The Mexican correspondent of the
New York World sends ii his last let
ter very important bit of information.
He says that those papers in the United
States which publish statements con-
corning the high regard entertained by
Mexicans for this country. IRE classifying.
The most impiacable hatred exists there
now as it always has, and an attempt is
being made to concentrate all the Span
ish forces in America with which to
make war on the United States. The
correspondent sends some TRANSACTIONS
from the Spanish journals of that coun-
try, and also copies of orders which
show that an army is being organized
and equipped as rapidly as possible.
If the Spaniards unite in war upon the
United States, let us remember the Vir-
ginius and other outrages, and be thor
oughly revenged.

between Mr.. W. d. Crampsey and Mr.. Joseph
Burger on + street, in which 1t was stated
that Mr.. Crampsey was Mr.. Burgers landlord
and the trouble grew out of non-payment Of
rent. 1t appears that Mr.. Crampscy is not Mr..
Burgers landlord, but was the landlord of
Lawrence & Co, next door TO Burgers. Law
renee 4 Co. moved out into n new store, In the
same square nearer Tenth street, without, as
Mr. Crmpsey states, paying the rent for the
current month. Mr.. Crampscy obtained an
attachment, and, while. attempting to serve 1t,
hot words arose between him and Mr.. Harry
Mcliinnis, who opposed the service Of the
paper. Mctiinnis applied a very opprobrious
cpithct to Crampscy, which provoked the lat
ter to strike him. Several who were pres.

down. As Mr.. CrampSey left the store,
Burger, who was there, struck him q part
ing blow on the side Of the head. The
sequel was warrant for Burger, procured by
Cr,mpsey for asSaulting him; warrant for
Crampscy, obtained by Mctiinnis for assault.
