Van AmDureh & Co.'S Menagerie,

This great show, now on its ty-thrd annual
tour includes in its extensive Geological colIec-
tion several animals never seen in a travelling
menagerie in this country, among which is the
remarkable two-horned Rhinoceros the only
one ever on exhibition ana the Acrobatic de.
partment being entirely devoid of Objectionable
features, embraces some of the best performers
in the profession, thus presenting rare and nu-
merous attractions that entitle it to the first
class rank it has 50 long maintained among
entertainments OF this character. OF this eStab-
lishment the Harrisburg Patriot of May 80 says: :
The exhibition of this diversified, rare and ex-
tensive collection of the animal llingdon at
IIaeted large crowds 10 tne entertainments yes
terday afternoon and evening Arranged under
three tents were 81 animal cages, containing
wild beasts captured in Europe, Asia, Africa
and South America, and embracing many
which no other menagerie in the United States
possesses. Among the rarest nsaE be n,entianed
the two-horned Rhinoceros, secured quite
young. Another anomaly of the animal king
dom in one of the cages was a Hippopotamus
Hog, Cne of the greatest curiosities extant A
Lioness with four fine looking cubs, born in
Dutchess county, N. Y; an African Lion of pro-
digiqHs size and lofty appearance, Nubian IpeX,
Sandman mogntain uapir, pronged 4 Antel9pes,
white Yak of Tartary and several hundred oth-
eF animals constituted the melagerie.
The performance in the arenlo CIRCLE in sep
arate tent was of a superior order of merit, and
occupied about two hours. The programme
consisted of horizontal bar, trapeze, tight rope,
acrobatic and other performance.
The ceiling walking of the Johanoff brothers
was novel in the eatreMe. Mile Nanfretta aisr
tinguished herself on the tight rope. De Jalma
as contortionist AS a whole the performance
was the best we ever witnessed.

THE CUBAN ATROCITIES

The entire civilized world has haor
shocked and appalled, at the intelligence
which reaches us this week from Cuba
Tile inhuman butchery of the nassen.
gers, officers and crew of the s,e,non.
Virginius, will forever stand accmrne ei
in the black and bloody calendar 90
crime. Since the days Of Haynau, tho
Austrian monster, nothing has occurred
of so horrible and infamous character,
In violation of international law, in VIC.
lation OF all the rules of civilized coun.
tries, and in violation of every instinct
of humanity, these people have been
shot down like so many dogs. We
know not what course other nations
may pursue, but there should be no two
sides to the question with the United
States authorities. The Virginius bore
United States flag, and some Of her pas
sengers and crew were citizens of the
United States. Indemnity for the past
and security fol- the future should be
pcremptorily demanded. This means
the instant and summary punishment OF
the tiends who have perpetrated these
butcheries, and there will he no repcti'
ton of the shocking barbarities. Gen.
Grant, we are told, favors such a policy,
but he is controlled by Mr. Fish, the
Secretary of State. 1t is 10 be hoped
that he will now ignore Fish--if Deces-
sary-dismiss him from the Cabinet.
This is no time for old women or weak.
kneed men to occupy such positions.
The public, without regard 10 party,
will sustain the President. We have
never known such unanimity touching
any one thing. All parties and all ma
tionalities now resident in this country,
are agreed as to the course the Covers,
ment should pursue. Will the little
'.gray-eyed man OF destiny" prove equa!
to the emergency, and not only secure
the gratitude of the nation, but leave All
undying name and fame for future gen
erations TO respect l-BaAimoreon.

Iy~ WAR WITH SrAIN.-OVer W
persons. including SO Americans, were
murdered last week by the Spanish au-
thori,ies in Cuba. They were taken
from the Virginius, an American vessel,
which was captured upon the high seas
The Spanish authorities, however, claim
cd that the Virginius was fitted ont in
New York by Cubans residing there,
with munitions and provisions of war
fol- insurgent Cubans. This act OF dep
relation has caused considerable
..splutter" amongst the officials OF our
Government, and will perhaps demand
reparation from the Spanish government.
Our government has ordered all irlgates
20 be nut on war attitude in a prepa-
ration for war, but no aggressive mea-
spres will be taken until the meeting OF
Congress, when perhaps the fur will fly
Spain is also making preparations tor
the attack. Some of our government
officials say that our Navy is not ade-
ouate for the contest, while others say
It is. A few weeks more will develope
what will be done. There must either
he a big fight or big back down.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
STArEs.-The case of John Z. Knode,
plaintiff in error, against Jacob William
son, of this county, has been recently
argued and decided iii the Supreme
Court of the United States The plaini
tiff, Knode, charges that Williamson ON
the 18th of April, 1862, cut loose his
canal boat, called the Ellen Rentch, at
Harrison's Landing on the Potomac
river in Berkeley county, BY which act
the canal boat was destroyed with all
her cargo on board. He values the car
90 and boat at some $4,000. The case
was tried in the District Court of the
United States at Wheeling in May,
1871, and verdict rendered by the jury
in favor of Williamson. The case was
taken to the Supreme Court by writ OF
error the verdict set aside, and Judge
ment reversed because of the exclusion
of some evidence which the Supreme
Court thought ought to have gone to
the jury. The case is therefore sent
back to the District Court for 4 new
trial. 1t was argued for the plaintiffs
in error by G. w. i. Allison, and for
the defendant in error by Hon. &. j.
Faulkner.
1t is understood that the care OF Rob
ert a. Lucas, plaintiff in error against
Peter G. Brooks, Jr., of Boston, myolv-
