Th* Prohibitionists made conaidarable
gains in the Connecticut election, but not
enough to produce any marked result up-
on either of the two leading political par
ties.
ltzDiurn has not backed down from bis
assertion that Sumner told him that floar
was opposed to the Civil Rights bill. On
the contrary he refers to a witness, who,
bo says, will substantiate his assertion.
A question of veracity is involved. The
controversy does not appear to havo made
many changes of votes.
Tin Mississippi Legislature has at last
adjourned. The prioipal acts passed by
it were the following : Ttao establishment
of a central board to equalize taxation
the repoal of tbo Supply Lien law, and of
the next November Funding aot; and a
bill providing that no more liquoi
censos shall bo granted nnloss upon the
recommendation of a majority of residents
over eighteen yoars of ago.
Tot New York Tribune publishes a
npooch which Senator Sumner preparod
in March, 1871, whon bin disaffection with
tho Administration began to be manifest,
but which speech he was then dissuaded
from delivering. Wo lmvo not road tho
speech. Tho propriety of its publication
at this time Is very questionable. Tho
JJerald says of it, that “it discloses tho
hurt pride, tho wounded vanity, tho
shocked egotism of . tho Massachusetts
Honator rather than his riper sonso
A Republican writes from Knloigh to
the Now York Time*, that his party in
North Carolina will not hold a Stato Con
vention for the nomination of candidates,
booanso “tho question of civil rights
wonld no doubt bo introduced, and any
notion tho convention might take upon it
would be hurtful at this time." lie adds
that the local candidates of tho party will
be allowed to make their fights upon iHtns
that may ho peculiar to tho different conn
ties. Tho Wilmington Journal says that
the moaning of this is that in wliito
ties tho Radical party will fake tho white
line, and in colored counties they will
take tho black linn. Tho hesitation of tho
North Carolinn Republicans in taking a
position upon this civil rights issue goes
to confirm (ho opinion exprossod that it
must injnrn the party, however decided.
Mam. ADVictcs from Sari Domingo to tho
110th tilt, report that the Rritish Consul at
Port-au-J’rince lmd visited Hsu Domingo
with propositions for a treaty with tho
Haytion Government. Among tho condi
tions of tho treaty are said to bo the ces
sion to Hayti of disputed frontier terri
tory, and the iinnuliuout of (lie Samaria
J3ay Convention with citi/.ons of tho Uni
ted States. On tho acceptance of thoso
conditions by tho Dominican Oovnrnniont,
Hayti or Kuglnml was to lend it a consid
erable sum, payable at eonvenicnco mid
without iutoreat. This measure caused
great anxiety throughout tho island, and
tho Provisional Government had declared
tho Baniann Bay Convention null and void.
Tho special commission of the Samaiin
Company protested agaiust this action as
illegal and demanded arbitration. Mean
time, tho company will ask protection of
tho United States against any violonoo on
the part of the Dominican authorities.

iJanrrr.- If you have any doubt as to

Bettor practice self-denial than do that
about the right or wrong of which you
have tbo slightest doubt. A good rule is,
novor to do anything that you aro not ab-
Holntely certain is right. Then, if yon
mako u mistake, the honesty of your pur
pose Mill pollute it.

u citizen of Philadelphia. Hu is about
fifty yoars of ago; tall, full-bearded, mul
a most gonial aud cultivated gentleman,
lie graduated at Princeton College, and
afterwards studied at Heidelberg, Munich
nud Paris. He is said to be ouo of tho
most aocouiplishod of American linguists,
as he is certainly the most quaint of our

captain of (lie steamer Panther, the ves
sel which brought tho intelligence to St.
John's :
On the ltd Inst, tho Panther was in
long. 51 dog., 15 min.; west hit. 50 deg.,
22 min. North, on her return to St.
John's. Tho Lookout reported a steamer
apparently moving only under sail. As
we approached her, it was discovered that
shn had her 11 tgs at half masts. Suhao-
quoutly ami after signaling her, 1 oidercd
n boat to be luworcd, and wont ou board
mysolf, when 1 discovered her to bo the
steamor Tigress of l'olatis fame.
Her captain nnd chief ofllcors were on
deck whou I got on hoard. 1 was then in
formed that ou April 2d, ut two o'clock in
tho afternoon, tho vessel was shuken all
over by the tnrrifio explosion of tho boil
er, which created groat terror and cuufu-
sion, as tho oaeapeit steam completely ou-
velopoil ovory compartment below. In
oousoqiionce, all steam facilities h.ul boon
destroyed, nnd they had then boon under
sail against a hoad-witnl for twenty-four
hours. When 1 reached the duck of the
TigrosH, I observed that a number of m m
wore engaged on carpenters work, mak
ing up aud nailing together a number of
rough pitiewuod boxes. 1 asked the com-

they were designed for
bodies uf the unfortunate men who had
boon lulled by tho accident on tho day of
tho explosion. Said tlm captain of tho Ti-
gross to tuo: “1'ho wontlior was dreadful

a heavy swoll on. A number of tho
men bud gone below after watch,
aud had turned in on top of the

isod to report the dis inter immediately on j
our arrival. I did not ascertain tho {
names of tho men, as all the otlicers of !
tho Tigross appeared to bo in great grief,
aud could give but fow particulars.
Tbo dispatch farther says siuco tho
captain's statement was made yesterday,
it was learned that the Tigross had ar
