THE SHOW.

The Shaw Co., has been playing
at Lloyd's opera house this week
to large and appreciative audience
Their plays were clean and above
reproach, such as the most refined
lady in the land might attend
without a blush. Their band and
orchestra music is fine while the
street parade is hard to bat.
Everyone that has attended so far
il thoroughly delighted with it.
Mr.. Alien the manager and Mr..
Shaw, the proprietor, have both
called at our office and we find them
gentlemen of the highest order SO
far as we are able to discern.

RENT and INTEREST.

Rent and interest are giving the
people who toll more trouble than
anything else
The Pittsburg Kansan pbiloso-
phises on these two twin evils
thusly:
Rent and interest are the rich
mans servants and the poor mans
masters.
AS servants they are restless, az
masters they are relentless.
They never strike.
They don't clamor for eight hours
a day.
They never take day off-never
60 fishing.
They know no holy day-they
take no holiday.
They toll for their masters every
moment of every hour of every day
throughout the year, not for one
second do they release their hold
OH their victims.

 Steamer Cardinal, Abandoned.

Baltimore, Md. Feb. 21.-The Lord line steamer Lord Charlemonte, Capt. McNieker, from Ardrossan, just ar rived here, brought the crew of the British steamer Cardinal, of New castle, which was abandoned Febru- ary 15 in latitude 40 north, longitude 60 west.

Soon after getting to sea she encountered terrific gales, and seas swept over her, carrying away her bulwarks and food ing her hold. Until Monday, Febru- ary 13, her crew endured great hard ships from cold and hunger, and on the morning of the 18th, when the Lord Charlemonte hove in sight, it was decided to abandon her. Capt. Charles Kemp, the Cardinals commander, and his crew of q men. launched two of their boats and reached the Charle- monte in safety, after which the boats were abandoned.

PAYMENT OF THE CUDANS.
Efforts Making to Reconcile the Rad ical Element Among the Cubans
 to Uncle Sam's Plan.
LOAN TO MAKE GOOD THE DEFICIENCY,
The United States to be Asked to Sanction the Redemption of S2, 100000 Of Cuban Bonds Issued in Aid of the Cuban In- surrsction and Actually Spent in War Expenses.

Washington, Feb. 21.-Efforts are making, with every prospect of sue cess, to reconcile the radical element among the Cubans to the proposition of the United States government to pay the soldiers of the Cuban cause $3,000,0o0 This is expected to be ac- complished through q rather sweeping authorization by the United States gov ernment for the incurment of con siderable loan to make good the de- ficiency between the sum the United States agrees to pay to the troops, end the sum the Cuban leaders believe to be the smallest that can be paid with benefit and due regard to justice, So for the proposition has not taken official shape here. but the admins tration has been quietly sounded by the Cuban contingent, who have ex- pressed qualification at the prospects. Gen. Gomez himself is expected to broach the plan formally when he be- gins his conference with Gen. Brooke in Havana. Gomez has arrived at Ma tanzas, making his way very slowly towards the capital. What is pro posed is that the United States shall sanction the floating of bonds by the Cuban municipalities or provinces to the amout of $7,000,000, which sum is to be paid by the United States. The municipalities are to set aside cer- tain proportion from the receipts from customs and other sources of taxation to meet the bonds.
 In addition to this, the United States government is to be asked to sanction the redemption out of the customs receipts of the bonds issued in aid of the Cuban rebellion to the amount of $2 300, ,o00
 Data, it is stated here, will be pro dueed by the Cuban assembly to show that every cent of this sum was ex- pended in legitimate war expenses.
