LET THERE BE NO CLAsHING.--The
Petersburg Agricultural Fair, the Virginia
and North Carolina Fair at Norfolk, the
Lynchburg Fair, and the Far of the Bor-
der Society at Danville, are all advertised
to open the 22d day of October. This is
unfortunate, as we remarked few days
ago, and will materially detract from the
interest and the success if each adheres to
the time already designated. We suggest
that while there is yet time to make the
change, that these societies come together
through properly delegated representatives,
and agree upon schedule of time for the
exhibitions that will avoid all clashing of
interests. and enable those who desire to
do so to attend each in turn. This step
seems to US to be demanded by the circum-
stances, and we hope it will be taken with
out delay. We suggest that the represent
tatives of the societies named hold their
meeting in this city.

DIR. Houard Attributes His Release to the Anne

VIII Claim Heavy Damages

WIN tIalh lfeaNy Dnmu9es.
Neo York, August 2l.-Dr. Houard,
who has returned from Spanish mprison-
ment, attributes his release to the efforts
OF the American press, to which he returns
the warmest thanks. He thinks Fish might
have acted more promptly, and that the
government, with all the proofs before it that
he was an American citizen, might have
abbreviated, OF at least allcylatcd his SUI
ferings.
llouard says he was loaded with CHAINS
on the transport ship, lodged in the hold,
and when he wanted water he had to go on
deck dragging the chains behind him.
These cXertions and the bad food gave him
the dysentery. The commandment of the
prison at Cadiz was brute and thief.
Some of the prisoners there actually died
from eating the food. Houard had to pro-
cure food outside, for which the command
ant charged double.
No other prisoners were allowed to con-
verse with him, and no letters or papers
were allowed to reach him, while the filth
and vermin were terrible, and he was again
sick but the commandant refused to allow
his removal TO the . hospital, which
was only secured by the efforts of
American Consul Duffy.

during tue week. The Consular Court OF Inquiry,
which examined into the disaster. reached the con-
cIuson that the AHtsTicd set on fire in order TO
give an opportunity 90 rob the Chinese passengers
It appeared that the low pressure OF steam on the
donkey engine at the time was insufficient TO pro-
vide the hose with elective supply of water
Had the FIRE occurred at the steam on the reg
uIar engine boilers would have extinguished it.
Three white men attached TO the ship and a score
or more Of Chinese passengers were drowned
These last showed of the peculArities of their
race in hanging on to their bundles and money bags,
which resulted in the drowning of many who might
otherwise have been saved. All accounts unite in
speaking OF the herOism Of Captain DOane, OF the
Americd and the perfect discipline of the ships
company. Driven by the flames, Captain DOane
iumped overheard and was paralysed by the fall.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
The members of the police force sold
their warrants for their last months pay
at sixty-two cents on the dollar. Why is
this we ask. And we are toIdit is because
the Metropolitan Police tax, to a great ex-
tent, remains uncollected. Why is it IN
collected Because there is an organized
association Of rich men banded together for
the purpose of resisting the payment of
this tax. The Metropolitan system may be
wrong, but we who walk our beats and try
to do our whole duty to the satisfaction of
the public, are not responsible for that.
Most of Us are settled men, and have fami-
lies to provide for-to house, to feed and to
clothe. Our pay, were it cash, would be
only $83 month. Discount that at sixty
two cents and what is left us?
We are wronged and outraged, and while
we have little to do with politics,,we all
have vote, and friends whose votes we
can influence. If our children can not go
to school for want of shoes, we blame the
tax resisters. When the little things are
taken sick and lie suffering in their beds,
and we are unable to buy them medicines,
we ELAINE the tax resisters. Yes, we more
than blame them-we curse them for the
needless sufferings they entail upon our lit
tie ones. We have sympathizing neighbors
and friends, and they join us in our curses.
We are all poor men, and life with US, at
best, is over a rough road. But we can all
vote. We intend to vote. Our neighbors,
clear along to the corner grocery keepers,
who have to wait so long sometimes for US
to pay them what we owe, feel and think
as we do. And they will vote.
We know who these resisters are, and
how well they take care of themselves.
There is Ed. Booth, Hugh McCloskey,
Charles j. Leeds, Judge T. II. Kennedy,
John McPhelin, and good many others
who are before the people for Office. Let
me assure them here and now that they
can not be elected, and might as well get
