The SANTIAGO MAssACRs-BuREIEL Ell.

The SANTIAGO MAssACRH-BUREIrL E1-
sLAISs.-BURRIEL, the Santiago butcher, has
addressed from Madrid to the Rerue dcs
Iusi1nn1k Ao4saes a letter explaining and de-
DbCSXng his course at Santiago, in which he
,Ates that he acted strictly under the laws
70! Spain, for which he was not responsible,
and under regulations which compelled hirn
TO iufict "prompt and exemplary" punish
ment upon all insurgents, and if the laws Of
Spain were too severe, it vas only for him TO
carry them out, and not to amend them. He
denies having yielded to the menaces OF the
volunteers, or to have disObeyed any order
from NJ. CASTELAR, to suspend the execution.
In correcting an inaccurate statement as to
thc Number shot he intimates that there
we're only fif,y-three shot; and as to the
charge Of unusual rigor in carrying out his
cruel orders, he says that while be might
hive shot them all on Identification" be
gave them all fair and patient trjal-it
taking a "hoie day to try fitty-three men for
their lives-and granted them four days OF
life after their landiug and imprisonment
No consideration whatever could have made
him pause, he remarks, in the execution Of
his orders for the shooting; "and still less
the protests presented wholly without righ
10y the American Consul"
There is really nothing new in his statement
and his defence Is hinged entirely upon hi.
assumed obedience of peremptory laws an,
regulations. His conscience is evidently a
work upon him, and he breads the nam
aud fame OF the cruel butcher Of SANTIAGO

The editor of the Charlotte GazeHe has
recently visited this city. lie says Of us in
his paper:
Richmond, to an outsider, and especially
to one who has not seen ii for months, just
now presents busy appearance. Many mer.
chants are in the city making purchases, and
the streets presented an aspect Of even more
than wonted activity. From the cries OF
alarm which have been raised we had ex-
pected to find the streets nearly deserted and
many OF The stores tenantless. But eWcre
satisfied that Baltimore has not taken all the
business, and despite the stultified action OF
the Legislature with reference to the tax
bill as we'll as the gauge question, the Rich.
mond merchants are not hopelessly despond-
ent nor utterly ruined.
The Merchants of Richn1ond.-We became
more generally acquainted with some OF the
business men Of Richmond than we have
ever had opportunity to become before, anr
| we are most happy here to say that we =
| lieye as a class the business men OF Rich
mord are men Of as comprehensive views,
and high, honorable, and liberal feeling as
can be found in any other city. In all allu-
sons to the tax bill, we heard the sentiment
| expressed, g" II the measure will secure the
| Safety vi lUe Cieuit vi suo SCaLc, VIC VIII
most gladly meet it )" and not unfrequently
did we bear it said, "Givo us the business
and we will pay the tax" BY this ne do
not mean to say that We believe the measure
to be popular; but that the merchants of
Richmond are willing to do their duty in
sustaining the credit of the State. That
there is depression to very considerable
extent, is true. The lack of money, the low
price Of tobacco, and it may be, other causes
have tendency to weaken trade. But We
doubt whether man with cash can do any
better anywhere than in Richmond just now

The New Orleans Picog,ne complains OF
the INJURY done to the working classes by the
indlscrlminate distribution OF supplies, and
says: "A few days ago a gentleman near
Baton Rouge who had engaged hands to

VISITED the mill and found that all, including
the foreman, had left. He had paid them

qulring, he learned that the laborers had gone
TO The agency for the distribution of rations

IS these must be sedulollsly guarded against
by keeping the relief fund and supplies out
of the hands Of the small politicians and by
a careful investigation Of each and every ap.
plication for aid"

Running a Npek on a Ferryboat.

As the Hoboken ferryboat Chancellor
Livingston was on her O'Clock trip
from Christopher street last evening, an
incident took place which spread wild
alarm among the passengers. The cabins
were full of people, and as the boat
nearcd the Jersey side stalwart man,
about "A years of age, rushed through
the cabin TO the forward part of the boat,
brandishiDg large knife and making
lunges Mt several persons, shouting in
wild and ineoherent manner, and threat
ening TO XIII every person he met
Some flew out of his way, others rushed
into the cabins, while several of the
ladies, imagining that som citing more
serious had taken place, scr, amed. with
fright and ran exci,edly through the cab
in. Several men endeavored TO rAsp the
hand of the Infatuated individual, but he
sprang, tiger-like, from among them,
then making desperate plunge toward
man named Edward Crushell who dodg-
ed, but was not quick enough to evade
the blow, and found the knife buried in
his arm. The maniac dragged forth his
murderous weapon, and SET his eyes up
on another person In the crowd, when
several passengers realized the plight in
which they were placed, fell upon him,
wrosted the knife from his hands, after
a sanguinary struggle, and held him fast
until the boat reached the slip. The
captive then grew quite calm, and was
taken into custody by policeman, who
conveyed him to the station house, fol-
lowed by large crowd of people. The
prisoner gave his name as George kolb.
He is engaged In the oyster business,
and resides in First street, Hoboken.
His frenzy is ascribed to liquor, of which
he had freely partaken in New York.
The knife, which he babe fair to use so
destructively, could not be found.
Crushell was removed for medical treat
ment.-NeW York Herald
