gents were taken prisoners. This morning
there is no appearance OF revolution or

LATER INFORMATION.
MADRID, September 20, noon.-Addi.
tional particulars of last nights revolts
show that the insurgents also shouted
"Long Live the Republic, the Army and
SPAIN" Large numbers Of civilians joined
their ranks and when the authorities sum-
moned the military to put down the insur-
rection, the rebels madea stand for while
against the loyal troops, and it was in the
first brush between the opposite forces

realized that other troops were making no
to their appeal they abandoned
the fight in the town, and scampered for
the country in the direction OF Alcala De
Henese, q walled city in Newcastle, and
but seventeen miles from Madrid. Many
rebels gave up the fight long before the gen.
eral retreat of their comrades and made
their escape in the darkness. Authorities
are making a great many arrests for COM
plicity in the revolution, and a large pro-
portion OF the prisoners are officers. 1t is
learned to-day that the revolution was
led by
BROADER GENERAL vILLACOMPA.
He escaped on the special train which
left the city On the Southern Railway.

Madrid in search OF fugitive rebels. Tele-
grams from the provinces show that the

from the city yesterday, have been sum-
moned to return Immediately, 1t has been
learned that the Reyolutionists who start
ID for Alcala de Henese, becoming con-
vinced that the city Loyalists would stop
and possibly capture them, stopped of
their special train en- route, went back to
Madrid and fed across the country. The
streets OF the city are alive with crowds OF
people eagerly discussing the occurrences OF

THE SOLDIERS REvoLTED,

them from the quarters occupied by the
cavalry, and internlingled with the men OF

the revolution. Tie officers OF all three
regiments did all in their power to dissuade
the men from revolving. but three hundred
soldiers, after beating number Of officers

and marched in two bodies through the
town. One body went to the Prado, the
principal park and promenade OF Madrid.
Two thousand troops werequartered at the
Prado at the time, and the revolutionists
expected to be joined by them. The other
body went hurrahing through the centre OF
Madrid calling on the people 70 join in the
revolution, crying,
''LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC"

the monarch. At this time the theatres
and other places of amusement we're

MADRID, September 21.-Ali Of the
officers implicated in yesterday g
attempt at revolution have been con-
dcmned to death. A band of rebels at
Ocanm, in the province OF Toledo, killed
their commanding officer and then re-
turned to their allegiance and prayed for
mercy. The common soldiers who took
part in the uprising generally repent thsi
folly to-day and blame their officers for
leading them astray. The soldiers are
everywhere yielding to the authorities. In
the province of Toledo two bands OF rebels,
however, still hold out. They are trying
to reach the Gudaraiua mountains, and a
force OF royal troops has been sent in pur-
suit OF them. The city is quiet to-day.

THE NEW CERTIFICATES.
Great Demand Being Made for tho One
and Two Dollar Issues.

WASHINGTON, September 2O.-Arrange-
ments are being made at the Treasury De-
partment for the early distribution OF the
new silver certificates which are now being
printed as rapidly as possible. The first
batch Of one dollars certificates was re-
ceived at the Treasury Department to-day.
1t consisted OF S., 900 sheets and amounted
to $4,000. They now need only the seal
OF the Treasury Department to be finished
notes. The bureau will continue to print
these notes at the rate OF $40, 900 a day
during the present week. Additional
facilities will be supplied next week by
which the issue will be increased to
$4,000 PER DAY.
Orders for the notes in large amounts, run
ming up to several thousand dollars have
been received from all parts OF the country.
1t is the purpose Of the department. how
ever, to hold the notes until the supply
will allow pro rata distribution OF the
respective amount to each section OF the
country. and they will be shipped from
Washington so as to secure their simulta-
neous delivery at the different Sub Treas
uries. 1t is expected that the ones will
be put in general circulation in about two
weeks.
THE Two-DOLLAR CERTIFICATES
will not be ready for issue for about three
weeks yet. They are in great demand, and
their completion will be hastened as much
as possible. The printing Of IS certificates
will not be pushed particularly, as there
does not seem to be the same demand for
them. This is due to the plentiful supply
OF United States and National Bank notes
of the same denomination. The design for
the SIS silver certificates was approved by
Acting Secretary Fairchild to-day. The
portraits OF General Grant and Mr.. Tilden
were suggested as proper vignettes for this
note, and designs with these two vignettes
were submitted. The selection was under
consideration by the different officers for
several days, and was finally decided by
Secretary Fairchild in favor OF the Grant
vignette.

made upon the building by the mob. The

More Rioting IN Belfast.

BELFAST, September 21.-Desultory riot
ing accompanied by firing continued
throughoutthe city during all OF last night.
Two policemen were severely injured. How
many Of the latter were hurt is not of1ici-
ally known because the friends OF many of
them carried them away before the au-
thorities could secure them for the hospital
treatment. Twenty arrests were made
during the night. The Catholics evince a
more bitter spirit against the police and
soldiers. The appearance OF single con-
stable in one OF the troubled districts last
night was greeted with volley OF stones.
The aspect OF affairs this morning is
threatening and more firing is expected.

covered it was my wife, who had got up to
change her fiannels and was mistaken fpr
a thief. Mrs. Whitmore, in whose presence
the story was told, was asked il it WAS cor
rect. She nodded assent and attempted to
speak, but could not, although she made
most piteous attempts to do so. The hns-
band is almost crazed with glief over the
unfortunate affair. No arrest will
be made, as the shooting was accidental.
Physicians say it is impossible for the
woman to recover.

The 0Id.FashIOned BOy.

Dear old.fashioDed boy, we were
one of you, but you have disap-
peared. You are a thing Of the
past, and will live no more except
in memory and song. We can see
you now in your summer costumes
in your blue cottonade pants
buttOned to a stOrt shirt of the
same material, and in your little
wool hat, the crown of which had
grown to a point and resembled
a miniature church spire. Yellow
clay mingles with your unkempt
locks, showing that you have been
swimming in the hOrse.pOnd and
driving your head into the mud, but
withalyou are better looking, strong
er, healthier and moro manly than
the modern boy whose mother keeps
him in fine clothes and white linen,
and who knows not the Joy of
going barefoOted and wearing a
stone bruise on his heel. His
smooth and pale cheeks and deli
cate stocking.covered legs may com
pare oddly and more favorably to
your brown, plump and bare calves
and freckled, tanned and warty
face, and manners may be easier
and more refined than yours, but
we will bet you OH the general out
come every time. You are the old.
fashioned boy that make good men,
such as evolved into the Websters,
Clays and Oalhouns of this country,
but, alas you have mizzled. Your
respectful demenor, awkard polite
ness, filial devotion, modesty and
blunt truthfulness have gone. Tho
bicycle.riding, whistling, noisy, i'm
pudent and precocious modern boy,
with modern ideas and habits, has
crowded you out of existence and
taken the place you once so nObly
adorned. The cows come home at
milking time, but you, with your
rawhide whip and "bedticking" sus-
penders, are not there. You are
nowhere. You are only a sweet
memory, dear, oId.fashioned boy.

THE SCHOOL BILL.
EXTRACT FROM 4 RECENT
LETTER OF MR.. BLAIR.

Now what does this National Ed
ucational bill proposes to do! Not
to lesson the development OF the
South by any means, but on the
contrary, to increase it. 1t pro
poses to make Southern masses
more intelligent, and therefore more
highly civilized; to create among
their rapidly multiplying millions
of both races a vast increase of the
wants Of life which must be sup
piled so that Southern labor will
consume as well as produce, and
thus to receive as high wages as
Northern labor, putting an end to
the competition Of the products of
North and South, and improving
both sections by uplifting the mass
es of the people all over the coun.
try.
Consumption can only be in
creased by increasing the capacity |
to enjoy; that is, adding to the
wants of life by higher civilization,
and providing higher wages or re-
turn labor wberewith TO purchase
the more diversified and costly sup.
ply of the necessaries and comforts
of a higher life.
OF course stupid people can be
imposed upon by the false state
ments which are being circulated
of the condition of education at the
South by those, some of them pre-
tended friends, who for base reasons
pursue their malignant toll, who
hate the cause of universal intelli-
gence, which is that Of universal
elevation and freedom but that
Republicans should repudiate this
great measure after years Ofindorse-
ment OF superficial investigation,
crude thought or of mallce.-
II the Republican party is to fol-
| low the lead OF the little minds
which oppose and 10y lies and mis-
representations may defeat this
till its mission is ended. Ii is
necessary that any party whichls to
control the better destinies of the
country should comprehend It's
mission and see the way in the
light and by still greater light to
the things which concern the ma
tion's peace.
