lb* Steamer "admiral" Lauded
Mini at Havana - How lie bai Re
ceived HU Future JMovenaeutN.
Havana, January 22.—At half-past
eleven o'clock this morning the steamer
Admiral arrived here, having ou board
General aud Mrs. Grant, Colonel Fred
Grant and his wife, General Phil Sher
idan and his wife and two young ladies.
The steamer iett Key West about two
o'clock this morning.
As the Admiral entered this port a
small steamer belonging to th* Navy
Department and carrying General Arias,
Civil Governor of the Province of Ha
vana and Confidential Adjutant of Cap
tain General Blanco,several staff officers,
Henry C. Hall, the United States Con
sal, and a number of American citizens,
among them General Webb, proceeded
to the Admiral, which they
boarded.
General Arias then tendered General
G< aut the hospitality of the city and
an abode in the palace and said that
Captain General Blanco expressed regret
at not being in the city to welcome Gen
eral Grant, but hoped to arrive befare
the party took their departure. General
Grant replied, saying he would be hap
py to meet General Blanco.
General Grant's visit here is exciting
considerable interest, he being consid
ered the greatest celebrity in America.
On landing the party entered carriages
belonging to the Captain General aud
were driven to the palace, where, after
their reception at the foot of the stair
case by General Callejas, Vice Govern
or General, aud Joaquin Cirbonell, Sec
retary of the Government, they entered
aud inspected the palace. The party
then sought repose from the fatigues of
the voyage.
The party will take passage in the
steamer City of Alexandria, hence for
Vera Cruz ou the 12th or 13th of Febru
ary, but before proceeding thither Gen
eral Grant intends making a trip to
Hayti and probably to other West India
islands on board a United State3 war
steamer. General Grant said that lie
came to Cuba merely to see the country,
but would accept several invitations he
had received to visit some plantations.
The party took a drive this afternoon
and will to-night receive some friends
who happen to be in Havana. Colonel
of Engineers Cerero, Commander Riv
era, Chief of Staff and Cavalry Com
mander Sandoval, Adjutant of Captain
General Blanco, have been commission
ed to attend General Grant and party
during their stay here.
Eloped, Married, Forgiven.
Miss Nellie Flanagan is a very prEtty
daughter of Kx-Coroner Flanagan, of
New York. She i* sixteen years of age,
petite and has dark hair aud eyes.
When she returned to her father'*
bouse last spring, having spent a few
months at a convent school near Mon
treal, Mr. WalliDgton Watson, a son of
Ex-Auditor Watson, fell desperately in
love with her. As Mr. Watson was on
ly nineteen years old, the young lovers
got it into their heads that their parents
would oppose the match aud so ou Mon
day of last week they eloped. The
night of that romantic day came, and
then the old folks became so much
alarmed at the absence of their children
that both of the new-made mothers in
law tainted aud took to their b*ds.
Mis* Nellie and Mr. Watson succeeded
iu getting married aud took the first
train for Poughkeepsie, where they re
mained in hiding until Tueeday of this
week. Then they returned to find
wholesale forgiveness and best wishes,
much to their surprise, of oourse, be
cause they had expected squalls. They
will live with the bride's family uutil
Mr. Watson shall have attained his
majority, when he will become pos
sessed of Eoasider >ble means.
Auifry Democratic Keuators.
#Washington, Jan. 22.—The Presi
dent having withdrawn the nomination
made for Supervisor of Census for the
Sixth Indiana District because he was a
Democrat, the two Senators from that
State have covered themflelve* with
war-paint, and are determined to way
lay the Republican who may be Dom
inated in place of the man who was
withdrawn. Mr. Voorhees said he did
not object to the President confining
his nominations to Republican*. This
was supposed to be a Republican Ad
ministration, aud Republicans, there
fore, were entitled to the Executive pa
tronage.
If it was a Democratic Administration
he felt confident Republicans would
not lie invited to participate in the
spoil*. But when the President select
ed a Democrat for Supervisor of
Census, and subsequently withdrew
his nomination because the nominee
was a Democrat, Mr. Voorhees felt like
iuterposingan objection to consenting to
the appointment. It might have been a
mistake to make the nomination in
question because the man was a Demo
crat, but it was a greater mistake to
withdraw it for like reason after it was
made.
Another Adventhl Atrocity.
Di'Bi'qi.'E, Iowa, Jan. 22.—Great ex
citement prevails at New-Hampton,
Iowa, over a supposed horriblti'murder.
An Adventist preacher named Elder
Buck resides near there, aud makes a
living by revealing secrets which lit
says are confided to him by spirits.
One day last Fall a ueighor, hearing
screams from the house of Buck, and
seeing hi* wife wringing her hands in
agony, looked through the door and
saw Buck beating his youDg son, who
was tied to the bed. Since that time
the boy has been missing, and as
Buck belongs to the same class ol re
ligious fanatics as Freeman, of Mausa
chusett*, it is believed that lie killed
the boy. Mr. Buck declares that the
boy ran away. Buck has fled, aud the
citizens are making an investigation.

Watertown, N. Y., Jan. 22.-At the
recent charter election in thiscity Mr.
B. B. Taggarts, the well-known paper
manufacturer succeeded in getting elec

opposition being mainly Democratic.
Mr. Taggarts lias thu* succeeded in
revolutionizing the City Government,
which heretofore has been in the hands
of the Democrats. He is a strong man
and a popular politician, besides being,

Panama, Jan. 13 —The Cauca Valley
hae suffered a visitatiou of the floods
which seem to have been general all
through Colombia. In the early days
of December the valley was visited by
a very heavy raiu. The water rose
until It was many yards above the
highest freshet mark designated by
memory or tradition. The inhabitants
for miles along its course were driven
from their homes. The river rose until
it was over three miles in width and
went raging through the valley carry
ing all before it. Several small vil
lages were destroyed and some lives
lost, although no definite re;*ort has
been obtained. On the sntHideuce of
the storm the people were aghast at the
ruin.
Everything was destroyed in the wav
of small crops and moveables of all
sorts; cattle, goats and horses were all
gone. Cocoa farmers visited their ha
ciendas in boats, trying to gather their
crop which had been left ou the trees.
They had to go armed in order to pro
tect themselves against the immense
snakes which had been driven down by
the force of the waters. The losses are
put in the neighborhood of $1,000,000.
Blaine l<» Thank for II.
The Philadelphia "North Americau"
says it is very well understo od through
out the country,amlnowhere better than
in Maine—that for the triumph which
the Republicans iw that State have won
over their treacherous and conspiring
enemies they have Mr. Blaine to thank.
It was through his energy, through
his courage and wisdom, that the de
signs of the Kuaiouists were brought to
nothing, and the rights of the people
vindicated. James G. Blaine is a born
leader of men. He has b>th
the magnetism which attracts and

Mr. J. Henry Hanson, Assessor for

aud *77 was in town yesterday express
ing a great auxiety to know wherein
the 11 grievance " lay, which United
States Supervisors are to rectify. He
wanted this question answered with
particular application to h is own locali ty.
'*i want to know what ground they
have for charging me with any unfair
assessment," said he. "Why, let
tell you something. In the winter-of
1876, just before I hung up my assess
ment lists, four men, Joseph U. Hutch
inson, George R. Townsend, Elias N.
Moore and another man whose name
I don't care to have mentioned,
because he's going to move away,
came to me and asked me if 1 was
going to put the rest of the niggers on.
Well, I just told them to send them along
and I would put on the names of all that
they would vouch for. The uext day
they came down the road behind a big
cloud of dust. Well, as soon asl looked
at the crowd, I knew 1 couldn't get
through with them in one day or two
or three days, either, if I just took
them one at a time, so 1 says
to Hutchin»on aud these other
fellows : " You just go through this
crowd and take down the names of all
that you kuow are entitled to go ou the
assessment aud give them to me and I'll
take your word for it and put them on.
Well, they did so aud I put ou the
names of those niggers and hung the
list np in the hotel there aud it's hang
ing there yet, jand 4 none of them ever
came to pay their taxes. "
" I tell you, " said the ex Assessor
with emphasis, "there's enough nig
gers down iu Appoquinimink to out
vote the whites any day. I had over
200 of them down on my lists and the
present assessor has 117 niggers and
1 IS whites on his lists. But the Re
publican party won't pay their taxes
and they won't pay them themselves.
They say it don't make any difference
to them who are elected, they can't
get anything out of either party and
so they don t care anything at all
about voting. But there's no griev
au -e and there was none while 1
assessor; I assessed every nigger they
brought forward,ai d I want the 'Every
Evening' to p-ay this over my
that everybody will know it."

At the annual meeting of the New
Knglaud Association of Alphi Delta

1. L. Chamberlain, of Maine, was pres
ent aud w as elected President. On tak
ing the chair he spoke as follows :
"I arn giad to be here but at the
same time I am not quite sure I ought
to be here. I have not qeen used to
seeing things so one-sided of late,so ev
enly balanced. There are many thing*
I should like to say but you kuow I
am under bonds to keep the peace, and
I see others not bound. 1 wish how
ever, to say one word about the influ
ence which such an organization as this
has upon its members, apart from the
social enjoyment which it gives them.
The influence of a society like
should be great in such times; for, loyal
to its laws, members of the Alpha
Delta Phi will also be loyal to the laws
we live under. One lesson has been
taught us, which we shall see when the
smoke rolls away iu Maine, the
ness which we came to a hand to Laud

I had not supposed that the people
of Maine would ever-strike a blow with
out previously calmly reasoning upon
the matter. There is a significance in
experience, which leads beyond
thi* mouth or year,and it beooraes us to
think if an investigation is not Deeded
to discover if the foundation of
civilization is just what it should be. It
became my sole duty iu this experience
to save the people of Maine a sad lesson,

cottage about live miles from this plate.
His wife died about a year ago, at the
advanced age of 96, aud the old man is
now left entirely alone. He has child
ren, all of whom are well to do, but
these children have so far failed to
tribute towards his support, aud the
centenarian has applied to the court for
a rule to show cause why his olfspriug
should not support him in his old age.
Mr. Rockwell was for a number of years
Sheriff and also Treasurer of Pike
