Nor CoRRECT.-Several democratic
contemporaries have fallen into the
error of stating that Governor HAYES
supported what is known as the back
pay measure, aud took the salary be
voted 10 himself. This mistake doubt
less arose from the fact that Governor
Hayes WAS in the Congress which fix
ed the salary Of Congressman at $4,000
a year. He was not, however, a mem.
Der of the Congress which voted itself
an additional salary. Mr. Wheeler,
however, is on the record as an oppo-
neut of the measure. When the bill
became a law, he drew the whole
amount from the treasury, then imme-
diately purchased OF the United States
treasury government bonds of the
same amount and had them cancelled
in his presence. This course placed
the money entirely beyond his control.

the most effective way of disposing Of

UxFoRrUEArE FAMILY.-Iivine inst off

UNFOKTUNATE FAMILY.-Living Just off
High street, says the Providence Press. is a
family named Bowen. consisting of six sons
and two daughters, nearly ali of whom, it
appears, within short time have met with
accidents. The boys are all carpenters, aud
the husband of one OF the daughters is also
carpenter. Some weeks ago II. Bowen had
two fingers of his left hand severed by cir
cular saw, and few days later his brother
Henry chopped part OF his left hand off Vim
cent subsequently, sufferd the loss of one fin
ger, and William cut three fingers of his
hand off while working with Ratchet.
Next Leonard had his right haad very badly
cut with an axe, and owing 20 improper
treatment be has lost the use of it. While
operating a circular saw last week, Lewis,
the youngest brother, had his hand drawn in
and terribly mangled. E. Barber, the husband
OF one Of the Bowen girls. while absent from
the city recently. had his arm split open and
bis hand crushed. This is a singular affair,
indeed, not q single member of the male por-
tion of the family escaped.

The Blending Of Flags.

One of the most pleasing features Of the
,,,ag decorations in this metropolis and proba-
bly, IL. on -hout the cities of the Republic is
the blending Of 'de cOlors of other nations

ii is an earnest tribute to the genius OF GU"
Institutions from rAe brotherhood of Iaen.
ErrTy nation under tho sun has contributed
TO our population, and il is net surprising,
therefore, that every flag Eu3er heaven should
be given to tha breeze IL the centennial flow
er Of our national exiS'enc5. II Is a sign of
fraternity and internaiional fellowship which
could III uo other way fud such fit express
SION. The German haugs the tTicyl lor of the
Empire side by side with Ireiand's green and
the Irishman places Efins harp and the
black eagle Of German proves under the
folds Of the " S:ar Spangie Btnuer." Even
the tricol0r of France is lifted up by German
hands, and wherever our flag il seen there Is
ibe emblem OF some other nationality which
has helped at some time dnring the century
10 raise it up in honor and in pride. As if
fITgettiug all the -eseptments of the past and
acc ping a. a matter Of joy the Declaration
of Iniepedience itself, even the red banner
of St. George is given 10 the brrezs as an EN-
tlem Of peace. as one hundred years ago il
was the emblem of war.
In all this there is theme for reflection
which cannot be lightly passed over. America
is home for all the world and all the world
has come 10 find home in America. We
ask one TO forget what heieft behind him,
but TO bring even bis flag with him and
twiue it with ours. both when he rejoices III

THE CUBAN WAR.-The telegraphic
news from Cuba is as little reassurlng
as ever. Though we hear little of the
insurgents their presence makes itself
felt in the burdens imposed on the
commerce of the country by the heavy
war taxes, which seem TO have reach
ed their utmost limits. Yet the war
seems further from 4 termination than
ever. Measures Of repression are now
adopted with the utmost severity IN

Servia and the Servians.

Seryia seems determined on war
with Turkey. Any day may bring
the news OF great battle, a consider
able tight having already taken place.
Prince Milan, Of Servia, is German
Prince, and probably, does not act with
ous the knowledge and taclt consent
of Bismarck. Servia in Itself is not
much OF power, though il has his
tory. II occupies central position
among the European dependencies OF
the Porte. Its area is about 10000
square miles, less than 1000 Of which
is under cultivation. Its population
at the last census was 1856, I25, the
males being in excess of the females
The Servlans are mostly Greek Chris
tianS. The standing army consists OF
5000 men, but the militia numbers
l5G, 900, and is SO arranged as TO ad-
init of the mobilization of 10000 men.
As the Prince was reported some
days since at the head OF 1000 men,
extraordinary efforts must have been
put forth. The Seryians are accust0m
ed 10 lighting and 10 being defeated.
For 100 years their history has been
full OF wars, most OF them OF Teligl~
ous character. In The ninth century
| hey were converted to Christianity,
and immediately became imbro!led
with Bulgaria. The tght was kept
up with more or less warmth tor 200
years. Ia the eleventh. century, how
ever, they secured their Independence
which by nearly constant fighting they
maintained until 1889, when they
were defeated by ths Turks in the
battle Of kaszova. They continued
the stTgggle, however, about fifty
years longer, when the Turks made
their conquest complete. During the
next 800 years Servia was mixed up
in the wars Oh Turkey, and Was the
victim ot many crueltlee on the part OF
pashas and JauisSarles. In 1871 they
reVolled, but We're reconquered and
treated with more cruelty than ever.
This led TO another revolt, III which
the SeryIrns made such desperate
resistance that their Prince Milovich
was recognized by the Porte. The
conditions were that Seryia should
pay tribute 10 Turkey, and in return
De projected in governing Itself. They

Punished for Piracy.

Most of the sentences in the case OF
the German ship Anna have been carried
ont at Hong Kong, showing that the
Chinese government, when 1t does make
up its mind to punish its people, goes
to the furthest extreme. Two OF the
mnrderers were apprehended and exc
cuted, and rewards are offered for the
capture of the others, who escaped.
Those who looked on whilethe slaughter
was done, but took no active part, have
been beaten and banished. Several
houses on the islands where the plum
dered cargo was concealed have been
burned by the public officers. The
coolies who moved the cargo from place
to place have been fogged. The mill
tary officials of the district have been
dismissed from the service and deprived
of their buttons; likewise the civil au-
tborities for their failure to act expedl-
tiously. The full money compensation
has been given for the stolen property,
and nothing remains now to be done but
the burning of the iunks In which the
cargo was transferred from the wreck OF
the Anna to the shore. The evidence
upon which these sentences were passed
tends to show that the murders were not
originally prompted by piratical lnten,
tioGs, but were in revenge Tor oruta,
treatment to the men by the captain and
mates of the Anna.
