This brought general dismay to the Ameri- can portion of the community, as it makes American interests Lere look somewhat gloomy and hopeless. On the other hand, the foreign merchants are laugh- ing i their sieevea, because the intelligence 1s just what they have been hoping for; it strikes a blew at American commerce— What little there was of it—and leaves the field almost free to their mastery. Between these two parties stand the natives, who would not care if an American steamer never came here, as they are entirely oblivious to the best interests of their coun- try. When we say the natives the reader will un- derstand us to mean the controlling powers, both of the general and State governments, Indeed, it is us to our faces, leaving us the altervative cither of shouting “Long ive Spain,” and ‘Death to Guba,” or of meeting instant death. Arrests are being made day and night without an order irom the authorities, these being entirely pow- erless. The Spaniards are headed by Lombo, Garcia ntanilla, Luis Arrebarena and others the same stamp. Do not believe that I exaggerate, It is all too true, and I believe the isiand is ruined. Don Luis de Arredondo, at the head of 1,600 men, is in quiet possession of Cumanayagua. Don Juan Ville; with 2,000 men, 1s in possession of Camarones. Don Juan Jimenez, owner of the plan- tation Destino; Don Leandro del Juneo and his son Luis, Garceran, Cueto (the lawyer) and Adoiph Cabados, an ex-colonel of the federal army and Con- Bul of the United States, who has gone over to the insurgents with the captains of four American ves- sels and their crews, how at anchor in this port; Juan Martinez Gel Valle and others are the pringipal ers of our forces. These infuential men have induced more than ninety per cent of the inhabitants of the jurisdiction Of Cienfuegos to follow them. You may form an idea of the scarcity of money here when I tell you that we consider ourselves lucky if we can let our furnished houses free of rent to persons who promise to take good care of them for us. Famiues are emigrating to New Orleans, vamaica, Curacao and Carthagena, gnd even to New York, notwithstanding the rigor of the seasom. I consider myself a rained man, but I am willing to sacriiice all to have the satisfaction of seeing my country rid of the Spanish yoke. The Consul at Snuta Cruz and the Cubans. To rue Eviror oF Tag HERAL I notice in your issue of Thursday, 28th ult., a copy of a letter from the American Consular Agent at Santa Cruz to the acting Consul General at Havana, in which he charges the insurgents with having tn- terfered with himself and property. He says they have carried off some of his horses and forced some Poor faiilies in the victuity to move into his estate, ‘hey having taken from them their husbands as con- scripts, leaving the families to consume his cattle, vegetables, 4c. He concludes by saying he dare not Visit his own premises to see how things are, because they have killed several persons in that neighborhood lately. Now why does he fear the in- surgents? Has he interfered with them, or las he acted In any other way than in strict neutraily as becomes his ofice in such matters ? #4 Now, sir, I nave been Areader and patron of the HERALD for many years, and have always found you Teady oud willing to give an ear to both sides of a Story, ur, in other words, to give the Devil his dues; and if you wil allow mea space in your columns | will give you my version of ie story in as few words ‘a8 possible. T was, shortly after the breaking out of the rebel- Non, engaged on the estate of the Consular Agent at Santa Cruz, apd was present when the American fag was raised there, and that same evening a large y of insurgents, Wlule passing the estate, cheered our flag quite heartily and shouted “Long live the emblem of liberty,” and other words of praise and good feeling towards it. Those men were after- Wards encamped for some days a few miles below us on the road to Santa Cruz, and it appears from a (verbal) to the Consul from the officers in command that they had heard he bad only spekea of them 4s being nothing but a band of highwaymen and loafers, ‘Their message was im words lo UUs effect:—“We are sorry you have mistaken us and our motives, We have the honor to iniorm you that we are not highwayimen or loafers. We are a hand. ful of men who have risen up to defend our rights and to uy and gain @ lasting liberty and ireedoin Uke that great nawon Wuich you represent, aud we would gladly do without the shedding of biood if pee We are resolved that not one drop shall spilled that can in any Way be avoided, nor wiil we barm or molest any one who iets us pass in peace. ‘We want no forced imen in our ranks, We waat rather to be presumed that the authorities are glad of the event, from the fact that they have thrown every obstacle in the way of the success of the line. It has been @ source of infinite tronble for the agent of the company here to transact business with the omiciais, and it was only by repeated requests that the subsidy money was procured at each trip of the steamers. ‘The authorities at San Blas have figured up a big bill against the company for pilotage and lighthouse dues (imaginary items), and the ofticials ‘at Acapulco always sent a government pilot on board, who charged a round sum for lis unrequired ser- vices, These are only a few of the items that might be enumerated. The company likewise will have their bilis against the Mexican government, and it ia not unlikely that the affair im settlement will be brought before the proper authorities at Washington, Now that we are 0) to have @ steamer every forty days from San Francisco—and there are those Who assert that this prraugernene Will not last long— the Americans begin to think that they might as well leave the country while there is a chance to do so. ‘Thatdestiny about which we have all been talking for the past year does not seem as if 1% were about being fuliiiled, Yet you cannot get it out of ‘the blood that it will come some time or another. During the last year of steamboat history here how many speculations were born and ail died prema- turely. Still these were times when it seemed en- tirely probable that the American flag was vom) asthe only hope of salvation. Revolutions an civil wars had so aitiicted the country that hundreds believed 1t would be an act of mercy to stop ihe human butchery. Not a single steamer left these Waters that did not bring inteliigence to the Ameri- can public of revolutions, wars, pronunciamientos, assassinations, murders, highway robberies, kid- nappings, &c. And from all preseut appearances the future will be still more laden With sacridces than the past. It ls true that we shall have to have re- course to other aud slower means of commuuica- tion, but this will not at all lessen the crop of crinies, Aithough the attempted revolution which occurred here iast week, and the full particulars of which have been Prig forwarded, did not end in anyti serious, still the public mind 1s not yet relieved o! alarm.’ People are constaatly talking about a revo- Jution, which cannot be long delayed, as they because of the ehrontc customs that aiMict the coun- try.

In @ despatch by the last steamer to the Hnraup We mentioned tiat the American ship Frances 8. Steele, Captain Sinitt, had been boarded by a band of armed officials at San Blas and held as a prize for some asserted violation of the law. Captain Sauth addressed the American Consal here on the sunject, stating that neither himself, his crew nor vessel jad violated the laws, and asked redress. in the mean- time the United States steamer Mohongo, Captain Luce, happened to fortunately touch at San Blas, and th jumander of the steele immediately informed Captain Luce of the critical condition in which he found himself. The affair wes immediately investi- gated by the commander of the Mohongo. Here he found that neither the master nor the crew of the Steele had committed any breach of the peace, aud then demanded to know why an American vessel was thus violated. The commandant at san Blas then excused bimself, saying it was @ mistake, and a thousand pardons for the wrong done. If Captain Luce be reported right, he is said to have given the commandant some Wholesome advice with reg: to the demeanor and respect to be shown to Awerifan merchantmen when they touched in Mexican waters, which is not very often. When the juard first took possession of the Steele Captain smith asked them where their orders were, and they pointed to the muzzle of thetr guns. This so insulted the crew of the Steele that tuey demanded of thetr captain permission to filng thetr tusuliers overboard; but Captain Smith prevailed upov them to keep perfeotty quiet, and that before long there would be guns brought to bear upon them that would demand @ hud!

CIVIL RIGHTS IN VIRGINIA. RICHMOND, Feb. 17, 1869. ‘Though nearly two years have passed few have forgotten the charge of Judge Underwood to the Grand Jury at the opening of tne United States Cir- cuit Court here, in which he impugned the honor and virtue of the women of Virginia, end which 1s made memorable by its very infamy. A storm of indignation swept the State then, and from every section of the country came the most unmeasured denunciation of the slander and its author, who still disgraces the bench that is frequently graced by the Chief Justice of the United States, So national and general was the condemnation called forth by that charge that no one believed Underwood would ever again resort to calumny; but to-day he fairly eclipsed himself in his denunciations, not only of the people of Virginia, but also those of New York and Pennsylvania, The occasion was the case of a colored man named Robert Stevens, who sued the Fredericksburg Ratlroad Com- pany, under the Civil Rights act, for rfuse- ing to allow his wife to ride in a first class car when she had pald fora ticket that guaranteed that privilege, now 80 much sought after by the new citi- zens and citizenesses. This case had long been fos- tered by the Judge, a3 an opportunity to effectually break down the barriers that excluded tne negro from participation in all the privileges to which he was entitled under the Civil Rights act in Virginia, and one that was @ marked stride towards that so- cial equality which is one of the greatest and chief aims of the blacks. He wanted also to vent his spleen upon the people, who were forced to subinit to his judicial rule, by effectually wounding their feelings, which he so well Knows how to do, But in his eagerness to do this he transcended his bounds and overleaped the unfortunate Virginians on whom his presence 1s inflicted by taking in the pee of New York and Pennsylvania, though the former 18 his native State, for he came from Her- kimer county. The piamiiff laid his damages at $1,800, alleging that he had purchased for his wife a first class ticket from Baltimore to Charleston, 8, ©.; that she went — Uninterrupted until arriving at Aquia Creek, where: in attempting to enter the ladies’ car she was arrested by the con- ductor, refused admittance and desired to take aseab in the smoking car. This sie demurred agaist, insisting ou her right to enter the ladies’ car. The train now began to move, the woman re- maining on ihe-platform holding tirmiy to the tron railing, and upon being infermed by conductor that she could not be allowed to slay there, again positively refused to enter any other but the ladies’ car. Fisding remonstrance or the more gen- tle mode of persuasion unavatung, the conductor then orde two of the colored brakesmen to carry her forcibiy into the smoking car, which they did, one seizing Ler round the waist and the other by the legs. Oace within the car the door was locked and she was kept coatincd util her arrival in this city, where she at once sought the counsel of Judge Underwood, who re- ferred her to Governor Wells, then @ legal practi- tioner in his court. Suit was at once instituted and the case came up to-day, the above facts being sub- stantially elicited. An able defence was made by the counsel of the railroad company, who cited the decl- sion of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in the cuse of the Westchester and Philadelphia Railroad Company vs. Meyers, Penn. Rep., vol, 05, page 202. ‘Argument being closed the Court addressed the Jury, which was composed equally of six white men ‘and six negroes, in a charge that stamps him as the modern Jeifrey. He fully reviewed the facts as above, dwelling particularly upon the indigniwues oifered the lady, aud always emphasizing the word “dady,"? which was intended to Lave more than usual weight with the colored jurors. iie believed that in this republican country such foul treatment of colored persons by their former masters aod mis- treases could not be tolerated. All distinction must be done away with on account of color, It was nothing more than a relic of the barbarisin of that cursed slavery Which fad been & foul stain upon the escatcheon of the country for over two hundred yeara, and which had so long degraded and debased humanity, Here was a respectabie and in- deed remarkably tnteiligent colored lady brutally seized, when demanding nothing but what she was eptitiod vo, by two acrong men and forced into a car, which was devoted exclusively to smokers, drunk- ards and Ulackguards, Humanity and civiizetion re- volted at such barbarous treatment, Even tn those sinks of iniquity, New York and Pennsylvania, such distinctions would be done away with, aud they were only retained there to cultivate the trade and good will of the Southern siave aristocrats. ‘This 1¢ was that brought this great and free country into contempt among all the civilized and great na- tions of Europe and the worid, All social barriers must be sirickea down before the colored man will be in the (ail possession and enjoyment of those rigits which a8 a hoiman being be w entitied to, botu by the iaws of God and man. Poor, old, beloved Vu- ginis was now an iiustration of the well established fact that wrong-doers in the end suffer more from eflect of the Wrougs than those upon whom their jon was intended. The low and miserable pre; ces of the slave aristocracy had been too long and disgraceiuiiy exhibited by the people of this communtty. Kieamond had become famous for its degradation, corrupt morals, rottenness and trank- enness, which deplorable set of vices were 50 extensive and ramified as to pervade every class of society. Even the pulpit is disgraced by drunkards and, adherents of the rotéen slave aristocracy, aud it is now ® matter of ine inost sincere gratification that an opportunity ts at jast afforded to effectually cheek and rebuke sich licentiousness and corruption. Horrors tanumerable had aiready resuited from these vices, which were the offspring of the foul institution of slavery, and a check to them was needed. It is @ world. act that immigration was itupossibie and in- practicable because of these 1¥, Ihuseravle forms: of slave aristocracy and theiy coustant exhi before the world by the people of must beeradicated and crushed could rt assume an honorable position tn the eyes of the civilized world. Such & verdict should be rendered in the case under consideration as would be @ lasting warning and exampie for those evil-emiuded aad Ces genre persons who recog- nized any distinction of race or color.

Suggestions for Speedy Travel Through the City. “Country Reader” suggests a new plan for afford- ing speedy transit to the people of the city and vicinity from Harlem river to the Battery, which he believes ‘combines the greatest number of advan- tages with the fewest objectionable features.” He proposes that the Hudson River, Harlem and New Haven railroads should unite their termini on the north side of Harlem river; they should then unite with the several companies now endeavoring to secure speedy transit by underground, pneumatic and other meth unite their capital, pi the right of way from Harlem to the Battery, and erect an archway wide enough for tour t midway between the west line of Second avenue to the east line of First avenue, with wide carriage ways on either side. ‘The trains might run over this arched way, aud it might include a pneumatic tube for a parcel delivery. Under the arches arrangements for market stands throughout thelength might be made, and thus not only safe and rapid transportation of passengers and delivery of parcels. but also market accommodations through the whole length of the clty, could be secured. A Charge Against the Second Avenue Rail- road. “Uptown” writes ug to say that he rides daily in the Second avenue cars and purchases the HERALD from the newsboys. On the 17th inst, the conductor Tefused to admit the news venders into the car, stating that they had orders to that effect, and that one of the conductors had been suspended the day Previous for disobeying the injunction. Our corres- ponaans intimates that if any “suspending” 18 to be one, the experiment should be tried upon the com- pany’s#oflicera, as the Newsboys’ Association would probably furnish the hemp gratis. The Growth of New York. A “Civil Engineer” takes the same vicw as others of the growth of New York and vicinity, ‘The present boundary of the city, he says, should be measured by a circumference twenty-five miles distant from Union square, In 1860 the city’s population was $14,000, and the suburbs within that circumference, in round numbers, 760,000, To-day the city has 7,000,000 inhabitants and the suburbs within the twenty-five miles from Union square 1,225,000, thus giving this, the metropous, fity miles in diameter and @ population of 2,225,000. The average annual growth of the country has been three per cent and of cities five per cent for the last eighty years, doubling the city population every sixteen years, waich would, ™ 1884, give @ metropolitan population of 4,500,000, and in 1900 of 9,000,000, Association for the Prevention of Gambling. In reply to a paragraph in the HERALD among the’ “Notes About Town,” the president of this assocla- tion, Mr. R. R. West, informs us that it exists in fall vigor and efficiency, numbering among its 1,600 contributing members the foremost merchants and financial institutions in the cities of Brooklyn and New York. During the year 1868 there were reported to their employers 1,04 persons as having visited gambling houses; 70) of these retained their places and have reformed—ouly one being found and re- ported a second time. ‘The defalcations by employés ‘thus discovered varied in amounts from fifteen to 60,000. Great care is taken not to be imposed upon by agents and otners, and ali these reports were proved correct except one. Advice to Ladies. A lady, riding tue other day in a Fifth avenue stage, near the door, saw her dress move, and suddenly felt the hand of a boy, standing outside on the stepa, feeling for her pocket. She writes as of this as a waruing to ail ladies riding in stages. A Home for Workingwomen. “8. K. B.,” of Cleveland, Ohiv, sends us a lengthy communication on this subject. Our correspondent starts out with the complaint that the wages of women compelled to work for their support are en- tirely Inadequate, and that heace comfortable homes, where they could obtain cheap board, should be pro- vided for them, to Keep them from falling, through the want of the necessaries of life, She refers to the successful Woman's Home in Chicago; to the pro- gress and béaithful increase of the Workingwoman’s aod Young Woman's Homes in New York, and that the Women’s ©) tan Association i# about estab- lishing @ similar institution 19 Cleveland, for which the aid of the philanthropic iw solicited. Our cor- respondent very weil remarks that one of the chief Taulta lies in the education of youth, and she asserts that there is no Sarer Way to keep men pure than to piace young women in a position to remain pure. These “Homes for Women” very soon become self. sustaiiog, and the soouer, the larger the number of inmates becomes, paying & moderate rate for lodg- ing and board.

THE CASE OF JAMES GRANT, INDICTED FOR THE MURDER OF fi H, RIVES POLLARD, [From the Richmond Whig, Feb. 18.) In Judge Burnham's court pron the argument ‘was concluded on the motion of the Attorney for ihe Commonwealth to commit the accused.io jaii until the time fixed for his trial hext Monday. . Judge Ould, one oj his counsel, opposed the motion ‘with much earnestness. His client, ie said, had ap- peared in court promptly and putin his pies vo the in- dictment, and has not evinced the slightest disposition toshirk the fuilest investigation of the charge alleged against him. It is che object of bail to assure themat- tendance of a party accused ofcrime, aud if it be ueces- sary to imcreaye the amount in order to render the attendance of the accused more certato, the Court could increase the bail to any sum deemed suicient and it would be given, Something had been said by the opposing counsel about the presence of mone! in this case. The only evidence, however, of th! being the case is found in the fact thata gentleman has been employed w prosecute the accused witlle the Commonwealth has a paid officer whose duty it is to attend to its interests. Mr. Bunay, Attorney for the Commonwealth, con- tended that under the statute bail is not allowabie, and that the case, now that the accused has been indicted for deliberate murder, presents a diiferenc aspect from what it did before the Mayor when he led him. He cited cases of em] Key, General Cole, who; Hitchcock, and Dr. Webster, who killed Parkman, to show that neither their position, wealth nor the circumstances surrounding their cases were sumMcient to secure them bail. ‘The statute govern- ing bail in the States of Massachusetts and New York are very similar to tat of Virginia, and all are based upon the common iaw doctrine of Ei nd. He re- minded the Court that the eyes of the entire people of this country are upon it and would criticise its ac- oon veal Text tained his ition, and in Ir. Gilmer exp! posi an to dunige Ould, remarked that im representing ie Ce monweaith in this case he occupied the same mde- pendent position which he ever occupies when he aupeare in a case in her courts. Court reserved its decision on the motion Lor appre and held the accused to bat! as fore.
