THE CUBAN PATRIOTS, After the resolutions had been read, accepted and adopted, a delegate, who failed to announce his name, made a stirring speech in favor of the adoption of a resolve ecenising and sympa- thizing with the struggling patriots of Cuba.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb 3, 1874. It is useless to deny that, white the present ad- ministration fails to satisfy the democratic party, the nomination of A. K. McClure causes almost equal dissatisfaction. A large number of voters still insist that Mr. McClure was forced upon the democratic party by unconstitutional action and by gag law; that he does not represent the spirit or the prog- Tess of local democracy, and that his election will in no wise promote its interests. So exceedingly large is the number of democrats comprehended mthe above group that Mr. McClure went all the way to Frankiord last night sim- ply to address the “bolters,’ whose pendent ‘votes both republicans and democr ats are anxious to make use of for their own advantage. ‘The meeting was a very quiet and ordinary one, and failed to elicit any very marked enthusiasm. Another very important gathering was held last night in the Twentieth ward, composed entirely of ns for use tn this | | cipally of negroes and Chinamen, with only three | democrats, who unanimously retused to vote in | favor of the nominee (Mr. McClure). It is said that fully 10,000 men tavor their action, and tnat | unless a straight-out democrat is nominated the greater part of these votes will remain neutral.

Chanciag to meet three of their most poaens representa- tives jeri , 1 asked them whether they would en- gorse Mr. y icClure, “No,” gaid they. ‘we will either cast our voice | for Stokely, or else we will not vote at all.”” Stokely’s chances a plexed and involved. Even Mr. Forney, who was promi- nent in the McClure meeting the other night, nas | apparently endorsed Mr, Stokley as follows :— | William 8. Stokely, the republican candidate for Mayor, rans with no such licavy weight as the representative of the party that sympathized with the ,rebellion, or as the comate of Oakey Hall, Tweed, Sweeny and Fisk. He presents a clean bill of health, an unspotted private char- acter and an unstained public record. ‘The architect of his own fortunes; one of the beople from the start; idvuti- fled with all our great interests; a tulthful member of | Councils; a devoted servant of the people during the got up a caucus of his own, andthe result was the | choice of a rival delegation, headed by the redoubt- able Gallagher himself. He was early in the hall and took a prominent seat on the platiorm, and throughout the proceedings he proved himsell to be a8 much of a disturping element in the Connecticut democracy as Ben Butler is in the Tanks of the republican party of Massachusetts. Tne trouble began in the selection of a Committee of Credentials, Mr. Gallagher objecting to the ap- | ae of Mr. Sperry ol this city, for the reason hat he wis at the head of a delegation which was Eres to him and the other regular delegates. ‘The coo} assumption of Mr. Gallagher, as the leader oi the “regular!” smile among the audience, ail of whom were familiar with the position he occupied in the Convention. After considerable discussion of the matter, during which Mr, Gallagher tried in vain to be recognized by the chair, the difficulty was overcome by the appoint- ment of Mr. Comertord, of Waterbury, on the com- mittee, a gentleman who was passably acceptable to both of the New Haven delegations. The com- mittee retired to consider tne perplexing and com- Plicated question, and, pending their absence, the Convention went ahead with the business in hand just tne same as if everything was serene and fovely. One of the delegates in the pack part of the hali—Mayor Thomas Waller, of New Loudon— made a motion to RENOMINATE THE ENTIRE STATE TICKET. Mr. Clark, the chairman of the Convention, took the responsibility of dividing the motion, and only submitted for consideration the nomination of Mr. Ingersoll for Governor. Of course, the nomination was carried, and when it was so declared one of the delegates moved a reconsideration ol the vote, | 4 for the reason that the Committee on Credentials | had not reported, and, therelore, everything was irregular and out of order. The Chair here in- jJormed the delegate that it didn’t make any differ- ence, and he wouldn’t put any such motion. Mr. Waller, wno made the original motion, now be- came offended because Mr. Clark had divided his motion, and, with others, insisted that the Chair put the motion exactly as it was submitted. The presiding officer evidently disliked to submit to | the wishes of the delegates; but tinally he yielded and put the question as it was submitted, and all of the present State officers were then renom- nated amid cheers, coujusion and pandemonium generally, THE CANDIDATES thus nominated are as tollows:— For Governor—Charies R. Ingersoll. * ss ig JAeutenant Governor—George G. Sill, of Hart- ford. For Secretary of State~ Marvin H. Sanger, of Can- terbury. Treasurer—William E. Raymond, of New Canaan. For Comptroller—A\ired R. Goodrich, of Vernon. GOVERNOR INGERSOLL ACCEPTS. A committee having intormed him of the action of the Convention, the Governor came in and ac- cepted the compliment and honor in a brief speech, His reception was very warm, and his ac- ‘ceptance was followed by a round of cheering. uring the momentary intervals which elapsed Ouring the proceedings of the Convention there ‘Were calls for various gentlemen to address the | delegates, They were particularly anxious to hear Mayor Wailer, of New London, but that gentieman rsistently and successtully refused to advance 18 political views, Then there were calls for Mr. Gallagher, but the Chairman whispered in his ear that he had better keep silent and clear out—that he Was all right now, but if he made a speech he Would “put his foot in it.” Gallagher Kept silent and cleared out.

He does not ask popular support on his name, nor advertise tor votes through his tamily con- nections. The day for such arguments has passed.

Since Mr. Stokely’s administration began every favo bank and every policy shop in town has bern closed, and this alone Will serve as a@ powerful ar- gument during tne campaign. The public press, irrespective of party, seem al- most unanimously in favor of Stokely. To-day the Evening Telegraph, whose political sentiments hitherto have been considered as strictly neutral, speaks as follows :— Colonel McClure starts out upon the race for the office of Chief Magistrate ot Philadelphia with a claim that is in iself impudent. He assumes to be the candidate of the delegation, provoked a quiet | Constitutional retorm party, and he is nothing of the | In fact there 1s no such organization in existence, t and but ab and his demand to be considered its candidate is Unprofitable trick.

Even Colonel McClure has not Attempted to assail his magnificent record, nor hus McClure’s seconder, Forney, said a word against bim, and solely because they could not. + This unexpected sentiment on the part of the journal above referred to is in the main true. Mr. between the | McOlure and his constituents have thus tar re- trained from any personal condemnation of Mr. Stokely or his administration. It 1s certain, how- ever, that Mr. McClure isexceedingly popular and that he will poll an exceedingly large vote. It is samewhat remarkable to notice with what haste and strength he has plunged into the hot contest and the ease with which he has marshalled all his forces. Large public meetings are announced for the future, and thus excitedly opens the campaign. W.

Startling Rumors in Havana—The Spanish Press on the Release of the Virginius Prisoners—An Important Arrest. Havana, Jan, 28, 1874. For some time past the district of Tr:nidad, one of the most productive portions of the Cinco Villas, has remained untouched by the ravages of the Cuban war, and the particulars of a recent attack and burning of two sugar plantations in that vicinity which have reached us prove the extent of the in- surrection and the present activity of its partisans. From the account published in the Diartode la Marina it appears that the plantations known as “Mayaguara” and “Lajas’’ were attacked on the night of the 20th by a band of rebels, said to num- ber some thirty-five or forty men, composed prin- or four whites among them. ‘his is, however, the usual description given of the tnsurgent forces by the Spaniards and cannot be relied on. ‘The sur- prise was complete and the INSURGENTS RANSACKED THE PLACE, securing arms, ammunition, clothes and pro- visions without let or hindrance, Fire was set to 400 hogsheads of sugar destroyed. On the other plantation they set fire to the engine house and burned up four cane fields, when they were driven off by the arrival of a small force, which fired upon them. The insurgents also tied together and carried off with them several of the white iree laborers, and so completely dispersed the negroes that only three were afterwards found. ber of seasons past no incident of such a nature | had taken place in this jurisdiction, and attributes the recent act to the WANT OF THE USUAL GUARD | over the valley of Trinidad. While disciaiming any intention of exciting alarm, the journal men- tioned considers that this movement of the insur- gents should be taken as ¢ warning, and points to it as a proof of the correctness of its opinions Tejative to the course to be pursued in putting an end to the war. It says:— In one of the estates 400 hogsheads of sugar and the purging house were destroyed, representing a value of $24,000, paner, at $90 per hogshead. It the owner of this estate bad becn asked for $13,000 to give to the govern- ment, in erder to collect the elements and means neces sary ‘for the conclusion of the war, he would have thought by giving it that he’ was damaging his interests, but really would have made a good business, The only way, according to the Diario, for the Spaniards to save the situatton, 1s to give up all their invome and profits, reserving only what is absolutely necessary to live on, and although in eneral this would appear an enormous sacrifice | 4 is really 8 good commercial calculation, presumes | that paper. “Two years more of war would be sufficient,” to remedy, while two years of peace would suffice for all the nations wno now withdraw irom us their credit to turn their eyes again to Cuba,” and it then asks Where has the patriotic enthusiasm of two months ago gone to—that enthusiasm which thrilled trom Cape Sait ntonio to Punta Matsi, repeating the sacred cry of #ul- Vation for Spanish Cuba, which lay in “Men and money to finish the war, now of never.” Has it died out, or disappeared like a flash of lizhtning ina tropical tém- Dosti Was it one of those ignes jafu which shine in grave: yards over corrupting bodies?’ * * * Have we allowed public enthusiasm to evaporate—that enthusiasm which, born on the 4th of Novem took such @ valiant and Spanish torm during the grave QUESTION OF THR vIRGINIUS? The Diario concludes its appegl as follows:— We have still the same faith as before in our immedi- ate triumph; but there are moments in which we are overwhelmed by the idea that we do not wish to have this mutual determination, then our enthusiasm is con- verted into holy wrath, because the least vacillation ap- pears to us a crime of high treason. The recent occur- Tences on the plantations Mayaguara and Lajas must be taken asa warning and attended to. The brave com- manaing General of the Eastern Department aud che chiet officers ask ns for MORE MEN AND MONEY to prevent the insurgents troin concentrating and attack- ing our towns and troops when they think that by mere force of numbers they can conquer us. The worthy General (Portilla) who has pacified the Cinco Villas and inspired so much confidence Spaniards also asks us for men and money to finish, in a short ume, an enemy who moves within a contracted 1imit and should be attacked on all sides at once if he is to be driven back to the other side of the frocha, ‘rhe foregoing is a fair picture of the state of affairs in the interior of the island, painted by the most conservative journal of this island, a journal that always makes efforts to hide the truth, but occasionally, pusned by the force of circumstances, | gives us a slight idea of the traditional Spanisn | characteristics, and indirectly corroborates facts stated by foreign correspondents. The remainder of the Diario article is made up of good counsel which is not likely to be tollowed. It says:— Fewer offers aud more disinterestedness, fewer words and more deeds are what Cuba needs to saye her. We should not content ourselves by offering the treasury what we do not give, nor take away trom it what we in duty bound ougnt to give. Let us limit ourselves to offering only what we can give. and religiously keep our romse. We have lost and are losing precious time. Let us once again repeat, “The evil is grave and the remedy urgeni—now of never !” The highest and innermost circles in this city are also in a ferment on account of numbers of stories ireely circulated in this city in regard to | affairs in the interior of the island, and reported SUCCESSES OF THE INSURGENTS in the Central and Eastern departments. Nothing positive or reliable, however, can ve ascertained, the Havana journals giving only indirect hints that matters are not “pleasant.” Within the past lew days the report has veen spread from mouth to mouth that Colonel Armifan, commanding the military line of the Baga, had been assassinated by his own troops, and that an entire battalion guard- ing this line bad gone over to the insurgents. Again, it 1s rumored about that the government troops had suffered severely iu the jurisdiction of Manzanillo, aud even that the last named city had been atracked and captured by the insurgents. While I am writing a /adorante steps in and asks if | had heard of the attack, by the insurgents, on Santiago de Cuba. But I taven’t, nor do i believe that yttung of the kind has taken place, nor can any credit be given to numerous otuer alarming ru- mors current for the week past and actively circu- lated. However, likely enough tue Spaniards hive suffered in the interior, though to what ex- tent it is at present, without any reliable informa- tion at hand, difMicuit to say. ‘The Diario, in a recent issue, has an article un- der the titie of What Will the Government at Washington Say?” in regard to the SURVIVING PRISONERS OF THE VIRGINIUS, and indignantly asks if it is true that such socie- ties as the Cuban League and the Friends of Cuba meet publicly for the purpose of conspiring against Spain, It adds:— It they labor continually to deprive Spain of Cuba, and it it be true that they collect men and money to aid the rebels in this island. then it is time thai the Washington government consents that natives and_tor- elgners may conspire openly aguinst Spain and within the territory of the United’ States, and that from that country they can send out, without disguise, men, arms, ammunition, provisions and clothing to the insur: gents of the island. 7 ‘This tolerance the Diario declares contrary to the principles of international law, and directly | against the provisions of 1795, so often and em- | phatically quoted by the United States. 1t further complains that the United States government re- | leased the surviving prisoners of the Virginius, | whom it should have punished, in accordance with the Washington protocol, if it was proved they were really expeditionists and that these prison- | ees been engaged in a War against Spain, and adds :— Does the government of the United States assume the Tesponsibility of all the acts of agyression against Spain which these prisoners m: Not the Spanish government has the ¢laims much more just than thove ot ribunal, and it is i ight of presenting United states its duty to do so. pinion ot all Kurope is in favor ot spain matter, and she may rest assured that in any eve arbitration her clatins would be allowed. ‘The Chief of Police of this city, Coionel Sanchez, who hus recently rendered such good service in | the discovery of the GIGANTIC SCHEME OF COUNTERFEITING | vhe currency of this island and arrest of the offenders, has made another important arrest and ot no jess & person than Don Miguel Valero, the superintendent of tne lottery here.

Ladies have “enlisted for the war,” and if the two or three remaining dealers continue unrepentant they will organize a regular patrol of half a dozen or so to visit the saloons at any hour and dissuade People from drinking, They can furnish a guard for each day, and not employ any ofthem more than once in two weeks.

Many years ago I tried it in several towns in Massacliusetts and New Hampshire. Per- haps in not one of them has rum ever re- gained its old dominion, but the viccory was lar from complete. The troubie is that in New England there is a lack of heat. The people have good heads, but poor stomachs. They think weil, but they can’t digast, and so there is no moral Jervor.

If the women now in the fleld in your State could realize how the whole nation is watching them—if they could realize how much depends upon their success—nothing would daunt them.

THEFT AND ARSON. pas ER Charges of Arson Against James Slavin Sustained—He Is Committed to Await Trial. SouTH NoRWALK, Conn., Feb. 3, 1874. So great a fire as that of Sunday morning last, especially in view of the circumstances, has pro- duced excitement in this usually quiet community. It was natural, therefore, that the public should Manifest the greatest eagerness to learn what might be the result of an investigation into the causes which led to that calamity, inasmuch as known to many in tie city. Directly aiter the fire James Slavin, as already stated in the HERALD, was arrested as the guilty one, on probable cause I knew | being brought forward to sustain the action of the authorities. This morning he was the observed of all observers in the City Council chamber, where Judge Craw held court. On the prisoner, at the time of his arrest, was found a knife, sworn to have been stolen just before the fire from the stable watchman, John Reguey, and a large number of martingales, straps, ‘&c., cut from harness belong: ing to S.H. Hopkins and others, In addition a coat, silk kerchiel, silver plated caster, botties, napkin, &c., aud bottie of brandy, the property of Colonel F. ¥. Stedman, of the Old Well Hotel, were found on Sunday in a ay loit at the rear of Lucas’ Hotel, Main street, where the prisoner had ob- tained temporary lodgings and where he had con- veyed the goods, in hope of disposing of them to Is Own advantage. ‘The examination was con- | ducted by Mr, Ammi Giddings, City Attorney, and many witnesses were summoned whose evidence will, as is thought, unmistakably sustain the prose- cution’s scheme ol action. At the opening of the | trial Slavin pleaded not guiity and denied every ‘the equivocal manner | explain his where- | | abouts before and after the fire will go @ long way | B charge made against him, in which he endeavored to toward fastening the crime where it would appear | vo belong. ‘The prisoner was fined for theft, sentenced to | thirty days in jail tor burglary, and ior ar-on he | was bound over for triui at tae February term of the Superior Court. Fathng to obtain # bond of $1,000 he was conveyed to safe quarters in the jail at'Bridgeport. Until within a period of three years arson, like murder, has been held as an unbailable oifence in this State. Its punishment is yet among the most severe known to our code, UNITED STATES SENATORS ELECTED IN MISSISSIPPI.

In | 3 SAVINGS BANKS IN JERSEY, | rmportant Action of the Legislature. | AlLarge Number of the Savings Institutions Declared Irresponmble by Executive;Proc- lamation—Their Charters Null and Void, | Atmong the bilis just introduced in the New Jersey Legislature 18 one that will compel the core Porations of tue State to attend more carefully to their interests, It probivits the corporations named th the Governor's recent proclamation from bringing suits in the courts of the State until they Shall have renewed their charters. That this is @ very serious matter tor many of these corpor tions will be evident from the perusal of the fol- lowing potts:—An act was passed last session pro- | Viding for the declaring and making known certain Jaws and joint resolutions that had become in- Operative and void. Under that act the Governor has just issued a proclamation setting lorta the in- ability of all the institutions mentioned below to | transact business legally. By virtue of a law | Passed in 1858 every bill passed of a private | Character is subject to an assessment that must | be paid to the Secretary of State. One section of | that act provided that no private bil should be enrolled in the omMce of the Secretary | Of State until such assessment had been paid, and consequently, though the bill had passed both | Houses of the Legisiature and been signed by the | Governor, it would become void. Benevolent in. | stitutions und agricultural societies were only exempted. By a supplement to the act, passed in 1859, boa for such payment W4s limited to the 1st of July. Many of the institutions now banned by the | Executive proclamation, especially savings banks, | wil find their clatm to the character of ‘bene vo- lent” fluag to the winds, In the first section of the act of 1858 it is expressly provided that on every act incorporating a bank an assess- | ment of $1 per $1,009 on the largest amount of | capital authorized shall be levie The language | of the statate is:—“Ou every act incorporating or chartering, or renewing or extending the cor- porate puwers of any bank the sum of $1 per $1,000 on the largest amount of capital authorized and on every supplement thereto, except sucn | a8 provide for an increase of capital, the sum of $25.” Through carelessness or con- tempt a large number of sévings banks agave neglected to comply with the requirements Ol the law. As before stated, they ignored the As- | Sessment act, in the hope of sustaining their claim | of being benevolent institutions, Sound judicial opinion controverts this claim, and the banks are, by their neglect, made the irresponsible trustees of their depositors’ money. There are seventy-six of these institutions scattered through the State which are more or less affected by tne proclama- | tion. The inviting opportunity is offered the cor- | porattons, as corporations, to evade their respon- sibilities. The tollowing is a complete list of the banks affected by the iaw and included in the Governor's proclamation :— SAVINGS BANKS.
