EVENING BULLETIN.
Sntnrdny, April 16, 1870.

Taking for granted that the news ot the
death of (Lopez is true, and that the war in
Paraguay is thus ended, the future of that
country becomes an interesting question. An
American mail Steamer from Rio Janeiro is
nearly due now at New York. It will bring
the particulars of the fall of Lopez, and throw
some light upon the intentions of the victorious
Brazilian government. For the war, which
was commenced six years ago by an alliance of
Brazil, Uruguay and the Argentine Confedera
tion, has long been virtually abandoned by the
two last named States. ' It has been lately a
war of Brazil against Paraguay, or rather of
the Emperor Dom Pedro against the Dictator
Lopez. The people of Brazil have wearied of
the burdens and the losses they have had to
endure, and peace would have been made
long ago if the people and their representatives
had had their own way. But the Emperor
was obstinate, and when one cominandin;
general failed, sent another, the last being his
son-in-law, the Count d’Eu, a grandson of
Louis Philippe,who has won the glory of bring
ing the war to a victorious end. As this Or
leans prince is to he the successor to the
throne—the Emperor having no son—liis mili
tary successes wiil nq doubt make him very ac
ceptable as such to the people of-Brazil.
‘ Paraguay, having been exhausted by a long
war, and having lost her great ’despotic ruler,
Lopez, may be considered as having ceased to
exist as an-independent. State. A sort of pro
visional government was set up in Asuncion
after Lopez was driven away from there ; but
it was a creation of Brazil and is under Bra
zilian protection. It is natural to expect that
Brazil will annex Paraguay, because, in no
other way can she be indemnified for her losses
in the late war. Civilized nations can look
with no repugnance upon such an annexation.
Paraguay, while nominally a republic,
has, from the time . of Dr. Francia,
been under the most completely despotic
government of modern times. Brazil is an
Empire, but her sovereign is a liberal, en
lightened man, and his government is by no
means absolute or intolerant. The extension
of his sway over the adjacent State of Para
guay will be beneficial to Paraguayans as well
as Brazilians. The canse of the late war was
the refusal of Lopez to allow the freet naviga
tion of the river Paraguay to the people of the
adjacent countries. By taking possession of
Paraguay as a conquered province, Brazil will
secure the light of free navigation of this very
important river, and by no other means can it
be effectnaily secured, If Dom Pedro fails to
annex Paraguay to his dominions, it must be
considered a very remarkable instance of for
bearance. Most peopic will also consider it
very unwise.
THE FACTS ABOUT BEDFORD STREET.
As it has been asserted that the condition
of the Bedford street district has been misreprer
seated and the evils existing there greatly ex
aggerated, we offer the following statement of
facts. As it is the result of personal investigation
of the neighborhood it may be relied upon:
..Most, of the streets are in a condition of
tolerable cleanliness; there are occasional ap
pearances of garbage which would provoke
complaint in any other quarter; but the gutters
are free, and there are no great accumulations
of offensive feculant matter. The shovels and
brooms of the .scayensers have evidently been
used in the neighborhood recently; sometimes
with good effect; at others in a slovenly and
careless manner. ’The principal cause of'cotn
plajnt, however, was the dreadful condition of
the courts, cellars, yards and small alleys.
Since the recent agitation in the newspapers
there has been a partial effort at reform.
Whitewash has been applied freely in half-a
dozen places,and two or three of the mo3t otfen
eive cellars have been closed. But a vast deal
remains to be done, and if these sanitary
measures are not continued until the whole
neighborhood is cleansed, the worst results
are to be feared. In Spafford, Darcy, Bedford
Lisbon and St. Mary’s streets, and in the alleys
connected with them, there are innumerable
yards where the filth is piled up in greit heaps
which have not been disturbed for mouths;
where the vaults are overflowing so that a man
with a sensitive nose cannot breathe within a
hundred yards of them; where animal and
vegetable matter lies rotting in the sun, nurs
jDg the seeds of pestilence, and where unclean
human beings are clustered together in poverty
and rags and dirt, without a chance to wash
their bodies or to relieve their lungs from the
poisonous atmosphere. In one yard, in Darcy
street, there is a festering mass of garbage
which seems to include almost every known
thing that Is subject to decay, and which is
great enough to fill a dozen carts. This plague
ppot has not been touched by the Boar doi
Health or by anybody else since last spring. It
smelled rank to heaven last summer, and if
there is not some pretty active work in tliat
quarter it will smell a great deal worse, and
cause a great deal of sickness this summer.
The cellars in all these streets are horribly
dirty. They are used for lodgings nightly by a
motley swarm ofqiersons, and as there is no
ventilation, and the lodgers are so unclean that
a decent man would hardly like to touch them
even with tongs, it will readily be believed
that the cellars are in an unwholesome con
dition. The stench that pours up from the
trap-doors of most of them is simply inde
scribable. A person accustomed to a purer at
mosphere could not breathe this air five jnin
ates without fainting. It is an undoubted fact
that there have,been several cases of fever of a
malignant character in these dens, and there
are one or two now. In some instances death
has resulted; and the body of one of the vic
tims was suffered to remain unburied- until
putrefaction set in. Whether this is “ relapsing
fever” or not, is , a disputed„quea ion. . The
missionary tli lnks it is; th.o Port Physician?
Dr. Goodman, a most competent ami skilful
officer, nltbpugh be has not been summoned to
attend any of the cases, doubts the asserted
fact. If there are any more cases, the matter
will probably bB settled beyond dispute.
The Coroner has promised that he will have
dead bodies removed in the future, when the
relatives of the deceased neglect burial, and the
Board of Health has really done some good
.sanitary workwitliiu the past few days, so we
may expect some improvement in the health
and appearance of the district. But there is
an enormous amount of labor to be done yet,
and in the vaults, collars and yards the filth is
of such a character and in such quantities as to
require immediate and ceaseless attention. The
Port Physician recommends that the worst
collars shall be closed up for the summer;
that the dwellings, fences and out-housies
shall be whitewashed every week, and
that the police shall compel the property
owners, to clean the vaults frequently. We en
dorse this suggestion heartily. Spasmodic ac
tion in this matter is useless. We must have
systematic, persistent effort through the whole
of the warm weather; and this plague spot
must he cleansed, and cleansed as often as it
needs it. The only remedy for the pestilent
cellars is the total abolition oftlie lodging sys
tem, anu prohibition of their use for any pur
jose whatever. If a complete police system
is adopted, we may escape an epidemic disease
this summer; if there is any trifling with the
foulness of these slums,the worst consequences
may he anticipated? '•

The New York Tribune is getting danger
ous. Yesterday, it got off the following, in all
the awfulness of a double-leaded editorial:
11 Our readers will appreciate- our forbear
ance to comment.during its progress on the
remarkable phases presented by the McFar
land trial. When it shall have been concluded,
we shall ask attention to the ciuestion —How

ladies who are not even legally.- charged with
any offence, witliolitthe shadow of excuse,
and without incurring judicial admonition?”
Docs this mean blood? Is Horace upon the
war-patli? How the imagination kindles at,
the idea of a hostile message from the, ancient
vegetarian"philosopher to the fiery Graham!
Everybody knows how it will end. Greeley
will compile an extra string of strong adjectives
expressly for the occasion, and will anni
hilate Graham some fine morning with a
double-leaded screamer: “ You arc a — ; ,

LIAR!” And then the war will be over
The strike among the iron-workers at Creu
zot in France is said to be over. And now it is
to be hoped that the Associated Press despatches
will stop telling about La Creuzot. The French
papers call the place “Le Creuzot” and the
English “ Creuzotjust as the French sea
port Le Havre is called Ilavre in English. The
New York Associated Press, however, has per
sisted in making Creuzot of the feminine
gender.

Cikojnnati, April Hi.—Early thin morning
the-.tow-boat Haven, having a number of
batgcs loaded with iron ore in tow, exploded
near Landing, from which a start
had jilijt been made.’ The boat bad laid up for
two.days for.repairs to a leaky boiler, and bad
started, on again, but with full cocks, and : with
the customary pressure of 140 pounds of steam
in the ; boiler. The engineer dis
covered indications of continued weak
ness, and advised that a landing bo made
again. In the accomplishment of this purpose
the capstan was bent, and the boat had neared
the shore, when one of tho gang of four boilers
hurled the decks and everything above its bed
into the air. The Haven was built in 1804. In
1806 she was in the Government service, in
Mobile bay. She was purchased about
eighteen months ago by the Homeroy Salt
Transportation Company, and was valued at
S'kOjOOO. The boilers were six years old.
Of .the crew of twenty-four persons,the pilot,
Asa Woodward, and Ids assistant, George
DeWolf, a nephew of the captain, wero lost.
CaptainDeWolf was severely injured about
tho head and arms. Madison Cercle was badly
scalded. Keubeu Lausser, a lireman, had his
arms, shoulders and eyes seriously scalded.
Lilas L. Bowen, a deck hand, badly bruised.
George Abels, the engineer, shockingly
bruised and scalded. John Christy.a fireman,
slightly injured. Sain. Harley and L. Brown,
dick hands, slightly scalded. Levi Lausser,
the steward, cut in the face. Hubert Decker,
assistant-steward, badly hurt. Allen Ellsliirc,
carpenter and watchman, scalded. Joseph
Martin, assistant-engineer, slightly scalded.
•Joshua Male, Hobert Hicks, William Love and
Thomas White, all deck bauds, slightly ia
„ jured.
Hine of the-wounded mpn wero taken to the
Good Samaritan Hospital. The tires were ex
tinguished by the ex plosion,and more dreadful
consequences were averted.
The explosion was scarcely known, even
upon the thickly-peopled hanks on either side.
A dull noise was heard, hut no light or other
unusual alarm was raised, and hut few were
attracted to the spot, until the assistance
necessary bail been almost fully rendered by
some ’longshoremen, and passing ferry boats.

PhllAdelphla Honey Market*
Saturday, April 16, ]<7OA-Jdoney is in fair request
to day and both speculative and business borrowers aro
in good numbers in tho market. There is a very per
•eptiblo increaso in the amount of mercantile paper,
which indicates an improvement in general business.
There Is no lack of funds, however, to meet all require
ments, though it is quite possible that a steady revival
in business, such asls now going on» may, in a week or
two hence, change tho features of tho market from ex
treme ease to stringency.
Tho range of cull loans is still 6as per cent.—the latter
figure predominating,and prime discounts average about
7 percent.
The Gold market is active to day, though there is very
little speculative dealing. The sales opened at HSM. but
previous to noon tho premiums fell down to 113&?, and
closed about noon at 113*4.
Government securities were (lull, but strong, in har
mony with gold. Pricos at the opening board wera
about JVa?. higher on Thursday evening, but it is quite
probable that prices will suffer a roliipao.
Business at the Stock Board this morning was dull.
In State Loans there was a good Inquiry. Sales of the
Sixeeieepond,series,at 106; third do.at 108, and regis
tered Fives at 100. City Sixes were rather uuiet; small
sales of the now bonds at 10216. Lehigh Gold Loan wbb
strong at 92 for tho 600 s.
Beading Railroad was dull, but steady, at with
out sales.' Pennsylvania Railroad sold at 68)4 ; Lehigh
Valley at 66, and Camden and Amboy at 119.
Thero was little doing in the balance of the list, but
£ rices were generally steady. Small sales of Mechanics’
ank at 32Ac; Northern Bank of Kentucky at 118, and
Western Bankat76.

The Cnban Insurrection
[ Special Deoatch to the Phils. Eyenlag Bctletin.)
Washington, April 16.— Despatches re
ceived by the State Department from our
Consuls in Cuba are alike in representing that
the active partof the insurrection is atan end,
although there is a considerable force of in
surgents scattered over the Island with arms
in their hands, and these it will be impossible
to subdue for years to come.
The Cubans have commenced a wholesale
destruction of property, and do not make any
distinction between that belonging to friends
or foes, but serve all alike. The Cabans pro
fess great confidence In their ability, when the
sickly season commences, to regain all that
|hey have lost during the past year; but these
professions are received by the authorities
with many doubts and degrees of allowance.
The Peace Conference.
It seems that Mr. Caldwell, who was ap
pointed Minister to the United States from
Bolivia; was not commissioned to represent
that country in the Peace Conference between
Spain and the South American Republics, so
that the Conference cannot be held until the
arrival of a representative from Bolivia or
Chile. As soon as the Commissioner from
either of these powers arrives, the Conference
will be held.
Applications For Consulships.
There are over two thousand applications
on file-at the State Department for consul
ships, nearly all of which are well-endorsed.
‘ Tile Georgia Hill.
ate talk among the Senators to-day is that
the Pomeroy amendment to the Georgia bill,
providing lor a new election of members of

A canvas of the Senate shows that the Bing
ham amendment stands no chance whatever
ot being adopted, although its advocates are
working energetically to secure its passage.
There are some doubts manifested as to the
Senate taking the vote on Tuesday, as agreed,
owing to the desire on the part of several
Senators, who have not yet spoken, to make
speeches.
Postal Contracts.
The Joint Committee on Retrenchment are
in session, to-day, considering several postal
contracts made by the last Administration.
The Mew Fost-Ofliee Appropriations.
In addition to the amount appropriated for

j Mauch Chunk, Pa., April lth—The ! Pres
ident of the W. B, Association of the' Carbon
.district of the Lehigh region has given notice
;to the different operators that a suspension of
work on the part of (ho miners would take
place on and after Monday, the 18th. The ao
jtlon ol the other districts remains to bo heard
from, though should one suspend all will fol
low. The causes assigned Dy the men. for this
unexpected action are vague .and unknown
even to themselves, as no reduction of wages
iwas] mado or offered them; but as they are
taxed to support the men who are on a strike
in the Schuylkill region, they. have concluded
that it, would be better to join in a strike with
.them, and assist in that manner, rather than,
as when working, support those who aTe idle.
The Lehigh men having been at work for
some time past, have accumulated suflloient
means to sustain a strike, much more so than
the Schuylkill men, who entered it in a poor
condition, having worked but a short time
during the winter.
The Lehigh Navigation mon at Summit Hill
have not yet resumed work, having been on a
strike for the last six weeks.

THE CESSION OF CUBA.
Why the Island Should be Sold.
LaDistusion. of Madrid, March 23, says:
The Cuban question, looked at. politically,
economically, or otherwise, presents the same
features, and invites to one solution, namely—
the cession of the island. This, it proceeds to
say, is a general opinion, and is shared by
eminent men of different political schools.
To those who speak in disdain of the sale of
the island, LajDiscusion offers the following
considerations: 1. Though it be deemed
a misfortune, still Governments need
money. 2. We would not propose a
sale unless we were fully con
vinced of the impossibility of harmonizing so
many conflicting interests. Therefore we look
out lor the best means of obtaining a just in
demnity for our rights. 3. That which is now
proposed ha< been done on former occasions,
and, if examples need be cited, we need not
search for them abroad, for we shall find them
At home. Did we not give Florida to the
United States in payment of what we owed
that country ? Let ng not be deceived. Spain
cannot hold Cuba, and,if we would not lose all,
let ns at onco think seriously of a cession of
territory. If men cannot stop the march of
events, they ought, at least, to obtain the best
possible results therefrom.
