The Cross STREETS OF THE CITY.-We are
reminded by petition for paving Brown
street from Congress to Free, OF the present
situation of Centre street from Free towards
Congress street.
Centre street from Congress to Free street
has at least twice the travel of any cross
street between High and Exchange street and
is always in worse condition than either of the
others.
The city authorities of the present year are
invited, as they have been in past years, to
look at its condition-unpaved and gullied-
part of the'portion which was paved taken up
and not replaced, and the corners of Free
street ornamented with piles of square stones.

THAT STEAMER.-It is conceded that a
steamer did actually sail from New York
Tuesday night for Cuba, laden with Cuban
sympathizers, but the account in the World
was sensational, intended as slur ON the gov
eminent and as a blow at the Cubans. The
vessel that left was not the Arago, neither was
it the Grapeshot. The proceedings OF the Gu
bans were profoundly secret, so that the gov
eminent officers, acting with ordinary cir
cunspection could not be expected to have a
knowledge of them The World of Thursday,
however reiterates its previous statements in
regard to the Arago and gives more details.
1t says that the insurgents are supplied with
fixed ammunition from government stores.
Train is ON hand in the matter as usual and
sends the following dispatch to the President:
The government stopped the Fenians on the
Canadian frontier l demand, in the name OF
Que million Irish voters, that you send fast
war steamer TO seize the Cuban fiibuster
which sailed yesterday.
This expedition is an English intrigue to
checkmate Ireland's freedom. The Cuban
mass meeting was Tammany affair in En-
glish interest. GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN.

PHILLIPS INTERNATIONAL LAW.-Wendell
Phillips in the last Anti-Slavery Standard, dis
cussing the Cuban question says:
The rules OF international law, devised by
tyrants and usurpers to enable them to per-
petuate their own power, haze little aoeigtt aoit
as. So far as national non-interference means
leaving the different elements and classes of a
nation free to arrange themselves and shape
their own institutions, we value and are dis
posed to respect it. But if it is strained to
enact that we must sit by, neutral and indif-
ferent, while one race murders another as in
Crete, or one class enslaves another, as in Gu
ba, zoe sag, daDdy aoiu such nonsense and Athe-
ISM IN the name of lao. Wherever man rises
for his natural rights, we have right to SYM
pathze with and aid him. Civil and political
rights must be arranged by each nation accord
ing to its own ideas. Men outside may and
ought to leave such things to settle themselvt s
according to the level of nations intelligence
But natural rights rest on different principles
and draw after them different duties. A race
or class battling for them has a right tc all the
aid we can give it.
Hence there is no likeness between our re-
belion and the rising in Cuba The Cuban
patriot inscrbes Justice and Liberty on his
flag, and hence may claim the help of all the
world. We would have our Government not
only promptly recognize the belligerency OF
the Cuban insurgents, but announce to the
world, as principle OF international law, that
any race rising against similar aorongs should
be recognized as soon as they had fought long
enough to be seen and heard JfUe hundred miles

The CREATIoN.-Our readers will notice in
another column the advertisement of the per-
torrance of the grand Oratorio of Haydn
Creation. The musical talent engaged, with
our own, forms a combination that promises
the best exhibition of the divine art ever wit
messed in our city. We believe this Oratorio
will be as finely rendered ON the 18th and 10Th
of this month in our City Hall as it has ever
been in Boston, New York, or any other large
city in our country. Knowing the musical
talent engaged, we don't hesitate to say that
the most exacting ears will not be offended by
any discordant sounds. We have reason to
expect our hall will be crowded on both eve
nings. 1t will be seen that the railroads will
carry passengers who attend the Oratario for
fare one way.
