rurpr 1s srr1.L HOPE.

After all that has been published in
reference to the back-down of the Cuban
civil war, it appears from very late adj
vices that the struggle is moi, yet ended,
and that the Cubans are likely to carry
matters their own way The New
York Sun says that the Havana papers
have for a month past been positively
interdicted from publishing word about
the military operations on the island
but enough has leaked out to prove that
in the whole Central and Eastern Depart
ments no vestige of Spanish dominion
remains except in the seaports. In
Havana itself soldiers are daily arriving
by hundreds; they are not, however,
the long expected reintorcements from
Spain. but the sick and wounded,
for whom there is no accommoda-
ton in the overflled hospitals Of
the ports in Camaguey and Oriente. In
the far east-in the jurisdictions of
Guantanamo and Santiago = General
Maxine Gomez holds full sway. More
than fifteen hundred negroes from the
sugar and coffee estates Of that region
have Joined his banner. He has beaten
Colonel Campillo in three separate en-
gagements, and the latter has been
broken for cowardice. Daily requisi-
tons on Las Villas and Camaguey are
made for fresh troops, but it is imposs-
BILE to spare a man. The Cubans hold
to-day fully two-thirds of the island, and
from present indications they will before
long extend their rule over the remain
ing portion. The last Spaniard will
probably be driven from the island,
while Mr.. Fish is contriving, in concert
with the Spanish Minister ways and
means for the suppression Of the revolu

cession of extensive .robberies having
been lately committed in the establish
ment of Giles, Wales & Co.'s American
watch factory, at West End, the proprie-
tors caused the arrest of one Of their
employees, yesterday, named Sapher. He
admitted his guilt, and gave information
duplicating a number Of other employees.
Three men named Hinkley, Owen and
Weston were arrested. The former is
accused of stealing over two hundred
jewels. Six other employees were ar
rested later in the day. The thefts,
which have probably extended over a

nRues ANN MISTAKES.

The New York World has these re-
marks on a very important subject;
Nearly every day some new instances Of
poisoning by an apothecary's error in
compounding prescription is reported,
the latest being the death of a child in
Washington, in whose physic opium was
accidentally substituted for rhubarb; and
this, like all preceding blunders of a
similar nature, furnishes several jour
nails with text whereupon to preach a
homily on the immense advantages to
be derived from the rigorous examina-
ton of druggists clerks. 1t is entirely
overlooked that such mistake arises
not from ignorance but from careless
ness, and that possible careless
ness can not be detected by a board
of examiners. The most incompe-
tent of druggists assistants, if he
can read the labels on his employer
bottles, cannot mistake opium for rhu-
barb; while on the other hand the best
educated pharmacist, if he do not take
the trouble to read the aforesaid labels,
but takes the first bottle that comes to
hand, is likely to dispense the wrong
substance. 1t is wise to adopt some
means of ascertaining the knowledge
possessed by persons who deal in such
dangerous commodities as drugs; but it
is foolish to expect that by such means
we shall succeed in averting perils which
are due merely to want of care. These
are to be guarded against only by the
inhiction of severe penalties in every
case where injury is done by negligence.

Our President drops gems from his

WASHINGTON, September PIN the
contest for the nomination for Governor
before the Republican State Convention
of Massachusetts,, it has been freely as
serted that the President and some mem
Der of his Cabinet were secretly favor
ing the nomination of Ben Butler, and
that Federal officers in the State were
quietly instructed TO act likewise. This,
however, is believed to be utterly devoid
Of truth. Neither the President nor
any member Of the Cabinet have ex-
crossed any such preference, and so far
as the President and Mr.. Boutwell, are
concerned, both have scrupulously alb
stained from any expression or action
inconsistent with entire neutrality.

The Democracy of New England, in
the hot-bed of protection, are sound upon
the tariff question. The late Democratic
State Convention in Massachusetts,
adopted the following resolution:
Resolved, That the tariffs upon i'm
ports disturbs the natural distribution
Of the rewards Of labor, by taking a
share of wages to swell the profits of
capital. We therefore urge q reform in
taxation which shall restore the equit-
able relations of profit and wages, re-
lease trade from its shackles, restore
our wasted industries, and lay the bur
den of government upon each in pro-
portion to his strength; and, as one
important means to this end, we demand
a tariff for revenue only, and not for
the protection of monopolies for the OPP
of the people.
