HORRIBLE DEATH.
4 Hoy Crushed by I'onde roim Hollers,
Yesterday morning at7-10 o'clock a hoy named
John Armour was drawn into the ponderous
rollers of a machine used tor rolling steel in the
Adirondack Steel Works, at the foot of Warren
street, Jersey City, and instantly killed. When
the accident occurred the lad was engaged in
oiling the machinery, and necessarily while in
motion. Ho had temporarily removed tho
guard, a broad fender, for greater facility in oil
ing, and the spout of his can got caught in the
rollers, and foolishly retaining his hold upon it,
his hand was caught aud ho was drawn into tlio
machinerv.atthc time making 120 revolutions per
minute. The poor hoy did not have time to cry
out. and before tho machine could be stooped he
had gone through and been dropped out into tlio
pit beneath, a mangled mass of matter, the head
hehif tho only part bearing any resemblance
to a human being, a portion of the remains still
adhering to the rollers. The sudden stopping of
the oicino drew the attention of all the employes
to the spot, aud they gathered arouDd in a sorrow-stricken
crowd, each one remembering
some good trait in the unfortunate lad,
and speaking to one another in a subdued
voice. Tho remains were gathered up, and b'
permission of the Coroner, removed to the resi
dence of the mother of deceased, and will b3
Interred to-day. Tho proprietors of tho works
ordvred a funeral ut their expense.
Last fall another boy was crushed to death
by the rollers in tho same works, and at tho
suggestion of tho Coroner's jury In that case,
the proprietors caused guards to be plaiiea
around the rollers, for the prevention of like
accidents; but to oil the rollers, which amour
was engaged in doing, it was necessary to re
move the guards . J". tVrM.

One of the battalions of the 1st brigade (called

iMnniffNlo by the Cuban Leader.
Ina manifesto to "Our brethren at bayamo,
Jiguanl, and Manzanillo," the Cuban leaders
speak as follows :
These Spaniards aro the same as ever: they
are all despots; humiliating themselves before
the strong, they are insolent to cowards, and
asking pardon of the compicror; they aro fero
cious in the hour of triumph. Our
war for independence demonstrates this fact.
Worthy companions of Lolo lienitez, Manuel
lieytor, Francisco Casals, and other spurious
soils, the shame of this lovely land, they have
committed every kind of excess; have caused to
How torrents of our people's blood; have sacri
ficed barbarously persons wiihout arms, mostly
children, women, and old men: have tilled with
mourning and desolation every family, and noiV
tell us, ''Come and embrace your brothers who
have ever been such; those who torget a
thousand injuries ut the smallest manifestation
of affection." brothers, answer them thus:
"What is there in common between assassins
and their victims 't (Jet behind us, executioners !
who have not yet sufficiently glutted your thirst
for blood, and still seek to wreak upon us your
vengeance. We abhor you; we despise your
oilers, as we contemn everything that comes,
from you, and we would likewise despise the
bnyainaus who have affixed their names to this
paper, if we did not know that thai r signatures
have been procured by violence and deception
And no doubt the Count gives them complete
lihertv, without exacting the slightest condi
tions !
The heavy exactions, the vandalism which
the Spaniards employ in ruining tho country;
the humiliations which these mandarins have
caused the Cubans to undergo, caused us to take
up arms in order that we might conquer rights
that had been constantly denied us, and, with
them, holy liberty. The savage proclamation
of Valmaseda. and the gloomy results which
have fallowed it, should have caused to fall
from your lips these words: "We must save
the country or perish in tho attempt."
The Reported I'lirciniNC of Hie Islitml.
Way-hiti'iUm (Avi.'iS) On: of the Huston Punt.
On Inquiry in the proper quarter I learn that
the rumor printed in tlio cable despatches of the
Associated Press this morning regarding the
purchase of Cuba is untrue. Negotiations have
been opened with that object in view, but have
not progressed further than mutual explanations.
It is therefore not improbable that the despatch
is merely premature, but the olliecrs of tho
Spanish Legation and, in fact, all the prominent
members of the diplomatic corps express the
opinion that Spain will resort to her proverbial
delay in the matter, and llually reject the pro
position. l)e Itodas.
The New York Sun's .correspondent writes
from Havana on the 18th inst.:
Just as I am about to close this, I am informed
that Colonel .ulueta, of the volunteers, this
morning announced that Captain-General Be
Kodas eent his resignation to Spain by the last
mail, predicated upon the refusal to reinforce
the fipanish army in Cuba, aud withdrawing his
promise to give Dc Rodas ten thousand more
men. Tho volunteers are jubilant over the pros
pect of placing some of their officers at the head
of military allairs. You may be prepared to
learn, at an early date, one of two things that
cither the volunteers will have their way by
having a commander of their own selection, or
they will pronounce against Spain aud act ac
cordingly. THE INDIANS.
Vincent Colyer'a Latest.
The following despatch has been received
from Mr. Vincent Colyer, one of the Special In
dian Commissioners, now en route to Alaska:
San FttANCisi'O, Aug. 21. If Governor Mitch
ell's unwise proclamation declaring the Mavajoes
outlaws should be enforced, it will probably
break up the Agency and School at Fort Defi
ance, as there are no United States troops nearer
than Fort Wingate, forty-five miles diotaut. Tho
war with the Hulipas-Apaehes was commenced
bv a white man named Muller, who killed
"Wambayuba," their chief, in 1800. Thcv were
at peace before this. The war with the Apache
Mojaves w as reopened in 1808 by some teamsters
under Cucnworth, a freighter, who killed
dozen or more of the head chiefs at Lupuz, whore
they were invited to sign a treaty of peace. I
leave for Sitka by the steamer Newbern on
Monday. Vincent Colyer.
