Sirl
The unprecedented crisis through which
this Island has and is passing is an event,
which, from its magnitude, has almost
paralyzed the tongue Of every one. Most
persons affect silence on the subject; for
to speak on it is so painful hat, by a COM
mon consent, it is very generally avoided.
Only in the distance do we see a glimmer-
ing ray of hope, based on more favourable
weather and on an intention for the future
to proceed by the light Of science and
modern improvement in the production Of
our staple commodity.
But for the assistance rendered us by
the mother-country, it cannJt be denied,
that this Islands existence, as q sugar
producing colony, would have been ire
trievably ruined.
The necessity for that assistance was
at once perceived and help obtained by
Governor Garde. To him we owe the
keeping aloat Of our shattered bark and
he it IS who seems unWearied unit he has
safely moOred US into the haven of a hope
full future.
These remarks are drawn from me on
the contemplation of the near return Of
His ExceIlency, aud from a thought of
in what manner the Inhabitants of this
Island could generally evince their deep
felt thanks for his unwearied exertions in
our behalf. The customary reception
would be one too cool and inexpensive
on this occasion.

why Mr.. Jewell was Dismissed from the
Cabinet--Mark Twain Makes a Clean
Breast of His Own Connection with the
Affair.
10 the Editors of the New York Evening Post:
Now, when there is so much worrying
and wailing and legislating about econo-
my in postage, may / ask your attention
to conundrum touching that matter (?
IF you write to person in certain for
eign countries, our Government will for
ward your letter without requiring you
to prepay the postage; but if you write
to a person In your own or a neighbor
ing State, you must not only prepay, but
be sure you do not fall short a single
penny; for if you do, the Government
will be afraid to risk collecting the pen
ny at the other end, but will rush your
letter to the Dead Letter Office Cat an
expense of about two cents), and then
write you Cat the expense OF three cents)
that you can have it by writing for 1t
prepayment three cents) and inclosing
three cents for its transmission. To IL
lustrate our system: A fortnight ago
citizen of Hartford mailed letter, di-
rected to me at this place where / ain
summering, and inadvertently fell one
cent short of full prepayment. The
postoffice authorities held council of
war over it and then sent it to
Washington in charge of an artill-
cry regiment, at great cost to the
nation The Dead Letter Department
worried over it several days and nights,
and then wrote me Cat cost of three
cents) that could have my letter for
three-cent stamp or it's equivalent in
coin. I, like an ass, sent for it, think
ing it might contain legacy, and yes
terday it arrived here in a man-of-war,
at vast expense to the Government, and
was brought to these premises by three
companies of marines and a mortar bat
terry, all of whom staid to supper. The
letter had nothing in it but doctors
bill. On the same day I received a heavy
letter from England, with a one-penny
stamp on it, and the words 'Collect
eighteen pence. It had been forward
ed from Hartford without ever going to
the Dead Letter Office. The conundrum
[ wish to ask is this If letter be
under prepaid, would it not be well to
do it up in rag and send it along, talk
ing the risk of collecting the deficit at
the other end, as used to be the custom
before we learned SO much?
However, the expense which I (and
the Government incurred in the trans
mission of doctors bill, which did
not want, and do not value now that [
have got it, was not the gravest feature
of the unfortunate episode. The Post
master General was removed from the
Cabinet for not collecting storage for
the six days that my letter remained IN
the Dead-Letter Office. It seems to me
that this punishment was conspicuously
disproportioned to the offense.

MOntenegrin Warfare.

The Montenegrin method Of making
war in very primitive. A Russian officer
who visited their country, and studied
it, tells us that a Montenegrin never sues
for mercy; and whenever one of them
is severely wounded, and it is impossible
to save him from the enemy, his own
comrades cut off his head. When at the
attack of Clobnck small detachment of
Russian troops was obliged to retreat, an
officer of stout make, and no longer
young, fell on the ground from exhaus-
ton. A Montenegro, perceiving it, ran
Immediately to him, and, having drawn
his yatagan, said: You are very brave,
and must wish that ] should cut off your
head. Say a prayer and make sign OF
the cross" The officer, Mortified at the
proposition, made an effort to rise, and
reioined his comrades with the assist
ance of the friendly Montenegrin. They
consider all those who have been taken
by the enemy as killed.

A Centennial Tonic.

Tt is pleasant to read, in this Centen-
NAL year (and we use this phrase boldly,
and with the agreeable remembrance
that it has appeared less often in this
journal than in some Others), IN the
London Acdden1y's review Of History
of the American War for Independence,
bv Mr., Ludlow, some sensible remarks
concerning the execution of Major
Andre. Mr.. Ludlow speaks of this exc
cution. as zone of the few blots on
Washington's fair fame, " and thinks that
Andre should have had "the privilege
of being shot"
"If,'5 says the Acadenay, "Major
Andre had been suffered to die the
death of a soldier, he would not have
been executed as a spy, and his fate
would have been little less than muir
der in cold blood. No good reason eve4.
has been or can be assigned why he
should not have suffered the irrevocable
penalty attached to the military crime
which he voluntarily and intelligently
committed, and no plea has ever been
made in his favor except that ne was a
gallantyoun officer of brilliant abilities.
So was the young American, Hale, who
was afterward hanged In the English
camp for similar ofense, but in whose
behalf no similar plea was ever put forth
by his countrymen, who, with all their
sympathy for him, very properly re-
garded his fate as the inevitable conse-
Guence of the failure of his mission.
Every such case is painful enough, but
there is little doubt that that OF Major
Andre would have been long since for
gotten if it had not been for the sent1-
mental glamour in which Miss Seward
and her set contrived to envelop it. =

Cremation of Two Bodies.
rDresden Cor. Detroit Free Press


When we arrived among the earliest
the interior was glowing at white heat
the stream of gas had been shut off, the
steel bars along the floor were painful to
look upon. When an audience Of about
120 spectators, all evidently of the most
Intelligent and respectable class, and en-
bracing in their number over dozen la
dies, had assembled, one of the Messrs.
Siemens made short address explana-
tory of the process We were about to wit
ness; and then the two corpses were
brought forward, sewed in linen sacks,
and resting on long, narrow boards. The
iron door of the furnace was swung open
and these boards instantly thrust into the
glowing interior, and as rapidly with
drawn, leaving the two sacks containing
the bodies resting on the white hot fur
mace bars. The door was instantly closed
and it's edges rapidly ''tamped with
wet clay, and before it closed we saw the
wrappings shrivel up into nothingness,
and dancing, lambent flames play over
the naked bodies. The process of burn
ing lasted precisely an hour and seven
teen. minutes by the watch, and we had
ample opportunity to note the process OF
WlbLlI1IS OuA WV WV
boeuf" left in the iron furnace door for
that purpose. To the play Of the flames
over the ccrpses succeeded two dark
masses like burned roast beef, the out
lines of the figures being distinctly v1s1-
BILE, then two masses OF brownlsh Goals
through which the white ribs and skulls
showed grimly, while the masses seemed
to palpitate in the throbbing heat; then
two heaps of red ashes, which slowly
turned to white. Then the tamping was
knocked out from around an iron door at
the bottom of the furnaces, a wooden
shovel like that used by bakers thrust III,
on which the clear, pure, dry, bright
ashes were collected, and passed around
among the spectators for inspection and
the minutest examination. There was
nothing repulsive about the entire pro-
ceeding; no roaring or cracking, or Of
fensive odor; the only part of the cere,
mony which would shock the sensitive
was where the bodies were thrust from
the plank into the glowing oven and left
upon the incandescent bars, while the
door swung to and hid them from sight,
and this would not be worse, after Gus
tom had made it familiar than the lower
ing of the body into the ground and the
scattering of earth upon the coffin. We
broke up as the shades of evening were
stealing over the valley of the Elbe from
the hills of Saxon Switzerland, and came
away well satisfied with cremation as a
neat, clean, convenient and expedlent
method of disposing of the bodies OF the
dead in thiclzly populated countries. 1t
was authoritatively stated that the body
of man of average size leaves residue
Of four to four and q half pounds OF ashes,
that of an average woman a residue OF
about three pounds. Did [ remember
to mention that the corpses of which l
spoke as having been cremated were
the bodies of large mastiff and a cat
But the experiment was as satisfactory
as If they had been human"

A PlnckH Passenger.

d. M. McCurdy, "a commercial traveller,
hailing from Kansas City, is credited by
the DenUer NeaOs with an unusually
plucky deed. The driver of x-horse
stage coach, upon which he was an in
side passenger, got down from the box
at place called Fall river, leaving the
reins in the hands of an invalid, and du
alng his absence the team ran and the
man on the box was unable to hold the
reins. AS the coach was full OF men,
women and children, there was extreme
danger of serious loss of life. In the
emergency Mr.. McCurdy clambered out
through one of the narrow windows,
gaining the box and the lines, while the
now thoroughly terrified horses were
fairly flying over the fearful road,
Astounding v it'll awful declivities and
iutting rocks. Selling the reins and
bending against them with all the
strength of his arms, and forcing an
almost superhuman weight upon the
brake, he checked the maddened steeds
in their wild career, just on the edge of
g precipice that would have been the
end Of all the crew of the coach had it
gone over.

The Massacre of Maj. Dade-OsceOla

The Massacre OF Maj. Dade-OSceOIa
The recent massacre of Gen. Custer
and his command by the Sioux recalls
the surprise and destruction of Maj.
Dade and detachment Of ITO soldiers
by the Seminoles in Florida, in 1885.
Mai. Dade, like Gen. Custer, was a
gallant officer, and his comrades were all
veterans of the regular army. But they
were no match for their willy foes in the
everglades of Florida, where they had
to fight part of the time up to their
necks in the water, and against invisible
enemies.
The same day that Maj. Dade and his
command was massacred, Osceola, the
Seminole chief, was lying in wait, out
side of Fort King, for Gen. Thompson,
the United States Indian Agent. The
General. months before, had mortally
offended the proud chief, by putting
him in irons, when he came to Fort King
to demand his wife, who had been
claimed as slave by trader and car
ried off MS such. After lying In wait for
Gen. Thompson for weeks and months,
Osceola at last caught him outside the
fort, on Dec. %, 1886, and killed him
and four other white men. He then lied
to the everglades, and Immediately took
command of the band that had just de-
stroyed Maj. Dade and his men.
Thus was the Seminole war, which cost
us so much in money and men, lnaugur-
ated,

THE WAR IN THE EAST.
Extremity-The Roumanian Up
rising.
From the Chicago Tribunel

From the Chicago Tribune.
The most interesting news from the
Turko-Servian campaign now centers III
and about Roumania. Indications have
not been wanting, during the past two
weeks, that this powerful principally
might make common cause with Servla.
The ultimatun which she presented to
the Porte, so far as territorial acquisition
was concerned, was not accepted, and
could not have been, without involving
an unreasonable concession, by the Tur-
kish point of view at least. The great
powers, also, with the exception OF
Russia, pronounced the ultimatum un-
reasonable, but the tacit acquiescence OF
Russia was sufficiently encouraging to
the Roumanians to warrant them III
mobllizing their army. Roumanla, III
reality, would never take step except
as advised by Russia; and if the news be
true that her troops are already on the
frontier. then the threat of Austria to
occupy Servia, if the war is not ended III
a fortnight. is more than offset by this
new move on the board which has been
made by Russia. If, as is stated, Rou-
mania has 25, 600 troops on the frontier,
and shots have already been exchanged
with the Turks, then the first step has
been taken that may involve a general
European war.
In case the great powers should not
interfere, then the scale is tipped IN favor
of Servia. Roumania has a population
of 1883. $40, of whom over 4, 900, 900 are
Greek Christians, in perfect accord with
the Christians of Servia, Montenegro
and Bulgaria It's army, which is very
nowerful one, is divided into the follow
ing classes: The permanent army and it's
reserves, embracing eight regiments OF
infantry, four battalions of rifiemen, one
battalion of pompiers, two companies OF
foot grenadiers, one company OF dis
cipline, two regiments of hussars, one
squadron of instruction, five squadrons
of horse gendarmes, two regiments OF
seven batteries, one company OF pom
TONER'S, and four companies of engineers,
besides workmen, hospital and transport
service; second, the territorial army and
reserve of %, 1853 infantry and II, l84
cavalry; third, the militia, composed
of all those between 81 and 81
years, not drawn for the perma-
nent or territorial armies; and, fourth,
the national guard, including all men
from 81 to 46 years of age,
who may be called out for garrison
service. Roumania, therefore, can
probably add at least 100, 600 effective
and well-trained men to the Sclavic
forces now in the field. which will make
the combined Christian forces equal to,
if not greater, than the Turkish. 1t adds
to the probability of a general war that
Crete and Greece are liable to rise ID re-
bellion the moment that q Servian sue
cess appears probable, and that the
Turks themselves expect to have to fight
the Russians.
