CUBA.
The ministerial council of Spain, at its
session yesterday, over which the king
presided, decided on the appointment of a
new Captain General for Cuba whose name
will be announced tomorrow. 1t is TO be
hoped that a less barbarous and blood
thirsty tyrant than Valmasede will be placed
over our ncighboring Island, for nothing
less than this will prevent a collision be-
tween Spain and our government His
last acts of ordering the onslavement of
$1,000 Cinnamon, making war on women
and numbering prisoners, are illustrations
of the crime and folly a bad government
can be capable in dcfyins the progress of
Christianity and the common rights of hui
manty in the 10th century. 1t will be i'm
possible long to avoid collision with this
remnant of eflete monarchy, if the policy
of the Cuban government be not pretty
thoroughly changed. The promise or ra-
then. the offer, of Spain to abolish slavery
on its Island Territory should be kept and
maintained; but If the enslavement of Chi
namen be seriously attempted, on the bor-
dets of our country, where the institution
of slavery has just been thoroughly rooted
out in accordance with the natural prog
ress of human rights in our hemisphere, it
will not and ought not to be tolerated. Gen.
Sickles, our minister at Spain is now here,
and ii is thought crisis will be reached
next week when Gen. Banks and other
members intend to take strong ground in
Congress against Spain in the matter of the
Hornet" &c.

THE HORNET MATTER.

Official dispatches were sent today to Min
lister BLssett, at Port Au Prince, notifying
him that the Government intended to pro-
tcct the Hornet, and convey her safely out
of port with vessel of war if necessary,
and maintaining the position that, if true,
as charged by Spain that she had violated
the neutrality laws, she would be libellcd
on her arrival in an American port.
CABINET MEMBERS VOUCHERS.
An Iowa member of Congress obtained
today from the office of Register of the
Treasury certified copies of vouchers in IA
vor of Senator Harlan during his term of
service, as the Secretary Of the Interior.
These vouchers purport TO be receipts for
carriage hire, engraving of visiting cards,
and other trivial personal expenses. They
are TO be used in the pending Senatorial
contest to secure Haran's defeat. 1t seems
to be u somewhat small specimen of the
smelling business, however it may be
viewed out in the West, where the expense
of living here as a Cabinet officer is per-

his death. His sudden and untimely death
has brought much sorrow to large circle
of relatives and friends.

years cashier of the Richmond Banking
and Insurance company, and at the time
OF his death was cashier of the Plan

also of the Planters National bank of Dam

thoroughly acquainted with the financial
affairs Of the country, and had the bright
est prospects OF future success before him.
Mr.. Davis was elected member of the
Richmond city Council, at the late election,
from Madison ward. He was member
of Dove lodge, A. F. & A. Masons, and
of Old Dominion lodge, X. of p; also an
honorary member Of the Walker Iipht

and Territories in the Union
NEW YORK, June 9th, 1872.
SIR: 1t is popular axiom that the civ
lllzatien of people is indicated by their
treatment of the inferior animals. With
the decline and fall of the Greek and Ro-
man Empires, were associated brutal exhi-
bitlons, at which wild animals were made
to tear each other to pieces for the amuse-
ment of partition and pebian men and
women until at length, the popular taste re-
quired higher sacrifice in the slaughter of
man by his brother man. Amid these cruel
and demoralizing spectacles, the glory and
splendor Of those States were extinguished,
never more to be revived.
AS with that epoch of the worlds his
tory, so with ours. May not the present
wasted and insignificant power and intlu-
ence of the Spanish people be traced to the
material indulgence of their barbarous taste
for bull-fighting? Here at home, too, in
free and progressive America, the seeds of
q like decay and dissolution are sprngine
up, to disfigure the virgin soil of our pros
porous Republic, and the thoughtful and
patriotic, alive to these fatal consequences.
are sounding the note of alarm, and organ
izing into peaceful bands throughout the
country, with view to the enacting of laws
and the creation of societies, whose pur-
pose is mercy to heavens inferior creatures.
which means mercy to mankind as well,
Eighteen States and Territories have al
ready manifested their appreciation of the
benefits of such associations, and would
most earnestly and respectfully request
your excellency to institute such measures
as will best facilitate similar humane inten-
tions within your State and to this end,
would esteem it a privilege if, when any
person or persons may be discovered, will
ling to take the initiative, might be com
with, in order to render the task
more easy, through the experience which
the society is capable of affording. | have
the honor to be your most obedient servant,
HENRY BERGH, President.

Terrible Storm I'm IIlinois-Fearful Dama-
ges to Railroads and other Properly, sc.
Chicago, June S.-Further reports con.
cerning the great storm of Thursday night
in central Illinois, shows that an immense
amount OF damage was done in Peoria.
Fulton, Knox, and other counties in that
section of the State. The destruction of
bridges on the country roads has been al
most universal. In the city of Peoria fenc-
es and trees were blown down, and the
cellars filed with water.
Every railroad leading out Of that city
suffered more or less, and no trains left
there yesterday. The Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy railroad had about four miles
of its track and many bridges swept away.
The Toledo, Peoria and Wabash road also
suffered severely, losing one bridge $50 feet
in length, besides having the entire road-bed
swept away in many places.
In the town of Hilton the damages are
fearful. The town is almost entirely under
water, and barns, stock, &c., have been
swept miles away.
The most singular circumstance of the
storm is the running-up stream of the Hi
nois river. The immense volume of water
that poured in the stream has created a
back water, and there is a strong current
running northward. The river last night
was still rising rapidly, and fears ofseriou:
damage from this source are entertained

The sundry appropriations bill has been
referred by the House to committee of
conference. 1t is hoped the Senate will re-
cede from the force amendment, but in any
event, the minority of the House retains
control of the matter, and the defeat of the
amendment, failure of the appropriation
bill, or an extra session is involved.
SILL LATER.
Washington, June 9.-The Conference
Committee have agreed to strike out the
supplemental force amendment from the
sundry appropriation bill. The best opin-
ION is that the Senate will concur rather
than risk an extra session, which a loss of
the bill involves.
