    THE CUBA &MUG.
Flight, Arrest and Ileturn of Lopez.
The news from Cuba is exactly what was ex
pected. Some small town would be attacked,
on landing, and taken, and that would be the end
of the exploit.
It wilt ho seen that the n victorious march" of
Ucn. Lopez and his army, bee been chnnged all
of a sudden to a precipitate retreat to Key West
followed by a "•Sre in the tear" from a Spanish
War•steamet.
Lopez and his band, after entering
Cardenas, taking the jail, burning the
Government House and taking the troops
prisoners became disheartened. Either
they were disappointed in the reception
given them by the inhabitants, or were
alarmed at the approach of the Spanish
forces. Lopez and his force hastily got
to board the steamer Creole again and
%ailed fur Key West. They were pur
'sited by the Spanish steamer Pizarro,
kiat escaped and arrived safely.
The steamship Isabel which sailed
from Havana May 22d, for Savannah
and Charleston, touched at Key West as
visual, and there General Lopez, with
his aid and acme other friends got on
hoard, and arrived safely at Havanna
on Friday night. The Creole, in the
meantime, was seized by the Collector
'of the POI t of Key West, by an order
of our government, for a violation of the
laws, and the 600 men who were landed
from her are amendable to the same
law.
On Saturday evening the U. S. Mar
shall at Savannah, by orders received
per telegraph from Washington, arrested
(latent! Lopez and his aid. They were
taken before Judge Nichols of the U. S.
District Court, but there were no wit
nesses against them, and they were dis
charged at a quarter before I'2 o'clock.
Lopez was escorted to his lodgings by
an enthusiastic crowd. lie made a
speech* to them, and expressed his deter
ininatiou to carry out his designs. lle
left for Mobile, accompanied by his aid.
Such has been the end of this bueetinier or
robber expAition, got up under the garb of pa
triotism for the purpose of spoil and plunder.
Another Terrible Steamboat Disaster.
ST LOUIS, May 28.
Another terrible steamboat accident
'took place this evening. The steamer
st. Louis collapsed two flues, three miles
below the city, at quarantine. A fright
ful scene ensued-- the shrieks of the
wounded and dying were most heart-ren
ding.
•Frion all information which could be
'gathered in the confusion, it appears
eto,;,:ry-five liver were lost, arid forty per.
a uis wsmuded. About half the nutnber
-of perilous scalded will certainly die.—
The sufferers were mostly deck passen
gers. I have not as yet been able to es
t:et:sin the names of those killed. Nine
bodies have been recovered and buried.
A number were either blown or jumped
overboard, some of whose bodies will
probably never be recovered, Every
possible assistance has been rendered
to the sufferers.
The cause of the latuci.table catattro
phy is not yet knourn.
Assault and Robbery.
We learn from the Johnstown Echo,
'that u most brutal assault was perpetra
ted upon an aged man, named John
Harris, at the three mile dam, some six
or seven miles below Johnstown on Mon
'day of last week. Mr. Harris was trav
elling on foot to Ohio, and while resting
by the side of the tow path, was attack
ed by two fiends in human shape who
beat him until they supposed he was
dead, when they look his money and gun,
end tied. He was taken up by the crew
of a boat and carried to Johnstown. He
is so far recovered as t be able to walk.
We hope the perpetrators of the deed
may be arrestd and brought to justice.
The gun was a new one, and bears the
'name of R. or B. Bradley, stamped upon
the barrel, about three inches from the
luck.
Late from California.
By the arrival of the Cresent City at
New York from Chagres, we have news
three weeks Inter from California. The
amount of gold on the way to the Uni
ted States, is estimated at $1,000,000.
There is no news of much importance.
Mining operations were being prosecu
ted with vigor and success. Business
was dial at San Francisco but reviving.
Sacramento City had again been over
flowed and much damage done ; a lire
bad also destroyed property there esti
mated at $56,000.
Latest Foreign News.

DIED.
On the 20th ultimo, at her residence, Barred
Forge, Huntingdon county, Mrs. ELEANOR
lIENDERSON, aged 78 years, 3 nio., 15 days.
The deceased was the, daughter of Edward
Bartholomew, Esq., of Philadelphia. She first
intermarried with a Mr. Capper, an English
gentleman, and merchant of Philadelphia, who
died there, soon after their marriage. She then
resided with her father, until her second mar
riage with Jonathan Henderson, Esq., a lawyer
of eminent talents, and settled in the town of
Huntingdon, at a very early period, in the days
of Duncan Watts, Tilghman, and others.
They subsequently .eft Huntingdon and remo
ved to Cincinnati, Ohio— then quite a village—
having made the voyage down the Ohio river on
one of those peculiar kind of ~raft called, in the
quaint language of the day, "Broadhorns"—using
it us an ark of safety, cooking and sleeping on
board—there being no beautiful cities and villa
ges studding the borders of the magnificent river
at that early day—nor any Palace boats steam
ing their rapid course on its placid bosom, as at
the present time. After some few years sojourn
in Cincinnati, they returned to Pennsylvania—
meking the long tedious passage up the Ohio in
a Keel boat, submitting, consequently, to many
and severe privations. They resided on the Slab
Cabin branch of Spring Creek, in Centre county,
for many years. Here Mr. Henderson died,
having relinquished the practice of law long pre-
vious. Mrs. E. Henderson being again a widow,
and without children, gave up house keeping,
and took up her residence, with her neice, Mrs.
Rachel E. Green, at Barree Forge, of which
property she has been one of the proprietors,
and here closed her eventful life.
The deceased was a lady of brilliant intellect,
strong vigorous mind, clear and discriminating
judgment, and firm of purpose. Her memory
MIS remarkably retentive. Site was a nehroni-,
eh," from which to gather incidents of "days
tang syne." With a mind richly stored, she
was a companion of no ordinary character. She
kept pace with the politics and literature of the
clay, and communicated freely with all who
sought her society. She remembered well an
interview with General and Mrs. Washington,
when quite a child, at her father's residence in
Philadelphia, and often spoke of it with pleasure.
She was kind, affectionate, maternal—interested
herself in the family of her neice, identified her
self in all its relations, assumed the responsibil
ity of its government, and was in truth the
"Mater lamiliw." Many, many will mourn her
loss. She was a devoted member of the Pres
byterian church, attending upon and enjoying its
ordinances, at all times, when able to be about.
She died in the triumph of the Christian faith, at
peace with God and all the world, relying alone
upon the merits of Christ, her Redeemer, for
salvation—giving assurance, when on the verge
of Jordan, that all was well. "All was jny and
peace within."
