People at a distance will hardly believe that such an ocsurrence could take place in the State of New York, which boasts eo much of its progress and high standing in the confederacy, without the perpetrators being promptly arrested and punished to law.

There are epochs in the history of mankind from which national outrages upon law andthe | feelings of humanity are transmitted to the lasting | execrations of posterity. If the details, lrea ly published, of the late execution of the fifty-two American prisoners at Ilavana, are, to any extent, | correct, the history of Spanish authority in the Island of Cuba from that day is marked with an event which will brand it with infamy throughout the | civilized world. But the atrocities alleged to have | been committed, in some accounts, do not appear in | others; aod there are witnesses by the Chere | kee, who testify that the cruelties of this ter- | rible work of slaughter have been exaggerated. For the credit of humanity it is to be hoped | that euch is the truth—that the gloomy trage- dy bas been over-colored, and that the dead bodies of the slain Americans were not outraged | to the horrible extent described. The Spanish sutberities had duly given notice of the fate of the invaders, if apprehended. The victias who were | tncrificed knew the consequences of a failure in ad | vance. They were prepared to die in battle; they expected death if captured. But neither they, nor the United States government, nor its people, nor the world, were prepared for outrages upon the dead which would disgrace a herde of Camanches. It is tobe hoped, that while our government is rigidly enforcing its neutrality, it will cause proper | inquiry to be made of the truth, in reference to these barbarities. It would seem, also, to be pro- per to inquire into tke reported indifference of the American Coasul to the slaughter of his country- | men. A men who could, under the technicalities of | official dignity, coolly lay aside the feelings and duties of a fellow man, and absent himself froma scene where his presence might have mitigated it? pitiless vengeance, and given comfort t» its victims | in their last hour, is disqualided by nature as the | representative of a humane and generous people. | The sad news by the Cherokee, on Thursday night, created an immediate and intense sensation | throughout our city. Among the groups of anzious faces at the street corners, in the hotels, andat tne | newspeper offices, there was the same general out- burst of indignation, horror, incredulity, and pity A call for a p meeting in the Park was a | will employ all the means at their disposal to | anti-renters have done in this State, without their | violating the law, shooting down sheriffs while in | encouragement in every shape, from thé socialists, | measures forthe arrest of the persons who com | members of the department for insubordination; | either justice or benefits. | in their favor, and they are so sensible that their proceedings to tho uninitiated, or te in- form on each other. It will be a difficult matter therefore, to bring them to justice. Every at- tempt, however, should be made to do so, and we trust that the authorities of Rensselaer county effect it. It is hardly credible that a body of men, organized for the purpose of defying the law, should be allowed to pursue their iniquities so long as the being broken up and consigned to the State prison. Yet we have seen them continue from year to year, discharge of their duties, and tarring and feather- ing all who dare to serve process upon them. The public may thank the socialists of this city for the commencement of this organization, and the poli- ticians and Governor Young for its continuance. The auti-renters received aid, and assistance, and when they first entered upon their unlawful career; and when some of the ringleaders were, at a great expense to the State, tried, found guilty, and sen- tenced to prison for a number of years, they were releaced by the then Governor of the State, who was elected to office partly by anti-rent votes. The lesson thus taught them wae, consequently, of no avail, and by reason of the want of firmness dis played by the Governor on that oceasion, the anti- renters soon again became formidable. From one step they proceeded to another, and at length went so far as tear aman eighty years of age from his bed, in the dead of night, and tar and feather him, for the crime of fulfilling the law. Now, we would ask the Governor of the | State, and the administrators of the law, whether or not they are determined upon using all necessary mitted this last outrage, and whether they have determined upon preventing a recurrence of it by all the meaus in their power? The people will in- sist that no method shall be left untried to bring these scoundrels to justice, and they will require of Governor Hunt, no matter what the expense may be, that be shallcall out the military to aid the | authorities in vindicating the law, and, ifnecessary, declare the county of Rensselaer in a state of in- surrection, so as to put down the insurgents. There should be no more honeyed words used to the anti- renters; on the contrary, they ehould be dealt with as harshly as possible, and they should be shot down if they co not submit. We have, indeed, fallen upon evil times, if a handful of anti-renters can set the law and its officers at defiance with im- punity in this State InTERFERENCE oF Powrrics wirn Municrpat Instirvtions.—The report of the Chief Engineer ofthe Fire Department, recently published in our columns, though not so voluminous as that of last year, is worthy of attention for many valuable sug- gestions which it contains, The gist of these may be found in the propositions made by Mr. Carson, for the purpote of separating the Fire Department from the circle ef political influences which have injured and crippled both its character and effi- ciency as municipal institution. Mr. Carson has Proposed to form a judiciary committee to try the the decisions of the committee to be referred to the Common Council for ratification. A financial com- mistee, similarly constituted, and with similar re- strieted powers, is proposed, also, to regulace the financial affairs of the Department, in place of the Committee on the Fire Department, which is com- posed of politicians, and those who have not the | best interests of the Department at heart, and who are not calculated to distribute, with an even hand, These recommendations have many arguments | all the intelligent members of the Fire Depart. | ment will unite at once and call all the engi- neers and foremen together, to pass resolutions in | favor of such wholesome suggestions. The Fire | Department will do themselves honor by separating | from all political influences. They can effect the object, if they undertake it with a stern and inflexi- ble will. Should the Common Council refuse to make the separatior, as desired, an issue will be | made for the fall elections, which will not be with- out ite advantages. It is now quite evident that there is no sympathy between the Department and the Committee upon it in the Common Council; and the sooner a better state of things exists, the | more satisfactory will it be to the mass of citizen: ofthe Polynesian are to the lith of June That paper, discussing the subject of “ Independence vs. Protection,” uses the following language, after mentioning the sup- Position that the native government is liable to become | » the hour, should i to be t} reign of this 01 foreign governments, subjects. acknowledged and treated and respected and beloved ‘But it admits that the event thus to be deplored, is certuin to occur; and says, in reference to the rapid in- ind citizens of the United states: flux cf British subjects a It cannot escape the obser that, with the fast dir: them pepnatve. sae nd in moulding society upon ® permanent for the futur of the House of Representativ.s there, re the following: — , Rhodes presented a resolution to the effect that the House request the Minister of Foreign Relations to furnich | them with all the information im his possession in regard to | ct said to have been entertained by some of is Ma- | y's winisters, to annex these islands to fue United States, aid on the teble, ‘The Polynesian, of the 7th of June, gives the following: Died, in this city. of paralysis,on the eveuing of the 24 inst’ Kekaucnobi, grand daughter of Kamehameha I, aged 40 years, Kekauonc bi was one of the wives of Liho | itho, befvre the tntroduction of Christianity.

This of iteelf was rufficient to sustain or to put | up prices, But for the news from Cuba, the advance would bave been still greater, and speculators for a rise might bave been disposed to have taken large quantities of tock. The bears may work the market up two or three per cent more, before they come forward with as much force as sellers, At the first board, to-day, Erie Bonds, convertible, advanced 1 per cent; Portemouth | Dry Dock.
