We have just lately announced in the HERALD, ‘and the news is repeated from Madrid to-day, that m@ treaty has been signed between the North of Spain Railway Company and the Chief of Staff of ‘the Oarlist army for the regular resumption of the passenger and goods service on that line. The arrangement, which bears date the 14th of June, ‘was concluded on the formal en; ment of Gen- eral Noavilas, as Minister (6th y), that the re- ublican troops should abstain entirely from using he nd_Irun for the trans- men, war material or military stores, dise to and from France to take the route Burgos and Valladolid.

GUILLERMO ESTRADA. Faowrien or Spain, June 14, 1873, President Nicolas Salmeron and Cuba. The words of Sefior Nicolas Saimeron, who has just been appointed President of the Spanish Min- istry, will be read with deep interest at the present moment by the American people, as showing how he is pledged to help the Cubans to enjoy the Independence of their island. His denunciations of Spanish misrule and tyranny are as scathing as those ever pronounced by Chatham and Burke and other celebrated orators of the Englisn Parliament when they raised their voices in defence of the tights of the North American coloniese ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN CUBA. ‘The following are extracts from speeches of Sefior “8. Saimeron delivered in the Spanish Cortes :— In the Congress on the 27th of September, 1872, Sefior Don Nicolas Salmeron said :— sn ual ts tition yanisn “Abolitiontet ‘Socwety,, praying that an mot may be passed by the Cortes immediately NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, JULY 20, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. aboliahing slavery In the Isianas of Cuda ana rorto Rico, Justice demands that this barbarous institu- tion, hitherto partially upheld liberal government, snould im: ia pee and that Spain should purge her sot! of so fou! and black a stain. The honor of a solemn promise de- mands that the law should be made, since the pre) tory act of 1570 has never been carried out, and the regulations recently published in the Gazette are Bravely imperfect and defective. I ged , and the Cortes will doubtless do likewise, t Spanish citizens should have agreed that their first duty on the opening of the Cortes, which inspires them with hopes of success, was to present a petition demanding the abolition of slavery, and so to rid the country of so ignomi: nious an institution, so terrible a curse against the present and future generations, “CALL MB A FILIBUSTER OR NOT." During @ discussion on the Cuban question on the 14th of October last Sefior Salmeron spoke as follows :— To prevent all misinterpretation of my words I am decidedly a partisan, since I believe justice de - mands it, of the idea ol preparing all our coionies as quickly as possible for emancipation, because I think it unjust, opprovrious and a trespass on human right and dignity to maintain our domina- tion in the miscalled provinces, and allow them to be plundered by the representatives of Spain, who accumutaie and hoard up those enormous fortunes, BRED OF CORRUPTION AND FKD BY HUMAN BLOOD. Cail me or call me not “filibuster” after this as you please, In spite of the censures and calum- nies which may fall on my head, I shall remain always an honest man, who warns hia country of the iniquity and distionor of its colonial sysiem, and, who is always ready to defend and support relorms, particularly jor the emancipation of the colonies, to give them education and culture, which have hitherto : een denied them; to fit them to be soon tree aud independent States, and to rule themselves and have no other bond to tle them to us than that of sons, grateful for the food they have received trom their fatners, What is the radical colonial policy? Promises, promises and promines 4% hundred aud one times broken, which, if they be not soon {ulfilled, will bring discord, even in the bosom of the radical party itself, in the form of. recrimiuations as to precipitating tne loss ‘of insecure and coveted possessions. Although I may have faith in the cousisteucy of those who de- mand and insist on reiorm, a I FEAR IN OTHERS THR WANT OF COURAGE to face what they think unpopularity, and so con- tinue to make before the ido} of the national integ- rity sterile sacrifices, which, very far from assuring the Spanish domination, will only precipitate 1s Shameful ruin. It seems as if just now there were @ perfect determination, @ positive interest, to serve goodness knows What purpose or ends, that every mail to the Antilles should bear the assurance that the radical Ministry does not think of making, and does not consider that at present it can or ought to grant, any reiorms. In due time! These | are the words generally brought into use, and they may be translated by the well-known saying ad kalendas grecas. Let the government tell us, also, what it means to do in Cuba It will ice to say that the imsurrection renders impossible the endeavor to ory out liperal re- Jorma, and that such reforms would only show an unworthy weakness, a servile truckling, ,while a Single insurgent cries ‘Death to Spain!” ‘I main- tain that there 1s nothing antagonistic between the demands of justice and the duty, which I do not dispute, of upholding the national standard |. when it is attacked by force, On the contrary, on the promulgation of retorms, it would be seen that our soldiers went thither, not to shield the barbarous rule of these modern pro-consuls, nor to uphold the old régime, but rather to carry emancipation and the constitutional hts of Spain at the points of their bayonets, ese re- forms will be worth thousands of soldiers, and if they did not disarm the insurrectionists, as I be- leve they would, they would certainly save our honor, which is not always held by force of arms alone. No, this course would be no weakness, but rather @ virtue; the servile baseness, the wretched subservience is, really in praising the cowardly AND BRUTAL CONDUCT OF THE HAVANA VOLUN- TEERS, for whom the Colonial Minister has such honeyed flattery, I will not say at what cost, but be sure it ig a8 shameful as the acts of those who are the re- cipients of it. [marvel how a Minister of Spain,’ | who ought to uphold the honor and dignity o! the Spanish name, can, without the hot blood of shame rushing to his face, remember that these savage volunteers have shipped off to Spatn, the first au- thority in the land, the representative of the State, because, forsooth, he was in favor of reform; tliat they have prevented .the iulfilment of Sefor Moret’s act, which had been passed by the Cortes of the Spanish nation, and that they have com- bate the shooting of immocent victims in cold | bDlocd. With what dignity can it be said that after these acts, which are ditlicult to conceive in this nineteenth century, that the Havana volunteers defend the interests of Spain? Rather should it be said that those who protect the volunteers are ac- complices in the dishonor of their country. Grant to the Cubans the assurance that in future they shall live like a free people, at liberty to unite their destinies to those of Spain, which henceforward should have no other wish tnan to seek to educate them and fit them for the noble life of modern Civilization, HATRED OF THE NAME OF SPAIN. Ifyou do this your names will be revered in his- tory, but if not then it will be hateful and hated in the New world. Should we contribute to bring about the independence of Cuba we might say in time to America :—‘Our errors and our faults are now expiated. We oppressed and plundered you and our power decayed, your civil discords being still standing condemnation of our rule. Hence- forth we shall emulate the Anglo-Saxons in con- tributing to the aggrandizement of the new Con- tinent, where a high community of people prepares @ more elevated civilization.” This is in reality our mission in America, and know, ye Ministers of the government, that he who serves only the sordid interest of the present mo- ment is unworthy of the great name of statesman. What do you leave but a smear of blood by the in- surrection and a horrible stain by slavery ? CHOLERA.

Wasnrnerton, July 19, 1873, Oregon Decided Against a Third Term. Private lettors received here from Oregon an- nounce the fact that Mr. Nesmith, the late Senator from that State, is the most prominent candidate for the democratic Congressional nomination to Oil the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Wilson. AS there is but little doubt that the State is democratic the nomimation is looked upon as tan- tamount to an election. Mr. Wilson, it is said, carried the State by his personal popularity; but, aside from this, the mismanagement of the Modoo war, in the opinion of those here best posted, has made the State hopelessly iu opposition to Ceesarism, The Contest for the Governorship in arginia—The Administration Ready to Take a Hand in the Game. A letter has been received here from Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, in which he says that although | he could not submit bis name to the Republican Convention for the nomination for Governor, yet, if they will abstain from making any nomination, he will take the fleld as an independent candidate against the democratic nominee, and he feels sure that he willbe able to carry the State; that tn case of his election he would support the acministration of General Grant, as he be- eves he is @ sincere friend of the South and will do whatever may lay in his power to pro- mote her prosperity, The Republican Convention will meet on July 30, at Lynchburg, Va., to make the nomination for State officers. The democrats, or conservatives, as they more generally term at Richmond August 6 for | the same purpose. It is understood here that Hughes, the present United States Attorney tor the Western district of Virginia, will be the republican nominee. He married an adopted daughtor of the late Governor Floyd, the Secretary of War under Buchanan’s administration. He was the editor at one time of the Richmond Kzaminer, a paper strongly in favor of secession, At the close of the civil war he accepted the situation and has acted since with the republican party. General Kemper, it is said, has the: inside track for the conserva- tive nomination:. Me comuranded a brigade in Lee's army throughout the entire war,.in which he Was conspicuous for his gailautry, The numerous wounds he recetved and his popularity with his old comrades, it is thought, will render him a strong candidate, General Mahone, the railroad power of Virginia, is warmly in Kemper's favor, and it is said he will be able to control the Vonven- tion, Mosby is in favor of Wise as an independent candidate, and will hardly know what to do in case the race ts between Hughes and Kem- per, There are strong hopes expressed here that both Wise and Lyons, the well known lawyer of Richmond, will take the stump in favor of the repubiican candidate in order to throw the State on the side of the administration. The contest is beginning to attract attention in Washington, and as soon as the candidates are an- nounced steps will be taken to have the State thoroughly canvassed. The Navy Departwent Building Fire. General Franklin A. Stratton, the civil engineer at the Navy Yard, having made a thorough inspec- tion of the Navy Department building, reports that $10,000 will be necessary to put it in proper condi- tion, The damage to the furniture, carpeting, &c., amounts to about three thousand dollars, Ar- Tangements will be made to complete the repairs as soon as possible, as the Secretary is cramped for room in his present quarters, Internal Revenue Memorandums Colectors. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue bas ts- sued a circular to the Collectors of Internal Reve- nue in relation to fruit distillation, which provides that a true survey of each distillery must be made and delivered to the distiller on or before the day of commencing operations. Should distiliers desire to run on an old survey Collec- | tors must notify the Commissioner. Distillers are required to make monthly reports promptly, showing the time operated each day, and correctly showing the quantity and kinds of materials used, Where one or more kinds of materials are used on the same day the computation of the eighty per cent must be made on the material having the greatest capacity. The survey of every fruit distillery must be for its full capacity, and if one or more of the stills are not for use notice of the re- duction must be forwarded to the Commissioner.

POUND FOOLISHNESS IN HOBOKEN. The Hoboken pound is not a very attractive spot. The line of circumvallation is not well de- fined, and the only incentives that its four-tooted inhabitants have to remain therein are lines of ob- stinate hemp that serve as handsome neckties for the untutored prisoners. These ropes vary in di- mensions according to the size and disposition of the animals, It happened recently that a few ob streperous goate, in endeavoring to loose the ap- ry 9 that tightened their windpipes, left their Born hind them. It is rumored that they would not have done this had there been victuals enough in the pound, One of the agents of the 5. P. C. A. had the keeper, Mr. Crispell, arrested, the effect of which will be that the politicians, by spending few coppers in the improvement of the goats’ headquarters, will cease to be “penny wise and pound foolish.” William Anderson was arrested last night by De- tective Farley, charged with procuring goods oe a to Court this morning.

Alaska Street Reformation. {From the Philadelphia Evening Herald, July 16.) ‘The Mayor, Health Oficers and Building In- Spectors have given notice to parties owning and leasing pesthouses in Alaska, Soatford, St. Mary aud other streets in our “Five Points,” to close them up forthwith, or be subject to the penaities for maimtaining nuisances prejudicial to pdbie health. Captain Carry, of the police force, has been detailed to superintend the work on the part of the Mayor, but he has but amall hopes of thor- onguly cleaning the place out until the House of Correction is ready to receive about five hundred of the wretches Who make the iow dens thew homes. It is conceded now that the best charity for the region named ts that whicb carries the thong of the law behind it, for the squalor and misery is not ali the result of poverty. Some of tt comes irom & morbid habit or taste for crime, The locaties named in the above extract are those whose flith, squalor and crime were so graphically exposed by the recent Philadelphia correspondence of the HERALD. The Heathen at Our Own Doord. (From the Philadelphia Day, July 15.) The NEw York HeRALp’s Philadelphia corre- sSpondent has a@ second letter to-day, in which he describes the state of society in Alaska and St. Mary streets, His description 1s graphic and irightful; but does not exceed the truth. [tts far better than anything of the sort that our city papers have ever furnished, though they have made several attempts to give startling descrip- tions of the squalor, wretchedness and crime of these places. Now that the HERALD 18 served to subscribers in this city as early as our Own morn- ing papers, it is well that it should give attention to Philadeiphia matters, and it has begun well in thus showing up the physical, moral and intellec- tual condition of such streets as Alaska, St. Mary, &c. it is proper that the world should te informed, threugh @ journal of universal circulauion, what godless neighboriioods, what miniature hells exist here as the outgrowth of godly Philadelpma’s boasted morality, benevolence, “brotherly love’ @ud religion; for the universal exposure may shame our wealthy and pious people into taking earnest measures to rid our Community of these moral and social plague-spots. Something more than occasional visits and spasmodic effurt is ne- cessury to purily these pest-holes. ‘Taik and tracts are of no avail aere, Practice, not preaching, is wanted, It is @ reproach and a disgrace to this city that these disgusting moral sores have been su long negiected and allowed to spread and become so large upon the body potitic, While we have been collecting thousands upon thousands of doilars to ndto the heathen in Asia and Alrica and tue islands Of the sea the steeple shadows of sume of the very churches in which these thousands have been collected Cross and fall upon the vile dens of thousands of our fellow creatures than whom no greater heathens or more degraded wretches exist ep God’s earth. What more striking commentary upon our criminal inconsistency as proless- ing Christians could be imagined than this jact aud the jact that within but a short distance of these hordes of our own heathens tower to the skies palatial buildings dedl- cated bo the diffusion of Christian principles—vibie houses, the Sunday School Union buildings, re- ligious publication houses, a8 well as ostentatious church edifices’ While the Young Men's Christian Assoviation have purchased very valuable ground on which they are about to erect’ @ very expensive building for their headquarters, thousands of their fellow-beings, Within a lew *‘squar are suffer- ing irom the want not only o1 the “bread of Ite” eternal, bul the bread necessary lo sustain physi- cal Mie, and are living in indescribable moral wretchedness aud wickedness. Where else, on the face of the globe, do the temporal and eternal ne- cessities of man more eloquently appeai to the Christian heart? Nothing in heathen countries can be found to ex- ceed, if to equal, the moral degradation of these near neighbors of our protessing Christians. Yet our clergymen, with but few exceptions, with their eyes ixed on Hindostan or Timbuctoo, overlook these wretches at their own doors and plead pite- ously for money to send missionaries to the iar off heathen! These ministers of the Christian religion aud the great majority of our projessing Christians seem ignorant of the existence so near them of men, women and children, chiefly o1 their own race, who require everything in the way of Christian treatment and teaching that any human beings can require. Millions are spent in building fine charches and paying fine preachers; in printing Bibies and religious books and periodicals; in defraying the expenses of missionaries in foreigu Jands and col- porteurs in our owm, and in various Other Ways to promote the Gospel of charity, but not a cent to reform and raise up the fallen of Alaska and St. Mary streets and other iike localities right here What is it the blessed Saviour says?— wae at home! i was hungei and fave Me no mea thirsty, and ye aan He no gruk: L was a stranver, ye took Me iiot in; naked, and ye clothed Me not ‘and in prison, and Ye visited Me not Verily. 1 say unto you: Inasmuch ae ye did tt not toone of the feast of these, ye did it not to Me. ¢ And these [those who failed to do these things] shall go away into everlasting punishment. Our Philadelphia Christians fail to recognize in these woras 0! Christ a command to visit, feed, clothe and raise up even “the least (meanest) of these” wretched dwellers in Alaska and other similar streets in the city; but prefer to imitate Mrs. Jellaby, aud devote their time and attention to the inhabitants of countries thousands of miles away. We repeat, itis well that the shortcomings of our Christian professors and people generally, in respect to human wretchedness in this city, should be exposed to the world at large, amd the HERALD has exposed it in a truthful manner, strange and starting as its statements may appear. Journalism in a Business Point of View. {From the Philadelphia Sanday Mercury, July 13.) Several weeks ago it was currently reported that there was being negotiated with the Pennsyl- vania Railroad Company or its offeers an arrange- ment by means of which the leading New York daily morning newspapers could and weuld be delivered in this city a8 early as seven o’clock A.M. This is now accomplished by the Nsw Yore HERALD, Which {8 served to its Philadelphia sub- scribers almost, if not quiet, as early as any of our own morning papers. This is enterprise against which it would be as unreasonable as idle and useless to protest. In the matter of furnishing news to the public there must be freedom of competition as well as in any other business, and no one can be blamed for taking it from those who supply it most abundantly and promptly ata fair price. If, then, the New York papers, served here at the same hour daily, should interfere with the cir- culation of our own, the press of Philadelphia must strive to equal them in all the essential ele- ments of first class vehicles of news, rather than weakly complain of the rivalry as avaricious and intrusive. But in this contest Philadelphia jour- nalists must suffer the serious double disadvan- tage of @ greatly inferior amount of working pecuniary capital, and unequal facilities for ob- taining domestic and foreign news, The latter is attributable tothe geographical situation of this city; the iormer to the very small support in ad- vertising which our local press enjoys in compari son with the enormous revenne whieh that of New York receives from New Yorkers. It is thetr dif. ference in these two vital respects, and not as re- gards enterprise and intelligence, whieh makes the papers of one city more valuable and accepta- ble to the generality of readers than those of the other. The press of New York is one of its institutions. It is recognized as an element of great power in the social and business economy of that metrop- olis, It has done ag much, if not more, than any other agency to buiid that city up and make it the central seat, not only of news, but of commercial and financial influence in this hemisphere. The New Yorkers understand very weli why their journalism 18 so potential. They know that a newspaper press can no more become eminent in general excellence and eMiciency without the peenniary income required to meet its immense expenses than a huge machine can be operated without adequate motive power. ‘ ‘ They have, therefore, done all that was neces- sary to be done for their twelve or more leading datly journals, by giving them a generous and steady support—a mnunificent and unfailing reve- nue from advertising. The press in its turn has been at once enabled and encouraged to do the city of New York, with all its multiiarious and infinitely varied interests, a kind and amount of service which has repaid, mi'liong upon miliions of times over, the local sustenance it has réeeived. When will the people of other Gities—the mer- chante aod manufacturers nas At ig the business of & commumity that sustatns ite Journalism, and that justin the proportion in which it is So upheld and fostered t# @ datly press made useful and influential at home and abroad. The superiority of that of London and New York lies im the greater money power at command, and that greater money power is derived chiefy, if not almost exclusively, from payments made by advertisers. (From the Harrisburg Telegraph, July 18.) The New YoRK HERALD and other papers have made arrangements with the railroad company to deliver thetr respective papers in the city of Phila- deipnia by the time the Philadelphia morning papers are issued, The New York papers are, therefore, delivered at the same time. Since that time the New York papers have employed local re- porters in Philadelphia, 30 that they jurnish the local news of the latter clty as soon as the home papers. Below we publish a letter from the local Teporter of the Hsexa.p, giving, as he calls it, a true picture of the City of Brotherly Love, so that our readers may learn how the poor and degraded are cared for in Philadelphia. * * * [From the Zanesville (Ohio) Courier, July 16.)

(From the Pittsburg Despateh, July 17.] It we are to believe the Philadelphia correspond- ent of the NEw YORK HRRALD, there is more filth and Crime and misery to be found in the haunts of vice and poverty in that city than in any other on the American Continent, There are simi- lar sink holes and slums of sin and dens of death in most of our large cities, but they are merely crude studies of which, according to the HERALD, Philadelphia presents the Gnished article. The city, it appears, does absolutely nothing either by independent action or by co- operation with private philanthropy, to relieve the wretchedness of these purlieus of poverty and vice. This indifference may be explained by the ownership of these place: “They are the property of men in easy circumstances,” sati Mr. Long, a missionary, and apparently the only man trying to do something to remove the reproach, ‘One of the filthiest dens in this whole neighborhood ts owned by aclergyman!” Are these realities to walt upon the centennial rejoicings in 1876? {From the Lancaster (Pa.) Examiner, July 18.) The New York HeRALD, having entertained its readers with a two column article showing up the wickedness of Philadelpiila, the Press to-day has tried its hand in surpassing the Hera.p, The Quaker City must be a terrible place if the dis- closures of both papers are correct, THE HERALD AMONG THE CELESTIAL Bobi al {From the Ovid (N. Y.) Independent, July 16.] The New York HERALD, not satisfied with having its correspondents and commissioners all over the earth, has new gone to sending them up in bal- loons to “interview” the celestial bodies. One of its representatives made an ascension at Lowell, Mass., with Professor King, on Wednesday last, and gives a three and a half column account of his trip. It seems as if there was no limit to the HERALD's “get-up-and-getiveness.”” THE HERALD AND EMASCULATED THEOLOGY, (From the Holly Springs (Miss,) Reporter, July 10.] In its issue of June 20 the New York Hgraup, which is, by large odds, the ablest and most enter- prising newspaper on the American Continent, if not of the world, has a leading editorial with the above heading. It speaks at some length of the sensationalism of modern preachers in the large cities, and defines “emasculated theology” as a “theology without the theos, Christianity without Christ, religion without beauty or jorm—a mass of dry bones.” THE CHOLERA In Cincinnati, CincINNaTT, July 19, 1873, Two deaths from cholera in this city are reported to-day. In Kentucky. LOovisvitie, July 19, 1873, It is hoped the cholera has entirely disappeared in Elizabethtown aud Paducah, Ky. No cases have been reported in either plaee for the last three days, THE MORTUARY REPORT OF 8T. LOUIS. Louis, July 19, 1873. ‘The mortuary report this week gives the number of deaths at 191, being 50 more than last week. Of this number 14 are reported as having died of cholera, 69 of choera morbus. One hundred and thirty-three were under five years of age. ORUEL WIFE MUBDER A “Chivalrous” Kentuckian as a Fiend Incarnate. LOUISVILLE, July 19, 1873. James Gannon, formerly a barkeeper in this city, but latelya policeman in New Orleans, shot and killed his wife in this city to-day. His wife sep- arated from him several years since on account of ill treatment, Gannon came up from New Or- leans a month or two ago and persuaded her to come back to him. She lived with him three weeks, when she again leit him. This morning Gannon went to the house where she was staying, and, after some conversation with her, pulled a istol from his pocket, placed it against his wife’s reast and fired. She fell to the floor, when Gan- Don fired again, the bullet entering her breast the second time, killing her instantly. Gannon has been arrested. JEALOUSY AND THE KNIFE, ALBANY, N. Y., July 19, 1873, This evening Michael Manning entered the resi- dence of Peter McNamara, on Van Wert street, who was in the room with his wife. McNamara immediately sprang upon him with a@ knife, inflicted a wound in his abdomen which ma; fatal. He afterwards charged Manning wit! com- ing to his house to see his wife. McNamara was arrested. THE DOUBLE-BARRELED SHOTGUN. Close of an Oft Adjourned Debate in Kentuckey—A Man Instantly Killed. LOUISVILLE, July 19, 1873. Julius Curl, formerly Sherid of Hall county, Ky., engaged in a quarrel with A. H. Smith, a respect- able eitizen, a lew days ago, which ended in ou jooting Smith in the breast with a double- barreled shotgun, killing him instantly. An old grudge had existed between the parties. PATAL RESULT OF A BARBOOM FRACAS, The Coroner was notified yesterday to hold an inquest over the body of Thomas H. Riely, a laborer, whose skull was fractured during a scume which took place at the saloon of John Helmke, in Hudson avenue, near Navy street, Brooklyn, on Thursday morning last. Riely died at an early hour yesterday, at his residence, 308 Water street. ‘The assailant in the case is @ German bartender named Herman Tonjer, who had a fight with Riely in the barroom in question. Both men were ar- rested aud arraigned beiore Justice Walsh on Fri- day morning, and were released on bail to awalt further examination. The prisoner states that the ceased Visited the saloon and partook of a couple of glasses of beer, after which he refused to pay for the beverage and then struck him. ‘They then ex- changed several blows, and were finally separated by a police oMcer, who took them into custody. Riely, who was about thirty-two years of age, re- sided with his mother and brother. He was ad- dicted to drink, and when under its influence is said to have been ofa very quarrelsome disposi- tion. A post-mortem examination of the body will be made by Dr. Shepard, and the inquest will be held on Monday next before Coroner Whitehill. RAILROAD FIGHT IN JERSEY CITY, The citizens of Jersey City, who reside in Ply. month or Mercer street, as it formerly was called, are excited In consequence of inroads made upon the street, near their houses, to the great detri- ment of their property. The railroad company have encumbered the place with rails, lumber, &c., and are now about to absorb permanently a portion thereof with their new depot.
