MONDAY EVENING. OCT. 10. 1889

A DISPATCH from Havana says an
assaujt was made last Saturday upon
the Jail at Kayemo by some American
soldiere. who released one o. their
comrades confined there, threatened 10
kill the TAILOR, and refused to turn the
prisoner over to the police. The dis
patch adds that the people OF that
town are indignant a: the behavior OF
the eoldiers ard threaten to attack
them. No wonder all the people OF
Cuba, except those who are receiving
the money of American taxpayers,
nope, and the good ones pray, that the
American army may be recalled from
there at orce, and the promise to give
them freedom and home rule be tul'
filled. But General Ludlow, the U. ..
commander at Havana, says, or rather
the War Department reports him as cay
iug, "tbe rule of law here is practically
complete, and the rural districts are as
ORDERLY az in the interior Of New Eng
lapdn If what the General says be
true. then an army should be sent to
the rural districts of New England to
enforce law aud preserve order there.

The TranSYaal.

CapetowD, Oct. 16.-Latest advices
received here from the front in Cape
Colony and Natal contain no news OF
actual engagements between the Beers
and British, although reports show a
general advance OF the Beers on the
British positions. The van of the Boer
invading column In Natal, consisting
of 1000 men with sixteen guns, has
reached Dannhauser, fifteen miles
northeast of Dundee and ten miles
from Glencoe. The British are strongly
fortified at both Dundee and Glencoe.
Ladysmith is some forty miles to the
South. II is thought the Beers intend
to isolate Dundee from Ladysmith. The
main body of the Beers has reached
Ingsgani Station, ten miles south OF
Newcastle. An attack on Dundee may
take place today or tomorrow.
Rumors of fighting at Kimberly are
from native sources and have not been
confirmed. Kimberly is surrounded
and in state of siege. The railroad
from the Orange river to Kimberly, a
distance of so miles, is held by the
Beers. There ia no news from Mafe-
king. An armored train sent to relieve
that place has been driven back.
The Schreiner ministry (Afrikander
Bond) having refused 10 call out the
Cape Volunteers, the Imperial authori
ties have issued call on their own
initiative. The friction between the
Dutch and Euglish in the colony is
growing and the situation is becoming
critical.

ONE OF the daily newspapers CT
Washington, all of which are republ!-
can, iotimates that Congressman Epes'
OF this State. may be uDseated in the
next. as be was 10 the last, Congress.
How that could be s hard to tell, as
neither Mr. Thorp, the republican can
didate who ran against him, nor any
body else, is contesting that seat. But
imperialists imagine that the republi-
can party have the country by tie
throat and can do any thing with it
they choose. They would unseat Mr..
Epes, not because the voters 10 his dis
trict did not elect him legally and fairly,
but because he believes that govern
ment depends upon the consent OF the
governed, and is opposed to the need
less, cruel aud enormously and iraudu'
lently expensive war that ia being pros
ecuted against a people ten thousand
miles away, who are trying to defend
their native country against alien and
footing invaders, who respect neither
