The Cuban insurgents will net ac cept mr terms which include the continuance of Spanish sovereignty over the island. They have been fooled often enough with promised reforms, and are now determined to have independence. It is estimated that New York city during business hours contains a pop ulation of 3,400,000, the railways and ferries alone bringing to to town over 300,000 passengers. ihe time is near when Manhattan Island will be the only nucleus of the city. King; Song, "America." Comrade Albaugh now addressed the audience. His patriotism and love for the flag shone forth in every word. Com rades Siireins, Bon mil n 8nd Polerson made pleasing remnks, followed by a jolly camp-fire song by Comrade Hums, llio patriotic address deliv ered by Uev. llillard was expressive of deep thought and sincerity. At the request of the soldiers Messrs. U. ki. 5cott and H. . 1 uiim made a few well chosen remarks. Mr. Timm spoke in behalf of the pupils of the school, assuring the veterans that the Hag which is so dear to their hearts would be nobly defended by youDg America, should it please their coun try to call on them. "Patriots, No ble aud True, was then sung by sev eral young ladies. On returning to the open air the school gave three cheers for the veterans, to which the soldiers responded with cheeis for the school, the teacher and the flag. Thus ended the ceremonies of raising the banner of the brave as a benediction of peace and light to all who tread beneath its bright folds. Unfurl the starry Banner, Ict it wave o'er land and sea ; A beacon light to glory And a guide to liberty.

An Ohio Trip. 1 he Venezuelan Commission is proceeding in a very deliberate way, and will probably not be ready to make a report before next December; but meanwhile it will be unserved, England is carefully pursuing a pol icy ot inactivity iu the case, and bo there is no reason for hasto on our part. ' The Massachusetts Democratic platform places the responsibility for bard limes on the last Republican Administration. This is not claim ing much for Democratic ability. A party that can not take hold of bad times and restore prosperity will be bounced, and bounced hard, by the American people. It is proposed to seud '40,000 tin raaried women from Eastern Canada to .British Columbia tor the purpose of supplying the demand for wives The same thing was once done by France, it will be remembered for the beoefit of the preponderant bachelors of Eastern Canada, and the results were entirely satisfactory. The Democratic State convention, which met at AlleDtown last week, launched ex-Gov. Pattison'a Pres deutial boom, nominated James Denton Hancock of Franklin, and Benj. C. rotts of Deleware county, for congress-at-large, and elected among tho district delegates to the Chicago convention, Judge Charles II. Noyes, of this district. While the Russian railway across Sibera will be comparatively free from snow, pasBengers in winter must expect to experience some pretty cold weather. The average January tem perature along the west end of the route is only three degrees above zero, and occasionly the mercury goes to 50 degrees below. The gen eral course of the road ia several hundred miles north of that of the Canadian PaciCc. In summer the temperature will range between 68 aud 77. At Yladivostock water freezes 150 days of the year, but it is as good as settled that the eastern terminus of the road will be several hundred miles south of that -", Flag Kuisiuu vu Fleming I1UI. riday, JUsy let, having been ap pointed for raising the stars aud stripes over the Fleming Hill school building, was a day of interest and pleasure not only to the young peo pie of the vicinity, but to their elders, also. The weather was favor able, and the many, who, inspired with a leehug ot patriotism assem bled to witness the raising of "Old Glory," did credit to the surround ing couutry. Tbo Hag is of the best material, eight by fifteen fret, and floats from the top of a fifty foot pole. Soldiers, remembering days long past, and inspired with a feeling which none but they can know, because they realize to the fullest exteut the price at which our country nag was purchased, came from far aud uear Besides the Neillown and Faguodus veterans, we were pleased to see the Eli Berlin pout well represented. The teacher, Miss Ellen Hull, opvued the exercises by raising the flag to its proud height, while "Unfurl the Starry Banner" was sung. This was followed by a salute and cheers by Hie U. A. It. lne interior ot the building was tastefully decorated with evergreens aud nags. lue exercises iu th school bouse were opened by prayer by Kev. llillard. Hie program which was highly entertaining was as follows : Recitation, "One Flag," Master Maurice Brewster; Recita tion, "The Starry Flag," Miss J'earl Green ; Esaay, "The Star Spangled Banner," Mi Elizabeth Hull; Reci tation, "The American Flag," Mits Ellen McCarthy ; Singing, "The Star Spangled Banuer"; Recitation, "Our Country's Flag," Master Ernest Thinking that some few readers of the Republican might bo interested in a re cital of a low pleasant adventures of a lumber peddling trip down the Ohio val ley, we will here try to relate our exper ience. Leaving MeCandless' landing, or bet ter known to up-the-river men as Ixcy's landing, on Thursday, April 23, at 5 a.' m., under the guardianship of Capt. W. H. Geer, we were successfully piloted through the 10 bridges to where the Ohio, well named by the old French settlors, LaBclle river, is born and begins its onward march to join the "Father of Waters" at Cairo, a thousand miles away. The first object to greet the eye was that magnilicent hostelry put up by the State of Pennsylvania for the entertainment of its wayward sons and daughters, the Western Penitentiary, a truly magnifi cent building, but a grim reminder that it pays one to be good, at least for tho re mainder of the trip. Owing to a fow business matters we east anchor at Jacks Run and remained there all day. Owing to the thickness of tho fog next morning we were late in starting on our real jour ney; howecer, as soon as the douse white mist began to ascend, we were brought to our oars and onco again we were in the deep and muddy waters, Next, the celebrated Davis Island dam came in view, built by the general gov ernment for the benefit of tho Pittsburg harbor aud its coal interests. And now on our loft we have Neville Island, the largest island on the upper Ohio, with its beautiful garden farms and homes, and on the right rising high above the river on its perch upon the cliffs, lovely Dix- mont tho borne of (in thoir minds) kings, queens, dukes, ducheses and po tentatesthe Insane Asylum. A little farther down, on the right, Sewlckley, the beautiful suburban home of so many of riltsburg's wealthy business men The next in line is Dead Man's Island, on our loft. Years ago this island was much larger than it is to-day, and the reason of its being named "Dead Man," we learn from our friend. Capt. David Hendershot, . of Powhattan, Ohio, that when any one was drowned above he was sure to be found on the head of tho is land. It was at this same place that 30 coal barges loaded with coal for the lower markets were sunk last fall. One can see traces of the wreck yet. Soon tne twniKling liglils tell us that we are passing the abiding place of that queer sect, the "Economites," who have an swered to their satisfaction in the affirm atlve that question which has been agita ting the minds of the woild "Is marriage a failure." We find that the Queer old colony has been fortunate in possessing several large oil wells, the production of which is vory enchanting. The next place ol importance is Rochester, Pa. This place is noted for its extensive glass works, such as bottles and tumblers; the largest works of this kind is situated here. Just below us the Beaver river joins the Ohio, and here it is that the government proposes to build a ship ca nal, uniting tho limpid waters of Lake Erie with those of the LaUelle river, There is also a new river bridge in con struction at this point that will cost a fab ulous sum before being completed. We are continually passing interesting places which fill one with interest and wonuer. Alter leaving itocnester we pass Vanport, Morrill, Industry, Ship- pmgport, ueorgeiown anu men comes Lime Island, from which we passed into Ohio and West Va., leaving the dear old jieysione stale in our wane until our re turn. Next comes East Liverpool, cele 1 1 rated the world over for tho extent of its potteries, having the largest manufae tonus in me worm, uur nexi place is Wellsville. Ohio, where wo land for the night, having covered a distance of 45 in ilea. Here we acted as deck hands and left a small portion of our wares, and leaving eariy in me moruinir we pass sucn places as i enow ireea, JNew uum uerianu. Toronto, lirown'a Island. Stou benvilleand Mmgo, landing for the day at Brilliant, O., opposite Wellsburg oil uie west a. siae. Our next ston is at Martins' Ferrv. where we disposed of considerable of our stock to Bridgeport parties. Earlv next morning we pass Wheeling,' which stands second only to Pittsburg in the milliner anu extent o! its maulactories. ana rauKs at lue Head or all tho Ainerl can cmos in I tie output oi nulls. 1'assing Hellaire our journey is continued and the beautiful punarama that each bend and curve in the river unfolds to our de lighted gaze seem more beautiful than tho preceding one, until we looo sight of the fact that we are traveling on a river and wonder if it is not some beautiful highland lake our rait is on. From Wheeling to Powhattan no grander scenery can bo viewed from tho dock of a rail in this country, tho highlands of the Hudson not excepted. We do not expect to go much farther down on tho river voyage, and if we find any littlo inci dents worthy of mention we may add a note of it iu our next loiter. I will now name the crew of the "Floating Palaco"; First Captain, W. H. Goer; Second Captain, James J. Rogers; Pirst,Mate, A. L. Wollor; Second Mate, Jack Slroup; Motorinau, Harry H. Dot teror; Steward, Harry It. Thompson; Ferret Tamer, Will J. Collingwood ; Shingle Packer, George Brewer; Boat Clerk, Joo Miller. During our spare moments, we are constantly yanking out the lineht specimens of salmon, blue pike, Hiiulish and other varieties, ono lish in particular which was found on Harry Dotlerer's lino, tipped the scales at r.i lbs.
