Production and Destruction.
On looking over recently somjof
tho newly mado incomo tax returns,
wo wero struck by tho.io attached
tj two names in particular. Mr.
MeCormick, of Chicago, ugiicullu
ral implcmonl n.aker, and inventor
of a wry useful reaping machine,
gets credit for l:st year's incomo at
tho very respectable figuro of about
n quarter of a million dollars. It is
gratifying to soo Mr. McCorn'.ick
thus basking in a brilliant prosper
ity. It gives nssurauco th.Ungii.
culturo cannot bo in a declining
Htato. Hut Mr. MeCormick is alto
gether distanced in tlio raco by the
Colt family, ono of whom is the
widow of o late member of tho firm.
Thoy return the stupendous sum of
two millions of dollnrs for their
ycar'y gains. Tho success of that
well-known instrument Coil's re
volver, accounts lor much of this
vnstnesa of acquisition. It is la
iitonlablo, tbo St. Louis Republican
soys, that tho rewards for improvements
in tlio implements of death,
should so far exceed those obtained
for facilitating tho means for tho
sustunanco of human life. And yet
tho rago fur increat-ing tho powers
of destruction is, if anything, be
coming more intense. Millions up
on millions aro being spent upon
iroiisiding slops, constituting mon
itors, rifling guns, great and small,
woighing in tbo scales of experi
ment the comparative powors of im
pact nod resistance, Thus it is in
this nineteenth century, rich in tho
accumulations of tlio experience and
wisdom of tlio past, and boasting
an advanced civilization, tho groat
rivalry among tho nations is to ob
tain tbo most cllicicnt menns to de
stroy; Thero is but littlo roasou,
too, for hoping that u stugo for rest
is about being ultJincd. No, the
probability is,. that what may bo
called malignant scicnco nod vic
ious ingonuit', stimulated by the
rich rewards behtowed upon thorn,
will so strain in their exertions
t ol inlelhaahii'Utt'tu thuir past
(rchiovtncn'.s.
Grant as a Dancer.
From tho following extract from
a lottor or tho Annapolis corrospon
dent of tho New York Ilorald, iriv
iog an account of tho ball at tho Na
val Acudomy at Annapolis, it ap
pears that General (.Irani is just

The Cuban Insurrection.
Havana telegrams, undor date of
Sunday, say that the following
news has been received from Santi
ago do Cuba, and tomes from Bpaa
inli sources : A schooner recently
landed a party of ono hundred fil
ibustcrsat Tort Battcquori, sixty
miles enst of Santiago. Tho pnrty
wus bulraycd by iUguido, who gave
information of tlioif landing to tlio
oflicors in command at IWaco:
Troops of Iho garriiwn marchod
out, and, coming op with Iho fili
busters, attacked thorn. In tho
fight, fifty of tho latter woro killed,
and tho rest wero taken prisoners.
Tho lendor of tho party was shot
on tho spot, and iho prisoners were
taken to Pan lingo for cxicution.
All tho stores of tho expedition
wero ruptured, including Iwo mil
lions of dollars is undersigned rev
olutionary euirer.ey, severnl hun
dred rifles, nnd threo or four pciccs
a( artillery.
Tho reports of heavy engage-,
iiients at Puerto Fadro aro confirm
ed. Tho Spaniards admit a bws of
sixty killed, and estimate that of
tho Cubans ut ono thousand two
hundred killed ami wounded.
Tlio insurgent General Manned was
killed in this buttle. This, too, is
from Spanish sources, and is nnro
