NEVIS FROM NEW ORLEANS.

New ORLEANS, May 13.-The steamship
Mexico, which has been laying a. the wharf for
several weeks, took FIRE aL two o'clock this
morning and burned until she sunk at six A.
M. No cargo or any combustible material
known to be on board. The fire was undoubt-
edly the work OF an inoendiary. The fire in
spector reports the vessel recently soli, it is
said, to Cubans. There was no insurance.
The crevasse reported several days ago at
the Vilere plantation below the city has been
abandoned as hopeless. The repairs which
were made by negro soldiers and plantation
hands washed away as fast as constructed.
The opening is almost eighty feet wide and
eight feet deep at last accounts and more asing.
Another crevasss occurred only half mile be-
low the city limits this evening, but companies
OF negro soldiers we're promptly sent from
the barracks, who closed the gap and strength
ened the levee. The water is about two in
ches below high water mark, but is driven by
high northwest wind. The wharves at the
head OF Poydras and Lafayette streets are sub
merged, and there is considerable alarm felt,
and strict watch il kept on the levees on the
city front.
The steamers Virginia and Louisiana report
that a serious crevasse occurred on Sunday at
West Baton Rouge Parish, nearly opposite
Port Hudson. The Baton Rouge Advocate, of
Monday, says: "This crevasse caused sudden
fall of two inches in the river at that point;
also, that all attempts to close it Will be met
fec.ual, owing to the sandy soil and the extent
OF the break, which was then sixty yards wide. :"

The ANGLICAN CLERGY-THE APPROACHING
GcUMEnIuAL CouNoH AT RoMB.--A very I'M
portant, il true, bit Of news comes to us by
the last English fnail--the news, namely that
% considerable number Of Anglican clelay-
men have determined to attend the forthcorn-
ing General Council at Rome, in order to
''lay their difficulties before the assembled
prelates Of the Universal Church" Their
.eal nest desire" II seems. is to be united to
Rome, but their chief difficulty is that they
have perfect faith in the validity of their or
ders, and believe that it would be sacrilece
either to submit to reordination or to revert to
the position Of laymen. A specisl commit.
tee has been appointed at Rome to deal with
the subject Of Anglican orders, and our
contemporary has no doubt that the re-
verend piigr,ms will have all their doubts set
ct rest. As the ultimate result of this mission
to Rome, the London Weekly Register--a woll-
informed Roman Catholic journal anticipates
that there Will be IAN accession to the Church
of some OF the best and most pious anglican
clergy, and that many amongst the laity will
follow their example. This is curious pro
ceedlng-Aand will be watched with no little
interest on this eide Of the Atlantic. The
American branch OF the Anglican Church hsp-
pens to have not few clerEymen within it's
pale, who seem to be tfouOleH with the same
difficulties as those which afiict the brethren
abroad. and If there is to be. On the part OF the
latter, any travelling Romeward, it would not
be snrprising. III they should have company
froin this side. IN. ". EspreSs. ia4 59eff8

west, 70 near Kingston, connecting with the
Blue Ridge Railroad, is the true and best plan
for Cincinnati. The real object 's to make a
direct Southern trunk line, which should con-
meet at tho most central point with the North
Carolina system Of railroads.; with the Blue
Ridge Road Of South Caroline; with the Savan-
nah Valley Road now making, and with the
Selma and Mobile Road. All this can be done
by trunk line carried either to Knoxville, or
to some point within forty miles of it. To do
this will require: l. The purchase of the Ken
lucky Central; and, 2. The making of 16O miles
of new road, at cost Of $40 900 per mile, Sc 400

the law authorizes the city to raise. The
work can be done. and every mile Of it finished
within two years. Suppose it done, what viii
it do In our opinion, the benefit 10 Cincin-
nal is almost incalculable. Itgives her the
trade of on immense country. in which she
can have no rival, SO far as the exchange is
for Western products. Now, that whole trade,
nearly, goes to other cities. at double the dis
tance. By this trade, Western products will
be LAID down in the Southern Atlantic much
cheaper than can be now. So We say---Hurrah
!t for the Southern Railroedl Urge it on j Make
to do what is inevitable.

"A swEEPINa OFFSET TO TlLsfALABAMA CLAIMS
LONDON, May 1.-THE Morning Standard,
Conservative, mas long leading article to-day
on the Alabama question and the speech Of
Senator Sumner in the United States Senate.
The writer reviews the relative positions OF the
United States and Great Britain, and asserts
that the raids and other outrages perpetrated
by the American Fenians in Canada during the
past few years more than overbalances the de-
predations committed by the Alabama on
American commerce. The Government of
Great Britain, in consenting to submit their
mutual international grievances to arbitration,
did more than could be fairly demanded, anl
to yield further would be an act Of cowardice
and degradation. ~
RESIGNATION OF THE MAYOR OF CORK.
LONDON, May 11.-O'SulIivan, the Mayor Of
Cork, has resigned his Office. Mcguire, the
member for Cork, announced the fact in the
House of Commons to-day, and stated that
O'Sullivan had taken this action to prevent
re election. The bill disqualifying the mayor
from acting as m agistrate was in consequence
postponed foEone month.

ment Of Great Britain, in submitting to an arbi-

that it was possible to concede.

Champion, asks to be recalled. An amend
ment has been introduced in the Cortes de-
claring that all power emanates from the ma

NEWS FROM CUBA.

NEW YORK, May 13.-Havana accounts from
Spanish sources represent that after the fight
at Allagracia, General Lesca reached Puerto
Principe with his convoy, the insurgents being
unable to detain him; and that the Cubans lost
one thousand killed and wounded. The Diario
says two thousand, but the Voz de Cuba doubts
the correctness of the Diario's information.
Letona, who made the official report Of the
affair at Allagracia, gives few details. He says
since the fight the rebels cannot get together
two thousand men. Tie taxes for the coming
fiscal year are to be reduced fifty per cent. The
Gaceta publishes accounts OF further confsca-
tiens.
WASHINGTON, May 13.-It is represented on
good authority that the question OF recogniz.
ing the independence of Cuba formed the
prominent theme Of discussion at the Cabinet
meeting this afternoon, and that majority OF
members took strong grounds in favor Of aid.
ing the Cubans. On the other hand, it is
claimed that the government is in receipt Of
information from reliable sources that the
Cuban insurgents are not making any head
way, and that but little remains OF Cuban for
ces but detached parties acting as guerillas.
This kind Of warfare, it is said, may last for
some time, but the Spanish army expect to
put an end to the insurrection in short time.
This information does not come from the
Spanish aide, but through an agent Of our
government in Cuba, who has been close
observer Of affairs in the island. 1t is
also said that the opinion was expressed by q
high official OF the House Of Representatives
that the recognition Of the provisional gov
ernment of Cuba was only question Of time,
and that but o few weeks more would pass be-
fore de facto government would be establish
by the Cubans and duly recognized by the
United States Government.
The order OF President Grant to the war and
navy officials, authorizing them to sell war ma
terial to any parties desiring to purchase, is
being taken advantage of, and quite o num-
ber Of applications have been made recently
to buy cannon and ammunition Of various
kinds. No questions are asked by the off,
clals, and the government does not know
what use is being made OF material purchased.
