Alter reciting all the circumstances of Ilabcock's mission to Han Domingo, and all the facts concerning I latch, the committee bring them all to the knowledge of Bab cock, show that he refused to have any- thing to do with an American citizen so held in prison, and declined to speak a %VIM/ for persons so outraged, and went even so far as to omit all inquiry concern ing the reasons for which that citizen was held captive, while a few minutes' investi gation would have ~IlVinced him that the only thing which he considered proof of that captive's guilt did not eXist on the recent, and that the trial, sentence and con tinued incarceration after pardon were bar barous outrages from beginning to end.

BABCOCK, 'MANUEL MARIA GAUTIER." As regards the imprisonment of the American citizen Hatch, the evidence is conclusive that he was confined bemuse of his opposition to the treaty. The Do minican Secretary writes to Consul Perry, February 19, 1870, that Hatch is kept im prisoned because of his irreconcilable en mity and his persistent determination to disturb the public mind against annexation. Admiral Poor had an in terview with Baez, March 12, 1870, and writes to the Navy Department that the latter told him that Hatch was imprisoned there because of his influence among the people and the newspapers of the United States against annexation. The report and evidence arc creating a positive sensation among Congressmen and other officials. The Senate, in executive session last week, agreed to make the San Domingo treaty the special order for to-morrow, to be continued until disposed of. The oppo nents of the treaty are very sanguine of its defeat. They say that in a full Senate they are certain of 31 or 32 votes against it,whieli is six or seven more than the necessary ii um her. —Cur. Balt°. Situ.

Rcsotectl, That the people of the United States cannot hear with indifference the re ports of the barbarous outrages which reach them constantly from the neighboring is land of Cuba; that they protest against the repetition of such acts, whether by Spanish government or by the insurgents socking independence; that they denounce with indignation the shooting of captives taken With arms in their hands as a violation 01 the first principles of civilization, and con trary to the precedent happily established on the North American continent, and in the name of humanity they solemnly insist that these things shall cease. nem,l,ll, 'that the people of t h e united Stales are pained to hear that the pretension of property ill Mall is still upheld in the island colonies of Spain lying in American waters; that human beings' endowed by nature with the right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, are held Os slaves, that instead of terminating, this pretension at once the Spanish government propose to protect it for an inffelinite period by an int :jessible system of gradualism ; that such a system is justly offensive to all who love republican 'itkaniiiions, and especially to the people of the'Cnited States, who now. inn tine name of justice, and for the Sake of good neighborhood, ask that slavery shall cease at once. liesoired, That the United States, being oned colonies, achieved their independence us a natimi by successful resistance to tine European power claiming to govern them, and their example was followed afterward by the Spanish colonies on the Anaerican continent, all of which haye ash inde pendence likewise, That already the same aspiration for independence begins to stir in the neighboring colonies of Great Brit ain; that these instances in harmony with. the spirit of the age teach, that the day of the European colonies in this hemisphere has passed ; that impressed by this convic tion the people of the United States regret to witness the extraordinary efforts of the Spanish government by violence and blood to maintain the unnatural jurisdiction in Cuba, forbidden by the great law 14' pro gress, and hostile to tile best interests of both parties. Resuleed, That the people of the United States declare their sympathy with their fellow Americans in Cuba, struggling her independence, and at the same time their sympathy With the people of Spain in their present efforts for liberal institution in their own ancient land, and they call on the people ' as their first stage in reform at 1101110, /3,11,1 for the sake of peace, to recog nise at once the right of Cllbans to govern themselves; that they make this appeal with sincere good Will to the people or Spain, and with assurance that the justice they do to others will rebound to their own happiness, welfare and renown.

Munch, in McClure township, Allegheny county, was burned to the ground, and his sons Charles Munch, aged four years, and William Kerr, his adopted son, the child of his sister, lost their lives. About half past eight o'clock the mother took them to their room, on the second floor of the build ing, which was a two story hewed log house. After having placed them in bed and seeing her daughter, aged seven years in bed in the same room, she went down stairs and commenced ironing. In about twenty minutes she heard her daughter screaming, "Mother, for God's sake—fix God's sake, mother, come here!" Almost immediately the flames burst forth from the windows of the house, and the screams of Mrs. Munch called her hus band, who was at work in the lower part of the lot, to the rescue, and he rushed in frantically, trying to save the two children up stairs. In doing this he wasvery badly burned, both his hands being disabled, his whiskers and eyebrows being burned off, and his nose badly burned. The little girl who first gave the alarm escaped in her night dress, with but slight injuries. From all that can be gleaned, the cause or the tire was from ignition front soot through a stove pipe connecting with their room, which led from the general flue. At ten o'clock yesterday a portion of the charred remains were recovered from the burning building and an inquest held by Justice Robert H. Kerr. The testimony in the case simply sub stantiates the facts as recited above, and the verdict was "'Mg the deceased chil dren calve to their death from accidental burning." The charred remains of the children were interred in Uniondale Cemetry, followed to their last resting place by a large con course of friends and. neighbors.

THE HEATED TETOL—Saturday and Sun day were the hottest days we have had this summer, the mercury running away up into thonineties, and playing thedeuee with almost everybody except the hay-makers. Yesterday afternoon while the mercury stood at blood-heat we had fair prospects of a rain, and our parched and trolling deni zens awaited it with sweat and smiles, but it went around to the east of the city, scarcely a drop falling within the corporate limits. We are informed that the rain fell moderately at Litiz and Oregon, and that in the neighborhood of Landis Valley a hurricane sot in, in which roofs wile blown oil, fences and crops prostrated, :ltd large trees uprooted. Accompanied by a deluge of rain, it passed over Eden with great fury, in some places blocking up the roads with largo fallen trees. At Millpiirt there was a very heavy fall of rain and a hurricane of wind that prostrated fences and everything else before it. Thence to Lampeter Square, and on to Strasburg the rain fell in a perfect deluge, and a large number of fences were blown down, and trees uprooted and twisted ME The lightning was very vivid and struck in many places along the track of the storm. A wheat field we are told belonging to Mr. Ilarnish near Strasburg was set on fire by it, but wets ex tinguished without much damage, by per sons in the vicinity, aided by the Leavy fall of rain. A tree in the same neighbor hood was set on lire and entirely consunied by the lightning. Although the crops are considerably injured by the storm we hay, heard of no buildings being struck•or of personal injury to ally one. The excessive heat appears to be general throughout the whole nation. The 111,rhi boasts that New York is the hottest illy in the States, and has been for four days "in a fierier and more glowing heat than any other city in the States, with the ex ception of Savannah, and that is only one degree wanner." And this is nu small boast, as any city ie the C Mon. from East port to ltroWnsVille, and front Key West to San Francisco, has been doing its best to broil. Wo make no account of any place which can express its degrees of heat ill two figures; but among the hundreds we may note 14astport, Maine, with its pal degrees ; and Portland with its 103; and SI. Lonis with its 100; and Cambridge, lowa, With its 100 ' • and Aurora, Illinois, with its 06; and Albany with the same elevated figure, led. When Boston hears of New York s claim to the hot weather 4 ' championship," we shall have stories frurn all her leanest men, to show that the mercury was really highest at "the Hub." And thereupon all the western cities will come in with genu ine " western stories" of the mercury boil ing in the thermometer, and so on— Chieage trying to outdo Cincinnati, Cheyenne to surpass Chicago, and Duluth to beat then, all. All over the country, Saturday and Sunday, seems to have been days of imp, eedented heat; and it is the extent of the heated area that is, perhaps, most remark able. We have not yet heard front Silks, but presume that [l4c:icebergs in that region, even are now in the " melting mood.- To laic YouNo lihmockacy.---In every district of the county there are sonic young Democrats of superior intelligence who might, if they chose, send us frequent com munications giving the leading events of their localities.

It is really the only sentiment that one can cultivate.

FROM CONESTURA CENTRE. --On Friday night, the 17th inst., sonic burglars tried to break into the house of John W. Urban, of Conestoga Centre. After Mr. Urban had left home during the night, to attend mar ket in this city, Sirs. U. beard a slight noise at the door, to which she listened for some time, and then made noise, after which the noise at the door ceased. A panel of the door was nearly cut out. Mr. L rbau is tax col lector for Conestoga township, and had that morning taken a considerable sum of tax money with him to pay into the trea sury. The parties, no doubt, know that he hail considerable money in the house, and also that he attended market, and thought thus to get the money. The bungling man ner in which they went about it proves that they were no professional burglars. tin Friday night last, a horse belonging to David Hess, Sr., who resides near Con estoga Centre, was taken out of the stable and shot dead by some scoundrel. Soinu time agj, a male belonging to John Iluekwa!ter, Jr., in the same 11,21g1111,r1100d w, killed ill the same manner. c. s. Si. ANTHONYS Cornea.--The (tonnes Catholics of this city, finding St. Joseph's Church, entirely too small to accommodate the constantly increasing number of wor shippers, purchased some time ago the lot on the northeast corner of East Orange and Ann streets, on which they are about erect ing a very handsome church, to be known as "St. Anthony's." The building will be of brick, with stone dressing, 141 feet S inches in length, by 61 feet in width, and will be furnished with a steeple 175 feet in height. The body of the church Will con tain pews, arranged in six rows, and separated by one,eentre and two side aisles. The altar which will occupy the rear and of the church, will be very elegantly and elaborately finished, and it is intended bi erect a first-class organ. The building was designed by Mr. Edwin I'. Du rang, architect, and will be an orna ment to the eastern portion of the city that ,isr people may well be proud of. The esti mated gout of the structure is about $:i0,000. Cur icgax Lit' E.—However hot the weath er may seem to those who aro doomed to work enclosed by brick walls in crowded cities, iu the country it is otherwise. The fresh air of the country even during the hottest days possesses Invigorating quali ties; it is sustaining and health giving.— Pure and fragrant it sweeps over the fields, rustles the green leaves of the long tiles of growing torn, and brings a brown tint to lhe pale cheek of the invalid, while with ma,gieal power It restores vigor and strength to the enervated body. Those who suppose that the labor of the farmer in the harvest field is of the most severe character are greatly mistaken. All the advantages of pure air and pure cool water are his, while those who labor in cities are necessarily deprived of both. Hard as the work of the agriculturalist appears, the labor of the city clerk is more exhausting, and the chances of long life and entire freedom from disease are entirely in favor of the tiller of the soil.

Now over eighty years of age, his hair silvered with age, he is yet as active, and his mind as unimpaired as the majority of men thirty years his junior. John Beck is one of the oldest, and most successful instructors of youth now living. For sixty years he was the Principal of the Litiz Academy, a Mo ravian institution of learning, located in Litiz, Lancaster county, and only a few years since he resigned his active charge, to V.lloger hands, to enjoy the balance or his days, free from care and responsibility. As an instructor of the young, Father Beek had few equals, Vlore appeared to be something mugitctic in his manner, which immediately won the confidence and esteem of his pupils. To his boys, as lie called them, he was as a father and they would go to hint in their troubles and difficulties, well knowing they would llnd a friend, and counselor. As a lecturer he was eminently - success ful, and at Sunday School conventions and celebrations, his presence never fails to elicit enthusiasm. His lectures to the stu dents of the Academy were always instruc tive, ind-ed it was one of his favorite methods of imparting instruction, and they left impressions on the minds of the youth that contact with the world eau never efface. We do not know how many of the sons of old Cumberland have been students of Litiz Academy, and there arc some we know, but we feel sure that there is not one who does not cherish the mem ories er old Lille, as sonic of the most plea sant of bygone clays. B Etc.; Cor STY ITEMs.—George Garner, aged about 21 years, was drowned in the Schuylkill near Pigeon Rock, yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock. It appears that the deceased and a younger brother hired batteau to row on the river, and ❑ear Pigeon Rock George jumped into the river for the purpose of taking a bath, when he was seized with the cramp, and before assistance could be rendered was drowned. llis body was recovered about two hours afterwards. The unfortunate young man had been a resident of Connecticut for the past live years, and only returned home a f2s.• days ago. An ;Atolllpt was made to rob Beard dc. Ilagy's tobacco store, fteadii , ate on Sat urday night, or early on Sunu .v morning. A piece of one of the show windows, about inches in circumference, was neatly cut out. It is supposed the burglars were frightened the by cry of tire at the railroad car shop.:, as they only succeeded in getting a couple of small packages of tobacco. There are at the present time in Reading GS7 draught horses, 2.Piri driving horses, 133 mules, and , lUS cows.

FROM MINN F-SQTA.—The Duluth Mimic sotia ii, of June 11, says : " The indefatigable Thomas Arnold, the Superintendent of the Cass Slate Quarries, came to the city on Thursday on a flying visit, for supplies, and left again on Friday morning, for the seat of war. He tells us that the work on the slate quarries is proceeding with all possible de spatch, and the 'thing opens well,' though Mr. A. does not ex presihimself unqualified ly in their favor yet. The first bell ever rung in Carlton county, is a good sized Lancas ter county plantation bell ; and was put up by Mr. Arnold on the 29th of May, Is7o, on the 'Slatery which bell answers to regu late the grub time of the entire busy colo ny at the Dalles. The work on the Dalles bridges, and the railroad work generally in that locality, is proceeding with all pos sible despatch."
