Those County ISonds. <J',i the Editor of tho IIomk .Journal : 1 noticed an editorial in the col¬ umns of your paper some time since in which you said there was consider¬ able demand for the Lincoln county bonds, as recommended by the last grand jury. Of course any one who Jjas money to invest would do well to invest tints, as our county is self sustaining and lias about as good financial record as any county in the State, but we find that a great many of onr citizens object to the bonds being issued in denominations of live hundred dollars. They argue that we have but few men in our county who have a surplus of $500, while we have a great many with fifty or one hundred dollars which they couI t spare from their business and would be glad to avail themselves of this safe investment. = •n The people of this county claim to favor equal rights to all and special privileges to none, l et us practice what we preach.

LATEST WAR HEWS. American Fleets Destroy Fortii ca¬ tions at Santiago, Oapp, Haytibk, June 7.—The fight in and before the vicinity Santiago de Cuba continued tlte greater nearly part of o’clock.* yesterday, from 7:45 until 11 | Ten of the American warships maintained a steady and carefully ' directed lire against El Morro castle and the batteries' at Punta Gorda, Socapa and Oincoreales, in addition to bombarding the Spanish fleet in the harbor. It appears, from t he best informa¬ tion obtainable at this place, the cable station connecting with Santiago .de Cuba, that immense damage was in¬ flicted on the enemy. The S: uish batteries are under¬ stood to nave been virtually silenced and lit Morro and the fortifications at Socapa and Punta Gorda are re¬ ported to have been demolished by the three hours’ uninterrupted fleet. ham¬ mering of the American said 'fhe American -attack is next to have been specially directed against Agnadores. a small coast town a little to the east of the entrance of Santiago bay. admiral, The idea of the American it appears, was to land troops and seige guns there, after reducing the defenses of the place, and thence make a close assault- upon Santiago, which, in vnav of the present, condition of its fortifications, may be expected to yield very soon after the beginning of such an attack. Heavy cannonading was midday opened upon Agnadores at about yesterday. received The latest advices here, from Spanish sources, do not indicate the duration of the fire, or whether American troops and seige gnus were Mutually landed information at Agnadores, obtainable, but, it from the. cannot be doubted that the net result of Monday’s fighting was extremely disastrous to Spanish defenses. it, is also understood here that the Cuban troops maintained, through¬ out the greater part'- of yesterday, ami an attack by land on Santiago, the Spanish reports say the wounded. ganison lost heavily The military in killed commander and of Santi¬ ago do Cuba acknowledges the fol¬ lowing were wounded among the land forces: Colonel Ordonez, Cap¬ tain Sanchez, Lieutenant Yrizar, of the artillery, and Perez and Garcia, both Spanish,-officers, whose rank is not: mentiqfied. The Spaniards also admit the joss of twenty-one infantry soldiers se veryly wounded and say one soldier w.>S killed. But it is believed that, the losses of Spaniards were much more heavy. In the naval force the Spaniards say that the officer who was second in command of the partly dismantled Spanish cruiser Reina Mercedes and five sailors and an ensign were killed. The Spanish sailors wounded, it is asserted, number sixteen men. American Throughout the engagement and no ship was hit no Amer¬ ican was injured The Spaniards acknowledge that a great deal of damage was inflicted on tlie Spanish cruiser Reina Mercedes, and they say Morro castle shows great, gaping the breaches day, in it its walls. Later in appears, a effected landing of American Diaquira, troops distance was near some east of Agnadores, and near the rail¬ road station connecting with Santiago. Later, an engagement, took place between the American forces and a column of Spanish troops, which had been sent against the landing party. The accounts of the battle obtain¬ able here, being forth from Spanish result, sources, and, do not set the therefore it is inferred that the Americans were victorious, and that is the belief which prevails here. Cape There is a report current at ITaytie ii that the first-class armored Spanish c ruber Marie Teresa was sunk yesterday by the tire of the American ships. It is said that only 500 American troops were landed at Daiquiri, or possibly at Agnadores, the two places being received seemingly confused in the re¬ ports here. It seems to be admitted the fire of the American soldiers was so effective that the Spaniards were compelled to flee from the fortifications they • were defending. According to the newspapers, an Ohio husband became the happy father of seven children not long ago. j Or the seven all lived but one. It is to be hoped he laid in a supply of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, whooping the only sure cure for croup, cough, colds and coughs, and so in¬ sured liis children against these dis¬ eases.
