ter Sickles to enter with the Spanish Govern
ment strong protest against the proceedings
at Santiago, characterizing them as an out
rage on civilization and humanity, and an IN
suit to the American Government. General
Sickles replied that he had had an interview
with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and acted
in accordance with his Instructions; ana, 1ur-
ther, that the Spanish Government was clearly
impressed with the sense of its responsibility,
and had promised to act in such manner as
would show its disapprobation of the proceed
ings at Santiago, and at the same time its
friendship for this Government.
Two German steamers recently sailing from
New York received a large number of applca-
tons from emgrants, which had come out
by Them to work their passage back, some OF
them offering all the money they had left for
the privilege. SO many men are out of en-
ployment that the newly-arrived emlgrants
have been unable to procure work, and the
panic will thus prove a serious bar to immi-
grafton.
The accommodation train from Brownsville,
Tenn, for Memphis was thrown from the
track near the former place on the morning OF
the 18th, by a bar of iron that was tied on the
track, and the engine and one car were wreck
ed. Only one passenger, lady, was seriously
injured, as fortunately the engineer discovered
the obstruction in time to apply the air brakes
and check the speed of his train, else all on
board would probably have been killed or
wounded.
News was received in Washington on the 18th
to the effect that the balance of the crew of
the Virginius had been shot, making IL in all.
The Associated Press dispatch says the capture
of the Virginius and the shocking barbarities
perpetrated by Spanish authorities at Santiago
de Cuba, formed the subject of serious con
sideration in the Cabinet on the 14th, and
definite action toward maintaining the
dignity of the United States in the existing
complications taken. II was semi
officially stated on the 14th that the demands
made on the Spanish Government by the
United States were of such a nature that it
would be impossible for the former to accept,
and that it would result in rupture between
the two powers. The demands of the United
States id been transmitted by telegraph to
Minister Sickles at Madrid.
Orders were received at the navy yard in
Boston on the 14th to fit out the frigate Brook
Ign so that she can sail on the 18th of Deem

to be got in readiness for sea.
The outstanding legal-tenders on the 1tth
amounted to $780,, 81 gu.
1t has been recently decided in the United
States Court at Indianapolis, that a droyer
whose leg had been broken in an accident on
the Indianapolis Il st. Louis Railroad had a
valid claim for damages, although he rode
free, and the company was mulcted in $1,000
damages for his benefit.
A dispatch to the New Orleans Times, of
the 18th, from Colfax, La, states that seven
of the nine negroes who were implicated in
the recent Grant Parish affair had been killed
by the citizens.

Treasurer Spinner's Report.

WASHINGTON. November f.
Treasurer Spinner, in his thirteenth an
nual report, says the falling off in the
receipts for the past year, from customs.
amounts to SOS, $50, 764, and from internal
revenue, $16,912, 786, while the expendi-
lures are largely in excess of those of
previous years. These facts combined
make an interesting subject for reflection,
the study of which will make good
guide, II not warning to Congress, and
the Administration officers as we'll of the
course that shall be pursued in the future.
Either taxation must be increased, an ex-
pedlent that can hardly be thought of, or
the appropriations must be kept largely
below the receipts. Otherwise the rapid
reduction of the public debt will be ar
rested, If not abandoned.
treasurer Spinner says few if any be-
lleve the value of the currency, as fixed
by law, stands at an amount that is exact
~ right. 1t must be obvious to all who
have an interest in, and who have watched
the course OF business, and the financial
returns OF the country, that there are
many times when the real wants of the
country demand, and there should be, an
increase OF currency, and that there are
other times when the safety of all legiti-
mate business requires that it should be
largely decreased. What is really needed
is currency so flexible as to at all times
accommodate itself to the business wants
OF the whole country. After arguing the
question, the Treasurer says that for the
existing notorious evils remedy should
be found and interposed, which remedy.
he thinks, is the issue of legal-tenders
convertible into bonds at low rate of in
terest, 3 65.10O being the rate most likely
to satisfy all conditions to be met. He
thinks 1t more than probable that it will
not require an increase of the bulk of
legal-tenders above the present legally au-

or five would be set at liberty. The others
would probably be condemned to the chain

districts is enormous. Herkimer, New

1850, 900 pounds of butter, worth in the

ington, Ohio, shipped 100000 pounds of
cheese in 1869, worth 100000. The pro-
ducts Of the dairy are sold for cash, and,
hence, the returns are quick. This indus

large bulk of food into a small compass
