The Shooting of Gen. Ryan and His
Comrades.

Capt. Macarthur, of the British
schooner Brilliant, was an eyewitness
of the execution of Ryan, Varona.
Jesus del Sol, and Pedro Cespedes, and
gives the following account: The Span
iards forced Cespedes and Jesus del Sol
to kneel, in which positions they were
shot in the back. The soldiers next
directed Ryan and Varona to kneel in
the same way, but they refused, and
were seized and thrown down, hand
cuffed all the time. The two victims
begged their tormentors to allow them
to die standing, and having offered
further resistance, they were shot stand
ing. Fifteen officers of the Spanish
army, who had been made prisoners on
the battlefield by Narona, were present
when lie landed, and went to the Govern
or of the city and begged that his life
should be spared, since he had given
them theirs. The acting American
Consul, on hearing that Ryan was to be
shot, waited on the Governor and de-
manded his restoration as an American
citizen, but the Governor refused to
listen, on the ground that the Consul
was not well informed in regard to the
matter. The Spaniards informed the
Consul that they were acting on their
own responsibility, and did not even
intend communicating with Madrid.

A Sample of Hard Times.

The Lawrence Mass. american tells
of a sad case of destitution which has
come within its observation in that city.
A very poor but honest appearing and
prepossessing young man, named Rob-
ert Steel, on his own request, was SEN
fenced to four months in the House of
Correction, in order that he might work
for the shelter it would afford him dur
ing the winter. He had been discharged
from one of the mills early in the sum-
mer, during a reduction of labor, and
having been deserted by his father, and
having no mother, he had during the
intervening months been dependent
upon the charity OF strangers. Without
bed on which to rest, he had been
compelled to seek shelter at night in
barns and other empty buildings, until
the increasing coldness Of the weather
no longer rendered it possible for him
to resort to them. As last alterna-
tive, he gave himself into the custody
of the City Marshal, requesting that he
might be sent to prison, where he
might work for the shelter it might
afford him during the winter. He was
brought into court and sentenced Us
we have stated above. In committing
him, the Judge lamented the circum-
stances necessitating such course, and
said that if at any time any charitable
person offered the young man (who is
only ID employment, he would be given
an order for his release.
The Andrew County Republican. [volume] (Savannah, Mo.) 1871-1876, 1873-12-05
Present Duty.

The way to make easy times is as
clear as daylight.
Let every man or woman who owes
money pay it at once, if possible.
Be willing to make sacrifice in order
to meet promptly all your engage
ments.
Stop grumbling at the faults or mis-
takes of others, and attend faithfully
to your own affairs.
Deal fairly, leniently, and cheerfully
with all persons who owe you or are in
pecuniary trouble.
Ii you are out of debt, thank the
Lord and then go round among your
friends, and enemies too, if you have
them, and render them all the assistance
in your power.
Don't hoard your money; but loan it
or use it to relieve the needy, on the
same principle as you would give bread
to the needy in the day Of famine.
Do what you can in every way to re-
lieve pec,niary distress. to check the
current of financial embarrassments and
restore public confidence.
II you are bank officer or director,
don't be cross a minute. Smile, as
Christian duty, from morning till night.
Give an encouraging word, if possible,
to all, and by all means strain every
nerve to help those who need it.-NeW
York Independent.
