From Cuba.

HAVANA, Dec. 2s.-The insurg-
ents attacked Mayori On the night
of the 18th inst. The town was in
defenceless condition, the regulars
and volunteers being absent. The
man-of-war Hulva landed her ma
rines and sailors, who drove out
the insurgents, but not before the
latter had sacked several houses.
In the attack twenty Spaniards
were killed. The insurgents sue
ceeded in carrying off their dead
and wounded. On the night of the
10Th, during the absence of the
troops on an expedition, the insurg-
ents, under the command of Vicente
Garcia, entered the town of Hol-
quin and captured Fort Perriquera.
The Holquiu volunteers had been
previously ordered to march into
the lou 10 replace the troops
withdrawn. AS they approached,
not aware that it had fallen into the
hands of the enemy, they received
a heavy fire from the insurgents
The volunteers and a few regulars
subsequently attacked the insurg-
ents, and messengers were dispatch
cd to recall the troops. Operations
were suspended till daylight of the
10Th, when the insurgents withdrew,
sacking six establishments and a
number OF private houses. A
Spanish lieutenant colonel and ma
jor and several other officers were
killed. Reports as to the total loss
Of tho Spaniards are conflicting.

Too Fast.

For the past week many of the
citizens of this place, undoubtedly
under the impression that the small
poX exists nowhere except in Ape
na. have taken their families anu
left the place for the time being, to
escape the disease. They do not
sop 10 consider that the smallpox
prevails TO n considerable extent
throughout the north, and that go
where they will they are as liable 10
run into a locality where it is as
bad, or nearly so, as it is here. 1t
looks to us like jumping out of the
frying pan into the fire. It is re-
ported at Detroit, Port Huron. Bay
City. Saginaw and in fact nearly
all through the State. Also in
- tie larger cities in the east and
west, and in Boston and New York
the deaths are from fifty to 300 per
week.
In our opinion our citizens may
Just as well remain at home and do
all in their power to drive the con-
tagion to the wall, as to attempt to
run away from it, and then be dis
appointed by retreating from q
battalion to meet an army.

Vaccination.

Feeling deeply the Importance Of
stopping the smallpox in our city
we think it our duty to urge every
person to be vaccinated as soon as
they can Every physician knows
that-it is of the greatest benefit,
and from al that We can learn from
medical authorities on the subject,
we conclude that if people are
properly vaccinated they will es-
cape, or at the most, have the dis
ease verylight. We publish an ex-
tract from Xupons -Nagu~it1e for
January, 1871, which we hope ev-
cry one will read and profit there
by:
an )st of our readers are aware
Of the extent to which the small
poN has ravaged France, and es-
pecially Paris, and for the contin-
ued discussion of remedies and
indications of the disease. In re-
spouse to a request from the Minis
ter of the Interior to the Imperial
Academy of Medicine the follow
ing statements of established facts
was returned: First, vaccination is
a preservative against SIN; IL pox /;
second, in every instance, after Il
certain time, revaccination is eXpc-
dent to secure complete exemption
from contagion third, revaccina-
ton is an absolute security from
danger; fourth, revaccination is
useful at all ages fifth, it can be
employed without inconvenience
during the existence of the cpl
dcmic, and it is perfectly well IS
tablished that in certain localities
in the bosom of families, in
Neutrality-suspicious., and other agglo-
merations of individuals-it has
succeeded in air,sting upon the
spot an epidemic just begun
sixth, the actual epidemic of small
poX, which prevails i'll Paris and
other points of French territory,
has supplied a most convincing
proof of the protective power OF
revaccination; finally. it was sta
ted that in various army corps, and
especially in the Garde dc Paris,
and in many public and private es-
adjustments, particularly in some
OF the municipal schools, the small
pox was entirely checked after re-
vaccination; and also that the
latest statistics, especially those
collected in the civil hospitals OF
Paris, prove in the most positive
manner that persons recently re-
yaccinated have been attacked only /
on a very small proportion, and
very lightly, and so as not to figure
in the statistics of mortality. 1t is.
therefore, concluded that it is in
the highest degree important, both
in the interest of the individual
and of the public, to continue to
extend in every possible way the
practice OF revaccination."

Horrible Accident.

CINCINNATI, Dee. 2S.-At the
iron works in Ironton, Ohio, yester.
day, Ellis Moore, James VcnterS
and Andrew Diles entered three
boilers, which had been disconnect-
ed from the rest Of the battery, foi
the purpose of cleaning them
They opened the mud valve and
allowed the water 10 escape, but
neglected to close it. The engin-
eer, who did not know of the
connection between this valve and
the one attached to the battery,
turned Oh the steam from the latter,
instantly filing the empty boilers
through the connection pipe.
Venters and Diles managed to
crawl out so badly scalded as to
cause the death of both in few
hours. Moore heard the steam
coming and retreated TO the farther
end of the boiler and escaped uu-
hurt.

Great Fire i'm New York.

The New York World says OF
the fire which broke out in the six.
story brick building Nos. 81, 50
and 80 Center street, which is to-
tally destroyed:
The fire originated in the third
floor, occupied by Dun, Barlow &
Co, job and news paper printers.
and was caused it is believed by a
can of benzine, which in some mys-
FERROUS manner became ignited.-
So rapidly did the flames spread
that the employees of the establish
uent were unable to save even their
own property, and several persons
are almost known to have lost their
lives. The fifth and sixth floors arc
occupied by Anderson, Archer g. Co.
as a bool1bindery. On these floors
there were at work some sixty girls.
who were ignorant of the existence
Of the fire until they were almost
surrounded by the flames. Two
young men from one of the lower
floors, who were aware of the per.
ilous position Of the girls, ventur.
ed at the risk of their own lives tC
rush up the stairs and give the
alarm. Almost simultaneously with
their alarm the fire appeared

story floor, and in ON instant every.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20.-Last
Friday the Pioche-Ph9niX Mining
Company Of Nevada took posses
sion of 100 feet of ground recently
worked 10y the Raymond-Ely Com

while Thos. Ryan, Phoenix work
man, was overlooking the balricade
one of the Raymond-Ely men shot
him through the head, killing him

Gan SIN" AND THE IRoS-MEN.- Washing
ton, February 5.-The equanimity of the citi.
Gems of Beaver county, Pa, who are engaged
in industrial pursuits has been very much
disturbed by the importation of one hundred
and sixty-fve Chinese laborers for q large
manufacturing establishment in that county.
Two hundred more Chinese are understood
to be On their way for employment In the
same establishment. The workingmen OF
Beaver county complain that the low wages
and long contracts made with the Chinese is
a manifest attempt to revive the institution
OF slavery. They have set forth the facts in
an elaborate petition now before the House
Judiciary Committee, and in which they ask
the passage of law prohibiting any further
importation of Chinese laborers under con-
tracts made in China, or else authorize the
free importation of all such articles as are or
may be produced in the United States by
Chinese labor. This seems TO be carrying
even Pennsylvania protection ideas to the
extreme.
