The Cuban Kevolntion Gaining
Strength Assassination of
General Arango-Inter-eetiog
News from
Hayti.
jorrffpondence iromNcuvlta, Cuba (Feb. 2),
ey:
In my lat, of the 231 nit., I fpoke of the
efforts of the Feaoe Ccmrausloncro to a-rive at
a settlement. Things were progressing favor
ably; one of the insurgent generals. Aogusto
Arango, had several interviews with Meiers.
Tnraayo and Corea. On tno 21d Arango came, to
tbis city and wan closeted with too colourl com
mui'Oinp, the commander of Ibe marines, and
the Governor of tho town. It was well knowu
tbat Arango had great Influence, aud repre
sented the flower oi the insurgents ot this dis
trict, and he represented I ha, be had great honen
ol auccedinir. in hia mi'sion of peace. 11 ! niter
wards went to the liiruigeut encampment, be
tween Bagaand Han Miguel, aud had interviews
with vsnona of the chiefs In conucils aud with
a men, ber of the Central Committee. He wiote
on the 34th tbat the prospects were fair for such
amicable arrangement if would be pleasing to
the lrierds ot the country. Ho subsequently
left for Precipe with despatches for Oosernor
Mcna, including one from Dulce, urging any
settlemi nt tbat could be honorably made to all
portica. Arrived at the outrklttt ol the city ho
presented bis papers totbe commander or the
guard, and was takeu into the city by an oificcr
and an escort ot six men. Alter entering the
town bis escort fell on him with their swords
and brutally Pf-sajsinated him. IIU body was
thrown into a catt aud carried through the
town. Toe fact becoming known to the insur
gents has terribly exasperated them. Those
Cnbans who were left m the cities and towns
have gone to join tbelr countrymen iu the
field, burning to avrnge the death of Arango,
Tble information reached hereon tbo 28-ti, and
immediately the Spaniards started the report
that Arango bad been killed by orders of
Qnesada and by bis own countrymen.
Thisch'ef was looked upon as the bravest
man iu tue country; noblo and chivalrous, the
best swordsman on the island, a splendid shot,
and a man ot great endurance. In 18.il, when
quite a lad, he was out wi h Joaquin Aeuero,
and in a skirmish he was severely wouuued.
The Ppani h toldipns came acres him on the
field aud supooacd him to be dviog. An oilicer
told one ot the toldiers to finish him, and obey
ii g orders, the man pta-ed his niutket near his
head and fired, leaving bim for dead. The
wouud was terrible, but not fatal. Uc revived
during the night, crawled ihrouch, the wods,
bufibes, and' fields to a knoall farmhou-ie, the
inmates of which took care of him. His
brother. Ilr. Aoguutln A'ano, now practising
in New York, performed the operation cf tre
panning and saved Irs life, to bo taken away in
the same cause neventeeu years after.
The Spaniards, until recently, held San Miguel
with socud 150 men, but the insurgen's, having
twice captured the train, moving thither witu
provisions, tho troop' abandoned it at midDight
et the 30tb in a very hurried manner, leaving a
iaree quaiitity of ammunition, over 23.000 Pea-
oo uy caitr.oges, ana an ineir biores. rne town
was occupied next moralng by the insurireuts,
and thev now bold possession down to the vil
lage of tiuja ou the bay.
Ou the evening of the 31st arrived the Spanish
man of war Francesco dc Asis, bringing some
forty sappers and miners, a tew artillery men,
aud two mounta n howitzers. By same steamer
arriveo unca'iier ijeica, appotniea 10 relieve
Mna at Puerto Principe when he can cet
there. Her Britannic Majesty's ship Roya.iht
arrived vesterday lr-.-m Jam-ilca, to look after
tbe interests oi British subjects iu this quarter.
Bv nurtu e c. mmg ju tbrougU the lines of the
insurgents i, Is reported .hat General Valme
eada baa been taken prisoner between Bayamo
and Manzamllo, with bU escort and part ct bis
staff. Matters ore in no better condition hero
than they have been for the past two months.
Indeed, I think for tbo Moverament they are
much worse every wav, and that the
insurrection In this quarter is daily gaining
strength, and I sincereU believe that the troops
btre con6iler "discretion tbe bolter part of
valor," and for that jeason do not go out.
Moreover, i am convinced in&i u mis coitimn
ot over 1600 men co go out they will be de
stroved be, ore they rench Princloe. Some de
sertion of Spanish soldiers have taken place.
TENNESSEE.
Alleged Robbery or School Moneys.
Nashville, Feo. 6. The school fund pecula
tion of Tennessee, mauaged through tho Na
tional Bank of Memphis, has been the cause of
aome affl.ction during the putt week. It is
currently rumored here whether with or
wit coat reason l cannot tay mat Anarew
Johufou has been instrumental in bringing
about this investigation. If this be true, be has
managed to make some irieuas recently among
the radical members of the legislature. And it
he can move tbeui to a vierorous prosecution of
rascality, I t-uggest lor his consideration a still
deeper tuoject in connection with the school
lund.

HORRIBLE TRA QED Y.
A ttmn Attempts to Hum Ills Wife nnl
lilltt I:c-mn1 vcly Hrutnl I'ouUaet.
GONCORO, N. H., Feb. 12. A moat brutai
tragedy has lecemly transpired in tbo tovn of
Hut on. About two weeks airo several persons
whose borne are near the sou' h viiluee ot Sut
ton weio alarmed by loud shrieks and cries tor
assistance, which emanated from the dwelling
ot a mun named IB el v in Mitchell. They at once
pro ceeded to the place, where they found Mrs.
Mitcbeil almost burned to death. Tbe clothing
she was wearing was almost consumed, and
her lower limbs, one of her arms, and other
portions of her body were tbockiugly eaten by
ibe flames, i physician was Irapicdiat Iy sent for,
and everything po-sible done for thesutlerer by
kind and sympathizing neighbors, wbo teared
she could not survive until iho next morning.
Hte lingered, however, aud was alive this m rn
inc, adbough ber recovery is extremely doubt,
ful. Boon after the toovo occurrencu many of
the Sutton people had their su-tpic ous aroused
us to the manner in wh cli the accident
occurred. Mrs. Mitchell said it was caused by
the bursting ot a kerosene lamp. It was kno-vu
at tbe same time that Mitchell wis a hard
character, and that he bad often been very
cruel to his family. The physician, Ur. Jaaies
R. Smiley, entreated the sufferer to explain all
tbe clicumstances of the case. For a time all
his efforts In that direction were unavailing.
At lat she said one day that she wanted to tell,
but was afraid her hutbaud would kill her.
Finally, when assured that sue would be protected
from ber husband, she gave her testimony be
lore a justice ot the peace as fully as her leeble
condit on would permit, Sie said that on the
evening of the acoident she was sitiiug In otre
comer of tbe kitchen near an open tire, when
suddenly hor husband threw a bottle of kero
sene oil into the flames. The bottle in ntantly
broke, and its contents flew in nil diieetions,
considerable of It gotng upon Mrs. Mitchell's
clotLing. At the sumo time it took (ire, aad
she was immediately enve'oped in flames.
Unassisted by her buluud, sh-j endeavored to
extinguish the fire, hut without success, hhe
then ran into an adjoining room, her burning
clothing dropping Irotn her at every step. Her
husband pretended to assist her, but while he
d d, whether intentionally or not, only neara
vuted his wife's sufferings, for he opened a door
and also took a stick and poked about ber
clothing. At last, when tbe flames reached the
Soor woman's tnee, and threatened to choke
tr, he displayed some lectin?, anl, getting
some water, put out the Are, and then called
tne neighbors. Mrs Mitchell also gave further
partichlara of her hui-band's cruelty to herself
and children. One eveniuGr, about a week before
toe sad event above related occurred, Mitchell
took bis youneest child, a b ibo about three
mouths old, and under the plea of endeavoring
to stop it from crying, ho hell it betwen two
rocks In the fireplace, u&ed instead ot andirons,
and over the flames, until one side ot its face
was horribly burned frcm its chin to i's scalp.
He afterwards struck the child a severe blow on
tbe o'her side ot its face, and choked It until it
was black and blue, and then gassed it with a
handkerchief. All this was done in the presence
ot the mother, who dared not utter a word, lest
he sbonld kill both tbe oniid and herself. Im
mediately after Mrs. Mitchell bad male known
the above, her brother, James Rowe of VVilroot,
caused the arrest of Mitchell on a complaint
charging him with attempting to tike tho lite of
bis wi'e. All the justices ot tbe peace In Sutton
(aid they were o preiU'iicea iigatnst Ml'.cacii
that thev were disqualified tor holding a coirt
for bis preltinnary trial. Ho was accordingly
taken by depuiy-sbenii John O Wadleigh to
Bradford, and arraicne i before N. C. Lear. Eu
Mi'cbell nleaded not guilty, but tbe testimony
against him was co strong that he was bound
over for trial inihe Supreme Judicial Oourt
in deiaultof bail be was yesterday morning
oommlt'ed to jail in Cousord. Before he left
Button tbe women tbero were so incensed
auainstbtin that they threatened to take bis
case into their own hands. Mitchell Is ibout
thirty years of age. and has long sustained
bad reputation. He is sometimes iutemperate,
but there is no evidence that be was in liquor
when committing the above diabolical deeds.

Under tbe date of Jan. 27. the correspondent

Civil Governor, accompanied by his highest

of the chief officers of the police, proceeded to

the square before the Miuster, cillcd the jPlaia

with any hindrance or molestation. At tho door
of the cbuicb be was received by three
Canons and tbe Dean, who, upou bearing his
errand, offered to shov him the way to the
Archive. Asoou as tho Governor had crossed
the threshold of the church the doors were
closed, and a picket of Ctvil Guards, or
gendarme?, stationed themselves before it. One
ol tbe officers ot this force writes to bis euporior
that the voice of the Archbiebop was beard to
cry for help, and that one of the boils from tbe
steeple sounded the alarm (lacabo a arrtbato).
The mob. apparently at that siunal, wcutrouuJ
tho b'lildiUL', and forced a way both Into thd
church and the cloiKter. The cries of the mul
titude were "Mwra tl Oohenukdorl Viva la

which led Into the cloitr, he aked what
the people wanted: but tbese cloj"d

PARAGUAY.
Detalla or the Recent Battle Kiliuatel
lvHe on Bosli Hide.
Bnenos Ayres, South America, correspondence
to the 18th of December last, gives ui the lol
lowiup; lutormatiou:
The United Slates fleet has reached VUlela,
the onlv etroncboid left by which Lopez com
mands the river Paraquat-. The ntssaip Wasp
lett the otner kteamers below, aud went up to
tbe fort. There General MacMahon sout?ht an
interview with Lopez, and it was granted, aud
our only intormation np to thlH hour Is that the
Interview lasted a whole day, and no result was
made known.
Lopez has been to buy with various prcesinjr
rout ers of a oifferent kind that it is a wonder
tbat he gives any time at all to diplomatic taU.
No one doubts but that if those two young inon
are, still liviojr, and it Is believed that they
are they will be riven up promptly by Lonoz.
This, with the proper concession tor having
iucolted the flag, Is the occasion f tbe visit of
tbe United Btates tqundrou to Paraguay at this
time.
On December 6 there were about 8000 men
passed over the river Paraguay above Villet i.
They had trone by land around the tort to bo
able to attack it on tbe flunk aud fear. On the
next nay 6000 more passed across, and they
puf tied on atonce towards the fort. They were
met at a brldpe where 4000 Paraquayan8, wih
4 iron guns, held them at buy for several hours.
At leneih the Paraguayan retired to a ron 1
near bv, where they had 18 guoB concealed, and
tbe Allies, crosncf freely the bndie, wero
a-salled by a most destructive tiro. This was a
vigorous toiight bafle, where most of the lead
ing allied officers were killed or wounded. The
day closed with no decided gain to either party.
It was one of a serleB of encounters, and both
sides prepared for f nr.ber action.
Tbe Allies received more mn. drew np their
fleet, and proceeded. December 7, towards tno
fort again, aud tauingthlseiub'een-eun redoubt
in the way. carried it heroically. Hi defender,
(ionmlr. died at hia tost.
On the Oib Maqtiis Caxias priceedd aeaiu,
and put all the troops in motiou for Villcta. Kl
a pats called Paso Toro the Paragnayaas again
made a stand, and with six guus kept tho whols
army at bay. - Tbo Allies report a loss of 000
before they forced their passage at this poiut.
This whs another link in the chain.
Again, December 11. another move was
made, aud General Cabulloro. with 4000 Para
guavanc, held tbe pas lor three hours, uutil
the General birasel fell mortully wounded, 000
of his men weie urisoners, and the rest were in
retreat. Th's freed the way toVilieta; anl
while this last action was in process, Larez
was packing np. and left during tbe dav, with
all that was convenient to take, for Lno.ue,
where he makes another stand. At lastaccounts
the Allies were preparing to attack Angostura,
tho only remaining fort on the river.
It is impossible to tall what these batttcs may
have cost In human life, but correspondents
from the armv put down the Allied losses at not
Ws than 7000 men. They tell u's'jof heavy
Paraguayan losee. but tho ex let numbers can
not b told yet. Instances of the most heroic
bravery, never excelled auywheie, have oc
curred on both sides. -.
