The reports of its progress aresery Contra-, dictory. The ports treititin pOesession of the Spanish authorities, and hence all thi official intelligence we redeive is necessarily eillored in the - interest of the latter. Intelligence from the inte rior of the island, where the revolu tionary movement - possesses- - most strength, represegyfit to be widening and strengthening. That the authori ties have not. been able to make head way in the suppression of _the Rebel lion, is evident from the fact that not withstanding a large number of troops have been-sent from Spain to assist the local government, there is still mand for more. it is said that a ana bar of volunteers and adventurers from the United States have managed to reach the island and are fighting in the revolutionary army. The object of the Rebellion is to separate the island from Spanish dominion, and establish a Re publican Government,wit.haprobabili ty of annexation to-the United states. The Revolutionary Junto have pub lished a decree abolishing Slavery iu the island, and have sent an envoy to Washington to ask for recognition as belligerents—in other words, that the United States apply to Cuba the same principle which Spain and European Governments applied to us during the Slaveholders' Rebellion. The Cuban envoy represents that over 40,000 men are under arms against the Spanish au thorities ; that more would be if they had the requisite arms; thaLtbe Rebel lion sooner or later must be a success, and that all that, is needed to ensure an early realization of the hopes of the "patriots" Is the moral aid which a recognition of their status as belliger ents would give them. It is intimated that Gen. Grant is inclined to respond favorably, and it is not improbable that Congress, before it adjourns, will invest the President with discretionary au thority in the„ premises. -Once free 1 from Spain, Cuba will be found knock lug for admission into tbe, Federal Union. Secretary Seward:some years ago offered two hundred millions of dollars for "the gem of the Antilles," as Cuba has been called. It looks now very much as if we were going to get it for nothing. THE DEMOCRAILTR AND THE NEGRO The New York Herald gives the De mocracy some good advice in regard to their future treatment of the negro question, and .concludes with the fol lowing remarks, which we copy for the benefit of our numerous Democratic readers ; • "Why, then, will. the petnociats per sist iu this folly of fighting the nigger, when they have been almost . destroyed in their successive disasters on the nigger question since 1864? But for the stupidity of their Copperhead and rebel leaders of the Tatnu3any conven tiou, they might have run even Gener al Grant a tight race, and they might have secured a handsome majority in the present Hbuse of Representatives. But instead of recognizing the "fixed facts" before them, the stupid managers of the party proclaimed the reconstruc tion adts of Congress 'unconstitutional, "evolutionary and void,' and so they were swamped again in '6B, as they had been under Johnson on the same issue in '66. So they are out in the cold, waiting far some providential smash up of the Republican party, and ap parently incapable of heel anything to fight against but the almighty nig ger. lie is to them what a bit of red flannel is to an entagsti bull or a turkey cock—au intolerable insult, to be re sented, reckless Di Consequences." CLEAN OUT THE ?ABE-MS.—A Radi cal lady, who is employed in the Treasury Department at Washington, has written a letter to the independent, in which she makes very serious com plaints in regard to the morals of many of the female clerks. She Concludes with this indignant appeal : " IVe o ught _ not to 46 insulted by hav ing the paraniatiPh; and ;111) . 4,trc,k8C9 of member's of Congress forced upon us, and be obliged to tolerate their society day by day." Tnat there are many such creatures occupying the position and receiving the salaries of clerks without doing any work is well known in Washing ton. Itiuiicat melphers Of Congress have , converted the departments into harems, and their debauched and pet ted beauties are supported at the ex pense of the taxpayers of the country. To such a condition has the party of great Jinn's.' ideas brought us. The above preeiph9 t,norclati we find going the rounds of thy Coilivrhead press. The queer part, of the story is that the state of things of which Mrs. A3IES, the Independent correspondent, complains, was brought abput under the Johnson administration, in the Treasury and Post-office Departments, Where the "Radicals" were powerless and Johnsonlzed Democrats had full swing. Secretary BOUTWELL and Postmaster General CRESSWE!..L, among other reforms, are preparing to break up these "harems," one of the legacies of A. J's administration, and a type of the debauchery that balk run riot in high places during the 1a two years. While all this "is well known in Washington," the Copperhead Press has the effrontery to obaage the exist ence of these "harems" on the Repub lican party 1 It Is the old cry of "stop thief," and doubtless Democrats will be found green enough to believe it.— The next remarkable development the country may look for in the same line, will be the discovery tit the entire crew of swindlers and felons, who have been boldly robbing the Govern ment ever ulnae the Democracy stole Andy Johnson--and whom A.

Stevens might have been con sidered, when brought into the Senate Chamber on men's shoulders to take his place among the managers in the memora ble days of the impeachment trial, the beat illustration up to that time presented of the triumph of intellectual will over a shatter ed and prostrate bodily organism, but Brownlow's appearance shows even greater indications of physical wreck and ruin, and yet the latter lacks nothing of the same un conquerable mental fire and energy that marked to his latest motn#ts the character of the Great Commoner. When taking" the oath Brownlow lay back in his chair, his bead bent down, his face shriveled, ghastly and of unearthly hue, his hands, clasped in bony, vice-like grasp, and his whole appearance indicative of great phys ical depression. As Mr. Colfax read the oath the poor old Parson raised his feeble arm, which shook with palsy and dropped every Montent to his side. Assistant Ser geant-at-Arms Basset went over and sus tained his arm through the remainder of the ceremony, though the old man made two or three desperate efforts by himself to sustain the right arm by propping it with his left baud. Atter he had taken the oath the Parson stretched forth his hand for a glass of water, which shook wildly before itreached his lips. The ordeal, slight as it seemed, had completely exhaulted him. TUE Tatar. BY BLOOD.—OUt in Indiana where a fanner and his wife ware recently brutally mmtbred ; the inhabitants with old time supeistitlon resorted to the "trial by blood" to detect the murderer. The corpses of the murdered couple bad been ordered to be disinterred that j,he physicians might once more examine the Injuries which had resulted in their death.. This post niortent examination was to take place in the chat ch at Lebanon, where the two corpses were laid on a large table. Before the physicians had had time to ester upon their task, a large concourse of people, comprising all the persons living in the vicinity of the Todd farce, Mkt' the church; eight old Men, who sirere'- to set as Judgwa op this oc casiun, seated themselves at the table, and then the ordeal commenced. The crowd, numbering upwards of two hundred per suns, moved slowly and amidst profound silence past the table; every one, in pass ing, laid his hand on the two cold and still corpses, tt being believed that, if the un known murderer should tottoh the fen - tains of his victims, their wounds would com mence bleeding again, No such thing took_ place, and when till of the Lebanonites had lard their hands on the corpses, they knew no more than they did before as to who assassinated the Todd% SPAS-V.—The new constitution of Spain has been reported by the committee ap pointed by the Cortes.

A Won4N Mua t osaso BY ANOTHEIL—A singular murder was committed on the E,yerett plantation near Fort Valley, Gea., three miles from that place, Sunday night. It seems that during the day there" bad been a small difficulty between a negro woman and a little boy. The boy had thrown a rock into a pool of water, which splashed the water upon the dress of the woman, where upon she slapped his check. This enraged the boy's mother, who, after dark, armed herself with a large pocket-knife and sou g ht the woman who smack her child. She soon found her, and fell upon her with the ferocity of a tigress. Using the knife freely, she stabbed her 13IZ or seven times, produc ing instant death.

He was an unmarried man and lived in the building. His watch and a small amount of money were found on the floor. The cords around the hands and tact were not sufficiently tight to prevent him Trom firing the pistol, which was found be side him with one barrel discharged. He had a scarf tied around his neck and mouth, but not tight. Ten contribution boxes were found near "the body, having been appar ently torn off in a struggle. Smith bad fancy dresses, which he hired out in the af ternoon. He left the hall to get a five dol lar note changed, when be said he had hired a couple of dresses. The pistol found discharged did not belong to Smith, his own pistol (loaded) being in the same room. Txs Tha CENSUS. —The feasibility and advantage of taking the next census in one day throughout the tithed States, was sug gested some time since. A few days ago the aUeption of Congress was called to the matter by a memorial presented in the House of Representatives, signed by forty three of the principle officers of the life in surance companies of the United States.— Hitherto months have been consumed in taking the census, and when finished after so treat delay and published, the correct ness of much of it was still questionable.— The proposition now is to finish the Job in a single day, and as a it/uteri! aid, in fact a necessity to the accomplishment of the task within that time, and as a means of obtaining greater accuracy, it is suggested in the memorial that blank schedules be furnished to house holders and others prior to the time fixe l l upon, to be; by them care fully filled up. This system it is said has been successfully practised in Europe, and if so, we can imagine no reason why it can not be acted upon in this country with equal success and satisfaction. EL - BOMAN telegrams render certain the approaching proclamation of the Duke of 31outpensier as King of Spain. This Prince is the fifth son of Louis Philippe,for merly King of the French. He was bout at Neuilly, near Paris, in 1821. His cunning hither married him in 1816 to the Spanish Princess Louisa, the Eisler of Queen Isabella IL, and at the same time brought about the Queen's marrage to her irubeeil cousin Francis of Assisi. Louis Philipe supposed that this would be a childless marriage, and that the children of the Duke of Moutpen• sier would accordingly inherit the Spanizb thrown. His calculation has proyed errone ous in every way. He himself died in exile, and for more than twenty years none of his family have seen their native coun try. Isabella 11. has a number of children' and yet the old King's principal end will be essentially gained when Montpensler him self puts on the crown of Spain, with a reasonable chance, as things go, of untismit ting it to his posterity.

The Seminole, Juniata and Galena were ordered, on Saturday last, to be sent to him ; and the Tuscarora, to guns, and the Zeareaze, 7 guns, from the South Pacific Squadron, are also ordered to Join his fleet, DEATR FROM HYDROYEIOBIA.. -- John D. Sargent died of hydrophobia, in Frankfort, Kentucky, on Sunday night, afleiduffering horribly Tor twenty-four ho About three months ago he received a bite from a small dog in his meat store. The wound healed rapidly, and be gave the subject no further thought, until he was seised last Saturday with spasmodic convulsions when he tried to quench his thirst. He ma at tended by all the leading physicians of the place, and was rational to the last, attempt ing to injure no one, and refraMlng from caressing his family lest the disease be com municated to them.

Mae, Ghssrr.—The Washington corres pondent of western journal has this say of Mrs. General Grant : Few Women every bore the perilous teat of sudden lame and fortune with a more hearty happiness or more unassuming grace.

I wnz present a{ the first and the lust nv its Cabinet ineetins. The first wuz a eggaileratin scene—the last the m-st mournful I ever witnist. At the first we started out with high hopes—Presh in our °MIAs, whit a Treasury to draw: on with seemed to us to bey no bottom, and with rich men ez Raymond, Weed, et al., to give us character—and the voices uv the thou sands uv patriots wich wautid effis biddin us God speed—at the last there wuz left on ly those who lied became so flied that they couldn't get away, and every one uv em cot:lslas that the next day_at 12 M. they wuz forever lost. The harlot commencin her career with youth, beauty, strength and store clothes, is one thing—the jam.° bein holler eyed, sunken cheeks, dirty and (hobbled, turned out to die on a dung-hill, aint so Peasant to look at. The 'nattier wuz held in the same old room, in wich I hey seen more weepin than ever fell to the lot of one man. fThe ad ministrashtin uv A. Johninii will be known in busby ez the moist administrasheu.) It wuz in this room that we decided to veto the Freedman's Buro and Civil Rites Bills, and all the other acts uv the 39th and 40th Congresses—it wuz in this room that we re ceived the news of the eleckshens nv 1866, '67, and '6B ; it wuz in this room that the Philadelphia Convenshen wuz determined upon, and the tetchin march uv Couch and Orr, arm in-arm, up the aisle wuz arrang ed, the President writin at the same time his little speech in wich he menshuned the fact that ez he read the account thereof he couldn't restrane his emoshun, but busted into a flood uv Wets ; it wuz in this room that the spontaneous triboots uv respeck toward his Eggslcecy at various times and places wuz arranged, and the details thereof fixed ; in short, it wuz in this room that all the acts wich gild the memry uv the late administrushen wuz decided upon and even choally wept over. Ez. I entered it—for the last time prolus- bly—l bust into leers on the threshold and jined the other weepers who bed bin distil lin briny greet' for some hours. Indeed so long lied they bin weepin that one friend uv the President, who lied a Kentucky coun tenance, bowled piteously for sonic liquid to replace that with he had lost. A bottle wuz han.led him and he went no more. I U fed it to strengthen me agin the waste that I knowd must ensoo. Ingratitoocl is not my failure. Till A. Johnson gits hack to eyes shed not be d;•y. The President wuz terribly calm and com posed. "Weep my friends : sed he, "weep. I cant blame yoo, FOE TOO ABB ABOUT TO RE DEPRIVED or ME! But in this trying hour I will be calm. I her swung around the en tire circle or oilishel honor. I her bin—" At this pint has voice trer,;bled at:l4 his eyes was 5111100 SW. "But no'. I will 'be myself.

"I must finish my work. Hand me them blank pardons." He wrote with a firm hand, a fillin uv em out, with only took a second, ez he hes blanks printed for all the various offences men kin Itu guilty uv. "Now then, my dooties is accomplished, and I cbeeifly rogue the power with I wood be, laid down long ago but for the sake uv my bleediu country. I wood hey saved my bleedin country. I wood hey saved my bleedin land, but —. EnufE Admit our friends." Mayor Munro uv Noo Orteens, Mrs. Cobb, a score or moresov Contedrit officers and a flood uv unforchenet men who bed bin accoosed uv bunperin with an uncon stooshnel currency, and a hundred, more or less, uv Pedral offisholders,filed in and shook the President corjelly by the hand, droppin a silent tho elokent teer ez they passed.— There wuz, In addishen to these, several hundred poor wretches who lied bin layin about Washington for months waitin for posishon, but who hedn't got em. They lied no money to get home With, aiiia they insisted that the President must and shood furnish em means. One uv era demanded uv Randall $5OO, but that great man finally got rid uv him by loanin him a clean shirt and a box uv paper collars. The roan wuz dopiest though still hope ful "This," sed he, wavin the shirt in air, "this is all I hey to start on agin—when embarkt Into Johnsonispi my friends fell off. In remorse I took to Inciter and step by step went down till I became the loathsome ob jick yoo behold. But I shel now reform and try to be somebody. Disguised in this shirt I may inspire confidence and find a helpin hand. But dont none uv yoo speek to me on the street." Ez I saw him the next evenin in a state uv hilarity hangin to a lamp post repeatin porshens tri the late President's farewell ad dress to passers by, without any clean shirt on, I judged remorse hed overcome him agin and that the clean shirt lied bin pawned.— Poor fellow Then come the most saddest scene uv all. The President hid to bid adoo to hie cabi net. "My tried and trtstid friends," he corn menced, when Randall broke in with the onfeelin remark that he'd better say "trust ed friends" without the "tried." ' "My liege, 'your tried friends' wuz in that gang uv counterfeiters with jest left the rtresence. They waz not only tried but con victed." Beirt3tary Seward wuz vizably affected.— That afternoon he hed heerd uv an Island for sale, the principal volcano on wick hed mostly stopped gushin, and he wept to chink he hcdnt time to complete Impels thens for it. It win offered for $40,000,000, and he eceeldellki the price utere baga telle. Sekretary Welles wuz the only cheerful one in the party. He hed no idea that he wnz to atop bein Sekretary nv the Navy.— He expectid to go along ez tho uothht hed. happened. Seviarci and Randall hed •bin trying for an hour to make him oompaehmad the altooashen—that ther wuz to be a change —but to no purpose. He (=dent git it thro him. I undertook to impress it onto his intelleek, but: my efforts wuz iotile T- Hug& to his biz= a model up a !de canal boat .which he bed determined to re model into a resew. , cutter, he kept on say in, "Why—why shood I go out?

I agreed with Linkin and with Johnson, and I dial agree with Grant, doubtless.

Randall and Johnson arranged to have Welles tab sent from Washington for the week follow in the inaugurashen, knowin that other wise he'd hey to be carried oat uv the De partment by main force. They appinted a committee nv Connecticut men to keep him busy till after his successor wuz in stalled, and shakin hands all around; each sheddin a manly tear, the last Cabinet meetin uv A. Johnson's administrasben passed into history. Uv the inaugurashen uv Grant the next day, I he'v not the heart to write. Suffice it to say that niggers participated in it ! Nig gers wuz on the sidewalks, not ez in the olden time, humble and meek, but in chairs, wattle to see the procession pass, amoosing theirselves the while and reedit) noosepapers. Deekin Program, who wuz with me, call ed my attensheu to this, askin of it' wuz possible for a Kentuckian whose eyes be held rich a site to hey any further faith in republikin instooshens? The old saint shuddered visibly es a nigger in a dress coat, plUg-hat, and shiny boots passed us, nearly knocklu us into the gutter in their haste, his wife onto his arm, dressed in the heightli uv fashion, with a panyer. Ite smiled Itiebly and in a bewildered way, but sed notuiu. 'I he site uv a nigger regiment inarchin lu the preceshun finished the . Deekin. He grew so faint that I lied to take him to his lodgins. He left the same evenin for the Cornerir. The members uv the late Administrashen hey not decided wet to do. Browning will probably go into a claim agency in Nuo York. Randall remarkt that. of Sammy Cos and Jack Rogers cood succeed in Noo York, he thot he coml. Mrs. Cobb will go to Noo York and probably the pardon brokers, lobbyists, and sich will do like wise. A dozen or two Faro banks packed up tomite, and others will speedily follow Cm. In cousekence uv this breakin up in the Administrashen and Its supporters, the polcece fbrcz uv Washington hez bin al ready lessened. I shel accompany the late President to Tennessee and take my leave uv him then. He will w _int some faithful friends to con sole him on that dreary passage, and who so fit for the oflls ez the undersined ? I shel see him entombed In Greenville, and then sadly turn my steps to Kentucky and await the ishoo uv evence. I shel uv course be turned out uv offs, and wat will follow I know not. A. .1. may conclood to stump Tennessee for the governorship, ez Brown low hez the paralysis; If so, I bile' go to his rescue. I can't now go to Noo York, for that city will be overrun. With Brown ing, Randall, and the thousands who go out uv offia with em, in that city, what chance wood there be for me ? Prracmpum V. /WHY, P. 31., (With is Postmaster.).4 P. B.—The press Aid) is now subsidized is animadvertia upon ex-President John son for not appearia at the inaugarashen. His Eggalency preferred to avoid the display.— "Let Grant startlair," he nobly sed ; "I will mortify him by giving the throng with Les flocked here to pay triboota uv respect to me on an opportunity to hurrah for me ez the procession passes. I her swung around the entire circle of offishel honor and kin afford to be magnanimous. Let him hey the entire credit or war- enthoosi asm is manifested." Cood anything be more noble? P. V. N. HORRIBLE Te&eznv—A TRIPLR MURDER A.RD SUICIDR.--A horrible murder was COM milted in Philadelphia on Monday wider Peculiar eiacuoratturces, tarty in the morning sicken threw himself into the Del aware river and was drowned. Subsequent ly a handkerchief was found in the water bearing the name of Blackstone. On Tues day afternoon the body was recovered and found to be Blackstone, of the firm of FULMAR it Blackstone, picture frame mak ers, at 912 Market street. The body wad sent to his house in the extreme northwest ern part of the city. On arriving there the parties found another party of police in possession, and that Hlackstone's wife and two small, children were dead and chop ped to pieces with an axe. It appears that previous to committing the murder, Black stone wrote a letter to his wife's father in Connecticut saying that he had killed his wife and children, and would kill himself. The parents in connoctleut on Tuesday tel egraphed to the police authorities here,who went to the house and found the dead bod ies, as before rotated, and were Investigat ing the case when the dead body of the father was brought in. On- Blackstone's body was found a paper stating that he bad been robbed and was a ruined man, and giving this as a reason for the deed. His wife appears to have been killed while lighdrig a fire in the stove on Monday morning, as the neighbors heard a noise at the time, The children were killed in bed up stairs, and carried down and laid at the feet of their mother. Blackstone was probable insane. A Gnu Braxxo TO DEATH. —The citizens of our town were considerably alarmed on Wednesday last, by hearing of a ire that had occurred that ruerning between two and three o'clock at the residence of Mr William Dean, a farmer, in Juniata town ship, a few miles south of town. It was as certained that the fire originated from smoking meat in the fire• place in one end of the house, and soon communicated to the dwelling, in which the inmates, con sisting of ittr. aPd Atra. Dean, and their twn daughters, gate and Martha, were sound asleep. The fire made a rapid pro gress, and with difficulty Mr. Dean and his ' wife, who slept belnoeicaped, while Kate and Martha, who slept up stairs, run through the flames ;CI the dour—liate escaping in her night clothes, and being burned *kilt the face, shoulders and hands in the at tempt, while Martha succeeded but in get ting to the door, when, it is supposed, she was stifled with smoke and fell, and was consumed in the flames. Site Was the youngest of the family, aged about seven teen years. Her sad death has stricken her parents and relatives with great sorrow, and our citizens deeply sympathize with them. Mr. Dean lost everything, and he and his family are now sta7ing with Mr, thirrigas Speck, the nearest nelsdtbor, The injuries which Sate received, though painful in the extreme, will not be Dual, but It is thought she will lose the use of her hands. —Hunt ingdon Globe.
