The School Chiidren's Statue of wash
jngtOn.

PHIL. July ga statue of Washing
ton, presented to tie city by the school
children, was today placed on its pedes-
tai in front Of Independence Hall. The
pedestal is of Virginia granite, supplied
bya company of Phiadelphians who are
working a quarry in Virginia. The
atue is of white Italian marble, executed
a, Struther's estal lishment. in this city,
after design by Bailey. Washington is
represented in court dress, his right hand
Ga volume sustained by a drapod col
umn, and the left on the hilt of his sword.
The execution and design are warmly
commended. The monument will be un-
yelled on Monday with appropriate cere-
monies, in which the school children are
to take prominent part. This compile
tioa of monum ent to Washington by the
children appears designed to remind their
fathers that they have as yet failed to
erect monument in Washington Square,
the cornerstone of which was laid forty
odd years ago, and which still remains in
sfatn quo, although the money collected
all that time and invested now amounts o
nearly enough to erect handsome NET :
orial.

The COnfederacy DE Facto Gov
ernmeDt

Judge Thread of the Fourth District
Court Louisiana, has recently rendered
decision in which hs still adheres to the
opinion enunciated by him in 1865, that
the Confederacy was de tacto govern
ment. The particulars may be briefly
stated: In January. 1868, in the parish
Of De Soto. Louisiana, the administrators
of the succession of Hamilton Sloan sold
to J. j. Green forty-,hree bales of cotton
at private sale. This cotton was subse-
quently purchased by John A. Stevenson,
for account of the Louisiana State Bank,
and in July, 1865, the sale was approved
by Major General Heron, who ordered
the delivery OF the cotton to Stevenson
The administrators in this suit alege
that Stevenson has no legal right to said
cotton because the sale to Green was with
cnt any judicial authority, and because
the price was paid in Confederate money
and they pray that the cotton, OF valne
thereof, he returned to them. The judge
decides that this suit is untenable, for the
following reasons:
l.. AutnIulSLrdoJTS CdHuOC take aUVa0
tage of their own wrongs. They cannot
allege their own turpitude. A subse-
quent administrator might complain Of
the wrongful acts of his predecessor, but
not the guilty party himself.
2 The sale is otherwise valid, because
it was made under de facto government.
3. The Confederate notes given in pay
ment were the only currency at the time,
recognized by the de .tacto government
and by the people. The plaintiffs. be.
sides, in faiiiiiiaa, to return the identical
notes, show that they have been bene flied
to that extent.
4. The delivery of the cotton took
place by virtue of an order from Major
General Heron, the military commander
acting in the name of the government =
That order is full and complete ratifca
ton of the SALE
And these reasons plaintiffs claim is
rejected, with costs.

Cuban Intelligence.

Recent advices from Cuban sources
state that after their recent repulse the
Spanish forces in the Cince Villas District
were reinforced by two thousand men,
regulars and volunteers, which increased
the Government forces to nearly double
that of the Cubans, and they were COM
PEELED to retreat. Several small bodies
were captured by the Spaniards, one nun

Americans, all Of whom are reported to
have been (who, it is said, commands the

district have been destroyed. It is re-

The Paris Riots.

An English correspondent, writing on
the 18th of June, says;
Troops continue to parade the streets
every half hour, and on Saturday there
were a few small crowds, which the mere
sounds of the advancing force was sufi-
.cient to dispense. But what really did
finish the affair was the behavior Of the
tradesmen and superior workmen. who are
fearfully exasperated, living been touched
in the pocket. and that rather severely.
They arrested suspicious characters, and
handed them over to the police; and under
that final blow the whole affair collapsed
We are told, however. that it is only ad-
journed till the day when the Chamber is
to open. About the prisoners there are
some curious facts. They all have money
in their pockcts-some are stated to have
had ESQ or EGO, which think must be
an exaggeration; but the smallest gumain,
has los. or LIS, and this whole class has
answered one question in one way
Where did you get that money!" Answer,
''We were asked If we should like to
sweep the streets" If they said Yes
they we're presented with IF soc. Hav-
ing locked up all these prisoners, and
ascertaining the fact that they were every
one of them in possession of more money
than it was at all likely they could COM
mand from their own resources. the next
question is very naturally from what
source did those funds flow? 1t is already
stated that there is yet to be great in
surrecion, of which these enaeutes were
the oraut gorde, and that Government
already holds the key of the mystery.
The damage done on the Bonlevards is
estimated at e. 400: but to that amount
must be added the loss to trade all along
the line from the Rue Loyals to the Fau-
bourg Monamartre. The theatres have
suffered very much, as this return of tie
