The report of the Secretary of the Navy, to the Hou>?, on the Oneida disaster, .concludes: "The Oneida was steering thc proper course, that the bad seamanship of thc officers of thc Bom? bay caused thc disaster, and that the latter ex? hibited a reckless disregard of human life and the common obligations of humanity."

GENERAL LEE ON THE WAR. ..If thc Trath were Toltt Jnsf now, it wonld not bc Credited." David MuCrac ls furnishing Ihe Glasgow (Scotland) Herald with a series of interesting Sketche?? o: American men and women. He de? scribed his tlrst interview with General Lee as follows: '.When 1 got back to the hotel. I found thatl.ee, who was aware of my coming, hail already (with the courtesy so conspicuous among a class of Amei leans.) Rent his servant to Inquire ir 1 had arrived, and to say that be would like to see me at the col lon e. *'On Rjlug iberc after breakfasr, I was taken np stairs and shown Into the room sn aside for the college president. "A noble-looking man, dressed In gray military coat, who had been writing at a table near thc window, rose, as I entered. He was tall, straight and soldler-hkc, with crisp hair turning while; short-trimmed beard, pointed at the chin, and dark, imperial-looking eyes, very keen and searching. It was Robert E. Lee, the old Confed? erate commander. .'As the tlrst w. rds of greeilng passed between ns, there was a hidden sadness in his look which Impressed mc painfully. He was suffering from ill health at thc lime, but it was not a look of physical pain. Perhaps lt was only my feeling, but it seemed as if the shadow of ihe past was over him-as if you could real behind the vigi? lance of his dark eyes the fate of the South, and of thc myriad who lay sleeping on the battle? fields. "When I was scated bc betrau to Inquire where I had been in the Solidi, and about my journey up-smiling at the somewhat doleful account I had to give him ?rf my experience lu the stage from GisUeu. He said there was another road I might have taken-the one from Stanton. 'But they say which ever road you take, you wish yon had taken theotuer.' Ile had been twice by ihe Goshen road on horseback. The scenery was very grand. ..He began to speak about Scotland, and said: 'You will meet willi many of your countrymen here. Thc Valley of Virginia ls peopled with ?cotch-Irish-people who have come from Scot? land by way of Ireland. They are a line race. They have the courage and determination of the Scotch, with the Irish dash ami intrepidity. They make line soldiers,' '.He said it was an old wish or his tu visit this country; but it would never be realized now. Stonewall Jackson had been In Scotland before the war. He had heard him speak of lt. "When some reference was made to the odds against which the South hail f.nicht, and the want there was of accurate statistics, I told him lt was understood he was preparing a history or the war himself. " 'I have had that in view,' he said, 'ont the time ia not come tor un impartial history. If the truth were told j ist now.it would not be credited.' "When the bv>oks that had already apprared were spoken of, aud 1 mentioned oue. the proof sheet of which, lt. was asserted, had been sub? mitted to General Grant and himself for revision, he said: -lt ls a mistake. I have never read a history or the war, nor the biography ofanv man engarl-d In lt. My o.vn life has becii written, but I have not looked into it.' He added, aller a pause, 'I do not wjsh to awaken memories of the past.' "ile spoke highly of Sherman's abilities-said Sherman had always been a good soldier. "Rc seemed much gratilleil when I told him of the estimation lu which he and Stonewall Jack? son bad been held from the Brat l>y the British people, irrespective altogether of Northern and Southern sympathies, lie said, arter a pause, 'Jackson lies In the Presbyterian burying ground at the other extremity of Lexington." -?T> i, ? THK SKCUKT OP AIIVRKTISINO is not yet dis? covered by all who advertise. A good deal of money and space ls wasted in clumsy announce? ments, which nobody reads, heavy standing pla? cards which no more stimulate purchasers than thc names on signs. Much money is uUo wasted in circulars, which arc thrown jnto cutri?s. and always received witil contempt, or in so-cailcd iuTcrtising sheels, which nobody reads. There is no medium that comes iuto such close contact with the people as the newspaper; and ir adver? tisers only understood their business they contd make their part or the paner as interesting as any other part or lt. In many or thc German papers advertising is carried to an extent or which wc have no idea. The newspaper is thc real ex? change. Everybody goco to it with all his wants, and almost all his woes. The consequence ls that thc sheets are as lively as neighborhood gossip, and often the pages devoted to advertising are the best parts or thc paper. And the papers are read through. The announcements arc always short, always "transient," and oue looks at them lu thc moi o sec what the world has to offer him that day, oy way ot busiuess or amusement. Perhaps bis next door neighbor has a rare piece or china or a choice engraving .J sell, or he would like to get an odd number or some serial, which you would happen to have; somebody, somewhere, announces something that interests you, and so ure is made more endurable, trade la quickened, and wants are supplied. Wc I ok to see a more general u^eor thc advertising columns of newspapers in this country, for all thc wants and queries of il e. -Basil Duke and Simon Bolivar Buckner have declined the ofllce or chief or police of Louisville, at a salary or $3000.

Heavy Fighting in Las Tunas-Two Spanish Columns Routed, with a IiQSa of Thirty-five Officers and Four Hun? dred Men-Great Excitement In Ha A Havana letter or March 26, to the New York World, suys : Again have thc Spanish troops been thrashed The event, or rather eveut", for there were two different engagements, occurred in t he district or Las Tuna*. My information, l win preface, is not obtained from Cuban sources, but fruin French panics ami conies from Ray ainu. A RUSS DE (jl'ERRB. Ou tho loth thc Spanish commander at Canto dei Embarcadero received a letter from a Cuban officer announcing io him that the writer and over ono hundred cotopunionp-ln-armx were de? sirous 'T submitting lo thc Spaniards having be? come" tired ol'Hie war and despondent as to ulti? mate success; thal they were closely watched mid unable to present themselves, lim that ir the commander in question would only send a force b?y?nd the River Salado, that then they would tie abie io Join Mic Spaniards and return to that allegiance they regretted bavins abandon? ed. Thc com mander lamped at n honk so largely baited, aud at once dispatched Colonel Qursadu (no klu of the Cuban ex generalissimo,) willi thc Battalion or Matanzas ?iud part or a companv nf artillery, lo the Salado, lu all about 423 mea.* li KO happened that at thal time tin- lunation ol San Quintin and another, forming together calaum of 900 men, were In seared ur luxurceiii bands between Arenas and the River Salado, ?ind uot many miles rrom the point indicated for Hie submission ol thc Cuban officer and companions, and. to guard agalust treachery and surprises, Colouel Quesada was instructed as to how he could communicate wltn the commander or the column-this one at the same time receiving or? ders to assist the colouel tr asked to do so. Now for the results. ' ONE BPANTSn COLUMN ROUTED. I suppose you have already divined that thc Cuban offer to surrender was only a ru.*e ar gu?tre. When his rominand reached Rio Abajo on the 11th. Colonel Quesmln discovered ihis to his POSI, for there he was vigorously assuulted by i GOO In? surgents, led by Generals Modest j Diaz (colored,y and Vincente Garcia. Despite a stubborn resist? ance, the Spaniards were forced lo retreat before their fur more numerous opponents, but. to their credit be it said, succeeded lu saving one of their canons. Their accounts claim that st first they were successful, driving the Insurgents before them, and killing a large number, thirty-seven of whom they saw and counted, but that, their am munition having become exhausted, tbey natural? ly bad to retire. The truth ls, colonel Querada was badly whipped, and lost nearly one third of Ids force, the Insurgent losses being less, as they fought most of thc lime under cover. A SECOND COLUMN ROUTED. ? s soon as attacked, Colonel Quesadu sent mes? sent rs to thc comniiiudcr of thc other Spanish column, but they failed to hud him. He heard, however, the lire from Colonel Qnesada's artille? ry, aud Ims ened to his assistance, but un fortu? nately got lost In the woods, and never came up with Colonel tmesada's command. The Insur? gents pursued their routed foes for onlvafew miles, and then turned upon the second Spanish column, and commenced a second engagement only a short distance from where tho first hail been (ought. The Spaniards aguin were defeated and compelled to retreat. An insurgent force under Luis Figucrcdo, that had been watching thc moveiuents'or the second column, took part in this second engagement, and contributed much towards thc results obtained. HEAVY LOSSES. My informants do not pretend to bc able to give the exact losses or thc Spaniards In the second engagement, lu the twe the Dons are said to have lost between 35 and 40 officers killed, wound? ed and missing. From this I inter they must have also losi about 400 enlisted men-killed, wounded and captured. My Informants arc posi? tive thut thc insurgent losses were less than those ot the Spaniards, but do not give them. They say several Spauisli ofilccis, who were in one or thc other or the engagements, have declared that the lusurgeuts Knight with desperation, and were better armed thau they were ever before known to bc. W ll ERE A no UTS OK JORDAN. General Jordan, by Spanish, Cuban and private accounts alike, ls to-day located within ihe dis? trict of Las Tunas, and some ur thc Cuban reports have him present at the second engagement. As Count de Yalmaseda has entered upon the recon? quest ot the district, which Tor fourteen mouths has been almost eutirely III insurgent possession, aud as affuirs in the Camag?e) permit his being away, General Jordan has come to Las Tunas tu oppose the Spanish efforts. Reports ayrcc pretty well in giving him a force of -tooJ men, wuk which he will contest with thc renowned Cuunt for the supremacy within thc district, with Hue chances of success. It is plain io see (hat hU policy is to struggle long and desperately to pre? vent the Spaniards carrying out their plan. In possession of the district of Las Tunas, tiny would be within a few leagues or the Cuban capi? ta", and the place would indeed then bu. more sc llon-.'; ii'.reaieued iq lU? rear luau IS ever was ny the front, with tiiosc In t he front moreover slid powerful and very anxious to effect its capture. From all this wc may therefore expect to soon hear or more engagements of importance wiituu thc district of Las Tunas. CUBAN DISASTER. From Trinidad there ls also news of a disaster to the Cuban cause, not a disaster through the loss ot men. bul through that of a train, which is near? ly as bad. On tuc 18th the Spunish column ot Colonel Martinez overtook and captured forty four pack horses and mules, near Arroyo Velas? quez, thc escorting Cuitan soldiers abandoning the (ruin aluiost without fighting Meat, rice, coffee, com, clothing, shoes aud tobacco, were found to comprise the loads or thc captured horses and mules. Opinions differ as to whether these anieles were smuggled by the Cubans troiu the Spanish lines, or whether :!:?v were brought to Hie island by some Jamaican Joop. MURDERS AND EXECUTIONS. In Cienruegos City, a customhouse officer, on the21st, killed Dun Rias Rodriguez, a Cuoun. be? cause he opposed his foaling around a private bath-house In which ladies were bathing.

They resined near the outskirts of Ci?nagas de Zapa'a, where they were arrested; and their disloyalty consisted In giving informa? tion to a band of Coban Insurgents that recently passed near their homes. Three of the men were married and leave large families tn mourn their death, and probably to avenge them at no very distant day. In Cardenas a free (BO longer In? dentured) Chinaman was shot by tlie authorities on Wednesday asa Cuban emissary and author of one of the recent cane Held fires of the district, In Havana, on Thursday, a couple or civil guards entered a bar-room, aud Immediately afterwards one of them levelled lils gun at the barkeeper, and without saying a word, tired, killing him In? stantly.

TERS, as the standard Tonic of the age, and the large deraind far the article, not only In thc Unit cd States but elsewhere, have provoked thc cupid? ity or the counterfeiting tribe, and it lias been ex? tensively simulated and imitated by unscrupu? lous sharpers. The most daring conntorfalt or said article which has been attempted, has recently come to our knowledge. Thc engraved steel label on bot? tles containing thc genuine bitters, with Its beuu tlfal vignette of St. George and the Dragon, Its shield, containing a warning against counterfeit? ers, and its note of hand far "one cent" at the faot, signed by our firm name, has been copied so closely that i he fraud can only be detected on a minnie inspection. Th; dark label is also well counterfeited, and Ilia wording on both thc imita tallon and genuine ure precisely the same, the dif? ference being simply In thc execution of the work; that or thc Imitation being somewhat coarser than the genuine. Other counterfeits ure on thc market, which arc In all particulars the same as described above, with thc exception of a slight difference in the spelling or our name. In addition to Hm above, these counterfeiters have gone so far lu some Instances as to place a strip ot paper over the cork and fasten to the neck ot the bottle, on which ls a vignette, aud other? wise printed to resemble thc general appearance or oar proprietary U. S. Revenue stamp, but upon Inspection will disclose Hie absence or thc ligure "4," and thc words "faur cents," also '.United States Internal Revenue," all or which, together with addltloual wording, appear on our genuine stamp. The public are, therefore, especially war - ed against tbese new counterfeits, and are advis? ed to purchase IIOSTILTTEI.'S STOMACH BIT? TERS only or houses whose Integrity ls above suspicion.
