A decisive Battle Expccted.

NEW YoRk, July 2S.-A cablegram
from Coquimbo says: The report that
has been sent out to foreign countries
about an engagement at Huasco, in
which the congressional troops were
routed, is without any truth. There
was no such engagement. The Junta,
having landed 1000 men there, intended
to make an advance upon the south.
Since their landing they have not met
the Balmacedans. In regard to the vic
tory of the government troops at Valle-
mar, it has been greatly exaggerated.
In reality it had very little Importance.
AS 1 have already cabled you, however,
there is general belief here that fight
will take place III this vicinity within a
short time.

Edwin Booth Dying From the Effects OF

same character, as that which shut out
the life OF General Grant. Joe jefferson
and ex-President and Mrs. Cleveland
have been striving to reform Mr.. Booth
in this respect and for while they par
tally succeeded, but the habit had too
strong q hold upon him and his indui-
gences became more unrestrained than
ever. 1t is because of this relapse and
because he can get no better in health
that he left here suddenly last Saturday.
He has gone 10 Narragansett pier.

We have made these remarks in
the exercise of our duty to COM
ment on matters of public moment,
because the occasion for them has
arisen and they ought to be made,
and because no other journal dares
make them. It is not a pleasant
task to comment adversely on the
fitness of individuals for office. We
are only too happy when the course
of public events affords no oppor-
tunity for references of the kind;
when the performance of our duty
is possible without wounding the
susceptibiIities of anyone. But, un-
happily, such a course, however
attractive, is not always possible.
The public welfare is intimately
bound up with the character of pub
lie officials, and when these are IN
efficient Or corrupt, there can be no
safety for the State. The position
of journalist is as much
one of public trust as that of the
Marshal himself. We could not
abstain from comment on the
matter adverted to above without
Sinking a very plain duty. That
duty is for the moment discharged,
and it is for the community to act.
1t might be we'll to call a mass
meeting, without distinction of
party, to demand the appointment
of a Marshal whom all can trust.
The occasion is q critical one, and
we desire very solemnly to warn
the public that if they do not rouse
themselves from their lethargic IN
difference and act, worse things
will be added unto them.

Pirate not of your Englishmen famous

They're not to be named in the same
category,
Or compared to advantage with me;
For whether engaging in services ac-

Performing the duties (?) of secret

Or hurting on newspapers scathing
invective,
I excel in the highest degree.
I am ready to vouch for my actions
My logic arrives at conclusions judi
And I scorn to engage in a game pre-
judicial
To fugitives passing this way;
For though their transgressions are
known and detected,
II the criminals haven't been tried
= and convicted,
I deem it my duty to see them pro-
tected
In accordance with English fair
play
When the Government sought to de-
tain the yacht Beagle,
1 scented a plot to entrap and in
veigle;
And viewing procedure as wholly
illegal,
[ acted as Englishmen ought.
And such to the right was my English
(?) devotion
In securing the triumph of every fair
notion,
That the criminal owners are sailing

Not guilty, because they're not
caught!

there's not an ounce of ivory
