WASHINGTON, April II.


Col Pat McCaull, the republican
candidate for Governor of Virginia last
November, says he has bought the
Praean S prings in Loudoun county,
and will make arrangements at once for
putting the water thereofupon the mar
ket. There is no hotel at the springs
now, but next year he proposes forming
a stock company and erecting one. The
Colonel says he has abandoned politics
now and will devote himself hereafter
to more profitable employment: but
that he will always hold himself in
readiness to help the people OF his dis
trict to the full extent of his power.

the message has been referred will sup
port the Presidents views, and Il g
opinion is gaining ground in administra-

sentiment has been developed than
seemed probable week ago, and the
expectation is that when put to the
test of vote the Presidents recon-
mendations will receive the support of a
majority of both Houses of Congress.

Now THAT the filibuster correspon-
dents of the Northern yellow journals
have left Cuba, the people of this coun'
try may expect to obtain at least some
unparalleled intelligence from that
island, and the censorship of press dis

there, may probably be removed. H.
telligent persons, intimately acquainted
aud entirely familiar with the present

spect of those of another, as Americans
have been about what has been and is

thousand people witnessed a bloody
fight between two African lions and a
Mexican bull yesterday. The audi.
ence included the whole American

The bull, without q moments hesita-
ton, sprang at the lion and caught him
on his horns under the foreleg and
threw him backward fifteen feet against
the bars, knocking the breath and fight
completely out OF bin. Another lion
was then provided. 1t made a good
fight, but was gored numerically and
taken from the ring in a dying condi-
ton. The Governor then stopped the
fighting.
