Eiteefield Advertiser Ti??S. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, BLi* 18. A Franco-Spanish alliance is soon to be announced. Edward Bellamy, the author of "LookiDg Backward," is dead. Spain will decree war privateer ing, if the great big six will allow it. The State democratic convention of 'ast week met and adjourned nothing more. . The Spanish flying squadron is believed to be everywhere that it is not. The Charleston battery of heavy artillery has been ordered to duty at Port Royal, this State. With our right at Manila and our left at Porto Rico we have a good long line of battle, say thir teen thousand miles. It is said now, or now said, that the Oregou has just reached Para, which is at the mouth of the Ama zon river. Congressman Robbins, of Penn sylvania, has resigned his seat in Congress to go to Cuba and fight the Spaniards. Loyal Americans will boycott the Paris exposition on account of France's sympathy with Spain in the present war. The cruiser Charleston left San Francisco for Manila on Saturday last with supplies for Dewey. On Monday and Tuesday three' trans ports with ten thousand troops sailed for the same place. The Spanish Cadiz squadrou, it is said, is about to sail for Cuban waters. It is also said that the Cape Verde fleet is bottled up in Santiago de Cuba, and Sampson has nothing to do but pull out the stopper. BISHOP STEVENS FAVORS DISPENSARY. . Bishop Stevens favors the dis pensary. In a letter published in the News and Courier of Monday he has the following to Bay : in its essential features, constitu^ tional, it is to hoped that the press and every good citizen will recognize it as a law of the State to be respected and obeyed. Let the defects of the law be pointed out in temperate language, with a view to their removal. Let no opprobrious epithets be applied to the institution or its officials created by the law. Let it have a fair chance to prove ils worth. With the unlimited and unjustifiable authority of search and confiscation by constables struck out: with every muni cipality free to determine for itself whether a dispensary shall be established in its territory ; with hotel privileges withdrawn ; with a board of control seeking lo check rather than encourege the use of liquor; with the dispenser not dependent for his position upon the amount of his sales, but his faithful discharge of duty; wich good wares, neither too high nor too cheap in price, and with a strict adherence to the law of sale, we may realize that we have found the safest andbest solution of the sale of liquor ever devised.

London, May 24.-The Daily Chronicle commenting on a dis patch from its correspondent at Kingston, Jamaica, who says that England has thrown eighteen months supplies into Jamaica, where all the officers have had their leave withdrawn asks if Eng land is going to take a hand in the Hispano-American war, and cou ples its correspondent's report with the rumer current in Liver pool yesterday that France is try ing to buy the Canaries for $30, 000,000.

THE RAPID RUSH INTO CUBA. The Movement is on Today With all Possible Vigor. ITEST ATTACHIENI OF TKOOPS LANDED And Others I ollowing-Trans ports With Men and Guns Go ing Rapidly-The Movement Ha? Now Assumed the Swift ness of an Avalancbe. Washington, D. C., May 23. According to good authority the movement on Cuba by7 the Ameri can army of sixty thousand has already begun. The first detach ment of troops is believed to have landed. Other transports sailed yester day and are to sail to-day. The purpose is to rush the army into Cuba with the swiftness of an avalanche, taking Blanco by sur prise. . The Cubans are rapidly pushing towards the coast and are opening landing places for the American troops. A battle occurred Thurs dap west of Matanzas. The block ading ships witnessed it. About three hundred Cubans were enga ged. The fighting lasted all day. Friday morning the Spanish cav alry and infantry were retreating. A Havana dispatch says : "The insurgents attacked the town of Palma Soriano near Santiago, using quick firing guns, but were repulsed by the garrison. The Spanish loss was slight." Naval officers at Key West are puppied at Blaucho's new tactics. The signal and searchlights at Ha vana have not been in operation since Friday night. All is dark in the harbor and town. General Miles said in Washing ton this morning that he expected to go south soon to take command of the army of invasion. It is the opinion of military ex perts that our troops will be in Havana in a few week's time. Great credence is placed in the report that troops have alroady started for Cuba, "BEFOSE BABY ?

Herald culls some interesting items from Spanish newspapers of recent date. From El Heraldo of Madrid it quotes thus : "All the troops of the Yankees are in the far western country many thousand miles from the Atlantic coast. There ara only a few thousand men all told, and they are iii paid and not willing to fight. To utilize this force it will he necessary to bring it to the eastern seabord. There is but one railway by which it can be transported and that is an old and poorly constructed affair. At one place this road passes over Niagara Falls, a cataract 1,000 feet high, near Labrador. At last accounts the bridge at this place was in a very dangerous condition. It need surprise none to hoar lh:it some agency did made it still more so. It w)uld serve the baleful pigs of Yankees right if their miserable army was thus drowned. It another part of the same paper a correspondent suggests that the Spanish fleet make a quick run from Cadiz to the American shrre which, he says, could he done in four days-and bombard''Chicago'1 (Chicago) and other seaport. . The Diaro, another Spanish newspaper, evidently similar to our "yellow" jurnals, issued an extra with the following statement: "The Yankee Presidente Magginly committed suicide for fear that the Spanish fleet would capture New York." The next clay it cor rected this, saying that he died from wounds inflicted by a brave Spaniard. The Diario also distin guished itself by publishing a bio graphical sketch of President McKinley, in which it bays: "Magginly is a naturalized Chinaman, having been born ot IE ? ii i-rm alteiDPLat_-huDQor on the part of The Diprio, but is meant seriouslv. A. t? ?mparcial, under date of April 20. publishes the following dispatch from Havana : "Word has just been received here that the Indians are rising against the Yankees in Illinois, Ohio and other places. The farmers are petitioning the govern ment to protect them from the blood thirsty savages, who aro burning houses and killing on every side. Troops are asked for at Colorado, in the State of Denver, and at St. Louis (San Luis) in Missipa." In the same issue The Imparcial also says : "We have repeatedly called attention to the fact that the Americans are ignorant swine who cannot take care of themselves under any circumstances. That they are imbeciles is shown by the fact that at Philadelphia the other day a boiler burst in a cigar factory and killed 27 people". And these are the people who dare to defy and insult the Spaniads, with centuries of chivalry and war like history at their backs." El Pais, another great journal of Madrid, recently said, editorially : "It ie pitiful to see what chil dren, what weaklings tho Ameri cans are. They are unable to care for themselves as infants in arms. Yesterday there were no les3 thar, two railway accidents in America, the total victims being six. They are ignorant of the use of fteam and their telegraph poles aro con tinually blowing clown." Speculating upon what Spain should do with the United State,? when she haB conquered tili: nation, El Pais says: "Thc country is not fit to live in. The climate is execrable. "When it is not sleeting or snowing the heat is almost unbearable. Avalauches are frequent at all times and these threaten the principal cities. As for the peoplo, besides the few whites engaged in business along the eastern coast, the remainder of the country is one vast plain covered with In dians called cow-boys and great j herds of roaming cattle." In one of the recent issues El Heraldo says: "News is brought to us that Buffalo Bill, a notorious outlaw and leader of a band of half breeds, has arisen against the American government and is burning towns near his birthplace in New York." Those references are all a serious sarcasm, they aro not humorous, thoy are published as actual facts so far as the Spanish editors know them. To us they are extremely ludicrous, but they manifest the ignorance ef the people and the base influence that a gagged press, under power of steaming and cor ru pt statesmen aud military lead ers, exerts upon the pablic of Spain. They are much like our "yellow''journals in the publica tion of figments of the iinsgination that has run mad. JOHNSON'S*. CHILL AND. FEVER TONIC, Cures Fever Sn O?c-Day. The Fee is Five Dollars.

Rheumatism often causes tlie most in tense gunering. Many have for years vainly sought relief from this disabling disease, and are to-duy worse off than ever. Rheumatism is a blood disease, and Swift's Specific is the only cure, be cause it is the only remedy which can reach such deep-seated diseases. A few years ago I was taken v,-lth Inflamma tory Rheumatism, which became so Intense that I was for weeks unable to walk. I tried several prominent physi cians and took their treat ment faithfully, bnt was unable to get the slight est relief. In fact, my con. di tl o n teemed to grow worso, the disease spread over my entire, body, and from Novembcfato March ut fliino vm^ipa me. Upon the a rf v i c o of a mend I decided to try S. S. 8.
