The Spanish authorities seiionsly op pose the open surrender ol the cap tured vessel to an American fhip, and at one timo the opposition to xhat procedure wiwso tiller tliat it appeared tins government would fcive to make some concession in the manned or place of the delivery ol fc'n vessel, or further difficulty would he forthcoming.

The Cedar Rapids Daily Republican, ot Saturday, whose editor Mr. A. II. Neidig, is Chairman of the Repu'oli can State Central Cuniinittoo, con tains the following relative to the Ft, Madison Wardenship Mr. Dexter, the popular Sheriff of Tarn* county, we are informed, is a candidate far the office of Warden of the Peniteatiary at Ft Madison. Mr. Dexter has the reputa tion of being a nan possessing in an ad mirable manner (tie qualifications and re quisites for that responsible positioA. The Marshalitown Republican gives him the fol lowing handsome endorsement: KjiigHt..Dexter, wh) has been Sheriff of Tatna cc/uuty for the eight years lasl past, will be u candidate for Warden of the Pen itentiary at Ft. Madison. Mr. Dexter is a man of food sense, of good judgment, of good character, afcd gcod constitution, and possessed with all the requ site ability to make a Warden of when, no jne need be Mbapie'l, Knight is a strong man, atd TSill irak's a stro:i£ run and if lie is not elec'f t'y tLe legislature it will be because they don't know h'm. To which the Toledo CHRONICLE 3sponds The Republican never favored the rlcction of a tetter mnn to an rfrco, and we are W* yv U I & Wiig ing counties. We heartily coticur in all our eotemporary toys of Mr. Dext»r, who is woithy as a MAN, as P. faithful and tried officer, and who will, if clected, look well to the interests of the Peritentiary. The of fice of Warden is one among the mcst im portant in the gift of the Legislature, and our Sheriff is a man who will "fill the bill'' in every particular. Ve have no doubt but that Mr. Dexter is one of the very best men in the State for the position, and that the Legislature could not do better than clcct l!'ra (c that cilice.

Wc very much regret to find it nocossat'v to Announce that the thrif ty and cntorpiising town of Traer, in this county, lias been thus early in its existence visited by a destructive fire, tho particutars of which are briefly as follows: On Monday maht about midnight fire broke out in the general store of I). A. Holmes, anl tho building and stock were well nigh gone before tho firo was dis covered. Tho fire extended to the new store buildine of Portei field's (just enclosed and partly shingled) which war eitifalcd cast of Holmes' stoic- The wind was blowing quite strongly from the west and conveyed the fite to Picket's grocery build ing, waich had just been plastered, and which, like tho two other build ings named was soon entirely de stroyed. The fitio building of Den nis tfc Averil was next in the course of the Amies and was soon reduced to nshes. Penrose «fc Park* had quite a heavy stock of hardware cn nearly all removed before the fire reached the building. Mr. IIoltries loses his entire stock and his btok«, with infillmcc cnongh to about balance the accounts against him. Porteifield's loss is about $C00 Picket's $1,000, snd Dennis & Av eiill's about $2,000. No insurance on lie last three buildings. PROM CHELSEA. On Thanksgiving Day J. W. Shaler, station and express agent of this place, was married to Miss Ralda Tioe. He returned fiom his wed ling tour on Tuesday and on Tlursday ho was ruthlessly torn away lrotn his yorng bride and Sent to—not to State Prison but to Stale Centre, and his wages rained $10 per month. Mr. Van Dusen takes his place here as station agent, and Stephen Smith is acting as express agent. Two ot the foimer business men of this place have found their lead in becoming lager beer ists. They keep a model establishment and their motto is F. L. T. (Fresh Lngor, Treat.) The latest thing in literature is an original romance entitled "Big Fing ered Pole, rr tho History of a Lost Hammer,'', the publication of which is soon to be cofnmenced in one of the Chelsea papers. Mr. T. J. Finch is preparing t,i move his foundry to Tjaet^. i«ior ol the st am flouring mill here disap peared on the niylit of the 27th of last month and has not been seen or heaul from nince. The mill is full of grists and he had made all prepa rations for running the mill next day and as tho keys are also musing, there is considerable cussing and dis cusing among the farmers about how they are to get their grists out of the mill. Mysterious disappearances bare become common here. About a year ago C. II. Silverman, a Russian peddler, started out on a peddling tour, as was his custom, and has not returned yet or made any remittance for the payment af his debts. About the scino timo one A. J. Ratnson started for the southern part of the States lor a load of apples. He is per haps waiting for the trees to mow largo enough to bear. He left some '.liing for his numerous friends to re member him by. Also about the same time one W. O. Stevens sud enly disappeared without taking tunc to settle up. Last spring Edi tor Yarham started out on tho hunt of locals and has not returned yet. About a month ago a family by the name of Roberts disappeared one night leating their household good* and debts behind. The report is hero that neither Taina City, Toledo or Traer is to bo blest with the new party paper, but that its projectors havo found their JLiren at Eureka.

Tho reverend speaker referred to tho degradation and ignorance ol the people of Catholic Italy, amid all ihcir wealth of Art, uia'gniricent Ca thedrals, splendid mftsic, sunny skies, fertile soil, and seemingly everything that would tend to elevate and en noble tho race, and contrasted it with tho education, liberty and bless ings enjoyed in Protestant countries where we have tree religion, open Bible and a free press.

Ward, fore man of the Cedar Rapids Republican Bindery, will be a candidate at the coming session of the Legislature for State Binder. Tama County never received better work from any bindery than has been fun.ished dur ing tlm past year by Mr. Ward from the llnjtiblican Bindery and we are glad to learn that so excellent a workman will present hi* claims to the Legislature. That Linn can pre sent claims equal to those of any other county in the State 'or tho of fice ean hardly bo questioned, and t-hould the Legislature consider fa vorably the claims of Mr. Ward and elect him an excellent choice will be made. Jerry Forney, tho epicurean, fur nished us with a bouncing turkey for Thanksgiving. Uncle Jimmy Quinn brought us in a yard of the very bent of sausage, and other parties loaded lis with chickens. Wc arc obliged to all of them.—Marshall Republican. Wish wo had a few of your folks down here. Bi o. McCracken. A FABLE. Once upon a time a great -while ago, A Peacock married a carrion Crow The Peacock strutted up and down and acted the fool, like a circus clown He spread his tail like a Chinese fan, And round and round the barnyard ran, And callcd to the Turkeys in his august pride, To come and see his beautiful bride, And hear a duet, a lovely sing, Afc-J stay to sup with the graud bon Ion. Tho Turkeys proud of Ihe honor shown As a pig of his tail, or a dog with a bone, And anxious to sec the stranger bride, And pet a square meal of corn beside, And iticiwe lief drers and bear her sing, And have as good time as a child iu a s^ing, Assembled all, at the appointed time, With best Lib and tucker, and feathers piime And nil were received with a great ado By Mr. and Mrs. Peacock, too. Compliments flattering were passed around, And, when a lice place for each was found Tuey all sat down flat upon the ground, And, with patience decidedly profound, Waited fur supper to be handed around. An licur passed on, when with a bound, Came Mrs. P's steward, a big puppy bound, With pieces of flesh from a dccayed doe, The favorite dish of the genus crow, And placing a piece before each one, Went out to bark at the Jenny s young son. "Caw, Oaw," says Mrs. I'., O, my! I'm awful holler, Sd pitca ie friends, like a hog in the waller. Aud you, dearest P., don't look so glum, For this is the best dish ever teen, I num.'' Then with her claws, eho filled her hungry maw, And never looked round, and never once saw, And with righteous indignation were e'»B about "bust." Now old Mr. P. was taken quite aback And shut up bis fan and looked awful black. But not to make a scene he lowered his creil, And says he, Mre. P. my deirest and best. Let's have our duet, that our friends may Lear Some beautiful music, to titillate the car. Coinc, now, Mrs. P., my dear geu'.le Anna, Let us adjourn te our fine grand piaitner." When all was ready, they commenced a roaring song, Hut made a horrid noise like the pounding of a gou j. The Turkeys all were frightened and away they did 11 f, And etopped i»i to bid thoir P. friends good-bya. MOBAT.
