week the town of Sibarnicia, the village
of Guarmora. and another small place,
with nearly As, 900 rations, were burned
by the Spaniards, doubtless for the want
of transportation and for fear of falling
into the hands OF the Cubans. The in
habitants of the places burned have ar
rived at Puerto Principe. The villages
of Caledeon and Unas have been cap
tured by Cuhans, and the plantation
Sunnas, near Santa Clara, was sacked by
them. In the hills near Cienfuepos,
there we've lively skirmishes between the
Cubans and counter guerillas. Spanish
accounts says Ave Cubans were killed.
There were reports of serious disasters

ADJUSTMENTS AT THE BAy.-San Fran
ciscans seem to have nice tastes. They
first sprouted into the hoodlumism, then
they took up with murder and suicide as
recreations, and firing of those accom-
plishments, they have commenced wife
beating. We read terrible tale of an
unfortunate woman who was about to
drown herelf and her babe, being driven
to desperation by her husbands cruelty
A brute that would, under almost any
circumstances, raise his hand against a
woman, ought to be sounily scouraged
but man that abuses or i'll treats the
woman that he has sworn to protect and
defend, ought to be punished so severely
as to bs warning to all such brntes as
well as to himself. The Lash, we'll laid
on, should be his fate.

NEVADA INDIAN CoMMIssIoN.-Genera
J. p. G. Shanks, representing the Ninth
District of Indiana in Congress. and q
member of the Committee on Indian
Affairs, arrived in this city yesterday.
He will remain here some days, after
which he will give his attention to Indian
matters in Nevada. He is one of the
working members Of Congress, and will
be able to present at the next session a
reliable report in relation to the manage
ment of Indian affairs in this State. Not
long since, at the request of Senators
Jones and Stewart, commission was
appointed to visit Nevada and examine
and report upon tae condition, character
and habits of the Indians of the State
with reference to their more rapid do
mestication. The labors of the commits
sion will also embrace careful canvass
OF the propriety Of increasing or lessen
the number of reservations in the State
and general review of the Indian man.
ag-ment here, General Shanks fills the
place of Mr.. Vandever, who was origin.
ally appointed on the commission, and a
more acceptable substitution could not
have been made. Wide repute places to
his credit earnestness, honesty and
marked capacity in the discharge of pub
lie duties, not less than a thorough
knowledge of the Indian policy and man
agement of the Government. With him
upon the commission is Mr.. O'Conner

The SWEETNESS OF BLAINE. OF all
men who Wintered in Washington City,
Speaker Blaine built himself no enemies.
Republican Representatives went home
believing Blaine the one shining light of
the party. The Democrats remarked. as
they gave one another the final goodbye
that blaine was the onl white man in
the whole Radical crowd" The Gran
gers forgave Mister Blame" for giving
swell! receptions and wearing broad.
cloth, and were unanimous that there
was something mighty about him"
Grant holds him so warmly as to make
him his first choice for the Presidency,
whenever the third term idea sinks in the
muddled executive brain. Every Cabinet
officer ranks Blaine as his immediate per-
sonal friend, and they ran to him all the
session to untangie department perplexi-
ties too complicated for their own shall.
low understanding. His life was aston
ishing the whole session. A suave socie-
ty leader, he was, with his charming
family, in all their principal receptions
and visits. Yet he glittered at every
Congressional supper, and was up, ruddy
and fresh betimes, for an hours closeting
with Grant in the morning, or a business
consultation with Delano or Robson.
He was promptly and persistently in his
place during day and night sessions, aud
his velvet-and-steel handling OF the
House was matter Of common fame. A
Parliamentarian whose decisions have
never been reversed. he ruled three humid
red bumptious, noisy legislators easier
than most men rule small household.

A HARD JOB.

The Virginia Enterprise has undertake
en- hard task. but it is working away at
it with an energy worthy of better
cause. 1t is endeavoring to prove that
the Republican party is not responsible
for the corruption that of late years has
been the distinguishing feature of the
administration of public affairs. Now,
this method of accusing and defending Of
elimination or recrimination, does not
cure the evil complained of. Why does
not the Enterprise do all that is possible
to correct the venality that is making
the very name of official position Infa-
nous. Instead of that. it takes ''your
another line of argument, and while
admitting that the men it defends have
acted villanously. says Others would
have done no better. But that does not
cure the trouble. 1t is no disputing
about names, or whose fault has caused
these grievances. The thing is to heal
them if possible and prevent recur-
renee of them in the future. But no
We have had investigating com mittees
and inquiries one after another, and
what came of them? Nothing. The
root OF the evil lies deeper than
such men care to go. and its cure
will not be found until the question of
guilt or innocence is not determined by
the political utilization. The inquiry as to
whether man has stolen something is
not answered by saying that be is good
Republican or Democrat. That is no
test and should be no excuse. Those
matters should be determined by the
simple principles of right and wrong;
not by making the political status of an
alleged criminal either an exculpation or
accusation. This being the case, what
is the use of talking about this or the
orther party. The fact is conceded by all
hands that there is terrible amount of
wrong doing among public officials and
the object is to punish the offender and
prevent repetition of their offences.
1t is no use to be talking about parties
when facts show that corruption has
shown itself in every public department;
the point is to stop it and prevent its
further growth. When this is done it
will be time enough to discuss the potiti-
cal leanings of the guilty. In the mean
time it is but little use for the Enter
prise to be preaching up the virtues Of
its party, while Moses is stealing in
South Carolina, Durell is retailing decis-
ions in the Courts OF the United States
for hire, and many others are COM
hitting similar crimes in other places.

AT O'Clock on Sunday morning the
Planning Mill owned by Davis & Thaxter
was discovered TO be on fire. Before
the engines could be got there the mill
and its machinery were destroyed. In.
deed, SO sudden were the outbursting of
the flames, and so great the volume
thereof, that it seemed as if the whole
building was wrapped in sheet of fire
at once. The proprietors say that there
had been no fire on the premises since
early in the afternoon OF Saturday. The
floors had been wet down, as was the
usual custom. We heard that they had
several times driven Indians out from a
sort OF cellar under the building. Pos
sibly some Indians may have been under
there smoking, and thus caused the fire.
