There seems TO be q great misunder.

Ject OF exciting debate in the cabinet
last Friday. There has been no debate
whatever about it in the cabinet. he
Spanish Government has agreed to pay
$4,000 for indemnity, to be distributed
among the families of the Virginius
sufferers. They have also agreed that
there shall be no suit or arbitration in
the Admiralty Court or elsewhere in re-
gard to the sunken vessel. They have
apologIzed for the insult to our flag on
the Nirginius, and, in TACT, done every
lalng we asked except TO cut down the

Our Spanish relations are settled.
The only difficulty in the way is a singu-
lar fact. Hon. Caleb Gushing has sue
ceeded in getting all the prelminaries
down to the point of signing, and ex-
pected to sign for the United States
When 1T came TO that point, but when he
came to sign he suddenly remembered
that in the usual slow process of diplo-
matte affairs he had not received his
credentials, and was therefore not en-
powered to sign.
His credentials and special authority
were at once sent, and are almost in his
grasp now. The signed documents will
be returned in time ior consideration at
the extra session of the Senate, and
thus will the Spanish question be di-
posed ot.--WasningLon Cor.

pie OF est Cases.
The Civil Rights measure passed by
the last Congress is becoming serious
social problem. There are now two ca
ses Of its violation in this city, which
will probably result in test Of the act.
Last Saturday two dark looking men
arrived i'll this city on the Louisville
Short-Line, took hack, and were driven
to the st. James Hotel, where they ap-
piled for lodging. Mr.. McGrath, the
owner OF the house, refused TO. receive
them.
They stated that they were as good as
white men, and were entitled to all the
privileges and accommodations Of the
house. Mr.. McGrath, however, re-
fused to receive them, and they
were compelled to get in the hack and
driAe to the Merchants Hotel, where
they are now registered as Henry and
VIM. Burltt, N. o.
The other case was at the Grand Op-
era-house and at Woods Theatre, at
each of which places man named
McAuliff applied for admission to
the dress circle for himself and
colored protege, and was refused. In
both cases he refused to receive back
his money or return the tickets. Both
OF these cases will probably be tested.

BRIDGTON is having very severe season
in getting representative to the Legislature.
At the time of the state election, the select
men came to the conclusion that there was a
tie because the Republican candidate had
the same number of ballots with his full name
as did Mr.. Walker, the Democratic candidate.
Mr.. Chase had one ballot with his initials
only, by which name he is generally known,
thus giving him majority of one. The Sc
lectmen, however, called another meeting in
which the friends Of Mr.. Chase took no part.
The first return was accompanied by state
ment Of the selectmen to the effect that the
vote for B. T. Chase was undoubtedly intend
ed and should be couuted for Benjamin T.
Chase. At the first canvass of the returns
the Governor and Council concluded to give
the certificate to Mr.. Chase, but upon getting
the opinion of the Supreme Court, reversed
their decision and gave the certificate to Mr..
Walker, who died the day it was issued. To-
morrow third election will be held. We
understand the friends of Mr.. Chase will not
participate in the election, claiming that he
received plurality of votes at the first elec-
tion. Of this there can be little doubt, and
Mr.. Chase, as contestant, will go to the
Reed of Boothbay, who contested seat CIV
en- to a Republican on the ground that all the
votes bearing hfs initials and simply Chap
Reed, when his full name is Chapman N.
inf dad h1r
the precedents of the past fifteen years, Mr..
Chase is entitled to the seat, and we predict
he will get it at an early day in the session.

stale Temperance Convention.

Ihe temperance men and women of Maine, of all
religious, political and temperance organizations and
those not connected with either, invited to meet
at Meonian Hall. in Augusta, on Wednesday, Janu-
airy 18th, 1876 at IL o'clock A. M for the purpose of
holding Mass Temperance Convention.
Inis being the centennial yearsof our national ex-
lstence, 1t is highly important anu fitting that we
should meet in convention and declare ourselves free
and independent of King Alcohol, and take every
means in our power to declare against him war Of
utter determination.
Among the many questions that it may be proper
to consider, the following are important :-"What
can be done to aid the reform clubs in their noble
work?'> "How can we encourage and help those no.
BILE women who are organizing crusade movements
and women christian temperance societies?" Sis
there not necessity that something should be done
to more sfsctualy suppress the sale Of intoxicating
GUS religious denominations of the State take more
decidod and active measures in this great cause?"
Sought not the legislative, judicial, executive and
municipal bodies OF our state to take stronger and
more decisive measures for the suppression of the
great evil of intemperance?" 'Should not the var-
ouSemperance organizations of the state receive the
encouragement OF every friend of temperance?''
1t seems to that there has not been for several
years a more favorable crisis in the temperance
movement in this state than the present. The work
done by the several temperance organizations, to-
gether with the cooperation of the faithful women
engaged in this work, should encourage every friend
of the cause and prompt to renewed diligence.
The convention will probably be continued through
Thursday. While we cannot promise free accommo-
datiOn to those attending the convention yet we will
make an effort to secure board at reduced rates. The
usual reduction of fare may be expected on the sew
eral railroads and steamboats,,
