Cape Haytien, Jund 1.—The tor¬ pedo boat Porter arrived at Mole St. Nicholas at 1 o’clock this morn¬ ing with dispatches for Washing¬ ton. The following story of the bombardment of Santiago deCuba, the refuge of Cervera and the Span¬ ish fleet,was obtained at the Mole : The American squadron augment¬ ed by the torpedo boat Porter, the auxiliary cruisers St. Paul and the protected cruiser New Orleans, approached the entrance to the har¬ bor atSantiago at about 12 :^o p. m., the Iowa leading. Inside the en¬ trance to the harbor was seen one of the warships of Cervera’s fleet, 5tnpped ior act !°n. j As the American fleet i came near the New Orleans was detached and steamed forward ahead of the Iowa, | T $ o”thtr Tf Shfs u afreet' / r j repae the <e o er two wo sups .reo , m g their fire at the battery on the Punta Gorda, within the narbor and to westward of the position oc- cupied "by the Spanish ships. The lattcr replied to the fire and immediately became a target f tor an the American shi P s engaged in the ! battle. She retired behind a protecting headland and was not seen again engagement 1 he Iowa, directed b\ Captain “Fighting Bob” Evans; the Massa- chusetts, Captain F.J.Higginson; Texas, Captain J. W.

Folger, kept up their terrific fire against the Morro, Socana and Punta Gorda forts for two hours, their projectiles of enomous size doing tremendous damages to the defenses of the harbor. The masonry on Socapa and Morro w r as battered almost into dust, the forms of Spanish artillery¬ men and infantry could be plainly seen flying to safety behind the neighboring hills. The auxiliary cruiser which join¬ ed Schley’s fleet just before the bat¬ tle took place was hit by shells from the forts, and it is thought she was seriously damaged. After seeking the protection of a jutting headland, the Spanish war ships continued to fire projectiles over the hills toward the fleet, but they had no range, not even direct¬ ion to their shots, for the shells fell helplessly into the sea. That the number of killed on the Spanish side is enormous no one doubts, for time and again the American shell hit the batteries squarely and amid the flying ma- sonry and dismantled guns the forms of men were descried. The damage done to the Ameri- j can fleet cannot be learned, but it is not thought any person was kill- —if, indeed, any one was wound- ed. I A Narrow Escape.

As had been pre¬ viously noted, the corner stone of the new court house was tq be laid with Masonic honors, and quite a large gathering of Habersham’s people turned out to see and to be seen, (notably the candidates.) Before noon the Masons gather¬ ed at Judge Hill’s office and organ¬ ized with Dr. Oslin of Gainesville, as grand master; Mr. Smith, grand warden; C. L. Bass, senior war¬ den; Judge Gober of Marietta, ju¬ nior warden; C. W. Grant, grand secretary; and W. D. Hill, treas¬ urer. From the ordinary’s office they marched to the court house where the impressive services of laying corner stores was gone through with and the following ar tides deposited in a specially con¬ structed metal box made for the oc¬ casion : Directory of county offi¬ cers, Judge Superior Court and So- Heitor General; short history of the HfeofW. D. Hill; photographs of W. D. Hill and wife; Jos. A. Erwin, clerk Superior Court, E. P. West, J. L. York and wife, Maud and Tott West, F. L. Asbu- Sarah E Addison Johnson Reynolds, F. P.

Nix’s children, three copies of the Mt. Airy Protectionist. After the articles had been placed in the box and sealed it was placed in the southeast corner of the build¬ ing, and a tablet of marble placed on the outside with the names of the county officers, contractors, architects, county commissioners and others who had in any way been connected with the erection of the new building. The Clarkesville lodge entertain¬ ed visiting masons at the Spencer House at dinner. After dinner Dr. Oslin addressed the people on masonry from the Mountain View piazza, as also did Chas. Bass, Judge Gober and Hon. Howard Thompson made short speeches. Those who attended speak in high praise of the good order main¬ tained and the pleasant day spent, and we must judge that all went away happy. The court house when completed will be a handsome and convenient building, and the removal to the present site adds greatly to its con¬ venience and beauty. Judge Hill has changed the roof of the building from tin to slate, and doubled the floors, and put a water table of stone around the building at a cost f $716, which no doubt is well spent; the contract price is $13,300 for the erection of the building and equipping it, with the addition of the $716 as above stated, the lot and extras for fixing it up will run the whole up to prob¬ ably $18000.

A Scientist Carried them to Ad¬ miral Dewey in a Newly Laundered Shirt. William Doherty, an ornitholo¬ gist and entomologist who in the interest of science has traversed the four quarters of the globe and has achieved a reputation as far reach¬ ing as his travels, recently returned from the Philippine islands by way of Hongkong and San Francisco to visit his parents in Mov nt Auburn, in Cincinnati. His latest dis¬ tinction was in successfully pass¬ ing the Spanish customs officers at Manilla, with complete plans of the city, the harbor, the fortifica¬ tions and minute details of their armament, from Consul General Williams to Admiral George Dew¬ ey. It was a dangerous proceed¬ ing, but Mr. Doherty carried it to success. The plans and drawings were concealed in a newly lander- ed shirt, which was folded, pinned up in the usual style and put with other clothing in his trunk. Ar¬ riving at Hongkong early in April, he delivered the supremely impor¬ tant papers to Admiral Dewey on the Olympia Mr. Doherty is a modest man and deprecates notoriety and therefore had little to say on the subject except to state the bare facts. He first heard of Admiral Dewey’s great victory when he landed in the United States a few days ago. He is the son of James X. Doherty of Cincinnati, who has been a street railway manager and who has held many county and city offices. An Imaginary Line of Freedom. When the working poor are paid in return for their labor only as much money as will buy them the necessaries of life, their condition is identical with that of the slave, who received those necessaries at first hand. The former we- cail “freeman” and the latter “slave,” but the difference is imaginary only. —John Adams.—N e w Yorfc Journal,
