LOCAL AFFAIRS.

A GREAr OuIRAor Considerable excite
mcnt was err ated in this city GA Monday af'
fernoon last, By the reported inhuman treat
inent Of colorcd man. who was suffering
from small poN Mr.. Wilson, the Steward 81
the Alnshouss,, gave Us The following Ihcts IN
regard 10 the case; Outing his ebsenee from
tho Almshouse Two men drove up 70 the house
aud stated to one Of the employees that they
had sick man whom they wished 20 leave al
that institution, but rs they had noorder from
the County Commissioners, and Mr.. Wilson
being absent he refused to take him. They
insisted on leaving him, but be still refused (;
and while they were converting in regard 10
the matter Mr.. W. arrived, and they met with
the same reply from him. They started 10
town for the purpose Of seeing the Commits
sioners, hut as soon as they left the gate lead
ing into the yard, they pulled the colored man
out and laid him on the snow on the roadside
and drove OF. Mr.. Wilson having observed
their actions, kindly took themanin and had a
place prepared for him in an out house. He
then informed the Commissioners Of the fact.
who al once ordered him to be properly cared
for. The colored man and those who brought
him were from Freedom. There was no excuse
for such treatment Of the poor, unfortunate
negro, as We were informed by the Commits
sioners that IL they had been apprized of the
circumstances beforehand, they would haye
made preparations for him. II there is any
way in which the parties who acted in such an
inhuman manner can be reached by the law,
we hope the proper authorities will see TO il,
and impose upon them the seyerest penalty.
In order to be prepared for such cases and
other contagious diseases, the Commissioners
are having erected suitable building, which
will be finished in few days, and viii be
used as permanent hospital.
The colored man alluded 10 above, died
sometime during Tuesday night Mr.. Wilson
has taken every precaution TO prevent the
disease from spreading among the inmates OF

Mr.. Fowble's dog made several attempts to
bite him, but he received no injury, owing to
a heavy pair of boots.

REPUBLICAN, SPAIN shows no more
disposition to give Cuba her independence
than did the Monarchy. President Figueras
grandly says that the Antilles are to be
held as pledge of perpetual union between
the old world and the new. CASTELAR,, Min
ister of Foreign Affairs, gives public inti-
nation that the new government will
expect the Cubans to be content now
that they are under Republican govern
ment. He is disposed to be more magnan-
imous than Gorilla in granting reforms,
and says that arrangements for these will
be made when Deputies from Cuba have
arrived. Meanwhile, the Cuban patriots
have not decided whether they will be
satisfied with the freedom of Spanish rule,
or whether they will insist on independence
as well as the Republic.

ACCORDING to the Baltimore Gazette,
the Virginia salt works were discovered in
a singular manner. The place was once a
vast swamp, noisome, Shiny and danger
Gus. Deer, hogs. and cattle would often
be found dead there. Vapor continually
arose from the sodden ground. So lonely
was it that it got the reputation of being
haunted and when an adventurous hunter
settled upon it and claimed it, he found no
one to dispute his right. A Spectator,
suspectlng its value as salt field from
various indications, bought it for rifle
and pony. He opened it and cleared it,
and dug his wells. It was a profitable
business and rapidly increased. During
the war, it is said, there was often thou.
sand wagons waiting at one time to load.
The Federal troops at one time destroyed
the works, but never held them for any
time. They now turn out twenty-four
hundred bushels of salt per day.

Carolina Legislature, or any of the other mo-
toriously swindling legislatures ofthe South.
By every principle of political ethics es-
eablished as between belligerents, the
interest on the State debt should have been
treated as suspended during the war. All
elementary writers agree upon the correct
ness Of this rule as between bellige.
rents, and many Of them go so far as to re-
gard it an equitable obligation as between
citizens Of the same state or nation.
All interest must be paid out of
the surplus products of industry.
In war all industry is suspended
except such as is absolutely needed
for subsistence, and no productive use can
be made of the capital loaned by the cred
itor. War not only scourges and desolates
the earth, but it snatches capital from in
dustry, and renders it valueless for the
time being, if it does not utterly destroy
it. Hence, interest is suspended as just
and equitable rule between debtor and
creditor during war, without regard to the
business of the cause or canses giving rise
to it.
But the immaculate funders Of 1871,
were so eager to fasten indebtedness on
the people of the State that they did not
stop to inquire into this just and most
equitable rule, and seek its application in
the interests of Virginia taxpayers, but
they compounded the interest in such q
way as to take, during the period the
bonds had to run, over seventy
two millions out Of our people in
interest upon sum of interest which
should never have been recognized as OBJ
ligatory upon them to pay. We car
never be induced to advocate a scheme
which is so full of fraud, unrighteousness
and iniquity as this.
| We shall consider some other objec
tons against the scheme tomorrow.

The action of the Connecticut Democ-
racy on Wednesday completes the array for
the April election. Following platform
that reaffirms the doctrines laid down at
Baltimore and Cincinnati last summer and
laid out last fall; that gamers all the SLAM
ders of the day and welcomes Spanish
republicanism with a hope that it will
speedily be shorn of Cuba, the convention
nominated Hon. Charles R. Ingersoll, of
New Haven, for Governor, as was antic-
pated, against Hon. Henry P. Haven.
of New London, the Republican
nominee. The state is now Republic
lean, with Governor Jewell as chief
magistrate. The Republican ticket
is conceded to name men of unexceptiona-
able character and good abilities. The plat
form is strong. The Democracy have
sought to retain the Liberal vote by adj
hitting delegations to the Convention and
embodying what will be acceptable to them
in the platform. The Congressional repre-
sentation is expected by both parties to
remain as it now is. The election, though
almost exclusively of local interest, will
show how many of the Liberal wing can
be tolled into full communion with the
Democracy, and the campaign will be
warm. But Tweed's downfall in New
York subtracts SO much from the strength
