Loss of the Haytien War Stenmer La Repub-
lie, Formerly the American Sterm.hi2
Quaker City. .s.s.
BY the steamer Pert, which arrived at this port
yesterday from Bermuda, We have the news of the
loss of the Haytien war steamer La Republic,
formerly the Quaker City, She reports that the
bark Howard, OF Yarmouth, N. s., Captain Shaw,
bound to Gutenberg, put into ST. Georges Ber-
muda, on the 10th inst. to land the officers and
crew Of the Haytten steamer La Republic late the
Quaker City-forty-seven IN number-which had
been abandoned sixty miles east OF Cape Lookout
on the 18th inst When left by officers and crew she
was on her beam ends, with sixteen feet OF water In
her bges, smoKestacks carried away and hres put
out by the water. 1t said that her boilers had
exploded, but this Is not probable story.
The La Republic, or Quaker City. was built to run
between Philadelphia and Charleston, ana was for
some time in that trade She afterwards found her
way to New York. When the war broke out she
was purchased by the government and did active
duty as q blockader and cruiser. When she was
commanded by Captain j. M. Fraey United States
Navy, she captured the British steamer Adea of the
east end OF Abaco. When hostities ended she was
sold out Of the service and after made the Holy
Land cruise that has been immorta lized by Mark
Twain. She then became the property Of the Hay
tien republic. She has seen some lighting under
her new owners and at last has fallen prey 10 the
winds and waves and now probably, all that is lers
Of her rests quietly at the bottom Of the Atlantic.

full republican sentiment pervades Germany,
and oil high-handed policies will but hasten
the day when that sentiment will be irressti-
BILE. A republic in France would give Ger
man liberals that very courage which they
need. 1t would not be otherwise with Italy
and Spain. II France knows how now to con-
duct herself she may yet, In spite Of her mis-
fortune and weakness, prove the Regeneration
of Europe. Let the French people only look
across the Atlantic aud they will learn the
value Of republican institutions.
