YANKEE ROBINSON will again visit Ricl mond
Tuesday April 0th is evident from the advertise

1t was largely patronizei, and every body spoke in
the most favorable terms Of the exhibition, which is
among the evry best that travels. In speaking of
this Show the DAYTON Journal says:
YaaLse Ro5tssons Great Consolidated s hcsos which
are advertised in another column, will open out the
campaign of 136 in this city, Monday April 18TH.
That ths fl nods establishment, which has made
Dayton its head and wintering quarters, during the
past six months, the magnitude aud excellence of

citizens will actually come up to the standard II. per

We have frequently had occasion during The past

establishment and from what actually know of
their merits especially of the white sacred double

buildings. where the collection has hyomated, we
have no hesitation in recommending to our numerous
readers this worthy consolid alton to their special
patronage, not only because the management have
spent a vast amount of money-we understand about
thirty thousand doars--in Dayton and Montgomery
county, but because vertically believe II is entitled

and discriminating public. Both the equestrian and
geological departments said to be complete, while
the ballet and terpscichoran troupe added to the nov

CaPtain William II. West,
On the esth OF May last, Captain William II. west
well known In this oity,and OF fame upon the waters
died at sea. He was a son OF Captain West. for
many years commander Of the Pacific one OF the
Collins line OF steamers. In the early periods of his
life the deceased sailed from this port successyely
commanding, and most ably skilfully, and satsfac-
torty, number OF vessels. When the tocsin OF re-
bellion sounded he entered the United States youn
teer Navy, receiving the commission OF Lieutenant
The United States supply steamer Massachusetts,
was commanded by him FOR two years, and while
upon her quarterback he increased his previous
reputation az brave and efficient officer When the
war closed he quilted the navy, and was rendered
the command OF the steamship Quaker City, run
ming between New York and Charleston. Upon this
vessel he did gallant and noble deed IL will be
remembered that he IT was who rescued the pas
sengers and crew Of the steamship which was burned
on Cape Hateras IN the year 1867. The Pacific Mail
Steamship Company next offered him a position in
It's serviSe, and he died while in command of the
Golden City. His body will be brought TO this city
for interment.

SUCHIS FAME.


THE New York Herald has discovered that this
city has sustained great loss in the death of
CDR. Rush, Health Officer of Philadelphia !"
The Herald, however, thinks that the deceased
is better dead than alive; in fact, that his chief
claim to fame consists in the fact that he is
dead, and "commends his example in this re-
spect to health officers elsewhere, " not because
in dying he became a public benefactor by be-
queathing an immense fortune to a public insti-
tuition, but because in his will he Illuminated
against those teachers of disjointed thinking,
the daily newspapers from which it infers
that his brains were altogether too added for
the brains of a health officer. Now the occasion
of all this muddling by the Herald consists in
the fact that Swinburne is the health officer of
New York, and the Herald thinks that Swim
burne's brains are in quite as added a con-
ditiOn were those of the late health
officer of our own city. OF course, we know
even less about this man Swinburne than the
Herald does about DR.. Rush. There is, indeed
a Swinburne known to fame, certain pOetaster
whose brains we had supposed, were anything
but added, and whom we had been led to be-
lieve was and still is subject of her Britannia
Majesty. Yet we will not venture to question
the superior knowledge of the Herald but
will join with it in lamenting the miserable fate
of New York in being subjected in matters of
health, to the added sway of such a little, limp
ing, inactive, and unintellectual antediluvian as
the author of ''Laus Veneris' and "Atalanta in
Caydon." Moreover we will unite with the
Herald in pressing upon the attention of Swim
burne the example of our late health officer, and
urge upon him the expedency and wisdom of
forthwith giving up the ghost. Like DIR. Rush,
he will then become ''a health officer who has
made himself famous by dying"

lHE GRAND ANNEXATION POLICY of Bismarck
mas contributed not little to the glory and
nominal strength of Prussia but the people of
all the petty sovereignties which have been alb
soroed are not entirely acquescent in the new
order OF things short time since an election
for deputy 10 the North German Parliament was
held in Hanover, and it is announced that ont
of about 10000 votes, NJ. Ewald, an ayowed
partisan of the dethroned King, obtained ss45
or more than one-half, while only 1910 were
given to the candidate of the Liberal national
party. The new deputy was formerly profess
sor in the University of Gottingen, and will
probably be found, on his entrance in the Parlia-
ment of the Confederation, formidable oppo-
suppression.

Of that old Castilan spirit that at ono time made
Spain tho foremost nation In the world.
Contrary to the rumors that had been circu-
lated to the contrary, the Republican members
of the Cortes did not refuse to give in their ad-
herence to the will of the majority, but through
one of their leaders they announced thai,
although opposed to the mOnarchical clauses Of
the Constitution, they would support an follow
them. This is the only course that patriotic
men could take under the circumstances aIi II
the Republicans will give steady adherence to
the new Government, they can do much to check
any tendencies towards despotism and materially
advance the cause of liberty.
One great difficulty still remains to be sur
mounted, and that is the choice of a suitable
person to fill the vacant throne. Among all the
candidates who have been mentioned there is
not one that can be considered as exactly the
right man for the place; and if in choosing
king the old traditions of royalty are adhered to,
it will be almost impossible to find among the
rcigning families of Europe a prince who viii
combine the essentials of blae blood and brains,
and who, If personally unobjectlonable, will not
be fettered by his family connections As the
Spaniards, however, have managed tolerably
well for good while without either a king or
constitution, they can perhaps get along for
some time to come without a prince upon the
throne as the figure head of the ship of state.
The future prosperity of Spain, and her only
security against relapse into despotism as
onerous, if not as contemptible as that of Isa-
bella II, will be in the education of the people
and the perfect freedom of religion. Priestcraft
has been the bane of the country ever since the
times of Ferdinand and Isabella; and the only
way in which the influence of the clergy in poll
tics can be prevented is by school system,
free press. and an immunity for all shades of
religious belief. 1t is to these points that pa
triotic Spaniards will have to direct their atten-
ton, and in their advocacy and defense all the
energies of the Republicans should be directed

THE ADOPTION OF THE SPANISH CON-
STITUTION.

II there is any merit in deliberation, the Spanish
Government of the future ought to be a model
of its kind. The new constitution has finally
been adopted by the Constituent Cortes by
the large vote of 2l4 to 55, and the first
great step towards reorganization may there
fore be said to be complete 1t cannot be
charged that this action of the Cortes has been
hasty or ill-advised: the whole subject has been
discussed thoroughly in all its phases, and the
new constitution, if its provisions are carried
out in proper spirit, ought to cause revival

A NOBLE CHARITY.

Mr.. w. w. CoRCORAN has supplemented his
handsome donation of pictures for the formation
of national art gallery at Washington by an
act of munifcent charity which is even more
praiseworthy. He has established "Home for
INDECENT Widows" to be dedicated to the memory
of his deceased wife, which, with the buildings
and grounds connected with them, will cost
$500, 600 or more. 1t is designed to provide
neat and comfortable quarters for sixty widows
of officers, clerks, and other public servants,
who may be in need of assistance. and the
management of the institution is to be placed in
the hands of five Washington ladies. Mr.. Cor
coran's long residence at the national capital
has impressed upon him the necessity of just
such charity, and the class of persons whom
he proposes to relieve are, as q rule, eminently
worthy. Many officers of the Government who
have served the public faithfully fora long series
of years on small salaries leave their families in
absolute want, and this Home" will be q CRATE
full retreat for women who in their old age find
themselves suddenly left destitute and unable to
work. even if work is obtanable. Mr.. Corcoran
during the Rebellion was well known as a Rebel
sympathizer, but charity covers multitude of
SINS and in view of such a noble use of his
great wealth, we can afford to forget the past
-~As-
THE INIQUITY of the system of licensed gamb-
ling which has so long prevailed upon the con-
tinent of Europe is gradually making an i'm
preston upon the legislators of the petty
sovereignties by which it has been principally
tolerated. Several of the Insignificant German
duchies, whose chief glory and main source of
revenue have consisted in theirlicensed gambling
dens, have passed laws abolishing the system,
the date for carrying these laws into effect being
usually placed some years into the future. And
now Belgium has followed their example, the
Chamber of Representatives of that country
having voted recently that the gaming tables at
Spa shall be suppressed on and after October 81,
1872. If the Belgian Chamber had been true to
the best interests of their country, and especially
to those of the thousands of strangers who fire.

postponed the overthrow of the institution more
than three years; but it will be better to be rid
