The PaIa Indians ON the War Path.

SAN DIEGO, October A dispatch
from San Diego says serious trouble Is
feared with the Pala Indians. In the
mountains northeast of that portion of
country, they have recently been eject
ed from lands and ranches they had
long occupied and to which they are,
according to all evidence, entitled.
They threaten reprisals and number
between three and four hundred able
bodied men, and owing to the remote.
ness of their locality, about eighty
miles inland, and the sparseness of
white settlements, grave difficulty
seems imminent. Governor Pacheco
and General Schofield have been tele-
graphed for arms and troops, Great
apprehension is felt in San Diego,

Cuban Intelligence.

WASHINGTON, October 2.--Informa
ton has been received from Havana
which shows that there is good dea
of dissatisfaction and uneasiness
among the wealthy inhabitants, al
the prolongation of the insurrecton
and showing further that they had
some time since united in remon-
starnce to the Spanish government
against the continuance of hostile
movements to suppress the insurrec-
ton, believing that by wise policy
peace might have been reached be-
tween the contending parties without
anurther bloodshed.
Not succeeding in their efforts for
ejaculation and relief in that direc-
ptioB, the story comes from sources
which are said to be reliable, that
these wealthy Spaniards1have either
directly or indirectly proposed to the
Cuba Junta at New York, to cooper
ate with it in such measures as may
effect an accommodation between the
'scontending parties, but that the Junta
,Gaclined their overtures, declaring
their determination to continue the
war until their object in commencing
1.-THE independence of Cuba-shall
have been secured.
There are no means of ascertaning
the entire expense of this war on the
part of Spain, further than that forty
millions of dollars were expended for
military purposes in one year, namely
lS70-'7l In Cuba, to say nothing of the
fleet of gunbOats in Cuban waters. The
same official source says that the ag-
gregate force under arms exceeded one
hundred thousand men, more than
half of which were regular troops, aud
that the loss Of the army in Cuba ex
ceeded eighteen thousand men. The
sinsurgent ferces at that time did not
number more than six thousand men
of all arms. 1t is In view of such vast
expenses, without corresponding re-
suits, that the prominent Spaniards
both in Cuba and Spain are anxious
for the cessation Of hostilities.
II is the opinion of gentlemen at
Madrid, as expressed in correspond
ence from Spain, that the want of sta
bility In the Government and the prev
alence ofcivil war in Spain, excludes a
consideration of the pacification of
Cuba Us proposed.
New YORK, October 1.-The Spanish
minister at Washington, now in this
city, has received a cable dispatch
from the Spanish Consul at Kingston,
Jamaica, informing him that the cargo
of the steamship Uruguay, consisting
of arms and ammunition intended for
the Cuban insurgents, has been seized
by the authorities at that port.

Henry Ward Beecher, in his
Thanksgiving sermon, paints a pic
ture of total depravity in the "city
of churches" which is unheard of
for Its hideousness. He charges the
school commissioners with the fear
full crime of compelling the female
teachers i'll the public schools to be-
come prostitutes in order to retain
their situations. A reporter who
heard the sermon, but who feared that
Mr.. Beecher might have said more
than he intended in the excitement
of the moment, went to him after the
service and questioned him about it.
He insisted that he knew whereof he
spoke, and that he had not exaggera-
ted in the least. The enormity of the
crime is simply appalling, and its mere
mention will send a thrill of terror
aud disgust throughput the land. No
half way measures should be tolera-
ted in this matter. Should it prove
true, the guilty party or parties de-
serve death at the hands of the law,
or of aR outraged community. If
Mr.. Beeeher has dared to utter .
SANDER in the premises, despite his
gray hairs and all that he may have
done of good, he SS..sfVes no bettsr,

We wish him good prices. Bennett

Our village school is 1ourishing un-

scholars will give an exhibition Christ

now being made, we think it will be a
success.
Our neighborhood was enlivened a
