Curtis in Chicago Record.) | Wandering about the post (Fort. | rdss Monroe) is a titanic negro, six feet tall and of like proportions. His name is Americus Johnson, aud he is a private in the Tenth regular cavalry. This ‘'Buffalo,’’ as the colored soldiers of the army are fa- miliarly called, ‘sought the bubble reputation at the cannon’s mouth’’ at El Caney, and singlehanded suc- ceeded in overcoming a squad of the enemy and capturing six-pound rapid fire guo; shot three Spaniards, knocked four senseless with the butt of his carbine, and the rest ran away in terror. Jolnson was twice wound- ed, one ball passing through his left shoulder and another through his left Jeg, but neither remained in his body, ann no bones were broken. He speaks of his wounds contemptously “pin holes.”’ Chey are healing rapidly and he will soon be able to returo to his home in Texas and re- ceive the honors due the brave. He has already received » great deal, and I grieve to relate that glory and admiration are confusing Johnson's memory. He is becoming somewhat inaccurate snd inconsistent in his statements. He sils all day long un- der the shade of a tree clad in his pink pajamas, like the sultan of Sene- gambia and relates the story of his achievements over and over again to tbrongs of colored people and strag- gling whites, who staud with both their ears and mouths wide open, paralyzed with awe. Like the editors of the yellow journals, Mr. Jobnson has discovered that the public taste jand he does his best gratify demands something hot and bloody, thet craving. By the time he gets to Texas Johnson will have captured an entire battery; perhaps captured Morro itself. SERIOUS ARGE, A Doctor Near Fulton in Trouble, His Friends Believe Him Innocent, Fulton Leader, July 21.) We have been informed by a relia- ble party that Dr. J. E, Simmons, the leading physician of Dukedom, was arrested there today on a charge of having attempted to ravish the wife of Rufus Reed who lives south of that place. Our informant says he saw the warrant served and that Simmons gave bond for his appear- ance, He says that the charge is that Simmons made the attempt Tuesday afternoon, That Mrs. Reed did not inform her husband wuntil sev- eral hours afterwards. When he learned of the matter he secured a warrant but the doctor refused to come over on Tennessee soil until to- day. Another party who left Duke- dom before the warrant was served says his understanding of the matter is that at a picnic Tuesday Simmons is accused of making indecent pro- posals to the woman, A bogus call was sent to the doctor to come to a house in Tennessee, but he refused to come over until he got ready to sur- render. The trial comes up next Saturday. Dr. Simmons is well known and his friends think he can easily clear himself. WHEN WE SAY BARGAINS WE MEAN FIRST-CLASS GOODS AT LOW PRICES Lawns.

She hopes for no suceesses to turn the tide in her favor, The Queen and her cabinet know better than any one else that the prolonga- tion of the war can but bring fresh disasters and additional disgrace to the Spavish arms. But the condi~ tion of affairs at home is such that proposals of peace cannot bow be made without starting a revolution which would probably end the rule of the Queen Regent and her son. Just as soon as the Queen feels she is able “to cope with any uprisings from the Carlists or other disaffected factions, she will take the initiative peace and not until in sueing for then. OUR CUBAN ALLIES. It is quite probable that the fric- tion between the Cuban insurgents and the American troops has been exaggerated far as its vonse- quences are concerned; and it is quite improbable that the guns of the American arniy will ever be trained on our Cuban allies. There is no doubt, that the Cuban insurgents are incapa- ble of se.f-government, or at least of governing others. Long bloody warfare, of gross outrages, of suffering and of hardships have hardened their natures so thst now they almost as cruel and as bloodthirsty as their ancient foes the Spaniards. That their first de- sire should be for revenge is not at all surprising. Indeed, it would have been remarkable had they not ed the spirit that they have as however, but years of are manife exhibited during the past few days. defenseless old men, women and chil- dren, the despoiler of their wives and daughters, the plunderer of their homes and the personification of all that is murderous and fiendish.
