PARIs, July 8. 1.-The rumor that Spain
hasrequested France to advise che United
States TO preserve strict neutrality re-
gafding Cuba, is unfounded. It is re-
garded certain that Rouher, representing
the theory Of the personal government,
will give place to Emil Oliver, represent
ing the Parliamentary Government. 1t is
stated that the Emperor is willing to
abandon arbitrary power, and share the
country and AZ Il Ieeislature. The s;s senate sae
win soon assemble. when organic changes
will be consummated.

RICHMOND, July 8.-Gilbert G. Walker
arrived here at II o'clock this morning,
from Norfolk. The day was made holi-
day for his reception, and when the cars
arrived, about 5000 people had congre.
gated Mt the depot. A committee, com
posed about equally of the most promi-
nent white and colored citizens, was ut
the cars to receive him; but tho populace
rushed in and seizing Walker, bore him
on their shoulders to o coach, ornament
ed with the National and State flags.
I The procession, which was nearly
mile long, marched through the princi-
pal streets. Many of the coaches, of
which there were q hundred in line, were
covered with National flags; and on the
band Wagon was Transparency, with
q painting of white and colored men
shaking hands. The streets were blocked
with people following the procession,
and at least 900 were ont. On reach
ing the house of Col. James r. Branch,
the conservative candidate. killed by the
calamity on Friday last, tho procession
passed in silence and with uncovered
heads Upon reaching the hotel, Mr..
Walker appeared between the National
and state flags, held by representatives
OF the two races, and after few minutes
of deafening cheers, made brief speech:
saying. after congratulating the audi
ence on the complete victory, that in
this moment of triumph, they must not
. forget charity for the defeated; they must
: remember that the votes cast against the
ticket were given by the deluded and ig.
norant of race that had not vet had
time to be educated sufficiently to know
the wrong of disfranchising others. We
must remember that We have succeed
ed on the platform of universal suf-
rage and equal rights; and we must
see that those who opposed us, as we'll
as those who supported us. have all
their rights, and are protected fully
by the law. and with the law, and
nnder the law. Loud cheers. They
must be educated and taught the value
of the great boon of franchise that has
been conferred upon them, and the true
value of being citizen. We must not
forget that the opportunity of winning
this victory was given us through the
hberality of President Grant. loud
and continued cheering.1 And we must
see that its fruits are for the benefit of
oil. After jocular allusion to the grief
OF the present State office-holders, of the
Wells persuasion, the speaker concluded
by cheerful picture Of the future pros
perity OF the State. Three cheers were
gwen for Grant at the close. Mr.. Walker
was followed by Isaac Hunter (colored)
and several white speakers.
The election returns to-day continue
to be moro and more favorable to Walker.
The returns this morning show that the
Walker men will have q majority of GO

IxprASApoLIs, October Ia terrible
accident occurred at the State Fair this
afternoon. The boiler of Sinder d Co.,
Of This city, exploded few minutes be-
fare four o'clock. There was al i'm
mense crowd on the grounds at the time
of the accident, and il is difficult to get
particulars. Il is known, however, that
twelve PERSONS were instantly killed, and
the number wounded will probably reach
one hundred.
This accident is the most heart-rend-
ing one that has ever occurred IN this VI
cinity, and has cast gloom over the en-
ire cry. The explosion occurred when
the grounds were crowded with visitors.
The boiler was attached to the saw mill
OF Sinder & Co, of this city, and had just
been fred up for test of speed with aH-
other saw mill. Arrangements had been
made to take it up as soon as the trial
was over. So far as can be ascertalned
tonight there we're nineteen killed.
The excitement aud confusion is so
great tonight that it is difficult to obtain
q correct list Of wounded, but it is
thought that the number will reach nearly
one hundred. A lady, name unknewn,
aud little girl seven years old, and five

probably be held tomorrow. Many OF
the bodies are horribly mutilated and
burned. and an some cases it will be
almost impossible for their friends to
recognize them. Many Of the most
severely wounded we're carried to the In
diana Surgical Institute, the proprietors
of which, as soon as they heard Of the
accident, rendered the use Of the Insti'
tnte for the wounded.
