CINCINNATI.

CINCINNATI, May l1.-As Mr.. Hendricks, of
Indiana, has been reported both for and
against the Liberal Republican nominees,
Greeley and Brown, the Enquirer sent a man
to visit him. Mr.. Hendricks authorizes the
Enquirer to publish the following: i will
make no effort to influence the action Of the
National Democratic Convention, and / will
abide by its decision. In view Of the fact that
there has been no concert Of action among
the leaders and prominent men Of the party,
il behooves all 10 move with prudence, caution
and dignity. The question Of endorSing the
Cincinnati nominees or making straight out
Democratic nominations is one that should be
well weighed and carefully considered. It'll i'm
possible at this early day to say what the feel
ing Of the masses Of the Democratic party in
Indiana toward the Cincinnati ticket is. As
far as / can judge, the Democracy Of Indiana
will not occupy any decided ground until
after the meeting of the State Convention,
which takes place on the 18th Of next month.
That convention will doubtless nominate q
straight Democratic ticket. and refer the ques-
ton of the Presidential nominations to the
National Convention. As far as / am con
cerned. 1 feel in duty bound to sustain the
action Of a National Convention, II il nomi-
mates the straight Democratic ticket. and
will support it with all the zeal influence and
ability possess. If ii endorses the nomina-
ton of Greeley and Brown, shall eertaiRly
support that ticket with equal zeal aud energy.
ANY other statement Of my position in regard
to this matter has been made without au-
thOrity."

The LIVINGSTONE EXPEDITION.

For seven long years the English Tx
plorer, Livingstone, has been swallowed
up in the interior of Africa. There is
something peculiar about Arctic and
Equatorial explorers. They seem to
make death a business, and call it an
enthusiastic pursuit of science. The
Polar enthusiast glories in ice water,
glaciers, bergs and seals. His Equato-
rial brother hungers for cannibals, ruins
of long forgotten cities, and the con-
Meeting links between the monkey and
the human family. Seven years since
DIR. Livingstone disappeared on the
African coast, and since that time but
little has been heard of him. Rumors
reached England that the cannibals
had eaten him. Another tale located
him at Ujiji But where was UjUi2
And why not let him remain there?
Livingstone had probably found the UjDi
citizens q most intelligent and attractive
race and had no doubt settled there as
permanent citizen. The English Gov
eminent sent out several little expe-
ditions, each of which failed to find
Uiiji or Livingston. The Americans,
great inventors and discoveries, deter
mined to find both the North Pole and
Uiiii; hence an Arctic Expedition is
now working its way through the ice,
and letters have been received from
Mr.. Stanley, of the New York Herald,
stating that he has found the lost English
man in Africa. But what will he do with
hin2 Can he drag him away by force
from his beloved UjUians2 If so, then
the slave trade is fixed fact again on
the African coast. Let the Equatorial
and Polar explorers alone. Let them
enjoy themselves, as under the American
Declaration of Independence, they are
entitled to liberty and the pursuits of
happiness.

The New York Herald's special cable dis
patch from Madrid says the downfall of the
SGgosta ministry is imminent. The apparent
want Of vigor and the reaetionary tendencies
of Senior Sagosta made him unpopular with all
parties, and strong influence has been set to
work with the king to effect his removal. With
him all his present colleagues will go out to
give place to a new ministerial combination
under the leadership Of Marshal Serrano. As
soon as the Carlist revolt is suppressed Ser
rano will return to Madrid and choose mem
bers for the new cabinet. Of which be will be
the minister President.

WASHINGTON.

WAsHEaros. May 11.-Itis evident that the
only hope Of an early adjournment Of Congress
lies in the abandonment Of the tariff bill
pending in the House. Judging from the slow
progress that has been made with the bill 1t
will take until the FIRST Of June to pass il
through the House. A fortnight would be a
short time for the Senate to act upon it. and
another week will be consumed in harmonic
ing the disagreeinE votes Of the two Houses.
The desire for adjournment before the Phila-
delphia Convention meets Is 90 strong that II
is probable that after another week the debate
on the Dawes bill will be decisive and short,
and the measure Of tariff and tax reduction
will be crowded through by a suspension Of
rules on Monday. In view Of the probability
Of IN course being pursued, most members
are now predicting an adjournment on the 9Th
Of June.

latest particulars of the explosion of the steam
tug Compound last evening: The boiler ex-
ploded with great force, tearing out the bottom
of the vessel and also completely wrecking the
upper works. The cabin was blown to pieces,
and the captain thrown a distance of two hun
dred and fifty feet, and was severely cut and
bruised about the body, rs were also the engi-

Another tug happened to be near at the time
of the explosion and picked the men out Of
