LETTER FROM GEN. TAYLOR.
II. TAYLOR,
Major General L. S. A.

The Memphis CTenn.) Eagle contains the fol-
lowing private letter, written by Gen. TAYLOR to
friend, who had called his attention to gross
ISLANDERS against him in the Memphis Appeal:
Baron RoUGE, (LA.) AUGUST 5, 1913.
MY DEAR SIR Your esteemed letter Of the eth ultmo,
enclosing slip cut from the sMemphis Appeal, this
moment received containing statements said to have been
made by disrespectul to the volunteers among Others
that had said they not north their rattoas, and that
this be proved together with many other evidences of
unkindness towards them my part all of which is without
the slightest foundation. There but little doubt my mind
that he who invents asehood nure his neighbor fell
low-czen well he who lends himself and aids in
giving circulation the same knowing to be false, would
hesitate moment to swear to the Holy Bible
My official reports the War Department rela-
ton the gallant and patriotic volunteers which have been
extensively published in of the leading public jour
mails of the country, give the lie direct to the statements in
question, and which the gentlemen of the Appeal might
have known, had they looked inch beyond their noses
wished to have made themselves acquainted with all the facts
the case, before they published gross SANDER regard
who had Injured them and whose only crime
that his name without his agency in the NATTER Mas
been brought before the country by portion of his fellow
citizens for the first Office the gift Of great and free people
AS to the romantic story about the wounded soldier Bue
VISTA Gin connexon with Mexican lady, which ended
ragicay, and who said to have been shot by my ORDERS
is without the slightest foundation. Nothing Of the kind
approaching it, took places 10 believe
heard of except Memphis and vicinity, before
published in the Appea" II par with the story
that had spoken dsrespeculy of and otherwise outraged
the volunteers; and base and heartless caluny
propagated. Not drop Of American blood shed
by my order while in Mexico, that of Mexican, except
in the heat Of battle.
The whole matter contained in said slip too silly to be
credied would have noticed ii had deemed il pro-
per to reply to your friendly communication.
must from my position, expect to be assaed by many
INSCRIPTIONS editors Of newspapers well hired dema
gogues, without regard to truth decency, any thing else
have therefore made up my mind not 10 sur such things
annoy me, let them from what quarter they may
but "pursue the Of my way" without turning
to the right to the left TO notice them.
With considerations Of higt respect and esteem, your
friend and obeJient servant, Y. TAYLOR.

New MExIco.-The Santa Fe Republican of
the 9th July, having just received the message of
Governor WooD, of Texas, in which he sets up a
paper claim to the best portion of New Mexico,
ridicules the pretension with great severity. 1t
says that Texas might as well have legisated a
claim to Louisiana as to any portion of New Mex
leo; that if Texan authorities attempt to govern
that country they will find themselves awfuly taken
in; and that New Mexico has population competent
to elect their own officers and make their own laws,
and never will consent to this unexpected and I'M
Just claim.

FROM CUBA.

The following (says the New Orleans Bulletin)
is extract of letter from highly intelligent and
observing foreigner who has been resident in Ha-
yana for long course of years:
Havana, AuGusT 6, 1913.
Here in point Of social and political position,
quiet enough for, although foolish young have
been plotting the south side Of the Island the great bulk
of the community satisfied that any movement would for
the present. be premature and lead to Of countries
castes, and coors, runous s and that will be prudent to
wait for the changes which negotiation a between the
United States and Europe will eventually bring about Con-
WINGED that their prosperity is altogether Dependant, cnyhe
maintenance Of slavery it is natural that their ASPIRATIONS
however concealed after annexation should be only with that
State which has the ympahe and interests and which
is likewise the only country sufficiently powerful to maintain
its domestic institutions against foreign interference
