The head of the State Department is reported
to have said the other day that the only thing
wanting to constitute the HERALD a first class

THE WAR IN CENTRAL ASIA telegram,
special to the HERALD, from the seat of war
in Central Asia reports that the Russian
commander, General Kaufman, has lately
gained an important victory over the Khivans,
and that his troops were again in advance for
the objective point of concentration. The
HERALD report is confirmed by a war
Office bulletin which was published in st.
Petersburg last night, announcing a rout Of
the Khivans and the continued onward march
of Kaufman. The Khivans appear to have
mustered in considerable force, and to have
come out from their stronghold to meet the
invaders of the Khanate 1t may be that the
war is not yet ended, although it is scarcely
doubtful that the Muscovite will triumph in
the end.

garding outrages on American citizens in
Cuba his easy conscience on one point
Is remarkable and curious-namely, his per-
feet satisfaction when nothing beyond the
manifold horrors of Imprisonment, solitary or
otherwise, are experienced by the victim. The
sensation of having prisoner of Chillon or
an immured Monte Cristo on hand may be
esteemed luxury by some morbid natures /;
but that Secretary of State can be COM
placently cheerful because the inquistorial
torture does not end in the prisoners death
will not be satisfactory to proud nation,
when it is understood fully what barbar-
ism and cruelty are practised in Cuban
prisons by the authorities on the UNCERTAINTIES
weakly and wantonly left at their mercy.
This neglect of one Of the highest interests
of the nation-the protection of our flag abroad
and all who can claim its protection must
cease at some time. Neither America nor
England can long tolerate the studied inso-
lence and outrage of the Cuban authorities.
The conduct of the latter, ifpersevered in, must
involve one or the other country in war with
Spain. This is certainly something we do not
desire ; but the persistent folly of Spain's
officials in Cuba may, at any hour, make it
impossible for either country to decline the
responsibility of combat. Senior Figueras
was right when he informed HERALD cor
respondent that the United States were the
best friends of the Republic in Spain Our
wishes for the spread of republican institu-
tons on this Continent and in Europe
make us naturally lean towards people TAX
ing the path of equal rights and freedom, and
the Spanish Republic should take care to keep
q curb upon her officials in the Antilles, who
work SO strenuously to ALLEVIATE all friendly
feeling here and bring the mother country
to the verge Of destructive war.
We do not desire the annexation
of Cuba to the United States. We should
prefer to see her govern herself, if that
is the desire of her people, or to see her re-
main with republican Spain should that
alternative please the Cubans. But Spain
must teach her officials in Cuba the lesson of
respect for the citizens of other States before
she can be certain that the insurgents will
be the only armed foes she may have
to meet in the field The Secretary
Of State will find that the dignity Of the
United States cannot be sustained in manner
satisfactory to the people at large in cases in
volving the liberty or the life of citizens by
tortuous diplomacy that does little or nothing
towards gaining its protested object. More
''grit" is wanted.

WEST POINT.
The Dinner and Ball Given by the
Cadets Last Evening.


The expectations formed by experienced West
Pointers were fully realized in the Alumni dinner
this evening As gathering ofdistinguished officers
OF the army who have been educated here it was a
great success. General Sherman General Franklin,
General Upton, General Gibbon, General Tyler and
a host of Others formed galaxy of lesser stars
round the great light of the army. 1t was the
largest and certainly the most distinguished assem-
bage OF officers OF the United States Army who
have made for themselves bright names in his
tory. General sherman, in speaking for the army,
alluded TO the fact that honor in the army was
something very different from honor in politics.
The President smiled when called upon to speak,
and took refuge behind huge cigar. General Glib.
bon was the lie and soul OF the Alumni, and his
services were well appreciated.
The ball az the Mess Hall was a brilliant and
splendid affair." Five hundred people enjoyed
themselves reckless Of corns and scornlng
the tender feeling OF bunons. President
Grant and party were present for q short time.

Our Streets-Threatencd Strike Of tn,

Our Streets-Threatencd Strike OF the
Sweepcrs.
If ever we have need of scrupulously clean
streets it is now. With the mercury among
the eighties and the sun pouring its fercest
rays into our cutters during the long days of
June, there is no sure defence against poison
GUS exhalations except thorough work with
broom, hoe and shovel, with free use of water
to scour the roadways and flush the sewers.
Cholera is reported in various direc-
tons, and, even if it should not visit the At
lantic coast, we may be certain that uncleaned
streets will breed diseases very little less fatal
In this connection our citizens will be sur
prised and indignant to learn that the men
who have been employed by the Police De-
pertinent in street cleaning are threatening a
strike in consequence Of inability to get their
pay For nearly two months, it is said, they
have received 40 wages, and they and their
families are suffering for its Lack to the deep
discredit Of some high city officials who have
blundered-or worse No one of the munich
pal obligations should be more promptly met
than the hard earned pay of those laborers,
and no other branch of the public service is
more imperatively necessary than their work
of keeping the streets free from filth and
screening the city from pestilence. Not day
should be lost in paying these laborers, and
not an hours remission should occur in the
vigorous prosecution Of their duties.

A WESTERN BILLIARD MATCH,

CHICAGO, H., June II, 1873
The billiard match tonight, between Ubassy.
the French expert. and John Bessenger, OF this
city, was the most remarkable exhibition Of
skill in that line ever witnessed in the
West. The game was a French or three ball carom,
Ubassy playing 500 points to Bessinger's 500, for
stake OF $3.50 side. There was an audience OF
game was won by Ubassy in forty-dve innings,
the score standing-Ubassy, 500; Bessinger. $40.
ubassy's average was II 10 and his largest runs
The run OF 116 was the forty-fourth inning
Bessinger's game was a plucky one, his average
being s 10 He made a run OF 50 and another OF "a

The Governmental Hiatus iU Spain
Confusion in Madrid.

Confusion in Madrid.
The latest kilograms from Madrid announce
that Senior Figueras having resigned his execu-
tive authority, had taken leave of the Span
ish capital and journeyed to Huesca,
ON his way to France The abroga-
ton of authority by the Ministry
and Chief of State produced hi
atus in the administrative history of the
day. Political partisans rushed forward to
fill it, and faction became, apparently, more
powerful than the law. Madrid was convulsed
with one of its violent spasms OF chronic agi-
tation. Bands of politicians, who style them
selves ''irreconcilables,' were opposed by
others OF an opposite stripe until the streets of
the municipality became, as it were, red-hot
under the tread of demagogues, who were
loud in their demand for revolutionary change.
After having created vast 'amoyslt of alarm,
among foreigners particularly, the demonstrate
ors cooled down. The Spanish capital was, as
reported by cable, again calm at a late
hour last night, but it is quite evident,
Judging from our dispatches from London,
that John Bull is not by any means satisfied
with the present appearance of affairs in
Spain and Mr.. Bull has had very consider
able experience in the matter Of the progress
of public affairs on the Iberian Peninsula.
The Cortes appear to be the deposit
tary of legitimate power, but whether the
Legislative body will assume healthy and
vigorous action in the crisis remains to be
seen. At the moment when our latest tele-
gram was forwarded from Madrid yesterday
the armed factionists had withdrawn from the
streets, and it was reported thatall parties had
agreed to accept the Ministry constituted by
the Cortes on Wednesday.

Honors TO the Remains Of the Late
Minister Orr.


When, in the Winter Of 1S60-61, James T..
Orr, in company with ex-Governors Barnwell
and Adams of South Carolina, entered the
city of Washington as one of the Commits
sioners from the Palmetto State to the govern
ment of the United States, demanding re-
lease from the federal compact, the result of
our great Revolution Of 7G, he could scarcely
have imagined that at this date, after war
occasioning frightful loss Of men and means
on both sides to prove the error Of his
views his remains would have been honored
as they have been in the always patriotic city
of New York. Yet such is the fact. In the
City Hall yesterday the remains OF our
late Minister to Russia lay in state un-
der the special guardianship Of the Knights
Templars, Masonic body OF which he was a
much respected member But it was not
alone in regard to his membership with that
grand Order that led to this public and official
demonstration in his behalf. 1t was in conse-
quence of his prompt acquiescence in the re-
suits of the war and his unquestionabe fealty
to the Union as restored that led President
Grant to appoint him Ambassador of the
United States to one Of the most potential
governments of Europe. And in the same
spirit the government Of the metropolis of the
country has rendered honors TO his remains.
His Masonic brethren, with devotedness that
has no parallel in the history Of the Order in

the past, and guarded the remains of their
illustrious brother as they would their most
estimable jewels. The ceremonies and pro-
cession to-day will be under the direction Of
the Masonic brotherhood Honored in life, in
death the memory of the late James L.
Orr will ever be fondly cherished by those who
knew the goodness and greatness of his noble
heart and soul.

nifty OA EunAshAhS inc uouOcs-
Sound Views.
Our dispatches from the scene of the late
Modoc war containing on interview with
General jefferson c. Davis will be read
with live interest throughout the country,
and the opinions expressed by that old
Indian fighter on the Modoc difficulty, as it at
present stands, will be heartily endorsed. We
have repeatedly sustained the view that the
savage, as we are blessed with him, looks on
the paraphernalia and parade of peace COM
missions with scarcely disguised contempt;
and we can the better understand the force
of General Davis statement that 'the
Indians do not recognize the jurisdic-
ton of civil or military courts because they
are incapable Of understanding their work
ings These Modocs cannot comprehend what
is meant by Court. They have been inter-
rogated on that subject, and they would
regard Court trial, with its techni-
calities, testimony, &C., as kind of jugglery,
and if convicted and sentenced to death
could not be made to understand that
justice figured in the business at all They
believe they have committed deeds that merit
death, in fact, are real murderers, and have
daily expected to be hanged" And so he
sensibly made up his mind to save
the murderers world Of wonder and
several months time by hanging
number of them, whom he would specially
select for the gallows. His objection to hand
ing them over to the Oregonian Courts is
comprehensive; for he judges the pris-
oners' chances from the murder Of the
four harmless old men few days since.
A military commission will, be believes, take
six months to arrive at conclusion, and,
moving that proper overawing effect
could be produced on the neighboring
tribes through q select number of mill
tary hangings, he chose the latter course
as ''cutting the Gordian knot He
read q document to Captain Jack which was
at once an indictment and sentence,
and was preparing list of murderers
for execution from his large stock
when courier arrived with orders
that tied his hands The grave part
Of the matter is that wholesale massacre of
the prisoners by the Oregonians may, at any
time, take place, and the ''peace party at
Washington may find themselves to blame for
the slaughter of the innocent as well as the
guilty.
