Tills is a proof that our government invites our enemies to the exercise of a proper Conduct and the ' carrying on of a war upon civilized principles. And for this reason I promptly gave up these political prisoners who had fallen into mv: power. To resume, and reserv .* • ing the right to adopt whatever conduct in the other States of the island may -y . be practiced by the Spanish chiefs therein, I inwt-e'. your Excellency to let me know what , are theruies you propose to adox>t, in this re gard, in the State of Oamnguay.

An officer who was present, at tlie Hong Branch banquet when Blair insulted the com 'panv writes to tlie Tribtuu:: Vtfi’iv■: 111 tlie World of this morning is yet another explanatory letter from Mr. E. IJ.1 J . Blair in relation to his well-laid attempt to be, again brought into notice. If I remember aright Mi-. Blair lias already become somewhat famous as a w-riter - of-explanatory letters. In this case; however, he makes a sad mistake in not allowing the most charitable view to b\, taken of liis conduct on the Bth inst. Among his other I infirmities Mr. Blair is somewhat forgetful. The record of his speech is in_ my possession as Secretary of the Society, and I wish to call his attention to it. He says: “I will.- : speak for a people who were once our enemies, against whom we contended, and whom we aspersed as Rebels.” R’ow, Mr. Blair 1h not ignorant of the use or meaning of the English language. ■ “ Asperse as Rebels.” Is it an aspersion to w. call a person hv liis right name? There were Rebels, bitter, cruel and vindictive, and tlie soldiers of this country are not to he insulted bv being told that they are “ aspersing” them ' it’thevsay so: This delicacy is the delicacy of a sensitive political! who hopes for their suf frage and fears their enmity. The eulogy of W Bee and “Stonewall”. Jackson following in . such close connection and in such an unhappy -1- comparison, could not be misconstrued by the • most stupid person. Mr. Blair in his fiehrt ,no doubt, iegretsdiis blunder, which, in this case, it was worse than a crime. , ’ The “apprehension that these army reunions -were being used as -Radical stalldug-liorses” canjie. easily allayed, if Ms Hethean torgetful ness will -pot.-.prevent Bis remembering that tlie Constitution of tlie Society expressly pre -1 eludes tin-discussion of politics, and its rigid enforcement in his'particular case by Admiral Earragm sliould have quieted him forever on this iioint. There is no man connected with ' the Society who ever held a political office, who wants a political office, or who through • fear that jie can't get one. is afraid of calling a Rebel by Bis riglit name. Keither will they allow politicians,.Democratic or Republicnn, -r to call'them to account for “aspersing Re \\ bels.?' especially if - the .remark is illustrated by, CbinparingXee and “Stonewall” Jackson ' \vith Eavragut and Sheridan, wlio were also our guests and were then sitting with us at our own table. Mr. Blair should recall his classical reading and Sremember Philip, the King of Macedon, who in liis most desperate, condition was sagacious enough to be aware of Ills two-fold character, and allowed an ap peal from one to the other. Tlie charity of the Society of the Army and Mavy of the Gulf is with Mr. Blair, but the Society cannot he held accountable if its hospitality was too gen erousiv appreciated hy its guest.

The man ' dressed .in light cap, dark coat and light pants, came running from the creek, and lie.': passed ine and ran down Girard avenue; the police man' then came upland we searched for the Gentian' at the creek;, the noise I heard was like that of a man choking; I could not Say that anyone oftheprisoiiers was tho mau Isaw runniiig; about five minutes after the man had got into the creek, Peter Engle, Martin and three others, came there and • said they heard a noise and came to see what' Was the matter; I am confident the deceased was the same man I saw on the step. Policeman John M.Glazier testified—A few minutes after 1 o’clock on Sunday morning I saw a crowd of young men passing Girard avenue and Ash streets; there were nine or ten men passing whileiwas standing there; I saw one mail come aloiSgtlie foundry wall; as he passed me he held-his head down and went to a lot above Wood street, and changed his cap with another; lie had alight cap, dark coat and light pants; Sneezeman, one ot the prisoners,is .the man who got the cap from tho man whose dress 1 have just described; I said to Sneeze man, “This is queer work,” and I proceeded ■ down along the foundry wall; when I had got part of the way down 1 heard hallooing that there was a'man under the bridge; 1 came hack, and one of tlib crowd named Donnelly said there Ib'- a man overboard; .1 looked for tlie man, hut could not see any one: at daylight I went down again and picked up :i handkerchief and snub-box; Messrs.

Martin Fredericks, one . of the prisoners, testified—l saw this German first after half past 12 o’clock, under the lam]) post, onGirard avenue, between Cherry and Vienna streets; saw hint and Morris Flagor, one of theprison ors, in company; they came across the avenue, and amused the crowd by talking Gennan; he had on light pants, light vest, und dark cap; after amusing the‘crowd,- which: consisted of l)an Denner, Janies Nevlin, Clias. Le Coumu, v-I’eter Engle and Nicholas Painter, the Ger man started across the street alone, and I saw no more of him; Nevlin says: “T am going down home;” he started,' and ’stopped on the other corner, and says: “Let’s go up and see what those fellows are doing under the lamp-post;” we started across, and all went up to Ash street,and there met Frank Donnelly, Samuel Sneezeman and James Mc- Cann: we stopped there awhile, and saw ’Finger put a white cap on his head; he started toward the run, and Xewlin caught him and ■told hint to stop; Flager went away and was absent between eight, and fifteen min utes; the policeman came while he was gone; Flager came up by the policeman, and went into tho 'crowd again, hut with an other’s cap on; X then went home; Flager had a coat on then,for lie changed afterwards with Dennin; Flager said to us, “Let’s go up there again,” meaning to the foundry; Flage&p idled out a snuff box, which looks like the one found when Denner was with us, and gave me a pinch of snuff'. Public Drinking Fountains.— There lias been erected by the Philadelphia Fouutain So ciety,'and noAV in full operation, free granite fountains—one on Walnut street; two in In dependence Square, on Chestnut street; one in Arch street, between Front and Delaware avenue, and one in Dock street, below Wal nut.

The great advan tage derived by the, imhlicfromthe.se foun tains is slioAvn by.a count, made at the Walnut street fountain (in Saturday last, Avhen 1,305 persons and 321 horses drank between seven o’clock iii the morning and seven o’clock in the evening. Taking tills as the aA-erage, the five fountains hoav in use. would Avater 0,825 persons and 1,005 horses in twelve hours, a blessing heretofore unknown in Philadelphia, and one for Avliieli all classes of our citizens ought to feel grateful. Dr. \V. C. Sav.hiu, President of the Society, in a' communication, says: “We are appropriating the money contri buted to this object to the b.!st, advantage; but it should he recollected that our city covers a iarge area, and requires a heavy expenditure to satisfy the demands that are daily pressing upon us. We, therefore, mnnot. anneal too strongly to the liberality of all our citizens to hill us in this noble Avork, and avo promise them that the. fountains Avill be multiplied in pro portion to. the means entrusted to our care. If tlie religious anil other the mar kets, the public institutions and the advocates of temperance Avould aid us in this great charity, Ave would put a large number of foun tains in hand - this coming winter, and have them ready for service in tho spring: and A\ - e -hope this subject. Avill eoimneiid itself to the favorable consideration of the benevolent and pliilantlu'opie.” • Fire in A Church.— This morning, about half past 11 o’clock, a fire broke out in tlie Third Beformeil Church, located at the north east corner of Tenth and Filbert streets. The flumes first appeared in the organ, in tlie gal lery at the Avust end of the church building,and burned rapidly through to the roof. The fire then Avorked its way between tlie ceiling and roof,through the entire length of the structure, and burned stubbornly for nearly an hour, before it could he subdued by the firemen. The organ was completely destroyed, and OAving to the difficulty m getting at the tire,, tlie building Avas flooded Avith Avater. A por tion of the ceiling fell in. Tlie organ cost S-4,000. It was insured for §1,500 in the Ame ricnii Insurance Company. -Tlie church edifice isbailly damaged through out. It will probably require an expenditure of §5,000 or §B,OOO to put it in good condition again. Tho.l6ss.is fully covered by insurance in the American. The origin of the fire is mysterious. The sexton says that tho building was entirely locked up and tlie keys Avere In his possession, and there lias been no tire upon the premises for several months. The fact that the Hames first appeared In the organ increases the mys tery. Fire Marshal Blackburn Avill fully in vestigate the matter. • Obituary. —Charles M.
