The KnelI of sranish RuIe in Cnha

If the intelligence from Cuba is truthful as reported
TO MS yesterday by telegraph-and disposed to
credit it alive predict that the knell oi Spanish do
minon in that island has sounded its first peal. The
fate Of those men who slaughtered will strike no
terror this side the gulf; but thousands Of incensed
spirits will rush to quick revenge upon the miser able
government that has outraged humanity, and placed
itself outside the pale OF Christian federation, by the
brutality with which il has distinguished that bloody
execution of our countrymen.
We can make no defence for the invaders from this
country. To do that we would have to counsel and
commend the nfracton Of national laws and Justify
the disruption OF all friendly relations with government
with which we are at peace All who have gone start
ed with their lives their hands-by the act they out
lawed themselves from the possibility OF defence from
their home government and comparatively forfeited the
sympathy of the people. But they have committed no
offence which deserved such a terrible Judgment They
forfeited life, If they invaders oil Cuban soil and
consprators against its political powers but they did
not forfeit the respect which humanity claims for hu-
manity In the treatment OF these victims to their
peror power Spanish authorities but emblazoncd the
chief phases Of Spanish hcharacterpotrooney and bru
tai cruelty. Against the outrages which they perpetra
ted upon the bodies of their bleeding victims Chrstan
ty, humanity, Gods Justice itself, revolt Every i'm
pulse Of enlightened nature makes indignant protest
against the internal spirit exhibited. Every impulse o
the American character will arouse for redress And
that shall hear OF towards the hostile
point which will bear down all opposition this side
of the Gulf and sweep through whatever formidable op
position the Island concentrates cannot wei
doubt.
The American character will not vindcate its owl
attributes if these things do not to pass. w,
know the fiery spirit and the oversweeping impulse o
our southern and western countrymen. We remember
we'll how they rushed to the Texan struggle-how
when subsequently Mexican forces rioted and reveled il
the blood of those who contended for its freedom, the,
marched the rescue Of weakness and to the revenge
Of cowardly cruelty. - $50.
And how are the Powers at Washington to act in thi
exigencyl An American vessel fired upon-stoppc,
and boarded in hostile manner by Spanish man-oi

explanation be demanded! We will bide the time

bodies can conjecture with confidence In the mean
time the public mind will wait mpaently for events a

We clip the following from the New York Tribune.
Our readers will how the Editor for the de-
feat of MGaughey. He fails, however, to inform his
readers that John G. Davis the successful candidate for
