of the home. Ashtabula heartily sympa-

these two counties will probably unite ID

among the Commissioners present consid-
erable doubt as to the position Mahonlng
county would assume. They did not de-
sire 10 make any arrangement that would
leave her out if she wished it otherwise
Previous to adjournment Auditor Ken

views of the Mahoning county Commis-
sioners. and in case they favored the prof
ect, TO invite Geauga County to unite in
forming the Orphans Home District, but
in case they should be unfavorable to the
project, then to invite Lake as well as

formation, that so far from the grasshop-

s,roved by the severity ofthe winter their
Gags are Matching, and the numbers are
apparently undiminished. The prospect
seems to be even more gloomy than last
year. Then they came after the rpening
of the wheat, so that this important crop
was harvested in good condition, and
proved an important dependence with
which to get through the winter. THE
other-growing crops-were totally de
stroyed. The appearance of the pests
so early in the season, before the matu-
ring of any of the crops, promises, if, as
abundant as before, the destruction Of
wheat as well as every other crop. The
sweeping of ofevery hope and depend
ence of the people, appears now to be
the conclusion which the poor settlers
are constrained to adopt Destitution
and suffering, if not absolute want and
starvation NAV be apprehended.

The winters work in Washington

The President and the members Of the
Cabinet are busy with the preparation Of
their reports to Congress, and private let
ter elsewhere printed gives some hints Of
what is likely to be the position Of the chief
officers of the administration upon the cur
rency question. The winters work in
Washington will have in view in the main,
probably, less the good of the country than
the benefit of the contending political
parties. The republicans will try to put
their opponents in a false and damaging po-
sition in relation to the currency and the
public debt the democrats will, by search
ing investigations into the management Of
public business, attempt to destroy the peo-
ple's con fdence in the republican leaders.
To the superficial view only confusion and
evil could grow out Of such contest ; but in
fact good will inevitably come of it. 1t is a
rough but effective way of protecting the
public interest and ifthe contestants on each
side prove their opponents unfit and un-
trustworthy they thus warn the people Of
the necessity Of discarding all of them and
selecting new men to administer their af-
fairs. 1t will not be public calamity by
any means if such shall be the result Of the
winters work in Washington. Both parties
have corrupt and effete leaders, men who
have lost their hold on national ideas, who
do not any longer think as the people think,
and who are careless of the public good. 1t
is a good time to bring forward new men,
and possibly the contending party leaders
who will be assembled in Washington this
winter can do no greater public service than
to exhibit each others ineficiency and un-
trustworthiness.
The New York herald., 1875-11-02

/ without its tale Of horror atrocity
and despair We have to look into the
/ far West among the unreasoning, savage
/ Sioux, TO find counterpart for the war IN
4 Cuba In the interest of humanity it should
I come to an end, no matter which side was
I victorious. But we do not soc how there can
Y be any doubt as to the victory. The Cuban
Revolution has lived as long as our American
Revolution, and although the English King
was stiff -necked, like Pharaoh, and would
not let the people so, in the end his pride
suddenly crumbled and he unloosed his
grasp Sooner or later Spain must follow
this example How much General Grant
can do toward encouraging this action it
would be in vain to speculate The Span
iards, proud beyond belief as q people,
are peculiarly sensitive as to Cuba 1t is the
last valuable remnant of that empire in
America which was the glory of Philip and
Charles, the last memento of the age when
the will Of a Spanish king was omnipotent
on two continents, and when the language
of Cervantes almost encircled the globe.
Cuba is to the Spaniards what the ark of the
covenant was to the children of Israel, and
woe to the unclean alien hand that dares to
touch it,
Altogether the question assumes a new
difficulty at every step. We do not contem-
plate the contingency of war. That would
be a wanton undertaking, an act of moral
treason, especially in year that is to base
its glory in Centennial Exhibition There
are no reasons for war now outside of the
Presidents ambition and the necessity of
the party-certainly no reason that has not
been operative for at least seven years. If
the administration can do anything in the way
Of diplomacy to compel Spain to emancipate
the slaves in Cuba or grant independence to
the island the country will be pleased. But
it is well to watch with suspicious eyes every
movement the President makes toward Cuba,
knowing what is possible to Chief Magis-
trate familiar with war, knowing the strange
power Of war over the passions and judg-
ments Of people, and not above appealing
to that awful arbiter if he can in any way
serve his ambition or his fame.

a LOCOMOTIVE on TIE New jersey RA1LnoAp

A LOCOMOTIVE ON THE New JERSEY RAILROAD
attached to q construction train exploded
yesterday at Bound Brook, killing five per-
sons and seriously wounding several others
Colonel Palmer 7. Thompson, the foreman
Of the railway gang, who is among the killed,
was blown over the railroad wires IL is for
tunate that the passenger train due about
the time Of the explosion was not near
enough to the switch to sustain injury. There
are several rumors adoat as to the cause Of
the accident, and gross carelessness is by
some attributed to the railroad authorities.
The matter should DO searchingly investi-
gated, and if, as reported, the locomotive was
unfit for use and dangerous, the parties re-
sponsiblc should be held to q strict account
ability.
