FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1875.


The little trouble between this coun-
try and Spain. arising out of the
Virgtntus affair, has never been settled.
Secretary Fish, in treating with Spain
upon the subject, twas as ienient as
possible with the infant Republic, then
struggling with difficulty and the dan
ger of transition from monarchy, in
addition to the internal rebellion, be-
cause he deemed it the duty of the ma
tion to extend such ail as was in its
power to help found successfully a
government of the people in Spain.
To this end our demands under the
protocol were made with Admiral
Polo. Supplementary negotiations.
while presented in dignified form and
manner, were not prosecuted with
such vigor as they now will bear, ne
cessity for moral support to Spain,
the young republic, having been re-
moved by the restoration of a mon
archy. It will be remembered that
some time ago it was announced that
Spain had made settlement with
England for indemnity demanded aris-
ing from the FfrgtaitS troubles. After
this fact became public, Secretary Fish
stated that the claims OF this Govern
ment would be settled in a manner
similar TO that with Great Gritain, at
an early day. The restoration of a
rNnparohu rrfx-ac x1,io r,0x,ory,v,1art a
first opportunity TO demand prompt
settlement of all claims, in a manner
which cannot be mistaken. The ques-
ton of sympathy will not enter into
the negotiations. The Don Alfonso
Government cannot reject the protocol
without its abrogation, and to abro-
gate compact as binding on nation
as this would be equivalent to declare
war, an event certainly not desired by
Spain in view of existing divisions in
political opinions among its people.
At least, the acts of the late Republic,
SO far as they relate to the ViTgtniMs
indemnity, will be recognized by the
new Government, and reparation, so
far as money can atone for our griev-
ances, will be very soon made" The
telegraph informs US that Secretary
Fish had an extended interview with
the President on Saturday last. when
the subject cf the Vfrginius trouble
was fully discussed. As result, the
President, who has long been restive
under the policy of the State Depart
ment In this matter, has decided upon
vigorous and decisive course at once.
A member of the House Foreign Af
fairs Committee, who. also. has been
strongly opposed to the cause of the
Secretary In this matter. has publicly
stated that time must come for the
nation to assume a more aggressive
policy.

Hearty sr.ppers.

The great body of mankind pay
little attention TO the laws of life, and
thousands are cut off in the prime of
manhood aud woinanhood every year,
who might have lived to patriarchal
age had they understood and needed
tie wants and demands of their own
bodies. We at least intend doing our
duty toward our fellow-Inen, by print
ing from time to time facts, gathered
from reliable sources, leading to a
better understanding of the laws of
health. Weproduce, therefore, below,
all article OH ''hearty srppers," taken
from a late number of the Science of
Health. which should be carefully read:
Eating hearty meal at the close of
tile day is like giving laboring man
full days work to do just as night
sets i'm, although he has been toiling
all day. The whole body Is f:itigued
when night sets in. the stomach takes
its due share. and to eat heartily at
supper and then go to bed is giving all
the other portions and functions of
the body repose. while the stomach
has thrown upon it four or five hours
more of additional work, after having
already lahorel four or five hours to
dispose of breakfast. and still longer
time for dinner. This ten or twelve
hovrs of almost incessant work has
nearly exhausted its power; it cannot
promptly digest another full meal. but
iabors at It for long hours together,
like an exhausted galley-slave on Il
newly-imposed task.
The result is that by the unnatural
length of time which the food Is kept
IN the stomach, and the imperfect man.
ner in which the exhausted organ
manages it, 1t becomes more or less
acid; this generates wind. this distentls
the stomach, this presses up itself
against the more yielding lungs. con-
fining them to largely diminished
space; hence every breath taken Is in-
sufficient for the wants of the system.
the blood becomes foul, black, and
| thick, refuses to flow, and the man
dies, or in delirium or fright leaps
from window, or COMMITS Suicide.
! Let any reador who follows an in
active rfe for tue most part. try the
/ experiment for a week of eating abso-
lutely nothing after a one or two
| O'Clock dinner, and see if IL sounder
sleep and vigorous appetite for break
fast and hearty dinner are not the
! pleasurable results, to say nothing OF
the happy 1eliversance from that disa-
| greeable fullness, weight, oppression,
or acidity which attends over-eating.
The great Ienovating and vivacity
which long, delicious. and connect
ing sleep imparts. both to mind and
body, will of themselves more than
compensate for the certainly short and
rather dubious pleasure of eating a
supper with no special relish.

The political troubles in Louisiana
seem to be growing worse. Gen.
Sheridan has been sent there to re-
lieve Gen. Mcdowell, and the Con-
gressional Investigating Committee
are at work trying to get at the bot
tom or real causes Of the trouble.
Sheridan telegraplfs to the Secretary
ofWar that life and property are ter
ribly insecure there, and advises the
arrest OF the leaders Of the White
Leaguers. His telegram is denounced
as false. and his advice pronounced
barbarotis. In the mean time the
Committee, we hope, win make full
and unbiased examination OF all the
causes that have been and now are
at work creating such a deplorable
state of affairs in Louisiana. and
that Immediately upon the receipt
OF the report Congress will proceed
TO apply the proper remedy accord
ing TO law and the evidence before it.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. has been
much talk on this subject Of late and the
newspapers have been full Of it. Now
we have a case Of our own right at home.
For the past three or four weeks the spir
its have held a nightly seance in a certain
section of this town-spirits that by their
stvle of manifestations, would seem to be
clothed in ut least moderate share of the
flesh of poor, errlng m )rtality, and bread
and beefsteak, mayhap, have something
to do with the vigor and animation they
show. During the time above named, n
dwelling house occupied by lady whose
husband is at present away from home,
has been subjected to a severe course of
rocking" Every night at the witchng
hour OF twilight and just after dark, stones
and occasionally, cods Of earth come
humping and banging down upon the
roof and pattering into the yard just rs II
they had right there. Every night a
crowd of interested spectators gathers
about to watch the phenomena and in
quire into the cause. They tird by expe-
rience that the missiles are no rospecters
of persons, and would as soon hit man
as dog. But although a strict watch
has been kept, the direction from they
come seems hard to determine and all eff
forts to find the throwers have failed
Some of our officials have taken the mat
ter in hand, and it is to be hoped that the
mystery will be solved ere another week.
Night after night the projectiles come
pouring in, and it has got to be decidedly
uncomfortable for the family against
whom their attentions are directed. On
Tuesday evening Il large pebble smashed
a square of glass and found its way into
the room where the folks were sitting.
Wednesday night, a repetition of the
same. Don't say it's ghosts, for nothing
but muscles the size Of fence-posts could
ever achieve the fcats as above.
