HAYTIAN HOSTILITIES. Progress ot the Re?olntion in the Black Republic. Grand Saline Totally Destroyed and the Dessaline8 Sank. A town burned to ashes. A man-of-war sunk with all on board. A general deserts from Legitime with $10,000 and 2000 men. These are the striking items ot news brought by the steamer William Coleman that has jost arrived at New York from (innaires. Havti. This puts an entirely new I tace oq Haytian affairs and offsets to a cer. tain extent the bombastic cables sent by Legitime to this country. The William Coleman has touched at Vera Cruz and some Haytian ports. She steamed into the port of Gonaives, which is situated thirty-two iniles north of St. Marc. Captain Scott found the town completely fortified. a heavy stockade having been erected around the outskirts and two forts composed of sand banks and piles erected at the mouth of the harbor. Captain Scott went ashore, and there learned that the day previous, about 4 p. M., the Haytian man-of-war ' legalities had steamed up to Gonaives Bay with the intention ot bombarding the town. She reconnoitred for a position a little, seemingly afraid of the forts, and sho had reason to be, for they suddenly opened lire on hor from both sides. This treatment seemed somewhat discourtoous to the commander of the Pessalinos, who returned the tire, sometimes aiming at the forts and sometimes at the town. No damage was done to the former, and but one shot landed in the latter, and that tore the root off a dwellinghouse near the German Consulate. The tiring of the forts was rapid and wellaimed. owing to the efforts of & Spanish gunner who had recently entered Hippolyte's 1? ?i nan nwriiit General scrvivo nuu W..N/.MW. - ?-----O'Harm, m soidior of fortune wUo made hu shots tho Dessaliues pulled out of range, but not before a gaping hole was seen in her side only a foot above tho water line. It was also noticed that she listed heavily and seemed to labor in the light sea that was running as though seriously disabled. Her departure was follow? I by a chorus of demoniac yolis from the Northern artilleryman, who deserted their guns and rail out on the beach and ramparts to express in derisive gestures their contempt for so cowardly an enemy. That night was a great ono in tlonaives. All Min tr?ivn t.nrnnd (11 it, til feast, and tniut t.hn soldiers, and two or three of thorn were made Generals on the spot. Before the festivities were completed a runner arrived from the lower coast announcing that the Dessalines had sunk oil St. Mare's with all on board. This added to the enthusiasm and tho "tala'' tloweJ lik< wafer. Acting under instructions from the Secre tary of War, -'00 men left Gonafves to inarcl against Grand Salino, which was then garrisoned by Legitime's forces. About five bun <lred iuen left St. Marc's at tho same timo foi the same purpose, but for some reason failed to connect. The Gonaivos forces, however, made a spirited attack on Grand Saline, but were repulsed. The next day fighting was resinned and during tho night Le I'l'WUllf.Siy <sel ll on lire. Tho place was entirely consumed, and Grand Saline is blotted olT the face of the earth. The Southern troops tied across tho sandv plain to tho mountains tnnt form the boundary line between Ilayti and San Domingo, und unless tho inhabitants of the latter have murdered the refugee5 tboy aro still in hiding. General Jean Jumeaux. late of Legitime s army, came to Gonaives from Capo llavtian to assume command of tlio troops. Jumeaux was formerly <1 trusted lieutenant of Legi time's, who gave him charge of '-JiHJO rar' and $10,000 to go and subdue (Jonaives. It was some weeks ago that ho arrived within live miles of the town and felt a kind of sneaking sympathy for Hippolyte, coming over him so strongly, in face, that he disbanded his army and struck out for the hills with the $10,000. THREE DOUBLE DEATHS. Grief-stricken Relatives Drop Dead at- Jfenriii;; Stul News. Three doubla deaths liavo occurred under most peculiar circumstances. A solemn funeral cortege wended its way to Greenwood Cemetery recently. Two bodies were laid side by side in one grave. They were the remains of Joseph Ritter and his sister Lydin.

"Estate see ray daughter onco more for tho last time," implored Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson of tho undertaker in Jersey Citv recently, as he was preparing her daughter's l.ody for burial. Tho request was grauted. The sorrow-stricken mother was left alone with her dead. She knelt down, kissed tho cold lips and began to pray: '< ), God! let me .lie with my child. I cannot live without her." A piercing scream startled the relatives in an >fher room. They rushed in and found that the mother's prayer had been answered. S!r< was dead. Senator Grekk,Inspector of tho Soldiers' Chnhans' Schools, has discovered that tho boys at the McAUistervillo (I'eun.) School who were supposed to be insuno were shamming. Twenty-four of them have confessed, much to the confusion of the doctors who have diagnosed tho cases. Their ob ject was to have fun and get their meals carried to them. Their ages range from ton to sixteen years.

Hundred^ have testified to tlio ?.imo effect. Mr. J. E, Housall, Prothonotary, Now Dloomfleld, Perry Co., Pa., in 1881 was permanently cured ol rheumatism. From the ago of 15 to 48, a hoi 33 years, he had suffered acutely at times from tlic dread disease and at the date Bpeciflod, he was permanently cured by St. Jacobs Oil. It proof of thi-, he writes in 1886 that be has had no recurrence of rheumatic pains since his re lief in 1881. Again la April. 1888, he writes at follows: "My health continues good; no re' turn of rhcuma Ism since 1881 when cured by St. Jacobs Oil. I receive letters from all parts ashing about my miraculous cure alter 31 years suffering." Tliero is no other remedy extant thst, can show like results, and when It is known that tlic.o arc hundreis of sucl oa-<rs in the tiles of tho propriet r.*, from thost who have la I ke manner been permanently cured w ith ut tbo least recurrence, there ar< uono at this Into dato who will deny Its miraculous virtues.
