THE TYRANT LOPEZ.

The statements made by Mr.. Charles A.
Washburn, when he held the post of United
States Minister to Paraguay, as to the in
famous cruelties practised by Lopez, were not
only denied by that tyrant, but he retorted
by accusing Mr.. Washburn, and Messrs Mas
terman and Bliss, with having been engaged
In conspiracy against him, and, moreover
managed to have his accusation credited Mr.
Washburn was unable to obtain the services
of the United States fleet in the South Pacific
waters when he demanded them, and Rear
Admiral Davis disbeGeved, or affected to
disbelieve, his reports, and did not
offer to go to his assistance until some
months after the call was made upon
him. letter, apparently written by an
officer of the navy familiar with all the facts,
and published some time ago in one of the
New York papers, among other extraordinary
statements of like character, gives as
reason for Admiral Davis non-action in this
case, that it was beneath the dignity of
Rear-Admiral in the United States navy to be
at the beck and call of q Minister, or any
civilian whatever. Not only did not our feet
go to the assistance of the Minister when it
was called for, but the whole conduct of Davis,
and the treatment which Messrs. Masterman
ana Bliss received on board of the United
STATES vessel which carried them away from
Paraguay, indicated that the story told by
Lopez was credited rather than the statement
made by Minister washburn and Others, who
had suffered from his cruelty. The oonduct
of Resr-Admiral Davis in this affair has never
yet been investigated, as it should be, and we
hope sincerely that if the Secretary of the
Navy does not move in the matter, that Con
gress will order an inquiry that will sift it t
the bottom.
In the meantime Mr.. Washburn, who i
now in London, has written letter to tn
Morning Star in answer to a statement to tn
effect that he had long since retracted hi
accusations against President Lopez Mi
Washburn denies in the most explicit man
ner that he has made any retractions what
ever, and he reiterates his accusations, an

CHARLES DICKENS, at a recent meeting in
Birmingham, England, defined his political
creed as follows:-"His faith in the people
governing wasinfinitesimal; his faith in people
governed was illimitable." He evidently re-
poses little confidence in the politicians or
statesmen of either party In one of his
novels he ridicules very effectively the pre-
vailing English system which confines the
choice of prime ministers to a very small
coterie of men, and nominally makes the
destiny of the whole nation hinge on the con-
fiicting opinions of Lord Noodle or Lord
Doodle. In the patriotism and wisdom of
the people, however, the great novelist has
illimitable faith; and if he was thoroughly fa-
miliar with the details of American politics,
this faith would, if possible, be strengthened,
for it is the people, after all, who purify and
elevate the tone of public affairs, and dictate
nearly all the wholesome measures that are
adopted.

NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE in the Old World
has recently received striking illustration.
The London Times complains that the Ameri-
can press has been led into an error as to the
manner in which the news of the result of the
recent international boat race on the Thames
reached the telegraph station 1t was asserted
that messenger carried the despatch on
horseback from the river to the nearest Office.
But it turns out that no horse was used on
the occasion, and that Electric jack" a
feet-footed Britisher, rushed through the
streets with the despatch in his pocket. If
an event of such widespread interest had
transpired in this country, special telegraph
wire would have been stretched to the river
bank, and the instant the race was terminated
the result would have sped, on the wings of
the lightning, all over the world! We are in
the habit of doing some things differently
from our cousins.

presents a list of the crimes perpetrated by
the tyrant Mr. Washburn states that Lopez
has tortured and shot his Foreign Minister,
Jose Berges, and his own brother, Benigno
Lopez He has shot his Chief Justice, Andres
Urdapilleta, also the Bishop of Paraguay, and
nearly thirty priests. He has shot his brother
in-law, General Barrios; his other brother-in-
law, Saturnino Bedoya, expired under tor
ture. He fogged his sister, the wife
of General Barrios, until r,she
was nearly dead, and he forced his mother to
make public declaration that she had no
child but the brutal monster who had muir
dered one or more and tortured with inhuman
cruelty her other children" Mr.. Washburn
says that the apologists of Lopez do not
pretend to deny these specific statements, or
the slaughter, eighteen months ago, of nearly
five hundred foreigners, but only allege in
general terms that they are exaggerated; and,
further, that 'the few English and other for
eigners yet alive in Paraguay are permitted
to live by Lopez because they are useful to
him. But if one of them shall escape to con-
firm and add to what and others have said
of his cruelties and crimes, they may, like
those who have already escaped, thank the
fortune Of war, and not the protecting shields
of their own governments"
There is no good reason to doubt the word
of Mr.. Washburn in this matter, and the
most singular part of the affair is that Lopez
should have found so many eager apologists
who undertake to deny the statements of
witnesses who are entitled to be believed in
every civilized country, in preference to
the tyrant of Paraguay. The course of Lo-
PEI has been strictly in accordance with Para
guayan traditions, and he has shown himself
to be true follower of the infamous DR..
Francia. Such a character will attract bar
barous public to him through mingled fear
and admiration far more than more humane
ruler, and this will serve to ex
plain in some measure the desperate
character of the resistance he has been able
to offer during such protracted war and
while fighting against such apparently over
whelming odds. The valor displayed by
Lopez will excite for him certain amount of
respect even in the hearts of his enemies, but
his downfall will be a blessing to South
America and the world. The exclusion of
foreigners from Paraguayan territory at all
hazards has been the leading idea of the
rulers of that country, and it has been one of
the means by which they have perpetuated
their power This would be sufficient of itself
to substantiate the assertions of Mr.. Wash
burn and others, and there cannot be any
doubt whatever that these accusations are
true to the letter. The action of our Gov
ernment-or its proper representatives-in
the matter of Mr.. Washburn's release, was
not creditable, and although Rear-Admiral
Davis may have sustained his own dignity"
he certainly diminished the respect, not only
of Paraguay, but of all the South American
States for the flag of the United States.

and the pools returned, on account of q

Lexington off the track. Three heats had
been run. A disposition to raise dis
turbance was manifested by those who
had set everything upon winning, but the
police hustled the disturbers off the
ground. The decision meets with gen.
eral appreciation.
