• IRON CLADS FOR CUBAN WATERS.
Centaur - is the name of the iron clad
dispatched to- Santiago de Culis to in
quire into all the circumstances attend
inethe execution of Speekman, and, if
neco!sary, to demand prompt reparation
by _ the Spanish authorities. y Several
or-lbe -- lieaviest iron clads will soon'
be dispatched to the Cuban coast.
The. Dictator will be prepared in six or
eight days to - proceed thither, and the
Seminole will be • ready to-morrow:'
Three of the vessels composing the, pres
ent,equadron have been obliged to' leave
Cuban waters, owing to the prevalence
of yellow fever , on board. Within the
heat two weeks twenty vessels will be
available for public service in that direc
tion and elsewhere. There ischo reason
to believe that Admiral Hoff will be re
lieved of: the ccuximand of the squadron
in Cuban' waters, tinkt§a a request should
come from himself, as was ascertained
to-day at the-Navy Department from an
authentic sotirce. , The authorities deny
that they Jinn arty fault with him on ac
oount of his official conduct.

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON, July B.—Lord Carrington was
up before the Police. Court.to-day on the
charges of assault and pro eking Messrs.
Greenville and Murray to tight a duel.
The trouble between. these gentlemen
arose from certain attioles alleged to
have been written by Mr. Murray. After
the examination, Lord Carrington was
bound over to keep the peace, and h eld
for trial on the second count., After these
proceedings a disgraceful and remarka
ble scene occurred in the bourtrroom.
The partizans of Murray, who were
present in gre'at 'force, attempted to
seize a box of papers which had been
stolen. In the melee which ensued
blows were freely exchanged and the
Magistrate's table overthrown. Twelve
policemen were called in who septirated
the combatants and restored order.
The morning Star says: Tha British
people have no right to indulge the Peers
who would deprive them of 'be luxury
of being just. Hardly one of the amend-.
ments to the bill agreed upon by the
House of : Lords can be tolerated by the
country.
,LoNnotc, July S.—The Times to-day
observes that the spirit in which the
House of Commons have lately discussed
the Trades' 'Union bill speaks volumes
for the effect of impartial and exhaustive
inquiry. The increased attention given
to the subject is not the. effect of the
pressure of union leaders' on the legisla
ture, but is due to the greater knowledge
and wider experience •of the members.
Although the bill is not lixely to pass,
the principles it contains will form the
basis for a gOvernment measure to he in
troduced next session, which will
repeal all laws making combinations
illegal, relieve workmen from special
penalties for Trades Union offences, and
bring their funds within the provisions
of the Friendly-Societies act. The. Times,
in. conclusion, says: Trades Unions will
continue to exist, whether protected by
Parliament or not._ True statesmanship
will seek neither to augment or reduce
their influences, but accepting them as a
fact give them free scope for legitimate
I development.:

Final IPresentment. •
The Grand ;Tory having concluded all
the business biought before th'em, made
the following presentment yesterday,
after which .they. were discharged With
the"thanks of the Court: ' -
To the . Hthuirable Tsidge of the Court
Quarter sgeskkma of . Allegheny'Vounty:

tbiposrattad,tuh; that. our prisons are
filietl ; to
everfloymg, and. that , crime in
every shape stalks abroad in open day,
anff, sd Much destitutiOn and wretched
nemeses seen on every firnd. We have
.seen enough during our session to,satisfy
us that an alarming state of affairs exists
arising fromthe preoltut system of grant-
, .
Wohaveyeason-, So - believe our ward
and borough constables arepot sufficient=
ly vigilant in detecting illegal traffic in
:lirtuors at some of our drug, stores, where
they are sold and drank on the premises
Is• the and injury demoralization of
young men, on week days as- well as
on the sulbbrith.
We desire further to call the attention
of the people to that class of officials
known as Aldermen and Police Magis
trates. It is astonishing the number of
Ca 4641 that have passed through a hear
ing during this session which had no
foundation at all' to Justify the charges
made against the. parties, thereby com
pelling the Grand Jury, when ignoring a
bill, either . to inflict the costs on the
county, which' is ',manifestly unfair, or
saddle them on ; the prosecutor, who has
been misled by the, stupidity, cupidity,
or perhaps worse, , of the magistrates
before 'whom the matter waapresented.
We regret that we have not the power of
discriminating between prosecutor de
fendant and, committing • magistrate in
assessing the, costa .in such cases. We.
trust the daY is not tar distant when
our Legislature will pass a law empow
ering Grand Juries to impose the costs
on magistrates when they are manifestly
in,fault. If thiS were done, there would
be less business' permitted • to come bofore
, the Courts and prove a great saving to;
,the county. _
As it is customary for Grand Juries tp
'visit the public institutions in which the
county Is interested, we will endeavor to
-give some idea of the manner in whi
tbey Areinsinaged,lirld will be as brief as
1 - possible,..presuming that the ,annual
published reports. of each will convey all
I needed.information.
The Counts, Work House is progress
ing towards completion as fast as the
nature of•the work Will admit. The east
wing of the building is intended for
male convicts, together witehe hospirrit
-rooms. Library and Wanel are now
, under roof and will.be ready to receive
I inmates about September. The Board of
Directors deserve the thanks of the peo
ple of Illegheny county for their untir
ing zeal and energy in promulgating and
advancing that praiseworthy and noble
enterprise. When completed, it.will, in
a great measure, compel those that lead
an idle and unprofitel3le Imprisonment in
oar county jail, at the expense of the tax
payers,,,tti labor for their own support. as
well asraciii• a revenue to the Institution.
We can also bear qheerful , testimony
to the very able manner in which the af
fairs of the County Home are Conducted.
The. Superintendent and his kind
family, with the assj , :tants in' their dif
ferent departments, deserve the highest
praise from tax payers of the county for
the faithful discharge of the . ditties{
posed upon them. Ttle selection of uch
aid shows the good judgment of the Di
rectors into whose hands the people have
placed this important trust. 'Under the
direction of a competent farmer, the
work on the farm and in the garden is
nearly all pdrformed by the inmates,
which, to .a .;great extent, makes the
Home self.supoorting. •In connection
with this, the school; under its skillful
teachers, is an interesting feature and
merits, the highest commendation. -
Our inspection of the Dixmont Hcepit
al compels us -to say. that in our opinion
the management , cannot ,be Improved
upon. This immense structure is com
plete in all its, parts, and" every depart
ment is conducted with a Single eve to
the comfort and welfare of its• unfortu
nate. inmates. And yensp orderly that
everything moves along like clock work,
and each and every:room from end to
end and from base to attic, is a model of
neatness and cleanliness. The credit of
this noble work is due to the efficient
and able Superintendent and his kind
lady, together with' his skillful and
worthy assistants, all contributing tothe
complete success of the institution.
The House of Refuge was next visited,
and, without any previous notice being
pVen, we found the house throughout
perfect order and exceedingly neat
and clean. •Mr. Avery, the estimable
Superintendent, accompardedus through
the various rooms, workshops, schools,
cells, Ate. The inmates were busily
employed at work In the several,depart
ments., This mode of conlinement t
Varied as iti - with work, study_ and ,rec
reation, and last, though rot least, Chris
tian education, serves to ameliorate the
vigor at prison life and works a refOrma
tion for good when their terms expire;
and, we feel assured the management un
der such excellent .supervision is all that
can be deriied towards that end.
