When the descendants of Noah were moved
BY spirit Of arrogance 70 build up city and
tower the top of which should "reach unto
heaven God punished them by confounding
their languages, 30 that they should mot under
stand one another's speech Therefore is
the name Of it called Babel" And to-day, four
thousand and Eve score years afterwards, the
Spanish government is desirous to confound,
with different races and many languages, the
down-trodden people of Cuba, 50 as to smother
their noble aspirations and defeat their plans
to shake off the ignominious shackles which
chain their destinies to that despotic throne
Such is, in truth, the artful fallacy Of Spain I;
and her policy must, indeed, be obvious even
to the most skeptical who has observed the late
transactions in Cuba, which but echo Lord Pal
merston's scheme, dictated in London, which
was slightly modified by the Spanish CANA
ri1la at Madrid, and publicly proclaimed by
Captain General Pezuela, at Havana.
The system of colonization which Pezuela
has proclaimed in Cuba will bring into the
heart Of that country the most heterogeneous
mass that the world has ever seen amalgamated
inone compound. Indians, Europeans, Asiatics,
Africans, Chinese, and cannibals if necessary,
are to be freely introduced as apprentices The
object of this Babylonic colonization cannot be
hidden, nor, indeed, can it appear strange to
any one conversant with the history of the
cruel, nay, murderous misrule Of Spain, wher-
ever the iron heel of her hidalgos has polluted
the virgin soil of America, and they have
planted the Castilian Aag.
The Spanish government seems to have Just
discovered the fact that "union constitutes
strength and that this powerful revolutionary
element is developing itself in Cuba in most
frightful proportions SO much so, indeed, that
for her own safety she resorts to her favorite
maxim, the expedient Of all tyrants, I" diride
and conquer" and thus seeks to disunite in
order to prolong her rule in Cuba.
What else could have induced her to estab-
hsh the diabolical scheme Of introducing into
Cuba a heterogeneous mass of ignorant peo-
ple-diferent in race, color, habits, instincts.
