The Cuban League have issued an
address to the American people, cal
ling a mass meeting at Cooper Insti-
tute, New York, on the 4th of April.
The object is to urge the accord
ance of belligerant rights to the Gu
ban Republic. While innumerable ex-
ecutions in cold blood, mock the name
of justice and mercy in every town in
Cuba' where Spain has kept a guard,
our humanitarian orators are worse
than dumb. American citizens even
are insulted ard murdered by Spanish
attempts to stamp out the spirit of
Liberty. care our peace men silent
because they dare not advocate the
stoppage of war by the Intervention
of d stronger power? Where is our
sympathy with a people fighting on
their native soil for self-gavernment,
for the freedom of a million Of slaves
besides, and for all that christian civ
iIization has to give to a free nation ?''

AS to the d0trpaFs tenaciousness
in regard to the amount Of excess on
the part of the Commissioners, we
care but little, whether it was one
hundred, or one thousand dollars.
The offense is not mitigated even, If it
be true that the amount aOds $296, 900
instead of "nearly $500, OOO." One Of
the Commissioners himself informed
us that that the amount sold was
$3.50, 900.
The journal objects TO, or is not
pleased, it seems, with our reference
to the fine and creditable buildings Of
the State officials, who happen to be
the Commissioners in question. The
article containing the Objectionable
references, was written as editorial
correspondence, on Our arrival at Lin
coin, before there V6s an Investigating
committed appointed, and was intend
ed as a compliment TO that enterpri-
sing and go-ahead town; and we ven
ture to say might have been copied by

no committee talked of, or appointed.

only be taken as an indication of
Fearful u-ReaSiHess.D - "Conscience

are unjustly mutilsted, we reprint

A Terrihla Pintnre

A Sedan correspondent of the New York
World in recent letter after speaking of the
destruction of the village of Bazeilles by the
Prussians in the battle preceding the capitula-
ton of Sedan, thus presents the present con-
dition Of affairs in the latter place:
Pestilence has broken out in Sedan, and in
the neighboring village of Carigan and Dou-
zy. The pestilence was the inevitable conse-
guence OF what happened after the battles.
As usual, no report Of the losses in these en-
gagements has yet been suffered TO appear.
The Prussian grave-diggers use no ceremony
in their operations, but the dead were too
many for them. The corpses, in great num-
bers, remained unburied. They purified
quickly, and the air became tainted with the
fearful odor. The battles took place on Fri
day; on Monday the field were still covered
with Unburied bodies Of men and horses,
and the stencil was intOlerable. Dur
ing Sunday and Monday, since the dead could
not be buried quickly enough, a new plan was
adopted to hispose Of them. They were con-
sumed by fire. The plan adopted for the ac-
compishment Of this Wholesale cremation was
curious In various places in the field a deem
trench in the form of cross was dug: a fire
was made in the center of this trench, and the
air coming from the four arms of the cross
shaped trench gave to the flames a fierce in
tensity, Then upon the fierce fire were piled
the bodies of the dead, German and French
together, and these were left to burn while the
grave-diggeTs went on with their work of
burying the other dead in shallow pits, with
only few inches of earth thrown over them.
For the living it would have been far better
had all the dead been burned for from all
these thousands of shallow graves pestilenti-

A TOrDid system,

Sometimes, without any sssignable cause, the
physical strength and animal spirits give way, and
a strange torpOr falls alike on the body and intel
Iect There is little or no pain perhaps, but the
natural vigor and elasticity of the nervous and
muscular system seems to have departed, and an
Indifference to the pleasures of e and even of its
grave responsibilities, takes the place of that ear
nest interest in both which eharaoterzes every well
baIan ed mind when in healthy condition.
This state of partial collapse is often the pre-
monitory symptoms of some serious malady. It
Indicates unmistakably that the vital powers are
languishing and need q stimulant: In such cases
the effect of a few doses of Hostetteris Stomach
Bitters is wonderfully beneficial The great tonic
wakes up the system from its browse. The seore-
tions and the circulation receive a new impetus
The relaxed nerves recover their elasticity under
the operations of the specific like the slackened
strength of musical instrument in the process of
tuning. Lethsrgy and debility are replaced by en-
ergy and vgOr, the spirits rise, and life that al
most seemed a burden while the season of depres-
sion lasted, becomes once more enjoyable. That
such radical change should be produced by a
remedy entirely devoid of the powerful alkaloids
and minerals so extensively used in moders prao-
tice, may seem incredible to those who pin their
faith on the Inedi inal efficacy of active poisOns
but If these skeptics will take the trouble to en-
auire of those who have tes ed the corrective and
Alternative yirtuOus of the Btters under the circu
stances described, they Will find the statement to
be true.

ed to the public, which has more real claim to
attention than the Champion Steam Boiler, for
washing clothes. It was on exhibition at our
fair, but its extreme simplicity prevented its
receiving as much attention as it should have
done. Nor is its general appearance calculated
to speak much in its favor. 1t is only when
seen in operation, that any accurate idea can
be obtained of its value. It is the most rapid

Our Fair.-Although the first two days of
the fair were anything but encouraging, the
number of entries made were largely in excess
Of any fair for a number OF years, and every
department was vel supplied. The display
Of cattle was good, and would compare favor
ably with the display made at any of the ad-
joining exhibitions. Horses, also, were good,
and some very fair goers were contestants for
the various premiums. Sheep was not so full,
nor as good in quality as might have been,
but very fair. The show of swine was very
good. And poultry was well represented.
In agricultural implements, there was an ex-
cellent display OF labor saving machines, and
the different agricultural works were repre-
sented. In carriages, J. L. Moore made good
show, and his work attracted great deal of
admiration. In cabinet work, Tschumy q
Doncyson were we'll represented, and in the
miscellaneous department was exhibited an
excellent clothes washer by Thompson d Co.
The vegetable samples were fully equal to
anything Of the kind we have seen, and at
tracted general attention, while the grains
were good, and some specimens Of corn very
superior. In dairy products and provisions
the display was large and good, and the con-
tests for the special premiums were evidently
spirited. Among the various articles entered,
nothing attracted more attention than NAM
moth pumpkin pie, placed on exhibition by
Mrs. Geo. Tindall. It was from Is to 20 inch
es in circumference, and many Yankee cast
longing eyes at it.
The fruit department was well filed, with
fine specimens of the various varieties, and
apples peaches, pears, ounces, and grapes,
claimed admiration and excited ENJOY,
In the promiscuous department, many valu-
able and useful articles were entered. c. N.
Dillon. and Garfield Hedrick & Bristol made
fine displays Of hardware sc, and Thompson
& Co., had a good stock of stoves on exhibition.
Perry Close exhibited fine stock Of queens
ware &c.
Floral Hall was, as usual, the center Of at
traction, but was not as tastily trimmed nor
ornamented as previously.
The fair was decided success IN attendance
and display, and manifests what our people
are capable Of when they are reused up. We
hope to see them reused up another year so
they will do even better. The officers deserve
credit for their management
