Cuban Reports.

Cubans here are in receipt of advices up
to the 18th instant, which confirm previous
reports of the prevalence of cholera and
yellow fever among the Spanish troops.
The mortality is said to be very great. In
several portions of the island their line of
communication is cut off, and they are suf
ferng for want of food and medicine The
Spanish army has lost since the commence
menl of the revolution more than half their
force in battle and by disease and desertion.
The Spaniards have been concentrating in
the Cino Villas district, and collisions are OF
almost daily occurrence. The reinforce
ments which were. sent from Camazuey at
tackled the Cubans and were defeated. They
were compelled to retreat, with loss of
over 800 killed and wounded. The loss of
the Cubans was less than 100: The Cuban
forces from Jacquey Grande attacked the
Speniards near Palmidas, defeated large
force of regulars and volunteers, and cap
tured that town, with the provisions and
arms which were stored there. The expe
dition which landed at Nuevas Grand sue
ceeded in joining the main body of the
Cuban army with but little difficulty. 1t
numbered 600 men, all in good health and
spirits. The Cuban army is said to he in
good fighting condition, and the leaders are
determined to follow up their recent victo-
ries, and are confident of success. They
have as yet suffered but little from disease,
as they occupy elevated and healthy posi-
tions some distance from the coast.

HOW 1t feels 10 be scaIped.

A victim OF Indian vengeance arrived IN
this city Saturday night, departing yester-
day for his home in Monroe County, New
York. His name is Delos G.. Sanbertson.
aud he lost his scalp at the battle of
Washita. Perhaps the sensations expe-
rienced by Mr.. Sanbertson will interest and
enlighten. Says he:
Il was in the infantry. Custer had COM
mand of the troops. There was quite a
force of cavalry with US, but they were
about a mile in the rear when we first dis
covered the reds. Some of the troops had
been sent around so as to attack from the
other side. The reds were camped in a
sort of valley, and we were within eighty
rods of them for half an hour before day
break. Just in the gray of morning, the
firing commenced on both sides, and we
had it all our own way for a few minutes,
the cursed snakes being much confused, and
not knowing what was up. At length they
rallied, and we could hear Black Kettle
shouting and ordering. The vermin got
into holes and behind rocks-anywhere
they could find place, and began to fight
back with will We fred whenever we
could see top-not, and shot squaws-there
was lots of them-just as quick as Indians
We just went in for wiping out the whole
gang. When it was fully daylight, we all
gave big yell and charged right down in
to camp. The lodges were all standing yet,
and lots of Indians in them. As we run
through the alleys, big red jumped out al
me from behind tent, and before l could
shorten up enough to run through with my
bayonet, sguaw grabbed me around the
legs and twisted me down. The camp was
then full of men fighting, and everybody
seemed yelling as loud as he could. When
L went over backward, dropping my gun,
and had just got part way up again. the
squaw yanking me by the halr, when the
Indian dubbed my gun and struck me
across the neck He might just as well
have run me through, hut he wasn't used to
the bayonet, or did not think. The blow
stunned me; it did not hurt in the least.
but gave me numb feeling all over. l
couldn't have got to my feet then if all
alone, while the squaw kept schreeching and
pulling my hair out by handfuls. l heard
some of our boys shouting close by, and
the squaw started and ran-one of the hoys
killed her not three yards off. The Indian
stepped one foot on my chest, and with his
hand gathered up the hair near the crown
of my head. He wasn't very tender a bout
it, but jerked my head this way and that,
and pincHed like Satan. My eyes we're
partially open, and 1 could see the bead
work and trimming on his leggings. Sud
denly felt the awfulest biting, cutting flash
60 round my head, and then it seemed to me
as if my whole head had been jerked clean
of. 1 never felt such pain in all my life;
why it was like pulling your brains right
out. didn't know any more for two or
three days and then 1 came to find that
had the sorest head of any human that ever
lived. If the boys killed the viper, they
didn't get back my scalp; perhaps it got
lost in the snow 1 was shipped down to
Laramie after bit, and all the nursing I
got hain't made the hair grow out on this
spot yet"

An Insane Bridegroom.

On Tuesday wedding party arrived at
the Delevan House from Lake George. They
were from New York, and had been on a
tour of about one weeks duration. The
married couple were accompanied by sis
ter OF the bride and some other acquaipt-
ances, and all seemed happy enough until
they reached this city During the day the
bridegroom manifested decided repugnance
to his wife. He threatened to use her vio-
lently if she came near him. His strange
conduct led his friends to think he was
insane, and this idea was strengthened by
the fact that he had been in that condition
some five or six years ago. All attempts to
reconcile the man to his wife were vain. No
one could quiet him at all except the BRIDES
sister. When she came near him he would
sit down and cease to be boisterous for a
time. He rapidly grew worse, however. and
in the evening locked himself in his room
and threatened to shoot any person who
might make the attempt to enter His
friends were alarmed at this state of affairs,
and called upon Mr.. Leland to interfere
He did so, and was compelled to force the
door before gaining admittancc The man
was found to be raving crazy. More help
was called for, and after desperate strug-
gle the insane man was bound with cord
to prevent him from doing injury to himself
or Others. The whole party took the night
train for New York The bride was incon-
solablc in consequence OF the sad condition
of her husband. She wept bitterly, and
her friends and others who saw her feared
that she, too, might become insane. Alto
gether, it was sad ending Of honeymoon.

A Curious Divorce Case Coming-A
Young Girl is Willing-MarriedW With
ont Her Consent

A divorce suit is about to be commenced
in this city, says the Troy Press of the 22d
inst, based on most extraordinary grounds.
1t seems that for several months past a
young man of this city has been boarder
IN the family of man living in the lower
part of the city There was girl living in
the family-a daughter-to whom the young
man paid some attentions, escorting her to
the theater and to church on one or
two occasions. There had, however
been no love making on either part.
Some two weeks ago the father of the young
lady came suddenly into the room where
he and her mother were sitting, and said
to her: : Go and get ready you are to get
married in an hour" The mother confirmed
the statement and told her to go and get
lady friend of hers, living near, to stand up
with her. The gi asked to whom she was
to be married. The father answered, Ito
Henry" the boarder before mentioned. The
girl took it as Joke, and went and got her
friend. When she came back minister
was present, and in less than ten minutes she
was wife. She now seeks relief from the
marital bonds. She alleges that she was so
confused and surprised on finding that her
parents were in earnest, that she did not
know what she was about, and that she was
married to the young man without her con-
sent. We apprehend that there are some
insuperable obstacles in the way to her OBJ.

Discovery of the Internal Regions.

LIMA, May 28.-In my last letter men,
toned the extraordinary phenomenon. near
Locumba, which causes the death of all
animals that approach that fatal spot. I am
now enabled to give you some particulars.
An American gentleman who passed over the
locality confirms the previous reports. On
the Locumha road, about twenty-five leagues
from Tacna, there exists what is here termed
a dry arroyo, but in fact is the bed of a
former dry river, into which, from time i'm
memorial, no water has been known to pass.
During the late earth quakes, which destroy
ed africa and partly Tacna, the shocks were
strongest in the neighborhOod of Locumba
and the Arrieros. A mule-driver reported
that one of the mountains near the arroyo
had been split open, and small stream OF
fetid water was oozing out of the mountain
into the arroyo. No attention was at first
paid to the fact, nor to the mortality among
the animals that visited the neighborhood.
1t was only when the people began to leave
Tacna and, flee from the scourage of
OF the yellow fever, which was devas-
tating the cities, to the valley of Locumba
that they became aware of the fatal effects
upon their animals, at distance as much
as eight and ten miles from the arroyo
"The STENCIL" says my informant, 81 can
compare to nothing else than old bilge wa
ter, of the smell of which you become pain
fully conscious. Within twelve miles from
its source my horse dropped down under
me, and in five minutes lie was dead. He
vomited three or four times thick, black
substance, similar in consistency and APP
pearancc to the. black vomit. was thus
left to walk fifteen miles to the nearest
house, two thirds of which I may call a
mules graveyard. so thickly was the old
road covered with them The cause of this
singular freak of nature is unknown but it
seems that the gases which have impregna-
ted the atmosphere produce the vomit and
death of the animals that inhale it. What
these gases are composed of science alone
can solve" A commission has been order
ed by the Government to examin into this
extraordinary matter and report upon it

Gen. Grant.

=
Upon Gen. Grants accession to the Presi-
dency. saws the New York Tribune great
number of those who had supported his
election. with some who had not, sought
Office at his hands, or expected him to be-
stow it unasked. He was unable to CRAFTY
their aspirations. Most of those whom he
found in Office claimed that they gave him
their votes; some of these he saw fit to
retain; while the laws of which he is the
servant required him to reduce materially
the cost of the public service and the num-
Der employed in it.
Our great civil war had rendered necessa-
ry large increase of minor functionaries;
the settlement of claims to pensions, &C., had
excused the retention of hundreds in place
up to the close of Mr.. Johnsons term; but
now law and justice alike demanded that
they be dismissed, to their own very general
disgust. Their lamentations, mingled with
the bowls of the disappointed, made up a
doleful dissonance, whereof the only mean
ing deducible runs thus" Gen. Grant is
found wanting-his administration is fail
ure!"
'Failure 2" how? in what2 Have we
not peace and plenty in the land9 Is not
our flag displayed and respected on every
sea- What foreign foe molests or threatens
us? Who fears instruction at home, or in
vasion from abroad In which of our thirty
seven States are the masses wanting work,
disconnected, sufering9
Consider our financial condition Nearly
every State and municipality paying off debts
incurred in raising men for the War, while
the National Debt has been reduced nearly
Thirty Millions in the Four months that
Gen. Grant has had his hand on the helm.
The public expenditure is falling off on
every side, while the revenue is up to high
water mark Even Indian Wars, If una
voidable, must be considerably reduced in
cost by the facilities for moving troops and
stores afforded by our two Pacific Rail-
roads.
Yes; Gen. Grant has failed to crafty
some eager aspirations, and has thereby in
CURED some intense hatreds. These do not
and will not fail; and his administration
will prove at least equally vital. We shall
hear lamentation after lamentation over his
failure, from those whose wish is father to
| the thought; but the American people let
| them pass unheeded. Their strong arms
bore him triumphantIy through the War
and into the White House, and they still up
hold and sustain him. They never failed,
