OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY We have a lot of jurenile books for the Holidays waiting notice such a list as will make any boy's eyes "pop out till you could knock them off with a stick." We shall tell the other boys what we think about the books, and our booksellers will tell them through the advertising columns of the State Journal where the books may be had. The Cincinnati papers have gone to work in good earnest to find a better name for their "Cincinnati Hotel," since the State Journal took the matter up. The Enquirer suggests "Boar's Head Inn" as both appropriate and classical. (It would give Andrews a chance, also, to call, his splendid dry goods row, "Cheapside.") The Commercial rather inclines to our suggestion of "Inn Apigs-eye," though, as a place to "hang out" at, it seems to us "Gambrel Tavern" would be still better. Judging 'row tho wr Cincinnatians at the Burnet stuff, "Packing Place" would be more appropriate for a local boarding house, anil we withdraw it. The Bucyrus Journal (one of the beBt edited weeklies in the State) makes acknowledgment as follows: Here is an interesting column for Our Youni Folks, for which we are mainly indebted to the Ohio State Journal. Our Bucyrus namesake not only never copies without crediting editorial writing, but it generously gives credit for editorial work of which it makes use. By the way, our Saturday column for the Young Folks has received many compliments. It is the intention to furnish something in that department suitable for reading aloud in the family circle, during the leisure hours of Sunday, and the little folks are delighted with the idea. Tbe State Journal has given pretty full returns of our manufacturing and mercantile interests generally, but there is one branch of business which we have somewhat neglected. It is a fortunate thing that there is a paper published in Brooklyn, New York, (the Argus,) whose editor makes a specialty of the class of business neglected by us, and we are thus enabled to give coirect statistics. We quote from the Brooklyn Argus (which, though an Argus, has fewer I.s than Andy Johnson) ; The business growth of Columbus, Ohio, is something marvelous. The number of "sample rooms" has increased nearly a hundred per cent, in five years. A number of our exchanges' are making good points on the newspapers which are crowded each day with doleful accounts of the depressed state of business in various sections of the country. The New York Commercial says they "take a ghoulish delight in publishing the list of mills that are running on half time, of companies that have reduced their em ployes' wages, and of firms that have suspended payment. Now, just reverse the picture. Suppose they gave the same space, time and pains to publishing a list of mills that are still running on full time, companies that have not reduced their rates of payment, and firms or individuals that hare promptly met every indebtedness, would not the picture be brighter, pleasanter, and far more wholesome to the mercantile world ?" The Buffalo Courier says: "It is a matter for sincere regret that in times of financial disturbance, like the present, so much prominence is given to the dark side of the picture by the press. . The publica tion of so many doleful accounts of business prospects only tends to aggravate the trouble, and to compel partial or complete suspensions that otherwise would not have been necessary. By keeping the business disasters prominently before the people, to the exclusion of the brighter and more correct side of the picture, an erroneous public opinion ia created, which goes far to bring about the very evils it most fears. We believe that if the prosperous business interests of the country were as carefully reported as are the disasters, it would prove a powerful resotdy for our present troablt, far it would appear that the dif ficulties are not near as serious as have baea thought, We shall expect to " have a soft thing of it," this winter. Heretofore the State Journal dob given itself great solicitude with reference to State affairs. It has frequently made itself unpleasantly obnoxious to Bepublic'an Legislatures by the persistency with which it urged them to get through their work and adjourn, saving money to the people of the State notonly by economical sessions of great brevity, but by that abstinence from dev il's work Which idle hands find to do. We have worried the brethren not a little br sermons on retrenchment and economy, while the brethren supposed they were already doing good work in that department. Some of them have politely requested us to confine our selves to other business, and have hinted that a Republican organ ought to back its party friends better than- to go ahead criticising and finding fault; and we have had to show them that it was our special mission, beyond even the fighting of false parties, to ftnd fault with .Republican blunderers who are likely to ruin the one only living and true Republican party, Nevertheless, we have never contended that this censorship is a pleasant business. It is much ; pleasanter to say complimentary things of peo- pie. and have them think. ' "What a good fellow that State Jouenal is, to be sural " . Besides, it is repulsive to our love of human kind and confidence in hu man nature outside of and beyond the truly good, we mean, to be always croak ing and sighing, filling the air with dis mal suspicions where no overt dishonesty can be clearly proved, and living from day to day under a drizzle of tears over a wicked, wailing, whacking world. And it is because of all these things that we hope to have a soft thing of it this winter. The Democratic brethren will need no sermons from us about econo- my and retrenchment for they come to us as blessed economy ana Retrenchment in very person, on the authority of the printed tickets which cannot lie. They will need no exhortations to make the session short, for that is one of their best holds they never do sit more than three hundred days out of the three hundred and sixtyfive they might sit, in a year. Then, besides all these things, we shall not have any responsi bility in the matter that is a great deal. Whichever way it turnB out, it brings grist to our mill: If the Democratic party lives up to its prom- bo much the better for the people of the State of whom we are one of which; if, on the contrary, the Democratic party does not live up to its promises, so much the better for the Republican party of whom, also, we are one of which. It will be seen therefore that we have none of the partiality of a partisan organ, in this matter. We are so far utterly impartial as it is possible t be, where success or failure work equally well with one. Therefore we have this little confidential talk with our Democratic friends who take hold of the helm on the first Monday of January, in order that there may be a fair understanding between us. If you do well, we shall praise you. If you do ill, we shall enjoy ourselves, all the same. The Washington special ol the Cincinnati Commercial says that Mr. Casey, the President's brother-in-law, "has been edifying 'the correspondents with his views" of the Cuban business ; and Mr. Casey is represented as saying that "the President is particularly earnest, but got Buch a scarring from Mr. Sumner on account of the decisive measures of one of ourships-of-war, off the coast of Hayli, that he is too considerate to adopt warlike measures before Congress meets, in the small lapse of only a fortnight." Now, Mr. Casey is probably not a Solomon, but he can scarcely be such an incredible ass as to have used the language attributed to him. If the President remembers Mr. Sumner in this connection at all, it must be that he remembers him as the former chairman of the committee on Foreign Relations, for whom the Executive of the Nation lowered his claims upon the usages of official etiquette, so far as to visit him in his own house, in a vain effort to serve the public by conciliating his silly, childish egotism. The efl'ort was not as successful as it deserved to be. The President lost nothing in the regard of the publio by his com plaisance, but the Senator exposed himself helplessly and hopelessly, to his old friends, as a selfworshiper whose whole heart was so filled with his own image as to leave no room for any other sentiment, He exposed himself, as a person whom not even the seal of private intercourse, while actins as host to the most distinguished guest, could prevent from making a mean and prejudiced false statement of this same interview, in his place as a Senator of the United States. It exposed him as a per son willing to make undignified and ill-tempered speeches, of a childish and vin dictive character, to any Bohemian reporter who would listen to his calum niation of the President, for publication in any newspaper of character or no character. In short, it alienated Mr. Sumner from thousands of bis old friends, who had reckoned upon their faith in him as one of the treasures of existence. Ilis " Scar ring" of the President was a vindictive, ill-tempered, malignant piece of partisan- ry and personality, such aa sealed the measure of contempt for the maker of the speech, in the minds of most of the very few persons who read it. The most of his old friends who were still able to preserve the lingering remnant of respect for him purposely avoided reading his speech, which was known to exhibit such long-worded paroxysms of impotent rage as to make it humiliating to Mr. Sumner friends. If Mr. Casey has made any such remark as is attributed to him,' he should be retired from the responsible position ha holds, aa a pereon who exhibits symptoms of softening of the brain. - ' t A Mis. Moore remitted suicide yes-- terday inMemphls. Cause, destitution. We copy from the National Republi can, sometimes called the Washington organ of the Administration, an article on The War Power of the Executive, which bears Internal evidence of a semi-official character. It is gratifying to find so soon this convincing evidence that the Presi dent has fully justified our prediction that he would remember what the Democratic and sensational journals seemed in danger of forgetting that it was "The Congress" which had power "to declare war." In this President Grant has only given another evidence that no amount of misrepresentation and clamor and hullabaloo can ever so far disturb his imperturbable loyalty to the Constitution and laws as to induce him to overstep tfjS limits of Executive Ail- thorityIt is a characteristic illustration of both the character of the Opposition and tin character .of the President that the Ne'tr York Herald, - which has spent its whole1 brain power in at tempting to Bhow that Grant- ism is Uesarism, is now clamoring to have the President usurp the war power of the Government, while the President (Cesar) goes straight along, drawing, the line where the Constitution and laws draw it, and never going a hair's breadth beyond his clearly defined powers. The President is slow in controversy his ar gument is the logic of action. Such arguments, if slow, are powerful. The Her ald has been fighting it out on the Cesar line all summer, with indifferent success; and now comes the President and utterly demolishes its whole summer's argument, with one simple, direct act of law abiding rejection of bis beBt opportunity for a taste of Cesarism a taste urged upon him by the very censor which has affected to fear Cesarism while Cesarism was impossible. It seems to be settled, (by the Wash ington correspondents, at least,) that the President will not elevate any of the pres ent justices to the vacant place of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court; and it seems also to be settled in the same way that Senator Conkling,of New York, will be appointed Chief Justice. If Justice Swayne is not to be promoted, vreilo not know of any appointment which would give better or more general satisfaction to leading men hereabouts, Senator Conk-ling is a young man comparatively, with splendid abilities and learning, and with a reputation for honor, honesty and approved good character, absolutely above reproach or suspicion. If he is not so learned in precedents as Com. Dig., his age will enable him to reform that. It is proposed now that the United States recognize the Cubans as belligerents, and do what we can to help the cause and damage Spain. , But international law prescribes certain things to be done before any government can be recognized as having belligerent rights : The govern ment (we quote from a memory somewhat rusty) must have a recognized head, a capital, open communication 'with the high eens by possession of a harbor on the coast if it has a coast, a national flag to be carried on the high seas by its own ves sels, and the like. After all these condi tions are filled, a government may be recognized. If they were filled by Cuba the President still has the treaty power only in conjunction with the U. S. Senate. It is a good thing that Chicago is not a sovereign State, or we should have instant and bloody war against the Opera person who has withdrawn his Chicago engagement "because the patronage would not justify him in filling it." And this after all that has been said by Chicago papers of the provincialism of. Cincinnati, because this same Opera person mode the s.iuie remark of our Queen City. . , . RECORD OF CRIME. Two Horrible Outrage by b Couple of Kentucky Sconndrels. Special Dispatch to the Knquiror. Louisville. Ky.. Nov. 15. A horrible murder occurred on the Shelbyville pike, a few miles from this city, last evening. The faots are as follows : A negro man named Ben Dougherty was coming to the city to attend church, and when a few miles from the toll-gate two white men overtook him, and the three walked so mo distance together, when, without saying a word, one of the men drew a pistol and tired at the negro, the ball taking effect in his breaBt. Dougherty started toward him, when the other villain drew his pistol and fired., the ball striking the Door man in the head, tearing off tbe entire top oi uib ueau aim . .. . . i 1 i causing instant aeatn. lne mur derers immediately started lor mis cuy, and when near Cave Hill-met another ne- ro by tbe name of Henderson Morton, .'hey stopped him and demanded his mon ey, tie gave mem an ne naa. i ae vil lains tnen proaucea a rope, ana, aiier making a noose, proceeded to bang the poor fellow to a tree. Alter letting mm swing until they thought him dead, they cut him down, i ney men macKt-u meir fares with Inmo-black and started for the country. The coroner visited the place of miirrter. and returned a verdict in accoru- ancewith the above facts. The police are confident that the men belong to a regular organized band of robbers and cut-throats. Wa commend the above to the Ohio Statesman as a proof of the advancement of modern journalism. Twenty years ago, a Democratic newspaper that would have dared to pnblish such nn item of news in Cincinnati, would have been gut ted and thrown into the Ohio river, and its editors would have received such attentions as would have made a corner in the rotten egg market.

The dogs sprang upon the beds in terror and could not be induced to go out. The bear soon walked away as peacefully as he came.

SI'ANOIII STOltY OV THE CHASE AND CAF- -.'-iWl ' -' i TBM ,: New York. Nov. 17. A dispatch from Havana of the 10th gives the story of the capture of the Virginius as obtained from Spanish sources, and says the most re markable leature ot the capture was tne absolute non-resistance of the Virginius when , overhauled. The Tornado was cruising on the 31st of October, under sail, about eighteen miles from the Cuban coast. In the afternoon she sighted a Bteamer about six miles distant, heading toward her. The captain ordered steam to be got up. and soon the steamer headed for the coast of Jamaica, distant about one hundred miles, The , Spanish captain suspected that the steamer was ths virginius, and ordered his engineers to get up all the steam possible,even if they burst the boilers, and drive the engines at their utmost speed. The Tor nado under lull headway gained steadily, but night coming on the Spanish captain feared he would lose the vessel. The moon rising, he was enabled, by keeping all hands on deck, at the masthead and in the rigging, to keep in sight till the cor vette had ncared her sufficiently to bring gunB to hear. A shot waa fired, but the stranger made no reply , and four others were tired in succession, the last at 10 p. m., and immediately the steamer, which had led the corvette a chase of nearly cigh t hours, hove to. Two boats were lowered. and without resistance the Virginius was boarded. The Spanish took possession by hauling down the American flag which the Virginius had displayed throughout the chase, and hoisted the Spanish flag instead. Captain Fry, in his usual manner, handed over the steamer's pnpers for examination, to the officer in command of the boarding party, and that officer at once took charge of them, and both vessels werej headed for Santiago de Cuba.

A dispatch from Kingston says it is rumored that Kyan and Verona not dying easily, a- Spanish officer thruBt his Bword through Ryan's heart, and that a bloodthirsty mob severed the heads from the bodies, placed them on pikes, and marched through the city; The Virginius is reported to be sunk at St. Sago..

THE PRESIDENT'S VIEWS AS TO TUK AF FAIR OF THE VIRGINIUS. Washington, Nov. 17, The President to-dav. in conversation in regard to Cuban affairs, said this Government had thus far acted on such lacts as had reached it, unci was now engaged in collecting from all available sources further Information about the capture of the Virginius, and the particulars attending the revolting ex ecutions which followed that event. It was desirable that all information should be of such a character as would leave no doubt whatever as In its reliability. The propriety of this course was too evident to require an explanation. The Government being careful in what it is now doing and what it may do, to act upon facts and not upon assumptions and unconfirmed reports, it waa essential that we should be prepared to maintain our position. The President said he had changed none of the views heretofore expressed by hint concerning events in Cuba, but' had more than ever been con 1 1 rated in tnem uv recent occur rences. He shares with the public their denunciation of (he capture on the Inch seas of a vessel sailing with a regular clearance under tuo united states ling, and tbe startling events which so quickly followed. Spain never having considered the Island of Cuba in a state of war, and there being no proclamation by the I nitcd States according belligerent rights to the insurgents, the Virginius then regularly cleared tor Uaba, nad a ngnt to enter Havana or anv other open port of the Span ish Dossessions. This Government did not recognize any right on the part of Spain ia the present state of affairs, to interfere in any way with our merchant ships on the seas, except in tbe usual right in her own porta, and within one marine league of tbe coast of any of her domains, and of this fact she m aware. Ae a mat ter of course it is the determination of this Government to protect our citizens in all their rights, and to compel respect to the flag. OBJECT OF THE NAVAL PREPARATIONS. The present naval preparations were with this view, not to initiate war by the President, that power being verted in Uongresa, but to be prepared tor all possible contingencies on the meeting of Con gress. All the facto in the possession of tne ueeauva iwtmrUMBi retauva to Cuban affairs would be laid before that body, with such recommendations as the occasion might require. To-morrow, he said, he would commence the preparation of his message, but would defer that part relating to Cuban affairs until within a day or two of the meeting of Congress, desiring first to obtain all possible informa- : ' volunubers oh ouba: j '. - i Louisville!

The London Telegraph of the (Uh has the following special from Berlin of the same date : "It is not denied in official circles here that the Pope wrote a second letter to the Gorman Emperor. The fact that it has not been published is ascribed to the circumstance that it treated uf matters strictly personal to His Majesty, and in no way touched upon politics. It is not from motives of courtesy that it has been kept back, but for the simple reason that it is entirely devoid of importance. It has not been nor will it be answered by the Emperor."

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY We have a lot of jurenile books for the Holidays waiting notice such a list as will make any boy's eyes "pop out till you could knock them off with a stick." We shall tell the other boys what we think about the books, and our booksellers will tell them through the advertising columns of the State Journal where the books may be had. The Cincinnati papers have gone to work in good earnest to find a better name for their "Cincinnati Hotel," since the State Journal took the matter up. The Enquirer suggests "Boar's Head Inn" as both appropriate and classical. (It would give Andrews a chance, also, to call, his splendid dry goods row, "Cheapside.") The Commercial rather inclines to our suggestion of "Inn Apigs-eye," though, as a place to "hang out" at, it seems to us "Gambrel Tavern" would be still better. Judging 'row tho wr Cincinnatians at the Burnet stuff, "Packing Place" would be more appropriate for a local boarding house, anil we withdraw it. The Bucyrus Journal (one of the beBt edited weeklies in the State) makes acknowledgment as follows: Here is an interesting column for Our Youni Folks, for which we are mainly indebted to the Ohio State Journal. Our Bucyrus namesake not only never copies without crediting editorial writing, but it generously gives credit for editorial work of which it makes use. By the way, our Saturday column for the Young Folks has received many compliments. It is the intention to furnish something in that department suitable for reading aloud in the family circle, during the leisure hours of Sunday, and the little folks are delighted with the idea. Tbe State Journal has given pretty full returns of our manufacturing and mercantile interests generally, but there is one branch of business which we have somewhat neglected. It is a fortunate thing that there is a paper published in Brooklyn, New York, (the Argus,) whose editor makes a specialty of the class of business neglected by us, and we are thus enabled to give coirect statistics. We quote from the Brooklyn Argus (which, though an Argus, has fewer I.s than Andy Johnson) ; The business growth of Columbus, Ohio, is something marvelous. The number of "sample rooms" has increased nearly a hundred per cent, in five years. A number of our exchanges' are making good points on the newspapers which are crowded each day with doleful accounts of the depressed state of business in various sections of the country. The New York Commercial says they "take a ghoulish delight in publishing the list of mills that are running on half time, of companies that have reduced their em ployes' wages, and of firms that have suspended payment. Now, just reverse the picture. Suppose they gave the same space, time and pains to publishing a list of mills that are still running on full time, companies that have not reduced their rates of payment, and firms or individuals that hare promptly met every indebtedness, would not the picture be brighter, pleasanter, and far more wholesome to the mercantile world ?" The Buffalo Courier says: "It is a matter for sincere regret that in times of financial disturbance, like the present, so much prominence is given to the dark side of the picture by the press. . The publica tion of so many doleful accounts of business prospects only tends to aggravate the trouble, and to compel partial or complete suspensions that otherwise would not have been necessary. By keeping the business disasters prominently before the people, to the exclusion of the brighter and more correct side of the picture, an erroneous public opinion ia created, which goes far to bring about the very evils it most fears. We believe that if the prosperous business interests of the country were as carefully reported as are the disasters, it would prove a powerful resotdy for our present troablt, far it would appear that the dif ficulties are not near as serious as have baea thought, We shall expect to " have a soft thing of it," this winter. Heretofore the State Journal dob given itself great solicitude with reference to State affairs. It has frequently made itself unpleasantly obnoxious to Bepublic'an Legislatures by the persistency with which it urged them to get through their work and adjourn, saving money to the people of the State notonly by economical sessions of great brevity, but by that abstinence from dev il's work Which idle hands find to do. We have worried the brethren not a little br sermons on retrenchment and economy, while the brethren supposed they were already doing good work in that department. Some of them have politely requested us to confine our selves to other business, and have hinted that a Republican organ ought to back its party friends better than- to go ahead criticising and finding fault; and we have had to show them that it was our special mission, beyond even the fighting of false parties, to ftnd fault with .Republican blunderers who are likely to ruin the one only living and true Republican party, Nevertheless, we have never contended that this censorship is a pleasant business. It is much ; pleasanter to say complimentary things of peo- pie. and have them think. ' "What a good fellow that State Jouenal is, to be sural " . Besides, it is repulsive to our love of human kind and confidence in hu man nature outside of and beyond the truly good, we mean, to be always croak ing and sighing, filling the air with dis mal suspicions where no overt dishonesty can be clearly proved, and living from day to day under a drizzle of tears over a wicked, wailing, whacking world. And it is because of all these things that we hope to have a soft thing of it this winter. The Democratic brethren will need no sermons from us about econo- my and retrenchment for they come to us as blessed economy ana Retrenchment in very person, on the authority of the printed tickets which cannot lie. They will need no exhortations to make the session short, for that is one of their best holds they never do sit more than three hundred days out of the three hundred and sixtyfive they might sit, in a year. Then, besides all these things, we shall not have any responsi bility in the matter that is a great deal. Whichever way it turnB out, it brings grist to our mill: If the Democratic party lives up to its prom- bo much the better for the people of the State of whom we are one of which; if, on the contrary, the Democratic party does not live up to its promises, so much the better for the Republican party of whom, also, we are one of which. It will be seen therefore that we have none of the partiality of a partisan organ, in this matter. We are so far utterly impartial as it is possible t be, where success or failure work equally well with one. Therefore we have this little confidential talk with our Democratic friends who take hold of the helm on the first Monday of January, in order that there may be a fair understanding between us. If you do well, we shall praise you. If you do ill, we shall enjoy ourselves, all the same. The Washington special ol the Cincinnati Commercial says that Mr. Casey, the President's brother-in-law, "has been edifying 'the correspondents with his views" of the Cuban business ; and Mr. Casey is represented as saying that "the President is particularly earnest, but got Buch a scarring from Mr. Sumner on account of the decisive measures of one of ourships-of-war, off the coast of Hayli, that he is too considerate to adopt warlike measures before Congress meets, in the small lapse of only a fortnight." Now, Mr. Casey is probably not a Solomon, but he can scarcely be such an incredible ass as to have used the language attributed to him. If the President remembers Mr. Sumner in this connection at all, it must be that he remembers him as the former chairman of the committee on Foreign Relations, for whom the Executive of the Nation lowered his claims upon the usages of official etiquette, so far as to visit him in his own house, in a vain effort to serve the public by conciliating his silly, childish egotism. The efl'ort was not as successful as it deserved to be. The President lost nothing in the regard of the publio by his com plaisance, but the Senator exposed himself helplessly and hopelessly, to his old friends, as a selfworshiper whose whole heart was so filled with his own image as to leave no room for any other sentiment, He exposed himself, as a person whom not even the seal of private intercourse, while actins as host to the most distinguished guest, could prevent from making a mean and prejudiced false statement of this same interview, in his place as a Senator of the United States. It exposed him as a per son willing to make undignified and ill-tempered speeches, of a childish and vin dictive character, to any Bohemian reporter who would listen to his calum niation of the President, for publication in any newspaper of character or no character. In short, it alienated Mr. Sumner from thousands of bis old friends, who had reckoned upon their faith in him as one of the treasures of existence. Ilis " Scar ring" of the President was a vindictive, ill-tempered, malignant piece of partisan- ry and personality, such aa sealed the measure of contempt for the maker of the speech, in the minds of most of the very few persons who read it. The most of his old friends who were still able to preserve the lingering remnant of respect for him purposely avoided reading his speech, which was known to exhibit such long-worded paroxysms of impotent rage as to make it humiliating to Mr. Sumner friends. If Mr. Casey has made any such remark as is attributed to him,' he should be retired from the responsible position ha holds, aa a pereon who exhibits symptoms of softening of the brain. - ' t A Mis. Moore remitted suicide yes-- terday inMemphls. Cause, destitution. We copy from the National Republi can, sometimes called the Washington organ of the Administration, an article on The War Power of the Executive, which bears Internal evidence of a semi-official character. It is gratifying to find so soon this convincing evidence that the Presi dent has fully justified our prediction that he would remember what the Democratic and sensational journals seemed in danger of forgetting that it was "The Congress" which had power "to declare war." In this President Grant has only given another evidence that no amount of misrepresentation and clamor and hullabaloo can ever so far disturb his imperturbable loyalty to the Constitution and laws as to induce him to overstep tfjS limits of Executive Ail- thorityIt is a characteristic illustration of both the character of the Opposition and tin character .of the President that the Ne'tr York Herald, - which has spent its whole1 brain power in at tempting to Bhow that Grant- ism is Uesarism, is now clamoring to have the President usurp the war power of the Government, while the President (Cesar) goes straight along, drawing, the line where the Constitution and laws draw it, and never going a hair's breadth beyond his clearly defined powers. The President is slow in controversy his ar gument is the logic of action. Such arguments, if slow, are powerful. The Her ald has been fighting it out on the Cesar line all summer, with indifferent success; and now comes the President and utterly demolishes its whole summer's argument, with one simple, direct act of law abiding rejection of bis beBt opportunity for a taste of Cesarism a taste urged upon him by the very censor which has affected to fear Cesarism while Cesarism was impossible. It seems to be settled, (by the Wash ington correspondents, at least,) that the President will not elevate any of the pres ent justices to the vacant place of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court; and it seems also to be settled in the same way that Senator Conkling,of New York, will be appointed Chief Justice. If Justice Swayne is not to be promoted, vreilo not know of any appointment which would give better or more general satisfaction to leading men hereabouts, Senator Conk-ling is a young man comparatively, with splendid abilities and learning, and with a reputation for honor, honesty and approved good character, absolutely above reproach or suspicion. If he is not so learned in precedents as Com. Dig., his age will enable him to reform that. It is proposed now that the United States recognize the Cubans as belligerents, and do what we can to help the cause and damage Spain. , But international law prescribes certain things to be done before any government can be recognized as having belligerent rights : The govern ment (we quote from a memory somewhat rusty) must have a recognized head, a capital, open communication 'with the high eens by possession of a harbor on the coast if it has a coast, a national flag to be carried on the high seas by its own ves sels, and the like. After all these condi tions are filled, a government may be recognized. If they were filled by Cuba the President still has the treaty power only in conjunction with the U. S. Senate. It is a good thing that Chicago is not a sovereign State, or we should have instant and bloody war against the Opera person who has withdrawn his Chicago engagement "because the patronage would not justify him in filling it." And this after all that has been said by Chicago papers of the provincialism of. Cincinnati, because this same Opera person mode the s.iuie remark of our Queen City. . , . RECORD OF CRIME. Two Horrible Outrage by b Couple of Kentucky Sconndrels. Special Dispatch to the Knquiror. Louisville. Ky.. Nov. 15. A horrible murder occurred on the Shelbyville pike, a few miles from this city, last evening. The faots are as follows : A negro man named Ben Dougherty was coming to the city to attend church, and when a few miles from the toll-gate two white men overtook him, and the three walked so mo distance together, when, without saying a word, one of the men drew a pistol and tired at the negro, the ball taking effect in his breaBt. Dougherty started toward him, when the other villain drew his pistol and fired., the ball striking the Door man in the head, tearing off tbe entire top oi uib ueau aim . .. . . i 1 i causing instant aeatn. lne mur derers immediately started lor mis cuy, and when near Cave Hill-met another ne- ro by tbe name of Henderson Morton, .'hey stopped him and demanded his mon ey, tie gave mem an ne naa. i ae vil lains tnen proaucea a rope, ana, aiier making a noose, proceeded to bang the poor fellow to a tree. Alter letting mm swing until they thought him dead, they cut him down, i ney men macKt-u meir fares with Inmo-black and started for the country. The coroner visited the place of miirrter. and returned a verdict in accoru- ancewith the above facts. The police are confident that the men belong to a regular organized band of robbers and cut-throats. Wa commend the above to the Ohio Statesman as a proof of the advancement of modern journalism. Twenty years ago, a Democratic newspaper that would have dared to pnblish such nn item of news in Cincinnati, would have been gut ted and thrown into the Ohio river, and its editors would have received such attentions as would have made a corner in the rotten egg market.

One dark night last week a bear came up to a shanty occupied by twelre railroad hands and two large dogs. He was eri-dently on a foraging expedition, and contented himself by picking up crumbs and stray bones, and scratching about the door occasionally. As the men had no gun, they dared not attack him. The dogs sprang upon the beds in terror and could not be induced to go out. The bear soon walked away as peacefully as he came.

SI'ANOIII STOltY OV THE CHASE AND CAF- -.'-iWl ' -' i TBM ,: New York. Nov. 17. A dispatch from Havana of the 10th gives the story of the capture of the Virginius as obtained from Spanish sources, and says the most re markable leature ot the capture was tne absolute non-resistance of the Virginius when , overhauled. The Tornado was cruising on the 31st of October, under sail, about eighteen miles from the Cuban coast. In the afternoon she sighted a Bteamer about six miles distant, heading toward her. The captain ordered steam to be got up. and soon the steamer headed for the coast of Jamaica, distant about one hundred miles, The , Spanish captain suspected that the steamer was ths virginius, and ordered his engineers to get up all the steam possible,even if they burst the boilers, and drive the engines at their utmost speed. The Tor nado under lull headway gained steadily, but night coming on the Spanish captain feared he would lose the vessel. The moon rising, he was enabled, by keeping all hands on deck, at the masthead and in the rigging, to keep in sight till the cor vette had ncared her sufficiently to bring gunB to hear. A shot waa fired, but the stranger made no reply , and four others were tired in succession, the last at 10 p. m., and immediately the steamer, which had led the corvette a chase of nearly cigh t hours, hove to. Two boats were lowered. and without resistance the Virginius was boarded. The Spanish took possession by hauling down the American flag which the Virginius had displayed throughout the chase, and hoisted the Spanish flag instead. Captain Fry, in his usual manner, handed over the steamer's pnpers for examination, to the officer in command of the boarding party, and that officer at once took charge of them, and both vessels werej headed for Santiago de Cuba.

THE PRESIDENT'S VIEWS AS TO TUK AF FAIR OF THE VIRGINIUS. Washington, Nov. 17, The President to-dav. in conversation in regard to Cuban affairs, said this Government had thus far acted on such lacts as had reached it, unci was now engaged in collecting from all available sources further Information about the capture of the Virginius, and the particulars attending the revolting ex ecutions which followed that event. It was desirable that all information should be of such a character as would leave no doubt whatever as In its reliability. The propriety of this course was too evident to require an explanation. The Government being careful in what it is now doing and what it may do, to act upon facts and not upon assumptions and unconfirmed reports, it waa essential that we should be prepared to maintain our position. The President said he had changed none of the views heretofore expressed by hint concerning events in Cuba, but' had more than ever been con 1 1 rated in tnem uv recent occur rences. He shares with the public their denunciation of (he capture on the Inch seas of a vessel sailing with a regular clearance under tuo united states ling, and tbe startling events which so quickly followed. Spain never having considered the Island of Cuba in a state of war, and there being no proclamation by the I nitcd States according belligerent rights to the insurgents, the Virginius then regularly cleared tor Uaba, nad a ngnt to enter Havana or anv other open port of the Span ish Dossessions. This Government did not recognize any right on the part of Spain ia the present state of affairs, to interfere in any way with our merchant ships on the seas, except in tbe usual right in her own porta, and within one marine league of tbe coast of any of her domains, and of this fact she m aware. Ae a mat ter of course it is the determination of this Government to protect our citizens in all their rights, and to compel respect to the flag. OBJECT OF THE NAVAL PREPARATIONS. The present naval preparations were with this view, not to initiate war by the President, that power being verted in Uongresa, but to be prepared tor all possible contingencies on the meeting of Con gress. All the facto in the possession of tne ueeauva iwtmrUMBi retauva to Cuban affairs would be laid before that body, with such recommendations as the occasion might require. To-morrow, he said, he would commence the preparation of his message, but would defer that part relating to Cuban affairs until within a day or two of the meeting of Congress, desiring first to obtain all possible informa- : ' volunubers oh ouba: j '. - i Louisville!

The London Telegraph of the (Uh has the following special from Berlin of the same date : "It is not denied in official circles here that the Pope wrote a second letter to the Gorman Emperor. The fact that it has not been published is ascribed to the circumstance that it treated uf matters strictly personal to His Majesty, and in no way touched upon politics. It is not from motives of courtesy that it has been kept back, but for the simple reason that it is entirely devoid of importance. It has not been nor will it be answered by the Emperor."
