-A few days ago a Spanish dispatch from Havana announced that the Cuban expedition which sailed from New York two weeks ago, on the steamer George B. Upton, had been cap? tured. Letters to the Tribune and New York Sun announce that the expedition was safely landed on the coast five days before the force which the Spaniards say captured it left Neuvl tas. The men and arms taken out by the Up? ton, were undoubtedly well in the interior be? fore the Spaniards knew of their arrival, and this reinforcement will be very welcome to the insurgents. -The Cincinnati Industrial Exposition, un der the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce, the Board of Trade and the Ohio Mechanics' Institute, will open on September 21st, and continue until ictober 15th, 1670.

Ample preparations have been made for the exhibition of machinery in lor the prominent display of the different products, and arrangements are be- lng made for the cheap transportation of ar? ticles from ali paris of the -The latest adrices from Cuba, by mall, are to the 28th ultimo. The Spaularils still con? tinue tb perpetrate acts of cruelty upon per? sons supposed to be In sympathy with the Coban cause. A number of families were re? cently arrested by the soldiers a short dis? tance from Nun vitas. The men and boys sue- ceeded in escaping, but the women and small children suffered much from their captors, who respect neither age nor sex.

The prison? ers' clothes and jewelry were all stolen, and they were otherwise treated In a most cruel manner. They were forced to march with the column six daysA This Was done with the view of Inducing the fathers, husbands and brothers of the prisoners to reveal them? selves on the line of march. Had they done so they would have been killed. The old ladies who were thus compelled -to tramp suffered terribly on the march. On thc 23d the Spaniards shot six men near the pow? der fort.

After committing this barbarous act they cut the heads from the dead bodies and nailed them on trees in the vicinity. It was rumored that an American engineer had been shot for being found on the plantation of Mon tejo, and Dr. Silva and wife had also been kill? ed for harboring a Cuban patriot. The most encouraging reports are given, however, of the Insurgent cause; arms arc all that is want? ed; these once supplied, the Cubans will give a good account of themselves. There are thousands of people not only ready but anxious to take them up.

-Probably the most Imposing Masonic cele? bration ever held in this country occurred in New York on Wednesday, the occasion being the laying of the corner-stone of the Masonic Temple to be erected on the northeast corner cf Sixth avenue and Twenty-third street. There were no or gaudy uniforms in the procession, all the members wearing the usual tjlack silk hat, black clothes, white gloves, and white aprons tied under the coats. The offi? cers wore tbti jewels of thelrrank. The column was in ten divisions, composed of nearly 160 lodges, and numbering about 25,000 men in the ranks. Over the entire line of march the walks were crowded by well-dressed citizens, Interested in the grand display.

After all thc lodges had arrived near the site of the Temple, aU were on the platform who. were entitled to prayer was offered by the Grand Chaplain, and after an anthem, the Deputy Grand Master introduced the Grand Master to the assembled members ot the craft. When all was ready the ceremonies were com? menced by the delivery of the invocation by the Grand Chaplain, after which a number of coins and medals were deposited in the hollow of the stone. The corner-stone was then lowered In its place during the singing of the anthem "Ere this vast world was made." Af? ter an Inspection by the respective officers, it was announced that the work had been well done and that "the craftsmen had performed their duty." The customary ceremony of spread? ing the cement, scattering oom on the stone, Ac, then took place, after which the Grand Marshal made thc usual proclamation. Rev.

E. S. Porter then delivered the oration, when tho whole of the craft assembled, led by the united choirs and accompanied by tim bands, sang the Anthem of Praise, to the tune of "Old Hundred." At the conclusion, the Grand Chaplain pronounced the benediction, after which the several lodges were dismissed and returned to their various lodge-rooms. The Temple will be built of light-gray granite, will front one hundred and forty-four feet on West Twenty-third street, ninety-nine feet on Sixth avenue, and will be five stories high, the Mansard roof covering the fronts of the flab story. The estimated cost of the Temple is $1,000,000.

A grand banquet was given in the evening at the Astor House. The Death of William Gilmore Simms. South Carolina has Io3t a great man-one who earned a just distinction in every walk of literary life, who never faltered in his de? votion to the land which gave him birth whose pious care and masterly genius made of the past history of the South a living, breath? ing reality; who caused the manners and customs, the men and the women, "of the "good old times," to dwell with us again in the melodies of his verse and the romantic splendors of his prose. William Gilmore Simms, poet, historian and novelist, the veteran head of South Carolina literature, died in this city on Sat? urday last. To him the State and the whole South owe a debt of gratitude that cannot soon be paid.

At least let him live in his works, and in the kind thoughts and grateful remembrance ot the whole Southern people. The Death or Charles Dickens. Charles Dickens is dead; but the children of his brain-the cunning creations of a fer? tile imagination-will live as long as the English language is spoken among the na? tions of the earth. It matters little whether Charles Dickens was inspired by that genius-that divine afflatus-which is more easy to name than to whether his works were estheti? cally perfect; whether plot was compact and new; whether taste was faultless and the diction beyond compare. Charles Dickens is known upon the broad fo.ee of the universe.

Wherever the Saxon has hewed his way, in the virgin forests of the West, as in the centre of European civili? zation, the name of -Dickens is a familiar word, and his works are fondly loved. The thronging millions are his stronghold. Crit? ics may say, if they will, that Dickens is praised too loudly and Thackeray not enough, but Dickens has a thousand worshippers for ten who keenly relish the nf omi Dobbin, and Becky and the rest, will not soon forgotten; but Nell and Paul Dom? bey, Dora and Dot, Pickwick and Micawber, Oliver and David, and a host of others have become living, breathing types of our com? mon humanity. They are no abstractions. Ail of us know them in the flesh, or at least we think so.

Nor can it be said that Dickens had no high purpose in what he wrote. The man's heart was in his work. "What good he wrought-more than a myriad preachers could accomplish-can be realized by til ose only who are familiar with the sores a ii ulcers of modern English life. And long before his death, Dickens was already immortal. "With the Bible, and Shakespeare.

Dickens has entered into the soul of the English tongue. From Shakes? peare and Dickons are drawn a thousand tropes and metaphors; from them come burn? ing fancies and queer whose source is all forgotten; and though the very name of Dickens were lost, his joyous thoughts, pre? served in the umber of the words we speak, would still set their seal upon the minds of midions, still touch thc heart and quicken the pulse, bringing the happy smile to the smooth face of youth and the wrinkled cheek of age. A Notahle Gathering. Whatever the resulto! its deliberations, the assembling of the Reform Convention will be a memorable event in the political history the State. It may be taken as an active ex? pression of the general conviction that the time has come when we must put away all of the past that is unworthy of remembrance when wu must direct the public mind, in earnest, lo the erection or a new political fabric, whose corner-stone shall be tho is present, rather than the shadowy might have been.

The very fact that the convention will be held, is a subject of con? gratulation. It has been attacked in front und rear. The supporters of the Ring-the opeu aud concealed-have thrown cold water upon the movement from the very beginning. The same thing has been done by the "so? cial equality," shriekers, who declare that there is ouly one way of saving the State, and that by not doing anythiug that Reform? ers or Republicans desire to have done. The Scott party, also, have tilted at the conven? tion.

But their bullying and entreating are vain. Neither their money nor their blarney did them any good, or the convention any harm. Here and there an old leader of the white people is said to have made a secret bargain with the State officials. This paid well. But bla3t and counter-blast could not hold the people bock.

They made up their minds that they would have the convention, antTit meets, accordingly, in Columbia ou the day after to-morrow. That convention will represent seven-eights of the white peo? ple of the State, and a powerful minority of the colored voters. The object or the convention is thc secur? ing of united opposition to the corrupt ex. truvagance of the Scott Ring; and so unsel? fish is the movement that we are not aware that any delegation is pledged to any par? ticular man or any particular measure. What is demanded is a full and free discus? sion of the condition of the State, and of the best way to obtain an honest and economi? cal government This seems to be the main purpose of every delegate.

The low country, for instance, meets the up-country, not to bicker and quarrel, or to fight for political preferment, but to see what the hardy moun? taineers propose for the welfare of the State. There is on all sides a manifest wish that we may arrive at a harmonious decision, so that all South Carolina, with the same weapons, may enlist in the rauks of Reform. And, indeed, there is little room for differ? ences of opinion. The convention recog? nizes, by the terms of its call, the equal, civil and political rights of all citizens of the This knocks out the "patent in? nards" of tlie Radical party. Their post of vantage is lost.

Again, the convention, by the terms of its call, will consider the means of securing an honest, abie and economical government, which shall protect the rights of labor, encourage the influx of capital, and represent with fidelity all classes of the peo? ple. Thi3 is tlie kind of government that we have not and cannot have, while Scott is the minion of the honr; but it is the govern? ment that both workingman and capitalist must have, if they would rise from the ashes and prosper. Upon the question of nominating candi? dates for Governor and Lieutenant-Governor against the Radical nominees, there will be, in the beginning, some difference of opinion. But when it is understood, as it will be, that a nomination will not consolidate Radical? ism more than it is consolidated already tbRt it is useless to wait for a to make no nomination is to throw up th? sponge, and give up the political ghost-that uo bargain can be made with a Riog which never, save by accident, fails to break its word-that, without a nomination, the peo? ple will give up hope and try to find out whether the devil is as black as he is paint? ed-that Scott can be beat if we make up our mind3 to beat him; wo cannot'doubt that the nominations will be made. There may be some better plan, although we not; but unless some new light be thrown upon the subject, it is clear enoogh to us that a nomination is the only chance of safe? ty for the people.

An opposition candi? date of the right stamp, with the hearty help of the white can be elected. Governor of South Carolina. The conditions- are' few aud clear: 1. A strong candidate, unobjectionable to the masses, ready to work from morn to night until election day is over. 2.

The co-opera? tion of the whites-without which no candi? date, were he an angel, can compass a victory. Surely some one can be found who posses? ses the first named qualification; surely the whites and the blacks eau bo aroused to their common danger, and the necessity of unit? ing to save them and tlie State from ruin. Upon the answer or the convention to these questions, depends the whole fortune of South Carolina, Unless we make tlie trial we cannot secure a better government, and unless a better government be had, and that quickly, the people and the State are lost. THE Lancaster Ledger says that the white Radicals at Lancaster Courthouse have de? clared upon more than one occasion, that "they do not care a- for the They said they were "willing to submit to all "this degradation of eating and sleeping umilL imaraoc nntil fling hflil mailfiall the "money they could, then they intended to "pack up and leave for the But it seems to us that "packing up" time has about come. The Reform movement will put an end to stealing, and the occupation of the Ring, in this State, will be gone for? ever.

THE Columbia Phoenix says that Governor Scott has granted tho use of the hall of the House of Representatives to the State Con? vention which assembles on Wednesday. THE total vote in Lancaster Connty at the Congressional election was-Whittemore C75, and Dunn 100. (Ebiuational. ING'S MOUNTAIN MILITARY SCHOOL, YOKKVII.I.E, S. C.
