WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY IS, 1871.
THE TENNESSEE.

The conflicting rumors about the Tennessee
leave her fate in doubt, but increase the pro-
liabilities that she has been obliged to trust
to her sails instead of steam, and that her
voyage has thus been protracted without
seriously endangering the safety of the COM
missioners and her crew. 1t is said that a
war vessel sold by the United States to the
Haytien Government a few years ago was
lost on a voyage from an American port to
Hayti, when she had on board number of
prominent men connected with the Haytien
Government, and some of those who are
fearful of the fate of the Tennessee
would regard her loss as one of the striking
and shocking condolences that occasionally
occur in national affairs. There appears to
be good grounds, however, for the hope that
the Tennessee is still safe, and that the chief
result of The prolongation of her voyage will
be such a delay in the investigation and
report of the commissioners that the present
Congress will be unable to act definitely and
understandingly on Grants annexation
scheme. If this anticipation proves correct,
the San Domingo question will go over to
the next Congress instead of being
disposed of by the present House and
Senate, and the chances of the success of the
Presidential policy will thus be materially
diminished When the Tennessee started on
her voyage it was supposed that time would
be afforded for her safe return before the
ides Of March, and that favorable report
from the commissioners would probably
insure the immediate passage of an aunexa-
tion bill. This programme, however, has been
substantially broken up either by adverse
winds, defective machinery, or, possibly, by
fearful calamity; and from present indca-
tions the political future Of the nation may be
sensibly affected by the mishaps of the vessel
whose fate is now an object of universal
solicitude.

TIE WEST POINT sQUABBLEs.

AAN w 1NN'A l. O1@' wv
The squabbles among the West Point stu
dents continue to engage the attention of
Congress, and it was asserted in the de-
bate yesterday that the root of the trouble
was not only the admission of a colored
cadet, but ''the presence of cadet, the son
of man high in authority, who interfered
with orders and discipline. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that such difficulties arise in a ma
tional school of SO much Importance, and we
hope that solution will be found for them.
While every student at West Point ought to
be taught that he owes his highest allegiance
to the whole nation, every mere partisan
influence should be excluded, and
offenders should be punished without
fear, favor, or affection. 1t is bad enough
that what is called influence" determines
who shall be the cadets, and 'infuence" of
any and every kind should stop just at that
point-so that the institution may be con-
Quoted on such principles as will give it the
highest degree of efficiency. West Point is
not supported by the nation as hospital for
youthful imbeciles, nor as a playground for
young rioters, but as nursery of the leaders
of future American armies, and nothing
should besuffered to initiate against the de-
velopment of tho mental, moral, and physical
treDgth of the cadets.

A BODY of five hundred mounted horsemen,
who are supposed to have been members of
Ku-Klux Klsn, recently broke open jail in
Columbia, South Carolina, and took out ten
negro prisoners confined on charges of murder
and arson, eight Of whom they instantly
killed. Before the days of the Ku-Klux
similar outrages were not unfrequently COM
mittea in the South in the name of Lyhch
law; and whatever they may be styled, they
are indications of the prevalence of a spirit of
barbarism exceedingly disgrsceful to the
community in which it is tolerated. Unhap-
PLY many sections of the South need not only
reconstruction but civilization, and it is vain
to hope for the establishment of law and
order until their savage instincts have been
famed

THE AMERICAN STEAMSHIP CON.
PANY

The names of the subscribers to the stock of
the American Steamship Company have been
published, and the list shows that the mer-
chants and business men of Philadelphia have
fully appreciated the Importance of this great
enterprise, and have heartily given it their
support. In the list of subscribers are the
names of some of the best-known and most
respected firms in Philadelphia, and all the
multitude of industrial enterprises which con-
tribute to the wealth of this city are repre-
sented. Many of the stock subscribers h ave
also taken the bonds of the steamship COM
psny, and have otherwise exerted themselves
efficiently to give it fair start. The impor-
tance of a liRe of European steamships as an
auxiliary to the manufacturing and commercial
interests of Philadelphia cannot be over
estimated, and citizens of every class should
contribute what they are able towards getting
the vessels built and the line in running
order at as early day as is possible. Exten-
sive as is the list of stock Subscribers, there
are many prominent merchants and others of
Philadelphia whose names are not found in
it, and it is to be hoped that these will at
least aid the enterprise by taking some of
the bonds of the company. The amount of
these bonds is not large for great and
wealthy city like this, and even if they were
not secured by such a satisfactory endorse
ment as that of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, there ought to be no difficulty in
the disposal of them. AS it is, they are as
safe as any securities in the market, aud
there is consequently no excuse, especially
for those who viii be directly
benefited by the proposed line of steamers,
if they are not all taken at an early day.
If the company can obtain the money
represented by these bonds it will be able
Immediately to commence building its vessels,
and in a very short time number of noble
steamships will be travelling between the
port of Philadelphia and Europe, and we will
obtain a commercial advantage over New

The Martyrs of Neglect.

1t Is not too much to say that tens of thou
thousands are suffering from biliousness,
indigestion, constipation, periodical fevers,
general debility and nervous affections, who
might be restored to perfect health within
a month or less by the use of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. The multitudes who have
been cured of these and other ailments by
the use OF this well-known specific are
always ready to testify to i's virtue as a
preventive and remedy. They are spread
over the whole country; they are eager to
praise and recommend 1t and vel, notwith-
standing its vast popularity there are many
invaliis, and many who are continually
exposed TO the epidemical diseases, against
which it is sure protection, who, either
through Indifference or incredulity, neglect
to seize the opportunity to cure and means
of prevention, which they have only to
reach out their hands to obtain. This Is
strange; 1t is one of the anomalies OF hui
man nature which 1t is impossible to &C.
count for or explain. 1t is, however, quite
certain that every day the number of these
Martyrs of Neglect is diminishing. This is
proved by the statistics of the sales of the
great remedy. During the present fall the
demand for it has increased beyond all pre-
ce1nt. 1t seems as II in the end the entire
community would realize the fact that
when all other medicines prescribed for the
above complaints fail, il can and does effect
a cure. AS a protection against the diseases
most common at this season, there Is moth.
ing comparable with il.

Highway Robbery In Ohio.

Mr.. Reece, a merchant of Canal
Winchester, on Thursday last being in
Carroll, was asked by friend to carry
$500 TO Wine hester to pay a note then
due. At first he objected, as he was
obliged 10 travel at night, but finally
consented. The money was counted
in the presence of several persons, and
Reece put the money in his pantaloons
pocket. Going to the barn for his
horse and wagon he changed the money,
and secured it between the waist OF his
pants and drawers. Near Lockvllle
without seeing his assailant, he was
struck senseless with a club and fell
back insensible in his wagon, and re-
NAMED in this condition until hi:
horses brought up four miles from the
place of attack, in front OF the livery
stable in Winchester where they
belonged. His pockets were emptied
often dollars and an oroide watch, but
the three hundred dollars was secure
Suspicion rests on two men who saw
the money counted. Reece was severe
ly, though not dangerously, wounded.

j43, or nearly two hundred less than
