Mragoane.
New YORK, April 1.-THE brig Letitia,
which arrived from Miragoane to-day, reports
that on March q the Revolution party,
headed Boyer Bazalais and General Barlow,
with 103 men, well equipped with Winches-
ter seven-shooters, took the town without
opposition. On landing, the General assured
the people that they had nothing to fear.
To all who joined him he gave Remington
rifles. Most of the able-bodied men joined
him, He began Immediately to fortify the
town in such way as to show the people
that he meant to hold it against any attack.
The roads leading to the town were barri-
caded with barrels two or three tiers high,
and filled with sand. Most of the women
and children and sick and lame, who were
afraid of the burning of the town, were put
on board four vessels lying in port. Up to
the morning of the Doth no attack had been
made by the government forces. No one
was allowed to leave town on any pretenca-,

He Takes the Oath and Enters Upon the
Duties of His Office.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, April 11.-Postmastergener
Gresham was overwhelmed with visitors to-
day. He was sworn in in the morning. and
did not leave his office until 5 o'clock.
Among the callers were General Tom Browne
and W. w. Dudley, who have been repre-
sented as very sore over Gresham's elevation.
They warmly congratulated him, and the
meeting was pleasant all around. The In
diana Republican Club have decided to ten
der him an informal reception at Minister J.
W. Fosters residence, on Friday night.
There will be no set programme, merely
hand-shaking. etc. The new Postmaster
general has made very good impression.
The Secret of the Gresham Appointment.
Special to Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
Assistant Secretary New, who should GER
tainly be in position to know the inside po-
litcal gossip of his State, in discussing the
appointment of General Gresham to-day,
said that he believed that it was brought
about through the recommendations of
John w. Foster and David Davis. From no
rellaole source uaa ne HeaIu aDytnlnS 10
confirm the statement that General Grant
had expressed any desire in the matter at
all, although Mr. Howe was regarded as his
friend, and the President might have asked
his opinion on that account Mr.. New said
that, while he had not been on good terms
with General Gresham for some time, he
was proud of his selection for the honor to
Indiana, as he was a man eminartly fitted
for any Office, no matter how exalted it
might be. The prominence which had been
given General Gresham, at a time when
there was considerable talk of presidential
candidates for 1884, placed him, in the opin-
ion of Mr.. New, in the front rank of all those
who had been mentioned.

A Letter.

Editor Ne,cs:-Have you observed the lovely sunsets we have been having of late? or is not the sky of Canaan lighted by their beauty? The evening of Mo- vember 27 was rich in colors that lasted an hour, perhaps, after the sun had disappeared. The wonderful color of the clouds on the 9th and 10th inst exceeded anything I ever saw. The thin upper stratum of cloud was fine pink, while below hoated dark broken clouds which, in places, were edged with sea green of tint surpassing in beauty even that of the rippling waves seen from the deck of steamer in the waning light of summer day; and seen in relief agalnst the pink beyond, it formed a picture f.beautiful as rare, rare ss beautiful.

GARvey'A Story.
The following yarn was told hy Gar

The following yarn was told by Gar vey:-
 I was eight years old at the time this happened. My elder brother was living with farmer near Northampton, Mass went up to See him and spend d day | or two with him. | went out visiting
 with some friends during the first even ing, and my brother, feeling tired, went to bed, telling me before I left that ] was to sleep with him, as l had done on previous visits I knew the room well enough-or thought I did. It was one of number of rooms opening of the hall We'll, when my friends brought me home, went at once to my room and undressed and went to bed n the dark. Beside me lay as supposed my brother. I was just dropping off to sleey when the door opened and in came Q young fellow and girl. They carried light which they sat down on table and then they sat down themselves on @ sofa near the foot of the bed where l could see them, and began making love at lively rate. I became quite inter- ested and at times they acted so funnyI wanted to laugh right out. l wanted my brother to enjoy the fun, too, so l nudged him to wake him up. He did not respond, so I dug my elbows into his ribs again and again; but no sound came from him. The lovers kept right on and I determined to get my brother awake to see the sport at all hazards, so I reached down under the clothes and pinched his leg as hard as l could. The flesh felt cold and in minute l sat up right in the bed and had the clothes down from my bed-fellow's head. I saw that he was an old, gray-haired man and saw, too, that he was dead. It at once occurred to me that gone to bed in the wrong room. With yell that alarmed the house, I sprang for the door, partly naked as was, and ran for dear life into the next room, where my brother slept and got into bed with him. The amount of it was that an old mar, one of the family, had died that morn ing and I had by mistake gotten in the wrong bed where he was laid out. He was very old and they hadn't made much fuss over his death, which was the reason I did not hear of it when first came to the house. The young couple were rel atives of the deceased who came in to watch with the body during the even- ing. I tell you, though, did not get much sleep that night. -Erchange.

Oh, that people would watch the sky and clouds, especially as these wintry days are closing Their brightness would cheer the hours of darkness-the delicate shades of pink, lavender, green, yellow, etc., varying each moment and the rich red and orange more perma- nent. The great artist paints for us all; don't neglect His gifts. s. J. L.
 West Cornwall, Dec. II, 1883.
 Yes, we observed those remarkable sunsets and your inquiry, ''Is not the sky of Canaan lighted by their beauty" :" calls to mind a statement made years ago by @ wealthy gentleman of New York city who had spent years in travelling in Europe and who afterward for many successive seasons spent the summer in North Canaan. He said the gong into raptures over the beauty of Italian sunsets was entirely uncalled for, for nowhere in the universe could more grand and beautiful sunsets be observed than right here in North Canaan and after residence of many months ill Italy he was prepared to say that the Italian sunsets do not equal those frequently observed in North Canaan.- EL

About 1.30 O'Clock this morning Miss
Rose. one of the teachers, was awakened by
smoke. She hastened out Of her room,
down stairs, acoss the court TO the building
IN which President Farra and his family
live, aud in which most Of the students
sleep. President Farra Immediately had
the fire alarm sounded and proceeded to
arouse the sleeping teachers and students.
Then ensued Q scene OF, terrible excitement.
The fire gained great headway before the
the windows In all directions.
The students, some partly dressed and
more clad only In their night clothes, rushed
through the Railways, down the stairs and
ont into the snow. The sound Of fire bells,
especially when followed, rs In this case, by
a second alarm, have become a terror to the
people Of this city, and In spite Of the hour,
the snow and the cold, they turned out
from all directions and aided the aremen to
save the lives of the endangered and fright
ened girls. just at this point, somebody
seeing the flames from q distance and not
knowing that an alarm had been given,
rang the alarm near the Convent OF Notre
Dame, two blocks away. This added TO
the public excitement, as the story spread

LONDON, Jan 20.--The crew of the Wilson
Line steamer Argo, which has arrived al
Hull, state that on the night before the col.
lision between the steamers Cimbria and
sultan they passed, while on the voyage
from London to Bremen, a large mail
steamer. They first perceived through the
fog her masthead and green lights on the
port bow. She was coming at an angle
toward them. They Immediately star
boarded their helm, and so passed clear.
They all declare that she was the Cimbria,
aud that she was not so undlng her whistle.
This occurred three hours before the colli-
sion. Another captain of Wilson Line
steamer declares that he has seen the chief
engineer Of the Sultan, who says he was not
on duty at the time Of the collision. He
was on deck in the after-part OF the vessel
Tor an hour and a half afterward. He
heard no cries. Every person on board the
sultan believed that the Cimbria had
steamed away.
