Seven years ag1) when lie was only 14 years old. lie shot out! killed his father, who was dragging his mother by the hair, and bei ting her. He was con demned for murder, but the sentiment in Sampson county, where his home was, was so slrong against hanging him, that Governor Fowle commuted it to life im prisonment. Now he will probably bo pardoued. His prison record is line, lie is a cousin of Senator Marion Butler. The Literary circle of the Roman Catholic church gave a lawn party Tues day night in the beautiful grounds in front of their church. It was one of the prettiest sights ever seen here. The grounds were illuminated with myriads of chiiieso lanterns, and while cool, still a handsome, sum was netted. The new chief of police here has or dered that the side walks all over the city be kept cleared. It is hoped that this will ba kept up, for heretofore the blocking of tho $ido walks by goods boxes ha:i been a perfect nuisance.

The government has rested its case asainst Henry C. Huvc meycr, the president of the American Sugar Refining Company. Mr. John son, of Philadelphia, the leading counsel for the defense, moved that the judge instruct the jury to find the defendant nit guilty on six grounds. First That the question as to local and State contributions of the sugar company was beyond the jurisdiction of the Senate Committee and imperti nent. Second That it was not part of Mr. Havemeycr's duty to examine rec ords for the purpose of answering questions he could nst answer from memory. Third. That when data from books or records are demanded such books or records are tho best evidence. Fourth That the question put to the witness was too broad, covering irrele vant matters. Fifth That if the witness was to be held recuscant it was the duty of the committee to warn him that the question was a committee,, not an individual, question, and, Sixth That the indictment did not disclose a cause of action. Mr. Johnson made nn argument of tin hour and a half in support of his motion, nnd when he had concluded District At torney Davis asked for an adjournment, which was granted. Mr. Davis will re ply to the motion. The concluding tes timony of the government offered was not important save for the purpose of making up the record as t,i what oc curred in the Senate investigating com mittee. WARSHIPS MOVEMENTS. ANl;niiieuts Made bj the Neoretary of I lie Stnvy or the Mntlun'a Vowel. New York. The Washington corres pondent of the Herald says: Secretary Long has determined to or der the Lancaster to return home from the South Atlantic station, I am told that the Department wants a supply ship for the North Atlantic station, and the Lancaster may be used for this purpose. It is expected a gunboat will be sent to t ne South Atlantic, where, after the re turn of the Lancaster, the only remain ing vessel will be the Castiue. It Is generally believed that a larger ship in addition will be assigned to the station, and that the Secretary will then assign one of the Commodores to thccommniid. The Feru is now acting as the siyiply and dispatch boat of the North Atlantic sta tion, and the Lancaster may take her place. Tho Navy Department is making an effort to have tho Treasury Department return the Jamestown, which is now in use in New York harbor for quarantine purposes, but it is meeting with copshl crable'ditHculty. The Jamestown is de sired as a powder vessel to be stationed in New York harbor. Tho detail ot officers for the gunboat Annapolis is now being prepared at the Navy Deportment. I understand the Secretary has selected Commander J. J. Hunker to command this vessel. Com mander Hunker is on duly at the New York navy yard as ordnnnco officer. The department has also decided to iav sign Commander W. T. Swinburne, now in charge of the Department of Seaman ship at the Naval Academy, to the com mand of the gunboat Helena, which is now being completed at Newport Nowa. Just as soon as' tho Nashville can be made ready for sea and a crew secured to man her. Commander Washburn May-, nard will be detached from the Bureau of Equipment and ordered to command her. The Navy Department has lieen in formed that I he gunboat Princeton will be launched from the works of Dialogue & 8on, Camdnn, N. J.) on June 8rd. The authorities no nol expect that she will be roady for commission beforo October 15th.

C Consul General Lee cabled the Stale Department from Havana that the amount of Miopias lie has now on hand there for the relief of American citizens in distress is nlmiiilanl and will last for some lime. Presuma bly this statement appli"s generally to ail consulates, for the consul general lu.s been in consultation with the subordinate consuls on Ibis matter, by direction of tho Secretary of Suite. At any late the department will now pause before mov ing further in the distribution of relief. Steps were begun to hurry forward sup plies from this country to Cuba jus! as soon as General Lee was heard Iroui. General Sullivan, commissary general has selected one of his most experienced assistants, Ouitnin Davis, who rendered such good service at Memphis in the re lief of the flood Eiifferers lo go to Cuba with the supplies, if mccssnry, nnil dis tribute them under the general plans of General Lee. The New York commissa ry depot was to undertake the purchase of the supplies. Then Mr. It. A.

Now. however, the deparlinenl will wait until General Lee nolilies it that there is fur ther need for relief before putting its plan into operation. Havana. El Uiario do la Marina, in a leading editorial savs: "We see in the American newspapers evidence that there are certain social classes in the 1'nited Stales not siilli ciently alive to tho importance of the ad vice: 'Don't monkey with the lions tail.' These classes are leinni kahle for I lie eagerness with which they invade juris diction in all'.iirs which, like the Cuban war, are exclusively the affairs of t'pain. 'The persistency ivilh which they rec- onize the belligereiicv of the insurgents is crazv and ridiculous. The important conservative interests in Ihc I'niled Slates should not forget that the patience of Spain may soon become exhausted. The Spanish government has given abun dant proofs of its sood will by ignoring tho many inconveniences that have been caused by resolutions in Congress, Those interests ought to be thankful to us for our abnegation. c have suffered, but in case the sword should lie unsheathed Spam would certainly not be the heai ic.st loser ill the fighl.- 'Spain has sent SOO.Ono men to Cuba to settle n domestic dilliriiltv, What would sho not do in the event of a for eign war with the nation w hich for a century bits abused our paticn.o by ig noring Spanish honor and chivalry?
