of the intelligence which reaches the United

far wrong, however in asserting that any change in
the Spanish government will have very important
influence upon the absorbing question of the annex

island into possession at once, place almost
insuperable bar to the acquisition of it. We do not
doubt that the "fibusters' waited the proceedings

the fact that lately much doubt seems to exist in
relation to the willingness of Congress to make the
appropriation of $1O,00O,000 which the friends of

for the purchase of the Island The other day, the
