The N. Y. Heraid exhibits suspicious
symptoms Of doserting Grant. In
one article it questions whether he is
strong enough to defeat a popular
Liberal Republican candidate in North
Carolina and Virginia, while in anoth-
er, we have this strong bit of sarcasm
on the Presidents "taking ways"
The Gramts-Wnlsh,g Gcny while thc
sam shines.
The Presidents family is wise in its
generation, or, in other words, has the
good sense to take advantage of the
fortunate and elevated position which
the head Of it occupies, and why n OF ?
A great deal Of fuss has baen made
about the relatives Of General Grant
being favored in the dlspensation of
Government patronage, but why should
not the President, who receives a
miserable pitiance himself, do what
he reasonably can to promote the wei,
fare Of his relation? The children of
General Grant have been honored in
Europe on account Of their father and
the high position he holds. Other
children Of the President, it is said,
are going to Europe shortly with
friends Of the family.
Nothing could be finer than that
"Friends of the family is good, though
rather funcleal
The Chicago Times of q recent date
gives an interesting account of what
has been done up to this time towards
rebuilding the burnt district of that
city, From this statement we gather
that the works OF reconstruction is
progressing with great energy. The
number Of men employed in the va
rious branches Of industry connected
with the building Of houses is rapidly
and constantly increasing, and within
a month more it is quite probable that
at least two or three times as many
men as are now employed will be at
work. Up to this time three miles Of
buildings have been completed in the
South Division upon the north and
south streets and the buildings in pro-
gress or already erected on the east
and west streets frontage include
nearly as much space. Nearly ali the
structures erected comprise tirst-class
buildings and blocks Of buildings
iron and brick, and iron brick, and
sandstone predominating in their
materials. Many very hansome mar
Bile buildings have been erected. Be
sides this, there are at least temporary
wooden buildings constructed equal
in extent TO another mile In nine
principal streets, including State,
Dearborn, Clark, and La Sale streets,
and Wabash and Michigan avenues,
G,977 buildings are completed, 2,7j6
are half finished, and 1883 have been
begun. Continued advances in the
prices of real estate are also noted,
and there is u large demand for cheap
lots in suburban points in the more
remote parts Of the city, Evidently
the people of Chicago have faith in
their city and its future.

From Havana.

HAVANA, July 3.
The two schooners seen off Cape
Romano, which were supposed to be re-
ceiying cargo from st. Ner, were the
Fannie and an English bark.
1t is now positively known, that the
Fannie landed nothing previous to land
ing her cargo at Perradieya. Accord
ing to the declaration of prisoners, her
landing place was the worst on that
part of the island. Troops killed the
guide of the expedition and the situation
was then unpleasant, as the whole vicin-
ity is wilderness.
Tie united forces of Diaz and Go

and wounding nearly all. The survivors
escaped in the woods. This engagement
is the most successful for the Cubans

convoy had charge of a party of sick
soldiers, who embarrassed their move
ments. The Cubans numbered 1000,
and the Spaniards 700.

tinue to unite.

PouItney.

The extreme heat of the last few
days has been apparent here as else
where. Considerable sickness prevails
among us at the present time, either
from the excessive heat or some other
cause. The air seems to be filled with
impure vapors and should be warning
to the people to look after their pig
stys and other sources from which the
air becomes malarious.
Several summer boarders have re-
Gently arrived lamong whom is the Rev.
Mr.. Kendrick, who is stopping at Bea-
mans Hotel, and several at the Poult-
ney House. The exodus of the Boston
Jubilee folks will send goodly number
here and to Middletown.
The authorities here are enforcing
the liquor law vigorously, but seemingly
without much diminution of the traffic.
The vendors in the article carry on the
trade in shanties in the vicinity of the
slate quarries, and are so shrewd in their
operations as to elude the vigilance OF
the officers and thereby work a good
deal of mischief.
The thanks of the people of Poult-
ney are returned to the Rutland County
Republican Convention, holden at Rut-
land, June q, for giving our town one
of the county committee in the person
of DR. L. d. Ross. This is all Poultney
received in the distribution of the offices

most of it by being proud of that. We
are grateful for small favors, and larger

Indian Delegation mt Washington

WASHINGTON, July !.
The President this afternoon gave au-
dience to the apache delegation of In
dams. They expressed desire to live
at peace with the whites, and said
they wanted houses, shops and farms,
and to be educated at schools. Santa,
one of the chiefs asked for suit of
clothes like the Presidents, cane, pis-
toll, sword and horse, SO as to show his
consequence at home. The President
told them he was anxious to promote
their comfort, but to that end it was
necessary for them to keep the peace,
and he would do everything in his pow
er to protect them from bad white men.
He thought they would have better
home in the Indian Territory, where at
tention could be paid them, in improve
ment, and they would be assisted in
farming and school houses would be
built for them, mechanics would teach
them how to work, and other benefits
rendered them. Several Indians adj
dressed the President, declaring their in
tention hereafter to live at peace among
themselves and toward the whites.
