a full report OF the
examination before Commissioner Osborn in
the case Of Benjamin B. Rosenberg, charged
with selling fraudulent certificates Of naturaii-
cation. The allegations are that the accused
sold these certificates at the moderate price Of
two dollars piece to certain parties employed
as detectives by Marshal Murray, filling UP
the blanks with fictitious names furnished by
the detectives. As the case is still on it would
be improper to express any opinion as to the
guilt or innocence of the accused We can
only say that as the law has got one individual
into It's clutches there may be chance OF
making an example that may serve to break
up this long-standing and outrageous system
of manufacturing voters to the detriment OF
every honest citizen who enjoys the right of
franchise. That the practice is in vogue with
both political parties is undeniable, and that
the prosecution in this case bears all the ap-
pearance Of party business is also true; but
as the opportunity offers to sift the matter to
the bottom it should not be lost. In Boston
just now the authorities have got hold of prize
fighter and they are about to bring him to trial.
The result will probably be that the brutal ex-
hibitions Of the prize ring will be put an end to
in Massachusetts, after nearly century Of eff
forts in that direction. Why cannot we effect
the same result here with regard to fraudulent
naturalization

The Last RaiIrond Calas.rophe.

We say the last railroad catastrophe in
speaking of the one on the Hudson River
Railroad on Saturday, because these so-called
accidents follow each other so rapidly that it is
uecessary,to be specific. The recklessness Of
human life shown by railroad companies, mana
gers and officers, as we'll as by steamboat owners
and captains, is frightful, and is creating gene
raj apprehension among the travelling public.
If something be not done to prevent the FREE
euent recurrence Of such catastrophes the peo-
pie will dread getting on railway trains or
steamboats,. In this last case Of the Hudson
river slaughter it appears that the fault is attri-
buted to the managing men Of the company in
failing to have the splintered rail, which caused
the accident, repaired. 1t seems they knew
there was defective rail. Their conduct de-
serves the severest condemnation, and they
ought to be punished. We do not suppose Mr..
Vanderbilt knew anything about it, but those
who did should be held accountable. and Mr..
Vanderbilt himself should investigate the matter
and cause the delinquents to be punished.
Railroad companies should be compelled not
only to remove imperfect rails, but should be
required also to have every section of their
roads inspected daily by persons app ointed for
that purpose. The prosecuting attorneys and
grand juries Of the State should take prompt
action in this and all such cases, and make
examples of those who thus recklessly jeopar-
die the lives Of the people. There is always
neglect of duty somewhere, as is seen both in
the case Of this Hudson River Railroad disaster
and that Of the late collision between thA
steamer Continental and propeller Northamp-
ton, and there is no way Of reaching the evil
but by Furnishing severely the guilty parties

to Engineer Claim through Con.

gross. l.a,.- 49,.
Washington Correspondence Of Cincinnati Times.
Another widow lady has been pressing
her claims before Congress, and has also
been successful. Her name is Martha M.
Jones. and she is the administratrix OF
Samuel J. Jones, her husband, who OBJ
tanned patent some years ago for an I'M
provement in zinc paint, which patent his
widow desires to have extended. She is
possessed Of indomitable perseverance, is
good looking, intelligent, and highly edu-
Gated, She stated her own case to the House
Committee on Patents, and the bill she was
interested in passed the House, and went to
the Senate. She knew if it was not attended
to quickly it would 60 over TO the next ses-
sion, and perhaps might not be acted upon
for year or two. Consequently, on We'd
nesday afternoon she took position IN the
marble-roon, and sending her card to va
rious senators, succeeded in gaining an in
teryiew with each one for 'as one would
come out to converse with her she would re"
quest him to send ont another, and IN this
way she stated her case to all personally.
She was q lady Of winning ways, and
worked upon the susceptibilities of the
grave and dignifed senators till she sue
ceeded in gaining all in her favor except
Senator Wiley, of West Virginia, who
stoutly opposed the bill. He was alone IN
his glory, however, for when the vote came
to be taken he was the only one opposed
while all the rest were in favor Of the bill
which of course passed, and the lady wen'
on her way rejoicing. In the course OF inc
debate Senator Wiley "twitted y his fel'
low-senators for being captivated with the
intelligence. and viyacity OF the lady "he
had SO eloquently pleaded her own case
which little piece Of sarcasm caused quite
laugh among the grave and dlgnlneo
legislators, all of whom acknowledged the
corn and Reverdy Johnson frankly ad'
mitted that he felt great admiration tor
the lady. The most amusing part OF the
debate was Senator Willey's effort to prove
inconsistency upon the lady in her state,
ments before the Patent Committee, ol
which Wiley is member.
In her written statement she set forth
that her beloved husband, Samuel Jones
was deeply distressed in mind one night,
and could not sleep. About midnight ne
Jumped up, exclaiming " Martha, L have
It'll i've got it 7" meaning he had solved the
problem of his invention. She begged hin
to come to bed, but he walked the floor al
night, and in the morning made practical
test of his invention, which succeeded even
beyond his expectations. This was all very
pretty but Senator Wiley insisted upon Il
there was material discrepancy in the
statement, inasmuch as the Samuel Jones
aforesaid had applied for and obtained
patent in England for the same inventor
two years before this affecting incident oc
cured 1t was no use talking, however
against the appeals of q good-looking ane
interesting widow ; 80 the worthy senator
had all the opposition to himself, and CANE

Ts Il consistent with liberty or freedom, or

IONS or the tone and temper and intentions
~ tbose who have turned us off from the
" uosts oS labor for daily bread. They care
not mo- for peace, or amity, or amnesty. taey
care not if every wound Of their country
testers to the very vital parts OF ex-
istence. They care not for public safety 70
persons or property. They wish to reduce
loyalty to the minimum numbers OF compe-
tition for place. They ask not If their ac's
are lawful or right, but look only to the
power of securing the spoils. They are
striking at civil liberty and at law, and
ieopardize the public safety to remove Off
cial integrity and intelligence out Of the
way of their settled conspiracy to monopo-
lie the power and profits Of all public
Offices in our midst at place and among
people where they are enemies and

people and our fellow-citizens of this COM,

glorious privilege of being independent OF

FALSE CHARGEs.-Our Irish fellow-citi-
zens are somewhat indignant about an arti-
Gle which recently appeared in Father Ry-
ans paper (7Ae Banner Of the South) de-
nouncing James Shepherd, Patrick Ahern,
John Brophy, Thomas Colligan, Alexander
Delaney, and John O'Neal, all Richmond
Irishmen, as Radicals. The charge seems
to be based upon the fact of the stoppage OF
their subscriptions to the Banner. All Of
those mentioned with whom we are &C
quainted are good Conservatives. Messrs.
Brophy, Delaney, and Colligan desire us to
make special denial for them. Father
Ryan will doubtless gladly make the cor
rection.
