History is said to be philosophy teaching
by example, and if this be true and it doubt
less is. there is short lesson in regard to
the African Slave trade which it may not
be Improbable for this country 10 study at
this time. 1t is known that the slave trade
has long flourlsaed TO greater or less extent
on the Island OF Cuba. notwithstanding the
laws which strictly prohibit it.
But those who have investigated this sub
jet state that the encoura cement depends
almost entirely on the disposition of the Cap
tain General for the time being of that Island
The slave trade papers for 1916 report that
the Cuban slave trade was almost anni.;la-
ted under the administration of Captain Gen
eral Valdez, who j: appears. was honest and
sincere IN his efforts to suppress 1t. l. ap
pears. however, that the suppression of that
trade has been pr-judcial to the interests of
various parties. who have possessed con
trolling iutiaence in Spanisco politics, and
those who are too fsiIhful in enforcing the
laws against 1t are very apt to be summarily
recalled for mysterious reasons After Val
d had been supplanted by another General.
the trade sud Ieny revived, and soon attain
ed a height it had never reached before
With the historical fact clearly established
that the continuance or activity Of the Cuban
slave trade depends uTon the disposition of
the Captain General OF that Island, is it not
worth while TO consider how far parallel
case is presented in the recent landing Of
African slaves in Georgia by the Yacht
Nanierer, and how far the disposition Of the
Captain General of the United Safes, has
influenced the conduct of those engaged in
that efarious transaction.

him to his wife and child, on the 25th ult:
"Though now confined within these prison
walls, still have hopes that we again may
meet; that through executive clemency l
may again behold the dear scenes OF my boy
hoods homes; that may again see our child
and clasp its mother to my yearning heart;
and once more may feel thy warm kiss on
my lips, and read within thine eye affection
all untold; that l may know once more a
mothers dear coress, receive fathers wel-
come, and the embraces OF my sisters and my
brothers; to meet once more in joy around
the social hearth of my childhood's home; to
see the companions and playmates of my
youth, and hear their voices of welcome to
those dear familiar scenes; to bury my even
ing hours in Lethe's streams, and in future
live for thee and Heaven. But if stern fate
should decree, that l must die, hopeFthat
sve may meet amid the radiance Of eternal
homes. Ifso, then, all Is aoell,"
