A proposition has been made
in New York for an Internation-
al Dog Show. The basis of the
enterprise is that dogs are a ne
ccsslty to man, and that it is
mans duty to cultivate the
acquaintance and companion
ship of the best breeds and cx-
terminate tn, worthless ours,
which are rather a curse than a
blessing.

An Elective .stsiIciurs,

The New York people are
getting tired of their elective
Judiciary. The Post says that
after a fair trial of twcnty-threc
years, the dignity Of the bench
has been gradually lowered, its
ability has decreased and the
respect paid to its judgments
both ut homo and abroad, has
steadily fallen of. The Post
ALSO says:
The Supreme Court of Pennsylva-
mia, whose decisions during the early
part Of this century were famous i'll
both hemisphercs as models ofjudicial
wisdom and style, is now a local po-
h,ical tribunal, whose Judgements are
often angrily discussed III the party
press Of the State, and rarely beyond
it. In short wherever judges are elect
ed by the people, they have lost not
only the unquestioning respect of the
community, but much OF the qualities
which deserve it"
The only safe mode for pro-
curing an Independent and able
judiciary. in our opinion is, to
nave the Judges nominated by
the Governor and confirmed by
the Senate, and then give them
a long tenure-of-officc and de-
centpay. Bccauseunderthe elect
i've system. we have been for
tunate in Iowa so far, while
starving our judges, it does not
follow that our Bench will al
ways remain so. No such ire
sponsible body as a capricious
nominating convention should
be dabbling in Sc important a
as selecting the expound-
crs Of our laws. Directly, the
whole country will be sick of
an elective Judiciary. [Davcn-

The following Is an extract of alet-
ter to gentleman In Charleston,
written I'm 1866, by an American then
living in Havana:
az have spoken TO several intelli-
gent planters, (sugar,) who have for
years employed in their estates Chi
nese in connection with negroes, and
the information | give you, you may
rely on. In getting them, IL Is well
that they should be between the &c sof
IL aud % years, and from the country
agricultural districts In preference to
the cities. Most of them can read
and write, and many Of them are
quite well educated. They arequlck,
Intelligent and clearly, have but once
TO be told thing, and have n remark
able facility for learning trades
They arc strong, and will do rs much
labor as negro hero. Some few
planters employ them exclusively ON
their estates, and raise more sugar
than those employing an equal mum
Der OF negroes. These, however, gem
orally stimulate them 10y dividing
among them n small percentage Of
the proceeds of the crop. They are
very docile. Their introduction has
been profitable on the island, and
those 10 whom j have spoken, (all
planters, and some Americans,l think
they will also do well in the Southern
States. For farming, gardening and
working machinery, they are excel.
lent. This Information IL authentic"

allowance for human imperfection.-
No two human beings can be brought
into the intimate relatiunsltip'of hus-
band and wife without the occasional
development Of something discor-
dant. Only perfect, absolutely sim
less persons, could live absolutely per-
feet lives together; and such men and
women can never be found i'm this
world and as in another world there
will be no marrying, absolutely per-
feet marriages can never be realized
either In this world or in that which
Is to come. But, are not the vast
majority of married persons quite as
happy as an equal number of unmar-
ried ones? Nay, more, are not the
great majority of married people ns
happy In their unmarried state M
they would be unmarried? And still
more, are they not as happy with
each other as they would be with any
body else ? By change OF partners
they might get rid OF some one or
more causes of disturbances between
them--some constitutional defects or
infirmities, or SOME tilsagreeable,
cherished habits, but they would find
In other parties other causes Of dis
turbance quite as serious, though of
an entirely different kind so that af-
ter all 1t might be very difficult to
say OH which side there was the great
test amount of happiness or misery.
The fact Is, that men and women are
susceptible Of only II given amount of
contentnlent and happiness, in any
condition of life and marry whom
they will, they can never exceed their
captivity for enjoyment. Many peo-
pie are foolish enough 10 iHnngine
that marriage is the sovereign cure
for all the disquitudes and iniseries of
life; and when they get married, and
yet find their fayorite penacw does
not work perfectly, they jump to the
conclusion that It was ill-assorted,
and therefore an unhappy one;
whereas the only trouble is, that both
husband and wife are human--neith-
er divine nor angelic--and have, like
all other human beings, moro or IL.
of sinful infirm!ty about them.

An Incident of tkc Canvass at HUNT
Ni1lc.

In the Bristol News report OF the
speaking at Bluntville we find the
following:
In responding, Stokes came TO time
with great difficulty, promising IT,
speak out not half of his half hour.
He labored and sweat enormously,
and showed his terrible defeat had told
upon him with wonderful effect. He
said he had been called the Bald
Eagle, and the Owl. Now Senter
was like another dark winged bird,
which sails slowly about seeking for
some soft food TO prey upon. The
Eagle was noble bird and the Owl n
watchful one. But If he were the
Eagle, Senter was the Buzzard.
Gov. Senter replied in few words,
saying there was point In the ancc
dote. IF he were the Buzzard he
would leave the audience to say
whether he had not found plenty OF
carbon pointing to Stok,s' and
whether he had not pulled 1t well to
pieces. The widest storm of laugh
ter and applause followed the applica-
ton of the anccdote and the discus
ion closed, leaving Stokes the most
complete used up man II has ever been
our fortune to behold.

such another occurrence has happened.
Three prisoners, men of high character
and prominence to wit Don Manuel
de Jesus Ramirez, Don Ramon Calvera
Alfonso, Don Benito Hancio Figurora
were lately ordered under an escort
from Cartagena to Cienfuegos, and
were all shot in cold blood in the open
road.
The revolution is progressing splen-
didly in the East; the reinforcements
of the cause with troops and material OF
of war renders the triumph Of the in
surgents certain. Confcation is be-
iEg enforced with heavy hand at
Puerto Principe, and very many Span
iards are leaving the country forever.
1t remains to be said that the most
cheering news is being received from
Vuelta Abajo and the Western Depart
ment. There is want of arms, but it
is believed that these will soon be furn-
ished, and should matters grow very
serious from any cause at Havana you
may expect to hear of a rising in that
quarter The fires of revolution are
blazing in all directions, and there is
every reason to believe that the cause
triumph.

CUBAN REVOLUTION.
HAVANA, May 30.

HAVANA, May 20.
The revolution by the volunteers OF
Havana against the Government of the
Island of Cuba was begun on the Odd
of January last. On that day they slew
women, children, and defenceless per.
sons in and around the theater of Will
anueva. Then was commenced an un-
heard-of series of disorders, and now
the work is being rapidly consummated.
Anarchy is, it may be truly said, ram
pant. and everything to-day proves it.
The telegraph has, doubtless, given
you the news of serious disturbance
which occurred here a few days ago,
but t particulars are matters of con-
sequence.
Two of the Cuban Chief Aguilera's
sons have been murdered. One was of
the age of IA and the other OF Is. The
mother Of Gen. Marmol has likewise
been killed, and it is said that brother
of the General has been put to death.
Balmaseda is the author of these crime
Another shameful affair is related. 1t
has long been custom with the Span
iards to murder their prisoners by the
way side. In other days it often hap
pened that the captured rebels were
dispatched in this way. 1t is a matter
of note in the history of former troub-
les that no prisoner, starting from
Puerto Principe for Havana, ever
reached the latter city. Some pretext
was given, of course, by the guard, de-
failing the req, ons that made it neces,
sary to shoot them, such an attempt to
escape-but this was always under
stood. Their officers limited to them
by knowing wink or side express
sion that they were not expected to car
ry them all the way to Havana. just

and not far from the eastern terminus
of the great "Hoosac Tunnel" The
village of Shelburn Falls is beautifully
situated among the berkshire Hills, !"

rangement of the place. Here we ha We
one of the finest water powers in all
New England-just above the Falls
"Nature" has almost formed ''dam"
for the 'Fuse of man y on either side of
the Falls there is large plot of ground,
well calculated for building sites and
farming purposes. Beyond this the
high hills rise, down whose sides nu-
merous small streams find their way to
the more majestic river. Several large
tool and cutlery manufacturing estab-
lishments are located here, which give
employment to large number of men
mostly natives" The village contains
about thirty-fve hundred inhabitants,
has good hotels, pleasant churches and
neat houses, and presents to the travel
er desirable place in which to locate.
1t is quite resort in summer for per-
sons from the city, who desire roman
tic retreat, good fare, plenty of fishing,
and mountain rambles. If man could
not enjoy himself here he ought to be
banished to &c a lone barren Isle, where
the wild dropping willows wave" There

that is the education of the laboring
portion of the people. AS rule every
mechanic is competent to keep his own
