revive and enforce the barbarous decree which It now
he has promulgated. Something additional must
have occurred and the question is, What Is that ad-

nshed the pretex for this outrage upon cvilizs-
ton.

The following remarkable extract from that paper of the
9Th of April shows the grounds then taken:
But will the Union say that the island Of Cuba is in a
peacef Let it read the accounts in its columns
Tuesday and Has she not been for past in
daily the OF
our horesg Has she suffered incursons already hor
people killed and her dwelling by awless Has
been appzed by the public press and well apprzed
doubtless her agents that powerful expeditions have
preparation within borders for her invaon that
governors and eminent citizens engaged in them
that one military citizen had In readiness to be
mbodied and army Of three thousand i've hun
dred that large number of the largest steamers in
the had been priced and ready TO be transferred to the
service that dsaection and plots within the island
hadh NV in
In the United States? Does the Union know at least
from conon report that all this and is trueg And,
be true hold the island of Cuba to be in state of
peace and her authorities to whom its safety and defence
been nrusted be denied the cauonary privilege
visit interrogation in the waters Of her
which ordinary neghbohood patrol exercises against
ALL either high low without offence Because there has
been public proclamation of by her enemy must she
sit quietly until the muskety OF the invaders shall be heard
at midnight in her streetsf
Until Concha enlightened by the Inteigeneer, he
was not aware that there actually existing be-
tween the United States and Spain but being advised
by SO prominent American Journal it is not surprising
adopted its views and determined to act upon the
sumption that as war existed he might well notify all
Americans including consul of his purpose to enforce
the infamous authority originally given Pezuea- We
hope may out that the information of the Pcayune
incorrect but that such authority given Pezuea
doubt 1t does seem, however, that whilst the
tegncu is daily camoring against the horrors of
charging us and through us the administration with
purpose involve the country in hostities it is bent
upon preciptatng such catastrophe by the pertnaciy
with which encourages the Cuban authorities adopt
measures which but end in hoslities If Concha
perpetratcd the outrage described in the article from the
Picayune the best apology he find for win be in the
argument furnished him in the IncHgcncer.
